GLENS FALLS, N.Y. (NEWS10) – On Friday, the city of Glens Falls announced plans to start giving a fresh look to a sports area long in need. The basketball courts at East Field Recreation Center are in for a thorough once-over.
The city announced that it will begin refurbishing the courts this fall, following a signed contract and certificate with a contractor ready to take on the job. The contractor is interested in getting to work on the aging courts as soon as next week.
A pre-construction meeting is set for Tuesday, Sept. 20, at 9:30 a.m. at the East Field courts. The courts will be closed as refurbishment gets going, a process that both the city and contractor expect to complete within the next four weeks. Weather-based variables could cause those expectations to change as things move along.
East Field is located on Dix Avenue in Glens Falls’ northeast end. In addition to basketball, it hosts a playground, indoor pool, ice skating rink and East Field, the home of the Glens Falls Dragons baseball team.

With the launch of the iPhone 14, on September 7, several models of Apple’s smartphone had their prices reduced here.
This is because with a new iPhone on the market, previous generations automatically depreciate, making the devices cheaper.
So, if you are a fan of Apple products, this is the best time to buy an iPhone, as they are cheaper and the new model has not yet arrived in Brazil.
Next, tilt separated the best iPhones for you who want, in short, to buy a cell phone from the apple or update your device.
All models on the list below are compatible with the 5G network, which has already reached 15 Brazilian capitals. It’s not a necessity yet, but if you plan to keep your phone for a few years, it’s worth securing the new technology.
iPhone SE (3rd generation) (128GB)
Price: from BRL 4,699 to BRL 3,419.10 (27% discount)
It has the same design as the iPhone 8 — and its predecessor —, but has an A15 Bionic processor, the most modern Apple has. The low-cost model is the most basic and simple that Apple currently has. The iPhone SE can be found cheaper on Amazon than on Apple’s official website.
iPhone 12 (128GB)
Price: from BRL 6,999 to BRL 4,920.05 (30% discount)
The iPhone 12 has an A14 Bionic processor and cameras that perform well in low light. By comparison, the iPhone 14 has improved performance and battery life, a 120Hz display, and upgraded rear camera sensors. It can be found cheaper on Amazon than on the Apple website.
iPhone 12 mini (128GB)
Price: from BRL 5,699 to BRL 4,236 (26% discount)
This model shares the same specs as the iPhone 12, from processor to camera setup. What changes is its size. Thus, the model has an older design, lower performance and battery life, in addition to not so updated rear camera sensors, compared to the iPhone 14. The model was discontinued by Apple.
iPhone 13 (128GB)
Price: from BRL 7,599 to BRL 5,799 (24% discount)
The iPhone 13 offers more speed, slightly better cameras, and longer battery life compared to its predecessor. Regarding the iPhone 14, there are many similarities, including the A15 Bionic processor and the design. It can be found cheaper on Amazon than on the Apple website.
iPhone 13 Pro Max (256GB)
Price: from BRL 8,673.65 to BRL 7,829 (10% discount)
The 13 Pro Max model is the top of the line of the generation that precedes the iPhone 14. The settings are basically the same as the iPhone 13, but its camera stands out because of the longer zoom range. The screen is slightly larger — 6.7 inches versus 6.1 — and its battery also lasts longer — up to 28 hours of video playback, according to the manufacturer.
iPhone 13 mini (128GB)
Price: from BRL 6374 to BRL 5,109 (BRL 20 discount)
The model has great cameras and good battery life. It retains the same iPhone 13 experience, including the powerful A15 Bionic processor and high-quality (albeit smaller) display. Overall, it has several similarities with the recently released iPhone 14.

Tim Cook's attitude towards iPhone users wanting a fix for texting is condescending: It's time for Apple to talk to Android
When asked to fix iPhone's issues texting Android, Tim Cook brushed it off with a flippant comment.
The Apple CEO is ignoring years of user complaints instead of supporting the RCS standard.
The company's refusal to fix this is a burden on iOS users, not Android users.
I was taken aback when Tim Cook recently told a reporter who's also an iPhone user that Apple won't fix texting issues with Android because users aren't asking for that — and if the person wanted to send high-quality videos to his mother, "buy your mom an iPhone."
I found the CEO's response surprisingly flippant. I believe it was also wrong.
For years, customers have been complaining about iPhone/Android texting problems on Apple's community site — the place where customers ask Apple to fix things. There are over 600 posts about it.
As a former Gartner and Jupiter analyst who has covered Apple for decades (and spent several years at Apple as a senior marketing executive) Cook's tone, however humorous it might have been intended, wasn't funny for users who want their devices to "just work." That includes the ability to message seamlessly to friends, family or colleagues who use Android phones.
Apple has made billions from Windows customers in the past
Back during the iPod's heyday, senior Apple executives pushed for iTunes on Windows with full iPod support, despite Steve Jobs reluctance. With this, Apple could sell iPods to, and make money from, Windows customers, they argued, far more money than by keeping iPod as an expensive Mac-only accessory.
It took these executives effort to get Jobs to relent (with Jobs' warning that if it failed they would be blamed) but it turned out to be one of the best decisions Apple ever made. iPod and iTunes became multi-billion businesses, a major source of Apple revenue for years, and the blueprint for Apple's current lucrative services business.
It's ironic, therefore, that some of the same executives have advocated not to allow messaging interoperability with Android.
Craig Federighi, Apple's SVP of Software Engineering and the executive in charge of iOS, feared "iMessage on Android would simply serve to remove [an] obstacle to iPhone families giving their kids Android phones."
In emails from 2016 made public by court filings, a former Apple employee wrote "iMessage amounts to serious lock-in" to the Apple ecosystem. Phil Schiller, formerly SVP of Worldwide Apple Marketing, and now an Apple Fellow, replied by writing "moving iMessage to Android will hurt us more than help us."
Apple should solve the iMessage issue using RCH
Yet, if Apple created an iMessage app for Android, the company could solve a user problem on both platforms. But it doesn't even have to build an Android app. It could simply use the widely adopted standard called Rich Communication Services.
RCS isn't better than iMessage. It's also not worse. It is, however, a tech created by Google, Apple's largest competitor in mobile.
If Apple just added RCS support to iOS it would let Apple keep all the cool iOS features for itself but would allow iOS users to send messages containing attachments such as videos and graphics messages to Android users with full fidelity.
Of course, Apple loves interoperability when there's profit at stake, especially stable and predictable services revenue. (Wall Street loves stable and predictable revenues.) Apple TV+ lives on other platforms, even on Samsung TVs and monitors. Apple Music lives nicely in the Google Play app store. And there likely isn't a multi-billion business lurking behind messaging interoperability.
But the company's refusal to fix this is a burden on iOS users, not Android users. If iMessage is truly a major reason that iPhone users stick around, then Apple is on a slippery slope. The more these interoperability issues plague Apple users, the more users will find ways around iMessage. It's already happening outside of the US, where more users embrace services such as WhatsApp or Signal.
Once users are trusting their communications to someone else's app that "lock-in" vanishes.
Look, I'm not saying the iPhone or Apple is doomed — this is the Apple of 2022, not 2002. Apple will certainly sell a gazillion "amazing, best ever" iPhones 14 this year (in a stunning shade of purple so iPhone buyers can make a visible statement their iPhones are this year's model, not some old iPhone 13 or worse, a 12).
It's actually in Apple's self-interest to help all smartphone users
But despite Apple's wishes, Android — the competition Apple refuses to even acknowledge by name in public — isn't going away. With a far larger share than iOS, worldwide Android is the standard platform, not iOS
Still, Apple's DNA, more than ever, is profitability by maintaining total control of their platforms. Against conventional marketing wisdom, Apple doesn't give away razors to sell blades: it sells the razors, blades, shave cream, and Dopp bag. It wants control of the whole ecosystem.
Any kind of Android migration would cost Apple not just iPhone sales, but all the ancillary paid services, and companion devices such as Apple Watch and other after-market products.
Apple acts as if it can protect this ecosystem by pretending other options for users don't exist or are significantly worse than iOS or iPad OS. That's just not the perception around the globe, away from Jobs' famed "reality distortion" field generated at Apple Park.
The undistorted reality is, despite Tim Cook's comments, Apple users do want interoperability. Supporting it will keep users loyal to iOS, not frustrated by it.
The bottom line is it's in Apple's self-interest to open the ecosystem a little bit, not because it's profitable, but because it's the right thing to do for all smartphone users. Apple should act sooner rather than later before the walled garden they created becomes another Maginot line.

As the saying goes, there are many possible reasons for an insider to sell a stock, but only one reason to buy -- they expect to make money. So let's look at two noteworthy recent insider buys.
On Wednesday, Rocket Companies's Chief Executive Officer, Jay Farner, made a $598,187 buy of RKT, purchasing 77,700 shares at a cost of $7.70 a piece. Investors can buy RKT even cheaper than Farner did, with shares changing hands as low as $7.19 in trading on Friday -- that's 6.6% under Farner's purchase price. Rocket Companies is trading off about 1.7% on the day Friday. Before this latest buy, Farner purchased RKT at 48 other times during the past year, for a total investment of $22.1M at an average of $8.74 per share.
And at Coherent, there was insider buying on Tuesday, by Director Joseph J. Corasanti who bought 10,000 shares at a cost of $43.84 each, for a total investment of $438,440. This purchase marks the first one filed by Corasanti in the past year. Coherent is trading down about 2.3% on the day Friday. Investors have the opportunity to buy COHR at a price even lower than Corasanti did, with the stock changing hands as low as $40.91 at last check today which is 6.7% under Corasanti's purchase price.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Supreme Court will arguments on whether to permanently allow cameras in the courtroom, following trials by ex-police officers Derek Chauvin and Kim Potter that were watched by millions of people around the world.
An advisory committee made up of Minnesota judges, attorneys and court personnel is recommending the court continue its routine of keeping out cameras. Minnesota media outlets and advocacy groups say it’s time the state embrace the technology like neighboring Iowa, Wisconsin and North Dakota.
Minnesota’s top court is scheduled to hear arguments on the issue Tuesday.
Presiding Hennepin County District Court judges were initially opposed to cameras in the courtroom for the notorious trials of Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd, and Potter for the killing of Daunte Wright. Both judges, Peter Cahill and Regina Chu, changed their minds in part because of immense public interest and COVID-19 limitations.
Media and government organizations, along with Cahill, sent letters to the Supreme Court in support of expanded camera access. Victims’ rights groups, public defenders, defense attorneys and prosecutors are opposed, the Star Tribune reported.
“The fact of the matter is that these are incredibly emotional times, difficult times for all the parties that are involved,” said Minnesota State Public Defender Bill Ward. “Justice should not be a spectator sport and should not be something that’s sensationalized in the news media.”
Mankato Free Press Managing Editor Joe Spear wrote to the court that the presence of a camera doesn’t change the truth.
“It only shines more light on it,” he said.

It looks like there is another name we can add to the list of this year’s tennis retirees – Roger Federer.
The 20-time men’s singles Grand Slam champion announced his retirement on Thursday. The 41-year-old superstar also said the Laver Cup in London, which is taking place next week, will be his final ATP competition.
Even though the Swiss megastar has 20 titles to his name, he trails behind two other tennis contemporaries in men’s singles – Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic.
Actually, the trio is often referred to as the Big Three – referencing the three greatest male tennis players in history. They have combined for a staggering 62 of the last 75 Grand Slams.
In the last 1,248 weeks (24 years), one of the Big Three was ranked No. 1 for 892 weeks, which is over 70% of the time.
Let’s take a look at how the legendary Federer compares to his counterparts Nadal and Djokovic, now that his career is concluding:
Who is Roger Federer?
Sports
Federer is a 41-year-old professional tennis player from Switzerland.
He held the world No. 1 ranking for 310 weeks, according to the Association of Tennis Professionals. This included a consecutive 237 weeks on top, a record that still stands.
Federer finished as the year-end No. 1 on five occasions.
His career lasted 24 years.
Who is Rafael Nadal?
Spain’s top dog and most beloved tennis star to date, Rafael Nadal, is a 36-year-old professional tennis player.
He holds a current ranking of No. 3 in singles by the ATP, after losing to Fraces Tiafoe during the Round of 16 at the 2022 U.S. Open.
Nadal was previously ranked world No. 1 for 209 weeks and finished as the year-end No. 1 five times, similar to Federer.
His tennis career has lasted 21 years so far.
Who is Novak Djokovic?
Novak Djokovic is a 35-year-old professional tennis player from Serbia.
He currently holds a ranking of No. 7 in singles by the ATP. He owns records for most total weeks spent as world No. 1 -- 373 weeks -- and the amount of times he finished as year-end No. 1 -- seven.
Djokovic couldn’t participate in the 2022 U.S. Open due to COVID-19 vaccination restrictions. Under the CDC regulations in August, Djokovic, who remains unvaccinated, was not permitted to travel to the U.S., therefore losing his opportunity to compete in the Grand Slam event.
His tennis career has been in motion for 19 years.
How many career titles have Federer, Nadal and Djokovic won?
Federer has 103 career titles to his name.
Nadal has 92 titles, while Djokovic has 88 titles.
What are the career singles records of Federer, Nadal and Djokovic?
Swiss prodigy Federer has a 82% career singles record of 1251-275.
However, Spain’s Nadal and Serbia’s Djokovic beat him by a slight one percent. Nadal has an 83% career singles record of 1066-214, while Djokovic has an 83% career singles record of 1012-204.
What are the Grand Slam records of Federer, Nadal and Djokovic?
Federer has a Grand Slam record of 86%, with a record of 369-60.
Nadal and Djokovic surpass him with an 88% Grand Slam record. Nadal’s record is 313-42 and Djokovic’s record is 334-47.
How many Grand Slam titles have Federer, Nadal and Djokovic won?
Nadal has a total of 22 Grand Slam titles under his belt, while Djokovic has 21 and Federer has 20. Nadal takes the cake on this one.
What are Federer, Nadal and Djokovic’s earnings throughout their careers?
When it comes to money, all of these athletes definitely scored pretty high. But if we are being technical, Djokovic wins in that department.
Djokovic has earned $159 million throughout his career. Nadal has earned $131.3 million and Federer has earned $130.5 million.
But if we’re considering endorsements, Federer has made roughly $1 billion throughout his career.
“Federer’s career earnings total of $1.1 billion before taxes and agents’ fees is more than twice Nadal’s $500 million and Djokovic’s $470 million,” said Forbes, according to their estimates.
How have the three athletes fared against each other?
Nadal and Djokovic
Nadal and Djokovic have played each other 59 times total.
These two superstars have faced one another more times than any other rivalry in history, which includes 18 Grand Slam matches (three at Wimbledon, three at the U.S. Open, twice at the Australian Open and 10 times at the French Open).
Djokovic is ahead in the head-to-head record with 30 wins, while Nadal has 29. However, Nadal has an 11-7 lead in Grand Slam matches against Djokovic.
Nadal and Federer:
The two have battled each other 40 times, with Nadal leading 24-16 overall. The Spaniard also leads the series 14-10 in the finals. However, Federer has proven strong in recent years, winning seven of their last eight meetings since 2015.
Nadal is undefeated against Federer at the French Open, winning all six meetings, and holds a 3-1 advantage over Federer at the Australian Open. Meanwhile, Federer leads 3-1 at Wimbledon. The two have never battled in the U.S. Open.
Djokovic and Federer:
Djokovic and Federer have been pinned up against each other 50 times in total. Djokovic takes a 27-23 lead in the head-to-head record, including a 13-6 finish in the finals.
The two rivals have played 17 Major matches and Djokovic also leads with 11-6 wins. He is the only player to have beaten Federer at all four Majors, and vice versa – Federer is the only one who has beaten Djokovic at all four.
In total, Nadal’s 53-46 record boasts a 53.5 percent winning record against the two competitors, the best of the field. He’s followed closely by Djokovic’s 52.3 percent winning record, based on 57 wins and 52 losses. Finally, Federer has a 39-51 record, good for victory 43.3 percent of the time.

Tokyo, Sept. 16 (Jiji Press)--The Japanese government is considering building shelters on remote islands in the southernmost prefecture of Okinawa to evacuate residents in emergency situations including a conflict in Taiwan, government sources said Friday.
Remote islands, including Okinawa's Sakishima Islands, lacks facilities for evacuating residents. The Sakishima chain includes the island of Ishigaki.
The Cabinet Secretariat asked for 70 million yen in budget outlays for fiscal 2023, which starts in April next year, for research costs related to shelters that can protect people from armed attacks.
It will also conduct a comparative study of shelters installed above the ground and underground ones. Based on the results, the government will decide when and where to build shelters, the sources said.
The civil protection law calls on prefectural governments and others to designate evacuation facilities that can be used in times of emergency.

UIS fundraising campaign surpasses goal
The University of Illinois Springfield has announced that it surpassed its target for the Reaching Stellar fundraising campaign. The effort raised $42,486,248, well above the $40 million goal. The tally was announced during a celebratory event held Thursday on the UIS campus attended by alumni, friends and donors of the University.
The university called it the most significant fundraising campaign in the history of the Sangamon Valley region. It launched in 2014 and concluded on June 30 of this year.
UIS Chancellor Janet Gooch credited her predecessors – Chancellor Emerita Susan Koch and former interim Chancellor Karen Whitney – with the success of the campaign.
“Our University has been fortunate to have these two amazing leaders throughout the Reaching Stellar campaign,” said Gooch, who started as UIS Chancellor in July. “Despite a two-year state budget impasse and a global pandemic, Susan and Karen worked tirelessly to ensure this campaign would be successful. The campaign raised millions more for Scholarships so students can further their education and saw the opening of the Student Union in 2018, the first building constructed on campus with significant support from donors and student fees. We owe them so much for their dedication to UIS.”
The campaign had five priority areas – Scholarships, Academic Excellence, the UIS Center for Lincoln Studies, “The Public Good” and Facilities & Technology. More than $8 million has been committed to more than 70 new Scholarship funds that have already assisted close to 300 additional students to date, the university announced.
According to UIS, The Center for Lincoln Studies debuted in February 2021 and is already a national base for scholarship, teaching and public history about Abraham Lincoln’s life, leadership and legacy. And the $13.5 million in gifts given to “The Public Good” – which includes areas like the Illinois Innocence Project, NPR Illinois and the UIS Performing Arts Center.
“Our donors know when they invest in UIS, they will receive an excellent return through the lives they change,” said Saul Morse, of Counsel at Brown, Hay & Stephens LLC, and director, University of Illinois Foundation Board. Morse co-chaired the Reaching Stellar campaign committee with Hy Bunn, president and CEO of the Bunn-O-Matic Corporation. Morse added: “I can’t thank our many alumni, donors and friends enough for their belief in our students and employees.”
“Reaching Stellar celebrated the Excellence UIS has achieved over many years but also positioned it for a brighter future,” said Jim Moore, President/CEO of the University of Illinois Foundation. “This campaign illustrated the importance of philanthropy and the impact of our donor community. Millions of dollars were given by thousands of donors. However, our donors contributed more than financial resources. With every gift they made, they also invested their pride and passion into UIS and in support of our students and faculty.”
The campaign received 125,498 gifts from 17,923 donors.
“Reaching Stellar had an ambitious goal not only in terms of dollars it sought to raise, but also in the impact achieving that goal would have on the University,” said Jeff Lorber, UIS vice chancellor for advancement and senior vice president for the University of Illinois Foundation. “UIS is Stronger thanks to the investment of donors, who see the potential the University has to change lives of students and improve the communities they call home, for the better.”

The Morning Report
Subscribe now. Get smarter tomorrow.
For the last several weeks, Bill Walton, the basketball legend, Grateful Dead fan and avid bicyclist – perhaps San Diego’s most famous resident – has been sending Mayor Todd Gloria emails about the homeless crisis in San Diego.
He’s extremely frustrated.
“you have failed, us and yourself,” he wrote in one, Sept. 2, in a lower-case spoken-word style. He complained of bad personal encounters he had.
“once again, while peacefully riding my bike early this Sunday morning in Balboa Park, I was threatened, chased, and assaulted by the homeless population, in our Park,” he wrote Aug. 28.
“once again, you’ve done, and continue to do, nothing.”
But the emails are not a big deal because they reveal anything we don’t already know. They’re not a big deal because Walton is famous.
They are a big deal because Walton may be the biggest San Diego booster around. Walton’s career is as a broadcaster and promotor. But his role here, as a citizen, is as the captain of the hype squad for San Diego.
If there’s a cause in San Diego that needs a boost, Walton is almost always ready to help with a testimonial, cut a ribbon or hand out an oversized check. (He’s a current donor to Voice of San Diego and has recorded promotional videos for our fundraising campaigns – though he declined to comment on his correspondence with the mayor.)
His politics are generally in line with Gloria’s. When former Mayor Bob Filner resigned, there were rumors Walton would consider running for mayor. Since then, he’s been a convener of support for the political network that helped Gloria become mayor. Just recently, Walton held a fundraiser for Councilwoman Jen Campbell. He asked her to address homelessness above all to his gathered friends and neighbors.
All this shows Walton is not a gadfly or a persistent critic of Gloria’s. In fact, I could not think of, or find, anything negative Walton has ever said about San Diego or a cause someone was pursuing here or a political leader in town.
Until now. The mayor has lost him.
“you speak of the rights of the homes, what about our rights, we follow the rules of a functioning society, why are others allowed to disregard those rules,” Walton wrote, Aug. 24. “your lack of action is unacceptable, as is the conduct of the homeless population.”
Walton does not outline what exactly he wants the mayor to do. He mentions a law in Los Angeles recently passed that prohibits encampments near schools. He mentions enforcement he would like to see.
The mayor’s staff sent over a long response meant to convey they got it – “Bill’s frustration over our homelessness crisis is shared by people across our city, including the mayor himself, and in cities across the United States,” wrote Rachel Laing, the director of communications for the mayor.
But, as ever, it’s a very complicated issue and the pandemic made it worse, she said.
“As Voice of San Diego has covered, people living on the streets since the pandemic seem to be in worse straits than ever, with more behavioral health and substance abuse issues than we’ve seen prior to the pandemic. In our efforts to address the neighborhood impacts of homelessness – particularly encampments and the trash and unsanitary conditions that result from them – our crews are finding an increase in hording behaviors and anti-social behavior such as vandalism and unwillingness to put trash in available nearby receptacles,” she wrote. (You can read her full statement here.)
She wrote, though, the city doesn’t have the right to clear all encampments but they’re doing all they legally are allowed to do not only to clean up encampments but to expand shelter and services.
Gloria’s predecessor, Kevin Faulconer, watched homelessness explode into a public health crisis and then acted furiously to contain it but he never suffered significant political consequences. Walton’s emails are an indication that Gloria may be more personally identified with the problem right when anecdotal experience and data show the homeless crisis is worse than ever.
The San Diego Downtown Partnership recently reported that its monthly count of homeless residents had reached an all-time high. Advocates for the homeless told the Union-Tribune they had never seen it this bad.
The politicians know this is first, second and third on the list of issues that worry San Diego voters right now. And Gloria’s embrace of more enforcement and temporary shelters indicate he and his staff have heard the concern. Even the progressive Council President Sean Elo-Rivera, who came into our studio to record a special podcast on the topic, and who often talks about his own unsheltered stint, is supportive of more enforcement, especially focused, though, on people preying on the homeless selling drugs or trafficking them.
He said encampments and the conditions they create can’t be tolerated.
“The laws need to be adhered to. But I want to make sure that we are doing that work in such a way that will actually, again, reduce homelessness – that we’re not just moving folks around – that there’s a plan in place for ensuring that the actions that we take are aligned with best practices to actually reduce the number of people who are experiencing homelessness in our city,” Elo-Rivera told me.
But he’s steadfast that the principal cause of homelessness is the extraordinary, and rising, cost of living in San Diego and just the sight of homelessness is not something from which the city must protect residents.
“I would say our discomfort with someone’s homelessness is something that we kind of need to just wrestle with,” he said. Elo-Rivera said the city is about to deploy a team of experts to attend to the most disruptive people living on the streets to free up other service workers who can help more people find housing. Gloria recently flew to Sacramento to stand with Gov. Gavin Newsom as he signed into law a bill that would create CARE Courts, allowing first responders and family members to force people into treatment. Civil rights organizations are highly critical of the move.
“Today marks the day that local governments, like the City and County of San Diego, stand united with the State to say we will no longer turn a blind eye to Californians suffering from severe mental illness. Rather, we will step up and guarantee services to those who need them,” Gloria said in a written statement about the move.
It all probably won’t be enough to assuage Walton.
“you have given our bike paths and Balboa Park in our neighborhood to homeless encampments, and we can no longer use them, and they’re ours, this is unacceptable,” Walton wrote to Gloria.

From organizational strategy to shopping habits, ESG is re-shaping what success looks like
ESG is the hottest topic of conversation in today's boardrooms. To uncover the true impact of ESG, we spoke to business leaders to inquire about their company's ESG efforts and how they're shaping strategies across their organization. Concurrently, we contacted consumers across the USA to discuss the role ESG plays in their purchase decision-making. After speaking to 1,100 participants as part of this research effort, we have reached an incontrovertible conclusion: ESG has transcended trend status.
TORONTO, Sept. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Today, 80% of US companies are taking efforts to minimize their environmental impact and/or to promote equity in the workplace. Furthermore, 41% report that HR departments are helping lead their ESG revolution. Corporate leadership continues to rely on HR to initiate unprecedented organizational change by tackling diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). The conclusion is clear; HR will continue to play a vital role driving company success even as the pandemic recedes. But can they continue to be successful? Only if they take the right approach. More than 90% of Millennials and GenZ, agree that a company's ESG position significantly influences where they choose to work now and will also continue to influence this decision in the future. With many US companies facing a skilled labor shortage, HR's prioritization of not just ESG policies, but the right ESG policies, will provide a much-needed strategic advantage as companies compete to hire the best and brightest new talent.
While US shoppers still care about traditional influencers such as price and availability, they are paying closer attention to ESG, with 80% declaring it a purchase consideration now, and it is expected to continue to be an influence 5 years from now. What remains to be seen is whether ESG will become a determinant equal to price in shoppers' decision-making process. It appears that the level of future long-term success that a company achieves will be influenced by which of their ESG efforts they choose to promote. This decision shouldn't be made lightly. Companies like Nike have chosen to promote diversity and equity, while Apple has targeted waste reduction. Are these the right decisions? Time will tell. What is highly likely is that ten years from now, many in the C-suite will look back at their ESG-related decisions as some of their most important of the last decade. That is why the strategy behind embracing ESG needs to be carefully considered. Before making a decision, an organization needs to be fully informed so that it can consider all possible options and potential impacts before choosing wisely.
Is your company struggling to understand how ESG can improve your company's success in an ever-competitive marketplace? ONRCX can help. Visit our website www.ONRCX.com to download our latest ESG infographic and review our blog posts. This information will help your organization understand what ESG is and how it can be used to elevate your company's success. For more information contact our president Jason Ten-Pow via LinkedIn.

Mathew Corcoran, Geraldines, under pressure from three St Brides defenders. (Pic: Arthur Kinahan)
If there was jockeying for position in Louth championship football over the past number of weeks, the whips will surely be out from now on. The three main competitions are down to the last eight, and what that means, of course, is that from now on it’s win you’re in, lose you’re out.
The draw for the quarter-finals was made after St Joseph’s had picked up the last remaining berth in senior on the weekend before last, and as always there was a big public interest in proceedings, staged in the Clan na Gael complex.
Games take place this weekend, and as is now the norm when championship football is at the knock-out stage, decisions will have to be reached on the day. In other words, no replays.
In another change from other years, club football is getting a free run. County fare is done and dusted for the year much earlier than usual, and though here in this county there are mostly single-game fixtures, attendances would suggest a healthy spectator interest.
With no activity in Croke Park and the other big venues, club fare would appear to be benefitting. And the experiment of playing games on a Monday night is working.
On the question of fixtures, it’s been noticeable the absence of matches at three prominent venues. McGeough Park, Haggardstown, and Dunleer’s Pairc Ui Mhuiri, each of which has staged the county senior final, hasn’t figured on the championship rota for the quarter finals, and neither has Hunterstown’s Pairc Baile Fiach.
Word is that the venues’ three clubs, Geraldines, Lannleire and Hunterstown Rovers, have not made their grounds available in protest over recent Co Board decisions.
O’Rahilly’s failure to make the knock-out stages of the intermediate has caused most surprise. Yes, St Mochta’s could have been expected to emerge in senior having played in last year’s final, but their group was easily the most competitive of the four, and it was only on score difference that the Villagers failed to make it.
O’Rahilly’s, however, had looked good to advance. They had fared best in a 16-match league campaign, finishing with a surge to pip Dundalk Gaels; but by coming a cropper in each of the group matches, going down to St Kevin’s and Clan na Gael, they exited the championship, and as a consequence killed off any chance of Inside Track bringing up the treble.
But should St Mary’s and Lannleire score in the other title tests, we’ll be tuning up for Meat Loaf’s Two Outta Three Ain’t Bad (Not that it really is.)
Senior’s big three, Naomh Mairtin, Mary’s and Newtown Blues, feature in the quarter-final draw as was widely anticipated. Mary’s sauntered through their preliminaries, Mairtin’s had to clear a few sticky obstacles, but for a while in their final group outing the Blues took an uncomfortable look at elimination.
The champions of three years ago trailed St Patrick’s by five points at one stage in the final group game, but by reducing the margin to two at the finish, they did enough to go through on score difference.
Mochta’s, the other team in the group, were well represented at The Grove for this tie and their allegiance must have swayed from one side to the other over the 60 minutes.
They’d have been on Pat’s side when the Lordship men were in front, urging them to go even further clear. But it would have been different when the Blues closed to a point. At that stage, Mochs would have been rooting for the Drogheda side, hoping they could close out the deal which would have put them through. It didn’t happen for them.
Mary’s had it easy, beating Dundalk Gaels and St Joseph’s by huge margins; but champions Naomh Mairtin could never relax in either of their games, getting a good testing from St Fechin’s and Dreadnots. Geraldines caused a mild surprise by emerging with full points from their meetings with St Bride’s (the other qualifiers) and Mattock Rangers.
Dundalk has a strong representation in the chase for intermediate honours. Clan na Gael, Sean O’Mahony’s and Young Irelands have all made it through, and are joined by two other north county sides, Roche Emmets and Cooley Kickhams.
The latter are now taking their instructions from Colm Nally and apparently benefitting from the former Louth goalie’s huge experience. Also in the mix are Glen Emmets, St Kevin’s and Hunterstown Rovers.
Pick an outright winner from that lot and you know your stuff. The four quarter-finals are on Saturday, two of them with a 5 o’clock throw-in, the other pair going off at 7.30.
For the zealots among supporters it will be possible to see all four of the senior quarter-finals this Sunday. And there won’t be that much travelling to do, either. It might, however, be no harm to fill the flask and stock up with plenty of ‘doorsteps’.
Mary’s are out against Bride’s in Clan na Gael Park at 1 o’clock, and a couple of hours later, Blues and Joe’s go head-to-head at Darver. It’s then on to The Grove for Mairtin’s 5 o’clock tasty meeting with St Pat’s. The four-match programme ends with Geraldines facing St Fechin’s in Stabannon at 7.
Through to the last eight in junior are (paired as they are listed), Lannleire, Glyde Rangers, Wolfe Tones, Westerns, Naomh Fionnbarra, Naomh Malachi, John Mitchel’s and Stabannon Parnells.
As with the intermediate, you’re a better man than me, Gunga Din if you can come up with the champions from that lot. IT is sticking with Lannleire.
Some players who’ve impressed: Daire McConnon (St Mary’s), Conall McCaul (St Joseph’s), Ryan Burns (Hunterstown Rovers), Shane O’Hanlon (Geraldines) and Eoghan Lafferty (St Patrick’s).
Sam Mulroy has shown he hasn’t lost the scoring touch, Dessie Finnegan is wearing his years well in the Pat’s colours, while his colleague, Joe Connor, is a joy to watch when he’s on a run. And he can finish as well. Conor Grimes carries Glen Emmets’ main threat.
Mickey Harte has been doing the rounds, and it will be interesting to see who he’ll be calling on for winter duty in preparation for next season’s Division Two league campaign.
Forecasts: Newtown Blues, St Fechin’s, Naomh Mairtin and St Mary’s to advance in senior, and St Kevin’s Hunterstown Rovers, Glen Emmets and Cooley Kickhams to make the intermediate semis. In junior, Lannleire, Wolfe Tones, Naomh Fionnbarra and Stabannon Parnells.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles police on Thursday arrested two teenage boys in connection with the death of a 15-year-old girl who overdosed in a restroom at her high school after buying pills possibly laced with fentanyl on campus, authorities said.
Police served a search warrant around 8:30 a.m. as part of an investigation into the overdose death of a girl a day earlier at Bernstein High School in Hollywood, police Chief Michel Moore said.
A 15-year-old boy who lives with his grandmother was taken into custody on suspicion of manslaughter, Moore said. Investigators believe he sold pills touted as Percocet to two 15-year-old friends around 12:30 p.m. Tuesday who later crushed and snorted the narcotics in the restroom at their school.
The Los Angeles County Coroner identified the student who died as Melanie Ramos, 15. Her unidentified friend who also overdosed remained hospitalized and was expected to recover.
Moore said police also arrested a 16-year-old boy on suspicion of selling fentanyl-laced pills to two other high school students who suffered overdoses after buying the drugs at nearby Lexington Park. He could face narcotics-related charges, the chief said.
Police will work with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency to find the distributors who provided the 15- and 16-year-old boys with the pills, Moore said.
“There is a drug organization behind this,” he said.
The teen suspects knew each other, and both attend Apex Academy, an independent charter school that shares a campus with Bernstein.
Dealers lacing common painkillers with fentanyl is an increasingly common practice, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said at a news conference.
“These are not overdoses. These are people who have been poisoned,” Garcetti said. “One pill can kill.”
Officers were called to Bernstein High Tuesday night after a man said his 15-year-old stepdaughter had overdosed on campus, police said.
The girl and her friend had not come home from school in the afternoon and the man began driving around town looking for the pair. He found his stepdaughter around 8 p.m. in a school courtyard, said police Lt. John Radke.
She had suffered an overdose but managed to tell her stepfather that her friend was in a girls’ restroom on campus, Radke said Wednesday.
The man and a school employee found the other girl unresponsive in the restroom at the school where students and parents had gathered for evening athletic events. The man administered aid until paramedics arrived and pronounced her dead, police said. His stepdaughter was hospitalized.
Earlier in the day, the Los Angeles Fire Department responded to separate calls reporting possible overdoses of two teens in the area of Lexington Park, a few blocks from Bernstein High and a cluster of other schools, according to police.
“It is believed that the overdose victims are students of Bernstein and local high schools,” a police statement said.
One of the victims was a 17-year-old student at nearby Hollywood High School, said Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho.
Including the latest victims, there have been a total of six cases of drug-related incidents including overdoses stemming from illicit narcotics purchased in recent at Lexington Park in a residential area of East Hollywood near the U.S. 101 freeway, Carvalho said.
“It is a park well known for allowing individuals to sell drugs to provide drugs to some of our students,” the superintendent told reporters Wednesday.
Los Angeles City Councilmember Mitch O’Farrell, who represents the area, ordered the park closed Wednesday, Carvalho said.
Grief and crisis counselors were on hand at Bernstein High, LA Unified said in a statement.
Law enforcement officials nationwide have for months warned about the dangers of fentanyl, a synthetic opioid 80 to 100 times more powerful than morphine. It’s frequently mixed into illicit pills made to look like prescription painkillers or other medicines.

Kartik Aaryan shares glimpses of his shoot diaries in latest VIDEO; Check out
Kartik Aaryan is currently filming for 'SatyaPrem Ki Katha.'
Kartik Aaryan is one of the most promising actors in the tinsel town of Bollywood. He made his debut with the 2011 film Pyaar Ka Punchnama and since then, there is no looking back for the actor. With his dapper looks, impeccable dance moves and brilliant acting skills, Kartik has won millions of hearts across the globe. On screen, he captivates audiences with his signature monologues and off-screen enjoys a huge fan base with his great sense of humour. Witty side of his personality is evident in his quirky captions and posts on Instagram.
Meanwhile, the Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 actor on Monday took to his Instagram stories and shared a boomerang video of him in which he is seen facing off the camera. Along with the video, he wrote, “Shoot diaries.”
Recently, Kartik attended an event at CNN-News18 and talked about his journey in the industry. He said: "It's not been easy. It's been quite a difficult journey and it's taken some time. Thankfully I started when I was 20, almost like a child artist, but it's been a journey with ups and downs and I've seen hits and flops. For the longest time, a lot of people didn't know my name. It's been a journey. When I look back, I feel that I would never change anything about it and I have been lucky, unlucky, with ups, and downs. I have seen everything. I'm enjoying the success of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and Dhamaka right now and I'm really in a good place thankfully."
Meanwhile, on the work front, the Dhamaka actor will star in Anurag Basu's Aashiqui 3. He also has Shehzada which is an official Hindi remake of the Allu Arjun starrer South film Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo and will also feature Kriti Sanon in the lead.
Apart from this, Kartik also has Shashanka Ghosh’s Freddy with Alaya F, Captain India with Hansal Mehta, Sameer Vidwans' SatyaPrem Ki Katha with Kiara Advani, and an action movie with director Kabir Khan, which is also being produced by Nadiadwala and Grandsons.

"A time of great peril."
That's how the head of the United Nations, Secretary-General António Guterres, sums up the state of things.
In a press conference this week, as the annual U.N. General Assembly began in New York City, Guterres pointed to wars, poverty, hunger, and what he described as "climate chaos."
He called for solidarity and cooperation, even while acknowledging that the global response to all these challenges seems "paralyzed."
Guterres joined All Things Considered to discuss five things going on in the world right now that he is worried about: fighting near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power; fertilizer availability; Europe's energy crisis; Russia's invasion of Ukraine; and the climate crisis.
This interview has been lightly edited for length and clarity.
Interview highlights
On rising concerns about fighting near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine
It was my belief since the beginning that the parties should agree there should be no shooting from the plant, or into the plant. We have suggested the creation of a perimeter in which Russian troops would not enter, but also in relation to which the Ukrainian troops would commit not to enter. I don't think that we are approaching a solution of this type. I know the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) is exploring as much as possible the concept of a safe zone, and the negotiations are taking place between the IAEA and the parties.
But I'm not very optimistic. In any case, the six reactors now are not working. The question is that they need to have the supply of electricity to guarantee the cooling together with other parts in all contexts. So I hope that this kind of stalemate will not bring any catastrophic situation. But of course, there is a major concern with what's happening there.
On U.N. efforts to export grain to countries impacted by supply chain issues
We have already [transported] more than 3 million tons that went out from the Black Sea from Ukraine. And it's going on and on. And I think that the movement is taking place in a very positive way.
Our biggest problem in relation to food security now is not food in itself, but fertilizers. The fertilizers from Belarus are sanctioned, and being a landlocked country, they cannot export their fertilizers through the European Union. It is absolutely essential to remove the obstacles that still exist. And we are cooperating with the U.S. government, and also with the European Union to make sure that what has always been said, that no sanctions apply to food and fertilizers, is translated into practice.
And this is having a dramatic impact in West Africa, for instance. We have concrete data that farmers are already planning to farm less than the land available because of the fertilizer price and its availability.
On whether Russia can be held accountable for manufacturing an energy crisis in Europe
This is an area where we have no capacity. Let's be frank, energy is something that is dealt with by a number of very powerful countries and a number of very powerful companies. And the influence of the United Nations there is much more reduced. With the grain, we were able to get to the agreements. We got a lot of commitment with a lot of persistence. It took four months, but it was possible because there were no major interests against it. When you talk about energy, there are many major interests and it's very difficult for us to be able to create the conditions for the energy market to normalize. I'm very worried about that.
On any hopes of making progress between Russia and Ukraine during the general assembly
I do not hope to make progress here in New York. I don't think there will be any chance to have any kind of dialogue between the Russians and the Ukrainians, the Russians and the Americans, the Russians or Europeans. But we are working hard in order to, first of all, put together a fact finding mission that will go to the place where so many prisoners of war would be.
In relation to the key question, which is peace, I think we are still very far from creating the conditions to get it. And for us, peace must be in line with the U.N. Charter and in line with international law.
On a lack of action on the climate crisis
I think we have problems in mitigation, which means reduction of emission, and we are probably in a position which means we need to focus on building resilience and supporting communities that can be impacted. And we have problems in finance in the reduction of emissions.
Developed countries have been able to announce a meaningful reduction in the next few years, but most emerging economies do not have that capacity, which means that we risk having an increase in emissions during this decade instead of the reduction of 45%, which is what's needed.
There are arguments from both sides against each other and what we need is effective cooperation for the developed country to support the emerging economies, for them to accelerate their financing, to move from coal and other fossil fuels into renewables. And for that they need financing and they need technology.
So for all of these things to be prevented or to be minimized in their impact, they need a massive investment in adaptation. And there has been no money for that. It's essential that there is money for that. Military expenditure is increasing everywhere. There must be money to rescue the planet.

The Nissan Titan and Nissan Frontier pickup trucks equipped with a 9-speed automatic transmission are being recalled because the trucks can slip out of “Park” and roll away, the NHTSA disclosed this week. This is an expansion of a previous recall.
An issue with the transmission can prevent the parking pawl from being engaged, so when a driver shifts the truck into Park it may not actually be in Park. If the driver doesn’t engage the emergency parking brake, the truck could roll away without warning.
The issue affects more than 203,000 newer Nissan trucks. The bulk of the recall encompasses more than 92,000 units of the redesigned Nissan Frontier mid-size pickup truck from the 2022-2023 model years. Yet its predecessor from the 2020-2021 model years is also included because Nissan put the new engine in its old truck. Nearly 59,000 Nissan Titan full-size pickup trucks have been recalled from the 2020-2023 model year.
Most of the affected trucks had been recalled in June, but that recall had been limited to models produced from late 2019 to June 14, 2022. After that fix, Nissan uncovered another issue of the trucks not engaging in Park, and expanded the recall under “an abundance of caution,” Nissan explained in paperwork filed with the NHTSA. During the expanded investigation, Nissan also scrutinized the 2023 Nissan Z sports coupe, but it has not been included in the current, expanded recall.
Other Nissan and Infiniti vehicles equipped with the widespread 9-speed automatic transmission could be affected, with Nissan admitting the ongoing investigation does not have a remedy at the moment. In the meantime, Nissan will advise owners to engage the emergency parking brake until a fix is finalized.
Owners can expect notification by mail as early as Nov. 1. For more info, call Nissan’s customer service at 1-800-867-7669 or visit the brand’s dedicated recall hub.

A Guest List That Rivals The Oscars at the First-Ever Caring for Women Dinner
“I had a vision, and it’s exactly what happened,” Salma Hayek Pinault tells me at the Pool on Park Avenue in New York, where a star-studded room has gathered as part of that dream. She’s now spent 14 years working with the Kering Foundation to support women survivors of violence, and had a hand in everything from flower arrangements to Ginori 1975 tableware for the night’s first-ever Caring for Women dinner. “I wanted it to be chic, classy—as a sign of respect—dressing and having a beautiful meal where we can ponder about the important things in life,” she says of the black tie event hosted by Anderson Cooper that she co-chairs with Gloria Steinem, Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah of Jordan, Julie Mehretu and more.
The hope is to create an intimate evening that motivates people to participate and “to be inspired by the survivors and to understand that this affects everyone,” says Hayek Pinault. Through feminist partnerships in six countries, including grassroots movements like Global Fund for Women (whose representative Sandra Macias del Villar wears a Voz ensemble woven by indigenous women in Chile) and Ms. Foundation for Women, the Kering Foundation has helped survivors escape violence and rebuild their lives. And for its inaugural dinner featuring a plant-based menu curated by Chef Dominique Crenn, the guest list rivals that of the Oscars: Leo DiCaprio, whose take on the dress code includes a black baseball cap, sits with Hayek Pinault and husband François-Henri Pinault, Kering’s CEO and foundation founder, at a spotlit table where Jodie Turner-Smith glides over and surrounding attendees sneak selfies. Emma Watson chats with Lauren and Andrés Santo Domingo across plates of tomato tarts and a few feet from the stage where Andra Day kicks off her silver Gucci platforms (“I just can’t sing really well in heels”) before performing a triple-song set punctuated by a standing ovation.
The many fashion houses under Kering’s umbrella, including Bottega Veneta, Boucheron, and Alexander McQueen, donated one-of-a-kind offerings to the event’s auction, and top earners include a Saint Laurent resin sculpture by Helmut Lang in collaboration with Anthony Vaccarello that sells for $140,000, the same price that Gucci’s nine-day VIP tour of Italy and Balenciaga’s couture fitting bring in, respectively. With Christie’s ambassador Lydia Fenet promising that a duo of custom Brioni suits will transform at least one of their wearers into a Legends of the Fall-era Brad Pitt (snapped up for $45,000 by a guest in a coordinating gown and trucker hat) and reminding everyone that only Lady Gaga and museums have the originals of a size 39 1/2 pair of reproduced McQueen armadillo boots (which sell to the same table for $70,000), over a million dollars are raised in an hour. One hundred percent of the proceeds go directly to the cause, a fact that survivor Kiesha Preston notes after sharing stories of her personal experience with the audience. “I feel like for such a long time, domestic violence wasn’t something that we even talked about,” Preston says. “Being in this room where people are putting their money where their mouth is feels like real change.” Steps away, Watson agrees. “There’s still so much stigma, and it’s still this silent epidemic—the fact that it’s so out in the open in the middle of New York with this group of people means that we really are making progress—we must be making progress.”

Crash that killed Rep. Walorski blamed on failed passing try
ELKHART, Ind. (AP) — A staffer for U.S. Rep. Jackie Walorski was trying to pass a flat-bed truck on a northern Indiana highway last month when the SUV they were in crashed into an oncoming car, killing Walorski and three other people, police said Friday.
A witness traveling behind the SUV told investigators it sped up, crossed the centerline of the two-lane highway as it neared the truck and pulled into the path of the other car when the crash happened about 12:30 p.m. on Aug. 3, according to the Elkhart County Sheriff’s Office.
Airbag control module data from the SUV driven by Zachery Potts, 27, who was Walorski’s district director, showed it was going 77 mph at the time of the crash on a rural stretch of Indiana 19 near the town of Wakarusa, the office said.
“All of the evidence and information gathered is consistent with someone attempting to pass another vehicle on a two-lane roadway,” the office said in a statement.
Walorski, 58, was a Republican who had first been elected to represent northern Indiana’s 2nd Congressional District in 2012 and was seeking reelection this year to a sixth term.
The sheriff’s office released statements from the county coroner ruling the deaths of Walorski and the others as accidental from injuries suffered in the crash. Investigators blamed the crash on Potts for “driving left of center with a contributing factor of excessive speed.”
Also killed in the crash were Emma Thomson, 28, who was Walorski’s communications director, and Edith Schmucker, 56, of Nappanee, Indiana, who was driving the other vehicle.
The sheriff’s office said investigators found no signs of mechanical failures with either vehicle or any evidence of cellphone use by anyone in the vehicles when crash happened.
Republican officials selected Rudy Yakym, an executive with Elkhart distribution company Kem Krest and a longtime political ally of Walorski, to replace her on the November election ballot in the heavily GOP district. The district’s congressional seat will remain vacant until a special election on the November ballot to complete Walorski’s term through rest of this year.
Yakym will face Democrat Paul Steury, a science teacher from Goshen, and Libertarian William Henry.

About one in three children globally suffer from lead poisoning. We need to reduce this? (Our World Data 1.2022)
CHICAGO, Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Institute of Medicine of Chicago (IOMC) is pleased to announce its latest webinar 'Childhood Lead Poisoning in the Chicago Area: The Latest Evidence and Public Health Approaches. This program is part of IOMC's programmatic series Public Health, Population Health, and Community Health – Reducing Health Disparities. The webinar will be held on Fri., Sept. 23, 2022 at 12:00 PM CT-1:00 PM CT. The program is open to all and is free. Registration is required, visit this page .
Urban soils contaminated with lead contribute to elevated blood lead levels (BLLs) in young children. A systematic manner addressing soil contamination is needed here. Overall efforts to reduce lead blood levels in at-risk populations will continue to fall short, and significant health and social consequences of lead poisoning will continue to manifest until there is an effective protocol.
Chicago has hot spots where lead, including in soil, is a potential danger to children and others. Potential lead exposure is a pressing issue that requires attention to avoid health issues. Racial segregation makes consequences of lead exposure worse. Racial segregation and lead exposure amplified each other's detrimental effects on reading scores in children. The findings could guide interventions aimed at improving children's cognitive development (NIH 8.30.2022). In addition, the air and environment may have an elevated lead level contributing to and creating overall lead exposure. This session will discuss roadblocks to comprehensively address childhood lead exposure and provide examples of where/how The Lead Abatement Resource Center has taken action and achieved quantifiable results.

WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) — Some lawmakers say it is time to remove some federal barriers and allow advanced practice registered nurses to better provide care to the patients they serve.
“It’s gonna make a huge difference for patients,” Rep. Lucille Roybal-Allard (D-Calif.) said.
Roybal-Allard wants Congress to recognize the role advanced practice registered nurses have in the U.S healthcare system.
“They include nurse practitioners, nurses, anesthetists, nurse midwives and clinical nurse specialists,” Roybal-Allard said.
Her legislation aims to improve healthcare access for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries by expanding the authority the highly trained nurses have to treat these patients. The bill’s Republican co-sponsor, Rep. Dave Joyce (R-Ohio) says the country can’t, “afford to undervalue the essential contributions our nurses make.”
The bill looks to remove federal requirements for physician oversight of APRNs when they do things like writing a prescription or supervising medical rehab.
“These law and negotiations reduce access to care and create disruptions in care,” Roybal-Allard said.
The American Association of Nurse Practitioners says the current regulations prevent these nurses from administering proper care.
“The I CAN Act would remove these barriers, fully realizing the potential of our np workforce at a time, when it is needed the most,” AANP President April Kapu said.
Roybal-Allard says she is confident they will get more lawmakers to recognize that fewer regulations will benefit patients.

Ezekiel Elliott’s strong message to Cowboys after Dak Prescott injury
The Dallas Cowboys 2022 season got off to a very rough start in Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Not only did they lose by a score of 19-3, but they also lost their star quarterback Dak Prescott to a thumb injury that will hold him out for the next 6-8 weeks. In the wake of Prescott’s injury, running back Ezekiel Elliott has a plea for the Cowboys coaching staff that he’s hoping they will listen to.

The Dallas Cowboys will be without starting quarterback Dak Prescott for at least the next four weeks.

Max Kellerman issues apology after insinuating Cardinals slugger Albert Pujols is cheating
Albert Pujols has had a magical season, his last as an MLB superstar. Back with the St. Louis Cardinals for one more go, Pujols has seemingly regained his old form. He looks like the Albert Pujols who hit 49 home runs in 2006. Well, he's not quite on that pace this season, but at 42 years old, it's incredible that he's hit 18 dingers so far to this point.

HONG KONG, Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Taoping Inc. (NASDAQ: TAOP, the "Company" or "TAOP"), today announced that on September 16, 2022, it received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq"), notifying the Company that it is currently not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of US$1.00 per share. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) provides that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of 30 consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company's ordinary shares for the 30 consecutive business days from August 4, 2022 through September 15, 2022, the Company no longer meets the minimum bid price requirement. This press release is issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification. The notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company's ordinary shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker "TAOP".
Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until March 15, 2023 (the "Compliance Period"), to regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid price requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period, the closing bid price per share of the Company's ordinary shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company a written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed.
In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by March 15, 2023, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day grace period. If the Company does not qualify for the second compliance period or fails to regain compliance during the second 180-day period, then Nasdaq will notify the Company of its determination to delist the Company's ordinary shares, at which point the Company will have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

NEW YORK (AP) — A mother charged with drowning her three children at New York's Coney Island beach was arraigned on murder charges Friday, authorities said.
Erin Merdy, 30, was charged with first and second-degree murder in the deaths of her children Zachary Merdy, 7, Liliana Stephens-Merdy, 4, and Oliver Bondarev, 3 months, a spokesperson for the Brooklyn district attorney's office said.
Merdy was arraigned remotely from the hospital where she was sent for a psychiatric examination. A request for comment was sent to her attorney at Brooklyn Defender Services.
Officers searched the Coney Island shoreline early Monday after a relative called 911. According to the criminal complaint, Merdy had told the relative “that she had hurt her children and that they are gone.”
Police found Merdy on the boardwalk, wet and barefoot. The children were later found unresponsive at the water's edge. They were pronounced dead at a hospital. The city medical examiner's office ruled their deaths homicides by drowning.
Evidence against Merdy includes video that shows her walking toward the ocean with the children just before 1 a.m. Monday, according to the complaint.

BERLIN (AP) — Germany is taking control of three Russian-owned refineries in the country to ensure energy security before an embargo on oil from Russia takes effect next year, officials said Friday.
Two subsidiaries of Russian oil giant Rosneft — Rosneft Deutschland GmbH and RN Refining & Marketing GmbH — will be put under the administration of Germany’s Federal Network Agency, the Economy Ministry said in a statement.
As a result, the agency will also control the companies’ shares in the refineries PCK Schwedt, MiRo and Bayernoil, located in the east and south of Germany.
“This is a far-reaching energy policy decision to protect our country,” German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said. “We’ve long known that Russia isn’t a reliable supplier of energy anymore.”
“With today’s decision, we’re ensuring that Germany is supplied with oil in the medium- and long-term as well,” Scholz said. “That is particularly true for the Schwedt refinery.”
The facility provides petroleum products to much of northeastern Germany, including Berlin.
Rosneft accounts for about 12% of Germany’s oil refining capacity, importing oil worth several hundred million euros (dollars) every month, the ministry said.
It said the move would help ensure continued energy supplies and was initially due to last for six months.
Rosneft had previously made clear it had no intention to stop imports of oil via the Druzhba pipeline, which runs from Russia through Ukraine to refineries in central Europe, despite a looming EU embargo coming into force on Jan 1, 2023.
Scholz said a 1-billion-euro (dollar) aid package would secure jobs for about 1,200 people currently working at the PCK refinery in Schwedt and help with its long-term transformation as part of the transition toward a green economy.
Economy Minister Robert Habeck said the refinery would in the future receive oil through a pipeline from the port city of Rostock and via neighboring Poland, which had refused to provide supplies as long as there was a risk that Rosneft might profit from them.

RCMP divers drew notice from passersby at Maffeo Sutton Park this morning.
A four-man dive team was searching the ocean floor in Nanaimo Harbour along the shore of the park and the Harbourfront Walkway on Friday, Sept. 16.
Const. Marc LeBlanc, with the RCMP’s federal serious and organized crime unit, was acting as the team’s dive instructor and said the operation was a training exercise, but the divers were also assisting with a police investigation.
He said he was not able to share information about what divers were searching for or which investigation the dive operation was assisting with. He said the dive team would be operating at the park until early afternoon Friday.

LONDON — King Charles III and his three siblings have stood around their mother’s coffin as it lies in state at Westminster Hall in London.
Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward stood with their backs to the flag-draped coffin of Queen Elizabeth II, their heads bowed.
Members of the public who had lined up for hours to pay their last respects continued to file past as the royals stood vigil in the historic event.
On Saturday, the queen's eight grandchildren will hold a similar vigil.
The line of people waiting to pay their final respects covered 5 miles on Friday. Some people were told the wait could be as long as 24 hours. The government also warned that “overnight temperatures will be cold.”
British soccer star David Beckham was among the crowd who lined up to see the queen's coffin. He reportedly waited in line for 13 hours before arriving in Westminster Hall.
“We have been lucky as a nation to have had someone who has led us the way her majesty has led us, for the amount of time, with kindness, with caring and always reassuring," Beckham said. "I think that’s the one thing that we all felt safe and we will continue that with the royal family. But I think (her) majesty was someone special and will be missed, not just by everyone in our country but everyone around the world.”
Queen Elizabeth II will lie in state until Monday morning. The casket will then be moved to Westminster Abbey for the queen's funeral.

The Phantom of the Opera, Broadway’s longest running show, will close in February following its 35th anniversary in January, sources have confirmed.
The news comes as the musical, known for its falling chandelier, its half-masked title character and its most famous song “The Music of the Night,” has become an icon of Broadway over the decades but has been as susceptible as other productions to the soft Covid market and weak tourist climate.
The musical, which has long played at the Majestic Theatre, will play its final performance on Feb. 18, 2023.
With music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, lyrics by Charles Hart, and a libretto by Lloyd Webber and Richard Stilgoe, and produced by Cameron Mackintosh and The Really Useful Group, Phantom opened in London’s West End in 1986 and, two years later, on Broadway, with direction by Harold Prince. The musical made stars of, or at least cemented the theater legacy, of stars Michael Crawford, as the Phantom, and Webber’s then-wife Sarah Brightman as Christine. Among the records set by the musical over the years is first Broadway production to hit 10,000 performances (in 2012). Reported estimates of the Broadway productions grosses over the years exceed $1 billion.
Among its trove of Tony Awards in 1988 were Best Musical, Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical (Crawford), Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Musical (Judy Kaye), Best Direction of a Musical (Harold Prince), Best Scenic and Costume designs (Maria Björnson) and Best Lighting Design (Andrew Bridge).
While the musical still grosses hundreds of thousands of dollars per week – $867,997 for the week ending Sept. 11, the most recent figure available – receipts for the long-running show could be as low as half (or less) of what could be earned at the Majestic, and certainly lag behind more recent musicals such as Hamilton, Into The Woods, MJ, Moulin Rouge! and Six, and even behind other Broadway stalwarts as The Lion King and Wicked. Average ticket price for Phantom last week was about $83, a bargain compared to the average prices commanded by such musicals as Funny Girl ($175), Hamilton ($197), Into the Woods ($112) and MJ ($152), among others.
The West End production of Phantom, which closed during the Covid shutdown in 2020 and returned with a slimmed-down orchestra, remains open.
Rumbles about Phantom‘s closing was first reported today by the New York Post, setting off considerable speculation on the internet. According to The New York Times, the cast, crew and orchestra were informed of the closing today.

Mondelez (MDLZ) Faces Cost Woes, Banks on Efficient Pricing
Most food companies are encountering escalated input cost hurdles, and Mondelez International, Inc. MDLZ is not immune to the same. The company has been battling cost inflation and supply-chain headwinds for a while now. These hurdles worsened due to the Ukraine war. Adverse currency movements are also a threat to its performance.
That said, efficient pricing endeavors are an upside. Mondelez has also been gaining from strength in emerging markets and its focus on expansion through acquisitions.
The company has been expanding its snacking category. As consumers prefer snacking over traditional meals, the company’s core categories — chocolates and biscuits — have historically depicted resilience to economic downturns and pricing actions. Consumers in developed countries consider chocolates and biscuits as affordable indulgences and one of the most-valued snacking products.
Let’s take a closer look.
Factors Acting as Deterrents
In the second quarter of 2022, the adjusted gross profit margin contracted by 210 basis points (bps) to 37.9% due to increased raw material and transportation costs and an adverse mix. Also, the adjusted operating income margin contracted by 110 bps to 15.1% due to inflated input costs and an adverse mix.
Mondelez is seeing input cost inflation, especially for energy, transportation, packaging, wheat, dairy and edible oils. The company is also navigating through supply-chain bottlenecks due to labor shortages at third parties.
Management’s guidance for 2022 reflects anticipation of the elevated cost of goods sold inflation, the timing impact of extra pricing actions and the impacts of the Ukraine war.
While commodity cost inflation may ease, management expects other costs, such as wages, to reflect considerable inflation. Apart from input cost inflation, the guidance also includes investments to support brands and other growth-oriented investments.
Mondelez’s vast global presence exposes it to the risk of volatile foreign currency movements. On its second-quarter 2022earnings call management stated that currency movements are likely to negatively impact net revenues by nearly 5% and adjusted EPS by 22 cents in 2022.

Upsides
Robust pricing actions have been offering support to Mondelez. In the second quarter of 2022, pricing actions boosted organic net revenue growth and offered partial respite to the company’s adjusted gross profit margin and adjusted operating margin. These were otherwise hurt by cost inflation and an adverse mix.
The company remains encouraged by the underlying emerging market strength. In the second quarter of 2022, revenues from emerging markets increased by 22.4% to $2,806 million while rising 22.5% on an organic basis. The company saw strength in all major business units.
On its second-quarterearnings call MDLZ stated that consumer confidence was reverting to pre-pandemic levels in emerging markets. The company’s core categories saw robust volumes and penetration growth despite higher pricing.
Mondelez has always been keen on expanding its business through acquisitions. On Aug 2, 2022, Mondelez acquired Clif Bar, which boasts a robust snack bar business worth more than 1 billion. On Apr 25, the company announced that it inked a deal to buy Ricolino, which is likely to strengthen its Mexican footprint.
In January 2022, the company acquired Chipita S.A., which is a major producer of sweet and salty snacks in Central and Eastern Europe. Contributions from this acquisition boosted net revenues in the quarter under review.
In 2021, Mondelez took over a renowned sports performance and active nutrition brand — Grenade. Grenade’s on-trend and tasty products position Mondelez to grow in the United Kingdom as well as other markets. Further, the company acquired the Australia-based food company — Gourmet Food Holdings — which operates in the premium biscuit and cracker category.
Mondelez completed the acquisition of Hu Master Holdings, the parent company of Hu Products, on Jan 4, 2021. The acquisition of Hu provides further growth opportunities in chocolate and cross-category potential in crackers for Mondelez.
The company’s focus on undertaking acquisitions to gain scale in its categories and distribution capabilities bodes well. Mondelez is committed to increasing its focus on areas with higher growth potential. The company divested its beverage assets in 2021 and used the net proceeds as investment in its brands and growth drivers.
On its second-quarter 2022earnings call Mondelez declared plans to offload its developed market Gum & Halls businesses to increase its focus on its faster-growing chocolate and biscuit businesses.

The Madison School District quietly rolled out a policy Thursday that prohibited parents and others outside school buildings from sending email to elementary and middle school students, but then reversed course after the Wisconsin State Journal began asking questions about it.
The change was to officially go into effect Friday, but some parents who sent emails to students Thursday found their messages bouncing back. It was to start two weeks into a school year in which a number of schools are for the first time formally prohibiting students from using cellphones in class or while school is in session.
The new email policy was buried at the bottom of an Aug. 30 online newsletter under the heading, "Tech Service Updates - What You Need to Know for the 2022-23 School Year," but district spokesperson Tim LeMonds said it was also shared with principals as part of an "administrative bulletin" and that principals were free to share the policy with students' families.
It said that students in 4K through eighth grade would "no longer be able to send or receive emails or file-sharing requests from individuals outside of (the Madison School District) domain (@madison.k12.wi.us) or their respective buildings."
The “welcome back” digital newsletter was emailed to district families on Sept. 2.
In an email Thursday, LeMonds said the policy has been "paused."
The district "is committed to providing safe communication systems which promote respectful digital citizenship environments for all of our scholars and families," the email said. "In consideration of this commitment, (the district) has paused and lifted its recently incorporated safety protocol of restricting external emails to 4K-8 students to allow for broader conversations on the topic and further consideration."
Before this school year, district technical services implemented the practice to strengthen student safety and to protect sensitive and confidential student data, the email said.
It said that school districts around the country have been adopting similar protocols over concerns of student access to gmail accounts and to strengthen their defense against outside parties gaining access to student information.
"We look forward to providing you additional information on this and all future student safety protocols in the upcoming months," the email said.
When the protocol was in place, all external emails were restricted for K-8 students.
High school students were never part of the aborted policy. "The only change impacting students in grades 9-12 is the ability to email students in grades 4k-8," the newsletter said.
East and La Follette high schools and O'Keeffe Middle School are among those that have cracked down on student use of cellphones. The district has not provided a complete list of the schools that have changed their policies and in what ways.
Melissa Salisbury said she occasionally emails her daughter, a sixth-grader at Toki Middle School, to check in or send encouragement.
Salisbury supports the school’s new policy limiting cellphone use during the school day and understands the need to limit spam and other unwanted messages, but said cutting off parents’ ability to email their children went too far.
"I want my kid focused on academics and in-person relationships and positive socialization — off of screens," she said. "Also, we live in a society where scary things happen in schools. We want to have some way to communicate."
Salisbury called the district’s communication of the policy change "infuriating."
"Just be transparent," she said. "Make sure people are aware of that so we can preview that with our kids and have that understanding. It just causes all these little unnecessary hiccups in our lives."
State Journal reporter Chris Hubbuch contributed to this report.

The Green Party of Vancouver has dropped one of its candidates for the Vancouver Park Board over allegations of “unauthorized handling and use” of its list of supporters, with just a month to go before the city’s municipal election.
In a media release Friday, the Greens said their board of directors had voted to withdraw their endorsement for Liam Menard on Wednesday after he allegedly admitted to the misuse of data.

“The Party moved swiftly to investigate and subsequently withdrew its endorsement from Park Board Candidate Liam Menard as soon as it became apparent that data was used in a way that contravened Green Party values, its candidate agreement, and the law,” according to the release.
The Greens said they have emailed everyone on the party’s supporter contact list to warn them of possible “misuse and mishandling of private information.”
“We deeply regret that our previously endorsed Candidate violated our trust and the trust of our supporters,” Green council candidate Pete Fry said in the release.
“We will conduct a review to understand what we can do to better protect our supporters’ privacy.”
Global News is seeking comment from Menard.
Menard’s candidate page has been removed from the party’s website.
Prior to its removal, it described him as president and chairman of the False Creek Community Association’s board of directors, an appointed member of the Vancouver Renter’s Advisory Committee and a former director of the Surfrider Foundation.
The Greens further alleged that they believe “some or all” of their supporter list is in the possession of the Progress Vancouver party, and called on it to ” immediately cease all campaign communications until the matter has been investigated and the list has been purged.”
Reached by email, Progress Vancouver party president Scott de Lange Boom would not confirm or deny the allegation.
“Progress Vancouver has gathered lists of prospects from supporters and candidates with networks from across the political spectrum, following all applicable laws regarding data collection and privacy,” he said.
He said anyone receiving unwanted communications from the party can inform them and their names will be removed from its contact list.

Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) is joining a group of liberal House members in opposing Sen. Joe Manchin’s (D-W.Va.) push to pass changes to the environmental review process in a stopgap funding bill.
Markey became the second Democratic-caucusing senator to call for the issues to be separated. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has previously expressed opposition to the West Virginia senator’s reforms.
Democratic leadership promised Manchin they would pass changes to the country’s permitting system to expedite the approval of both fossil and renewable energy projects in exchange for his vote on their climate, tax and healthcare bill.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) has said he would include such changes in a temporary funding measure that would prevent a government shutdown.
But Markey said in a written statement on Friday that the two should not be tied, citing concerns about possible impacts on communities that are already overburdened by pollution.
“As a way forward is discussed, and especially as new anti-environment proposals are being brought to the permitting discussions, we should not attach the permitting overhaul package to the must-pass government funding legislation,” Markey said in a statement on Friday.
However, Markey also acknowledged the importance of the deal with Manchin and said he would speak with colleagues about “whether this package can reflect the values of environmental justice.”
Any funding measure, with or without permitting reforms, would require 60 votes to pass the Senate. If both Markey and Sanders are not on board, at least 12 Republicans will have to vote with the rest of the Democrats to get it across the finish line.
Republicans have long-sought changes similar to those that Manchin is pushing, but some have said that his changes may not go far enough, and that they don’t want to reward him for going along with Democrats’ climate and tax bill.
On the House side, a lot of the opposition has come from Democrats, with nearly 80 of them opposing the idea of tying the funding measure to the permitting changes.
Neither Manchin’s office nor Democratic leaders have released text on the permitting legislation. But, a summary from Manchin’s office says that it would limit how long environmental reviews can take, something liberal opponents warn could restrict community involvement and expedite fossil fuel projects.
Markey has long been a leading voice on environmental issues as one of the namesakes of the ill-fated Obama-era Waxman-Markey bill and, more recently, as the Senate sponsor of the Green New Deal.

Antonio Conte says Son Heung-min is ‘never a problem’ despite anger at goal drought
The Italian has confirmed he will rotate his players for Saturday’s visit of struggling Leicester
Tottenham manager Antonio Conte has acknowledged Son Heung-min is “angry” and lacking confidence, but backed him to do what top players do and overcome his goal drought.
The Spurs forward saw his poor start to the new season continue in midweek after he produced another blank in the 2-0 loss away to Sporting Lisbon.
It means Son has now gone eight games without a goal, having finished the previous campaign as the joint Golden Boot winner in the Premier League alongside Mohamed Salah.
Boss Conte appears to have a decision to make over whether he keeps the 30-year-old in the starting line-up against an out-of-form opponent in the shape of Saturday’s visitors Leicester or give him a well-overdue rest.
He said: “I think Sonny, for sure, is not happy because he’s not scoring.
“It’s normal and I like that he’s a bit angry with this situation because it means that he wants to try to change it, also because we need (him).
“We are talking about Sonny and he’s a really important player for us. At the same time, it can happen, especially when you play massive games, you can be a bit tired mentally, also your body, so it can happen.
“But I repeat Sonny for me would be never, never a problem. We are talking about one of the best two players that we have in our team.
“For sure it can happen that in some games he can’t play from the start, like Harry (Kane) also. But only to protect him, to give the possibility to rest, to take care of his energy and to bring us to win.
“We are talking about players that during the game, they are decisive and we need to have these players always to be at the top.”
You have to go back to the summer of 2020 – away at Bournemouth – for the last time Son started a Premier League match on the bench when fully fit.
Since then the South Korean has played almost every minute when available for Tottenham and hit the 20-goal mark in each of the last two campaigns.
“When you score a lot of goals, the following season is more difficult because you are not an underdog, but are starting like you are the first top scorer up there with Mohamed Salah,” Conte explained.
“But when you don’t (score), for sure the confidence goes a bit down. At the same time, I think a strong player copes with this situation, faces this situation… and overcomes this situation.
“And again I repeat – Sonny has a lot of credit with me, with his team-mates, with the fans and with the whole environment. For this reason, Sonny for me will never be a problem.”
While Conte is still deciding what to do with Son, his mind does seem set on making changes for the clash with the Foxes.
Clement Lenglet, Ryan Sessegnon and Dejan Kulusevski are all in line for recalls.
Conte conceded his recent decision to drop Kulusevski for three matches in a row forced him to change his usual policy when leaving players on the bench.
He added: “Saturday we need energy, we need energy. We finished the game against Sporting with not a lot of energy and for this reason I am a bit upset, because despite the big effort we did in the game, at the end we lost the game.
“For sure I will make rotation on Saturday. We will see (who) but I repeat. I try to make the best decision in every moment for the team, not for myself.
“To drop Deki for three games in a row, honestly for me it was difficult. I don’t like to give explanations to my players because otherwise in every game I have to speak to one, to another one and another.
“I think the most important thing is to have respect about the role. But at the same time, I spoke with Deki because after three times in a row that you go on the bench, I think that he deserved to feel that my trust, my confidence, was like always. It was only a tactical decision.”

Shotzi Possibly Getting Back Previous Elements Of Her Character
September 16, 2022 | Posted by
Shotzi could be getting some of her old character hallmarks back, according to a new report. Fightful Select reports that as of Thursday night, there were plans in place to bring the Smackdown star’s trademark tank that she drove to the ring to Anaheim for tonight’s show.
Shotzi was among those who lost part of their name when they moved to the main roster, similar to the likes of Austin Theory, Matt Riddle, and Tommaso Ciampa. There’s no word on whether she will be billed as Shotzi Blackheart again, and it is not confirmed that the tank will actually be used, but it was brought to the site of tonight’s show.
Smackdown airs live tonight on FOX.

WASHINGTON — (AP) — Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan on Monday cautioned that courts look political and forfeit legitimacy when they needlessly overturn precedent and decide more than they have to.
Speaking less than three months after a five-justice conservative majority overturned Roe v. Wade's constitutional guarantee of abortion access, Kagan said the public's view of the court can be damaged especially when changes in its membership lead to big changes in the law.
She stressed that she was not talking about any particular decision or even a string of rulings with which she disagreed.
Still, her remarks were similar to points made in dissenting opinions she wrote or contributed to in recent months, including in the abortion case.
“Judges create legitimacy problems for themselves ... when they instead stray into places where it looks like they’re an extension of the political process or when they’re imposing their own personal preferences,” Kagan said at Temple Emanu-El in New York. The event was livestreamed.
The 62-year-old New Yorker struck a different tone from Chief Justice John Roberts, who spoke to a gathering of judges and lawyers in Colorado Springs, Colorado, last week.
"Simply because people disagree with an opinion is not a basis for questioning the legitimacy of the court,” Roberts said.
The chief justice has been a consistent defender of the court's legitimacy against complaints that the court is not much different from the political branches of the government.
But Kagan said the court risks damaging its own legitimacy when big changes in the law follow changes in the court's membership.
The public has a right to expect, she said, “that changes in personnel don’t send the entire legal system up for grabs.” Kagan joined the court in 2010, an appointee of President Barack Obama.
Three of the justices who are part of the court's conservative majority were appointed by President Donald Trump. They voted to overturn Roe, and also imposed limits on the Biden administration's efforts to fight climate change, expanded gun rights and weakened the separation between church and state.
In the court term that begins next month, the court will take up a challenge to the use of race in college admissions, just six years after the court reaffirmed affirmative action in higher education.
Kagan also briefly addressed the unprecedented leak of the draft opinion in the abortion case, saying it makes the justices' jobs much harder "when you might wake up tomorrow morning and there's an opinion on the front page of the newspapers."
She said she does not know if the investigation Roberts ordered in May has determined the source of the leak.

Sexual assault reported in the queue to view Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin
By Ivana Kottasová and Jorge Engels, CNN
A man has been charged after allegedly sexually assaulting two women in the queue for Queen Elizabeth II’s lying in state in London on Wednesday, the Crown Prosecution Service told CNN.
A spokesperson for the Crown Prosecution Service said on Friday that the man was charged with two counts of breaching a sexual harm prevention order and two counts of sexual assault on a female.
Police arrested him after he allegedly exposed himself and pushed into the two women from behind, according to PA. The Metropolitan Police said the women had been queuing to see the Queen’s coffin after Westminster Hall opened its doors Wednesday.
The incident happened in Victoria Tower Gardens outside the Houses of Parliament.
The Metropolitan Police’s Deputy Assistant Commissioner Stuart Cundy said he was not able to comment on details of the case, but said “officers were on hand to immediately respond and arrest the man.”
The Queen’s lying in state has attracted unprecedented number of people, who have been queuing for many hours at all times of the day.
The queue stretches from Westminster Hall for miles along the south bank of the River Thames. The line had to be closed several times on Friday after reaching its capacity. As of Friday afternoon, the government’s official tracker was advising waiting time of 24 hours.
Cundy said stewards and police officers were present throughout the route of the queue.
“There has been very little crime or other incidents where officers have had to intervene,” he said, adding: “I continue to ask all members of the public to remain vigilant and if you see something that doesn’t look right, please report it to an officer or steward.”
PA Media has reported that around 10,000 police officers could be on duty each day in the lead-up to the Queen’s State Funeral. It is expected to be “the biggest security operation the country has ever seen,” PA reported, citing Former Metropolitan Police commander Bob Broadhurst.

SEATTLE (AP) — Crews later this month will begin trying to recover the wreckage of a seaplane that crashed in Puget Sound off Whidbey Island in Washington state, killing 10.
The National Transportation Board said Friday it will work with the Navy to collect the wreckage of the DHC-3 Turbine Otter. The effort is expected to begin Sept. 26. The plane crashed Sept. 4 northwest of Seattle.
In a statement, the NTSB said the Navy will use a remotely operated vehicle, a barge and a crane to lift the wreckage from the seafloor. The wreckage, about 190 feet (58 meters) below the water, was found with sonar.
Also Friday, the NTSB released a preliminary investigative report. The report contained witness statements and other details, but authorities said it could be up two two years before a probable cause was determined.
According to witnesses, the plane was flying level before it climbed slightly, then pitched down in a “near-vertical descent.” Some witnesses said the airplane was spinning as it crashed into the sea.
The flight left Friday Harbor, a popular tourist destination in the San Juan Islands, and was headed to Renton Municipal Airport.
The plane went down in Mutiny Bay off Whidbey Island, roughly 30 miles (50 kilometers) northwest of downtown Seattle.

Churchill Downs discusses big plans for Ellis Park
HENDERSON, Ky. (WFIE) - Officials with Churchill Downs took some time to speak with us about Thursday’s big announcement.
Churchill Downs Senior VP of Corporate Development Jason Sauer says they are buying Ellis Park for $79 million dollars, and they will also spend another $75 million, over the next two years, on the Henderson track and the entertainment venue in Owensboro.
He says both venues with help each other. The entertainment venue will generate purse dollars, and that will help fuel the race product at Ellis Park.
”We’re doing a lot of things around the country, but this transaction is really about the opportunity to something special in our back yard, in Henderson and Owensboro, and we’re excited about it,” said Sauer.
He says the agreement will help keep great race horses in the Commonwealth.
”Ellis Park has a great meet right now, but there are a lot of Kentucky based horses that after Churchill completes its meet in June, go out of state, go to New York or some other states for their race meet. A lot of this is about us wanting to keep more of those Kentucky based horses, Kentucky based trainers, in Kentucky year round,” said Sauer.
Planned improvements include a track extension in Henderson, and the entertainment venue at Owensboro’s Towne Square Mall will feature 600 HRMs, and a simulcast wagering center.

Stena Drilling has signed a contract to provide its Stena IceMax to CNOOC Africa for two wells next year.
The drilling company said the work was scheduled to take place in the first quarter of 2023. CNOOC Africa will use the rig to drill two wells off Gabon, with work expected to take a total of 90 days.
Stena welcomed the “repeat business with CNOOC”. The company looks “forward to working with CNOOC to complete this campaign”.
CNOOC International has 100% stakes, and the role of operator, in the BC9 and BCD10 blocks. The company signed up the acreage in 2019 with a commitment to invest $30 million in exploration.
Shell had previously owned the blocks, with CNOOC International holding 25%. Shell made a large deepwater gas discovery in 2014 in the BCD10 licence, around 145 km offshore, in 2,110 metres of water.
The Chinese company has also said the area holds “multiple pre-and-post-salt prospects and leads”.
Gabon brought in a new hydrocarbon code in 2019 with the aim of incentivising new investments. The legislation reduced the required state interest in blocks to 10% and offered reduced taxation for gas production.
Earlier this month, Gabon Minister of Petroleum Vincent de Paul Massassa announced plans by Oil India Ltd (OIL) to carry out a long-term test of the onshore Lassa field.

BEIJING (AP) — Chinese consumer spending and factory output edged up in August but still were weak, official data showed Friday, and forecasters warned the second-largest economy is vulnerable to repeated shutdowns of cities to fight virus outbreaks.
Housing sales plummeted while prices edged lower, adding to a slide in real estate activity under pressure from a government campaign to control surging corporate debt that set off an economic slump in mid-2021.
“China’s economy held up slightly better than anticipated last month, but momentum still weakened,” said Julian Evans-Pritchard of Capital Economics in a report. “September is shaping up to be even worse.”
Chinese leaders are trying to prop up economic growth that sank to 2.5% over a year earlier in the first six months of 2022, less than half the official 5.5% target, without big stimulus spending that might push up debt and housing costs.
Economists say this year's Chinese economic growth might come in below 3%, less than half of last year's 8.1%. The ruling Communist Party has stopped talking about being able to meet its 5.5% target.
Retail sales, one of China's most important economic engines, rose 5.4% in August over a year earlier, double the previous month’s 2.7% growth, according to the National Bureau of Statistics. That beat forecasts of 3.3%.
Factory output grew by 4.2%, up from July’s 3.8% but still weak by Chinese standards. Investment in factories, real estate and other fixed assets edged up to 5.8% from the previous month’s 5.7%.
China's rebound from the pandemic was disrupted by anti-virus measures that shut down Shanghai and other industrial centers starting in March. Those restrictions have eased but controls have been temporarily reimposed on the southern business center of Shenzhen and other cities to control outbreaks.
The economy “remains at risk from future lockdowns,” said Robert Carnell of ING in a report.
The ruling party is sticking with a “zero COVID” strategy that calls for keeping the disease out of China by isolating every case. Officials have responded to complaints about the rising economic cost and social disruption by warning that lifting controls will lead to outbreaks that will be more expensive and destructive.
Housing sales fell 30.3% from a year earlier, reflecting disruption as builders cope with tighter limits on their use of debt. Many buyers appear to be reluctant to spend after thousands of apartments that already were paid for were left unfinished, forcing local authorities in some areas to step in and try to complete them.
Prices paid for new homes declined 0.3% from July.
“As a major pool of Chinese household wealth, this won’t help encourage spending,” said Carnell. “These numbers are likely to remain a blot on the economic landscape for quite a while."

South Sudan: Extended roadmap for lasting peace deal, a ‘way point, not an end point’
Since 2018, the Revitalized Agreement between the key players in South Sudan’s long-running civil war has provided a framework for peace, the Head of the UN mission there, UNMISS, told the Security Council on Friday – “despite continued outbreaks of intercommunal violence”.
UN Special Representative Nicholas Haysom said that although key provisions of the Agreement are set to end by February, the parties agreed in August on a Roadmap that extends the current transitional period by 24 months.
While a welcome development, he reminded that “there is no alternative to the implementation of the peace agreement”.
“Let me underscore that the roadmap is a way point, not an end point”, he said.
1/4 SRSG Haysom @ UNSC: "Subnational violence—marked by cycles of cattle raiding, abductions, revenge killings—continues devastate communities and drive humanitarian needs." pic.twitter.com/3K78FQefze
— UNMISS (@unmissmedia) September 16, 2022
Inclusive political process
The UNMISS chief flagged the importance of an inclusive political process and the opening of civic spaces as “essential conditions” for a robust and competitive electoral process.
He then outlined some steps underway - from President Salva Kiir and first Vice-President Riek Machar’s agreement to resolve the parliamentary impasse, to the graduation of the first class of joint armed forces recruits - for which budgetary resources, integration and deployment, are vital to allow a broader security sector transformation.
“Failure to address these critical issues...have the potential to reverse the gains made,” Mr. Haysom warned.
Violence continues
He went on to describe violence on the regional level, marked by cycles of cattle raiding, abduction, and revenge killings along with fighting in Upper Nile state that has displaced thousands of people.
The Special Representative reported that while conflict-related violence is also increasing, UNMISS continues to support prevention through policy frameworks and other areas.
“The Mission is strengthening its support to the justice chain in each state...to address crimes that risk destabilizing the peace, including those involving gender-based violence,” he told the ambassadors.
‘Double pivot’
Mr. Haysom said that UNMISS has managed to accomplish a “double pivot” in its focus and operations, by channeling resources towards the political process; proactive deployment to violent hotspots; and expanding its protection presence for civilians.
He assured that South Sudan’s natural resources have “tremendous potential” for either conflict, or cooperation.
“It is always political that can make the difference”.
Turning to the humanitarian situation, he acknowledged that food security continues to deteriorate, leaving some 8.3 million people in need and outstripping available funding.
Noting that the Humanitarian Response Plan is only 44.6 per cent funded, he urged donors to fulfil their pledges.
‘Litmus test’
He asserted that the next few months would be “a litmus test” for the parties to demonstrate their commitment to the Roadmap, warning against “delays and setbacks”.
In closing, the Special Representative reaffirmed the importance of the international community’s support.
“Our collective task now is to support the parties in fulfilling their obligations to the people of South Sudan as per the timing of the Roadmap,” he concluded.
Indispensable timelines
Meanwhile, Lilian Riziq, President, South Sudan Women’s Empowerment Network discussed a broad-based and inclusive process for all key participants, underscoring the need for a new transitional governance process.
She underscored that election timelines are indispensable, noting that four years on, levels of revitalized agreement implementation have not brought security or ended humanitarian misery.
She also highlighted ways that precious oil revenues in South Sudan, have been heavily misused.

Marjorie Taylor Greene appears to be kicking off an 18-year-old activist in a now-viral video taken outside the Capitol on Thursday afternoon.
For some incomprehensible reason, Greene was the one who shared the clip.
Related: Marjorie Taylor Greene tries to take down Kathy Griffin, fails miserably
The Washington Post reports that Greene was “at first appearing to step on demonstrator Marianna Pecora’s foot” and then “appearing to intentionally draw back her foot and aim for Pecora’s leg.”
“Oh my God,” Pecora says in the clip.
These foolish cowards want the government to take away guns & the rights of parents to defend their children in schools.
You have to be an idiot to think gun control will create a utopian society where criminals disarm themselves and obey the law.
“Gun-free” zones kill people. pic.twitter.com/1T37HH8jEO
— Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene?? (@RepMTG) September 15, 2022
Ok, we’re guessing there weren’t any injuries, but it’s still not a good look!
Pecora is the deputy communications director of the Gen. Z group Voters of Tomorrow and was with the group’s executive director, Santiago Mayer, when the alleged kick happened.

In an emailed statement, Voters of Tomorrow added:
“Far-right Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has spent her time in office launching attacks against our democracy and the young people who will soon inherit it. This afternoon, she took her offenses to another level, as she physically and verbally attacked members of our team. In addition to yelling at our Executive Director, a Mexican immigrant, to ‘go to another country,’ she physically assaulted another young staffer. Gen Z is fed up with politicians who continue to put our lives in danger, and this aggression is one of the most visible examples yet of what we are up against.”
And of course, the kick tweets are piling up….
Marjorie Taylor Greene kicking someone?
How bout we kick her out of office this Roevember!#TheView #RoeRoeRoeYourVote— Chandradatt Jagdeo ?? ?? ? (@ChandradattJag1) September 16, 2022

A note to @RepMTG: Gen Z will kick you harder than ever before by not only calling you out on all your lies, but also by voting you out of office. You picked the wrong fight by messing with young people.

FORTY days and counting have passed since a heartbroken mom has seen her daughter, who she believes was kidnapped.
Jolissa Fuentes was last seen around 4am on August 7, when surveillance video at a Selma, California gas station recorded her getting out of her car to buy snacks.
Now Jolissa's family have taken matters into their own hands and turned to a private investigator.
"We're not waiting for the police to find her," her mom Norma Nunez said. "We're going to bring her home."
On Wednesday they raised the reward for information about Jolissa's whereabouts to $15,000 and today released new photos to The U.S. Sun.
All of the reward money came from either donations or raised through raffles and GoFundMe.
"I'm praying today and everyday that she comes home. Whoever has her has to let her go. Her family needs her back," Nunez said.
Police held their first press conference this week since Jolissa vanished, but they didn't have any updates.
Since then, her mom Norma Nunez has been juggling media interviews, working her daily job to pay bills and using every tool available as part of her search for Jolissa.
She's doing all this while trying to block the depressing thoughts from seeping into her head and taking control.
Most read in The US Sun
"Today was not good. I woke up not feeling well," Nunez told The U.S. Sun on Friday.
"It's been 40 days today. I tried going to work, but I couldn't do it and came home. I need my Jolissa back."
"SOMEONE HAS HER"
Selma police said from the start that Jolissa's disappearance is being investigated as a criminal matter.
Nunez told The U.S. Sun in a previous interview that she believes her daughter was kidnapped but has a gut feeling she's still alive.
"Someone has her," she said.
Adventures With Purpose (AWP), an Oregon-based volunteer diving search team that found missing girl Kiely Rodni's truck and body in the water, scoured the lakes where Jolissa's phone last pinged.
But there was no sign of her, which her mom called a relief.
On Wednesday, AWP uploaded two documentary-type videos on YouTube about their search to raise more awareness for Jolissa.
HAUNTING LAST CLUES
Jolissa's family and friends posted pictures of a black Micheal Kors backpack that she wore the last time she was seen.
Jolissa is said to have told her brother that she was going to the store and she'll "be right back" after stopping at her gran’s house to pick up the bag containing money for the shop.
She also tried to FaceTime her sister at 3.59am, but Jolissa's sister was sleeping and didn't answer.
"Why did she FaceTime? Did she want to show us something? Was something wrong?" her mom said.
"Everything's been going through our heads."
SELMA'S TERRAIN AND TIPLINE
The area around the cities of Sanger and Selma is a vast countryside with woods and lakes that neighbor several mountains.
Adventures With a Purpose ruled out the lakes.
Family and friends set up an online, interactive map to coordinate the search efforts that they posted in Facebook groups.
Authorities continue to search for a 2011 silver Hyundai with the license plate 8MPU766, which remains missing.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Selma Police Department at (559) 891-2252.

Lakers News: Dennis Schröder Returning To L.A. On One-Year Deal
Your Los Angeles Lakers appear to be shoring up their point guard depth with (what else?) another former Laker.
Veteran point guard Dennis Schröder, who suited up for L.A. during the 2020-21 season, is returning to the club on a one-year deal, his agent Marc Bartelstein informs Marc Stein. Stein had previously reported in August that the team was seriously considering bringing Schröder back.
Per Shams Charania of The Athletic, the contract is set to pay Schröder a veteran's minimum salary of $2.64 million for the 2022-23 season. This is a far, far cry from the four-year, $84 million extension he reportedly rejected during his lone prior year with L.A. Schroder joined the Lakers in a trade, riding high off his second season with the Oklahoma City Thunder in which he earned Sixth Man of the Year honors on a playoff-bound OKC squad. As the Lakers' starting point guard, his fortunes began to turn, though he still put up decent numbers. Across 61 games, he averaged 15.4 points, 5.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals, with shooting splits of .437/.335/.848.
After his Los Angeles stint flamed out with a lackluster playoff performance in the team's six-game elimination to Phoenix that spring, Schröder wound up signing with the Boston Celtics on a $5.9 million mid-level deal. Boston traded the point guard to the Houston Rockets later in the season, immediately improving its locker room chemistry and solidifying its defense en route to an eventual 2022 NBA Finals run.
Read More
Last year with the Celtics and Rockets, Schroder posted averages of 13.5 points, 4.6 assists and 3.3 rebounds a night, while shooting .431/.344/.853. Though L.A. remains desperate for three-point shooting, Schroder is hardly elite from deep. In his nine NBA seasons thus far, he is averaging 33.8% on 3.4 attempts from long range, a bit below league average.
More recently, Schröder starred for the German national team in EuroBasket competition this summer. His club was eliminated today by Spain in the semifinal round, though the 6'3" vet posted averages of 26 points and eight boards across his three elimination contests.
Ramona Shelburne of ESPN indicates that the 29-year-old had been in discussions with L.A. for a while this summer, and developed a relationship with new Lakers head coach Darvin Ham while playing for the Atlanta Hawks (Ham was then an assistant under Mike Budenholzer).
The move seems to suggest that the Lakers office is insuring the team for an eventual Russell Westbrook deal. Otherwise, the team would be fielding way too many mediocre point guards with this signing.
Currently, the Lakers are now paying four veteran guards who stand at a listed 6'3" or shorter (Westbrook, Patrick Beverley, combo guard Kendrick Nunn, and now Schröder) a combined $68 million. Shooting guards Lonnie Walker IV and Austin Reaves look like the other current backcourt players likely to earn minutes in the rotation. None of these players will be an All-Star in 2022-23. Schröder and Nunn can play at either guard spot in smaller lineups, though the natural position for Westbrook, Beverley and Schröder running the point. It would behoove the team to add more shooting along the wing or at either forward spot in any deal to ship out Westbrook's epic $47.1 million contract.

In trading on Friday, shares of UGI Corp. (Symbol: UGIC) entered into oversold territory, changing hands as low as $87.50 per share. We define oversold territory using the Relative Strength Index, or RSI, which is a technical analysis indicator used to measure momentum on a scale of zero to 100. A stock is considered to be oversold if the RSI reading falls below 30.
In the case of UGI Corp., the RSI reading has hit 28.0 — by comparison, the universe of energy stocks covered by Energy Stock Channel currently has an average RSI of 46.7, the RSI of WTI Crude Oil is at 43.1, the RSI of Henry Hub Natural Gas is presently 44.7, and the 3-2-1 Crack Spread RSI is 29.4. A bullish investor could look at UGIC's 28.0 reading as a sign that the recent heavy selling is in the process of exhausting itself, and begin to look for entry point opportunities on the buy side.
Looking at a chart of one year performance (below), UGIC's low point in its 52 week range is $83.36 per share, with $106.57 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $87.50. UGI Corp. shares are currently trading down about 1.2% on the day.

COVID Dashboard: UCSF and San Mateo County Health to study long COVID
News of the week
COVID news has been good lately. Omicron-targeting boosters are out , and the Bay Area as a whole is seeing its lowest case counts since April .
Locally, cases continue to drop. Monday's update from the Santa Cruz County Health Services Agency listed 778 active cases , 216 fewer than last Tuesday. No new deaths have been reported locally, with the county’s pandemic total remaining at 273.
The updated, Omicron-targeting booster shot is now increasingly available locally at drugstores and health care providers, though with varying wait times.
Walgreens is booked out two weeks in advance at the Scotts Valley and Santa Cruz locations, but has openings at its Freedom location as soon as Friday. Safeway’s county locations have limited availability for the rest of September, but have more openings starting in the first week of October. CVS county locations have very low availability this week, but that is slated to increase significantly next week.
Kaiser Permanente will provide the updated boosters in all of its markets by Sept. 20 at the latest, and Sutter Health will begin scheduling appointments once it receives its supply, which it expects soon.
That said, the pandemic lingers on, in large part due to one especially confounding aspect of the disease: long COVID. But studies to further understand this phenomenon are underway, even nearby.
The University of California San Francisco and San Mateo County Health are joining forces for a study aptly titled “Let’s figure out long COVID.” It is funded by the National Institutes of Health. The goals are to find out how common the condition is in the Bay Area, what causes it, how to prevent it, and how to treat it.
If you have had COVID in the past 30 days and reported your case to your local health department, you are already on the list of people researchers will call for participation. You may inquire via email at figuringoutlongcovid@ucsf.edu or call 415-353-9306.
* * *
Santa Cruz County's three test-to-treat locations are still up and running. Click here to find the closest location.
Currently, Paxlovid is the available medication, showing a 89% reduction in hospitalization and death, and it must be taken within five days of the onset of symptoms to be effective.
Vaccinations and precautions are still strongly recommended.
The easiest way to schedule an appointment for second boosters is at local pharmacies including Rite-Aid, CVS and Walgreens.
Kaiser Permanente and Sutter Health are still administering second boosters to eligible recipients.
Check our links below for quick access to the relevant websites.
Masking rules
Neither the state of California nor Santa Cruz County currently requires indoor masking. For county public schools, as of March 11, masks are optional though highly recommended .
As of April 10, masks are not required for most indoor settings at UC Santa Cruz facilities, though highly recommended . Masks will still be required for on-campus public transportation, in the Early Education Services centers, and in clinical settings.
On April 19, Santa Cruz Metro lifted its mask mandate for vaccinated passengers, following a federal judge's ruling that mask mandates are not required on public transportation .
The latest numbers
How does Santa Cruz compare to California and the U.S. in vaccinations? Where are the most current COVID cases in the county, and how does that compare to population? Here is the most recent data.
As of Monday, there were 778 active cases logged by Santa Cruz County's Health Services Agency. This does not include unreported rapid tests taken at home, so this number is not exact.
The pandemic death toll remains at 273.
Where can I find a vaccine?
At this point, vaccines are widely available across the county. They are free for everyone, whether insured or not.
As of March 31, second booster shots are available to people aged 50 and older as well as people 12 and older who are immunocompromised or who have received Johnson & Johnson as their primary series and booster doses.
Rite-Aid, CVS, Horsnyder Pharmacy, Westside Pharmacy and Walgreens are currently offering second boosters.
Those wanting to get the shot through their primary care provider should check the company's website, as availability may vary.

Generics, added to the Go programming language in March, is already seeing quick adoption, although developers are running into some limitations of the initial implementation.
These findings were included in the Go Developer Survey 2022 Q2 Results, published on September 8. A large majority of survey respondents, 86%, were aware that generics had been included in the Go 1.18 release, and 26% said they already had started using generics in their Go code. More than half of the respondents, 54%, reported being open to using generics but did not yet have a specific need for them.
A smaller group, 8%, wanted to use generics but were prevented from doing so, either by a limitation in the current generics implementation (30%), or by a limitation in supporting tools like linters (26%), or by a steep learning curve or lack of documentation (12%). The blocking issues of the generics implementation cited by respondents included a lack of parameterized methods, a need for improved type inference, and a need for switching on types. Some said the generics syntax felt awkward to use.
Described as the most significant change to the Go language since its 2012 debut, generics give developer a way to write code that is independent of the specific types being used. Generics can provide building blocks to share and reuse code and make it easier to build programs.
The Go Developer Survey 2022 Q2 was conducted in June and factored in 5,752 responses. In other findings:
- Overall satisfaction with Go remains very high, with 93% of respondents saying they were very satisfied (63%) or somewhat satisfied (30%). Only 4% reported being dissatisfied.
- Fuzzing, a type of automated testing that continuously manipulates inputs to locate bugs, is new to most Go developers. Awareness of Go’s built-in fuzz testing among respondents was much lower than awareness of generics.
- Error-handling remains a challenge. This issue moved to the top of the list of Go challenges following the release of generics.
- Third-party dependencies are a top security concern.
Go 1.18 was followed up by the release of Go 1.19 in August. It improved generic code performance and introduced an enhanced memory model.

The Queen’s children will take part in a solemn vigil alongside her coffin at Westminster Hall on Friday evening.
King Charles will be joined by the Princess Royal, the Duke of York and the Earl of Wessex for the tradition, which is known as the Vigil of the Princes.
When they observed a similar vigil as Elizabeth II’s coffin lay in rest at St Giles’ Cathedral earlier this week, Prince Andrew – who is no longer working royal – wore civilian dress.
However, the disgraced Duke is allowed to wear his military uniform at Westminster Hall on Friday – here’s everything you need to know.
Why can Prince Andrew wear military uniform?
The Duke of York is no longer a working royal, and according to protocol should not be permitted to wear uniform during the ceremonial events marking the Queen.
However, he is being permitted to wear military dress at the vigil if he chooses to at Westminster Hall, as a “special mark of respect” for the Queen.
He is expected to be in civilian clothing at the other events, as he was for the St Giles’ service.
Prince Andrew was stripped of his military titles, royal titles and “His Royal Highness” styling in January, after losing an appeal to try and dismiss a potential civil lawsuit by Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who has accused the Royal of forcing her to have sex with him on three occasions when she was 17. He has repeatedly denied the claims.
It followed a letter from more than 150 military veterans to the Queen to ask her to strip Prince Andrew of his honorary military roles amid what they described as their “upset and anger”. He retained his rank as a Vice Admiral.
At the Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral in April 2021, the issue of clothing was dealt with by the Queen, who decided that no members of the Royal Family should wear uniform. It was a break with tradition but seen as the best solution.
What was Prince Andrew’s military service?
Andrew followed his father by entering Britannia Royal Naval College in Dartmouth in 1979, to train as a naval officer. He completed the course in 1980, and received his pilot’s wings in 1981.
The Duke went on to fly helicopters during the Falklands War, as well as serving on the aircraft carrier HMS Invincible.
While the Cabinet had wanted Andrew to take a desk job during the war, but he wanted to serve, and the Queen herself insisted he be allowed to remain in his post.
He spent the majority of his career in aviation, though he also commanded the HMS Cottesmore in 1993 and 1994.
From 1995 to 1996, Andrew was posted as senior pilot of the 815 Naval Air Squadron, which was the largest flying unit in the Fleet Air Arm.
The Duke retired from active duty in 2001 as a commander, but initially remained affiliated to the Royal Navy and kept his titles – in 2015 he was promoted to the honorary rank of vice-admiral.
Why do the other royals wear military dress?
Other members of the Royal Family, including the Queen’s three other children, King Charles III, Princess Anne and Prince Edward, are wearing military dress at the ceremonial events.
King Charles served in both the RAF and Royal Navy, while Prince Edward joined the Royal Marines after leaving university in 1986, though left after a few months of training.
The Princess Royal did not serve in the military herself, but like many royals she holds a number of military honours and titles.
The uniform she has been pictured in is a Royal Navy ceremonial uniform – she was made a Rear Admiral in 1993, before being promoted to Vice Admiral in 2009 and finally Admiral in 2012.
In 2020 Anne was also made a General in the British Army and an Air Chief Marshal in the Royal Air Force.
Harry, like Andrew, has been denied the chance to wear his military uniform as he publicly mourned as he too is no longer a working royal.
However, this decision has been reversed with the Queen’s grandchildren set to honour her memory with a vigil of their own, for which the Duke of Sussesx is permitted to wear military dress.
Harry is a former Army officer who saw action on the front line during two tours of duty in Afghanistan, but has been in civilian dress for official events, including walking behind his grandmother’s coffin during the procession to Westminster Hall.
But the Daily Mirror reported that Palace officials had a change of heart ahead of the vigil, with a source saying “common sense has prevailed”.
What is the Vigil of the Princes?
The tradition dubbed the “Vigil of the Prince” has taken place twice before.
The late Queen Mother’s four grandsons – the former Prince of Wales, the Duke of York, the Earl of Wessex and Viscount Linley, now the Earl of Snowdon – stood guard over her coffin in her honour in 2002 as people continued to walk through Westminster Hall.
King George V’s sons – Edward VIII, the Duke of York (later George VI), Henry, Duke of Gloucester and George, Duke of Kent – carried out the first such tribute in 1936 for their father, late in the evening on the final night of his lying in state.
So far, the vigil has so only been carried out by male members of the family, so Anne, the Princess Royal will be the first female member of the Royal Family to do so.
There was no such vigil for George VI – when he died, he had two daughters and his grandchildren were very young.
The Duke of York is expected to return to military uniform for the final vigil around the Queen’s coffin during the lying in state, but not for the state funeral or other ceremonial elements.
As a non-working member of the royal family, Prince Andrew will wear uniform as a special mark of respect for the Queen at the vigil in Westminster Hall, sources said – however, the Duke of Sussex is not expected to be permitted to do so.

Age 24, the defender of AC Ajaccio will make his starts with the national football team during the next grouping of the Lions for their friendly matches of September 23 and 26, 2022.
He is known for his athletic and offensive qualities; real assets needed for the team in the opposing area. The defender of AC Ajaccio in France, Oumar Gonzalez knows his first selection with the Indomitable Lions. This encounter with coach Rigobert Song will not be the first between the two men who as Song had already given him a chance when he was coaching the U23 selection.
Rigobert Song once again reiterated his confidence in the native of Douala to the delight of the defender, “It touches me to represent the national team, I will give everything for my nation. Now, my objective is to enter the selection well, to show the best side of me,” informs Oumar Gonzalez.
Since the start of the season in France Ligue 1, Oumar Gonzalez has started six times out of seven in Ligue 1. Even if his club is at the bottom of the French league standings and the defender is still trying to gain enough experience, his call-up is part of AC ‘s desire to see the team rejuvenated.

Deadly Clashes Along Kyrgyz-Tajik Border Continue Despite Cease-Fire
By RFE RL
(RFE/RL) — The leaders of Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan have agreed to a cease-fire and ordered their troops to withdraw from disputed border areas as reports of clashes involving heavy artillery that have left several dead continue to raise security concerns in Central Asia.
Kyrgyz presidential spokesman Erbol Sultanbaev said that President Sadyr Japarov and his Tajik counterpart, Emomali Rahmon, discussed the situation while attending the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in neighboring Uzbekistan on September 16.
They agreed to a cease-fire and said a joint commission on the delimitation and demarcation of the border should continue its work. Clashes over the poorly demarcated border are frequent, often flaring up and de-escalating quickly.
The agreement, however, did little to stop the violence that has seen at least three people killed and dozens wounded since fighting broke out two days ago.
“Violating the reached agreements, the Tajik side renewed gunfire at Kyrgyz border guards’ positions in the settlements of Kulundu and Jany-Jer in the Leilek district,” the Kyrgyz border service said, adding that the Tajiks used multiple-rocket launchers against positions in the Batken district.
Border issues in Central Asia stem to a large extent from the Soviet era, when Moscow tried to divide the region between ethnic groups whose settlements were often located amidst those of other ethnicities.
Both countries still host Russian military bases and Moscow again on September 16 called for a halt in the fighting.
The Kyrgyz border guard service has accused Tajik forces of using tanks, armored personnel carriers, and mortars.
It also said the Tajik side early on September 16 had shelled suburbs of the regional capital, Batken, and areas close to the city’s airport, damaging or fully destroying civil infrastructure.
A resident of the village of Dostuk in Kyrgyzstan’s Leilek district, Malik Mannanov, told RFE/RL that his 15-year-old daughter was killed by mortar shrapnel.
The Health Ministry confirmed the girl’s death and said the number of wounded during the latest clashes had reached 87 people.
The head of Kyrgyzstan’s State Committee for National Security, Kamchybek Tashiev, said the Kyrgyz side suffered heavy losses but didn’t give any numbers.
The committee said earlier that Tajik troops occupied a school in Dostuk.
Tajikistan in turn accused Kyrgyz forces of bombarding an outpost and seven villages with “heavy weaponry” in the same area.
A civilian was killed and three injured, authorities in the Tajik city of Isfara said.
Kyrgyzstan reported 42 wounded in its southern Batken Province, which borders Tajikistan’s northern Sughd region and features a Tajik exclave, Vorukh, a key hotspot in recent conflicts.
Tajikistan does not consider Vorukh an exclave, as it believes parts of the disputed segment of the border near it are Tajik territory.
The accounts could not be immediately verified.
Almost half of the 970-kilometer Kyrgyz-Tajik border has yet to be demarcated, leading to repeated tensions and sporadic deadly clashes since the two countries gained independence three decades ago.

A few days after Queen Elizabeth II died on Sept. 8, the Daily Mail published an article with the headline: “Royal beekeeper has informed the Queen's bees that the Queen has died and King Charles is their new boss in bizarre tradition dating back centuries.”
In response to the story, one person on Twitter said they had to check if a parody account posted the article, “because this is just sensational stuff.” Another Twitter user referred to the practice as an example of “hysteria” over the monarch’s passing.
THE QUESTION
Is “telling the bees” a real tradition?
THE SOURCES
- JSTOR Daily, which uses research from JSTOR’s academic journal database to provide context for current events
- Debra Shutika, Ph.D, folklorist and beekeeper
- Mark Norman, folklore author and researcher
- Floyd Shockley, Ph.D, entomologist at the National Museum of Natural History
THE ANSWER
Yes, “telling the bees” is a real tradition, and it’s not reserved just for news about monarchs or death.
WHAT WE FOUND
The practice of “telling the bees” is a tradition in which a beekeeper notifies their honey bees of major events in the beekeeper’s life, such as a death or marriage. It has historically been most common in the U.S. and western Europe.
“It's certainly not a royal tradition,” Mark Norman, a folklore author and researcher, said. “It's not something that would only be done by beekeepers who were keeping swarms for the royal family or other members of that household.”
Instead, Norman said, this is a very old custom that has been practiced by common people who kept bees for their own purposes.
“The idea here is that when there's important news, both good and bad, whether someone is dying or moving away, or if there are babies being born, etc., that you share the news with the bees because they are part of your family and community,” said Debra Shutika, a folklorist and beekeeper.
The news shared by beekeepers who practice this tradition varies from place to place, but informing bees of a notable death is common everywhere it's practiced, says a 2018 article in JSTOR Daily, which uses research from its academic journal database to provide context for current events.
Some beekeepers will knock on their hives and tell the bees the news, Shutika said, while other beekeepers might just simply walk up to the hives and talk to them.
Norman said there was a version of the tradition in New Hampshire where beekeepers would have to sing to the bees the news in rhyming verses.
In the case of a death, the tradition typically calls for the beekeeper to tie a black cloth around the hives or to shroud the bees in some kind of black material. Photos in the Daily Mail article show the royal beekeeper tied a black cloth around the queen’s beehives.
More from VERIFY: No, Prince Philip’s body was not stored in a ‘fancy refrigerator’
Both Norman and Floyd Shockley, an entomologist at the National Museum of Natural History, said the tradition likely traces back to ancient Celtic mythology, although its exact origins aren't known for certain.
But the practice became most common in the 18th and 19th centuries, when it was believed that keeping the bees out of the loop would invite ill fortune, Norman said.
“If you didn't do this the bees would become possibly very ill and stop producing honey, or they would vacate the hives completely because they hadn't been informed,” Norman said. “This obviously comes from a time when superstition was much stronger than it is now, because without the scientific evidence behind it, people looked for obvious reasons why bad things would happen, and then would try to avoid them in the future so that crops didn't fail, so that animals were not sick, and so on.”
Shockley said, perhaps unsurprisingly, there is no scientific evidence bees actually react to what they’re being told. But he suggested that beekeepers might still be capable of communicating information to their bees when they’re telling them the family news.
“Bees and many other social insects do react to tone, volume of sound,” Shockley said. “Many of the times that people are telling the bees they're whispering to the bees because if you are overly aggressive, the bees will respond to tone, volume, perhaps even scent — because your physiology changes when you're angry or sad.”
Shutika said she thinks it’s likely that past royal beekeepers have told the bees about the passing of previous monarchs whenever that’s happened because “generally, this is what a beekeeper will do.”
“These are living creatures, and we've decided to be responsible for them,” Shutika said of beekeepers. “So I think that it's a very common thing for a human, when you're spending so much time taking care of, in this case, an insect or a colony of insects, that you do grow great affection for them. And it would make sense in those contexts to actually share your life with them, particularly important news.”

Court rules in favor of Texas law on social media regulation
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A federal appeals court Friday ruled in favor of a Texas law targeting major social media companies like Facebook and Twitter in a victory for Republicans who accuse the platforms of censoring conservative speech.
But the decision by the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans is unlikely to be the last word in a legal battle that has stakes beyond Texas, and could impact how some of the world’s biggest tech companies regulate content by their users.
The Texas law, signed by Republican Gov. Greg Abbott last year, has been challenged by tech trade groups that warn that it would prevent platforms from removing extremism and hate speech. A similar law was also passed in Florida and ruled unconstitutional by a separate appeal court.
The final say is likely to come from the U.S. Supreme Court, which earlier this year blocked the Texas law while the lawsuit played out.
“Today we reject the idea that corporations have a freewheeling First Amendment right to censor what people say,” U.S. Circuit Court Judge Andrew Oldham wrote.
NetChoice, one of the groups challenging the law, expressed disappointment in a statement that pointed out the ruling was the opposite of the decision made in the lawsuit over the Florida law.
“We remain convinced that when the U.S. Supreme Court hears one of our cases, it will uphold the First Amendment rights of websites, platforms, and apps,” said Carl Szabo, NetChoice’s vice president and general counsel.
Republican elected officials in several states have backed laws like those enacted in Florida and Texas that sought to portray social media companies as generally liberal in outlook and hostile to ideas outside of that viewpoint, especially from the political right.
Justice Samuel Alito wrote in May that is not clear how the high court’s past First Amendment cases, many of which predate the internet age, apply to Facebook, Twitter, TikTok and other digital platforms.
The Florida law, as enacted, would give Florida’s attorney general authority to sue companies under the state’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act. It would also allow individual residents to sue social media companies for up to $100,000 if they feel they have been treated unfairly.
The Texas law only applies to the largest social media platforms that have more than 50,000 active users.

Real Madrid have denounced the use of racist language to denigrate forward Vinicius Junior.
The Brazilian has been the focus of a debate in Spanish sports talk shows and sports news programs about the appropriateness of him dancing when he scores goals.
But Madrid moved to issue a statement in defence of their player after a guest on a televised sports talk show reportedly said Vinicius, who is Black, should stop "doing the monkey."
The club said in the statement on Friday it "rejects all types of racist and xenophobic expression and behaviour in soccer, sports and life in general, such as the regrettable and unfortunate comments in recent hours directed towards our player Vinicius Junior."
The club added it would take legal action against anyone who used racist language against their player.
The debate regarding Vinicius' goal celebrations was sparked after Atletico Madrid's Koke Resurreccion said "there could be trouble" if the Madrid forward dances after a goal on Sunday in the Madrid derby to be played at Atletico's stadium.
Koke appeared to make the comment in jest, but it has been widely commented on.
Even Brazil star Neymar chimed in on social media by tweeting, "Dance Vini Jr."

HARRISONVILLE, Mo., Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Construction of the first phase of the new Mills Cancer and Rheumatology Center at Cass Regional Medical Center is now complete.
Infusion therapy capacity has expanded from five to seven bays. The new bays are more spacious and each has windows featuring views of the hospital's Healing Garden.
"The new infusion center is beautiful and very nicely done," said oncologist/hematologist Jaswinder Singh, MD, who leads the cancer care team at Cass Regional. "It offers compassionate treatment close to home, with care that is comparable to any academic medical center."
"It is a beautiful addition to an already top-notch facility," agreed rheumatologist Kevin Latinis, MD, PhD. "The design with large windows overlooking the gardens makes the experience of getting infusions for rheumatic disorders and cancer therapy a bit more cheerful."
Construction of the Mills Cancer and Rheumatology Center began in March of this year and was made possible in part by a donation from Harrisonville businessman Bill Mills. The next phase of construction will involve renovating the former infusion space, which will become the new waiting area.
"The Cass County community has a lot to be proud of with this facility and we are looking forward to the next stages of enhancement of the rheumatology and oncology clinics," Latinis added.
The entire project is scheduled for completion in mid-2023.
As a critical access hospital, Cass Regional Medical Center maintains a 21-bed medical/surgical unit, a four-bed intensive care unit, and a 10-bed behavioral health unit. Services provided by Cass Regional Medical Center include emergency care; general and specialty surgery; and rehabilitation services which include nationally-recognized cardiac rehabilitation and diabetes education programs. The hospital offers advanced diagnostic capabilities such as MRI, CT and PET-CT scanning, digital and 3-D mammography, nuclear medicine and a nationally-accredited sleep study lab.
Specialists in nearly 20 different areas treat patients on the Cass Regional campus in either the medical center or the adjoining Rock Haven Medical Mall, which is home to Cass Regional's Rock Haven Specialty Clinic, Cass Regional Orthopedics, and Harrisonville Medical Clinic (family medicine, general surgery, and ear, nose and throat). The Wound Center at Rock Haven Specialty Clinic provides comprehensive treatment for chronic, slow-to-heal and serious wounds. Cass Regional also operates five additional family medicine clinics in the communities of Archie, Garden City, Kingsville, Peculiar and Pleasant Hill.

Logan Paul Teases Fans Regarding What He'll Say On WWE SmackDown
Logan Paul is set to be featured on Friday night's episode of "WWE SmackDown" and he teased what he will have to say. Paul recently found himself engaging in a war of words with the Special Counsel to Roman Reigns, Paul Heyman, on social media. WWE Chief Content Officer, Paul "Triple H" Levesque, suggested that Logan Paul address the WWE Universe on "SmackDown."
That's exactly what Paul will do as he's taken to his Twitter account to drop a huge tease on what's being planned.
"Massive announcement tonight," Paul wrote. "Tune in."
It has already been reported by PWInsider that Reigns vs. Paul is the planned main event for Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia on November 5. Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer followed up on this, reporting that WWE will be holding a press conference in Las Vegas for the big match.
Reigns has been a world champion in WWE for over 700 days. His experience certainly tops that of Paul, who has only had two matches in WWE. Granted, Paul has impressed in those two matches and the general consensus is he's the perfect fit for pro wrestling.
In his most recent Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match, Reigns pinned Drew McIntyre at Clash at the Castle in Cardiff, Wales. Paul's last WWE match was back in July at SummerSlam. He defeated The Miz in a well-received match. Time will tell how Paul fares in what will already be one of the biggest, if not, the biggest match he'll ever have.

NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Kiromic BioPharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: KRBP): (i) pursuant and/or traceable to the offering documents issued in connection with the Company's initial public offering conducted on or about July 2, 2021 (the "IPO"); and/or (ii) between June 25, 2021 and August 13, 2021, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important October 4, 2022 lead plaintiff deadline.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Kiromic BioPharma securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Kiromic BioPharma class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=8051 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than October 4, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, the IPO documents failed to disclose that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") had, prior to the filing of the IPO documents, imposed a clinical hold, and in fact, contained statements indicating that it had not. Given that the IPO closed on July 2, 2021, more than thirty (30) days after Kiromic BioPharma submitted the Investigational New Drug ("IND") applications for its two immunotherapy product candidates, investors were assured that no clinical hold had been issued and clinical trials would commence.
Kiromic BioPharma, however, received communications from the FDA on June 16 and 17, 2021, informing it that the FDA was placing the IND applications for its two candidate products on clinical hold. The IPO documents failed to disclose this information, instead representing that clinical testing was expected to proceed in the third quarter of 2021. Clinical testing did not proceed in the third quarter of 2021, nor was it likely given the FDA's imposition of a clinical hold. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
To join the Kiromic BioPharma class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=8051 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.
No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

11 New Songs Out Today
So many artists, so many songs, so little time. Each week we review a handful of new albums (of all genres), round up even more new music that we'd call "indie," and talk about what metal is coming out. We post music news, track premieres, and more all day. We update a playlist weekly of some of our current favorite tracks. Here's a daily roundup with a bunch of interesting, newly released songs in one place.
SPARTA - "UNTIL THE KINGDOM COMES"
Sparta's new self-titled album is out next month, and the latest single is "Until The Kingdom Comes," which Jim Ward says "began as an improv bass line in the late night jam with my friend David Garza at the hallowed grounds of Sonic Ranch many years ago- it would cycle through every now and then but never found a home until this record. I found the most sparse guitar worked and set up a bombastic chorus - all edges smoothed and improved by Jeff Goldsmith and his brilliant soundscape. This track definitely benefited from the isolation period of creativity."
--
BLADEE - "DRAIN STORY"
Swedish rapper and producer Bladee announced a new solo album, Spiderr, out September 30 via Year 0001, and shared the video for new single "Drain Story," which was directed by Ecco2k, also of Drain Gang.
--
A-TRAK & CAM'RON - "GHETTO PROPHETS" FT. CONWAY THE MACHINE
A-Trak and Cam'ron will release their collab album U Wasn't There on September 23 and they've just shared this track featuring Conway the Machine. "'Ghetto Prophets’ is Killa Cam at his most cold-hearted," says A-Track. "You can already hear Funk Flex’s bombs over this one.”
--
JÓNSI, SIN FANG, ALEX SOMERS, KJARTAN HOLM - 'SOUNDS OF FISCHER VOL. 1'
These ambient collaborations between Jónsi, Sin Fang, Alex Somers, and Kjartan Holm were originally released as a series of very limited edtiion 7" singles from 2018 - 2022 and have now been collected on this one compilation.
--
A-HA - “YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES”
Norwegian national treasures a-ha will release their 11th album (and first in seven years), True North, on October 21 and here's a very celestial song from it. “'Oh, this world, like a wounded bird…’ We live in increasingly confusing and volatile times, and there are things we often forget to express enough – to each other, to our children, our loved ones, our friends, and the generation growing up," says a-ha’s Magne Furoholmen. "If we want changes for the better, it starts with people who care enough to stand up for their ideals and for the rest of us to support them. I have great hope for the future when I see the courage and conviction of the young. They have it, and so do you. YOU have what it takes!”

NOGA EREZ - "NAILS" FT. MISSY ELLIOTT
Noga Erez has shared a new version of her single "Nails" featuring Missy Elliott. "Julie Greenwald at Atlantic is the one who put me on to Noga Erez," Missy says. "I remember when Julie reached out to me about this new signing, who was a fan of mine, and hearing how hyped and excited she was about her. She shared Noga’s ‘End of the Road’ video with me and I was like ‘oh, I like this!’ Noga owns her own lane and has a quirky style like me, so when they sent me ‘Nails’ I hopped on it. I remember listening back to it and reflecting on how both of our styles meshed perfectly! I am always happy to work with talented new artists who aren’t afraid to be uniquely themselves. Noga Erez is definitely one to keep an eye on!"

HOLY MOTORS - "SUPERSTAR" (BONNIE BRAMLETT & LEON RUSSELL COVER)
Estonian band Holy Motors have covered "Superstar," the song by Bonnie Bramlett and Leon Russell that was a 1971 hit for The Carpenters and has been covered by everyone from Luther Vandross to Sonic Youth. Holy Motors' version is both heavy and ethereal, with the dreamy guitar chords heavy on the whammy bar, and does a great job of reworking the chorus to make it fit with the very vibey arrangement.

The Green Bay Packers listed four offensive starters as questionable for Sunday night’s home opener against the Chicago Bears.
Left tackle David Bakhtiari (knee), right tackle Elgton Jenkins (knee), receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) and left guard Jon Runyan Jr. (concussion) were all listed as questionable for Week 2 on Friday’s final injury report.
Buy Packers TicketsBakhtiari and Jenkins missed Week 1 while recovering from previous knee injuries and surgeries. Lazard missed the opener after getting stepped on in practice. Runyan Jr. suffered a concussion in Week 1.
Bakhtiari practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday, missed Thursday and then returned in a limited capacity on Friday, matching the practice plan established by coach Matt LaFleur. If he can’t go, Yosh Nijman would get another start at left tackle.
The big news on Friday: Jenkins practiced in a full capacity for the first time this year. He now has a legitimate chance of playing for the first time since tearing his ACL in Week 11 of last season. If available, he’d be the likely starter at right tackle.
Lazard was limited during all three days of practice but is trending in the right direction. Runyan returned on Friday in a limited capacity after missing two straight days while going through the concussion protocol. He could still clear protocol in time to play Sunday.
Offensive lineman Jake Hanson, tight end Marcedes Lewis, cornerback Keisean Nixon and linebacker Quay Walker were removed from the injury report and will be available to play Sunday, barring a setback.

Ah, yet another loaded title!
However this isn't about political specifically, but about the Monarchy.
It is clear that the current Monarch isn't going to be around for much longer - and I wonder how such a seismic moment will affect Britain as an entity.
The up and coming Monarch is one who doesn't exactly agree with the present government's world view on a host of topics - and is unafraid to say those views aloud.
But I wonder whether such a moment will be the instigator - the moment for the four nations to go their own way, whether by choice, or whether by other means - and what that means.
I have wondered what would have happened if such a moment came 15 or 20 years ago, I don't believe that such a risk of splitting would be greater then, that it feels like it is now.
So, we're clear this is about the future of Britain, this isn't about the tribulations of the Monarchy, this is how Britain steps into the unknown, in plenty of different ways.
There seems to me a whole series of issues that are coming down the road for this country which have for one reason or another have been delayed for convenience over the past few years - starting with the elephant in the room. Brexit.
It really does feel that this is the first summer that it's coming home to people just what they were losing by voting for such a hard exit.
Then there is the Scotland and Irish questions which I believe are beginning to become more entangled than anyone thinks. I believe if one goes, the other will go soon after.
If the current Monarch is still around at this critical moment is vital, as I cannot help but fear for an organised English Nationalist group trying to stoke fear and hatred of the other - aside this time around they'd have politicians in Parliament on their side as well as the papers.
Imagine if the Queen goes in the midst of winter as power cuts ravage the country. It may be jolly on here and other certain places - but make no mistake - amongst a sizable part of the population there will be a collective form of grief possibly unparalleled in our lifetimes. How would that play out - especially if the same politicians are running the show at that moment?
