“Safety is never done on Twitch”: why the streaming giant is gearing up to protect streamers
Disclaimer: As a Twitch affiliate, Twitch occasionally gives me money. Or they would, if I streamed more than once or twice a year. Twitch really seems to give a shit. That was the main takeaway from TwitchCon Amsterdam 2022, my first big in-person event post pandemic. After years of doing this job from the corner of my kitchen it was great to see people out enjoying themselves, coming together and – because it’s TwitchCon – livestreaming every second of their convention experience. Yet, it felt like a friendly and inclusive community in the halls.

Defender Jules gives honest reflection on Dons’ defeat to Bolton
MK Dons 0-2 Bolton Wanderers
Some home truths and honest conversations need to be had in the MK Dons dressing room to address their latest slump, said defender Zak Jules after the 2-0 defeat to Bolton Wanderers.
Suffering their third defeat in a row, one which sees Liam Manning’s side drop to 22nd in League One, was compounded by the fact Bolton barely had to work for their goals either - scoring first from the penalty spot when Dawson Devoy fouled Gethin Jones to allow Dion Charles to convert, before Jones then headed in Jack Iredale’s free-kick on the hour mark. The last six goals Dons have conceded have come from set-pieces.
While it is still early in the season, with 38 games still to be played, Jules, who stepped into the side ahead of captain Dean Lewington, said there needs to be some soul-searching and honest conversations had to come up with a solution sooner rather than later.
Most Popular
He said: “We can't just let games pass us by and take part for the sake of taking part or we'll find ourselves in a tricky situation.
“I feel like we have to go back on the training pitch, put in the hard work and take a hard look at ourselves. We can't sugar-coat things - it's easy to pass the blame.
“When you go out on the pitch, if all 11 players do what they're meant to, chances are you win. We need to look at that and hopefully improve for the next game.”
On the game, he continued: “It was a really tough one to take. It's where we seem to be at at the moment. I feel like we showed glimpses of quality and good play, but we let conceding goals affect us too much at the moment.
“We can't keep letting that happen - you can't have the perfect game, things won't always go your way. You have to grind results out in this league and we're showing a softness at the moment. But it's up to us to turn it around.
“When you come up against a team who cuts you open, you can think 'fair enough' but to concede from a penalty and then a set-piece again, it's more frustrating.
“It's the basics to defend set-pieces and you have the basis to go on and win. If we get that right, at least you walk away with a clean sheet and a draw. Then we can start looking at the other part of it.
“But it wasn't good enough in that sense.”

Green mobility to play key role in India's decarbonisation: NITI CEO Iyer
According to a recent report prepared by NITI Aayog and Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) India, banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) have the potential to achieve electric vehicle financing market size of Rs 40,000 crore by 2025 and Rs 3.7 lakh crore by 2030.
New Delhi: Green mobility is going to play a major role in decarbonisation of India's transport sector, NITI Aayog CEO Parameswaran Iyer said on Wednesday. Iyer, while addressing an event organised by the 'Shoonya Forum', noted that the role of financing is critical for scaling of electric mobility in India.
He also stressed on the need of finding ways to reduce risks associated with financing of electric vehicles.
Pointing out that the rural India is urbanising rapidly, the NITI Aayog CEO said there is a need to push electric vehicles in smaller cities also.
According to a recent report prepared by NITI Aayog and Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) India, banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) have the potential to achieve electric vehicle financing market size of Rs 40,000 crore by 2025 and Rs 3.7 lakh crore by 2030.
The report had also stressed that lending by banks and NBFCs for buying EVs should be included in the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) priority-sector lending (PSL) guidelines.
Priority sector lending aims to expand financial access and support employment opportunities in India.
To meet these goals, the report had suggested that the RBI might consider various EV segments and use cases based on five parameters -- socio-economic potential, livelihood generation potential, scalability, techno-economic viability, and stakeholder acceptability.
Vedanta obtained financial and non-financial subsidies including on capital expenditure and cheap electricity from Gujarat to build the semiconductor plants, the first source with knowledge of the matter said.
Among the three bidders, RIL has made the highest offer - of around ₹1,960 crore - to lenders, and most of the money would be paid upfront, one of the persons cited above said. If RIL emerges as the winning bidder, it would mark the conglomerate's entry into coal-based power production.

Emotional moment Chelsea Pensioner who cooked for The Queen breaks down in tears at Buckingham Palace - as his reflection on her legacy reminds him of his wife's death from Alzheimer's
A brokenhearted Chelsea pensioner who once cooked for the Queen joined crowds gathered at Buckingham Palace to mourn Queen Elizabeth II yesterday as people from all over the world came to pay tribute to the beloved monarch.
Archie Ferguson, 84, was brought to tears after arriving at the palace to pay his respects as the death of the Queen reminded him of his wife's 10-year battle with Alzheimer's.
He said he was 'glad' that she had passed away having been able to carry out her duties so recently, and did not suffer during a long battle with a serious illness.
People from all generations and walks of life descended on the palace to leave floral tributes, light candles and simply be together as they looked for reassurance following the monarch's loss.
A queue to pass by the palace gates and pay tribute to the Queen extended several hundred metres up the road, and mourners were spotted crying, hugging one another or even just watching on the momentous occasion.
Chelsea Pensioner Mr Ferguson said he's feeling all the 'ups and downs' of losing a Queen he knew personally and cherished.
He served in the military for 23 years and travelled all over the world, catering for the armed forces in Germany, the Middle East, Cyprus, Kenya and Singapore.
He told MailOnline Queen Elizabeth always appeared interested and well researched when she came to visit the Royal Chelsea Hospital, his home.
'She's beautiful,' he said through tears. 'I think my favourite memory was coming to the garden party here. I cooked supper for her... It was good.'
Mr Ferguson said he recently experienced the slow decline of his wife's health as an Alzheimer's sufferer and nursed her for 10 years, so took comfort in the apparent swiftness of the Queen's death.
The 'peaceful' death of Queen Elizabeth II was announced at 6.30pm last night, after doctors had initially expressed 'concern' for her health.
Ms Ferguson said: 'For someone to die quickly, it's brilliant.
'She was introduced to the new prime minister a couple of days ago and was fully with it... [so] I was glad for her. It was obvious she was getting near the end of her journey here.'
Mr Ferguson was at home at the Royal Chelsea Hospital with his friend, Alan, when they first learned the Queen was unwell and followed the updates for hours until the announcement of her death.
They instantly knew the palace was where they wanted to be.
'I'm feeling up and down,' he said, tearing up again. 'It's sad. It's a very precious place to come to. The nation wants to be here.'
He also marvelled at the moving scenes as thousands arrived outside the palace.
'We usually get paraded and directed. This is real. This is just spontaneous.'
While the grounds were teeming with people, there was a knowing silence among mourners as they placed bouquets of flowers and handwritten notes at the gates of the palace.
Messages of support and condolences were pinned to the flowers, reflecting on the Monarch's 'dedication, dignity' and legacy as a symbol of hope and stability in uncertain times.
A child's drawing of the Queen wearing her crown was tucked among the handwritten cards and flowers, as was a Ukrainian flag.
Multiple generations came together to mourn the Queen's loss. Maurine Nicholson, 70, travelled down to London with her family from Nottingham and Yorkshire yesterday to watch ABBA's reunion concert.
Stood outside Buckingham Palace's main gates, she said she was left 'shocked' by the news.
'It's very sad. It's come so quick.
'We came down yesterday for the Abba concert and then when she died it was definitely sad.
'We felt as if we had to pay our respects.'
Ms Nicholson had not even turned one when Queen Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953, but her love of the monarch was clear: 'I'm a big royalist. She meant stability, someone to look up to, aspire to.'
She even met the Queen during celebrations for her Silver Jubilee, when Ms Nicholson was 25.
'I only met her once on a walkabout. She came over to me and spoke to me and she was just a normal person. It was so lovely.
'You wouldn't think she was the Queen. She was amazing. I was giving some flowers to her actually and we spoke about the flowers. It was amazing.'
Her daughter Rebecca Harris, 32, was equally upset by the tragic news: 'It's a shock and it's sad, she's always been there hasn't she.
'She just held herself with so much dignity and class, and I just don't think you see that anymore.
'She was a great head of state.'
Ms Harris described how the four of them were preparing to leave for the ABBA concert when they heard the news: 'We were all in the room and we were about to leave.
'We all just talk a moment. We actually did a little toast to her. What a great Queen. We were all a bit emotional.'
The family said a minute's silence was also held at the concert in memory of the monarch's life.
Buckingham Palace today asked emotional well-wishers to redirect floral tributes to Green Park and Hyde Park instead, while local florists sold out of bouquets as tens of thousands flocked to pay their respects.
Tearful mourners, many dressed all in black, congregated beside hundreds of colourful bouquets and messages at the central London palace, which had been left overnight and early in the morning.
A large Union flag in tones of black and grey has been pinned to the right flank of the gates, while police officers kept a crowd back from the main gates further to the left.
25-year-old Madison Mussio from Ontario, Canada, broke down in tears as she approached Buckingham Palace on the Mall.
Dressed all in black and carrying flowers, she told MailOnline that four generations of her family have known her as their head of state.
She studied law and moved to the UK recently, and felt as if she had to pay her respects on behalf of her whole family.
'It was extremely important to come to say goodbye to the Queen. She was a symbol of tradition and a symbol of love.
'She's almost like a part of the family to us.
'I'm representing my family, I was in the area so I thought I should come. It's so sad.
She was loved by everyone.
'We all loved her.'
Floral tributes are filling up the grounds outside Buckingham Palace, with many leaving candles, balloons or personal cards to the family too.
One tribute read: 'HM Queen Elizabeth II. Thank you for being our strength.' Another simply said: 'We will miss you.'
Anu, who recently moved from the West Coast of America to the UK, was in disbelief that the Queen had passed away.
'She's just been a constant,' she said. 'Even those of us who haven't lived here or aren't British, it seems like the end of an era.
'It's a poignant moment from our collective history and I wanted to be here.'
She was deeply moved by the number of people in the crowd. Tearing up, she said: 'Look around you at the amount of people, the silence.
'You can almost feel the weight of this moment here. You can't be in London and not have some way to commemorate it .
'It's very powerful. I can only imagine what this means to the people who have always lived in the United Kingdom. I feel such a sense of loss. That's her legacy.'
She described the palace as a 'visually powerful place to be', adding: 'It felt right to just be part of this memorial here. It's something extraordinary.
'There's such a sombreness here, it's so sombre and poignant. It's really remarkable to be here and celebrate this woman who has touched so many hearts across countries, across borders.
She saw some of the greatest advances probably in humanity, the highs, the lows, to be the constant through all of that I think it's pretty remarkable.
'People have come from all over the world, different walks of life, and we're all here.'
To some, the Queen was more than just a figurehead: she was an 'icon'.
Anna Vince-Jillings, 22, said: 'I think its quite important to pay our respects to the Queen.
'She was an icon. She ruled 70 years, with 15 Prime Ministers.
'She was a part of England.'
She described babysitting at the time the news broke, and trying to explain what had happened to the children, aged five and seven.
'I was looking after some kids at the time. I said to them, 'The Queen's just passed away.'
'We watched a tribute to the Queen together. The five-year-old said: 'I want a Queen.'
'But the boy, who is seven, was more like: 'Let's have a King.'
Bruce and Donna Jeffery, both 71, arrived in London from Ontario, Canada, to news of the Queen's passing. Even though they're not British, they wanted to pay their respects as citizens of a Commonwealth country.
The couple are celebrating their own 50th wedding anniversary today and have spent two years trying to travel to the UK amid the Covid pandemic. They never imagined they'd be standing at the palace gates during such a momentous part of history.
'We weren't here for the Jubilee, we watched it on the TV… It's very sombering this, very different,' they said as they looked around at the crowds gathered at the palace.
An emotional King Charles III emerged for the first time today as Britain's new monarch as he left Balmoral to address the nation just hours after the death of his beloved mother.
Both the King and his Queen Consort Camilla were visibly upset as they left the Scottish estate on a poignant journey to London just before 11.30am this morning.
Charles and his wife stayed at Balmoral overnight after racing up to be at the bedside of the Queen, whose death was announced to the nation yesterday evening.
Dressed in his mourning clothes of a black suit and tie, looking sombre, the grief-stricken King Charles boarded a plane from Aberdeen Airport to the capital, which took off at 12.30pm.
This afternoon, he will meet Prime Minister Liz Truss before making a televised statement to the nation at 6pm.
Charles has already turned his hand to his duties as monarch despite his grief. He gave the order that a period of 'Royal Mourning' for the Queen will be observed from now until seven days after her funeral.
Royal Mourning will be observed by members of the royal family, royal household staff and representatives of the royal Household on official duties, together with troops committed to ceremonial duties.
Meanwhile, Buckingham Palace said today that the King will be proclaimed at the Accession Council at 10am on Saturday in the State Apartments of St James's Palace. It will be televised for the first time in history.
Members of the royal family had made the urgent dash to be with the frail monarch as her health failed yesterday.
Prince William - now using the title of the Duke of Cornwall and Cambridge - left Balmoral just before 1pm and is travelling back to Windsor to be with his family ahead of the Accession Council, Kensington Palace said.
Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and his wife Sophie, the Countess of Wessex, still remain at the estate.
A Buckingham Palace source told MailOnline: 'King Charles must return to London to attend to matters of state. But the other senior royal will spend a day of quiet reflection at Balmoral Castle.'
Charles and Camilla were driven away from the estate this morning in a grey Audi saloon and followed by their protection team in a Land Rover.
He yesterday paid tribute to the Queen, describing her as a 'cherished Sovereign and much-loved Mother' as he was confirmed as Britain's new monarch.
He will now be known by the regnal name of King Charles III, Clarence House has confirmed.

Demi Lovato may be over tour life as she says her current tour, Holy Fvck Tour, which is in support of her eighth studio album, will be her last. The tour began a month ago in Des Moines, with the most recent being scheduled in Santiago, Chile.
Taking to Instagram Stories, the Neon Lights singer wrote that she can't do this anymore. She said the next tour will be her last. Lovato also said she barely has a voice and she will be pointing the mic to the audience a lot. But she did not reveal any more details about her illness and since then has deleted the Instagram Stories. This sent "Lovatics" abuzz on social media.
One fan tweeted that Demi Lovato means the whole world to him/her, but everytime Lovato goes on tour there is an awful feeling that it's not good for them mentally or physically. The fans just want the Heart Break singer to be happy and healthy. Another fan used the hash tag #WeLoveYouDemiâ "We love you Demi, you are not alone. Remember that you and your health is above everything." Fans highlighted that they forget how much trauma Demi Lovato has been through. "We forget how heavy day to day life is for them."
Demi Lovato Has Been Struggling
The last few years have been tumultuous for Lovato. In 2018, she had a near-fatal overdose which caused the singer to suffer three strokes and a heart attack. Since then, Lovato maintained a sober lifestyle but continued to drink alcohol and smoke weed in moderation. Then in 2021, the Unbroken singer announced that she was "completely sober". Lovato shared that going sober for good was the only way for her to live a healthy lifestyle.
Last month, she opened up about the emotional and physical she has endured in the entertainment industry. Lovato shared an incident when an unnamed member on her team told her that she wasn't "sick enough" to seek treatment after she explained that she was "throwing up blood". The singer thought that it was his way of saying that "No, you're not going back to treatment because if you do, this will look bad on me."
Drug Addiction
Earlier this year, Lovato completed another stint in rehab. In December 21, she wrote on Instagram Stories that "I no longer support my California sober ways. Sober, sober is the only way to be. The singer posted a shaved head photo which appeared to be taken at the rehab facility â representing a "fresh start". After the near-fatal overdose in 2018, Lovato detailed the incident in YouTube documentary series â sharing with fans the grip their addiction had on them, from using meth and heroin to now having to receive injections to prevent from getting high.
The singer started experimenting with drugs at the age of 13 after she was prescribed opiates for injuries she sustained in a car accident. Lovato explained that she had been bullied and was looking for an escape. But her mom saw how many pills had disappeared and how fast they did, and locked it away. The singer said that throughout her teens she got certain kinds of pills, and also stole her mom's Xanax. She tried coke for the first time at age 17 and loved it too much. She went for treatment after she turned 18 following the release of Disney Channel movie Camp Rock.
Now she has come up with her eighth consecutive top 10, which went onto becoming the highest debut of the week on the album chart Holy Fvck. This is Lovato's first album since 2021's Dancing With the Devil â The Art of Starting Over.
Lovato is to be on the road until November 6 when the tour wraps up at the Toyota Music Factory in Irving, Texas.

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

A new car showroom is set to replace a recently demolished century-old Launceston home, according to development plans currently open for public consultation.
Earlier this year, the 1900s home on Wellington Street - which was previously listed on the 2007 Heritage Study list of Places of Local Significance for Launceston - was demolished.
Now, new designs set to come before the City of Launceston council outline plans for a Jackson SsangYong and Volkswagen dealership on the site.
Currently, there is the Jackson Motor Company on Wellington Street, which is one of several dealerships across Tasmania owned by Errol Stewart.
The house and land sold for around $670,000 in January this year.
Before construction can begin, however, the location will need to be approved for demolition of existing workshop and construction of a new showroom and replacement of signage, as well as change of use from residential to bulky goods sales
The public notice for this development is open for comment until Wednesday, September 21.

'Four Of Us Cannot Be Fabricated', FLOBW's Neelam Kothari On Claims That Their Show Is Scripted
The Fabulous Lives Of Bollywood Wives series explores the lives of four best friends, Maheep Kapoor, Neelam Kothari, Bhavana Pandey, and Seema Sajdeh, as they mix family and careers while being brutally honest and unafraid to defy stereotypes.
This season had a lot of drama, as expected, ranging from divorces, broken relationships, Neelam's daring avatar, on-screen intimacies to a quick excursion to see some wildlife.
Jump To
Neelam Kothari Claims The Show Is Not Scripted
Many others, however, believe that the show is contrived. To clear the air, Neelam Kothari recently spoke with Pinkvilla about it.
Neelam said, “What comes out of the four of us cannot be staged or fabricated. If that were the case, then all four of us would need an Oscar. It cannot be staged or scripted.”
She further added, “Some situations are probably planned that ‘ok, you're going here for lunch.’ But what’s gonna be the discussion, how it’s going to pan out, that is in no one's hand. So no, the show isn’t scripted at all.”
Neelam On The Criticism Received For The Show
The show's supporter and filmmaker Karan Johar recognised that it was "cringeworthy" but nonetheless enjoyable in a post about the performance, which the audience has described as "cringy."
In response to those who were criticising the show, the actress commended her staff for putting themselves out there. She said I can only say that we made an effort, and it was successful. We put ourselves out there, and we deserve credit.
Although the four are very different, they all share a combination of maturity and wildness in their own distinct ways. Neelam, the humble and elegant doll, has become much more lively and bright this season. She was fiercely opposed to on-screen kissing, but things are changing now that she has approved of it in a new Zoya Akhtar film.

It is just what makes it possible to effectively coach teams, perform stress, deliver views, and you can collaborate with people.
It’s called mental cleverness, and you will makes up about almost 90 percent regarding what set high painters apart from co-workers with the same tech experiences and you will studies.
What exactly is Psychological Cleverness?
Emotional cleverness means the ability to understand and you may manage the thoughts, in addition to admit and you will influence brand new attitude of those as much as your. The expression was first created inside the 1990 of the scientists John Mayer and you may Peter Salovey, however, is actually later promoted from the psychologist Daniel Goleman.
Over a decade ago, Goleman highlighted the importance of psychological cleverness in leadership, advising the Harvard Company Review, “A frontrunners are the same in one single very important ways: Each of them has actually a top degree of what has come so you can become labeled as mental intelligence. It isn’t one to IQ and you can technology knowledge was irrelevant. They are doing matter, but. these are the entry-height criteria to have manager positions.”
Historically, mental cleverness-known as EQ-has changed towards recommended-have skill. Research of the EQ vendor TalentSmart shows that psychological intelligence is the strongest predictor off results. And you may employing professionals have taken observe: 71 % of businesses interviewed of the CareerBuilder said they worth EQ over IQ, reporting one to professionals with high psychological cleverness are more likely to be calm under great pressure, care for conflict effectively, and you may answer co-specialists that have empathy.

To enhance an educated in other people, you first need to create from finest in oneself, that is in which mind-sense will be. One easy way to evaluate your self-feeling is via doing 360-knowledge opinions, where you check your own overall performance after which matches it resistant to the opinions of the workplace, peers, and you will direct records. From this processes, you’ll obtain insights in the own decisions and watch how you might be perceived in the team.
2. Self-Management
Self-government is the ability to take control of your feelings, particularly in stressful issues, and maintain a positive frame-of-mind despite setbacks. Frontrunners which use up all your worry about-management commonly work and get a tougher time keeping their signals down.
An effect is automatic. The greater number of into the tune you’re together with your mental cleverness, not, the easier you possibly can make the newest changeover out of reaction to reaction. You will need to make sure to stop, breathe, assemble yourself, and you can create anything to manage how you feel-if that implies taking a walk or calling a friend-in order to so much more rightly and you can purposefully respond to worry and you may hardship.
3. Social Awareness
While it is vital that you learn and you will manage your own ideas, be sure to understand simple tips to comprehend a-room. Societal feeling relates to your capability to recognize others’ feelings therefore the dynamics for the enjoy inside your company.
Leadership exactly who do well for the public good sense practice sympathy. They make an effort to learn the colleagues’ feelings and you will perspectives, which enables these to express and you can collaborate more effectively with the peers.

Republican U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham proposed new national restrictions on abortion on Tuesday, two months before the Nov. 8 midterm elections in which the abortion issue has emerged as potential albatross for Republican candidates.
With control of the Senate up for grabs, and some jittery Republican candidates softening their positions on abortion, Graham announced legislation that would ban the procedure after 15 weeks of pregnancy nationwide.
The move carries political risks. Polls have shown the issue of abortion has increased in importance for Democratic voters in the midterms after the U.S. Supreme Court in June overturned the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that had recognized women’s constitutional right to abortion for nearly half a century.
In a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted Sept. 7-12, 63% of respondents said they were less likely to back candidates who support laws that ban or severely restrict abortion.
Graham’s bill, which will go nowhere in the Democratic-controlled Congress, is stricter than similar legislation he introduced in previous years that aimed to ban abortions after 20 weeks. The current bill allows exceptions in cases involving rape, incest or risks to the mother’s life and health.
The bill quickly came under fire from Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who played on Graham’s allegiance to former President Donald Trump by branding the bill as a “MAGA” measure, using the acronym for Trump’s slogan, “Make America Great Again.”
“Proposals like the one today send a clear message from MAGA Republicans to women across the country: your body, our choice,” Schumer said on the Senate floor.
Abortion rights advocates have scored political victories in the aftermath of the Supreme Court decision, which paved the way for a raft of state-level abortion bans to be enforced.
Democrat Pat Ryan defeated a Republican rival in a House special election last month after making abortion his top campaign issue. In conservative Kansas, voters overwhelmingly rejected an effort to remove abortion protections from the state’s constitution.
Democrats are now hoping to use the abortion issue to capitalize on Republican weaknesses in some House and Senate races.
Republicans are favored to take control of the House in November but could have a harder time regaining the Senate majority, as Trump-endorsed candidates struggle in key swing states including Arizona, Georgia, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
Some Republican candidates, including Senate hopeful Blake Masters in Arizona, have gone so far as to change their campaign websites to eliminate hardline rhetoric on abortion, according to U.S. media reports.

Following the teaser trailer for the live-action version of Disney's The Little Mermaid, parents of young Black girls are posting videos across social media of their children's reactions to seeing Halle Bailey as Ariel.
"I wanna watch it!" a girl says in a video posted by TikTok user Adelia Chaiyakul.
"Mommy! ... She's brown like me!" says a girl in another TikTok.
Many similar videos have been shared across social media since the teaser trailer was released on Friday, with hashtags such as #representationmatters and #Blackgirlmagic. The trailer has surpassed 12 million views.
Disney first unveiled a sneak peek of its live-action adaptation of the 1989 animated film at its D23 Expo. In the video, fans get a brief look at Bailey, an actress and singer from the R&B duo Chloe x Halle, playing the lead role of Ariel.
In addition to Bailey, the film features actor Daveed Diggs as the voice of Sebastian, Melissa McCarthy as Ursula, Javier Bardem as Triton, Jacob Tremblay as Flounder, and Awkwafina as Scuttle.
In an interview with Variety, Bailey, 22, addressed the backlash towards her casting in the lead role. Some on social media have used the hashtag #NotMyAriel to say that casting a Black actress goes against the original Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, which was originally published in Denmark in 1837. In the wake of that, Bailey said that her grandparents offered her some perspective.
"It was an inspiring and beautiful thing to hear their words of encouragement, telling me, 'You don't understand what this is doing for us, for our community, for all the little Black and brown girls who are going to see themselves in you,'" Bailey said.
"I want the little girl in me and the little girls just like me who are watching to know that they're special and that they should be a princess in every single way," she added.
k i just sobbed watching this thanks 😭💕she’s so sweet ❣️🥹 https://t.co/jKKdHkOvDe
— Halle (@HalleBailey) September 11, 2022
The original animated 1989 film tells the story of a young mermaid, Ariel, who falls in love with a human prince. In order to win him over, she makes a deal with a sea witch named Ursula to become a human.
The Little Mermaid is set to be released in theaters on May 26, 2023.

Hong Kong ’s Bay Area Dragons and Blackwater Bossing kick off actions in Commissioner Cup
GUEST team Bay Area Dragons of Hong Kong and rejuvenated Blackwater Bossing kick off hostilities on Wednesday at the Mall of Asia (MOA) Arena as the PBA Commissioner’s Cup returns from its pandemic-forced absence.
The Dragons, reinforced by NBA veteran Andrew Nicholson and 7-foot-5 Chinese Liu Chuanxing, plunge into action in its maiden PBA stint right away at 3 p.m. in the opener of a double-header marking the first Commissioner’s Cup play since 2019.
The Cameron Krutwig-led Bossing, the Philippine Cup quarterfinalists who are back on track after a horrible 29-game losing skid, get first crack in an official game at the Dragons, who went on a tear in their pre-tournament tuneups.
The second match features a Phoenix Super LPG squad starting a new chapter minus former franchise player Matthew Wright against NorthPort at 5:45 p.m.
Day 2 swings to the PhilSports Arena on Sept. 23 for an explosive twin bill that serves as the league’s homecoming to its old haunt.
Converge debuts new coach Aldin Ayo at 3 p.m. versus Terrafirma, a franchise that actually gave him his first break as its video coordinator in 2014.
This is followed by the quick matchup between Yeng Guiao and NLEX just weeks after parting ways. Mr. Guiao’s current squad, Rain or Shine, dukes it out with his old Road Warriors charges and his former deputy Adonis Tierra in the 5:45 p.m. mainer.
Set for battles in the meet’s opening weekend at the MOA Arena are the Dragons against the Batang Pier and the Fuel Masters and the Bossing on Sept. 24 and debuting Meralco and Barangay Ginebra versus NLEX and Converge, respectively on Sept. 25.
All-Filipino semifinalist Magnolia launches its bid on Sept. 28 against the Dyip at the MOA Arena while the two finalists from the recent Philippine Cup, champion San Miguel Beer and runner-up TNT, hit the court on Oct. 5 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum. The Beermen begin their quest for back-to-back versus the Bossing while the Tropang Giga start off against the Hotshots.
With an expanded field of 13, the Commissioner’s Cup eliminations will run until Nov. 27 with the Ynares Center in Antipolo also set to host six playdates.
The schedules of the Dragons, the Beermen and the Tropang Giga have been set to fit in their forays in the East Asia Super League that commences in October. — Olmin Leyba

‘This was horrific’ – SA president on collapsed dam wall at disused diamond mine
One person died, while four are still missing following the accident, which also caused massive destruction of property and loss of animals.
"This was horrific. This was really horrific," Ramaphosa was quoted as saying by News24 as he visited the affected area.
He promised the affected residents that Pretoria will prioritise assisting those whose homes and belongings were destroyed by the deluge.
"We are going to investigate, but for now let us focus on restoring the livelihoods of our people here with immediate effect,” said Ramaphosa.
“This includes businesses. We are also going to look into whose businesses have been affected and how we are going to support [them]."
Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy Gwede Mantashe had previously said compensation for fatalities and damage to property will be the responsibility of the company that owns the slimes dam.
De Beers sold the mine and tailings in 2010 to Superkolong Consortium, which comprised black investors.

Film Study: Jalen Brunson brings off-the-dribble success to New York
It’s been a long time.
The last time the New York Knicks had a league-average-or-better offense was 2013-14, when their starting point guard was Raymond Felton. They haven’t really been close since then, having scored at least 1.1 fewer points per 100 possessions than the league average in each of the last eight seasons. And the Knicks are one of two teams — the Orlando Magic (10 straight years) are the other — that have ranked in the bottom 10 in Offensive efficiency in each of the last four years.
A year ago, the Knicks attempted to upgrade their offense by adding two guards — Evan Fournier and Kemba Walker — in free agency. It didn’t work, and the team actually took a step backward offensively while seeing a bigger drop-off on defense. After finishing fourth in the East in 2020-21, the Knicks finished six games out of the Play-In Tournament chase.
This year, the Knicks are trying again. Fournier is still around, but Walker has been replaced by 26-year-old Jalen Brunson, one of the most efficient pick-and-roll scorers in the league.
Here are some notes, numbers and film on what Brunson brings to the Big Apple…
1. Efficiency inside the arc
Over the last two seasons, Brunson has scored 1.07 points per possession as a pick-and-roll ball-handler. That mark ranks third among 113 players with at least 250 ball-handler possessions over the last two seasons, according to Synergy play-type tracking.

Minimum 250 possessions (113 players)
via Synergy tracking
The other players in that top five are top-tier superstars. Brunson is right there among them and there’s actually room for improvement.
Note that Brunson’s field goal percentage on pick-and-roll ball-handler possessions is higher (by a pretty healthy margin) than the other four players in the top five. It is also the highest of all 113 players with at least 250 ball-handler possessions over the last two years. While the other four players in that top five each had higher free throw rates and 3-point rates, Brunson’s off-the-dribble success mostly came with 2-point shots.
Of his 412 pull-up jumpers last season, 332 (81%) were 2-point attempts. That was the 25th highest rate among 171 players who attempted at least 100 pull-ups in total. His 48.5% on pull-up 2-pointers was well above the league average (41.2%) and ranked 14th among 114 with at least 100 attempts.
Chris Paul is the king of the short pull-up. In each of the last three seasons, he’s been the only player to shoot 52% or better on at least 400 pull-up 2-point attempts. And Brunson can sometimes look like a Lefty CP3, snaking around a pick to get to a space where he can get his shot…
But (at this point in their careers) Brunson is better at getting all the way to the basket than Paul …
And he’s got moves if he’s stopped before he gets all the way there …
If Brunson can draw some more fouls and turn some of those 2s into 3-pointers, he can be even more efficient. But Brunson’s 31.3% on pull-up 3s was below the league average (32.8%) and ranked just 71st among 105 players with at least 75 attempts. In the playoffs, he was just 9-for-32 (28%) on pull-up 3s, 20th among 29 players with at least 20 attempts.
He doesn’t look uncomfortable shooting pull-up 3s …
But the results aren’t there yet.
Even with some improvement beyond the arc, Brunson will have to prove that he can remain as efficient off the dribble at a higher volume. Playing with Luka Doncic, they averaged just 4.4 ball-handler possessions per game over the last two seasons. His 5.0 ball-handler possessions per game last season ranked just 42nd among players who played at least 35 games.
With Doncic out, Brunson averaged 32 points over the first three games of the Mavs’ first-round series against the Utah Jazz. And in doing that, he scored 41 points on 30 pick-and-roll ball-handler possessions (1.37 per), according to Synergy.
We’ll see if he gets that much usage in New York. Overall, Brunson was less efficient when he was on the floor without Doncic (true shooting percentage of 56.4%, counting regular season and playoffs) than he was when they were on the floor together (59.2%).
If Brunson takes some ball-handler possessions away from RJ Barrett, that would probably be good for the Knicks overall. Barrett should improve, but his 0.77 points per ball-handler possession over the last two seasons ranks 105th among those 113 players with at least 250 possessions (just below former Knick Elfrid Payton). And he’s actually averaged more ball-handler possessions per game (5.5) than Brunson (4.4).
2. A safe Distributor
Over the last three seasons, Brunson has averaged 5.5 assists per 36 minutes, a rate which ranks 59th among 337 players who’ve played at least 2,000 minutes over those three years. He’s not Threading many needles or making many highlight reels with his passes. And his lack of size (he’s 6-foot-1) can be a detriment in regards to getting the ball to an open teammate on the other side of the floor.
But he doesn’t make many dangerous passes, either. With that, Brunson had the fifth highest assist/turnover ratio (3.04) among the 109 players with a usage rate of 20% or higher last season.
Most of his assists come via simple passes, but his ability to turn the corner can create advantages, and he’s quick to recognize the open man…
While Brunson averaged 4.78 seconds per touch (32nd among 341 players with at least 1,000 touches), he’s not a ball-stopper, willing to keep it moving if a teammate has more space to shoot than he does…
Brunson ranked 18th in the league with 13.6 drives per game, more than anyone on the Knicks (Barrett led the team with 12.8). He passed on 41.7% of his drives, a rate above the league average (39.2%).
Only the Jazz (60%) took a lower percentage of their 3-point attempts off the catch than the Knicks (63%) did last season. So his new team can certainly use Brunson’s ability to create some additional off-the-catch looks. Among 98 players with at least 75 catch-and-shoot 3-point attempts and 75 pull-up 3-point attempts, Barrett had the 11th biggest differential between his catch-and-shoot accuracy (36.8%) and his pull-up accuracy (25.3%). That latter mark was the third worst among 105 total players with at least 75 pull-up 3-point attempts.
3. Off the ball
As noted above, Brunson was better, but still below the league average on pull-up 3-pointers, connecting on just 31.3% of his. But he shot 69-for-172 (40.1%) on catch-and-shoot 3s. And he was the only player who shot 50% or better (he was 38-for-76) on at least 75 corner 3-point attempts last season.
Julius Randle may need to cede some control of the offense with the addition of Brunson. But the presence of Randle allows Brunson to play some off the ball, a situation in which he should be comfortable, having played 54% of his minutes alongside Doncic last season. While Randle is a ball-stopper, he sees the floor well and only Doncic (486) has more assists on 3-pointers over the last two seasons than he does (474).
If Brunson and Randle can make each other better, and if Barrett (still just 22 years old) shows improvement in regards to efficiency and consistency, the Knicks can have something in the range of a league-average offense this season. That’s not going to make them one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference, but it would be a step forward.
4. Defense
Brunson probably isn’t going to help the Knicks defensively. He’s not very disruptive, with his 1.2 deflections per 36 minutes ranking 242nd among 272 players who played at least 1,000 minutes last season. He’s also not going to protect the rim very well as the short man on the weak side…
But he doesn’t commit many mistakes and he generally doesn’t give up on plays when he gets screened. He also grades out OK as an isolation defender, with opponents having scored just 0.90 points per chance when they’ve isolated against him over the last two years. That mark ranks 42nd among 176 players who’ve defended at least 200 isolations over those two seasons, according to Second Spectrum tracking.
When he’s engaged, Brunson can move his feet, stay in front of his man, and force tough(er) shots…
Brunson will be stepping into a starting lineup that wasn’t very good defensively anyway. The Knicks’ two most-used lineups — Fournier, Barrett, Randle and Mitchell Robinson with either Walker or Alec Burks at point guard — allowed 116.6 and 113.7 points per 100 possessions last season. Those marks ranked 31st and 28th among the 34 lineups that played at least 200 minutes.
Brunson should strengthen that starting group overall. But his new teammates (Randle especially) also need to recover from a disappointing 2021-22. With the Knicks’ other offseason target now in Cleveland instead of New York, improvement from within is even more critical.

Starbucks Is Spending an Extra $450 Million to Revamp Its North American Cafes
Bloomberg News
,(Bloomberg) -- Starbucks Corp. jumped in late trading after Chief Financial Officer Rachel Ruggeri boosted the coffee giant’s outlook for sales and profit over the next three years as rapid expansion and an expected recovery in China boost performance.
The company now sees earnings per share, excluding some items, rising 15% to 20% in each of the next three fiscal years. Comparable sales -- a key metric for the restaurant industry -- are seen rising to 7% to 9%. Both forecasts are significantly higher than the previous views. Starbucks also plans to return $20 billion to shareholders over the next three years.
Ruggeri outlined the new targets in the company’s annual presentation to investors. She also cited higher prices and improved digital capabilities -- such as mobile and online orders -- as contributing to the acceleration.
The updated outlook shows that Starbucks’s “reinvention plan,” initiated by interim Chief Executive Officer Howard Schultz, is expected to bolster the company’s performance in a relatively short period of time. Starbucks shares rose sharply after the release of the new guidance before losing some of the gain. The stock rose 1.8% in late trading on Tuesday.
Starbucks said it expects to resume share buybacks in fiscal 2024. Schultz suspended the program as one of his first moves as interim leader this spring.
Store Revamp
Earlier Tuesday, Starbucks said it will be investing an additional $450 million to revamp its stores in North America with better equipment -- a move to appease the chain’s baristas, who have been unionizing across the US.
Starbucks is planning to add 2,000 new locations in the US by 2025, the Seattle-based chain said Tuesday. That includes more pickup, drive-thru-only and delivery-only restaurants to better serve diners on the go, the company said. Globally, the company expects to have 45,000 locations by the end of fiscal 2025. Customers can also expect an enhanced mobile app that makes it easier to order and anticipate when that order will be ready.
Earlier this year, Schultz pledged to overhaul the Starbucks experience for its baristas and customers alike. But until now, the details had been vague.
Both Schultz and incoming CEO Laxman Narasimhan spoke to an in-person audience in the morning session, which included more than 150 investors in the meeting’s morning session. Schultz acknowledged mistakes, but said Starbucks is still seeing record demand in the US and abroad.
The company expects that revenue in North America will rise 40% over the next three years as it adds locations, Chief Operating Officer John Culver said during the meeting. He also predicted “progressive” margin expansion in that region over the same time in the region, which accounts for more than two-thirds of sales.
The company is trying to make it easier for staff to operate its cafes by investing in new equipment and training in the US, where it has more than 15,000 stores. While Starbucks previously announced about $1 billion in fiscal 2022 spending on higher wages and cafe improvements, it had suspended its financial guidance for the year amid uncertainty in the key growth region of China.
In spite of Covid-related lockdowns in China that have dented performance there, Starbucks still expects to expand aggressively in the country. It’s targeting about 9,000 China locations by 2025, up from about 5,700 currently.
New CEO
In the face of a mounting US unionization drive, Starbucks earlier this month named Narasimhan as its next top executive. After concluding his time as CEO of Reckitt Benckiser Group Plc, Narasimhan will start at Starbucks in October with an extended tour of the company’s global operations. Schultz will officially hand Narasimhan the reins in April, while staying on as a board member and adviser. Narasimhan will be tasked with blunting the labor campaign that has spread in spite off the company’s move to raise average US barista pay to $17 an hour.
These pay increases, along with supply-chain and commodity inflation, have weighed on profit. The company has said its margin and earnings will be lower in its fourth quarter, which began in early July, versus the prior period. However, the company sees margin improving in each of the next three fiscal years.

HSDC English teacher wins legal case for constructive dismissal after being accused of 'playing the race card'
An English teacher has won a legal case after she was given 'humiliating' feedback on her lessons by assessors who broke their own rules – and then was accused of ‘playing the race card’ when she complained.
Betty Knight was accused of not doing enough in class to promote equality and diversity and was put on an improvement plan after being monitored for just 25 minutes.
When she argued that she was challenging racial stereotypes and providing a positive role model by her very presence, she was harassed out of her job, an employment tribunal ruled.
Her assessor, a senior learning manager for teaching, sent an email to a colleague complaining Mrs Knight was 'now throwing the E & D Black comment at me too'.
Most Popular
Mrs Knight, who is black British, launched a grievance case against the college after being put on an improvement plan and then resigned after seeing the email and feeling she had been discriminated against.
She then sued Havant and South Downs College, claiming she had been harassed out of her job and constructively dismissed.
Mrs Knight told an employment tribunal that the email between her assessors ‘insinuated’ she was ‘playing the race card’ after being criticised for not ‘promoting’ equality and diversity in her lessons.
She said she had found the remark to be ‘quite offensive, very unprofessional and evidence of victimisation and discrimination.’
The hearing in Southampton was told she started working at Alton College in 2013 and that this was part of a merger and became Havant and South Downs College in 2019.
In December of that year she was selected for a lesson observation.
The report of Mrs Knight's lesson was ‘overwhelmingly negative’, the tribunal heard.
There was ‘very little’ noted in the ‘Strengths’ column and comments in the ‘Areas for Development’ section would be ‘highly demoralising for a teacher’.
Later that day Mrs Knight was called to a meeting and given feedback.
She told the hearing she was ‘berated, humiliated and racially stereotyped’ by one of the assessors, a learning manager for teaching called Claire Scott - although Ms Scott contested this and the tribunal agreed with her.
They found she was ‘somewhat blunt’ in her feedback but did not agree she had racially stereotyped Mrs Knight in the meeting.
The tribunal stated that Mrs Knight considered herself, ‘with good reason’, to be a ‘conscientious and good teacher’ but that the negative feedback, after a brief 25 minute observation was ‘bound to have damaged her confidence and self-esteem’.
Following this meeting she was put on an ‘improvement plan’ - requiring her to work with another teacher.
The tribunal heard this left Mrs Knight feeling like she was in the bottom 10 per cent of teachers at the college.
The panel agreed that putting a teacher on a performance improvement programme was entirely acceptable to maintain standards.
However, Havant and South Downs College had not followed their own guidelines, as teachers are supposed to be assessed for at least 30 minutes.
The tribunal found that the college's action would 'seriously damage' trust and confidence between themselves and Mrs Knight.
The hearing was told that Ms Scott's feedback form explained that the main criticism of her English lesson was that Mrs Knight had failed in her 'promotion of equality and diversity'.
She then responded by sending an email saying: ‘As regards Equality and Diversity, I am a black teacher who is teaching English to a majority of white students.
‘Is that not a challenge to the racial stereotype and a positive role model to the one Black student in the class?
‘Yet, it appears my presence and efforts (it’s exhausting to have to keep fighting for equality!) are being seen by you as making a completely ‘insufficient impact on learning’!! An area for development?’
Ms Scott then sent an email to her fellow assessor saying: ‘Unfortunately she is now throwing the E & D Black comment at me too.’
The tribunal found that the email suggested Mrs Knight's colleagues thought that 'rather than advancing arguments in good faith', Mrs Knight was 'throwing' her comments about her race around.
After being put on the improvement plan, Mrs Knight went off sick and raised a grievance with college bosses.
During that process, which began in February 2020, she was handed relevant documents and saw the email which she said she found ‘offensive and unprofessional’, which she felt insinuated she was 'playing the race card' and was evidence of 'victimisation and discrimination'.
She resigned in February 2021.
The tribunal ruled that the email constituted 'unwanted conduct related to race' which 'violated' Ms Knight's dignity and created an 'intimidating, hostile and offensive' working environment.
In the ruling Employment Judge James Dawson said: ‘We find [the email] was an act of harassment.
‘Whilst it was one of a number of reasons for her resignation it materially influenced Ms Knight in making her decision [to resign].
‘We find that the comments did have a significant influence on Ms Knight who, reasonably, felt that she was being accused of playing the race card.
‘In those circumstances we find that the constructive dismissal was itself an act of harassment.’
A further hearing will be held in due course to decide what compensation Mrs Knight receives for her constructive dismissal.
She lost an additional claim for race discrimination, having claimed that while on a variable hours contract she had not been informed when a permanent role became available at the college in 2017.

Tony Ferguson has called out Daniel Cormier for his recent comments claiming 'El Cucuy' is done. In the aftermath of Ferguson's submission loss to Nate Diaz at UFC 279, 'DC' opined that it might be best for 'El Cucuy' to hang up his gloves.
However, Cormier also stated that Ferguson's unwillingness to step away spoke of his lack of "self-awareness."
Ferguson responded to Cormier's comments, advising the Hall of Famer to stay away from sweets as they get to your head. The former lightweight interim champion also took a dig at his long-time foe Khabib Nurmagomedov, who is a close friend of Cormier. 'El Cucuy' commented on a post citing 'DC':
"@dc_mma Should Put The Sweets Down. Too Much Sugar Will Go To Your Head like Ol’ Fathead Khabieber. Once a hater always a vagina- Champ 🖕😎 -CSO- MF’as 🇺🇸🏆🇲🇽 # 🥇"
Daniel Cormier was unimpressed with the UFC 279 headliner at large. The former UFC double champ did not buy into the 'theatrics' that was mixed in with an overall underwhelming performance.
Tony Ferguson doesn't sound like he's quitting
Tony Ferguson's loss to Nate Diaz made it five in a row for the former interim lightweight champion. 'El Cucuy' hasn't been able to find success since his twelve-fight win streak was brutally snapped by Justin Gaethje in 2019.
While talk of his retirement has been going around, Ferguson himself doesn't appear to have any such plans. Reacting to his loss to Diaz, 'El Cucuy' stated that he would have done better to keep the contest standing. Ferguson also seemingly hinted at making some adjustments to his gameplan for the future. The 38-year-old said in his post-fight interview:
"I should have kept it standing. Period. Got to discuss somethings with my cornermen. Nothing bad. Nobody’s getting fired, nobody’s doing f****** bad. It’s just some adjustments, it’s a new game for me, mixing it up, putting the MMA together.... It was just unfortunate, s*** happens. I wish it would have made it to the fifth round. I know what to do better next time. It f****** sucks."

If Erik ten Hag is concerned about Manchester United taking their Europa League assignment in Moldova too lightly, then he could do worse than give the floor to Casemiro.
United are travelling to Chisinau on Wednesday for a group fixture against a team playing their games in the capital city, due to their base of Transnistria - a breakaway region not recognised internationally - being on the Ukrainian border.
It's an arduous trip for a team accustomed to the glamour of the Champions League, but United have to win in the Zimbru Stadium, after losing to Real Sociedad last week, while Sheriff Tiraspol started their campaign with an impressive three points in Cyprus.
READ MORE: United training squad for FC Sheriff fixture
That should already act as a warning to United, but Casemiro is well versed in the dangers of a team who have won seven successive domestic titles. Sheriff reached the Champions League group stages last season and claimed the most famous result in their history, a 2-1 success against Real Madrid in the Bernabeu.
Casemiro played 66 minutes of that game and 84 minutes in the return fixture, which Real won 3-0. The season finished with the Brazilian winning his fifth Champions League, but that group stage result was a humiliating night in Madrid.
Sheriff are clearly a dangerous outfit and for the third time in just over a year, the 30-year-old defensive midfielder will line up against them, having swapped Europe's top tier for a campaign in the Europa League with United.
Casemiro won't expect to be gracing that competition for long and after signing for an initial £60million three-and-a-half weeks ago, he probably expected to be a regular already. So far, the 63-cap Brazil international has had to settle for three cameos off the bench in the Premier League, with Scott McTominay raising his game in the defensive midfield role.
The Europa League fixture against Real Sociedad last week was Casemiro's first start, but he didn't produce a performance that would have made Ten Hag think twice about his Premier League selection. He looked sluggish at times and his radar was off.
Ten Hag has already spoken of Casemiro needing some time to adapt, both to the Premier League and to United, although that hasn't stopped the Dutchman from throwing Antony straight into his team after a couple of training sessions.
That period of adaptation has been halted by United's fixture postponements following the death of Queen Elizabeth II last Thursday.
Casemiro almost certainly hadn't done enough to start at Crystal Palace on Sunday, if the game had gone ahead, but he might have expected more minutes off the bench. Instead, the entire Premier League schedule was postponed last weekend.
The league resumes this weekend, but United's fixture at home to Leeds United on Sunday is one of two matches that has been called off due to a stretch on police resources, with Liverpool's trip to Chelsea also postponed. It means United's next Premier League game will be the derby at the Etihad on Sunday, October 2.
That might have been a fixture that Ten Hag had circled for Casemiro, the kind of game where his excellence in defensive midfield will be badly needed. But if he is still not considered up to the pace of the Premier League he could pose a significant risk against the speed and industry of City's attacking players.
He is one of three United players included in the Brazil squad for the international break and while the friendlies against Ghana and Tunisia are being played in France, reducing the travel burden, it is less time for Casemiro to spend on the training pitches at Carrington.
Another start against Sheriff is unlikely to get him up to speed for his first Manchester derby, even if he can warn his teammates about just how dangerous the Moldovans are. By the time the City fixture rolls around it will be 28 days since United last played in the Premier League.
The absence of games isn't helping Casemiro's assimilation period. Proving himself in the Zimbru Stadium is unlikely to be enough to be ready to face down Kevin De Bruyne and co at the Etihad.

Klinsman Torres says his journey to Atlanta resembled a “horror movie.”
The Venezuelan migrant set off for the U.S. in mid-July. His trek through South and Central America included a four-day slog across the Darien Gap, a dense, lawless jungle near the Colombia-Panama border where hundreds of migrants are believed to have lost their lives to dangerous conditions and armed violence.
“It takes a huge toll on you to be exposed to so much danger,” Torres said. The 31-year-old made his way to Atlanta via the southern border late last month. His arrival is part of an influx of migrants seeking asylum that is overwhelming local assistance agencies — and a sign that an unprecedented level of unauthorized migration to the U.S. is making itself felt in communities far from the border.
It’s not clear how many migrants have come to Georgia in recent months, because no one agency tracks all arrivals. But charities here say the surge in numbers and lack of coordination to ensure the newcomers have somewhere to go has stretched them to their limits.
During the first 10 months of fiscal year 2022, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported more than 1.8 million apprehensions along the U.S.-Mexico border, a record high. Under a Trump-era public health rule enacted during the pandemic, hundreds of thousands of migrants continue to be quickly turned away without a chance to apply for asylum, a right protected by U.S. law. But the authorities are allowing others to temporarily stay in the country, including those whose home countries would be reluctant to take them back. That includes Torres’ homeland: Venezuela.
In July, Venezuelans accounted for roughly 17,600 border crossers, up from about 6,000 in July 2021. Only 51 of the Venezuelans who arrived in July were expelled under the public health rule. After being processed and vetted at the border, migrants are free to scatter across the country, with some doing so courtesy of bus trips paid for by the Texas government.
Torres currently finds himself in a Roswell hotel, where a local nonprofit has temporarily housed him. He says he came to the country now because he perceived it to be an auspicious time to cross the border.
“I decided to come here to take advantage of the situation, where you can come in. It’s not easy, but [the border] could become more closed in the future,” he said. “I believe before it was more complicated, when it comes to being undocumented in this country.”
After spending two days in detention in Texas, Torres was released from government custody to lawfully await a hearing in immigration court. Like other migrants in his situation, he is required to periodically check in with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He chose to travel to Atlanta because he had heard that jobs here were plentiful.
Local nonprofit leaders say they are hearing stories like Torres’ on a recurring basis, an indication that migrants’ arrival in Atlanta isn’t akin to the politically orchestrated busing campaigns transporting thousands of border crossers from Texas to cities such as New York City or Washington, D.C. — though some earlier in the summer were reportedly dropped off in rural northwest Georgia, leaving their seats empty while the buses completed their journey north.
“There are people that are speculating, ‘Is this [Texas] Governor [Greg] Abbott?’ But I’m hearing more that it’s just that the Venezuelan asylum seekers that are coming right now do not have anywhere to live and they’re hearing that there are jobs to be had and rent is relatively cheaper in Atlanta. That’s what I’m hearing,” said Anton Flores-Maisonet, who runs a Decatur-based hospitality house for migrants called Casa Alterna. “People are coming every day.”
In recent years, the Venezuelan asylum seekers Flores-Maisonet hosted had spent time in Georgia immigrant detention, and were only in need of short-term housing assistance, since they had plans to reunite with family living elsewhere in the country. But those arriving now directly from the border seem to have no one to receive them.
Casa Alterna is currently housing seven individuals. Limited capacity doesn’t allow for more folks to be taken in.
“We have probably turned away over a dozen requests for accommodation in just the past two weeks,” Flores-Maisonet said.
With no government support for asylum seekers, it is falling on immigrant advocates like Flores-Maisonet to ensure that newcomers’ basic needs are met, a task that is become more and more difficult to see through. Those who ask for asylum typically have to wait around, sometimes up to a year after their arrival, to receive work authorization that enables them to legally support themselves.
“Atlanta is on the cusp of a crisis,” Flores-Maisonet said. “Scores of vulnerable, unhoused people from a faraway land are arriving at our doorstep.”

‘There’s no plan’
Early in the morning on Aug. 26, staff at the Latin American Association (LAA) came across three Venezuelan asylum seekers sleeping outside their Brookhaven headquarters. The group had arrived the night before, and headed to the LAA because they had heard migrants like them could find assistance there.
“I never imagined that once I got here, I would have to sleep on the street again. It’s something we had to do more than once during our journey,” Jineth Ramírez, a mother of three, told Telemundo.
Cynthia Román-Hernández, a managing director at the LAA, says the nonprofit has come in contact with up to 130 Venezuelan asylum seekers in recent months. It’s a population she describes as extremely vulnerable, without the means to secure shelter or even food. She recalls encountering an asylum seeker three weeks ago who had no shoes.
“They arrive here with nothing,” she said.
The LAA has mobilized to help meet newcomers’ basic needs, including paying for temporary hotel stays. But the scale of the influx is putting significant strain on the organization’s resources.
“It’s turning into a rather critical situation.”
Flores-Maisonet, from Casa Alterna, says nearly all of the migrants arriving to Atlanta are coming through San Antonio, Texas, a city that is receiving as many as 800 migrants per day. Local San Antonio nonprofits are using funds from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to buy bus tickets to migrants’ chosen final destinations, including Atlanta. One such organization is Catholic Charities, Archdiocese of San Antonio. Its leader, J. Antonio Fernandez, told the AJC that while Catholic Charities tries to verify that there are available shelter beds in destination cities before paying for migrants’ transportation, staffers are unable to perform that assessment for every single individual.
Immigrant advocates in Atlanta say better coordination is needed between local governments and local nonprofits to provide a suitable humanitarian response to the influx of destitute asylum seekers.
“The problem really isn’t that there are immigrants coming here. Especially for us, we don’t see that as a problem. The real problem is that there’s a lack of resources, and that there’s no plan, no interagency coordination,” Román-Hernández said.
The Atlanta Mayor’s office and the newly created Office of International and Immigrant Affairs did not respond to repeated requests for comment.
For asylum-seeking migrants, settling down in Georgia could go against their best interest. As Román-Hernández explained, pro-bono immigration lawyers in the area are few and far between – the LAA’s own legal services team is fully booked for the next two months. And there’s also the fact that Atlanta’s immigration court judges tend to turn down the overwhelming majority of asylum cases they handle.
Analyzing six years’ worth of data, from 2016 to 2021, Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), found that over 90% of the 2,588 cases reviewed in Atlanta ended in rejection.
“It’s no secret that the Atlanta immigration court has traditionally been among the lowest granting immigration courts in the nation,” said Carolina Antonini, a local immigration attorney. “The numbers don’t lie.”
Advocates such as Román-Hernández and Flores-Maisonet are telling migrants about those factors, to let them know that it might be more advantageous for them to move on to other, more immigrant-friendly jurisdictions, where the years-long wait for a decision on their case is more likely to end in permission to permanently stay in the country.
“Here it’s more of an uphill climb,” said Román-Hernández. “That’s the reality of Georgia.”
How asylum works
- Asylum is a protected immigration status for migrants who are able to prove a well-founded fear of persecution in their home countries based on their race, religion, nationality, politics, or membership in a particular social group.
- For migrants entering the U.S. illegally, their odds of being granted asylum vary depending on the location of the immigration court that will ultimately handle their case. Immigration judges are more likely to grant asylum in cities such as New York, San Francisco and Chicago; and they are more likely to deny asylum claims in cities such as Houston and Atlanta. Migrants generally must file their asylum applications within one year of entering the country.
- Because of a mounting backlog in the immigration court system, many of the recent newcomers in the U.S. hoping for asylum will have to wait seven years on average before a decision on their case is made. During that time, many asylum-seekers will lay down roots in their chosen U.S. community, filling job openings and paying taxes.

Relatives and close friends gathered on Thursday on the rooftop garden terrace of Naomi Leibler, the former president of World Emunah, for the marriage of her son Romy to Orly Gabbai. Because there were many people from Emunah and the Hazvi Israel congregation whom she would have invited under other circumstances, the mother of the groom decided to host a kiddush in her home rather than at the synagogue.
As luck would have it, someone had interfered with the mechanism of the Shabbat elevator and the hostess and her guests had to walk up five flights. There were several septuagenarians and octogenarians among the guests, including synagogue stalwarts Bob and Toby Asch, who recently celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary.
Unlike some of the British- and American-born congregants of Hazvi Israel, whose native accents are discernible in their Hebrew, the groom read the haftarah without any trace of an Australian accent, though strangely enough, when he made Kiddush afterward in his mother’s home, the Australian accent came out very strongly.
In the synagogue, his mother, who occasionally gets annoyed with her children but is not in the habit of throwing things at them, happily joined with other congregants in flinging candies at the groom. In his thanks to her for hosting the sumptuous kiddush, the groom noted that this was the first function she had hosted since the death of his father in April, last year.
His father, Isi Leibler, had been a long-time second-generation leader of Australian Jewry prior to his aliyah. For 20 years, following his move to Israel, he was a regular columnist for The Jerusalem Post, with a huge following. The Leiblers were extremely hospitable, not only hosting guests at their table for Shabbat and Jewish holidays but also during the week.
It was always a treat to sit among their guests, who included intellectuals, rabbis, lawyers, writers, community leaders from abroad, and more. The conversation was always exhilarating. In paying tribute to his bride, the groom said that it was part of Jewish tradition for a groom to feel like a king. He didn’t know if he would continue to feel that way, but he could not have chosen anyone more suitable to be his queen and to support him in his path in life.
Orly, who in the late 1980s was a member of the administrative staff of the Post, said that while she was honored to be considered his queen, it was more important that they were friends. Their relationship had been built on an abiding friendship, she said, and this would be a significant component of their marriage.
She was also happy to have established a strong bond of affection with her mother-in-law and other members of the Leibler family, the youngest of whom, a baby, was being looked after by grandparents Tamara and Harry Grynberg. Tamara is the groom’s sister.
Hotel news
■ AFTER LESS than 18 months as operations manager at the King David Hotel, Jeremy Sheldon is moving on to something new. Sheldon took over from the iconic Sheldon Ritz when the latter took up the post of general manager at the Vert hotel, where he was given the green light to do just about anything he had ever dreamed of in terms of hotel management. The two had worked together for several years and are close friends.
Sheldon left the King David Hotel after being offered the job of operations manager at the soon-to-be-opened M-Gallery Theatron Hotel, part of the Accor chain, one of the largest hotel chains in the world. The hotel, situated opposite the Jerusalem Theatre, will be a convenient home-away-from-home for thespians, orchestras and dance troupes, who will only have to cross the road for rehearsals and performances, thereby avoiding Jerusalem’s chaotic traffic.
It will also be a boon to tourists who have come to attend a performance at the Jerusalem Theatre. One only hopes that with all the new hotels, and those still under construction, that incoming tourism figures will justify the investments. If not, the buildings can always be converted to studio apartments for Jerusalem’s burgeoning population.
National Library gets new English PR
■ AFTER NEARLY eight years at the National Library, where among other things he has been engaged in the institution’s English-language public relations, Zack Rotbart is moving on and waved goodbye this week to researchers, bookworms and other friends and acquaintances. Rotbart, whose official title was manager of global content and media relations, plans to continue writing on historical and cultural topics. But his new day job will be senior strategist at a boutique PR firm in Jerusalem, whose main focus is helping up-and-coming Israeli tech companies tell their stories.
Taking over at the National Library is Rachel Neiman, who is fluent in Hebrew and English. Neiman is no stranger to the National Library, where she has been a resource development associate in the fundraising and international relations department. She is an experienced media professional, having worked both as a journalist and public relations executive and as a community relations director for various companies.
Before joining the National Library, she worked in executive capacities with various hi-tech companies, and while working for the Koteret PR Agency, she worked with Israeli start-ups securing coverage for them in various leading media outlets. As a journalist, she covered Israel’s ever-growing tech scene for LINK magazine, The Jerusalem Post, Israel 21c and Globes.
While technology is basically her subject, Neiman, who continues to write for Israel21c, reports on other subjects, such as Israeli pop culture and Israeli nostalgia.
Jerusalem Botanical Gardens
■ TWO PROMOTIONS have been announced by the management of the Jerusalem Botanical Gardens. Yotam Reshef has been promoted to vice president of education and community; and Nira Razmovich to vice president of operations and human resources.
“As the largest botanical garden in Israel and the Middle East, in the past year we expanded our array of activities in education, culture, art, leisure, nature and the environment, said Tom Amit, CEO of JBG. “Despite corona, we upgraded our relationship with the community on a variety of levels. By adding new areas to the array of courses and activities, we have leveraged the amazing connection between man and nature, which for us is critical. We have added important roles that were born as a result of the expansion of the activity.” This expansion policy has led to the above-mentioned promotions.
Until recently, Reshef, 36, was the manager of Habitus, JBG’s hub of urban sustainability. He will now manage three departments: education, courses and community and sustainability. An alumnus of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Reshef has a BA in social work and an MA in business administration and nonprofit management. He has been working at JBG for four years.
Razmovich came to JBG seven years ago from the field of general accessibility, a field in which she worked for some six years. She has a BA in communications and social sciences from the Open University, and studied personality graphology at Ma’ain College. She said it is important to her that every worker in the kindergarten team can reach her regarding any issue, in operational terms and day-to-day employment aspects, as well as on personal levels.

Earliest gibbon fossil found in southwest China
A team of scientists has discovered the earliest gibbon fossil, a find that helps fill a long-elusive evolutionary gap in the history of apes.
The work, reported in the Journal of Human Evolution, centers on hylobatids, a family of apes that includes 20 species of living gibbons, which are found throughout tropical Asia from northeastern India to Indonesia.
"Hylobatids fossil remains are very rare, and most specimens are isolated teeth and fragmentary jaw bones found in cave sites in southern China and southeast Asia dating back no more than 2 million years ago," explains Terry Harrison, a professor of anthropology at New York University and one of the paper's authors. "This new find extends the fossil record of hylobatids back to 7 to 8 million years ago and, more specifically, enhances our understanding of the evolution of this family of apes."
The fossil, discovered in the Yuanmou area of Yunnan Province in southwestern China, is of a small ape called Yuanmoupithecus xiaoyuan. The analysis, which included Xueping Ji of the Kunming Institute of Zoology and the lead author of the study, focused on the teeth and cranial specimens of Yuanmoupithecus, including an upper jaw of an infant that was less than 2 years old when it died.
Using the size of the molar teeth as a guide, the scientists estimate that Yuanmoupithecus was similar in size to today's gibbons, with a body weight of about 6 kilograms—or about 13 pounds.
"The teeth and the lower face of Yuanmoupithecus are very similar to those of modern-day gibbons, but in a few features the fossil species was more primitive and points to it being the ancestor of all the living species," observes Harrison, part of NYU's Center for the Study of Human Origins.
Ji found the infant upper jaw during his field survey and identified it as a hylobatid by comparing it with modern gibbon skulls in the Kunming Institute of Zoology. In 2018, he invited Harrison and other colleagues to work on the specimens stored in the Yunnan Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology and the Yuanmou Man Museum that had been collected over the past 30 years.
"The remains of Yuanmoupithecus are extremely rare, but with diligence it has been possible to recover enough specimens to establish that the Yuanmou fossil ape is indeed a close relative of the living hylobatids," notes Harrison.
The Journal of Human Evolution study also found that Kapi ramnagarensis, which has been claimed to be an earlier species of hylobatid, based on a single isolated fossil molar from India, is not a hylobatid after all, but a member of a more primitive group of primates that are not closely related to modern-day apes.
"Genetic studies indicate that the hylobatids diverged from the lineage leading to the great apes and humans about 17 to 22 million years ago, so there is still a 10-million-year gap in the fossil record that needs to be filled," Harrison cautions. "With continued exploration of promising fossil sites in China and elsewhere in Asia, it is hoped that additional discoveries will help fill these critical gaps in the evolutionary history of hylobatids."

Satellite from GalaxEye powered by Antaris software platform to feature world's first pairing of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and optical sensors on a single satellite
Constellation will dramatically improve analytical quality of resulting geospatial data
LOS ALTOS, Calif. and CHENNAI, India, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Antaris, the software platform provider for space, and GalaxEye, an imaging satellite operator, today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding to create the world's first satellite featuring both SAR and optical sensors on a single satellite. The MOU highlights a unique commitment between three Indian space leaders—GalaxEye, Ananth Technologies and XDLINX Labs—and US-based satellite software provider Antaris.
The four companies intend to solve a vexing legacy challenge for consumers of remote sensing data. Typically, satellite constellation operators have deployed specialized satellites to capture specific types of data. Each image or data point is captured at a unique time from a unique location, making it difficult to correlate data from separate satellites. The new multi-sensor satellite being developed under the MOU will capture, for the first time in history, both SAR data and optical data from the same satellite—improving the ability to correlate the data and its analytical utility. The resulting datasets will have tremendous value for environmental, insurance and defense applications.
"The Antaris software platform was specifically designed as an end-to-end solution to help dramatically simplify the design, build and management of satellites," said Tom Barton, Co-Founder and CEO of Antaris. "The opportunity to join forces with our friends at Ananth Technologies, GalaxEye and XDLINX to provide a breakthrough solution for a multi-payload satellite imaging constellation is a great example of what our flexible platform was designed to do."
"We are very excited to partner with Ananth, Antaris and XDLINX," said Suyash Singh, CEO of GalaxEye. "We strongly believe that our combined expertise will result in a successful mission of GalaxEye's satellite which will provide superior geospatial imagery to our customers. This is a unique start-up collaboration in the space sector in India and will be further strengthened through support from ISRO and IN-SPACe. This MOU will be marked as the first milestone."
Under the terms of the agreement, Antaris will provide the SaaS technology platform required to design, simulate, build and manage the earth observation satellite from GalaxEye and its onboard Drishti sensor. Ananth Technologies will provide AIT (Assembly, Integration and Test) services and manufacturing capabilities. XDLINX Labs, a valued member of the Antaris Marketplace, will be responsible for the design of the spacecraft bus and supply chain integration services.
"XDLINX is very pleased to partner with Ananth Technologies and Antaris to realize the bus platform to support this unique mission for GalaxEye," said Rupesh Gandupalli, CEO of XDLINX.
"Ananth is truly excited to enable GalaxEye's vision through Ananth's Mission-as-a-Service (MaaS) offering," said Dr. Subba Rao Pavuluri, CEO of Ananth Technologies. "Our MaaS platform is a fruition of the synergetic collaboration of Ananth with its key partners, Antaris Inc and XDLINX Labs. Beyond launch, Ananth also sees opportunities to collaborate with GalaxEye in offering advanced geospatial services to Ananth's existing and new GIS customers."
The satellite is expected to launch in Q4 2023.
Antaris, the software platform provider for space, exists to make space easy. We dramatically simplify the design, simulation, manufacturing and operation of satellites, giving customers the flexibility and security to ensure mission success. Antaris brings New Space thinking to an Old Space world, solving the most pressing challenges for our industry to improve time-to-orbit and reduce cost. Learn more at www.antaris.space

Kwon, also the founder of blockchain platform Terraform Labs, has been accused of fraud by investors in the wake of the collapse.
“An arrest warrant has been issued for a total of six people, including Do Kwon, who are currently residing in Singapore,” a spokesperson for prosecutors said on Wednesday without elaborating.
Kwon did not immediately reply to a Reuters email seeking comment.
The arrest order comes after months of investigation, including search and seizure operations at related offices and local cryptocurrency exchanges.
TerraUSD, a so-called stablecoin that was once among the top 10 cryptocurrencies globally by market value, broke its 1:1 peg to the US dollar in May,
plunging in value and sending paired token Luna plummetting with it.
According to blockchain analytics firm Elliptic, investors in the two coins lost an estimated $42 billion.
The market turmoil that ensued led to the failure of several major crypto companies including US crypto lender Celsius and Singapore-based crypto fund manager Three Arrows Capital.
In an August video interview with crypto media platform Coinage, Kwon said he had moved to Singapore because of concerns about his family’s safety and rejected suggestions that the relocation was due to the crash or an attempt to evade investigators.

Queen Elizabeth II’s death has raised questions of whether or not the monarchy itself will survive without her.
Critics of the monarchy, while mourning the popular Queen, feel emboldened to raise questions about the monarchy’s relevance in the modern world.
Michael Smerconish, a conservative CNN commentator, asked his audience which was more likely to survive, the monarchy or American democracy? The answer was 71% for the monarchy and 29% for American democracy.
Americans, it appears, have more faith in the English monarchy than they do in their own governmental institutions. Both, however, are under attack.
The continuing criticism of the monarchy is that it costs too much. Supporting the Royals has never been a popular position. It is, in fact, expected that King Charles III will cut the purse strings for members of the extended family, applauding the example set by Harry and Meghan.
This sensitivity to the people’s concerns is one reason people expect the monarchy to survive the loss of Queen Elizabeth.
The disgruntlement of ex colonies is a more serious problem. The Caribbean countries, especially, want to remove the monarch as head of state, asserting their greater independence from Great Britain.
Even Canada and Australia are considering severing this symbolic tie.
More importantly, countries like Jamaica are demanding reparations for being enslaved by Royal companies in the past. They want an apology from the Royals themselves. Since Britain paid reparations to slave owners, the survivors of slavery think it only fair that they be paid similarly.
The question they all ask is “What does the monarch do that’s worth all this?” The answer to this question that emerged from Elizabeth II’s demise is that the monarch is a unifying symbol and unifying symbols matter.
It’s one of the things that gets you through the hard times. It gives you a place to put your hopes that’s nonpartisan or nondestructive. A good monarch can direct by example and cushion the shock of change.
In the modern world of instant communication and confusion, the monarchy can stand for consistency and reliability. Putting aside its entertainment value, the monarchy reflects the uncertainties of the present while reassuring people that they have survived worse.
The monarchy is the keeper of the past and it is important to recognize and remember history’s lessons.
The general mood in Britain seems to be to wait and give Charles III a chance to prove his relevance. They are not willing to jettison a symbol of continuity in a period of great change. They are willing to give Charles III the benefit of the doubt.
It is exactly that willingness that is missing in America. Joe Biden’s election was not met with the opposition’s temporary support or even a wait and see attitude.
The Trumpers went right on planning the overthrow of the U.S. government, electing election deniers to office, refusing to certify results that would favor the Democrats, amassing weapons just in case there’s a need at the next election, changing voting laws to make it difficult for people to vote.
We have no unifying symbol like a monarch. Our president is as close as we come. The single-minded devotion to Trump’s Big Lie by a small percentage of Americans has divided us beyond the ability of a single person to fix.
There will be no White Knight riding in to save us at the last minute. Only the American people can vote themselves out of this mess. American democracy will be saved by American democrats, acting for themselves.
We The People can defeat any demigod and his minions. Our confidence that we could do that is one reason why we ousted the monarchy in the first place.

Moderna Inc's MRNA CEO Stephane Bancel said the company has talked with the Chinese government about supplying COVID-19 vaccines, but no decision has been made, Reuters reported.
"We are open, we have the capacity," Bancel said but declined to say whether Moderna had submitted its vaccine for approval in the country.
There is about a 20% probability that a "problematic" variant of the virus could emerge this winter, Bancel said, adding it was not his base case scenario.
Speaking in Tokyo, CEO Bancel said Moderna is mulling building a factory in Japan to produce its vaccines, Nikkei Asia reported.

He added that construction would start immediately if the Japanese government signed a long-term deal (say ten years). Location and other details remain undetermined.
Bancel said Moderna would like to build a plant in Japan, with centralized processes, including manufacturing, in one facility. The plant would be able to produce COVID, flu, and other vaccines, Bancel said.
The vaccine developed by Moderna for the omicron variant has already been approved in Japan. The bivalent vaccine, which is effective for both the conventional and the BA.1 omicron variant, will be available soon. Vaccines for BA.4 and BA.5, currently the most prevalent strains, are being prepared.
On Monday, Japan's regulatory authority approved Moderna's omicron-targeting bivalent COVID-19 booster for adults.
Price Action: MRNA shares are up 1.39% at $133.12 during the premarket session on the last check Wednesday.

VALCOURT, QC , Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - BRP Inc. (TSX: DOO) (NASDAQ: DOOO) today reported its financial results for the three- and six month periods ended July 31, 2022. All financial information is in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted. The complete financial results are available on SEDAR and EDGAR, as well as in the section Quarterly Reports of BRP's website.
"We delivered record second quarter results while continuing to advance on our strategic initiatives. Our team's agility and resilience and the strength of our portfolio allowed us to continue to deliver robust performance in this unique operating environment," said José Boisjoli, President and CEO.
"As we are entering the second half of the year, demand for our products continues to be strong across our portfolio of products and markets. With current improvements in supply chain and our additional production capacity, we are in a favourable position to deliver an expected record second half of the year. Taking these factors into account and a stronger than expected second quarter, we are increasing our full-year guidance with an expected Normalized EPS of $11.30 to $11.65," concluded Mr. Boisjoli.
The FY23 guidance has been updated as follows:
The Company continues to expect another solid year with a Normalized EBITDA [3] increase ranging from 14% to 17% compared to the previous year. The Company anticipates that its Normalized EPS - Diluted [3] for the third quarter could be up over 50% compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2022 as the Company intends to take advantage of an increase in planned production capacity towards the back half of the third quarter to accelerate the pace of product deliveries.
The Company experienced a high level of demand for its products and a continuing level of supply chain related disruptions and inefficiencies in an increasingly inflationary environment when compared to the second quarter of Fiscal 2022 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2023. As a result, this limited the Company's ability to satisfy consumer demand, most notably for PWC, and to replenish dealer inventories and in turn further limited product availability in the network compared to seasonal optimal levels. Such supply chain related disruptions also resulted in an increased level of substantially completed units awaiting missing components.
Despite these challenges, the Company optimized the shipment of missing components to its dealer network which resulted in a high conversion rate of substantially completed units available for retail and it revised its production schedule based on seasonality and component availability. The Company implemented strategic pricing initiatives aimed at reducing inflationary pressures, which nevertheless unfavourably impacted the Company's profitability. The higher revenues achieved for the second quarter and first half of Fiscal 2023 compared to Fiscal 2022 were further supported by strong SSV retail sales, demonstrating the continued consumer interest, and by the ramping up of the new Juarez-3 facility dedicated to SSV production.
Revenues increased by $534.7 million, or 28.1%, to $2,438.5 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to the $1,903.8 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to a higher wholesale volume of SSV and 3WV sold due to strong retail demand, favourable pricing across all product lines and the introduction of the Sea-Doo pontoon. The increase was partially offset by a lower volume of PWC sold due to supply chain disruptions. The increase includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $10 million.
- Year-Round Products [6] (56% of Q2-23 revenues): Revenues from Year-Round Products increased by $402.5 million, or 42.1%, to $1,358.1 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $955.6 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to a higher volume and favourable mix of SSV and 3WV sold and favourable pricing across all product lines. The increase includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $14 million.
- Seasonal Products [6] (28% of Q2-23 revenues): Revenues from Seasonal Products increased by $116.7 million, or 20.3%, to $691.2 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $574.5 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2021. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to the introduction of the Sea-Doo pontoon and favourable pricing on PWC units sold, combined with a favourable mix of PWC. The increase was partially offset by an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation of $7 million.
- Powersports PA&A and OEM Engines [6] (11% of Q2-23 revenues): Revenues from Powersports PA&A and OEM Engines increased by $8.8 million, or 3.5%, to $257.5 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $248.7 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2021. The increase in revenues was mainly attributable to favourable pricing due to the strong retail environment, partially offset by lower volume of PA&A sold due to the lower volume of PWC units sold. The increase includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $1 million.
- Marine [6] (5% of Q2-23 revenues): Revenues from the Marine segment increased by $10.7 million, or 8.3%, to $139.5 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $128.8 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to a favourable mix of boats sold and favourable pricing, partially offset by lower volume of boats sold due to supply chain disruptions. The increase includes a favourable foreign exchange rate variation of $2 million.
The Company's North American retail sales for powersports products decreased by 14% for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022 compared to the three-month period ended July 31, 2021. The decrease was mainly due to limited product availability driven by supply chain disruptions.
- Year-Round Products: retail sales decreased on a percentage basis in the low single-digits compared to the three-month period ended July 31, 2021. In comparison, the Year-Round Products industry recorded a decrease on a percentage basis in the high single-digits over the same period.
- Seasonal Products: retail sales decreased on a percentage basis in the high-twenties range compared to the three-month period ended July 31, 2021. In comparison, the Seasonal Products industry decreased on a percentage basis in the low-teens range over the same period.
- Marine: retail sales for Marine products decreased by 9% compared to the three-month period ended July 31, 2021 also as a result of lower product availability.
Gross profit increased by $32.6 million, or 5.7%, to $602.7 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $570.1 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2021. Gross profit margin percentage decreased by 520 basis points to 24.7% from 29.9% for the three-month period ended July 31, 2021. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to a favourable volume of SSV and 3WV sold and favourable pricing across all product lines. The decrease in gross profit margin percentage was attributable to higher logistics, commodities and labour costs due to inefficiencies related to supply chain disruptions, partially offset by higher volume and favourable pricing.
Operating expenses increased by $25.2 million, or 10.9%, to $256.9 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $231.7 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2021. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in research & development ("R&D") expense to support future growth and higher general and administrative expenses mainly for the modernization of the Company's software infrastructure to support future growth.
Normalized EBITDA [7] increased by $3.3 million, or 0.8%, to $418.3 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $415.0 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher gross profit partially offset by higher operating expenses.
Net income increased by $24.8 million to $237.7 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to the $212.9 million for the three-month period ended July 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to a lower income tax expense and a favourable foreign exchange rate variation impact on the U.S. denominated long-term debt, partially offset by net financing costs.
SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JULY 31, 2022
Revenues increased by $535.4 million, or 14.4%, to $4,247.8 million for the six-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $3,712.4 million for the corresponding period ended July 31, 2021. The increase in revenue was primarily due to a higher volume of Year-Round and Seasonal Products mainly attributable to SSV sold and the introduction of Sea-Doo pontoons, as well as favourable pricing across all product lines. The increase was mostly offset by lower volume in PWC and ATV due to supply chain disruptions, and by an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation of $17 million.
Normalized EBITDA[8] decreased by $103.6 million, or 13.0%, to $690.4 million for the six-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $794.0 million for the six-month period ended July 31, 2021. The decrease in normalized EBITDA [1] was primarily due to lower gross profit due to supply chain disruptions and higher operating expenses, mostly in R&D and general and administrative expenses.
Net income decreased by $98.6 million to $358.7 million for the six-month period ended July 31, 2022, compared to $457.3 million for the six-month period ended July 31, 2021. The decrease in net income was primarily due to lower operating income and the unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation impact on the U.S. denominated long-term debt, partially offset by a lower income tax expense and lower net financing costs.
The Company used net cash flows from operating activities totaling $1.0 million for the six-month period ended July 31, 2022 compared to net cash flows generated of $326.9 million for the six-month period ended July 31, 2021. Concurrently, there was an increase in revolving facilities totaling $237.4 million.
The Company invested $220 million of its liquidity in capital expenditures to add production capacity and modernize the Company's software infrastructure to support future growth. The Company also returned $331 million to its shareholders through quarterly dividend payouts and its Normal Course Issuer Bid and Substantial Issuer Bid programs.
On June 10, 2022, the Company added $400 million to its available commitment under its revolving credit facilities and increased availability to $1,500.0 million. The pricing grid and other conditions remained unchanged.
On September 13, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.16 per share for holders of its multiple voting shares and subordinate voting shares. The dividend will be paid on October 14, 2022 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 30, 2022.

Many factors could cause the Company's actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements or future events or developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the following factors, which are discussed in greater detail under the heading "Risk Factors" of its Annual Information Form dated March 24, 2022: the impact of adverse economic conditions such as those resulting from the ongoing coronavirus (known as COVID-19) health crisis (including on consumer spending, the Company's operations and supply and distribution chains, the availability of credit and the Company's workforce); any decline in social acceptability of the Company's products; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; high levels of indebtedness; any unavailability of additional capital; any supply problems, termination or interruption of supply arrangements or increases in the cost of materials; any loss of members of the Company's management team or employees who possess specialized market knowledge and technical skills; unfavourable weather conditions and climate change more generally; any failure of information technology systems or security breach; the Company's international sales and operations; seasonal sales fluctuations; any inability to comply with product safety, health, environmental and noise pollution laws; the Company's large fixed cost base; any inability of dealers and distributors to secure adequate access to capital; the Company's competition in product lines; the Company's inability to successfully execute its growth strategy; any failure to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting and to produce accurate and timely financial statements; any inability to maintain and enhance the Company's reputation and brands; any significant product liability claim; any significant product repair and/or replacement due to product warranty claims or product recalls; the Company's reliance on a network of independent dealers and distributors; the Company's inability to successfully manage inventory levels; any intellectual property infringement and litigation; the Company's inability to successfully execute its manufacturing strategy or to meet customer demand as a result of manufacturing capacity constraints; increased freight and shipping costs or disruptions in transportation and shipping infrastructure; any failure to comply with covenants in financing and other material agreements; any changes in tax laws and unanticipated tax liabilities; any impairment in the carrying value of goodwill and trademarks; any deterioration in relationships with employees; pension plan liabilities; natural disasters; any failure to carry proper insurance coverage; volatility in the market price for the Subordinate Voting Shares; the Company's conduct of business through subsidiaries; the significant influence of Beaudier Inc., 4338618 Canada Inc. and Bain Capital Integral Investors II, L.P.; and future sales of Subordinate Voting Shares by Beaudier Group, Bain Capital, directors, officers or senior management of the Company. These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect the Company; however, these factors should be considered carefully. Unless otherwise stated, the forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date of this press release and the Company has no intention and undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect future events, changes in circumstances, or changes in beliefs, unless required by applicable securities regulations. In the event that the Company does update any forward-looking statements contained in this press release, no inference should be made that the Company will make additional updates with respect to that statement, related matters or any other forward-looking statement. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement.
The Company made a number of economic, market and operational assumptions in preparing and making certain forward-looking statements contained in this press release, including the following: reasonable industry growth ranging from slightly down to up high-single digits, that is based on the assumption that the supply chain disruptions do not worsen; market share that will remain constant or moderately increase; stable global and North American economic conditions and a limited impact from the military hostilities in Ukraine and the ongoing global health crisis; main currencies in which the Company operates will remain at near current levels; inflation is expected to remain elevated from strong demand, supply shortages and high energy prices, and is expected to gradually decline as central banks gradually increase interest rates; there will be no significant changes in tax laws or free trade arrangements or treaties applicable to the Company; the Company's current margins, will remain at current or improved levels; the supply base will remain able to support product development and planned production rates on commercially acceptable terms in a timely manner; the cybersecurity incident and its consequences will be adequately contained and will have limited impact on the planned wholesale; no new trade barriers will be imposed amongst jurisdictions in which the Company carries operations; the absence of unusually adverse weather conditions, especially in peak seasons. BRP cautions that its assumptions may not materialize and that current economic conditions may render such assumptions, although believed reasonable at the time they were made, subject to greater uncertainty.
This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company's results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial information reported under IFRS. The Company uses non-IFRS measures including the following:
The Company believes non-IFRS measures are important supplemental measures of financial performance because they eliminate items that have less bearing on the Company's financial performance and thus highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting their results. Management also uses the aforementioned non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate financial performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets, assess the Company's ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements and also as a component in the determination of the short-term incentive compensation for the Company's employees. Because other companies may calculate these non-IFRS measures differently than the Company does, these metrics are not comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The Company refers the reader to the table below for the reconciliations of the non-IFRS measures presented by the Company to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.
The following tables present the reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures compared to respective IFRS measures:

Fall's dazzling colors will soon transform woods and forests around the U.S., delighting spectators — if they can figure out when to see the fall foliage at the peak of their transformation.
A nationwide map of foliage patterns is here to help, offering a best-guess guide to when aspen, birch, larch and maple trees will turn vivid shades of gold, orange and crimson.
The forecast produced by the Smoky Mountains website predicts much of the U.S. will start seeing the most dramatic colors by late September to mid-October. But fall foliage can be very tricky to predict, especially as climate change brings warmer temperatures and disrupts historic rainfall patterns.
The timing comes down to several weather factors
Areas where warm temperatures persist can see fall colors arrive later than normal, especially if they've had near-average amounts of rainfall. And right now, the U.S. is coming off its third-hottest summer on record, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Dry conditions are another factor. In areas where rainfall has been scarce, leaves could start changing color early this year, and their effect might be less vibrant.
The U.S. Drought Map currently shows large sections of central and western states are experiencing moderate to exceptional drought. Much of the eastern U.S. is in better shape, but portions of the mid-Atlantic and Northeast, from Maryland up to Maine, are experiencing abnormally dry or drought conditions.
"We see a forest that is healthy in the far north but increasingly stressed by heat and drought in the south and near the coast," New England Today magazine says in its report on its home region.
The folks behind the Smoky Mountains' map acknowledge that like any forecast, theirs might not prove to be 100% accurate for every area. But they say their map is based on a complex algorithm that generates a strong prediction.
"Our model ingests multiple data points including NOAA precipitation forecasts, historical precipitation, average daylight exposure and temperature forecasts," Smoky Mountains founder and map creator David Angotti told NPR. "We process hundreds of thousands of data points from a variety of private and government sources to accurately predict the precise moment fall will occur for the entire United States."
The best conditions: cool nights and sunny days
"Sunny, but not hot, days and cooler nights provide the optimal conditions for fall foliage, with the lower temperatures slowing the production of chlorophyll — the pigment that gives plants their green color — and sunlight increasing sugar production," according to North Carolina State University's College of Natural Resources.
Dry conditions in parts of the Northeast have experts warning that people may need to temper their expectations for the fall show.
"The timing might not be the same, the colors might be a little bit more muted and not as beautiful and robust as we usually get to experience here in New England," as Nicole Keleher, the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation's forest health program director, told NPR member station WBUR.
Some areas could be helped by more rainfall — as long as it doesn't come with strong storm winds that knock leaves down.
"When there is more rain, the colors pop even more," the National Parks Service says, adding, "When there is a cool fall, the red maple leaves appear brighter as well."
When chlorophyll steps aside, other pigments shine
"Carotenoids are where we're going to get that yellow and orange color," as botanist and plant ecologist Tanisha Williams of Bucknell University told NPR in 2020. "So as the green pigment starts to break down, we see this yellow and orange color."
As trees prepare to conserve their energy for the following spring, some of them also produce another pigment, anthocyanin, that brings striking red and purple colors.
"The falling of the leaves and the changing of the colors are all in preparation for the tree to hunker down and basically hibernate in the wintertime," Williams said.

Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio is known for a lot of things these days!
First and foremost, the Titanic actor is one of the best artists in Hollywood, having done a host of successful movies in the industry.
However, his reputation of dating females half his age has really got people talking these days.
This is especially when he recently broke up with his long-term girlfriend Camila Morrone, with the model turning 25 years old.
This kicked off an ocean of jokes and memes at the Hollywood actor's expense.
Now, amidst the current debate, it is reported that just weeks after the split with Camilla, Leonardo is apparently dating 27-year-old model Gigi Hadid.
The supermodel is the ex-girlfriend of former One Direction bandmember Zayn Malik.
According to a source speaking to People, "They are getting to know each other,"
Another source revealed how Leo is clearly eyeing Gigi as a romantic partner. “Leo is definitely pursuing Gigi. They've been seen hanging out with groups of people. It's only been a few weeks since the split. Since then, he's been hanging out with friends and family."
We're happy to see where it goes for them, however, that would mean that the jokes of Leonardo not dating anyone above 25 years of age, will come to an end.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — A’ja Wilson, Chelsea Gray and Kelsey Plum provided all the offense Las Vegas needed to move the Aces one win away from the franchise’s first WNBA title.
Wilson had 26 points and 10 rebounds to lead Las Vegas to an 85-71 victory over the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday night in Game 2 of the WNBA Finals.
The Aces had been 0-6 in the Finals before taking the first two games of the series with Connecticut. Las Vegas, which was swept in the championship in 2008 when the franchise was still in San Antonio and also in 2020, will look to secure the title on Thursday night in Connecticut.
“It’s going to take every bit of everybody,” said Gray, who added 21 points. “You can see the stats, it’s the toughness, it’s the little things that will get it done We have been a good road team this year. So we might as well go win on the road.”
Plum rebounded from an awful Game 1 to score 20 points.
“A’ja cussed me out before the game. That’s all I needed,” Plum said. “About time I joined the party. They carried us all week. It’s good to hit some shots, but we have one more.”
After being held to a season-low 67 points in Game 1, the Aces found their offensive prowess to hit 33 of 64 (51.6%) from the floor.
Connecticut, which finished 27 of 64 (42.2%) from the field, had four players in double digits, led by Courtney Williams with 18.
Jonquel Jones also had a double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds, Alyssa Thomas finished with 13 points.
Looking to establish an offensive presence early, both teams pushed the pace early, trading buckets to a 10-10 tie until the Aces seized momentum and used an 11-4 run to open a seven-point advantage. Las Vegas hit 55% (10 of 18) from the floor in the first quarter while the Sun struggled to a 35% clip, hitting just 7 of 20.
The Aces continued to apply offensive pressure in the second, led by Plum, who contributed 11 in the quarter.
“I thought Kelsey’s drives opened us up,” Hammon said. “I mean, the other day we got good looks again from three. We didn’t want to knock them down but you have to believe the worm will turn there eventually. The important thing is we are getting good looks once she gets in there.”
Connecticut was down 14 when coach Curt Miller went big with his lineup, and the Sun responded with a 12-4 run to cut their deficit to six before a Wilson bucket provided the Aces with a 45-37 halftime lead.
“Get to my spots my teammates are putting me in a situation where I’m comfortable,” Wilson said.
But Las Vegas’ offensive balance continued into the third, with five different scorers helping the Aces push the lead to 14, outscoring Connecticut 23-17, taking a 68-54 lead into the final period.
“We felt like we were playing catchup all night since we couldn’t string together consecutive stops,” Miller said. “Trying to keep this high-powered offense out of rhythm and tonight we struggled to do that.”
PAINTING EFFICIENCY
While the teams each came away with 34 rebounds, the Aces outrebounded the Sun 6-2 with offensive boards and had better overall efficiency in the paint by outscoring Connecticut, 46-28.
LET’S GET PHYSICAL
The third quarter saw both teams with bumps and bruises. Gray and Natisha Hiedeman left the game with twisted ankles early in the third quarter. Gray went back to the locker room but later returned. Jackie Young suffered a busted lip. Williams left late in the third with what appeared to be a lower leg injury. Hiedeman and Williams returned to start the fourth quarter. Young returned early in the final period.
BACKS AGAINST THE WALL
Connecticut is 3-0 in elimination games in the playoffs so far this season.
“We are taking it one game at a time,” Jones said. “That’s all we can do. We are going to go back home, we are going to have our fans behind us, who have been with us all season, and we are going to use that to propel us to a win and that’s all we can do.”
WATCHING THE W
ABC registered the most-viewed WNBA Finals Game 1 in five years, with 555,000 viewers, and a peak viewership of 872,000. It was an 18% increase over Game 1 of the 2021 WNBA Finals.

John Oliver Photograph:( Twitter )
During the episode, Oliver made fun of the various tributes that have been pouring in for the late queen including from companies like Domino's Pizza and the likes of cartoon character Crazy Frog.
Sky Network decided to censor the latest episode of 'Last Week Tonight With John Oliver' in the UK as the episode had a few joke on the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
During the episode, Oliver made fun of the various tributes that have been pouring in for the late queen including from companies like Domino's Pizza and the likes of cartoon character Crazy Frog.
"Obviously, we have to start with the UK, which is clearly still reeling from the shocking death of a 96-year-old woman from natural causes,” the host said. “It is a big moment [of] the week, and for some reason, absolutely everyone felt they had to wade in."
The portions were censored by Sky Network for the UK audience and several viewers raised objections on social media.
"Where can I watch the segment on the Queen from @LastWeekTonight considering Sky decided to cut it?” one wrote on Twitter. Another one said, “Don’t censor my @LastWeekTonight. I am British, I am a monarchist and I CAN TAKE A JOKE!!!”
Here is a look at some social media reactions to Sky cutting out queen-related jokes.
Don't censor my @LastWeekTonight. I am British, I am a monarchist and I CAN TAKE A JOKE!!! @SkyUK If @iamjohnoliver wants to have an intelligent, jovial, factual opinion about our queen I wanna hear it. FFS! The coverage and forced mourning here is getting real out of hand. 🤐😤
— Lindsay Sargeant (@SargeantLc) September 13, 2022
We’re not children, @SkyUK, please do not censor Last Week Tonight With John Oliver again just because he says a few edgy things about the royal family.
— Andy #GTTO (@andrewdsweeney) September 12, 2022
Where can I watch the segment on the Queen from @LastWeekTonight considering Sky decided to cut it? @iamjohnoliver

Oliver also had added that the monarch’s death was “not the only traumatic event that Britain has had to deal with,” pointing to the appointment of Liz Truss as the country’s new Prime Minister and Conservative Party chief.
On Monday evening, Last Week Tonight With John Oliver won its seventh consecutive late-night Emmy.

New ministers have been appointed and Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) has returned to parliament, but Slovakia's government is struggling to function properly.
With three of its ministers back in their parliamentary seats, SaS now holds 21 seats in the house. Even though the party said they were going to contribute their votes to open the September session of the parliament, the first one after the summer break, shortly before the session was scheduled on September 13 they specified they would not do so at the first attempt.
"At first we will run a test to see who the minority governing coalition will govern with, where they will look for support to open the session," head of the SaS caucus Anna Zemanová said, as quoted by the TASR newswire.
SaS is testing its former partners
The coalition of OĽaNO, Sme Rodina and Za Ľudí now has 69 MPs in the house. To open the session, more than half of all 150 MPs need to vote to approve the session programme, meaning the government must find at least seven votes among the opposition each time parliament convenes.
On Wednesday September 14, Speaker of Parliament Boris Kollár (Sme Rodina) made two attempts to open the session, but both failed. At the first attempt, 64 MPs were present at the vote while 71 were present for the second vote. Kollár then adjourned the session until Tuesday, September 20.
SaS say they will vote to open the September session.
"We have promised to do so, it is important for Slovakia to ratify the accession of Finland and Sweden to NATO," Zemanová said, as quoted by the Sme daily.
Many points to deal with - and fight over
In this precarious situation, parliament is scheduled to deal with an unprecedented number of draft laws during the September session. The Sme daily reports there are 147 points on the programme, and more than 80 of them are MPs' own legislative initiatives rather than being proposed by government ministers.
Observers believe the increased activity of MPs may be either because they feel the chaotic situation in parliament may be a chance to have their own proposals passed, or because they worry the current parliamentary term may soon come to a premature end and elections called, and want to try to push through their projects before that happens. Sme Rodina caucus leader Peter Pčolinský described it is MPs' "pre-election marketing", according to Sme .
Among the more controversial proposals is legislation to force shops to close on Sundays and a ban on rainbow flags on public buildings (from conservative OĽaNO MP Anna Záborská) as well as the introduction of registered partnerships, including for same-sex couples, from SaS MPs. Sme Rodina MPs want a further increase in child benefits, and a reduction in VAT on foodstuffs for schools, hospitals and social care homes to 5 percent. Meanwhile, SaS wants a cut in VAT on fuels and for restaurants.
Parliament is also scheduled to vote on a proposal by Sme Rodina to amend the constitutional rules governing parliament calling early elections.
Matovič under threat
An extraordinary session of parliament was held on September 13 for a no-confidence vote in Interior Minister Roman Mikulec (OĽaNO) initiated by the opposition Smer party.
SaS said they would not vote to oust Mikulec, but did not rule out initiating a no-confidence vote in Finance Minister Igor Matovič (OĽaNO). They claim several former and current members of the ruling coalition would back the move.
To oust Matovič, however, the whole opposition would need to back the proposal. While members of the Hlas party headed by former Prime Minister Peter Pellegrini have said they would consider it their duty to vote against Matovič, Smer leader Robert Fico said he would not as it would only pave the way for SaS to come back into government.

Aaron Broussard of Hopkins, Minnesota, has been sentenced to life in prison for distributing controlled substances, including fentanyl, which resulted in the deaths of 11 people and caused serious bodily injury to four people.
“Let today’s sentencing serve as a wakeup call to the drug traffickers pushing fentanyl in and around our communities,” Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Omaha Division Special Agent in Charge Justin C. King said. “A mere two milligrams of fentanyl, equivalent in size to a few grains of salt, is enough to potentially kill a person. The threat of fentanyl is real, and the traffickers pushing this deadly substance will be held accountable for the lives they’ve taken, the families they’ve hurt and the communities they’ve devastated.”
“Eleven lives lost. Families, friends, and communities were forever changed by the devastation brought on by Aaron Broussard’s deadly fentanyl. Although the trauma felt by the victims can never be undone and the true cost can never be calculated, Mr. Broussard will now spend the remainder of his life behind bars,” said U.S. Attorney Andrew M. Luger.
“Today’s sentencing of Aaron Broussard sends a clear message in how critical a role the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and its law enforcement partners play in protecting American consumers from illegal narcotics being shipped via the U.S. Mail. U.S. Postal Inspectors are committed to continuing our work to dismantle drug trafficking operations to keep USPS customers and employees safe from greedy drug traffickers who favor profit over human lives,” stated Inspector in Charge Ruth M. Mendonça of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, Denver Division.”
According to the evidence presented at trial, from 2014 through December 6, 2016, Aaron Rhy Broussard, 31, obtained controlled substances, including fentanyl, from China-based drug suppliers. Broussard conspired with his China-based suppliers to smuggle what would prove to be deadly drugs into the country. Broussard marketed these drugs for sale on his website, PlantFoodUSA.net, under the guise of selling plant food. He then used the United States mail and a United States Postal Service “Click-N-Ship” account to send out packages of deadly drugs around the country.
On March 12, 2016, Broussard placed a drug order for 100 grams of 4-FA, a controlled substance analogue, which was shipped from China. The package actually contained 100 grams of 99 percent pure fentanyl. Although Broussard had experienced a similar mix-up in August 2015 and was repeatedly told to test his drugs, he did not do so. Between March 31 and April 27, 2016, Broussard sent his branded packages containing fentanyl to more than a dozen customers throughout the United States. The customers had ordered and were expecting to receive an amphetamine analogue, similar to Adderall. They were not opiate users and had no tolerance for the deadly fentanyl Broussard sent them. After ingesting the fentanyl, believing it was Adderall, eleven of the customers died from a fentanyl overdose, and at least four customers suffered serious bodily injury.
Broussard continued distributing his deadly packages despite hearing about adverse reactions. Even after he learned that several customers had been hospitalized and nearly died, Broussard never warned his customers not to take the deadly drugs. Broussard did reach out to his suppliers in China to request a discount on his next drug delivery.
On March 31, 2022, following a 10-day jury trial, Broussard was convicted on 17 counts, including conspiracy, importation of fentanyl, possession with intent to distribute fentanyl, distribution of fentanyl resulting in death, distribution of fentanyl resulting in serious bodily injury, and possession with intent to distribute controlled substance analogues.
During the sentencing hearing, Senior U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson lauded the bravery shown by victims and their families in providing their victim impact statements to the Court. In imposing the life sentence, Judge Nelson told Broussard, “Your disregard for human life is terrifying.”
This case is the result of an investigation conducted by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, in partnership with Homeland Security Investigations, Customs and Border Protection, the University of Minnesota Police Department, the Peoria Heights (Illinois) Police Department, the Dallas (Texas) Police Department, the Broome County (New York) Sheriff’s Office, the Volusia County (Florida) Sheriff’s Office, the Orange County (California) Sheriff’s Office, Garrard County (Kentucky) Sheriff’s Office, Hazel Green (Wisconsin) Police Department, and the Atlanta (Georgia) Police Department.

He's been popping up all over the place - including on billboards in his pants - since releasing his latest single last week but Lewis Capaldi has now officially returned to Glasgow.
The singer popped up at an open mic night at Sauchiehall Street venue Box on Tuesday night and bought drinks for the whole bar.
The open mic night is regularly hosted by Ross Leighton of Fatherson and Callum Wiseman of Prides and attracts musicians of all kinds who want to show their abilities.
Last night's crowd was just a *bit* shy of the 50,00 he recently performed to at Glasgow Green but gave him a warm Glasgow welcome nonetheless - even before he announced he was picking up the bar tab.

Leaks of WhatsApp testing an option to export backups surfaced in June this year. But it seems that WhatsApp is keen on giving the users a third option to create chat backups and restore them. The existing two backup options are the cloud backup and the contents stored in the database file. But a simple export and import backup option could really change the game.
WABetaInfo discovered the possibility of this new feature in a Beta version of the app released recently. The screenshot displays the option of Import a Backup with the option to skip it if the user doesn’t want to do that.
Why do you need an Export/Import Backup feature in WhatsApp?
When you reinstall WhatsApp, it uses the database file to restore your most recent version of chats. You also have the option to recover the chats through cloud backup. But the option to create and import backups offers more flexibility in restoring the contents of your WhatsApp account.
Creating a single backup file and storing it is far better than copying multiple folders and files. Even if you want to format your phone, you could just copy the backup file to an external storage device. After resetting your phone, you could copy the backup file and use it to import all your chats and media in one go. This will also come in handy when you are upgrading or switching to a new phone.
While the feature sounds exciting, it might take a good year or so to actually arrive for the public. This is an estimation because WhatsApp didn’t provide any timeframe for the feature to go public. However, if backups can be created using WhatsApp, will they work on another OS like iOS? Assume you create a backup in Android and use that to restore chat backup on a new iOS device. Will it work?
If it does work, you wouldn’t need to go through complicated processes or install third-party apps to move data. Plus, even if you don’t have a strong Wi-Fi connection, you can rely on the backup file to import chats and media faster.

New Title IX Rules Get 235,000 Comments
A step forward or backward? Title IX public comments show deep divisions.
Higher education associations generally like Education Secretary Miguel Cardona’s new regulations for Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 but want more clarity about how the changes would be carried out, as well as more time to put policies in place.
“It is critical that the final regulations are sufficiently flexible to be effectively implemented across diverse institutions, reflect a sensible level of simplicity, and provide clarity about federal expectations for institutions and their community members,” the American Council on Education wrote in a letter to the U.S. Department of Education on behalf of nearly 50 organizations, including the Association of American Universities and NASPA: Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education.
The letter was one of more than 235,000 comments sent to the department about its proposed regulations during the 60-day comment period, which closed Monday. Comments came from a range of associations and advocacy organizations as well as parents, grandparents, students and others.
The department will review the comments before releasing a final set of regulations for Title IX, a law aimed at protecting students in all levels of education from sex-based discrimination. When the Title IX rules were overhauled during the Trump administration, the department’s Office for Civil Rights needed nearly a year and a half to review more than 124,000 public comments on the issue and finalize the regulations that went into effect August 2020.
Cardona proposed significant changes to those regulations earlier this summer that would once again change how colleges investigate reports of sexual assault, make it easier for victims to report sexual harassment, end the requirement for live hearings and expand protections for LGBTQ+ students, among other changes.
The proposed regulations also would expand the definition of sexual harassment to include unwelcome conduct that’s “sufficiently severe or pervasive.” The current sexual harassment standard is unwelcome conduct that’s deemed “severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive.”
Critics have said the changes would roll back due process rights for those accused of sexual misconduct.
ACE said in its letter that the organization and the signing associations supported provisions rolling back the requirement for live hearings and cross-examinations by advisers as well as the flexibility offered to institutions via other changes such as allowing campuses to use an informal resolution process.
“The current regulations, revised in 2020 during the Trump administration, have been problematic and in many cases have turned campus disciplinary processes into adversarial court-like tribunals,” ACE wrote in its letter.
The National Women’s Law Center said in a news release that the proposed rules were “a step in the right direction” but urged the Biden administration to go further, including by requiring colleges to use the preponderance-of-the-evidence standard in Title IX investigations, which means the evidence shows that it’s more likely than not that the allegations are true. The current proposal allows colleges to use the higher clear-and-convincing standard if it’s used in all other comparable proceedings.
“We appreciate that the Department of Education is taking steps to undo the previous administration’s harmful changes to the Title IX regulations by proposing new regulations to effectuate the law’s broad and remedial purpose, as Congress intended when it passed Title IX in 1972,” the NWLC wrote in a letter signed by 189 advocacy organizations. “At the same time, we note that the department’s proposed regulations do not reach far enough in protecting against sex discrimination in education.”
The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, a free speech organization, said in its formal comment that the proposed rules are “a significant step backwards” from the current regulations, and that they are unconstitutional. The organization took issue with the decision to eliminate the live hearing requirement, the changes to how harassment is defined and allowing a single investigator to investigate and adjudicate complaints.
FIRE predicted in its letter that if the proposed changes were carried out, they would lead to “another spike in expensive-to-defend Title IX litigation—most of which would be avoided if schools were instead required to comply with the current regulations’ protections for free speech and due process.”
“FIRE also questions the wisdom, necessity, and justification for replacing the 2020 Title IX regulations, which have been in effect for less than two years,” the letter says. “For much of that time, many students were absent from campus due to COVID-19. Given the short and unusual tenure of the current regulations, it is impossible to believe that the department has already amassed sufficient data to demonstrate a need for this comprehensive overhaul.”
Gender Identity Protections Controversial
Not all the submitted comments were posted by Tuesday, but many of the recent submissions focused on one of more controversial aspects of the new regulations: the expansion of protections against sex-based discrimination and harassment to include sexual orientation and gender identity. The proposal follows a wave of states adopting laws governing access to sports programs and educational facilities for transgender students and limiting discussions about sexual orientation and gender identity in the classroom.
The department is planning to issue a separate notice of proposed rules governing transgender students’ involvement in sports.
A coalition of 17 Republican state attorneys general, led by Montana’s Austin Knudsen, argued in a letter that the new definition for sex discrimination exceeds the department’s statutory authority, could eliminate single-sex facilities and could deny female athletes an equal athletic opportunity, among other ramifications. Knudsen’s letter makes similar points to many of the recent comments.
“With this proposal, the rule would make it unlawful for a school to deny participation in any education program or activity consistent with a student’s ‘gender identity,’” the letter says. “These changes constitute a stunning affront to the purpose of Title IX, which is to provide equal access to education and prohibit denial of education benefits and opportunities on the basis of sex. ‘Sex’ means what it has meant since the beginning of time: the immutable fact of being male or female.”
Knudsen also argued in the letter that the expanded definition of sexual harassment and other changes to the Title IX regulations could chill free speech on college campuses and negatively affect academic freedom as well as campus life.
“When combined with the department’s proposed changes to the current due process protections, the proposed rule will chill protected speech—allowing unscrupulous students and ideologically biased bureaucrats to weaponize Title IX against those with whom they disagree on hotly contested issues of political, societal, religious, and moral importance,” Knudsen wrote.
Under the proposed regulations, preventing someone from participating in an educational program or activity consistent with their gender identity would violate Title IX. Colleges and universities that receive federal funding are allowed to separate students on the basis of sex in limited circumstances as long as such treatment doesn’t cause more than de minimis, or insignificant, harm.
“The proposed rule’s inclusion of this new de minimis harm standard, which is not defined and has no basis in the statutory text, will result in significant confusion for campuses,” ACE wrote in its letter.
ACE recommended that the department delete the de minimis harm standard from the final regulations. At a minimum, ACE wants more information about the types of facilities that must be made accessible consistent with an individual’s gender identity, how the rule would apply to sex-separated living facilities and housing assignments, and the application of this standard in other sex-segregated programs and activities.
Over all, ACE is hoping that this round of Title IX changes will “stop the churn of perpetually changing rules.”
“We sincerely hope the current regulatory effort will put an end to the costly and confusing changes in regulatory requirements that have marked the last decade,” the ACE letter says. “We urge the department to adopt this three-part focus on flexibility, simplicity, and clarity as its lodestar while it considers comments to the [notice of proposed rule making] and refines the proposed regulations. A final rule that provides a more flexible regulatory structure and takes into account these values will make future swings of the regulatory pendulum less likely.”

Using a financial advisor for your investment needs is 100% on brand, but what about the other parts of your retirement life? For example, a third of people ages 64 and up have a financial advisor, but only 2% of them asked their advisor to help with their Medicare choices, according to a July 2022 report f rom health care consulting firm Sage Growth Partners.
But Medicare and other non-portfolio topics — like travel and long-term care — can affect your finances.
“We are actively bringing these ideas to our clients, but there are still plenty of advisors out there that are not,” says Crystal Cox , a certified financial planner in Madison, Wisconsin. “They’re still focused just on the investments and the portfolio.”
Here are some questions to ask at your next meeting.
1. WHAT RETIREMENT DECISIONS DO I NEED TO THINK ABOUT?
Your life in retirement may not continue as it has in the past. Do you plan to travel? Do you intend to move to a different state or downsize? How often will you want to buy a new vehicle?
“Most people just think, ‘I need a certain amount of money to live on,’” says Daniel Lash , a CFP in Vienna, Virginia. “What about all the ancillary things that come along with living? All the things you want to do?”
Mapping your retirement plans can help you and your advisor pinpoint when and how you’ll need cash.
“Do you have an idea of where you’re going to move, and what does real estate look like in that general area?” Lash says. “They’ve thought about retiring, not ‘What am I going to do when I retire?’”
2. WHAT SHOULD I KNOW ABOUT MEDICARE?
Although you generally can’t sign up for Medicare until you’re closer to 65 years old, your income in the years beforehand will affect what you pay for coverage. Each year, both Medicare Part B and Medicare Part D base their premiums on your reported modified adjusted gross income from two years prior. So if you filed individually making more than $91,000, or filed jointly making more than $182,000, you’ll pay additional amounts each month.
“Because there’s a lookback on earnings for Medicare expenditures, we’ll adjust plans accordingly, because they might be paying considerably more the first couple of years in retirement than later in retirement,” Lash says.
It’s also wise to consider guidance on Medicare choices in general, because you sometimes can’t change coverage later if your health situation shifts — and Medicare is complicated. “We do an annual meeting with somebody that specializes in Medicare,” Lash says. “All clients are invited to attend.”
3. CAN I AFFORD TO SELF-INSURE FOR LONG-TERM CARE?
A person turning 65 now has about a 70% chance of needing some kind of long-term care, and costs are steep: It’s $54,000 a year for an assisted living facility and nearly $95,000 for a shared room in a nursing home, according to insurance company Genworth’s 2021 Cost of Care Survey.
“Some people are well enough off that they’re comfortable self-insuring,” says Kevin Brady , a CFP in New York City. “Others have more limited assets.”
No matter what is the case, it’s crucial to discuss potential costs and whether you have the savings to manage them. If you don’t, you’ll need to run the numbers on products like long-term care insurance or a hybrid policy that combines permanent life insurance with a long-term care rider.
“We’re always working with an expert to do projections and see what makes sense,” Brady says.
4. DO I HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO HAVE SOME FUN?
A successful retirement isn’t always about the tangibles. For many, it’s a time to realize dreams of travel and other experiences, but spending too frugally can get in the way.
“Often clients are overly conservative for fear of running out of money, but in the process they shortchange the retirement experience,” says Kevin Lum, a CFP in Los Angeles. “By the time they realize their abundance, they’re too old to spend it.”
Talk to your advisor about your big-ticket wishes and whether you have enough money to splash out a little before you settle into quieter spending.
Actual retirement spending looks more like a smile than a straight line, Lum says, with more spending at the beginning on things like travel and more spending at the end on long-term care needs.
“I’m not saying people should spend irrationally,” Lum says. “But thinking about retirement spending as a fixed calculation that doesn’t change across the retirement life isn’t a smart idea.”

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — President Joe Biden has the same authority to impose a COVID-19 vaccine requirement on federal workers that private employers have for their employees, an administration lawyer told a federal appeals court Tuesday.
A lawyer for opponents of the vaccine requirement, which has been blocked nationwide by a federal judge in Texas, said the requirement imposes an “unconstitutionally intolerable choice” for executive branch workers — taking a vaccine they don’t want or losing their jobs.
Judges on the appeals court meanwhile questioned how far the chief executive’s authority goes, asking, theoretically, whether the president could require employees to meet certain healthy body weights or forbid them from smoking at home.
It was the second time arguments on the issue were heard before the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. A three-judge panel of the same court had upheld the Biden requirement for executive branch workers, overturning the Texas judge.
But the full appeals court, currently with 16 active members, vacated the panel ruling and agreed to rehear the case. There was no indication when the court would rule.
Administration lawyers argue that the employees opposing the mandate should have taken their objections not to federal court but to a federal review board, in accordance with the Civil Service Reform Act. The administration also argues that the president has the same authority, under the Constitution, as the CEO of a private corporation to require that employees be vaccinated.
Arguing for the government, Charles Scarborough of the Department of Justice, said the statute provides employees with “robust” remedies if they successfully challenge the requirement through the review board, including back pay if they are dismissed for not complying.
Addressing whether the president could impose body weight requirements on federal employees, Scarborough said the vaccine requirement is part of a mainstream effort to reduce the incidence of serious COVID-19 cases in the workplace, while a body weight requirement would be among “hypotheticals at the extremes.”
Opponents say the policy is an encroachment on federal workers’ lives that neither the Constitution nor federal statutes authorize. And they argued that a case involving a policy that could cost some workers their jobs if they don’t agree to a medical procedure is not the type of work policy that belongs before a civil service review board.
Biden issued an executive order Sept. 9 ordering vaccinations for all executive branch agency employees, with exceptions for medical and religious reasons. U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Brown, who was appointed to the District Court for the Southern District of Texas by then-President Donald Trump, issued a nationwide injunction against the requirement in January.
There came a series of varying rulings at the 5th Circuit.
One three-judge panel refused to immediately block the law.
But, a 2-1 ruling on the merits of the case by a different panel upheld Biden’s position. Judges Carl Stewart and James Dennis, both nominated to the court by President Bill Clinton, were in the majority. Judge Rhesa Barksdale, a senior judge nominated by President George H.W. Bush, dissented, saying the relief the challengers sought does not fall under the Civil Service Reform Act cited by the administration.
A majority of the full court voted to vacate that ruling and reconsider the case, resulting in Tuesday’s hearing.
Twelve of 16 active judges at the 5th Circuit were nominated to the court by Republicans, including six Trump appointees. Senior judges do not routinely take part in full-court hearings but Barksdale participated in the hearing Tuesday because he had been on the earlier panel.

White paper examines solutions to address the most prevalent workplace injury, musculoskeletal disorders
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Musculoskeletal disorders, or MSDs, are the most common cause of disability, involuntary retirement and limitations to gainful employment. Recognizing the need to address this prevalent workplace safety concern, the National Safety Council, America's leading nonprofit safety advocate, released a new white paper today: Preventing Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders: A Systematic Review of Current Interventions and Future Research Directions. Published through its MSD Solutions Lab initiative, the report uncovers many effective interventions used to prevent and reduce the impact of these injuries on the job.
In 2020, NSC reported the private sector experienced more than 247,000 MSD injuries resulting in days away from work. Aside from the human toll and cost for workers themselves, MSDs in the private sector cost businesses nearly $17 billion a year, according to the Liberty Mutual Workplace Safety Index. The MSD Solutions Lab, a groundbreaking initiative established in 2021 by NSC with Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), aims to solve this omnipresent safety challenge and reduce these risks and subsequent injuries by 25% by 2025 through the MSD Pledge.
"MSDs significantly undermine business efficiencies and workers' abilities to live their fullest lives — and more must be done to reduce these chronic, debilitating injuries," said Paul Vincent, NSC executive vice president of workplace practice. "This white paper seeks to offer solutions to this pervasive issue based on the latest research by providing organizations of all sizes with promising intervention strategies to help prevent these injuries."
The report references nearly 60 scientific studies and academic publications after initially identifying 13,500 potential articles on the topic. It examines interventions across the top 10 afflicted industries to determine safety initiatives that are most effective at reducing MSDs. Notably, the publication found that, consistent across multiple studies, interventions including the use of assistive devices, exoskeletons or employer-backed physical activity programs have the potential to be effective at reducing MSD discomfort, pain and injury. Programs that coupled physical modifications with cognitive processes and organizational change management forms of prevention were shown to have higher levels of effectiveness than those focusing on physical modifications alone.
"MSD prevention is not a one-size-fits-all approach, which is why it's critical for employers to continually examine their ergonomics program initiatives and involve and listen to their workers when doing so. This white paper reinforces the fact that physical modification interventions are better when implemented in conjunction with appropriate change management, coaching and training strategies," said Julia Abate, executive director, Ergonomics Center at North Carolina State University.
The MSD Solutions Lab also revealed findings related to the effectiveness of commonly adopted MSD interventions, prompting the call for more extensive research in these areas:
- Using innovative product designs, such as active suspension seats, as well as the right patient handling equipment and devices have shown the potential to reduce exposure to MSD risks.
- While wearables and exoskeletons are perceived to have many workplace benefits, some studies cite adverse effects on body parts not stabilized by the exoskeleton, or irritation on the body parts fitted to the device, thus highlighting a need for more research before widespread implementation.
- Further research is needed to expand upon MSD prevention measures among diverse populations.
- In addition, physical activities such as stretching, walking, yoga and Pilates may be viable solutions for providing workers with relief from musculoskeletal pain, but more research is needed to understand their effectiveness across various industries.
To learn more about the MSD Solutions Lab and this research, register for the 2022 NSC Safety Congress & Expo and attend the Addressing Musculoskeletal Disorders in the Workplace panel. You can also visit nsc.org/msd.
The MSD Solutions Lab is committed to democratizing the most current, rigorous research findings to help create safer workplaces for all. However, research into the state of MSD interventions is ongoing and subject to change in the presence of newly introduced data and publications. Any questions related to research methodologies and findings in this publication may be directed to msdsolutionslab@nsc.org.
The National Safety Council is America's leading nonprofit safety advocate – and has been for more than 100 years. As a mission-based organization, we work to eliminate the leading causes of preventable death and injury, focusing our efforts on the workplace, roadway and impairment. We create a culture of safety to not only keep people safer at work, but also beyond the workplace so they can live their fullest lives.

It is no secret that Korean moviegoers have a soft spot for musical films.
From “Mamma Mia” (2008) to “Les Miserables” (2012) and “La La Land,” (2016), many Hollywood musical films have found great success in Korea.
Yet, memorable Korean musical films that appeal to local audiences have been conspicuously absent.
This is why there has been a lot of hype in Korean online communities around Korea’s first jukebox musical film “Life is Beautiful” since it was first introduced in 2020. Directed by Choi Kook-hee, it took over two years for the film to finally be released due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation.
Now, the musical film is ready to win over audiences’ hearts. It’s a film full of sentimental drama, popular Korean hit songs from the 1970s to the 2000s and veteran actors’ skillful performances.
In the film, a housewife (Yum Jung-ah) who has devoted her entire life to her family finds out that she has lung cancer and only a few months left to live. As her last birthday present, the wife asks her husband (Ryu Seung-ryong) to help find her first high school crush. Though reluctant at first, her husband decides to go on this strange journey.
“This movie is about a mother. It does not matter what generation you were born in -- if you have a mother and a family, you can enjoy the film,” director Choi said during a press conference held at Lotte Cinema World Tower in Seoul on Tuesday.
The director added that his film can be particularly entertaining for people in their 40s and 50s, as it contains many hit songs that were popular when this demographic was younger.
“I loved that the film has songs that I enjoy listening to,” actor Ryu, 51, said.
Veteran actor Ryu added that Lee Moon-sae’s song “Unpredictable Life” was his favorite in the movie, as he found the song's lyrics relatable.
Co-star Yum, 50, also agreed that she was delighted to listen to the songs in the movie.
Director Choi explained that his team made a list of 30 to 40 hit Korean songs and discussed with the writer, producer and music director to select those that fit different scenes in the movie.
Since it is a musical film, the veteran actors, who do not have experience doing a musical project, had to take up a challenge.
“For the musical film, singing and dancing are as important as the acting. The veteran actors practiced the songs for over a year and also practiced the dance moves for around six months. I am really grateful for their hard work,” the director said.
Choi added that he decided to cast actors who do not have experience doing a musical project because he believed that good actors can pull off singing and dancing performances as well.
“I personally thought that if an actor is good at acting, he or she can also be good at dancing and singing,” the director said.
Choi also talked about why he decided to name his new musical movie “Life is Beautiful” which is the same as the popular Italian movie released in 1997.
“We did try changing the title. We even held a contest among staff but we came to the conclusion that the title ‘Life is Beautiful’ fits our movie well, so we decided to keep it,” he said.
"Life is Beautiful" will hit local theaters on Sept. 28.
Meanwhile, a musical animation film called “Princess Aya” directed by Lee Sung-gang and co-produced by hit filmmakers Yeon Sang-ho and Lee Dong-ha is also coming to theaters soon.
The musical film is led by two K-pop artists, Baek A-yeon and Park Jin-young of the boyband GOT 7.
“This is my first project as a voice actor, and I was relieved that it has songs. I am a singer, so acting was a challenge for me. If it only had dialogue, I think I would have had more pressure,” Baek said during a press conference held at Yongsan CGV on Tuesday.
The fantasy musical animation is about Princess Aya (Baek) of the Yeonliji kingdom, who is under a curse that transforms her into different animals. Using a magical bracelet, she is able to hide that she is cursed. One day, the king of Yeonliji decides to create an alliance with the Kingdom of Vatar by marrying Aya off to Prince Vari (Park).
“Princess Aya” will be released on Sept. 21.

LONDON (AP) — England's coaching group will have a distinctly Australian feel at the Twenty20 World Cup taking place Down Under next month.
Already led by an Australian in head coach Matthew Mott, England has also hired two more people from Down Under — its former fast-bowling coach, David Saker, and ex-international batter Michael Hussey — to be part of the backroom team for the tournament.
Saker, who will begin his consultancy contract during the forthcoming T20 series in Pakistan that precedes the T20 World Cup, spent five years with the England men's team before leaving in 2015. He helped to build the bowling attack that took the team to No. 1 in the test ranking as well as winning the Ashes in 2010-11.
Barely a year after leaving the England set-up, Saker was on the other side of the Ashes divide, working as Australia’s bowling coach. More recently, he worked as an assistant coach to Mickey Arthur with Sri Lanka.
Hussey, fondly known as “Mr. Cricket,” has acted as a batting consultant for numerous teams since retiring. He has coached with Australia, South Africa, Sri Lanka and IPL franchise Chennai Super Kings as well being director of cricket with Sydney Thunder in the Big Bash.

A new type of blood test has shown the potential to become a game-changer in cancer diagnosis. According to the new data supporting the accuracy of multi-cancer early detection (MCED) blood testing, presented at the ESMO Congress 2022, has major implications for future cancer care provision, said Fabrice André, ESMO 2022 Scientific Co-Chair.
According to the scientists, the test was conducted among 6,662 individuals as part of a Pathfinder Study by GRAIL, a healthcare company working on improving cancer screening. Interestingly, the test detected multiple cancers among patients who were yet to show any symptoms.
“We need to involve all stakeholders in deciding new pathways of care. We need to agree on who will be tested and when and where tests will be carried out, and to anticipate the changes that will happen as a result of these tests, for example in the diagnosis and treatment of people with pancreatic and other cancers that are usually diagnosed at a much later stage,” André, Director of Research at Gustave Roussy Cancer Centre, Villejuif, France and newly elected future president of the Society for the years 2025-2026 said in a statement.
The experts revealed that the new MCED tests in development can detect a common cancer signal from over 50 different types of cancer and “predict where the signal has come from in the body.”

While conducting the PATHFINDER study, the scientists found that an MCED test detected a cancer signal in 1.4 percent of 6621 people aged 50 years and over who were not known to have cancer, and cancer was confirmed in 38 percent of those with a positive test. Of 6290 people who were cancer-free, 99.1 percent received a negative test result.
“Among those with a positive test result, the time to achieve diagnostic resolution (i.e. to find cancer or decide there was no evidence of malignancy requiring further investigation) was a median of 79 days,” the study revealed.
The outcomes of the study were reported at the ESMO Congress 2022. The scientists claimed that this is the first prospective investigation to show that an MCED test can detect cancer in patients with undiagnosed cancer, as previous studies used tests only in patients already known to have cancer.
“The results are an important first step for early cancer detection tests because they showed a good detection rate for people who had cancer and an excellent specificity rate for those who did not have cancer. In people with a positive test, it took less than two months to confirm the diagnosis if they had cancer and it took a bit longer if they did not have cancer primarily because physicians opted to perform imaging studies and then repeat them a second time several months later to investigate the possibility of a cancer diagnosis,” Deb Schrag, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, USA, senior study author, said in a statement.
The scientists are now conducting further studies are now underway including a major randomised clinical trial enrolling 140,000 asymptomatic people in England to investigate the clinical effectiveness of MCED testing on cancer outcomes.

TORONTO, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - SCI Group, a leading Canadian 3PL specializing in e-commerce fulfillment and Transportation Management, has partnered with Bench, an athleisure clothing brand, to create a cross-border ecommerce fulfilment solution for the U.S. market leveraging duty savings made available through Section 321. This direct-to-consumer strategy enables Bench to deliver to e-commerce customers in the U.S. directly from Canada, creating cost efficiencies without any impact to delivery times.
Beginning in early 2021, SCI and Bench have built their relationship based on trust, strategic planning and proven results through the expansion of Bench's Canadian, coast-to-coast wholesale business. This led to a new opportunity to expand Bench's business into the USA with the SCI team building out a cross-border solution through their expertise in southbound ecommerce fulfillment and Section 321.
"We've had a great experience partnering with SCI to develop a new coast-to-coast distribution strategy for our Bench brand that services both the Canadian and U.S. direct-to-consumer market," says Victor Levis, CFO/COO at Freemark Apparel Brands International. "SCI's team worked closely with us to help us understand the benefits of Section 321 and guided us through the process from start to finish. Thanks to their expertise we've been able to expand our business and conveniently reach U.S. consumers."
Section 321 is an exemption in the Canada-US-Mexico free trade agreement that allows shipments of products valued at $800US or less to enter the U.S., from Canada, duty free. For direct-to-consumer (DTC) ecommerce retailers, this offers an opportunity to reduce their cost per unit through waived or refunded import duties on items that enter Canada bound for U.S. recipients, without effecting the customer experience.
"We're thrilled to be able to drive this North American e-commerce strategy for Bench from Canada," says Dave Mack, Vice President, Omni-channel Retail at SCI. "By consolidating distribution in strategic centers in Canada, Bench is able to reduce their inventory carrying costs and turn products faster, while driving out duty and tariff costs"
To learn more about Section 321 and how SCI can help reduce your cross-border costs, please visit: https://www.sci.ca/section-321
Inspired by an active 24-hour lifestyle, Bench is a brand that designs, sources, and markets clothing and accessories for men, women, and children. Born in the heart of Manchester, England, it originated in the late '80s as a niche t-shirt brand, taking influence from the music and the skate scenes. Bench is dedicated to design clothing that embraces individuality and supports all lifestyles. From heritage hoodies to iconic track suits, Bench's wardrobe staples focus on multipurpose components that meet the modern needs of city dwellers. Learn more at Bench.ca.
SCI makes North American businesses even better by offering our clients a suite of innovative supply chain solutions in the omni-channel retail, technology, health, beauty and wellness sectors.

Gold Price (XAU/USD), Chart, and Analysis
- Two-year US Treasury yields continue to soar.
- Gold eyes support below $1,700/oz.
Tuesday’s US inflation report showed that price pressures in America are not abating and that further rate hikes are needed. Yesterday’s report showed inflation rising on a month-on-month basis, surprising market participants who had priced-in and positioned for a move lower. Financial markets are now showing a 35% chance that there will be a 100 basis point rate hike at the September 21 meeting. These heightened expectations can be seen in the interest-rate sensitive Two-year US Treasury which is now trading with a 15-year high yield of 3.78%. Higher-for-longer Treasury yields will weigh on gold in the months ahead.

The Fed will also be watching the US Treasury 2-10 year yield spread, a closely followed recession indicator. The spread, negative 33 basis points, is 10 basis points away from the multi-year low made on August 8 this year.
The weekly gold chart shows support at just under $1,700/oz. holding sellers at bay for now. A cluster of prior lows all the way down to $1,667/oz. will likely stem any sell-off although this will leave a gap back to the 50% Fibonacci retracement level at $1,618/oz vulnerable. Recent weekly highs at $1,736/oz. and $1,746/oz. should keep a lid on prices in the near term.
Gold Weekly Price Chart – September 14, 2022
Retail trader data show 87.77% of traders are net-long with the ratio of traders long to short at 7.18 to 1. The number of traders net-long is 6.78% lower than yesterday and 7.72% higher from last week, while the number of traders net-short is 3.89% lower than yesterday and 22.82% lower from last week.
We typically take a contrarian view to crowd sentiment, and the fact traders are net-long suggests Gold prices may continue to fall. Positioning is less net-long than yesterday but more net-long from last week. The combination of current sentiment and recent changes gives us a further mixed Gold trading bias.
What is your view on Gold – bullish or bearish?? You can let us know via the form at the end of this piece or you can contact the author via Twitter @nickcawley1.

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

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Nucor Corporation (NYSE: NUE) today announced guidance for its third quarter ending October 1, 2022. Nucor expects third quarter earnings to be in the range of $6.30 to $6.40 per diluted share. Nucor reported net earnings of $9.67 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2022 and $7.28 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2021.
We expect the steel mills segment earnings to be considerably lower in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter of 2022, due to metal margin contraction and reduced shipping volumes particularly at our sheet and plate mills. The steel products segment is expected to have another strong quarter in the third quarter of 2022, with earnings roughly in-line with the second quarter of 2022. Raw materials segment earnings are expected to be similar to the second quarter of 2022. We continue to believe that 2022 will be the most profitable year in Nucor's history.
During the third quarter, Nucor has repurchased 5.3 million shares at an average price of $122.24 per share (17.5 million shares year-to-date at an average price of $134.99 per share). Nucor has returned more than $2.7 billion to stockholders in the form of share repurchases and dividend payments year-to-date.
Nucor and its affiliates are manufacturers of steel and steel products, with operating facilities in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Products produced include: carbon and alloy steel -- in bars, beams, sheet and plate; hollow structural section tubing; electrical conduit; steel racking; steel piling; steel joists and joist girders; steel deck; fabricated concrete reinforcing steel; cold finished steel; precision castings; steel fasteners; metal building systems; insulated metal panels; overhead doors; steel grating; and wire and wire mesh. Nucor, through The David J. Joseph Company, also brokers ferrous and nonferrous metals, pig iron and hot briquetted iron / direct reduced iron; supplies ferro-alloys; and processes ferrous and nonferrous scrap. Nucor is North America's largest recycler.

Macarthur FC are just one step away from lifting their first piece of silverware and earning rookie coach Dwight Yorke his maiden title after reaching the final of the Australia Cup.
The Bulls ended the magical run of Victorian outfit the Oakleigh Cannons on Wednesday evening, beating the semi-professional outfit 5-2 at Jack Edwards Reserve.
Taking the field just days after Sydney United upset Brisbane Roar to become the first team from outside Australia's top-flight to reach the final, an early Joe Guest wonder strike had the Bulls staring down a similar fate.
But braces from Ulises Davilla and Daniel Arzani and a Jake Hollman strike lifting the A-League Men outfit to a comfortable 5-2 win.
The victory continued the undefeated run of former Manchester United legend Yorke since his arrival in Sydney's southwest and crushed the Cup dreams of the Cannons and romantics hoping for a first-ever all-NPL final.
In what will now be a Western Sydney derby final, the Bulls and former NSL powers United will meet in the decider in Sydney on October 1, with a venue to be announced by Football Australia in the next 48 hours.
Welcoming their foes to Melbourne three days on from becoming champions of Victoria, the Cannons gave the thousands in attendance a reason to believe in miracles when they took the lead through a long-range rocket from Guest.
But goals in quick succession from Davilla and Arzani just before half-time flipped the script, with the hosts dealt a further blow when Aryn Williams went down with a suspected ACL injury to deplete an already decimated defence.
Arzani's second, a Hollman bender from outside the area, and Davilla's second of the contest then completed the rout, with the load of the Cannons' 13 games in 60 days becoming increasingly apparent despite Wade Dekker's late consolation.

New data highlights need for concentrated focus on foundational reading and mathematics skills
NORTH BILLERICA, Mass., Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- While more students are falling behind in foundational reading skills, some schools buck the trend with positive practice in the pandemic's wake, according to new research released by Curriculum Associates today.
The first report, The State of Student Learning in 2022, analyzes reading and mathematics data gathered from nearly two million Grades 1–8 students during the 2021–2022 school year via the edtech company's i-Ready Assessment tool. In a second report, Keys to Unlocking Success, Curriculum Associates identified 301 schools across the country at which students are exceeding learning expectations and conducted research to understand how school leaders are ushering their students and schools toward recovery.
"We're beginning the third full academic year since the pandemic began, and many school communities are still grappling with the impact of the massive 2020 disruptions," said Dr. Kristen Huff, vice president of assessment and research at Curriculum Associates. "The question is no longer if or how the pandemic affected student learning, it is if and how it can recover. It is critical to grow our understanding of what measurable shifts have occurred in student learning as we have more distance from 2020 and more investment in recovery efforts."
The research provides new insights on student learning trends by examining student data in relation to grade-level learning benchmarks—rather than in comparison to other students—to provide a unique view of learning rather than rank. It compares 2021–2022 student data with mid- and pre-pandemic data and also offers qualitative insights on impactful practices for accelerating student learning from leaders at schools that are exceeding expectations.
- Student achievement in reading and math at the end of 2021–2022 has not fully recovered from unfinished learning that occurred during the pandemic.
- The largest gaps in grade-level learning are in those key years where students are building and solidifying foundational reading and math skills.
- Recovery is occurring, with student learning in some areas approaching pre-pandemic levels.
- In some schools, students two or more grade levels below are exceeding expectations and experiencing more substantial learning growth.
The research shows that there are particular and critical points in students' math and reading journeys where they are finding it harder to catch up. Student learning in the critical years of foundational learning—early elementary reading and upper elementary and early middle school mathematics—suffered the greatest setback, with more students falling behind in building essential reading skills that they will need for the rest of their school years and lives. Additionally, students who were further behind before the pandemic are on the slowest trajectory to catch up to grade-level expectations. While data indicates improvements in achievement for historically marginalized students from spring 2021 to spring 2022, the learning inequities that existed long before and were exacerbated by the pandemic persist.
"Continuing to tell the story of the pandemic's impact on student learning and schools' recovery is essential," said Tyrone Holmes, chief inclusion officer at Curriculum Associates. "Our communities and parents need and deserve to know how our students are progressing academically, our education leaders need to know how their schools compare to trends across the nation and hear stories of recovery, and the research community needs to continue to track the true impact to inform policy making."

Kremlin On Ukraine's Security Guarantees Project: Kiev Still Seeks To Join NATO
Faizan Hashmi Published September 14, 2022 | 03:40 PM
MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 14th September, 2022) Ukraine's document on security guarantees has confirmed Kiev's intention to join NATO, thus making reasons for Russia's special military operation even more relevant, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday.
"In general, we are talking about a certain document, and no one is denying that in their understanding, this document must precede Ukraine's accession to NATO, that is, a benchmark for NATO membership remains. Respectively, the main threat to our country remains, and even one of the reasons that made the special military operation necessary is becoming more relevant," Peskov told reporters, commenting on Ukraine's document on security guarantees.

Families of health care workers who died having contracted Covid-19 in the course of their work can now apply for a tax-free payment of €100,000.
The Minister for Health has opened the Death in Service Ex-Gratia Scheme for applications following Cabinet approval of the scheme in March this year.
The payment is open to the families of workers from across the healthcare system who have passed away, including GPs and others working in primary care including administrative staff, disability services staff, private staff in nursing homes and throughout the healthcare system.
According to the Health Protection Surveillance Centre (HPSC), 23 healthcare workers died having contracted Covid-19 as of August 17 2022, with the majority of deaths occurring in the first year of the pandemic.
Speaking about the news, Minister Stephen Donnelly said, "This is an important day and offers another means for us as a country to recognise the significant contribution our healthcare workers made to Ireland’s response to Covid-19. Since March 2020, we have asked them to assume an unknown level of risk in their work, and, unfortunately, many healthcare workers contracted COVID-19 in work and a small number sadly passed away.
"Myself and my colleagues in Government are aware of tragic cases where families have been left without income at a time of extraordinary grief. This payment offers some support from the state to provide for the family’s needs, while also serving as a real acknowledgement of the debt of gratitude all of us across the country feel to the extraordinary sacrifices of their loved ones."
Longford to come to standstill for tragic Westmeath siblings
Longford town will come to a standstill tomorrow (Thursday) ahead of the funeral of two children who died in a car fire on the outskirts of Multyfarnham last Friday.
It is possible that some claims may be paid at the end of 2022, but the majority are expected in 2023.
In order to apply, a family will need to complete a claim form available on the Pobal website. This should be read in conjunction with the claimant guideline document and the completed claim form and supporting documentation can be submitted to Pobal in either of the following ways: a scanned copy submitted with supporting documentation by email to DIS@pobal.ie, or send all documentation to Pobal by post to: DIS Section, Pobal, Building 1000, Unit 1102, City Gate Business Park, Mahon, Cork, T12 RY76

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- American Trucking Associations leaders, on behalf of the association and the industry, are celebrating and thanking the nation's truck drivers this week as part of National Truck Driver Appreciation Week.
"Every day, our country's 3.7 million truck drivers deliver America's freight safely, securely and efficiently – they are the glue that keeps our economy and nation together," said ATA President and CEO Chris Spear. "And while they should be appreciated all year round, we are proud to recognize them this week during National Truck Driver Appreciation Week."
National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, September 11-17, provides the trucking industry an opportunity to formally recognize the efforts of professional truck drivers. State trucking associations, industry suppliers, law enforcement and motor carriers of all sizes from coast to coast are set to host appreciation events for the men and women who safely deliver more than 70% of the country's total freight tonnage.
More than 80% of American cities and towns exclusively rely on trucks to deliver their goods, and driving a truck is the top job in 29 states.
As part of the weeklong celebration, ATA is bringing its rolling classroom, Interstate One, to Capitol Hill today and inviting policymakers to talk to members of America's Road Team about the industry and try their hand at a driving simulator.
"Our drivers – whether they are delivering emergency relief goods or simply doing their normal runs – can be counted on to get the job done," said ATA Chairman Harold Sumerford Jr. "We should thank them every day, but I call on my fellow Americans – along with our industry – to recognize these hardworking men and women this week."
ATA members celebrate NTDAW with cookouts and other events, and Trucking Moves America Forward is recognizing drivers with a series of billboards around the country in partnership with many state trucking associations. TMAF will also be thanking truck drivers and sharing need-to-know industry facts on the radio airwaves on Red Eye Radio, Westwood One Sports and Westwood One talk radio programs. To participate in NTDAW, or show how you're celebrating drivers – post your events on social media with the hashtag #ThankATrucker.
National Truck Driver Appreciation Week is sponsored by the Allied Committee for the Trucking Industry (ACT I). ATA and ACT I are asking the motoring public to thank professional drivers through fuel pump advertising this month.

American Trucking Associations is the largest national trade association for the trucking industry. Through a federation of 50 affiliated state trucking associations and industry-related conferences and councils, ATA is the voice of the industry America depends on most to move our nation's freight.

OTCQX: GLGDF
2,192 g/t AgEq over 1.3m within 18.2m of 241 g/t AgEq at El Nayar
905 g/t AgEq over 1.6m within 17.3m of 132 g/t AgEq at Gran Cabrera
HALIFAX, NS, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) (OTCQX: GLGDF) ("GoGold", "the Company") is pleased to release the results of 6 drill holes from the El Nayar area and 15 drill holes from the Gran Cabrera area within Los Ricos North property. The El Nayar and Gran Cabrera areas are targets of the Los Ricos North regional exploration drilling program. Hole LRGNY-21-027 at El Nayar intersected 2,192 g/t silver equivalent ("AgEq") over 1.3m, contained within 18.2m of 241 g/t AgEq. At Gran Cabrera, hole LRGCB-22-020 intersected 905 g/t AgEq over 1.6m, contained within 17.3m of 132 g/t AgEq. See Table 1 for a breakdown of gold and silver values at El Nayar and Table 2 for Gran Cabrera.
"This drilling represents results from exploration from outside of our resource areas and are some of the first results from these new targets. These targets will require future drilling which will be aimed at developing future resources. At Gran Cabrera, we encountered voids in our drilling due to historical underground mining on half of the holes which we drilled, with the voids averaging about 4 metres. As we continue exploring this area, our focus is locating areas where the high grade portion of the veins has not been mined out," said Brad Langille, President and CEO. "We've shifted some of our drilling rigs to Los Ricos South as a re-evaluation of our data has opened up additional areas for potential growth of the mineral resource. In addition to our drilling, we continue to work on consolidation of additional ground in Los Ricos South and expect an update on that in the near future."
El Nayar is located approximately 6 kilometres north-west of the La Trini deposit within Los Ricos North (see Figure 3). It consists of multiple subvertical veins and stockwork mineralization, and limited historical underground mining. La Castellana vein is an epithermal argentiferous quartz vein ranging from 1m to 2m in width and averaging about 1.20 m. The vein contains minor credits in gold, zinc, lead and copper in addition to the silver. The mineralization is a mixture of sulphide and oxide species; galena, sphalerite, pyrite, unidentified argentiferous minerals (mostly black), copper carbonates and some manganese minerals were observed underground.
Gran Cabrera is located approximately 2 kilometres northwest of La Trini (see Figure 3). The Gran Cabrera mega-system contains stockworks, breccia hosted ore bodies, and large vein feeder sub-systems at the intersection of the Sierra Madre and the Trans Mexican Volcanic Arc. Within the property there are more than fifteen significant old precious metals mines that historically produced high grade silver-gold ore periodically over a period of more than 350 years beginning with their discovery by early Spanish Conquistadors. The Company's exploration team has conducted a detailed sampling and mapping program within the last year and has identified dozens of historical underground workings along an E-W trending structure over a distance of 1,700 metres along strike and widths extending more than 20 metres.
VRIFY is a platform being used by companies to communicate with investors using 360° virtual tours of remote mining assets, 3D models and interactive presentations. VRIFY can be accessed by website and with the VRIFY iOS and Android apps.

The Company's two exploration projects at its Los Ricos Property are in Jalisco state, Mexico. The Los Ricos South Project began in March 2019 and an initial Mineral Resource was announced on July 29, 2020 which disclosed a Measured & Indicated Mineral Resource of 63.7 million ounces AgEq grading 199 g/t AgEq contained in 10.0 million tonnes, and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 19.9 million ounces AgEq grading 190 g/t AgEq contained in 3.3 million tonnes. An initial PEA on the project was announced on January 20, 2021 indicating an NPV5% of US$295M.
The Los Ricos North Project was launched in March 2020 and an initial Mineral Resource was announced on December 7, 2021, which disclosed an Indicated Mineral Resource of 87.8 million ounces AgEq grading 122 g/t AgEq contained in 22.3 million tonnes, and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 73.2 million ounces AgEq grading 111 g/t AgEq contained in 20.5 million tonnes. The Company has a drill program for an additional 100,000 metres of drilling for 2022 in place.
The diamond drill core (HQ size) is geologically logged, photographed and marked for sampling. When the sample lengths are determined, the full core is sawn with a diamond blade core saw with one half of the core being bagged and tagged for assay. The remaining half portion is returned to the core trays for storage and/or for metallurgical test work.
The sealed and tagged sample bags are transported to the ActLabs facility in Zacatecas, Mexico. ActLabs crushes the samples and prepares 200-300 gram pulp samples with ninety percent passing Tyler 150 mesh (106μm). The pulps are assayed for gold using a 50-gram charge by fire assay (Code 1A2-50) and over limits greater than 10 grams per tonne are re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 1A3-50). Silver and multi-element analysis is completed using total digestion (Code 1F2 Total Digestion ICP). Over limits greater than 100 grams per tonne silver are re-assayed using a gravimetric finish (Code 8-Ag FA-GRAV Ag).
Quality assurance and quality control ("QA/QC") procedures monitor the chain-of-custody of the samples and includes the systematic insertion and monitoring of appropriate reference materials (certified standards, blanks and duplicates) into the sample strings. The results of the assaying of the QA/QC material included in each batch are tracked to ensure the integrity of the assay data. All results stated in this announcement have passed GoGold's QA/QC protocols.

A railroad strike -- and the economic damage it could cause -- is getting closer to reality. About 60,000 union members who work for the nation's freight railroads, including engineers and conductors, are set to go on strike Friday if an agreement isn't reached on new contracts. Without them on the job, those trains will not run, nor will many commuter and Amtrak trains that run over freight rail lines.
Here's what else you need to know to Get Up to Speed and On with Your Day.
(You can get "5 Things You Need to Know Today" delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up here.)
1. Primaries
The 2022 primary season came to a close on Tuesday, with New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Delaware holding a slate of key elections that could play a major role in helping decide which party controls the House and Senate. A great deal of attention is on New Hampshire, where Republicans are selecting their nominee to take on Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan in what could be one of the most competitive Senate races. Hassan won by just 1,000 votes in 2016, and Republicans have seen New Hampshire as a potential pick-up opportunity in their bid for control of a Senate that's currently split 50-50. Also in New Hampshire, CNN projects Karoline Leavitt, a 25-year-old ex-Trump aide, will win the GOP primary in the 1st Congressional District and face Democrat Chris Pappas in November.
2. Inflation
Food prices in the US are far higher than they were a year ago, according to new data released Tuesday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Overall, grocery prices jumped 13.5% and restaurant menu prices increased by 8%. Egg prices soared 39.8%, while flour got 23.3% more expensive. Milk rose 17% and the price of bread jumped 16.2%. Meat, poultry, fruits and vegetables also grew costlier. On a monthly basis, consumer prices rose 0.1% from July, according to the Consumer Price Index, which measures a basket of consumer goods and services. The reading came as a surprise to investors and sent US stocks plummeting Tuesday in their worst day since June 2020.
3. Abortion
Lawmakers in West Virginia passed a bill Tuesday that will prohibit nearly all abortions except to save the life of the mother or in certain cases that involve rape or incest. The bill would significantly limit access to abortion in a state where the procedure is currently legal up to 20 weeks post-fertilization. It now heads to the Republican governor's desk for signature. Separately, South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham introduced a bill Tuesday that would ban abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy, the most significant proposal by Republicans in Congress to curtail the procedure since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade three months ago. And in Indiana, a near-total abortion ban is set to go into effect later this week.
4. Twitter
Elon Musk is fighting to get out of his $44 billion deal to buy Twitter, but the social media company's shareholders plan to hold him to it. The vast majority of Twitter shareholders voted in favor of Musk's takeover deal on Tuesday and said they are ready to complete the merger no later than Thursday. The vote came days after Musk's third letter to Twitter seeking to terminate the deal over a $7.75 million payment the company is said to have made to a former employee who later blew the whistle about Twitter's alleged security and privacy vulnerabilities. The whistleblower, Twitter's former head of security Peiter "Mudge" Zatko, testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday about his concerns, including allegations that Twitter possibly has foreign intelligence agents on its payroll.
5. China typhoon
China has issued its highest-level alert as Typhoon Muifa is expected to make landfall near Shanghai today. Forecasts show winds will be equivalent to a category 1 Atlantic hurricane, exceeding the first three typhoons of the season. Authorities in China's eastern province of Zhejiang ordered ships to return to port, told schools to close and evacuated tourists from nearby islands, according to a Reuters report. Waves of up to 16 feet are expected near China's busiest container seaport in the commercial hub of Shanghai. Several airlines in the city have canceled flights today and at least 13,000 people in the city have been evacuated, according to state media.

TODAY'S NUMBER
4 months
That's how long an unruly passenger on an American Airlines flight was sentenced to serve in prison for interfering with flight crew members, the Department of Justice said in a news release. The passenger's violent behavior on the February 2021 flight from Dallas to Los Angeles prompted the flight to reroute to Phoenix. According to data from the FAA, the past year set a record for unruly passenger behavior, ending with nearly 6,000 reports.
TODAY'S QUOTE
"This immediate, massive spike was beyond what we had anticipated."
-- Ian Petchenik, a spokesman for the aviation tracker website Flightradar24, after the plane carrying Queen Elizabeth II's coffin set a new record Tuesday as the most-tracked flight ever. About five million people followed the trip from Edinburgh to London, data from the site showed. That tops the previous record achieved last month during US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's controversial visit to Taiwan. Pelosi's flight to Taipei was tracked by about 2.9 million people.

Vertiv (NYSE:NYSE:VRT) went public in 2019 through a SPAC merger with GS Acquisition Holdings Corp. Unlike most other SPACs, this is a rare high-quality SPAC co-sponsored by Goldman Sachs (GS) and David Cote, the former CEO of Honeywell (HON). The company has performed exceptionally well since going public, up almost 200% in less than two years. However, the company got caught in an unprecedented supply chain disruption earlier this year. This along with the broad market sell-off caused to stock to plummet by over 50% from its all-time high, now trading at around $12.7.
Vertiv has a large TAM and is poised to benefit from the growth of data centers thanks to its leading position in the digital infrastructure space. While the macro environment remains unstable, the company's outlook mentioned in the recent earnings suggests a significant improvement in financial performance over the coming year, as demand continues to increase. Therefore I rate the company as a buy.
Most people think of Nvidia (NVDA), Equinix (EQIX), or Digital Realty (DLR) when investing in the data center space. However, I believe Vertiv is another pick and shovel data center play that investors can consider. Vertiv can be considered the backbone of data centers. It provides comprehensive digital infrastructure solutions to data centers and communication and industrial companies, which include thermal management, power management, infrastructure hardware, services, etc. The company has a presence in 130+ countries with over 270 service centers. Approximately 70% of total revenue is currently generated from data centers. The company's client list is very impressive, including some of the biggest companies in the world, such as Amazon (AMZN), Google (GOOG), Walmart (WMT), Verizon (VZ), and more.
Vertiv is benefiting from the growth of data centers. Thanks to strong secular trends like cloud computing, IoT (internet of things), video streaming, and gaming, the number of data circulating exploded in the past few years. The increased adoption of digitization and higher requirements for connectivity caused a significant increase in demand for data centers. According to the company, the TAM (total addressable market) for its data segment alone is around $20 billion and is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 5% moving forward. The total TAM is currently $29.5 billion when accounting also the communication and industrial segment.
Rob Johnson, CEO, on market tailwinds:
Cloud and colocation remain robust. You have seen this in the cloud growth rates reported by all major cloud providers. AWS reported last week that their cloud business increased 33% in the second quarter and believes that we are still in the early stages of enterprise and public sector cloud adoption. Certainly, the growth in cloud market supports this view; data growth is not slowing down. Our view on the enterprise and small to medium business remain consistent from Q1 and we believe edge applications will continue to provide growth and lift for these markets.
The company also has a leading market position with strong competitive advantages. It is currently the leader in 3 out of the 4 markets it operates in, as shown in the slide below. This is especially important in an inflationary environment as it gives the company strong pricing power compared to its peers. Vertiv's business model is also a lot more resilient than its peers. While around 40% of revenue is contributed by project-based sales such as initial deployment and services, the remaining 60% of revenue is flow and recurring-based. Which includes revenue from ongoing maintenance and replacement. These expenses are non-discretionary for customers as they need their data center to be up and running at all times. The large portion of recurring revenue is able to provide the company with a lot more stability.
Vertiv recently reported its second-quarter earnings and the results remain mixed as it continues to face significant pressure from the macro environment. The company reported net sales of $1.4 billion, up 11% YoY (year over year) from $1.26 billion. The growth is largely driven by strong demand, with quarterly orders up 17% YoY (pricing contributed a 10% increase). Revenue from the US and EMEA continue to show resilience, up 14.6% and 16% respectively. While the revenue from APAC trailed behind with an increase of only 2.3%, largely caused by the lockdown in China. The company also ended the quarter with a record high backlog of $4.4 billion, up 39% from the end of 2021.
While sales growth was decent, the bottom line continues to suffer due to macro pressures. Adjusted operating profit decreased 38.8% from $134 million to $82 million. This is due to a significant increase in material and freight costs caused by inflation, as well as FX headwinds. This resulted in adjusted operating margins dropping from 10.6% to 5.9%. Adjusted diluted EPS also decreased from $0.31 to $0.1, largely attributed to the drop in operating profit. Free cash flow was negative $(232) million compared to $41 million a year ago. The drop was due to increased inventories to address the volatile supply chain dynamics and increased backlog.
Rob Johnson, CEO, on the company's outlook
In summary, our demand remains strong. We are currently filling our backlog for the second half of the - for next year and we expect these favorable conditions to continue.
Fortunately, thanks to strong demand and supply chain initiatives, the outlook appears to be very encouraging. The company expects Q3 results to improve significantly both YoY and sequentially. Net sales growth is forecasted to be 20%, up from 11% this quarter. Adjusted operating profit to be around $140 million compared to $82 million, with adjusted operating profit margin increasing from 5.9% to 9.4%. Diluted EPS is also expected to increase from $0.1 this quarter to $0.23 in Q3. The management team expects a very strong FY23 citing strong secular tailwinds and increasing demand. They now expect adjusted operating profit for FY23 to increase by approximately 50%.
I believe the biggest risks in regard to Vertiv are currency headwinds and ongoing supply chain disruption. Currently, approximately 50% of the company's total revenue is generated from EMEA and Asia Pacific. Due to its global presence, Vertiv is now facing strong currency headwinds as the dollar continues to grind higher. The company already took a $45 million profit hit due to FX in the latest quarter, or 4% of sales. If the dollar continues to persist at high levels, FX headwinds are likely to put further pressure on the company's bottom line. While the supply chain disruption seems to be easing and the company has been actively taking initiatives to improve inventory management, the situation remains very unstable. The volatility may continue to post unprecedented risks on Vertiv if the situation were to worsen again.
In conclusion, the current sell-off appears to be an overreaction. Vertiv is operating in a large TAM and is facing substantial tailwinds as the demand for data centers continues to increase. It also has a market leading position with a blue-chip client base, giving it strong pricing power compared to peers. While the latest quarterly earnings appear to be mixed, the outlook is very encouraging with major improvement across all metrics. As demand continues to ramp up and supply chain disruption eases, I believe the company will rebound significantly. Therefore I rate Vertiv as a buy at the current price.

Wayfinder Family Services recreation program champions accessibility and inclusion
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Youth ages 11-17 will ride tandem bicycles from Culver City to Manhattan Beach on Sunday, September 18th at 8:00 a.m., as part of Wayfinder Family Services' recreation program for youth and adults who are blind or visually impaired.
Children, teens and adults who are blind or visually impaired enjoy empowering experiences at no cost as part of Wayfinder's recreation program. In addition to the tandem bike ride, adventures throughout the year include deep sea fishing, surfing, skiing, paralympic sports like goalball and an overnight camp experience. These experiences build confidence, trust, leadership and build a sense of community.
"Wayfinder's recreation program advances equity for those with disabilities. This was the bedrock of our founder Norm Kaplan's goal: create the same opportunities for children and youth who are blind as their sighted peers. Nearly 70 years later, we have continued his inclusive mission and have expanded our services as a statewide organization," said Wayfinder president and chief operating officer Jay Allen.
Tandem bike ride participants will gather at Syd Kronenthaler Park in Culver City and partner with a sighted volunteer or staff from Wayfinder's recreation program who have been specially trained to pilot the bicycles. Cyclists will use the bike path to make their way to the Manhattan Beach pier where they will enjoy lunch, then return to Culver City on the same trail.
"Getting outdoors and doing something physical is critical for mental health, especially since the pandemic. I'm grateful that we can provide these opportunities for those with disabilities because they can often be excluded. Now more than ever, inclusion matters and I'm proud that Wayfinder continues to champion people of all abilities," said Allen.
Formerly known as Junior Blind, Wayfinder Family Services is the place to turn for people facing the greatest challenges. The organization provides expert, individualized support and services to children, youth, adults and families—from people with vision impairment and developmental disabilities to children in need of temporary shelter and foster care and adoption.

(CNN)Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited newly liberated Izium in the northeastern region of Kharkiv on Wednesday, five days after the country's forces recaptured the city.
Photographs on the Facebook page of an army unit showed Zelensky at a ceremony in the main square to raise the Ukrainian flag over the city's administrative building. Hanna Maliar, the Deputy Minister of Defense, was also present.
"Earlier, when we looked up, we always looked for the blue sky. Today, when we look up, we are looking for only one thing -- the flag of Ukraine," Zelensky said in a post on the presidential Telegram channel.
"Our blue-yellow flag is already flying in the de-occupied Izium. And it will be so in every Ukrainian city and village. We are moving in only one direction -- forward and towards victory.
"I want to thank you for saving our people, our hearts, children and future," Zelensky said, according to a statement released on the presidential website.
"It has been extremely difficult for you in recent months. Therefore, I ask you to take care of yourselves, because you are the most valuable asset we have," he said.
"It may be possible to temporarily occupy the territories of our state. But it is definitely impossible to occupy our people, the Ukrainian people," he said.
There was a minute's silence at the ceremony to remember those who had been lost during military operations.
Ukrainian forces took back control of Izium on Saturday, marking a huge strategic blow to Russia's military assault in the east.

MANILA, Philippines – The provincial government of Maguindanao said it was hopeful that the proposed division of the province into two would allow residents better access to basic services.
In a Rappler Talk interview on Wednesday, September 14, Maguindanao Provincial Administrator Cyrus Torreña shared that the geography of the province hampers them from reaching far-flung areas.
“We are in the municipality of Buluan, which is in the end portion of [what could become] Maguindanao del Sur… If you are going to Bongo island, it will take you more than 24 hours from Buluan. By that alone, the delivery of basic services is at stake,” Torreña explained.
“Even that Bongo island does not have easy access to hospitals,” he added. “Residents know that the delivery of basic services will be better if there are two provincial governments.”
Hundreds of thousands of registered voters in Maguindanao are casting their ballots in a plebiscite on Saturday, September 17, to determine whether they want to ratify the law which divided Maguindanao into Maguindanao del Norte and Maguindanao del Sur.
Proponents of the measure in Congress had said the split seeks to address challenges on providing public health care, education, and transportation to the most remote villages.
No security threats
Torreña said it’s “all systems go” on Saturday, asserting they have prepared enough to proceed with the plebiscite.
“So far, there are no [security threats],” Torreña said. “The preparations are better for this than the preparations for the national and local elections last May.”
The Maguindanao provincial government allotted P89.1 million to fund the conduct of the plebiscite, which was originally expected to be conducted in September 2021, but was postponed by the Comelec until after the 2022 elections due to preparations for the national polls.
No opposition
On Saturday, polling places will open from 7 am to 3 pm. The announcement of plebiscite results is expected on Sunday, September 18.
Local officials have been predicting an easy win for the “yes” vote, amid lack of visible campaigns to oppose the proposed split of the province.
“If anyone wants to stand and say they will vote ‘no,’ come to me and let’s talk so I can give them their space,” Torreña said. “We welcome opposition if they exist.”
The division of Maguindanao has been a long journey, dating back to as early as 2006, when the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao formed the province of Shariff Kabunsuan from the 10 municipalities in Maguindanao.
A succeeding referendum resulted in a landslide victory for split proponents, but the new province was dissolved only two years later after the Supreme Court found its creation unconstitutional. – Rappler.com

DALLAS, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Does social media invite public discourse or discourage it? Is the public aware of how large companies are taking advantage of them? Jeffrey B. Simon, a law professor of Mass Tort litigation, legal commentator, podcaster, and a person who for more than thirty years has strived to improve public health and public accountability through the civil justice system, is working to find more answers when it comes to public censorship and public social issues.
In a recent article published by Jeffrey B. Simon "Twitter Canceled Me For No Reason and Why You Should Care", Mr. Simon discusses in detail his unexplained cancellation by Twitter, ads disguised as news that both drive and mask the core mercantile objectives of platform providers, politically motivated news manipulation, privilege and suspension account issues, the impenetrable customer service shield between itself and the user, and topical legal issues, including matters raised by the Jan. 6 Committee hearings, U.S. Supreme Court rulings on reproductive choice, gun control, Congressman Matt Gaetz's (@RepMattGaetz) offensive tweet, as well as Congresswoman's Marjorie Taylor Greene (@RepMTG) use of Twitter to attack a Biden administration official, Admiral Rachel Levine, for her identity.
"Twitter practices a double-standard, where, on a platform that is supposed to exist as a global public square for open discourse, hate-speech by public figures is tolerated while civil dialogue by private citizens is permanently censored for non-disclosed, seemingly unidentifiable reasons. The 'appeal' process for account suspension that Twitter describes in the Twitter User Agreement is, in practice, as illusory and inconsistent as Twitter's self-proclaimed commitment to free expression, notes Mr. Simon.
Mr. Simon asks important questions and provides compelling answers as he works to inform the public about misinformation and deceptive sales tactics deployed by several of America's largest companies that have caused widespread harm. Mr. Simon has also launched his official podcast "Outside Counsel," which draws on his more than 30 years of experience to describe the corporate repeal of consumer protections and regulatory laws that fueled the opioid epidemic, the deadliest drug-related public health crisis in American history Are companies that are too big to fail also too powerful to be held accountable? Mr. Simon addresses these issues in his recently published article and within the first ten episodes which are now available on all major podcast platforms including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts.

A teenage human trafficking victim who was initially charged with first-degree murder after she stabbed her accused rapist to death was sentenced Tuesday in an Iowa court to five years of closely supervised probation and ordered to pay $150,000 restitution to the man's family.
Pieper Lewis, 17, was sentenced Tuesday after she pleaded last year to involuntary manslaughter and willful injury in the June 2020 killing of 37-year-old Zachary Brooks of Des Moines. Both charges were punishable by up to 10 years in prison.
Polk County District judge David M. Porter on Tuesday deferred those prison sentences, meaning that if Lewis violates any portion of her probation, she could be sent to prison to serve that 20-year term.
As for being required to pay the estate of her rapist, "this court is presented with no other option," Porter said, noting the restitution is mandatory under Iowa law that has been upheld by the Iowa Supreme Court.
Lewis was 15 when she stabbed Brooks more than 30 times in a Des Moines apartment. Officials have said Lewis was a runaway who was seeking to escape an abusive life with her adopted mother and was sleeping in the hallways of a Des Moines apartment building when a 28-year-old man took her in before forcibly trafficking her to other men for sex.
Lewis said one of those men was Brooks and that he had raped her multiple times in the weeks before his death. She recounted being forced at knifepoint by the 28-year-old man to go with Brooks to his apartment for sex. She told officials that after Brooks had raped her yet again, she grabbed a knife from a bedside table and stabbed Brooks in a fit of rage.
Police and prosecutors have not disputed that Lewis was sexually assaulted and trafficked. But prosecutors have argued that Brooks was asleep at the time he was stabbed and not an immediate danger to Lewis.
Iowa is not among the dozens of states that have a so-called safe harbor law that gives trafficking victims at least some level of criminal immunity.
Lewis, who earned her GED while being held in juvenile detention, acknowledged in a statement prior to her sentencing that she struggled with the structure of her detention, including "why I was treated like fragile glass" or wasn't allowed to communicate with her friends or family.
"My spirit has been burned, but still glows through the flames," she read from a statement she had prepared. "Hear me roar, see me glow, and watch me grow."
"I am a survivor," she added.
The Associated Press does not typically name victims of sexual assault, but Lewis agreed to have her name used previously in stories about her case.
Prosecutors took issue with Lewis calling herself a victim in the case and said she failed to take responsibility for stabbing Brooks and "leaving his kids without a father."
The judge peppered Lewis with repeated requests to explain what poor choices she made that led up to Brooks' stabbing and expressed concern that she sometimes did not want to follow rules set for her in juvenile lockup.
"The next five years of your life will be full of rules you disagree with, I'm sure of it," Porter said. He later added, "This is the second chance that you've asked for. You don't get a third."
Karl Schilling with the Iowa Organization for Victim Assistance said a bill to create a safe harbor law for trafficking victims passed the Iowa House earlier this year, but stalled in the Senate under concerns from law enforcement groups that it was too broad.
"There was a working group established to iron out the issues," Shilling said. "Hopefully it will be taken up again next year."
Iowa does have an affirmative defense law that gives some leeway to victims of crime if the victim committed the violation "under compulsion by another's threat of serious injury, provided that the defendant reasonably believed that such injury was imminent."
Prosecutors argued Tuesday that Lewis waived that affirmative defense when she pleaded guilty to manslaughter and willful injury.

The Stakes Are High, as 68% of People Reported that a Great Corporate Gift Would Make Them More Likely to Stay with Their Current Employer
LONDON, Sept. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- WeGift, the industry leader in digital payouts and rewards, today shared the findings of a consumer survey about corporate gifting and recognition. It's fun! There's a lot of good stuff in here. We'll get there. But, tl;dr, buy them gift cards. 80% of respondents reported that they would be happy to receive gift cards, easily beating even cash, which clocked in at 68%.
A representative sample of 554 United States residents was asked a number of questions about their experiences with corporate gifts and incentives. 450 respondents, 81% of those surveyed, have received a corporate gift, although it may not always have felt like a gift. The results paint the picture of employers trying - although not always succeeding - to recognize their employees and thank them for their service.
Of course, gift giving is tricky for anyone, and even harder when an organization has to select a single gift for many recipients. No surprise then, that:
- Only 38% of respondents "regularly use" the corporate merchandise they received. A brazen 5% were able to regift the items.
- Plants are well received! And then abandoned. 83% of respondents either "liked" or "loved" the plants they received as gifts. Sadly, 21% of respondents report that the plant is no longer alive.
- Branded clothing seems like a great way to reward employees while showing off the logo. Unfortunately for 11% of respondents, that clothing didn't fit.
- Finally, edible gifts may be the riskiest of all. While 79% of respondents ate and liked the food they received, a whopping 31% of respondents reported being allergic. That may be the gift that keeps on giving.
While gifts may seem like a fun bonus, they really matter, and employees pay attention. 41% of respondents reported that a great corporate gift would make them much more likely to stay with their current employer, while only 32% reported that it would have no impact on their tenure. With such a tight labor market, employers should make delighting their employees with a great gift a priority or risk seeing increased turnover.
"This research shows what we've known for a long time at WeGift; the right gifts truly have an impact on employee satisfaction and productivity," said Nat Salvione, vice president of sales at WeGift. "Employers mean well, but gift giving is difficult for anyone, and even more so when one gift is intended to make dozens, hundreds or even thousands of employees happy. Gift cards are an incredible gift because they give employees choice, and they then choose something joyful and memorable."
In fact, gift cards came out on top in this survey as well. When asked to select which gifts they would "be happy to receive," gift cards were the runaway winner at 80%. Cash (68%), food (51%), branded merchandise or clothing (48%) and a plant (37%) completed the top 5.
This survey reflects national trends. The National Retail Federation has found that gift cards have been the most-requested holiday gift for 15 years in a row.

Evan Ferguson has been praised by Brighton’s interim head coach.
Brighton’s interim manager Andrew Crofts has been speaking to the media about Ireland under-21 striker Evan Ferguson.
Ferguson made his first team debut for the Seagulls under Graham Potter last season but Crofts believes Potter’s sudden departure will be no barrier to the 17-year-old Dubliner’s development.
Ferguson scored one and assisted another against Forest Green in the Carabao Cup last month, before bagging a hat-trick for the Brighton under-21s a couple of weeks later.
As a result, Brighton fans are clamouring to see the number nine around the first-team more regularly, and their wishes could soon be answered.
Ferguson will get Brighton chances this season.
“He has been in and around the first team in terms of a lot of training and then the cup games and a couple of Premier League squads”, Crofts told reporters.
“It is a case of making sure he is getting his game time regularly to help him develop.
“Obviously scoring the hat-trick against Leicester [in Premier League 2] – and some hat-trick it was – was great.
High praise for @Evan_Ferguson9 from our interim first team head coach, Andrew Crofts. 👏
— Brighton & Hove Albion (@OfficialBHAFC) September 14, 2022
Powerful.
Crofts went on to discuss the youngster’s various different strengths, reserving special praise for the physical elements of his game.
“It’s that fine balance of what Evan needs. He is progressing well and it is just making sure his game time stays where it’s at and he keeps pushing to see where he can get in terms of in and around the first team squad.
“He has got a lot of different strengths. For a 17-year-old, he is physically very good in terms of handling that side of the game, he is a very powerful boy.
“He has got wonderful technique in terms of finishing – he knows how to find the back of the net in lots of different ways.”
