The semifinals of EuroBasket 2022 have concluded. Here’s what went down.
France blows out Poland, 95-54
Poland was effectively the Cinderella in this year’s EuroBasket. With no active NBA players on the roster, a semifinals berth is nothing short of really, really great. But France, one of the world powers, led throughout the entire game, except right in the starting minutes. Guerschon Yabusele led Les Bleus with 22 points, and made 4-of-6 three poitners. France also shot 15-of-26 from the three-point line, kind of like the Wizards’ defense on a semi-regular basis.
(OKAY, THAT WAS HARSH!)
No Polish players scored in double figures. Given that Marcin Gortat played for the Wizards for several years recently, I was certainly rooting for them to go far in this tournament!
Spain edges out Germany, 96-91
It was a battle of the point guards between Germany’s Dennis Schroder and Spain’s Lorenzo Brown. Schroder scored 30 points and dished 8 assists while Brown had 29 points and 6 assists. But ultimately, the Spanish came out with the win in a game that featured 11 lead changes between one of Europe’s powers in Spain and the German hosts, who generally haven’t had a strong men’s basketball team.
With Spain going to the Finals, that may put a roster controversy to rest about Brown specifically. Brown plays for Maccabi Tel Aviv in Israel and had no Spanish ties previously, whether as a player during his professional career or by ancestry, yet the government decided to give him citizenship anyway.
It’s rare for Spain and other western European countries (which are wealthier) to fast-track citizenship. It does happen from time to time though. The Netherlands gave Máxima Zorreguieta Dutch citizenship by royal decree in 2001 so her fiancé, Prince (now King) Willem-Alexander could remain first in line for the throne. And in 2018, French President Emmanuel Macron helped fast-track the citizenship for Mamoudou Gassama, a Malian immigrant, after saving a young boy hanging from a balcony.
Brown was previously an American citizen.
Regardless of where you stand on the controversy, Brown has filled the void Ricky Rubio left due to his ACL injury last year while playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers. And perhaps it could help the Spanish beat their northern rivals.
Final day!
The last day of EuroBasket is tomorrow. Here is the schedule. Games can be seen on ESPN Plus.
- Bronze Medal Match: Germany vs. Poland at 11:15 a.m. ET
- Gold Medal Match: Spain vs. France at 2:30 p.m. ET

Jack Grealish and Son Heung-min, two of the English Premier League's most high-profile players, have been facing growing criticism for their failure to score this season.
They silenced the doubters on Saturday.
With a strike after 55 seconds, Grealish — the England international with the 100 million pound ($139 million) price tag — set Manchester City on its way to a 3-0 win at Wolverhampton and first place in the standings, at least for 24 hours.
With a hat trick after coming off the bench, Son — the joint-top scorer in the league last season — rounded off Tottenham's 6-2 victory over last-placed Leicester, whose manager Brendan Rodgers will head into the international break with his job under serious threat after six straight league defeats.
The wins left City and Tottenham tied for points in first and second place, respectively, and their managers thrilled to see their forwards scoring again.
“Rightly so, people have been asking questions — I should be scoring more and getting more assists," said Grealish, who hadn't even set up a goal this season.
“I am always going to have people talking about me with the money that was spent on me, but all my career I haven’t scored enough goals. I do want to add that to my game."
Naturally, Erling Haaland was one of City's other scorers at Molineux — that's 14 in nine games in all competitions since joining from Borussia Dortmund — along with Phil Foden, with Wolves playing with only 10 men from the 33rd minute after Nathan Collins' red card for a chest-high lunge on Grealish.
City has 23 goals in its seven games so far.
Son was rotated — or was he dropped? — by Tottenham manager Antonio Conte for the Leicester game and the South Korea forward looked emotional after each of his goals having gone on as a 59th-minute substitute. Two of them were curling shots into the top corner and his hat trick goal squirmed under beleaguered Leicester goalkeeper Danny Ward, before needing the say-so of a VAR review.
“The way I play, I can do much better than I have been,” Son said. “I have been disappointed, the team has been doing really, really good but I was disappointed with my performances.”
Harry Kane, Eric Dier and Rodrigo Bentancur also scored for Tottenham, while Youri Tielemans — with a twice-taken penalty — and James Maddison scored for Leicester.
Rodgers said the pressure was “very much” on him.
“I understand the game,” he said. "The scoreline didn’t reflect the game but the bottom line is it’s a heavy defeat. They (the owners) have given me brilliant support. Whatever happens to me at Leicester, whether I stay and fight on, I’ll always respect them.”
NEWCASTLE FLAT-LINING
It's no wins in six games for Newcastle, whose manager Eddie Howe will understand the pressure that comes with coaching the soccer team with the world's richest owners. How patient will the club's Saudi leadership be?
After a disappointing 1-1 draw with Bournemouth at St. James' Park, Newcastle remained without a win in the league since beating Nottingham Forest at home on the opening weekend. Five of Newcastle's six results have been draws.
There were some jeers from Newcastle supporters at the fulltime whistle after Bournemouth held out for a point in a disciplined defensive performance, which saw the visitors take the lead against the run of play through Philip Billing in the 62nd.
Newcastle, which hit the post through Kieran Trippier and Joelinton by that point, equalized five minutes later when Alexander Isak converted a penalty awarded for a handball against Jefferson Lerma.
Bournemouth continued its upturn in results since firing Scott Parker after a 9-0 loss at Liverpool at the end of August. In three games since under caretaker manager Gary O’Neil, the south-coast team has two draws and a win at Nottingham Forest.
TRIBUTES TO QUEEN
There were more tributes to Queen Elizabeth II before and during Saturday's games, including a pre-match minute's silence and a period of applause after the 70th minute — marking the 70 years she was on the throne.
All players wore black armbands as a mark of respect for the queen, who died last week. Her funeral is in London on Monday.

Pogba steps out as Ali G for son’s birthday
BOOYAKASHA! Footballer Paul Pogba is Indahouse at a kids’ trampoline party — looking like Ali G.
The ex-Manchester United star, 29, wore a bright yellow tracksuit with red trim just like Sacha Baron Cohen’s comedy character.
The French World Cup winner was joined by his model wife Maria Zulay Salaues, 28 — dressed as Batwoman — as they celebrated their son’s birthday in Turin, Italy.
Juventus team-mates Angel Di Maria, 34, Juan Cuadrado, 34, and Alex Sandro, 31, were also there.
It comes as we reported the ace could be in line for a call-up to France's World Cup squad even if he's not match-fit.
Pogba, 29, suffered a serious knee injury in training over the summer, throwing his World Cup hopes into doubt.
The former Manchester United star could make a return to action for his club side by November 10th, just ten days before the tournament starts.
And despite his relative lack of game time, France coach Didier Deschamps could still call up the midfielder.

Jennifer Lopez, 53, looks gorgeous in her latest Instagram video! The singer, who married Ben Affleck in July, filmed an epic “Just Married” robe hanging on her bathroom door as she relaxed in a bathtub, in the throwback clip, which was posted to her JLoBeauty page. The feature took place in Paris, France, where she and her new husband went on their honeymoon over the summer.
The beauty had her hair pulled up and wore earrings and a bracelet as she held up her phone in the mirror. She had on elbow leaning on top of the black and white marble of the tub and looked confident and happy. “Self care in Paris is always a good idea 🤍✨#tbt,” she wrote in the caption for the post, which was shared on Sept. 15.
Once she shared the content, her fans quickly complimented it. “Beautiful as always,” one fan wrote while another called her a “cute newlywed.” A third gushed over how “happy” they were for her, and many more left her heart emojis. Others talked about how important “self care” is and praised her for doing it.
Jennifer’s latest JLoBeauty video comes after she made headlines for bonding with one of her new stepdaughters, Ben’s oldest daughter, Violet, 16. The two were seen on a shopping trip in Beverly Hills, CA and looked content as they walked side by side and engaged in conversation outside the shops. At one point, they also enjoyed lunch together in the ritzy area, seemingly proving their connection is growing strong.
In addition to Violet, Jennifer is also the stepmom to Ben’s other two kids, including Seraphina, 13, and Samuel, 10, who he shares with ex Jennifer Garner. All three kids as well as her own 14-year-old twins, Emme and Max, have been seen out and about with the newly married couple on a regular basis, including during their honeymoon. The blended family seem to be fitting in nicely together and getting on without a hitch.

Dismal Bath beaten by 14-man Sale Sharks
Bath Rugby 20 Sale Sharks 37
The first 40 minutes of the new season was a dire case of deja vu for the long suffering Bath fans. Sale were so superior it was embarrassing. It didn’t take the visitors long to score the opening try with the impressive new signing from Exeter, Tom O’Flaherty, finishing off a forwards drive after some slick handling by Sale’s back line.
Seven points behind after four minutes, Piers Francis missed a kick from in front of the posts but Bath received a break as Nick Schonert was red-carded for a head on head tackle on Dave Attwood. Accidental it may have been, but the game is intent on eradicating these technically terrible tackles, even if the reality is that the punishment far outweighed the crime.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — The Buffalo Bills secondary received good news on Saturday as cornerback Dane Jackson returned to the practice field after sitting out the last two days.
After practice on Saturday, 2 On Your Side's Brian Chojnacki caught up with Jackson. Barring any setbacks, he seems he will be ready to go Monday night when the Bills host the Tennessee Titans on Monday Night Football.
Chojnacki asked Jackson, do you feel where you are at right now that you will be ready for Monday?"
"For sure, yeah, for sure." Jackson said. "I feel good, being our there today and getting to move around, it felt good being out there."
Jackson added he had just a little tweak after falling to the ground during practice earlier this week.
Bills coach Sean McDermott said despite missing back to back practices, if Jackson is ready to go, he expects him to perform at a high level.
"He is a very conscience young man, he is a pro in the way he prepares he is as tough as they are out there, if he goes he will be ready to go." said McDermott.
One other note from practice today, Ed Oliver did not practice. He is trending toward not be available for Monday's game.
McDermott said Tim Settle would not practice but he did after all. His status for Monday is still unknown as well.
You can watch the Bills' Week 2 matchup with Tennessee Titans on NBC and Channel 2 with coverage beginning at 6:30 p.m. from Highmark Stadium.

- Started on bench against the Foxes
- Replaced Richarlison after an hour
- Hat-trick included two stunning efforts
WHAT HAPPENED? Son has come under significant pressure in the early stages of the season. His lack of contributions in attack led to Antonio Conte dropping him for the visit of Leicester but the South Korean forward made quite the impact after coming off the bench.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Son's performance from the bench gives Conte a decision to make. After the international break, it's hard to imagine the hat-trick hero will be kept on the bench.
WHAT NEXT FOR SON? The football calendar throws up an international break and Son will be one of the players representing his country over the next couple of weeks. Upon his return, he will be hoping to play a starring role as his side have 13 more games until the break for the World Cup.

For the fifth match in a row, Barcelona achieved another victory in the domestic competition by defeating Elche 3-0 at the Camp Nou.
The remnants of the defeat against Bayern Munich did not burden the team that lined up with Memphis Depay as an offensive type in the offensive trident led by Robert Lewandowski.
Before Azulgrana stormed the Elche goal, footballer Gonzalo Verde received a red card in the 14th minute, leaving his visiting team at the Camp Nou with ten men.
Barcelona’s continued presence had an impact with two goals at the end of the first half. Lewandowski hit first, who was determined only after a cross by Baldi in the 34th minute.
You can watch: Batakazu: Bayern Munich stumbles against Augsburg and adds its fourth game without winning the German League
Later, near the end, the Memphis Depay knocked out a genius by dancing with his back to the Elche defender and thus his shot over the Elche goal. Barcelona comfortably won 2-0.
In the second stage, the Polish striker set final figures for the Barcelona 3-0 final, who was the temporary leader in La Liga.
The Blaugrana added 16 units in the absence of what Real Madrid does when it visits the Wanda Metropolitano in the Madrid derby tomorrow, Sunday.

BEIRUT (AP) — An Israeli strike on the Damascus International Airport and nearby military posts south of the Syrian capital killed five soldiers, state media reported Saturday.
State news agency SANA, quoting an unnamed military official, said the strikes happened after midnight Friday, causing “material losses” as well. It added that some of the Israeli missiles were shot down before reaching their targets.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor, said the strikes killed five Syrian soldiers and two members of Iran-backed groups.
The Israeli army declined comment, saying it does not react to “foreign reports.”
The strike on the Damascus International Airport came 10 days after Israel launched a missile attack Syria’s Aleppo airport in the north that put it out of commission for a few days. It was the second attack on Aleppo’s airport within a week.
On June 10, Israeli airstrikes on Damascus International Airport caused significant damage to infrastructure and runways and rendered the main runway unserviceable. The airport opened two weeks later following renovation work.
Israel has carried out hundreds of strikes on targets inside government-controlled parts of Syria in recent years, but rarely acknowledges or discusses such operations.
Israel has acknowledged, however, that it targets bases of Iran-allied militant groups, such as Lebanon’s Hezbollah, which has sent thousands of fighters to support Syrian President Bashar Assad’s forces.
The Israeli strikes comes amid a wider shadow war between the country and Iran. The attacks on the airports in Damascus and Aleppo are over fears it was being used to funnel Iranian weaponry into the country.

NEW YORK — "The Phantom of the Opera" — Broadway's longest-running show — is scheduled to close in February 2023, the biggest victim yet of the post-pandemic softening in theater attendance in New York.
The musical — a fixture on Broadway since 1988, weathering recessions, war and cultural shifts — will play its final performance on Broadway on Feb. 18, a spokesperson told The Associated Press on Friday. The closing will come less than a month after its 35th anniversary.
It is a costly musical to sustain, with elaborate sets and costumes as well as a large cast and orchestra. Box office grosses have fluctuated since the show reopened after the pandemic — going as high as over $1 million a week but also dropping to around $850,000. Last week, it hit $867,997 and producers may have seen the writing on the wall.
Based on a novel by Gaston Leroux, "Phantom" tells the story of a deformed composer who haunts the Paris Opera House and falls madly in love with an innocent young soprano, Christine. Andrew Lloyd Webber's lavish songs include "Masquerade," ″Angel of Music," ″All I Ask of You" and "The Music of the Night."
The first production opened in London in 1986 and since then the show has been seen by more than 145 million people in 183 cities and performed in 17 languages over 70,000 performances. On Broadway alone, the musical has played more than 13,500 performances to 19 million people at The Majestic Theatre.
The closing of "Phantom" would mean the longest running show crown would go to "Chicago," which started in 1996. "The Lion King" is next, having begun performances in 1997.
Broadway took a pounding during the pandemic, with all theaters closed for more than 18 months. Breaking even usually requires a steady stream of tourists, especially to "Phantom."
The closure was first reported Friday by the New York Post.

LAS VEGAS, Sept. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®), the U.S. Concealed Carry Association (USSCA), the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and Bass Pro Shops distributed firearm safety and suicide prevention resources, including free gun locks, at a special Fall Outdoor Sports and Firearm Safety Event today to help prevent firearm accidents, thefts and misuse, and to bolster suicide prevention efforts across the city.
"Secure storage is the number one way to help prevent unauthorized access to firearms," said Joe Bartozzi, President and CEO of NSSF, The Firearm Industry Trade Association. "Since September is also Suicide Prevention Month, this is a great opportunity to talk about preventing access by at-risk individuals. We are grateful to USSCA, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, Bass Pro Shops and all our local partners for joining us in this effort to save lives."
NSSF has provided resources to support the local effort through its nationwide Project ChildSafe® initiative. Project ChildSafe encourages gun owners to secure their firearms when they're not in use with a gun lock, lock box or other device, to store ammunition separately, and to talk with their kids about gun safety. The program has also partnered with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department to make thousands of free gun locks available to residents.
"These locks and materials are available to everyone – no questions asked," said Sheriff Joseph Lombardo of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. "We want to encourage anyone who has a gun in their home to take the steps to store it securely and responsibly when not in use. It really can make our community safer and help save lives."
To support suicide prevention efforts, the local effort also offers a free resource for parents focused on teen mental health and firearm storage, developed through a partnership between NSSF and the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
Today's event was organized largely by representatives of USCCA, as part of a larger "Project ChildSafe Las Vegas" community campaign, with support from several local vendors, including Homeland Personal Protection, At the Ready, The Gun Store, Sheepdog Armory, Las Vegas Office of Suicide Prevention, Clark County Fire Department, Intermountain Healthcare, Movinque BBQ and Kona Ice.
"When it comes to our children and people in our homes, we want to prevent any type of firearm, especially those that are loaded, from being accessible, stolen or misused. If these firearms are left unsecured and available, that's a tragedy waiting to happen, and it's so easily preventable," said Paul Martinez with USCCA.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department asked a federal appeals court Friday to lift a judge’s order that temporarily barred it from reviewing a batch of classified documents seized during an FBI search of former President Donald Trump’s Florida home last month.
The department told the 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in Atlanta that the judge’s hold, imposed last week, had impeded the “government’s efforts to protect the nation’s security” and interfered with its investigation into the presence of top-secret information at Mar-a-Lago. It asked the court to remove that order so work could resume, and to halt a judge’s directive forcing the department to provide the seized classified documents to an independent arbiter for his review.
“The government and the public would suffer irreparable harm absent a stay” of the order, department lawyers wrote in their brief to the appeals court.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon’s appointment of a so-called special master to review the documents, and the resulting legal tussle it has caused, appear certain to slow by weeks the department’s investigation into the holding of classified documents at the Florida property after Trump left office. The Justice Department has been investigating possible violations of multiple statutes, including under the Espionage Act, but it remains unclear whether Trump — who has been laying the groundwork for a potential presidential run — or anyone else might be charged.
The FBI says it took about 11,000 documents, including roughly 100 with classification markings found in a storage room and an office, while serving a court-authorized search warrant at the home on Aug. 8. Weeks after the search, Trump lawyers asked a judge to appoint a special master to conduct an independent review of the records.
Cannon granted the request last week, assigning a special master to review the records and weed out any that may be covered by claims of attorney-client or executive privilege. She directed the department to halt its use of the classified documents for investigative purposes until further court order, or until the completion of the special master’s work.
On Thursday night, she assigned Raymond Dearie, the former chief judge of the federal court based in Brooklyn, to serve in the role. She also declined to lift her earlier order, citing ongoing disputes about the nature of the documents that she said merited a neutral review by an outside arbiter.
“The Court does not find it appropriate to accept the Government’s conclusions on these important and disputed issues without further review by a neutral third party in an expedited and orderly fashion,” she wrote.
The Justice Department on Friday night told the appeals court that Cannon’s injunction “unduly interferes with the criminal investigation,” prohibiting investigators from “accessing the seized records to evaluate whether charges are appropriate.” It also prevents the FBI from using the seized records in its criminal investigation to determine which documents, if any, were disclosed and to whom, the department said.
Though Cannon has said investigators are free to do other investigative work that did not involve a review of the documents, the department said Friday that that was largely impractical. Noting the discovery of dozens of empty folders at Mar-a-Lago marked classified, it said the judge’s hold appeared to bar it from “further reviewing the records to discern any patterns in the types of records that were retained, which could lead to identification of other records still missing.”
The department also asked the appeals court to reject Cannon’s order that it provide the newly appointed special master with the classified documents, suggesting there was no reason for the arbiter to review highly sensitive records that did not involve questions of legal privilege.
“Plaintiff has no claim for the return of those records, which belong to the government and were seized in a court-authorized search,” department lawyers wrote. “The records are not subject to any possible claim of personal attorney-client privilege. And neither Plaintiff nor the court has cited any authority suggesting that a former President could successfully invoke executive privilege to prevent the Executive Branch from reviewing its own records.”
Cannon has directed Dearie to complete his work by Nov. 30 and to prioritize the review of the classified documents. She directed the Justice Department to permit the Trump legal team to inspect the seized classified records with “controlled access conditions” — something government lawyers said Friday was needless and harmful.
On Friday, Dearie, a former federal prosecutor, scheduled a preliminary conference with Trump lawyers and Justice Department lawyers for Tuesday afternoon.

The Hallmark Channel’s newest “Fall Into Love” movie, “Wedding of a Lifetime,” premieres on Saturday, September 17, at 8 p.m. Eastern/7 p.m. Central. The movie stars Brooke D’Orsay and Jonathan Bennett.
‘Wedding of a Lifetime ‘Was Filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia
“Wedding of a Lifetime” was filmed in the Vancouver, British Columbia, region of Canada, Vancouver Sun reported. According to the report, the movie was filmed in early July.
Much of the cast, including Robyn Bradley, is from Vancouver, and the movie’s production company is also from Burnaby, British Columbia. This area is a popular filming location for many Hallmark movies.
The casting was overseen by Jackie Lind, who is also from Vancouver.
Jonathan Bennett shared this behind-the-scenes photoshoot below. How awkward is this and so perfect at the same time! This film has a unique premise compared to many others in the Hallmark franchise.
Meet the Cast
The synopsis from Crown Media reads: “Darby (D’Orsay) and Jake (Bennett) are an engaged couple who have been together since their days as high school sweethearts in their close-knit mountain town. Over the years they have found themselves in a rut and out of love. As Darby and Jake prepare to break the news of their separation to their families, they inadvertently find themselves entered in a ‘romantic relationship competition’ hosted by a popular national daytime TV show after being nominated by the whole town. The grand prize is a televised, all-expenses-paid ‘Wedding of a Lifetime!’ Though Darby and Jake are uncomfortable pretending they are still engaged, they decide to continue with the show. Neither of them wants to disappoint their family and friends, and being on the show could potentially give both their careers a boost. Will the charade end with Darby and Jake coming clean and going their separate ways, or will the competition rekindle their romance?”
Jonathan Bennett plays Jake. According to his bio, he made his debut in the feature film industry with the mega-hit “Mean Girls.” Bennett starred in the film with Lindsay Lohan.
Bennet lives in Los Angeles with husband, Jaymes Vaughan, and their dog Bradley. They were the first homosexual couple to appear on the cover of The Knot.
In an interview with Deadline, Bennett said, “I love working with Hallmark and am grateful to expand our work together as an executive producer on this project. While it’s always fun to act in these movies, it has been a very different and rewarding experience to work on the filmmaking side and to collaborate with such talented people behind the scenes to bring it to life. I’m so proud of this story and hope the fans love it as much as I do.”
He added: “Working on this movie was so much fun because I didn’t only get to act in it, I also got to executive produce it, which was an absolute blast.”
On this quick quiz posted on Instagram, he quickly responded “Ohio” when asked what his favorite place to visit during the fall season is. It certainly is a beautiful place. But might be a little biased, being originally from that state!
The filming of the movie seemed like it was a lot of fun, including getting paid to battle in suds on a gorgeous day, as he shared in the video below.
He also shared some of his outfits for the movie.
In this next post, Bennett shared that he’s proud to be able to tell these stories with Hallmark.
“Day 10 of filming, who’s ready for the weekend?” he said in another post with D’Orsay.
He was very happy about sharing this selfie of the new characters for this movie.
Brooke D’Orsay plays Darby. She recently appeared as a lead actor in Hallmark’s “A Dickens of a Holiday!” and “A Godwink Christmas: Second Chance, First Love” for Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. According to her bio, she previously starred in the original series “Royal Pains,” which aired on USA Network, and had a recurring role on Netflix’s “Grace and Frankie.”
Her role as the bereaved diva Deb Dobkins in the comedy-drama series “Drop Dead Diva” on Lifetime is another reason why many of her fans are familiar with her.
Before posting about her new movie, she shared a post in 2021 about her “Dickens of a Holiday” movie. But she tends to be more private online, with only six Instagram posts and more than 34,000 followers.
Also starring in the movie are:
- David Kaye
- Mark Brandon
- Barry W. Levy
- Robyn Bradley
- Bailee Reid
- Jamall Johnson

Russia says Germany 'crossed' red line in arms supply to Ukraine
Russia's ambassador to Germany Sergey Nechayev told state-owned media on Friday that Germany had "crossed" a red line by proving arms to Ukraine.

How does Russia's war with Ukraine end
Only a few months after the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Gen.

This claim, made without evidence, could well be a ploy for Russian escalation.

Ukraine Pulled Off a Masterstroke
What happens on the battlefield is rarely the thing that decides a war. Normally, the preparations beforehand determine what happens when the fighting begins—and these preparations are what settle the outcome of the war itself. This truth is playing out along the roads and in the towns of Kharkiv Oblast, the province that includes Ukraine’s second-largest city. The stunningly swift advance of Ukrainian forces, which started around September 1 and sped up soon after, has easily been the most dramatic—and for Ukraine and its supporters, the most uplifting—episode of the war since the current Russian invasion began on February 24. In a few days the Ukrainians liberated about as much territory as Russia had captured in a few months, while causing the disintegration of Russian forces around Izium, Kupyansk, and other logistically vital cities. From the outside, Ukraine appears to have changed the whole complexion of the war.
Ukraine's offensive in the east surprised Russia — and it may be a turning point in the war

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A 33-year-old man who was shot and wounded Friday by Indianapolis police is a suspect in a shooting hours earlier that left a woman dead outside a day care center, police said.
The man, who was struck at least once after two officers discharged their weapons Friday afternoon, was in stable condition at a hospital, police said.
The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said in a statement Friday evening that the man was being held without bond on two warrants related to prior domestic violence cases.
He had not been charged in the woman's fatal shooting as of Saturday afternoon, but police said they were working with the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office to file murder and other charges against him in that killing.
Police said that based on preliminary information, investigators believe the woman's killing in the parking lot of a day care center on the city’s near west side was domestic-related.
The man was shot about three hours after the woman's killing as officers investigated reports of a vehicle near downtown Indianapolis matching a vehicle seen at the day care center.
Officer Samone Burris said officers saw the man holding a rifle and told him to drop the weapon. She said what happened next remains under investigation but two officers fired their weapons.
Those officers have been placed on administrative leave, which is a routine step following officer-involved shootings.

Chris Kamara thanks Middlesbrough fans for their support
Chris Kamara has thanked Middlesbrough fans for showing their support for the TV presenter during Saturday night’s home game against Rotherham.
Middlesbrough-born Kamara, 64, who left Sky Sports at the end of last season, is battling apraxia of speech and this week revealed he felt “a fraud” as a broadcaster.
Boro fans unfurled a banner during the Sky Bet Championship fixture, which read: “You’re not a fraud, you’re unbelievable Kammy.”
The former Portsmouth, Swindon and Leeds midfielder responded on social media, saying on Twitter: “Wow that is ‘Unbelievable Jeff’. Thank You”.
‘Unbelievable Jeff’ became one of Kamara’s hugely popular catchphrases during his work as a Sky Sports reporter as he described match action to Soccer Saturday presenter Jeff Stelling.
Kamara told Steven Bartlett’s Diary of a CEO podcast this week that he considered quitting all television work at the end of last season, but after being persuaded to continue, he was “doubly busy than what I was before”.
When asked how life was for him at the moment, Kamara said on the podcast: “Strange in terms of I feel a fraud now in terms of broadcasting – I don’t bring to the table what I used to. So that’s hard.
“I feel I’m doing these programmes and they’re not getting the best of me, butthey’re tolerating me. That’s how it feels.
“My life away from the screen couldn’t be any better – grandkids, family, it’sperfect.”

More frustration for Middlesbrough as they are held by Rotherham
Middlesbrough and Rotherham played out an uneventful 0-0 draw at the Riverside Stadium in the Sky Bet Championship’s evening kick-off.
The stalemate means Boro will go into the international break in the relegation zone after just two wins from their opening 10 games of the season whilst the newly promoted Millers sit just outside the play-off places in eighth.
After an uneventful opening 15 minutes, Duncan Watmore was handed the game’s first meaningful chance when Millers captain Richard Wood fluffed his clearance inside the box – but the forward could only sidefoot his half-volley over the bar.
Watmore was again at the heart of the action after his run beat two defenders in the box but his cutback to Isaiah Jones saw the wing-back find the sidenetting.
Rotherham hit back just after the half hour mark as Conor Washington’s shot on the spin was heading wide but Jones was on hand to turn the ball behind for a corner to prevent a visiting player prodding it home.
Rodrigo Muniz ended the half with a shot from the edge of the box that deflected wide of the right-hand post.
In the early stages of the second half, Watmore came within inches of putting the home side in front.
After his first touch from Muniz’s high flick-on took the ball around goalkeeper Viktor Johansson, Watmore could only divert the ball off the inside of the post as two Rotherham defenders watched the ball roll across the goalline and out the other side.
Paul Warne’s side continued to sit off Boro as the home side pushed for the first goal of the game. A slick passing move saw Riley McGree free the run of Watmore in the box but Wood slid across in the nick of time to deflect the ball behind.
On 70 minutes, both sets of supporters observed a minute’s applause for the Queen as a mark of respect for her 70 years as the nation’s reigning monarch.
Both sides made triple substitutions with 10 minutes remaining but for different reasons. The Millers looked to preserve a point whilst Boro were pushing for all three.
Matt Crooks latched onto a flick-on in the box and was caught by keeper Johansson in the head – but his header bounced over the bar before the linesman spared his blushes.
The full-time whistle blew to the tune of boos from the home crowd to a side that were largely expected to be promotion contenders this season, while the small following of Millers fans cheered their side off the pitch after a strong start to the campaign which has seen them lose just once.

The floods — caused by record monsoon rains and dubbed by one minister as “the
worst humanitarian disaster in a decade” — have impacted 16 million children in total, UNICEF’s Pakistan Representative Abdullah Fadil said following his visit this week to the country’s southern Sindh Province.
That estimate came as the country’s National Disaster Management Authority updated the death toll from the floods since mid-June to 1,545 people, 552 of them children.
Meanwhile, officials in the country warn that toll is likely to rise as deaths are being under reported and diseases like dengue fever are on the rise.
Azra Pechuho, health minister for the southern Sindh Province — one of the hardest hit areas where many schools and other facilities remain shut, said there was now a “state of emergency” caused by the vast amount of standing water, which provides the perfect breeding conditions for Aedes mosquitoes to spread the dengue virus.
UNICEF’s Fadil said the situation on the ground in Sindh was “beyond bleak” with many malnourished children battling diseases like diarrhea, malaria and
dengue fever, as well as painful skin conditions.
“Girls and boys in Pakistan are paying the price for a climate disaster not of their making,” Fadil said.
“Young children are living out in the open with their families with no drinking water, no food and no livelihood — exposed to a wide range of new flood related risks and hazards,” Fadil said. Mothers, many exhausted, anemic and malnourished, were also unable to breastfeed their babies.
“Vital infrastructure … has been destroyed and damaged, including thousands of schools, water systems and health facilities,” he added.

KYIV, Ukraine — Pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin mounted on the battlefield and in the halls of global power as Ukrainian troops pushed their counteroffensive Saturday to advance farther into Ukraine's partly recaptured northeast.
At a high-level summit in Uzbekistan, Putin vowed to press his attack on Ukraine despite recent military setbacks but also faced concerns by India and China over the drawn-out conflict.
“I know that today’s era is not of war,” Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi told the Russian leader in televised comments as the two met Friday in Uzbekistan.
“Today the biggest concerns facing the world and especially the developing countries are the problems of food security, fuel security, fertilizers; and we must find some way out and you too must contribute to that,” Modi stressed.
At the same summit a day earlier, Putin acknowledged China's unspecified “questions and concerns” about the war in Ukraine while also thanking Chinese President Xi Jinping for his government’s “balanced position” on the conflict.
The hurried retreat of Russian troops this month from parts of a northeast region they occupied early in the war, together with the rare public reservations expressed by key allies, underscored the challenges that Putin faces on all fronts. Both China and India have maintained strong ties with Russia and had sought to remain neutral on Ukraine.
Xi, in a statement, expressed support for Russia’s “core interests” but also wanted to work together to “inject stability” into world affairs. Modi said he wanted to discuss “how we can move forward on the path of peace.”
On the battlefield, Western defense officials and analysts said Saturday that Russian forces were apparently setting up a new defensive line in Ukraine's northeast after Kyiv's troops broke through the previous one.
The British Defense Ministry said the new front line likely is between the Oskil River and Svatove, 90 miles southeast of Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city.
The new line emerged after the Ukrainian counteroffensive punched a hole through the war's previous front line, allowing Kyiv's soldiers to recapture large swaths of land in the northeastern Kharkiv region that borders Russia.
After the Russian troops retreated from the city of Izium, Ukrainian authorities discovered a mass grave site, one of the largest so far discovered. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says more than 440 graves have been found at the site but that the number of victims is not yet known.
Zelenskyy said the graves contained the bodies of hundreds of civilian adults and children, as well as soldiers, and some had been tortured, shot or killed by artillery shelling. He cited evidence of atrocities, such as a body with a rope around its neck and broken arms.
Ukrainian forces, in the meantime, are crossing the Oskil River in the Kharkiv region and have place artillery there, the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War said Saturday. The river, which flows south from Russia into Ukraine, had been a natural break in the newly emerged front lines since Ukraine launched its counteroffensive about a week ago.
“Russian forces are likely too weak to prevent further Ukrainian advances along the entire Oskil River,” the institute said.
Videos circulating online Saturday indicated that Ukrainian forces were continuing to retake land from Russian forces in the country's embattled east, although their veracity could not be independently verified.
One video showed a Ukrainian soldier walking past a damaged building then pointing at a colleague hanging the blue-and-yellow Ukrainian flag over a mobile phone tower. The soldier identified the seized village as Dibrova, just northeast of the city of Sloviansk in Ukraine’s Donetsk region.
Another video showed two Ukrainian soldiers in what appeared to be a bell tower, with one saying they had retaken the village of Shchurove, just northeast of Sloviansk.
The Ukrainian military and the Russians did not immediately comment on the two villages.
Elsewhere in Ukraine, Russian forces kept pounding cities and villages with deadly missile strikes and shelling.
A Russian missile attack early Saturday started a fire in Kharkiv's industrial area, said Oleh Syniehubov, the regional governor. Firefighters extinguished the blaze.
Syniehubov said remnants suggested the Russians fired S-300 surface-to-air missiles at the city. The S-300 is designed for striking missiles or aircraft in the sky, not targets on the ground. Analysts say Russia’s use of the missiles suggest they may be running out of some precision munitions.
Shelling of the nearby city of Chuhuiv later Saturday killed an 11-year-old girl, Syniehubov reported.
In the southern Zaporizhzhia region, a large part of which is occupied by the Russians, one person was wounded after the Russian forces shelled the city of Orikhiv, the region's Ukrainian governor Oleksandr Starukh reported on Telegram. He said Russian troops also shelled two villages in the region, destroying several civilian facilities.
Explosions were also reported Saturday in Russian-occupied parts of Zaporizhzhia. Russian-installed official Vladimir Rogov said on Telegram that at least five blasts were heard in the city of Melitopol. The city's Ukrainian mayor, Ivan Fedorov, said the explosions took place in a village south of the city, where the Russian troops had relocated some military equipment.
Ukraine's central Dnipropetrovsk region also came under Russian fire overnight, according to its governor, Valentyn Reznichenko. “The enemy attacked six times and launched more than 90 deadly projectiles on peaceful cities and villages,” he said.
Meanwhile, Ukraine’s atomic energy operator, Energoatom, said a convoy of 25 trucks has brought diesel fuel and other critical supplies to the endangered Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant — Europe's largest, which was shut down a week ago amid fears that fighting near it could result in a radiation disaster.
The trucks were allowed through Russian checkpoints on Friday to deliver spare parts for repairs of damaged power lines, chemicals for the operation of the plant and additional fuel for backup diesel generators, Energoatom said.
The six-reactor plant was captured by Russian forces in March but is still operated by Ukrainian engineers. Its last reactor was switched off Sunday after repeated power failures due to shelling put crucial safety systems at risk.
The International Atomic Energy Agency reported Saturday that one of the nuclear plant’s four main external power lines had now been repaired. The plant had been relying on three back-up power lines, and before that on power generated by one of its own reactors, which has since been shut down.
The Russian military on Saturday accused Ukraine of renewed artillery shelling of the power plant. Ukrainian authorities did not immediately address the claim.
In Russia, one person was killed and two others wounded Saturday by Ukrainian shelling, according to Vyacheslav Gladkov, governor of the Russian border region of Belgorod. The claim could not be verified.

(NerdWallet) – Beth Bourdon, an assistant public defender at the Orange County Public Defender’s Office in Orlando, Florida, was used to her student loans not qualifying for relief that other federal loans did.
She had Family Federal Education Loan Program, or FFEL, loans. They’re an older type of federal student loan that may be owned by the federal government or a private company. This type of loan generally doesn’t qualify for the benefits that come with federal direct loans. Those benefits include income-driven repayment, loan forgiveness or, most recently, the federal student loan payment pause.
“When everyone else’s student loan payments were paused for COVID, mine weren’t paused. I paid every month,” says Bourdon. “When everyone else’s interest rate dropped down to zero, mine didn’t drop down.”
She finally caught a break with the help of a temporary waiver for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. The waiver, which includes FFEL loans, counts past payments toward the total needed for debt discharge that otherwise would have been ineligible.
Through the waiver, Bourdon saw her remaining $57,000 in law school debt wiped away.
A debt discharge program with a dismal success rate
For years, most borrowers who applied for Public Service Loan Forgiveness were rejected. The approval rate since the program’s inception in 2007 hovered around 2.4%.
Full debt discharge requires 120 qualifying payments made while working full time for an eligible employer such as a public school, public hospital, qualified nonprofit or the government. But most borrowers had floundered, sometimes for years, in their attempts to advocate for payments to be counted toward forgiveness.
As a result of public criticism, the Biden administration made temporary changes to rectify some of the flaws in the program’s execution. Hence, the PSLF waiver, which offers borrowers the opportunity to receive credit for past payments that didn’t meet the program’s stringent rules. Since the waiver was implemented in October 2021, federal data shows PSLF approvals through June 2022 have climbed to nearly 10%.
A short window of forgiveness
Bourdon had about $75,000 in student loans, including $20,000 in undergraduate debt she used to attend the University of Central Florida. She’d already repaid her undergraduate debt when she learned about the PSLF waiver. That left only her law school debt — originally about $55,000 — which she had held since 2004 when she earned her Juris Doctor degree at Stetson University College of Law in Gulfport, Florida.
Bourdon says she posted on Twitter last fall about how she didn’t qualify for forgiveness due to the type of federal loans she carried. In response, she received a direct message about the waiver from a member of the Debt Collective, a membership-based debtors’ union and advocacy nonprofit. Finding out that she might see her debt erased prompted her to apply, though not without some apprehension.
“I was really scared that I was going to screw something up,” says Bourdon. “But I told myself ‘This is the only chance I have and it’s only an open window for a year.’ I didn’t know how long the process was going to take.”
She doesn’t recommend applying for PSLF while also working a first-degree murder trial in a different county, as she did. But, the more typical aspect of her application process went like this:
First, Bourdon used the federal government’s employer search tool for PSLF, a database of all employers that qualify for the benefit. But the PSLF help tool proved to be finicky and less user-friendly to Bourdon, so she abandoned it.
Next, Bourdon applied for consolidation, a necessary step for borrowers who don’t have direct loans. However, she says she was afraid of consolidating her debt due to the stringent rules of Public Service Loan Forgiveness and income-driven repayment forgiveness — if you consolidate, your countdown to forgiveness resets as zero.
Bourdon took the plunge in good faith. In the process, she chose to have her loans serviced by the only student loan servicer that manages debt for borrowers seeking PSLF (at the time, it was FedLoan Servicing, but those loans are in the process of moving to MOHELA by year’s end).
Finally, she submitted the combined PSLF/Employer Certification Form. She initially had two separate waiver forms because of a break in employment. But the human resources department at her employer sent back a single form and told her even if she had split periods of work, the federal student aid office would process it on one form.
This turned out to be a mistake.
Bourdon submitted the single application in November 2021. However, by early January 2022, she received a letter that stated she only had one qualifying payment according to the waiver and still had to make 119 more payments.
“I started freaking out,” Bourdon says. She received advice from the Debt Collective to submit two forms to certify her employment that accurately showed the separate periods of public service employment in her history.
Then, she waited and checked her account every single day.
“Nothing seemed to be changing. I was getting antsy,” says Bourdon. Then she saw an anticlimactic $1,000 decline in her total balance. “It was like, ‘Oh, thanks a lot,'” she says.
On Feb. 15, Bourdon logged in to her account and saw her debt was at zero. But, instead of instant relief, she says she was filled with doubt.
“For a second, I was like, ‘this is a trick,'” says Bourdon.
But two days later, she had a message in her account, a letter from her servicer confirming the discharge of her debt.
How to get the PSLF waiver
More than 146,000 borrowers have seen a collective $9 billion in loan debt forgiven through the temporary waiver, federal data from June shows. The average balance discharged through the waiver is $61,408. If your employer qualifies you for PSLF, you should apply even if past payments have been denied.
The PSLF waiver counts past payments that previously didn’t qualify including:
- Late payments.
- Payments equaling less than the full amount due.
- Payments made on the incorrect repayment plan.
- Payments made on loans that previously did not qualify, such as FFEL loans or Perkins loans.
- Payments not made during forbearance periods of 12 consecutive months or greater.
- Months spent in deferment, other than in-school deferment, before 2013.
Use the PSLF Help Tool to search for a qualifying employer and generate a form. It has been updated to align with the waiver.
To qualify, borrowers must already have direct loans or consolidate their federal debt into a new direct loan. The consolidation step is critical: Borrowers can submit a combined PSLF/Employer Certification form before consolidating, but they must consolidate to be eligible for forgiveness.
To find out if you qualify for additional payments and learn more about the waiver, log in to the federal student aid website. Make sure to submit it before the waiver expires on Oct. 31.

A former Florida Christian school teacher was arrested on Tuesday for allegedly twerking on an 18-year-old male student at the prom in April. She is also accused of pressuring him to drink alcohol at the event.
Julie Hoover, 39, a former teacher at Point of Grace Christian School in Perry, is facing a misdemeanor charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and a second-degree felony charge of an authority figure soliciting or engaging in lewd conduct with a student, according to police via WCTV.
Investigators allege that Hoover pressured the senior student to drink alcohol at the prom. At one point, the then-teacher forced the straw from the cup of her alcoholic beverage into his mouth.
Hoover had alcohol at the event due to beverages being placed in a back room for staff for later, after the students left.
The student also told investigators Hoover was “twerking” on him on the dance floor, which prompted some students to get in between him and the then-teacher. The 18-year-old noted it made him feel uncomfortable.
Hoover had been charged in June for sexting an 18-year-old male student and attempting to sneak him into her home while her husband was at work, Breitbart News reported.
It is unknown whether the two separate charges involve the same student.
An official with Point of Grace Christian School said that they were aware of the additional allegations against Hoover, according to WCTV.
Hoover is no longer employed by the school, according to an official from Point of Grace.
“The Taylor County Sheriff’s Office informed us of the allegations against Mrs. Hoover, and we have cooperated with the investigation. Out of respect for the judicial process, we will not comment any further at this time,” the official said in a statement.

Ross Chastain, the driver with a growing list of enemies, heads into the first elimination race of NASCAR’s playoffs in a pretty comfortable position above the cutline.
It’s Kyle Busch, and Austin Dillon, Chase Briscoe and Kevin Harvick, who are trying to stave off elimination Saturday night at Bristol Motor Speedway.
And yet Chastain can’t relax, even as he sits ninth in the 16-driver field. The bottom four in the standings will be eliminated when the checkered flag falls at the Tennessee short track, and Chastain can’t guarantee he won’t be knocked below that cutline. He’s angered enough fellow drivers this year that any payback headed his way could be delivered at a most inopportune time.
“I can’t speak for what other people are thinking,” Chastain said before Friday’s practice and qualifying at Bristol. “I just know that I hit the wall nice and hard at Pocono.”
Pocono is where Denny Hamlin refused to give Chastain even an inch of room on the track on a late restart because of previous incidents between the two. Hamlin had already declared “I’ve reached my peak” with Chastain before his aggressive retaliation forced Chastain into the wall.
Since then, Busch has made “Chastained” a verb in reference to when a driver gets hit by the eighth-generation Florida watermelon farmer, who has had a breakout first season with Trackhouse Racing. An anti-Chastain sentiment has developed and it wasn’t helped last week when hard racing between Chastain, Harvick and Bubba Wallace caused Harvick to crash and lodge the first three-race DNF streak of Harvick’s career.
Chastain acknowledged he “didn’t lift in time, didn’t leave him enough room, forced him into the wall” and that Harvick’s crash “was still my fault.”
Chastain even apologized to the 2014 NASCAR champion, who heads into Saturday night last in the 16-driver field because of Harvick’s terrible opening two playoff races. Harvick is essentially in a must-win situation Saturday night for any shot at advancing into the second round.
Because non-playoff drivers Erik Jones and Wallace won the first two playoff races, only Christopher Bell of Joe Gibbs Racing has locked himself into the second round via points. And Bristol, a .533-mile bullring, has a long history of bumping and banging and heated tempers after the checkered flag.
“You look at Bristol the last few years, it has been wild finishes and there is a lot on the line and there’s a lot of points,” said Joey Logano, who is ranked fourth headed into Saturday night.
NASCAR this season introduced a new spec Next Gen car that has equalized the competition, but Bristol was covered in dirt in the spring when the Cup Series made its first visit to the track. The race Saturday night is on the traditional concrete surface.
“I think Bristol has the most entertaining racing of any track we go to, period. I don’t think there’s a track better than this one, but I also think everyone’s expectations are unrealistic of what things you can possibly get out of it,” Logano added. “Whether it’s dirt or concrete, it’s been pretty intense lately and the end of the races have ended in fireworks in a lot of them.
“So, I don’t know why you would be expecting anything different than that.”
ELLIOTT ON THE SCHEDULE
NASCAR this week released its 2023 schedules to much feedback from its participants, particularly 2020 Cup champion Chase Elliott.
Elliott called for a more compact schedule, more night races, and argued against NASCAR continuing its season into November and going head-to-head with the NFL.
“I’m a firm believer that less is more in the sense of the timing of a schedule and when we could end our season to make the most for our TV ratings,” Elliott said Friday. “I mean, 36 (races)? 45? 50? I don’t think it matters how many races we have, but I don’t see any reason to be competing against NFL football when that starts. In my opinion, that’s not a battle we’re ever going to win.”
He also took exception to only Daytona in the summer, Bristol in the playoffs and one Atlanta race being scheduled to run at night. Elliott suggested the spectators in attendance would enjoy more races under the lights.
“There’s a lot of Sunday afternoons we spend in some really hot environments, which is fine, I’m good with that, but if I was a fan sitting in the bleachers, I wouldn’t be,” Elliott said. “You know, three or four hours in August? I’d much rather do that at night.”
NASCAR lastly didn’t leave a hole in the Cup schedule for any active drivers to miss a race to compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans as part of NASCAR’s special project to participate in the race. The Le Mans project is with Hendrick Motorsports, so many have assumed that Elliott or teammate Kyle Larson would be part of a three-driver all-star lineup.
Elliott said he was never skipping a race to go to Le Mans, which will run the same weekend NASCAR is scheduled to be at Sonoma in California.
“I don’t have any interest in it, and the reason being is because there is no competition in the class,” Elliott said. NASCAR’s entry won’t count for points or position and is an exhibition event at Le Mans.
“I want to go and compete and that’s the part that I enjoy, seeing where you stack up against other competitors and where I need to be better and challenging myself and pushing myself. When there’s no other cars in the class, that would take a large piece of the fun out of it for me. We can’t do it anyway, but I don’t have a ton of interest in the way it is right now. Not this one.”
ODDS AND ENDS
Joey Logano will make his 500th Cup Series start Saturday night. Logano is 32 years old and made his Cup debut at age 18. … Austin Dillon said Richard Childress Racing gave the pit crew of his No. 3 Chevrolet five-year contracts to build continuity and enhance the team culture at RCR. … Petty GMS Motorsports will use Joe Gibbs Racing pit crews next season. The No. 42 team began using JGR crews last weekend at Kansas Speedway; both the GMS cars will use Gibbs crews next season.

SARAH VINE: I didn’t earn the right to join the pageantry, like David Beckham. But I’ve never felt so humbled
What a strange and seismic week it has been. A week in which the tectonic plates of British life have shifted irreversibly, sending shock waves around the globe.
The Queen rests in peace, and our whole world is reshaping itself before our very eyes. In the midst of grief, a new Monarchy is taking form, sustained and supported by traditions of old and yet still, somehow, as lost and vulnerable as the rest of us.
How could one woman, one small woman, mean so much? And yet she did. She does. Forget the fine words, forget the pomp and circumstance: the most powerful expression of Elizabeth II’s ability to touch the hearts of millions is the five-mile queue of people waiting to file past her coffin as it lies in state in Westminster Hall.
There is an autumnal chill in the air, a crisp September bite, yet still they wait, still they come. Quietly, patiently, with stoicism and good humour, with sandwiches and Thermos flasks, with fold-up chairs and umbrellas. Standing, doing their solemn duty as she always did, come rain, shine, sleet or snow.
When on Friday David Beckham was discovered standing in The Queue, like everybody else, for hours on end, he earned the respect of everyone watching
All for a few seconds in her presence, a chance to pay their respects and say goodbye to a woman who the majority of them never met, yet who meant so much.
In some ways there is no more fitting tribute to a British Queen. Because queues are our thing, they are what we do. We are known all over the world for our habit of waiting patiently in line for things. It’s considered one of our most enduring and eccentric traits.
Other cultures tease us for it, but we don’t mind. We may tut-tut and complain, but secretly we quite like a queue. It’s part of who we are. It speaks to our national character, our desire for order and fair play, to do things right, to have everything in its proper place. Those are the rules of British life, and that is an expression of our culture.
And this queue is very special. It was so long it acquired a queue of its own. A queue for The Queue! Have you ever heard of anything so quintessentially British, so Pythonesque in nature? I know now is not the time for levity, but I think the notion would have made her smile. She did, after all, have a great sense of humour.
Forget the fine words, forget the pomp and circumstance: the most powerful expression of Elizabeth II’s ability to touch the hearts of millions is the five-mile queue of people waiting to file past her coffin as it lies in state in Westminster Hall, says SARAH VINE (pictured)
And on some level, how deeply heartening to see, at a time when so many certainties seem to be falling away, when so much lawlessness and chaos seems to stalk the land, that order still reigns. Our lives may have been upended, but this country still has standards and traditions, and these things matter.
That’s why we get so cross when people jump queues, and especially This Queue. And it is also why, when on Friday David Beckham was discovered standing in it, like everybody else, for hours on end, he earned the respect of everyone watching. Here was a man who had a VIP invitation, and yet he opted not to use it.
Instead he chose to honour his Queen as an ordinary subject, even though he is far from ordinary.
Cynics might say it was a deliberate ploy to endear himself to the public. But I really doubt it. I don’t know Beckham personally, but our boys used to play football together in the same junior league team, and I’ve stood next to him on the touchline on many a rainy Sunday morning.
Of all the famous people I’ve met over the years, he’s one of the most down-to-earth, and also one of the most good-natured. Wherever he went, people would constantly ask him for selfies and autographs, and I never once saw him turn someone away, or exhibit even the slightest irritation at the endless interruptions and intrusion into his private space. By all accounts he was the same in The Queue. Fair play to him.
Quietly, patiently, with stoicism and good humour, with sandwiches and Thermos flasks, with fold-up chairs and umbrellas
The Queue is humbling. It humbles me especially, because I was one of the lucky ones who got to jump it. I was offered a ticket for priority access, and what can I say? I did not play it like Beckham. I accepted.
Admittedly, the invitation was issued before The Queue even existed, before the sheer numbers of people wanting to pay their respects had become apparent. And I was distracted, discombobulated, a little out of the loop: on the Sunday after the Queen died, my father was suddenly taken very ill in Italy.
I had to jump on the first flight to Turin to be by his side. Events back in the UK, so hugely momentous, were somewhat eclipsed by our own small family drama.
When it became apparent how serious things were, I tried to give the ticket away. But the invitation was set in stone and non-transferable. And when I told my mother that I had been given this opportunity, she insisted I go. I argued with her, but she was having none of it.
The Queen meant a great deal to her, and to her father, who on more than one occasion had the privilege of escorting Her Majesty on official duties. I have a wonderful photo of my grandfather with her in 1962, when he was in charge of the garrison at Stirling Castle. He thought the world of her.
My mother said it would be an insult, not only to the Queen but to his memory, and to all those standing outside in the cold, to be so graceless as to throw it away.
Of all the famous people I’ve met over the years, he’s one of the most down-to-earth, and also one of the most good-natured
And so I flew back to London late on Thursday night to be there early Friday morning. It was an immense privilege, and an extraordinary moment, to be escorted through the gothic splendour of Central Lobby into Westminster Hall to join the silent sea of humanity filing past the coffin.
I have only once before in my life experienced a similar atmosphere. That was a lifetime ago when, in 1978, my parents took me to see the Turin Shroud on one of the very rare occasions it has ever been on public display. It was a mixture of awe and reverence, of raw emotion at times overwhelming that even then, aged just 11, I understood to be something very vital.
The simplicity yet overwhelming symbolism of the object of focus, and above all an extraordinary sense of hearts and minds united in the moment, was inescapable, even to the eyes of a child. I felt that again in Westminster Hall, as I saw the gems glistening in her crown, the orb and sceptre next to it, the bouquet of white roses and dahlias, the silent, immobile faces of the Beefeaters, the Guardsmen half buried beneath their bearskins, every sinew straining to maintain a rock-like composure. A Gentleman at Arms, eyes closed, hands gripping his spear, muscles shaking with the effort.
It was an immense privilege, and an extraordinary moment, to be escorted through the gothic splendour of Central Lobby into Westminster Hall to join the silent sea of humanity filing past the coffin
An incredible aura of peace surrounded the coffin, a sense almost of the divine. To be there felt like balm for the soul. There were tears, of sorrow yes, but also of love and gratitude.
Later I spoke to my friend Susannah who, unlike me, had queued for 11 hours through the night with her husband. It was only when she gave me her account of the standing and waiting, at 3am in the shadow of the London Eye, the cold night wind whipping off the Thames, nothing open, just a few stone benches shared between thousands, that I knew how privileged I had been.
We both reached our destination at the same time, around 9am. And yet my journey had been just a short Tube ride. Hers had been, like so many others’, a pilgrimage.
I know that, unlike so many in The Queue, I did not earn the right to be part of that incredible pageantry. But in a week filled with sadness on so many levels, I am incredibly grateful for it. It is a memory that I, like so many others, will treasure for the rest of my life.

Three CEOs known for being the leading innovators of our times have one personality trait in common, which why Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and the late Steve Jobs are so successful.
According to the author and historian Walter Isaacson, Musk, Gates and Jobs were very unemotional when dealing with their employees or colleagues. However, they are also uncompromising about fulfilling their visions for businesses, Isaacson said on CNBC’s Squawk Box.
Isaacson, who wrote Job’s biography and is working on a book about Musk, said he sees a direct comparison between Musk and Jobs’ social bluntness.
“That ability to not be as emotionally, empathetically engaged to see [their] vision through. It’s something Steve Jobs had, it’s something Bill Gates [has],” Isaacson said.

“Musk is very similar [to Jobs] in being extraordinarily open,” he said. “That transparency is part of his genius.”
“It’s something many of these people have because they’re not looking for affection from the person sitting across them. Instead, they’re looking to get rockets to Mars,” he added.
Isaacson said about Musk, “I’ve always been interested in innovators and people who push the boundaries, and he’s pushing the most important and difficult boundaries.”
However, he added that Musk definitely “cares about his reputation” — but that doesn’t change his tendency to be blunt, or even harsh, with employees.
In a podcast telecasted in 2020, Gates admitted that he was not a sweetheart during his early days at Microsoft.
Gates said that he and Jobs were known for their intense competitive fire. It eventually translated into extremely high expectations for their employees.

LOS ANGELES — In its final nonconference game ahead of Pac-12 play, UCLA got every bit of a test – and then some – from South Alabama at the Rose Bowl on Saturday in a 32-31 win thanks to a 24-yard las-second field goal by Nicholas Barr-Mira.
After dominating Bowling Green and Alabama State in their first two contests, the Bruins faced what was likely their most comparable competition to date. And they barely staved off an upset by a team from the Sun Belt Conference.
The Bruins capitalized on a botched trick-play attempt on a field goal by South Alabama with under three minutes to play. On the subsequent drive, Dorian Thompson-Robinson connected with Titus Mokiao-Atimalala for 29 yards to put the Bruins into field-goal range. It was part of a 61-yard, 10-play drive to close out the win.
UCLA trailed 31-23 entering the fourth quarter after South Alabama took advantage of a Thompson-Robinson fumble with a touchdown. The Bruins clawed closer on a fourth-down, 8-yard touchdown pass from Thompson-Robinson to Logan Loya, but the subsequent two-point conversion was unsuccessful.
Thompson-Robinson finished 20-of-30 passing for 263 yards. Running back Zach Charbonnet had 13 carries for 77 yards. Jake Bobo had a breakout game at receiver, with five catches for 89 yards and a touchdown.
Three Sun Belt Conference teams had already upset Power Five opponents on the road entering Saturday, and South Alabama nearly became the fourth.
The Bruins struck quickly out of the locker room at halftime, going on a 4-play, 75-yard drive capped with an 11-yard touchdown catch by Kam Brown, playing in his first game of the season.
UCLA’s defense entered the game with the Pac-12’s best rushing defense, allowing 62 yards per game. But it gave up 110 yards on the ground in the first half alone, as South Alabama outgained UCLA 250-195 overall in the first half.
The defense did not record a single tackle for loss until the fourth quarter, and South Alabama was also 8 for 10 on third-down conversions.
Attendance was 29,344, the second-smallest crowd for a UCLA game in Rose Bowl history after the record-low was set two weeks ago during the season opener.
The Bruins settled for field goals on their first two drives of 38 and 49 yards, respectively, by Barr-Mira. An interception by JonJon Vaughns on South Alabama’s opening series put UCLA near the red zone, but the Bruins went three-and-out.
UCLA thought it took its first lead in the second quarter when Charbonnet caught a 7-yard pass from Thompson-Robinson, but upon review was ruled down short of the goal line. On the next play, Charbonnet fumbled and the ball was recovered by South Alabama.
South Alabama took advantage, going on a 12-play, 80-yard drive capped off by a 9-yard touchdown run by La’Damian Webb through a wide hole up the middle to take a 17-6 lead.
Bobo caught his first touchdown pass of his UCLA career, a 9-yard leaping grab to draw UCLA within 17-13 at halftime.

When is the Queen’s funeral?
Bank holiday declared across UK for funeral on Monday 19 September
The state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II will be held at Westminster Abbey at 11am on Monday 19 September, it has been announced.
The Queen’s body has been brought down from Scotland to lie in state in Westminster Hall for “four clear days”, until 6.30am on the morning of the funeral, to allow the public to pay their respects.
Earlier on Saturday King Charles III declared the date of the state funeral to be a bank holiday across the UK.
The coffin bearing the Queen’s body – lying at Balmoral Castle – will begin its journey to the abbey on Sunday, taking a six-hour journey by hearse to the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh.
The journey to Edinburgh will be taken at a slow pace in order to allow mourners in towns and villages on the route to pay their respects. Scotland’s first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, said the “poignant” journey would give the public a chance to “mark our country’s shared loss”.
From Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh, the coffin will be taken in procession along the Royal Mile to St Giles’ Cathedral. After a service attended by members of the royal family, it will remain at the cathedral for a period of lying at rest until 13 September.
It will then be flown by RAF plane to the Northolt airbase and taken to Buckingham Palace, then on to parliament, where the Queen will lie in state in historic Westminster Hall.
Over the following days ahead of the state funeral, the coffin will stand on a catafalque in the hall, guarded by troops from the Household Cavalry and Guards regiments while members of the public file past to pay their respects.
Thousands of people are expected to file past the late monarch’s coffin during the period of lying in state. Further details of how the public can attend will be announced in the coming days.
From there, it is expected to be taken on a gun carriage hauled by Royal Navy sailors to Westminster Abbey for the state funeral service, then moved to St George’s Chapel in Windsor, where the Queen will be laid to rest.
The coffin of Prince Philip, the Queen’s husband of 73 years who died in April 2021, is expected to be moved from the royal vault at Windsor to be buried alongside his wife.
Arrangements for the coming days were announced by the Duke of Norfolk, in his role as Earl Marshal. A spokesperson for the King said the monarch’s main focus would be leading the royal family and nation in mourning over the coming days.
Charles and Camilla will attend a presentation of addresses in Westminster Hall on Monday 12 September, attended by MPs, peers and members from the legislatures of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
The King will then be joined by Liz Truss as he attends services of reflection in Scotland on Monday, Northern Ireland on Tuesday and Wales on Friday, according to No 10.
“While, in the next few days, the King will carry out all the necessary state duties, his main focus will be leading the royal family, the nation, the realms and the Commonwealth in mourning Her Majesty The Queen.
“This will include meeting members of the public to share in their grief,” the spokesperson said.

The NBA has punished Phoenix Suns and Mercury owner Robert Sarver to the tune of a $10 million fine and a one-year suspension from all basketball-related activity as a result of its investigation into Sarver’s workplace conduct.
According to the probe — spurred by a November 2021 ESPN report alleging racism and misogyny within the Suns organization — Sarver used the N-word “on at least five occasions” when recounting the statements of others, and engaged in “inequitable conduct toward female employees.”
More specifically, Sarver “made many sex-related comments in the workplace, made inappropriate comments about the physical appearance of female employees and other women,” and “on several occasions engaged in inappropriate physical conduct toward male employees.”
Sarver, who bought the Suns in 2004, cooperated fully with the investigation, the league said.
“The statements and conduct described in the finding of the independent investigation are troubling and disappointing,” NBA commissioner Adam Silver said in the statement on Tuesday. “We believe the outcome is the right one, taking into account all the facts, circumstances and context brought to light by the comprehensive investigation of this 18-year period and our commitment to upholding proper standards in NBA workplaces.”
But the NBA’s statement regarding its independent investigation also contradicts the findings and appears to take the long-time real estate mogul off the hook for the bad behavior that was uncovered from a probe that included interviews with 320 current or former employees.
“The investigation made no finding that Mr. Sarver’s workplace misconduct was motivated by racial or gender-based animus,” the NBA’s statement reads after an independent investigation by an outside law firm.
Instead, the report tries to portray the 60-year-old owner as something of an entitled frat boy.
“While it is difficult to identify with precision what motivated Sarver’s workplace behavior described in this report, certain patterns emerged from witness accounts: Sarver often acted aggressively in an apparent effort to provoke a reaction from his targets; Sarver’s sense of humor was sophomoric and inappropriate for the workplace; and Sarver behaved as though workplace norms and policies did not apply to him,” read the report from the New York-based investigating firm of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz.
During his suspension, Sarver will have to complete a training program focused on workplace conduct. The NBA will donate the funds from Sarver’s $10 million fine to organizations that address race and gender-based issues in the workplace.
Silver’s suspension of Sarver is his biggest punishment levied on an NBA owner since his first year as NBA commissioner in 2014 when he banned Donald Sterling for life from the NBA and fined the former Los Angeles Clippers owner $2.5 million after investigating racist comments he made on a phone call to an ex-girlfriend. Sterling told the woman, of mixed ethnicity, not to be seen with or bring Black people to Clippers games.
“It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you’re associating with Black people,” Sterling said on the recording.
Sarver’s punishment was less severe than Sterling’s given his mere one-year ban to the lifetime ban Sterling faced, but both owners were hit by the maximum allowed fine at the time under NBA bylaws.
Many, however, remain confused by the length of Sarver’s punishment. For reference, former Sacramento Kings guard Tyreke Evans was levied a three-year suspension for violating the NBA/NBPA Anti-Drug Policy.
“As tough as it was to do, Robert Sarver’s racism, misogyny and more is as worse as Donald Sterling’s and very well may surpass it,” ESPN’s Marc Spears tweeted after the Sarver news broke. “How does the Suns owner get a pass to return to his throne after a year suspension and not pushed out the NBA like Sterling? Confused by this result.”
Silver, in his statement, recognized the league still has room for growth.
“I am hopeful that the NBA community will use this opportunity to reflect on what this great game means to people everywhere and the values of equality, respect and inclusion that it strives to represent,” he wrote. “Regardless of position, power or intent, we all need to recognize the corrosive and hurtful impact of racially insensitive and demeaning language and behavior. On behalf of the entire NBA, I apologize to all of those impacted by the misconduct outlined in the investigators’ report. We must do better.”
The Suns released a statement that stated that the organization had “for the most part … addressed in recent years” the workplace issues highlighted in the investigation.
“We are proud of the progress we’ve already made,” the Suns said.
“Robert Sarver is also taking responsibility for his actions,” the statement continued. “He recognizes that at times during his eighteen years of ownership, his conduct did not reflect his, or the Suns’ values, and was inconsistent with the advancements the management team has taken with Robert’s full support.”

La Velle's 3-2 Pitch: Three observations and two predictions on Sundays.
. . .
In 1961, Twins fans could arrive home from work, have dinner, check on the family and then head to Metropolitan Stadium for an 8 p.m. first pitch during the summer break months.
Games then would end around the two-hour mark, occasionally 2½ hours, so fans would be headed home around 10:30 p.m. at the latest.
When I became a baseball fan in the early 1970's, games started at 7:30. By the time I started covering the Kansas City Royals in 1995, first pitch was at 7 p.m., which made making deadline easier.
The Twins currently schedule midweek games to start at 6:40 p.m. after watching fans leave Target Field at 10 p.m., regardless of the score, because of work in the morning or the kiddos having to be put to bed.
This year, MLB games are averaging 3:04. The sport has been bogged down by replay, commercial breaks, pitchers and hitters taking as much time as possible between pitches. Last season, I timed Matt Shoemaker and Hansel Robles taking as many as 23 seconds between pitches — with the bases empty.
We can debate the strategic impact of implementing a pitch clock some other time. The point here is that games are 28 minutes shorter in the minors this season because of a pitch clock. To clean up a phrase from Lizzo's hit song for this family newspaper, It's about darn time!
Despite the league's efforts to speed up games, they continued to trudge along. Something had to be done. And the league finally has acted.
I saw it for myself on Aug. 19 when I attended a suite party at a Saints game and was delighted to see that North St. Paul's Louie Varland was on the mound.
Varland, who ended up making his major league debut on Sept. 7, hit 96 mph on the gun as late as the sixth inning. He gave up two earned runs over 5⅔ innings while fanning seven batters.
The game had been delayed by rain and did not start until 7:32 p.m. The Twins were home that night against Texas, but their game started on time. I tracked both games. There were a couple of late lengthy innings at CHS Field on Friday, but the Saints game, despite the rain delay, finished at 10:05 — just one minute after the Twins game ended. I was able to see an up-and-coming Twins pitcher in a game that lasted 2:33.
Players might grumble about how they might have to change their on-field habits with the arrival of the pitch clock. Parents leaving Target Field at 9:30 next season will have the option of giving their kids dessert first instead of sending them straight to bed.
Way to go out
Some athletes love competing so much they will play until injuries or declining skills end their careers. That is not the case for Lynx center Sylvia Fowles.
Fowles averaged 14.4 points and a WNBA-leading 9.8 rebounds a game this past season and could probably play another two seasons at a high level. Heck, she led the league with a 62.2 field-goal percentage.
But Fowles, 36, has retired following a 15-year career during which she starred for both the Lynx and Chicago Sky. She was an All-Star in four or her last six full seasons with the Lynx. She retires as an eight-time All-Star, four-time Olympic gold medalist for Team USA and 11-time WNBA All-Defensive team member.
And there's more.
On Thursday, she was named to the second-team All-WNBA team. It's the eighth time she's made the first or second all-league team.
Fowles is retiring on her terms but doing so while still at the height of her powers.
Who is going to Philly?
What will be interesting to me about the Vikings' "Monday Night Football" game against the Eagles is not what Justin Jefferson plans for an encore after his Week 1 thrashing of the Packers secondary, or what Dalvin Cook does carrying the ball against a defense that gave up 181 yards on the ground to Detroit last week.
It will be how many Vikings fans will travel to the City of Brotherly Shove to watch the game in person — or how many of them will enter Lincoln Financial Field in team colors.
In Philadelphia, insults aren't tolerated, they are graded. And their fans will be combining happy hour and pregame tailgating, a toxic mix.
"It's a crazy environment," Cook said. "I know their fans will be ecstatic. They be crazy. But it is just about controlling the environment. I've played enough football to know it is just another road game."
Two predictions
Cook powers Vikings win
The Vikings will encounter an Eagles team on Monday that will be better prepared than Green Bay was last week, but Cook will run the ball effectively and the Vikings will leave Philadelphia with a 27-24 victory.
Loons are playoff-bound
The Loons will win their final two games of the regular season over Vancouver and San Jose and safely qualify for the MLS playoffs.

Bill Algeo believes UFC Fight Night 210 opponent Andre Fili's chin is 'deteriorating'
LAS VEGAS – Bill Algeo thinks Andre Fili is showing signs of wear.
The UFC featherweight thinks Fili’s chin is not what it once was, following years of competing with some of the best in the UFC’s 145-pound division. Algeo (16-6 MMA, 3-2 UFC) takes on Fili (21-9 MMA, 9-8 UFC) on the main card of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 210 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
Fili has more professional fighting experience, but Algeo doesn’t see that as a disadvantage, – quite the opposite, actually.
“Not really, I got experience too, there’s no difference,” Algeo told reporters at the UFC Fight Night 210 media day on Wednesday. “Yeah, he’s fought higher-level competition for a little bit longer, but that also shows in his chin, to be honest with you. It’s deteriorating in my opinion.”
Despite thinking Fili is not as durable as he once was, Algeo has plenty of respect for the veteran and takes him as a serious challenge.
“He mixes it up well, I think that’s his best attribute,” Algeo said. “He trains with Ricardo Ramos, who beat me. I kind of got into the lull of a kickboxing match and then all of a sudden I’m getting taken down and giving up easy takedowns. So I just have to be sharp everywhere and get ready to mix it up. But I like my chances wherever it goes.”

Sept. 16 (UPI) — Four newbies are joining the Season 48 cast of “Saturday Night Live.”
“Welcome to the cast, Marcello Hernandez, Molly Kearney, Michael Longfellow, and Devon Walker!” the “SNL” Twitter feed said Thursday.
The show, which won the 2022 Emmy Award for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series on Monday, kicks off its new season Oct. 1.
The additions were announced following the departures of Aidy Bryant, Kate McKinnon, Pete Davidson, Kyle Mooney, Melissa Villasenor, Alex Moffat and Aristotle Athari.
Cecily Strong is expected to be absent for at least the early part of the upcoming season because she is working on other projects and senior producer Lindsay Shookus, who had worked on “SNL” for about two decades, left the show in late August.
The plans for longtime cast members Heidi Gardner, Chloe Fineman, Ego Nwodim, Mikey Day, Chris Redd, Bowen Yang, Colin Jost, Michel Che and Kenan Thompson are still unclear.

This article will look at the process of building your business case from a non financial point of view. My next piece will look at the financials. It is important to remember that a business case that is solely focused on high level financials is probably not going to get signed off and approved. On the other hand, a business case that covers all aspects of your proposed changes and provides a bottom-up value assessment is far more likely to be.

Local hoops legend gives back to H-Town
Houston, TX — Oprah once recalled a teachable moment shared with her mentor, Dr. Maya Angelou. While making biscuits, Oprah suggested opening a school in South Africa "will be my legacy."
Angelou sighed and shook her head. "You have no idea what your legacy will be," she explained. "Your legacy is every life you’ve touched."
Recently when I caught up with my old teammate, Remi Yusuf, I mentioned his legacy will be defined by playing professionally for our hometown team. After all, he was the only player from our team that made it all the way to the NBA. But to my surprise, Yusuf saw things differently.
"No way," Yusuf said, in a calm voice. "My lasting legacy is my 9th Wonder Foundation." He smiled. "There's nothing I love more than offering a child Hope ... teaching a child Perseverance ... and instilling in a child Confidence."
The acronym "HPC" strikes at the very heart of Yusuf's mission. And by giving the youth a solid foundation, he's also giving double meaning to his very own foundation.
I was especially impressed, pardon, inspired by Yusuf's 4th Annual Super Elite Basketball Clinic For Autism and Special Needs.
Show me someone helping people who can't help back and I'll show you true greatness!
Perhaps there's something to Yusuf's being born three days after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and just a day after Muhammad Ali. Perhaps a birthday says more about someone than a mere day of birth...
...Perhaps what inspires me most about my old teammate is this: he proves why obstacles merely reveal whether or not we're doing something mainly for money.
In Yusuf's case, not only has he donated his own time, energy and money, but he also donates brain power. After all, this coming Saturday, Yusuf's foundation is hosting a special benefit for underprivileged youth and children with autism.
In short, with all things considered: I now understand why a former Houston Rocket considers serving his community an even higher goal than dunking on a basketball goal.
For more info on Saturday's benefit, visit: go.rallyup.com
*All proceeds go to assisting underprivileged youth, children with autism and special needs programs.

The state Department of Health is aware of the ongoing issues of hospitals and skilled nursing facilities (SNF) facing challenges in moving a hospital patient to a nursing facility and nursing facilities not accepting patients because they don’t have adequate staffing.
DOH Spokesman Mark O’Neil said the administration took critical steps to support health systems during those staffing shortages last year.
“You may recall that the department put several strike teams in place across the state to help reduce the strain on hospitals and create additional capacity for patients to be moved from hospitals to SNFs with adequate staffing,” said O’Neil. “The administration also worked swiftly with the Legislature in a bipartisan manner to appropriate $225 million to support the health care workforce.”
The administration also prioritized addressing funding for these facilities in the governor’s budget proposal and the final state budget invests more than $500 million, with the expectation that the hundreds of millions of dollars would support quality care for Pennsylvania’s nursing home residents, he said.
“The increased payments, which go to direct resident care, and the federal funding, which can be utilized for, among other things, staff recruitment and retention, are necessary to maintain and increase quality of care for the residents,” said O’Neil. “In addition, the budget included funding accountability language requiring nursing facilities to spend a minimum of 70% of their funding on resident and resident-related costs. This accountability language is expected to go into effect in 2023.”
While the state does not have vaccination requirements for skilled nursing facilities, it strongly encourages vaccinations in these settings. Some SNF workers, however, are subject to a vaccine requirement from the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), he said.
The state does not track data on how many patients are affected by this, said O’Neil.
“The department does not track this information, as tracking such situations in rapidly-changing health care settings would be counterproductive and potentially interfere with patient care,” he said. “Hospitals and long-term care facilities often resolve transfer issues quickly on their own. As noted above, during the peak of COVID-19 when hospitals and nursing homes were both overwhelmed, the department initiated multiple short-term remedies to help mitigate the situation.”
Contributing factors
Katie Andreano, a spokesperson for LeadingAge PA, an association representing more than 360 aging services providers across the state, said the relationship between hospitals and long-term care providers plays an essential role within the aging services ecosystem, as skilled nursing communities often operate short-term rehabilitation units where older adults receive specialized care after a hospital stay.
“Many long-term care providers throughout Pennsylvania, including members of LeadingAge PA, have been forced to make the difficult decision to limit admissions of new residents repeatedly over the past several years, often into those on-site rehabilitation units,” said Andreano. “Our members have strong relationships with their local hospitals and health systems and communicate frequently about discharges and bed capacity and make these capacity decisions on a weekly or daily basis based on staffing levels and COVID-related isolation requirements.”
Andreano said there are two primary factors and one secondary factor that contribute to the decision to limit admissions: “the current workforce crisis, outdated COVID-19 protocols, and inadequate funding. LeadingAge PA members are mission-driven organizations that want to provide needed care and services to as many older adults as possible, however, they are not going to admit new residents when there is a risk of providing a lower level of care due to lack of staff, and not enough single rooms to adhere to COVID-19 isolation protocols.”
Andreano said nursing homes struggled to keep dedicated workers, in part because Medicaid funding remained flat for years, making it impossible to keep up with even basic inflationary costs.
“The pandemic only made this worse, further exacerbating the funding and workforce crisis as nursing homes struggle to ensure access to care for some of Pennsylvania’s most vulnerable residents,” she said. “According to a report commissioned by LeadingAge PA, nursing homes were underfunded by nearly $1.2 billion in Medicaid in 2019-2020, nearly double the shortfall from just a few years prior.”
‘Much-needed’ funding
The recently enacted 2022-23 state budget provided the first across-the-board Medicaid funding increase for long-term care in nearly a decade, Andreano said.
“This funding, which will begin to be distributed in January 2023, is a much-needed first step, however, the record inflationary costs and COVID-19-related expenses continue to drain an already struggling sector,” said Andreano. “Plus, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s recent decision to reverse the venue shopping rule, which also goes into effect in January, will only perpetuate the financial instability of aging services providers and further jeopardize access to long-term care.”
There are no quick solutions here, but there are some places to start, she said.
“Providers can’t wait every 10 years for a funding increase, while access to care hangs in the balance,” said Andreano. “Now that the COVID-19 virus is becoming a part of everyday life and the threat of severe outcomes has lessened, it’s time to rethink and reverse the rules and regulations that are no longer necessary and inhibit both providers’ ability to operate efficiently and residents’ quality of life.”
Significant investment needs to be made in the aging services workforce, she said.
“Resolving testing capacity issues, which are preventing Temporary Nurse Aides from getting certified is one place to start,” said Andreano. “Increasing investment in training programs and educational opportunities that would create career ladders (for example, Medication Administration Training) and build a pipeline of future caregivers, coupled with funding increases to support competitive wages and benefits would also begin to address this issue.”

Raimel Tapia’s bases-clearing double in the fifth inning lifted the Toronto Blue Jays to a 6-3 win against the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday.
With the Blue Jays ahead 3-2, Tapia smacked a double to centre field with the bases loaded to improve Toronto’s record in September to a Major League Baseball best 13-4.
The Blue Jays (83-63) also widened their gap on the Orioles (75-69) to seven games in the American League wildcard race. Toronto sits first in the battle for the three wildcard spots, while the Orioles are fourth.
The Blue Jays scored a run in the first inning on Matt Chapman’s sacrifice fly and two more in the second when Cavan Biggio and Santiago Espinal knocked one-out singles and scored on George Springer’s double off the left-field fence.Springer enjoyed a sound game, going 2-for-4 with a single and double for two RBI, scoring a run, and making a dandy diving catch on Ramon Urias’s sinking fly ball in the fourth inning.
Baltimore starter Kyle Bradish (3-7) settled down after his rough start. He retired nine in a row until a fifth-inning, one-out throwing error from Urias that ignited a Blue Jays rally.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who extended his hit streak to 11 games with a first-inning infield hit that dribbled down the third-base line, reached base on the Urias error.
Cathal Kelly: The Blue Jays must learn to coast into the playoffs
Bradish’s final batter, Chapman, walked, as did Teoscar Hernandez, to load the bases when Baltimore reliever Jake Reed took over. This set the table for Tapia’s bases-clearing double.
Bradish lasted 4 ⅔ innings, yielding six hits for three unearned runs, a walk and three strikeouts.
Toronto starter Jose Berrios (11-5) went six innings, striking out three, walking two and giving up seven hits before 44,448 fans at Rogers Centre.
He was tagged for a pair of runs in the third inning. A lead-off double from Cedric Mullins and a one-out double from Anthony Santander put Orioles on first and second.
Baltimore shortstop Gunnar Henderson drove in his teammates with a single to left to close the Blue Jays’ advantage to 3-2.
Henderson also doubled with one out in the eighth inning and scored on Terrin Vavra’s single off Toronto reliever Yimi Garcia.
Blue Jays stopper Jordan Romano closed the deal in the ninth inning for his 34th save.
Injury update
Interim Toronto manager John Schneider reported there is a chance Alejandro Kirk (hip) could return after a four-game absence to catch Alek Manoah on Sunday. Kirk was behind the plate for all Manoah’s 28 starts this season. Outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (hamstring strain) is eligible to come off the 10-game disabled list on Sunday.
Up next
Manoah (14-7) will face Orioles righty Dean Kremer (7-5) in the series finale on Sunday. Manoah is 2-1 with a no-decision in four starts with eight earned runs in 24 ⅔ innings against Baltimore in 2022.

Lahore, Sep 16 (IANS) Pakistan may have included express pace bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi in the 15-man squad for the ICC T20 World Cup in Australia, while also retaining batter Fakhar Zaman among the reserves for the showpiece event next month, but with the duo not completely out of the woods, given that they are still nursing injuries, Babar Azam’s side will likely be edgy till the first match of the mega event is played.
Zaman injured his right knee, landing awkwardly while fielding during the T20 Asia Cup final in Dubai and will fly to London to begin his rehabilitation, an ICC report quoting Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said.
Pakistan lost the final to Sri Lanka with Zaman being bowled for a first-ball duck after hurting his knee in the first innings. The 32-year-old Zaman is one of three travelling reserves in the squad for the T20 World Cup, paying the price for form and fitness concerns.
The former No.2-ranked T20I batter has scored just 96 runs in six innings at the just-concluded Asia Cup, with the bulk of those coming from a half-century against Hong Kong during the group stage.
The batter will also not be a part of the seven-match T20I home series against England, where he would have hoped to stake his claims for a call-up to Pakistan’s final T20 World Cup squad if a spot opens up.
The left-handed batter will instead join Afridi in London, where the star pace bowler is said to be making good progress in his rehabilitation and is on track to recover in time for the T20 World Cup.
Afridi was the key bowler for Pakistan in the 2021 ICC T20 World Cup match against India, where his stunning 3/31 helped the side thrash the arch-rivals by 10 wickets in the UAE. Afridi missed the recently concluded Asia Cup due to a knee injury but the 22-year-old has been named in Pakistan’s T20 World Cup squad, with his addition being crucial to the team’s fortunes in the upcoming tournament.
Pakistan open their T20 World Cup campaign against India on October 23 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).

I burst into tears after the shock of the Queen’s death, says Archbishop of Canterbury
THE Archbishop of Canterbury says he cried after hearing the Queen died then raced home from holiday in France.
Justin Welby revealed he shed a tear and the news “caught him off-guard”.
He said yesterday: “I was on holiday in Normandy, in France, when I received the call from an aide saying Her Majesty had passed away.
It was an extraordinary moment. We drove through the night to get back here for 5am in the morning on Friday.
All we could talk about was what all this could mean and what could happen. How do you begin to describe it?”
He said while visiting queues at Lambeth Bridge: “It’s impossible not to feel emotional when you see these crowds — and when you see the Royal Family dealing with their loss.”
The Archbishop also dropped off supplies for his sister-in-law, who had been queuing for 12 hours.
Mary Eaton, 66, registrar of Rhodes Scholarship at Oxford University, said: “As far as Deliveroo drivers go I feel very spoilt having the Archbishop rescue me with breakfast.
"We stopped for 45 minutes at one point because they were rehearsing the funeral.
"Everyone just sat down or tried to have a snooze.”

FLORENCE, S.C. — Clergy, politicians, church members, and community advocates gathered in the gymnasium of First Baptist Church to honor several nonprofit organizations that have partnered with the church.
The Rev. Michael Crawford, senior pastor of First Baptist Church, was accompanied by state Sen. Mike Reichenbach in the giving of awards at the dinner.
Reichenbach, one of two guests speaking for the night, gave words of hope and encouragement.
“Community service isn’t easy,” Reichenbach said. “It isn’t convenient, and candidly, the results are not guaranteed. It is hard because there is no formulated approach to giving and serving.”
Reichenbach said the act of serving is difficult and encouraged those who are working for the community to keep going even when the results they are working towards aren’t there.

Reichenbach went on to quote a statement from Mother Teresa: “When we work hard, all day long it feels as if we are only a drop in the ocean. But if our individual drops were not in the ocean, the ocean would be dry.”
“Each of us can be a drop in the ocean, that is, the community we serve,” Reichenbach said. “Let’s never forget the impact we can have when we invest in our communities because we might be the only sustenance that that person or sector can ever find.”
Danny Nicholson, the second speaker of the night, spoke on his life story and how everything he had been through was preparing him to be the president of Connie Maxwell Children’s Home. From being adopted to a life-changing car accident, he said, it was all to prepare him.
Nicholson also spoke on the impact of Connie Maxwell Children’s Home in the community and how many children are being taken care of who would have not been otherwise.
Michelle Humphrey, a member of First Baptist church, said the event was special. She is the chief financial officer at House of Hope.
“This event was a special one,” Humphrey said. “I left government to do mission work and the work that is being done in the community through these organizations should be highlighted.”
Humphrey said she worked in government for 33 years and she felt a restlessness inside, which she said was a calling to leave government and dive into mission work.
Casa David, the director of Hope Village, said the speaker of the night, Danny Nicholson, spoke straight to her soul and encouraged her to keep going in her efforts to help and transform the community.
“He was the best speaker I ever heard in my life,” David said. “It is so wonderful to see someone with so much passion working in our community to make it a better place.”
David said it was evident that Nicholson had a love for Christ and said it is what drives him to continue to do what he does. She said the church community would be going out helping set up tiny homes Saturday.
Charles Grant, said the weekend of hope is a tremendous thing and applauded Rev, Crawford for putting it together.
“I believe it will be a great thing for the church,” Grant said. “Going out into the community is what it is all about. We as the church need to go out and meet people. “
Grant said the church has a duty to go out into the community and spread the word.
“We cant stay behind these four walls,” Grant said. “We must get out.”
The House of Hope, Mercy Medicine, Lighthouse Ministries, Child Evangelism Fellowship, and the Pee Dee Girl’s Home were all honored at the dinner. The dinner served as the start to a three-day celebration of the Harvest Hope weekend. It was followed by a Saturday of various community projects around the city and it will end Sunday with a church service.

Sex addict who slept with 700 men reveals the night she hit rock bottom
A reformed sex addict who has slept with more than 700 men has revealed how she bottomed out when a partner turned violent during a terrifying encounter — and she now leads empowerment ‘boot camps’ to help others overcome their addiction.
Belinda ‘Love’ Rygier, a former Bachelor contestant, also confessed that her wild lifestyle strained her friendships because she would dump her friends on nights out so she could have casual sex — even trying to hook up with her local grocery store .
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, Ms Rygier said her addiction spiraled out of control came to a head when one of these men became abusive, but was later told she could not press charges because she had ‘scratched’ the man while she defended herself.
“When he pushed me down the stairs and locked me in the garage, I had a black eye and they thought my hand was broken,” she recalls that terrible night.
Reformed sex addict Belinda ‘Love’ Rygier (pictured), who has slept with more than 700 men, has revealed how she bottomed out when a partner turned violent during a terrifying encounter
“It was pretty bad. I went to work and they sent me home. The police came and they said that because he had a scratch on his arm from my ring, after I tried to get it off me, we could both go to jail for domestic violence,” she added.
Ms Rygier said the incident marked a turning point and encouraged her to let go of her emotions, along with her perception of love and sex.
This journey led her to launch her own healing boot campswhere she learns self-esteem and forms healthy, respectful relationships.
Ms Rygier, a former Bachelor contestant, said her wild lifestyle strained her friendships because she would dump her friends on nights out so she could have casual sex
‘That was my turning point. I thought, “I have to help myself.” That’s where the journey began, and it was a very rapid transformation. Once you decide [to change]it goes very fast.’
The TV star and sex educator began counseling and self-development to better understand the psychology behind her compulsive behavior.
“Having a coach who called me and held me accountable made me dig deep. I didn’t know I had sex addiction until I healed my trauma,” she said.
As she navigated the road to recovery, Ms. Rygier did some serious soul searching as she worked through her complicated childhood and evasive personality.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, Ms Rygier said her escalating addiction came to a head when one of her partners became abusive, but was later told she could not press charges because she had ‘scratched’ the man while she defended herself
Looking back on her years of active addiction, she confessed that sex was “constantly on my mind,” even when she was at the grocery store.
“I’d go grocery shopping and think to myself, ‘Oh, I wonder if he’d be interested?'” she said.
However, the majority of her conquests were men — and sometimes women — whom she would find in bars and nightclubs in the evenings.
Her tunnel vision sometimes upset her friends, as she “locked” them when going out as soon as she decided to hook up.
‘I was never self-conscious. The moment I was gone, I thought, “Where’s a hot guy?”
“Sex is the only addiction I fell for because it made me feel loved. Love is really what I was missing in my life.’

(Mrs. Rygier, front row, center, is pictured as a participant in The Bachelor Australia)
Looking back at how her life used to be, Ms. Rygier said one of her biggest regrets was being the “other woman in a relationship.”
She was “a mistress a few times” and found the idea of a man “willing to ruin his marriage to be with me” very exciting at the time.
“That’s something I’m not proud of,” she confessed, adding that these men usually left their wives “for other reasons” anyway.
“When things push you that hard, you’re willing to hurt other people. That was probably my low point,” she said of these cases.
Looking back at what her life used to be like, Ms Rygier (pictured on The Bachelor Australia) said one of her biggest regrets was being the “other woman in a relationship.”
A habit that Mrs. Rygier has observed in many people – and in sex addicts in particular – is the belief that love is a ‘competition’ or a ‘challenge’ that must be won.
This toxic attitude is one of the reasons she is so determined to continue her work for healing and recovery – despite the trolls and hate mail she receives as a woman openly talks about her sex addiction.
“The judgment, trolling, and hatred you get for being honest about the addiction is endless,” she said.
Her openness about her old life has encouraged men to send her lewd photos and solicit sex, and she often receives unsolicited messages detailing “really unusual fantasies.”
For those struggling with sex or porn addiction, Ms. Rygier said it’s crucial to understand your own flaws in character and relationship style.
“You have to heal the pain, love yourself, understand your attachment style and love language to heal,” she said of the classes she teaches at her boot camps.
“The transformations I get for clients are phenomenal,” she continued.
“They go from ‘nobody will ever love me, I’m unattractive’ to getting married and having kids within a year.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — A gold judicial collar made of glass beads that belonged to the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has sold at auction for $176,775.
The piece was part of a collection of about 75 items of Ginsburg’s that were sold to benefit charity. In total, bidders paid nearly $517,000 for items in the online auction which ended Friday. Sunday marks the two-year anniversary of the liberal icon’s death at 87.
The judicial collar was the item with the highest purchase price, and its sale marks the first time any of the late justice’s signature neckwear has been available for purchase. Her family donated some of the justices’ most well-known collars to the Smithsonian.
In addition to the collar, other items that were auctioned included: a gavel that sold for $20,400, a pair of Ginsburg’s opera glasses that sold for $10,837.50 and a shawl that sold for $12,750. A pair of her black lace gloves sold for $16,575 while a cream pair sold for $12,750.
The auction was conducted by Bonhams, which also conducted an online auction of her books in that brought in $2.3 million. In April, some 150 items — including art Ginsburg displayed in her home and office — raised more than $800,000 for Washington National Opera, one of the late justice’s passions.

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

School has started, and before we know it, the holidays won’t be far away! With the holidays come big dinners and parties. This makes September a great time to celebrate Food Safety Education Month and brush up on our food illness prevention tips before the holiday celebrations!
The key to preventing foodborne illness at home is to avoid cross-contamination. Separating raw meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs from ready-to-eat foods and cooked foods can help prevent illness.
Germs such as Campylobacter, Clostridium, Salmonella, and E. coli can spread from raw foods to ready-to-eat and cooked foods; these germs can make you sick and maybe even land you in the hospital if serious.
There are four easy steps that you can follow at home that can protect you and your loved ones from foodborne illness:
Clean: Wash your hands and surfaces often.
• Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and warm water before, during, and after preparing food and before eating.
o Always wash your hands after handling uncooked meat, poultry, seafood, flour, or eggs.
• Wash your utensils, cutting boards, and countertops with hot, soapy water after preparing each food item.
• Rinse fresh fruits and vegetables. Separate: Don’t cross-contaminate.
• Keep raw meat, poultry, seafood, and their juices away from other foods while grocery shopping.
• Keep raw or marinating meats, poultry, seafood, and eggs separate from other foods in the refrigerator.
• When storing raw meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs in the refrigerator, keep them in sealed containers or packages.
• Use separate cutting boards or plates for raw meat, poultry, and seafood. Use another cutting board or plate for produce, bread, and other foods that won’t be cooked.
• Do NOT wash raw meat, poultry, or eggs. This can actually spread germs!
Cook: Cook foods to the right temperature.
• Use a food thermometer to make sure that foods are cooked to a safe inside temperature that will kill the germs that make you sick.
o Whole cuts of beef, veal, lamb, and pork, including fresh ham: 145F.
o Fish with fins: 145F or cook until the flesh is opaque and separates easily with a fork.
o Ground meats, such as beef or pork: 160F.
o All poultry: 165F.
o Leftovers and casseroles: 165F.
Chill: Refrigerate promptly.
Germs can multiply fast if left at room temperature or in the “Danger Zone,” which is between 40F and 140F.
• Keep your refrigerator at or below 40F and your freezer at or below 0F.
o If your refrigerator doesn’t have a built-in thermometer, keep an appliance thermometer inside it to check the temperature.
• Package warm or hot foods into several clean, thin containers and then refrigerate.
• Refrigerate perishable foods within two hours; if the food is exposed to temperatures above 90F, then refrigerate within one hour.
• Thaw frozen foods safely in the refrigerator, cold water, or microwave. Never thaw food on the counter because this allows germs to spread!
This September, spread awareness, not germs! For more information on Food Safety Education Month, go to https://www.cdc.gov/foodsafety/educationmonth.html#:~:text=September%20is%20National%20Food%20Safety%20Education%20Month%20(FSEM).

Azul Linhas Aéreas received the first Airbus A350, the largest aircraft in the company’s fleet to date. On Friday the 16th, the company made the announcement of arrival.
Under the name “50 is also Blue”, the Airbus 350 departed from Tarbes, France, where it underwent the last scheduled maintenance tasks before being delivered to Confins airport, in Minas Gerais. This plane is the largest in the company’s fleet as it is capable of carrying 334 passengers.
In the coming weeks, the certification process to operate on commercial routes in Brazil will be completed. By the end of the year, the company should receive another plane of the same model. The plan is to replace two A330CEO aircraft that are in use.
“We are very happy to present this news to our customers, crew and partners,” said John Rodgerson, president of Azul, in a statement. “The Airbus A350 is one of the most modern aircraft in existence, which will bring much more comfort to our customers and more efficiency in terms of fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions, bringing a reduction in the cost per seat when compared to the A330CEO aircraft, which today do Azul’s long-haul flights”.
Currently, the company is the largest airline in Brazil in terms of number of flights and cities served. It operates 150 destinations with an operational fleet
of approximately 160 aircraft and more than 13,000 employees.

LONDON — Hundreds of thousands of mourners from across and beyond the United Kingdom are waiting more than 10 hours on foot for just a few precious seconds with the late Queen Elizabeth II — the only monarch most have ever known, and the last queen of England many are expecting to see in their lifetimes.
On Friday, the line — referred to in England as the queue — to see the queen lying in state at Westminster Hall hit five miles and had to be paused, as wait times stretched towards 24 hours. The separate accessible queue closed permanently the next day after reaching capacity.
The public had been promised long days, chilly nights and sore calves, but still showed up. More than a dozen devotees NPR spoke to in line and at the hall's exit all agreed that the experience, however draining, was well worth it.
"It's been really strange actually, because if you tell a Brit that they're going to be queuing for that long, they'd rather say 'Why?'" laughs military veteran Chris Jay, about 10 and a half hours into her wait. "But obviously the queen [is] such an important part to many people in the U.K. and especially those that have been in the armed forces and served and given the oath of allegiance to the queen. I just felt compelled to come down here."
Some people came from other parts of the U.K. and Europe, others traveled from places as far away as Canada and the U.S. Their precise motivations and feelings about the monarchy varied, but they shared much in common: appreciation for the queen's dedication, eagerness to participate in history and a mix of uncertainty and optimism about the future of the monarchy under King Charles III.
"Everyone was in really high spirits," said Ashleigh Harvey as she finally exited the hall after about 13 hours. "I think so many people were honored to be here for however long it was going to take in the queue, and everyone had accepted that and was more than happy to wait as long as it took just to pay our respects."
The mood was mournful but also joyful, as people gathered together to celebrate the queen. Some dressed for the occasion, like the rugby coach wearing a Union Jack button-up vest and the history buff dressed as a 17th-century royalist, cloak and all. And despite the reported safety issues and crowding concerns, many line-goers bonded with their neighbors and described the shared sense of community as a highlight of their experience.
"I've made friends in this queue — we've exchanged numbers, we've shared food ... there's a group of us who will meet up after this," says 54-year-old Teresa Bhatti. "We've enjoyed every single second of it."
By contrast, the atmosphere inside Westminster Hall was quiet, serene and reverent, people said. That part of the line went by much faster, with less time to process the inevitable flood of emotions. And at least one woman could be seen wiping tears away as she exited the gates.
Ying Shum and Joe Yuen, who moved to the U.K. several months ago, said they were touched by the experience.
"Very meaningful, especially [because] we are from Hong Kong," Shum said. "And I think most of the people who came here are willing to spend 10 hours, 20 hours — doesn't matter, because the queen has already spent 70 years for her service."
The moment is historic but also personal
People praised the queen for her contributions to the country, particularly for doing her duty for so many years and for being a reliable and reassuring presence in both good and bad times.
She has been a feature of millions of peoples' lives, from bank notes to military medals, explains Bryan Hunt, a civil servant in the Home Office who has been volunteering on the line.
Hunt says he briefly met the queen at a garden party several years ago — he vividly remembers how special she made him feel, as well as "her piercing blue eyes and how tiny she was."
Sandra Napier, who decided to join the line while on a pre-planned visit from Northern Ireland, said the queen wasn't only beloved at home but around the world as an ambassador. She was especially moved by the queen's 2012 trip to Northern Ireland, when she shook hands with former IRA commander Martin McGuinness in what Napier described as a significant gesture of reconciliation and peacemaking — something she said the world still needs.
"The world is in a bit of a precarious situation post-COVID, economically, Ukraine-wise, and I think this has really given people a positive focus and coming together," she says of the event.
Some people said they braved the long hours because they wanted to participate in an event that will be remembered for generations to come. Everyone had their reasons, and for some, it was largely emotion.
"I just feel as though I need to be here for her," Bhatti said.
People will miss the queen, but are optimistic about her successor
It's hard for people to imagine England without a queen, now and for the foreseeable future. Many described King Charles III as having large shoes to fill, but say they're reassured that he's been preparing for this responsibility for decades.
Rosie Beddows, who was in line with her husband and son, says she thinks that with Camilla by his side, Charles will take the country forward in a perhaps more environmentally friendly manner. And she thinks William and Kate will make a "stunning" prince and princess of Wales and future leaders.
"I think the monarchy is in a very strong position, and if you just look at this queue, this is what monarchy means to the British public," she says, a comment echoed by many others.
Of course, not all Britons support the institution, which (especially younger) people see as antiquated and colonialist.
Heather Labanya, who is half Zambian, acknowledges there are a lot of views of the monarchy in the U.K. and says she has personally worked to separate the queen from the institution that she represented.
In particular, she mentioned that independence fighters, including the first president of Zambia — a former British colony — had respect for the queen and her role in its democratization.
"I think I've always felt able to hold the understanding of all these composite parts," she adds, "But the way my parents also raised me was to try to look forward and continue to hold that rich history that we do have as a family, as a culture, with a forward looking at how can we rebuild a future that includes everybody."

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Alabama scored on a long touchdown pass, a pick-six and a blocked punt.
And that was just the first six minutes.
Bryce Young passed for three touchdowns and rushed for a fourth, Will Anderson Jr. scored on an interception return and No. 2 Alabama rolled to a 63-7 victory over Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday.
The Crimson Tide (3-0) scored on offense, defense and special teams in the first six minutes and raced to a 28-0 first-quarter lead. It was a whirlwind start against the 49 1/2-point underdog Warhawks (1-2) a week after a much closer-than-expected victory over Texas cost Alabama the No. 1 ranking.
Afterward, Tide coach Nick Saban challenged the team to play to the program’s always lofty standard more consistently.
“There’s some evidence out there that this is the standard we want to play to,” Saban said, noting that the competition gets tougher with Southeastern Conference play upcoming.
It wasn’t a seamless performance throughout for either the Tide offense or Young, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner. But special teams came through, including a school-record for punt return yards.
Young completed 13 of 18 passes for 236 yards but also threw his first two interceptions of the season. He did run for a 7-yard score, where he spun near the goal line and dove across.
Anderson returned his first career interception 25 yards for a touchdown, one play after Young’s initial pick. The national sacks leader a year ago, he also got his second sack of the season.
“What can’t he do?” cornerback/return man Kool-Aid McKinstry said.
“He was probably surprised he caught it, I ain't gonna lie,” linebacker Henry To'oTo'o said. “He had a little stiff-arm and he was just watching it when they did the highlights on the board. And he was like, ‘I can’t believe I did that.'”
Malachi Moore got a short scoop-and-score after Ja’Corey Brooks’ blocked punt.
Chandler Rogers completed 11 of 21 passes 96 yards for Louisiana-Monroe and was intercepted once. Malik Jackson ran for an 11-yard touchdown, set up by the Tide’s failed fourth-down attempt.
“It went like most people thought it would go,” Louisiana-Monroe coach Terry Bowden said. "They were just too good for us in every phase of the game. You could watch the video and say that’s kind of what you’re stepping into, but you still prepare for them not to play well or something to go wrong. And you have a better game.
“And as I talked to the team afterwards, they were so good in every phase.”
Jahmyr Gibbs remained the Tide’s most versatile weapon. He gained 36 yards on nine carries and caught four passes for 65 yards, including a 37-yard touchdown when he juked one defender and shed a couple of downfield tackle attempts.
The Tide outgained Louisiana-Monroe 509-169.
THE TAKEAWAY
Louisiana-Monroe: Managed to keep a horrid start from snowballing even more for awhile and actually was only outgained 132-125 before Alabama’s final drive of the second half. Bowden is now 3-4 against the Tide, with the first six meetings as coach of rival Auburn from 1993-98.
Alabama: This one won’t mean much in the big picture for Alabama’s season, but it started out as a nice, swift rebound from the Texas game. The Tide did have a lull before a pristine Young-directed TD drive in the final two minutes before the half.
LONG RETURNS
Alabama had 262 punt return yards to break a 75-year-old game record set against LSU in 1947. McKinstry flirted with scores on returns and Brian Branch produced one in the fourth quarter. McKinstry averaged 34 yards on his first four returns. Then Branch returned a punt 68 yards for a TD. Gibbs also had a 57-yard kick return.
“The blockers did their job and I can’t do anything but give them thanks for creating the lanes for me to take,” McKinstry said.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
There's no chance Alabama will overtake No. 1 Georgia on Sunday after the Bulldogs beat South Carolina 48-7. Chances are the Tide will stay put.
TIGHT ENDS
Alabama’s receivers, for the most part, are having quiet seasons. The tight ends, however, came up big on the final first-half drive. Cameron Latu had three catches, including a 38-yarder when he reached over a defender downfield. Freshman reserve Amari Niblack then caught his first pass, a 15-yard TD.
UP NEXT
Alabama hosts Vanderbilt in the Southeastern Conference opener.
Louisiana-Monroe hosts Louisiana.

California woman ordered to apologize, pay $9,000 for telling daughter to hit opponent at youth basketball game
A California woman charged with misdemeanors for encouraging her daughter to attack an opponent at a youth basketball tournament last year has been ordered to apologize and pay more than $9,000 in restitution.
The incident, which was caught on video, occurred during a game between the SoCal Blaze and Dream Academy teams at the MAP Sports Facility in Garden Grove on Nov. 7.
The attacker, who played for Dream Academy, fell backwards onto SoCal Blaze’s Lauryn Ham after attempting a three-pointer in the last few minutes of the game. After both players got up and walked across the court, the attacker’s mother, identified as Latira Shonty Hunt, allegedly yelled, “You better hit her for that!”
Hunt’s daughter then swung at Lauryn’s head, causing her to fall down. The 15-year-old suffered a concussion and a bruised neck and was rushed to a treatment facility.

“I don’t believe the child should be allowed to play basketball for the foreseeable future until she can get help. The mother should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for inciting violence,” Lauryn’s mother, Alice, told NextShark.
The attacker, who is also a minor, has not been identified. Instead, Hunt, 44, was charged with one misdemeanor count of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and one misdemeanor count of battery.

“It is unconscionable that a parent would encourage her child to engage in violence during a sporting event,” Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer said at the time. “Youth sports are invaluable in teaching our children discipline, teamwork, and sportsmanship. But a win at all costs mentality that is completely devoid of fair play, respect, and civility is disgusting. We as parents have the fundamental responsibility to raise our children to be good human beings who treat others with kindness and humanity.”
Hunt was facing up to a year in jail, but on Wednesday, a county superior court judge granted her misdemeanor diversion under the condition that several requirements are fulfilled in the next two years, according to NBC News.
Those requirements include writing an apology letter to Lauryn, her family and both basketball teams. Additionally, she must pay over $9,000 in restitution, stay away from Lauryn and complete anger management classes before she can watch games again.

“A grown adult directing a child to use violence against another child on the basketball court is reprehensible,” Spitzer said in a new statement. “By instructing her own daughter to engage in violence, she is not only responsible for injuring an innocent child as if she punched her with her own fist, but she transformed her own child into someone who is willing to hurt another child.”
The attacker’s father, identified as former NBA player Corey Benjamin, released an apology in the aftermath of the incident.
“To the young lady who was punched by my daughter during a youth basketball game, I sincerely apologize to you and I am praying for your complete healing both physically and emotionally,” Benjamin said, as per the Associated Press. “To her family, I deeply apologize and regret that this happened to your daughter as she did not deserve this to happen to her. Finally, I apologize to all of those who have been impacted and hurt by the actions of my daughter as well as those of her mother.”

Canada's Month-By-Month Winter Forecast Just Dropped — Here's What Quebec Can Expect
Winter is coming! ⛄
Enjoy the nice weather while you still can, Montreal 'cause winter is just around the corner. The Old Farmer's Almanac has shared another long-range Canadian winter forecast and this time we have a month-by-month version with predictions for each province.
Overall, it looks like Canada is in for a cold and snowy winter — no surprise there, right? Most Canadians can expect a typical chilled season with “sneaky cold" periods, "icebox conditions" and "several major snowstorms."
"Winter will arrive early, with cold temperatures dropping down from the Yukon and northern Alberta to settle in across the Prairies and into southern Ontario and southwest Quebec," the Old Farmer's Almanac predicts.
In la belle province specifically, November should be mild at the beginning with some rain and several snowy showers. In the last week of the month, the first snowstorm should arrive, and temperatures are expected to drop dramatically.
Another snowstorm is forecasted for Quebec during the first week of December where "frigid" conditions are being anticipated. After some lovely days of sunshine and mild temperatures, a third snowstorm will hit the province, followed by, you guessed it, more rain and snow.
Around Christmas and New Year's, Quebec is expected to get glacial temperatures and flurries. For the month of January, Quebecers can expect a roller coaster of weather as conditions will alternate between mild temperatures and snowy, icy-cold days.
Throughout February, the Old Farmer's Almanac is calling for snowy showers and flurries every week with a bout of rain and mild temps for the remainder of the month.
So, are you ready for winter?

Veterans committing suicide at rate 2 times higher than VA data shows: study
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
This story discusses suicide. If you or someone you know is having thoughts of suicide, please contact the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988 or 1-800-273-TALK (8255).
A veteran’s group aimed at reducing the number of veteran suicides has released a study showing that the suicide rate among veterans is over 30% higher than reported by the Department of Veterans Affairs and that states are undercounting veteran deaths at a combined error rate of 25%.
A study dubbed Operation Deep Dive from the veterans group America’s Warrior Partnership showed a 37% greater suicide rate among former service members than reported by VA from 2014-2018.
“The difference in the data is likely due to undercounting of FSMs (former service members) deaths and the greater specificity of the decedent’s demographics, military experience, and death details available to Operation Deep Dive,” the study explains.
NORTH CAROLINA MURDER-SUICIDE OF ARMY VET, WIFE LEAVES QUIET COMMUNITY HEARTBROKEN
The more specific criteria in this study’s methodology were gathered from two sets of data, one from a collection of eight states and one from the Department of Defense.
LOCAL INDIANA ORGANIZATION HELPING TO STEM TIDE OF VETERAN SUICIDES WITH COMMUNITY-BUILDING
The state dataset was gathered from Alabama, Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, and Oregon from 2014-2018. The information used included demographics such as Social Security numbers, gender, age, marital status, race, state reported veteran status, date of death, manner of death, and other factors.
The Department of Defense dataset contained an active duty military personnel file, a personnel transaction file, and a reserve component data file.
HEROES OF KABUL: ‘ALL GOOD HERE,’ STAFF SGT. RYAN KNAUSS WROTE IN LAST MESSAGE TO MOM
“If these eight states collectively represented the national rate, the combined death rate would be at least 44 FSMs per day which is 2.4 times higher than the VA suicide rate,” the study said.
“What we found is across the nation with the states is that they undercount veteran deaths by about 18%, which means someone who served in the military is not annotated as having served in the military 18% of the time,” Jim Lorraine, President of America’s Warrior Partnership and United States Air Force veteran of 22 years, told Fox News Digital. “Inversely, the communities are counting people who never served in the military as service members 7% of the time so that’s a combined error rate of 25%.”
The study also found that the probability of a veteran taking his or her own life decreased by 2% for every year that a veteran served and those who served in the military for less than three years are at the greatest risk for suicide.
Additionally, veterans who received a demotion during their service had a 56% increase in their odds of dying from suicide.
ANDRE RUSH, ARMY VETERAN AND CELEBRITY CHEF, BRINGS FRESH AWARENESS TO PTSD, SUICIDE PREVENTION
Lorraine told Fox News Digital that he hopes the Department of Veterans Affairs will analyze data at a more local level and incorporate more data related to self injury mortality, and overdose deaths, both accidental and intentional.
“Overdose rates and suicide rates among those who serve in the military is anywhere from 2 to 3 times greater than in the civilian population,” Lorraine said. “We don’t know why and we need to figure out why veterans are taking their lives like this.”
A staggering 30,177 American active military personnel and veterans involved in post-9/11 wars are estimated to have died by suicide – a figure at least four times greater than the 7,057 service members who were killed in combat during that time, a research paper published last year determined.
COMBAT VETERAN AND HIS WIFE HELP OTHERS FIGHT PTSD — AND FIND HEALING AND HOPE
“The purpose of VA’s National Suicide Prevention report is to count every Veteran suicide so we can prevent every Veteran suicide,” the Department of Veterans Affairs told Fox News Digital in a statement. “Ending Veteran suicide and saving lives is our top clinical priority at VA, and we take every step possible to make sure that our Veteran suicide data is accurate–because the first step to solving this problem is understanding it.”
The statement continued, “Our methodology for creating this report is well-established and consistent, based on verified data from the CDC and DoD, and meets the quality and standards of a peer-reviewed publication. In the interest of full transparency, we release yearly reports detailing how we come to the conclusions in the Annual Suicide Prevention Report. The bottom line is this: One Veteran suicide is one too many, and VA will continue to accurately measure Veteran suicide so we can end Veteran suicide.”

Lorraine told Fox News Digital he hopes to work with the VA on ways to better track and analyze data sets across the country and fill in any gaps.
“I think if we stay together, we can do better,” Lorraine said. “We can always do better preventing suicide and self injury mortality. I would welcome the VA to participate in our study and share data and then work with us on it and identify better prevention measures. We don’t see the study as America’s Warrior Partnership we see the study as our nation and it belongs to our people, it belongs to the states, it belongs to the VA, we want to bring everybody to the table.”

NEW YORK, Sept. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Enochian BioSciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENOB) between January 17, 2018 and June 27, 2022, both dates inclusive, (the "Class Period"), including common stock issued by Enochian in a private placement offering on or about February 16, 2018, of the important September 26, 2022 lead plaintiff deadline.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Enochian BioSciences securities during the Class Period 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 Enochian BioSciences class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=6517 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 September 26, 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, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) co-founder and inventor, Serhat Gumrukcu, was engaged in a variety of frauds; (2) Gumrukcu was not a licensed doctor anywhere in the world; (3) as a result of the foregoing, Gumrukcu's purported contributions to Enochian lacked a reasonable basis; (4) as a result of the foregoing, Enochian had overstated its commercial prospects; (5) Gumrukcu had improperly diverted approximately $20 million from Enochian to entities he owned; and (6) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements about Enochian's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
To join the Enochian BioSciences class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=6517 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.

Amidst wildfire season, temperatures continue to rise with increasing frequency as fires burn bigger, brighter, and hotter while climate change happens around the world. As a result, research and predictions tell us that by the end of this century wildfire activity will be doubled. As a part of the Fire & Ice Series, Wildsight presents The Future of Fire with renowned author, educator, and public speaker Ed Struzik, at the Columbia Valley Centre on Sept. 17 at 7 p.m.
Struzik will talk about his book Dark Days at Noon: The Future of Fire. He’ll discuss the many mistakes that have been made in the managing of fire in the past and what can be done better going forward to mitigate the damage, and how to use fire in some cases, to our advantage. Struzik is no stranger to bearing witness to this damage first-hand.
“I have seen many forest fires from a distance on canoe and hiking trips. One fire that stood out was one that burned a good part of Kootenay National Park in 2003, just a few weeks before 45,000 people in the Okanagan were forced to evacuate because of another fire,” said Struzik. “I got a chance to get up close to that one in Kootenay with firefighters and fire specialists from Parks Canada. I had never seen anything like it. It was like a slow-moving freight train that almost made it into Banff where the old-growth forest went on forever. The town of Banff may have burned down in the height of the tourism season if the fire had spread into Banff. At times, the fire had its own mind, doing whatever it wanted to do, passing through natural fireguards without even slowing down.
“I remember Rob Walker, the fire and vegetation specialist for Parks Canada, telling me that this fire was a harbinger of future fires in a warming world. He was right, of course. But many people didn’t get it at the time. And still don’t.”
Events for Wildsight’s Fire & Ice series were designed with our community and geography in mind. Struzik’s eighth book Dark Days at Noon: The Future of Fire was a perfect fit.
“The book and its message are very relevant to the Columbia Valley,” said Lianna Ferguson, program co-ordinator at Wildsight Invermere. “This valley is no stranger to wildfires. As the book synopsis says, as people continue to move into forested landscapes to work, play, live, and ignite fires – intentionally or unintentionally – fire has begun to take its toll, burning entire towns, knocking out utilities, closing roads, and forcing the evacuation of hundreds of thousands of people.”
Conducting the research for Dark Days at Noon was not for the faint of heart. Part of it entailed Struzik reading thousands of newspaper articles that had been published between 1870 and 2021. There have been many accounts of destruction and the displacement of people across the U.S. and Canada from 1870 to the early 1900s, including a forest fire that burned down the town of Fernie in 1908, which hits a little closer to home.
“I was surprised by the large number of fires that burned so many towns and killed so many people on both sides of the border. I was amazed that many of these very destructive fires never made it into the history books,” said Struzik. “Deadly fires were a lot more common than I imagined. I wondered why and this is what I try to explain it in the book.”
Dark Days at Noon warns of what may happen in the future if we do not learn to live with fire as the continent’s Indigenous Peoples once did. Struzik writes an entire chapter that deals with Indigenous burning.
“Interestingly, it was David Thompson who first recognized that indigenous people burned so that new grass would grow and attract bison, and that root vegetables and berries thrived after a burn,” said Struzik. “Europeans refused to see the value in this light burning. They ended up kicking Indigenous people out of national parks and protected areas partly for that reason. The threat of severe deadly fires will grow as temperatures continue to rise. It’s simple. The good news is that there are a lot of things that we can do about. I’ll be talking about that in Invermere.”
The issues that multi award-winning author Struzik will be discussing are relevant to all residents that live on the unceded territories of the Secwépemc and Ktunaxa peoples and the land chosen as home by the Métis peoples in the Columbia Valley. Tickets for this event are $20 in advance or $25 at the door. To purchase your advance tickets visit wildsight.ca . For those that haven’t yet read the book, Four Points Books will be selling copies of it at the event on Sept. 17 with a book signing to follow.
“Our hope is that residents lean into this conversation instead of shy away,” said Ferguson. “Fire is going to be a yearly event as fire is a necessary part of our landscape. Due to mismanagement of our forests thus far, paired with a changing climate, it is important that we learn to live with it. We hope the more information and understanding people have about fire, the better they can prepare, and hopefully live with less fear.”

F.P. Report
TORONTO: Voting for Khalistan Referendum is being held in the Canadian city of Toronto, from today (Sunday), aimed at seeking independence of Punjab from India through a peaceful manner.
President of Council of Khalistan Dr Bekhshi Singh in an interview, said people of Indian Punjab have understood that their rights can only be safeguarded through getting independence. He said as an expression of their opinion they will participate in this referendum in a large number.
He said, “During last 75 years, we have learnt that not a single Indian government is concerned about the rights of Sikhs.” Dr Bekhshi Singh said it is the law of the United Nations that colonized nations can get their rights through referendum. He also slammed the Indian government for illegal detention of Khalistan movement leaders.
Khalistan Referendum Voting Centre in Toronto is named after, martyred Harjinder Singh Pahra, to honor the young pro-Khalistan Sikh who went back to India from Canada to participate in the then ongoing armed struggle for Khalistan in the wake of the Indian Army’s June 1984 attack on the Golden Temple. In a staged police encounter, Indian forces extra-judicially killed Pahra in 1988.
Khalistan Referendum voting will be held in phases in Canada in which polling will take place across the country including Ottawa, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver and Surrey. The voting in the global Khalistan Referendum is being held under the supervision of the Punjab Referendum Commission (PRC), www.punjabreferendumcommission.org, a panel of world-renowned non-aligned experts on independence referendums and direct democracy.
Since the launch of the voting on October 31, 2021, from London, despite India’s protests, the governments in UK, Switzerland, and Italy have allowed the Khalistan Referendum to take place in which more than 400,000 Sikhs have voted, so far. (INP)

Golden State Warriors fans are living a dichotomy: they are enjoying a dream in which their team has practically tyrannized the NBA, but they are also at risk of waking up abruptly. To this end, many of their joys, but especially their hopes rest on their great star, Stephen Curry.
The Human Torch has been laying the foundations to be considered one of the greatest players in the NBA at least in the last five years. With the success he has brought to the Warriors, Curry has earned the right to eat at the same table as LeBron James, for example.
Thus, Stephen Curry has on his shoulders a great responsibility to the Golden State franchise and to the fans who love the team. His ability on the court is a fact that is the main competitive argument of Golden State, but how much weight does his voice weigh in the decisions made by the Front Office of the team?
Stephen Curry's influence on the Golden State Warriors off the court
According to information from Heavy's Sean Deveney (via Fade Away World), an NBA executive reportedly took the time to address the issue of how Stephen Curry's opinions and ideas influence the Golden State Warriors Front Office when making team decisions.
“Steph terrifies them in that front office. I mean, within reason. Steph wanted Avery Bradley last year but they wanted Gary Payton II. They did not listen to him and there was no problem with that. I think Steph likes to have a voice but does not get caught up in dictating moves.", said a Western Conference NBA Executive to Deveney.
It's a very special thing to have a legend the size of Stephen Curry is today for the Golden State Warriors, and the Front Office is clear about that. When your best player points something out, you have to consider it. In the end, it is with Curry at the helm that the franchise has delivered the most joy to its fans in its history.

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Shedeur Sanders accounted for four touchdowns and Jackson State rolled to a 66-24 rout of Grambling on Saturday.
It was Jackson State's 12th-straight win against Southwestern Athletic Conference opponents.
Sanders connected with Dallas Daniels on a pair of touchdown passes as Jackson State (3-0, 2-0) scored touchdowns on three of its first four possessions and led 21-17 at the break. The Tigers opened the second half with a kickoff return for a touchdown, a field goal and two more touchdowns to stretch their lead to 45-17 late in the third quarter. Sanders' 15-yard touchdown run capped the surge.
Sanders threw nearly 50 yards and caught Willie Gaines in stride for an 86-yard touchdown pass to open the fourth. Sy’veon Wilkerson added more than 100 yards rushing and two scoring runs for the Tigers.
No. 11 Jackson State, which entered with one of the top-ranked defenses in the FCS, gave up its first touchdown of the season when Maurice Washington scored on a 73-yard run for Grambling at the end of the first quarter.

2019 Real Men Cook Judges' Choice winners Durdu Fidikci, left, and Umut Ozkan of Silk Road Transportation celebrate their title in the Entree-Meat category with their Turkish meatballs.
Attendees line up for the 2019 Real Men Cook fundraising event held at Monty and Pat Roberts' Flag Is Up Farms in Solvang. All proceeds benefit Santa Ynez Valley Arts Outreach.
2019 Real Men Cook Judges' Choice winners Durdu Fidikci, left, and Umut Ozkan of Silk Road Transportation celebrate their title in the Entree-Meat category with their Turkish meatballs.
Because not just men can cook, Arts Outreach’s long-running annual fundraiser is opening up the kitchen to all chefs willing to take the heat once the judging begins.
The former 'Real Men Cook' event that over the years has invited male amateur chefs to prepare dishes and desserts to be served to crowds of attendees for the judging, will this year feature "anyone who wants to be a chef," according to Sandie Mullin, executive director of Arts Outreach.
"Real Men Cook has been a much beloved event for over 25 years, but we decided that we didn’t want the men to have all the fun so we’re opening up the 'competition' to anyone who wants to be a chef," Mullin explained.
The event — now rebranded as "The Great Valley Cook-off" — is slated to take place on Saturday, Oct. 22, from 6 to 9:30 p.m., and will feature a silent auction and music by local rock band LiveWire.
Another notable change is the venue.
According to Mullin, Flag Is Up Farms will not play host this year, but guests will instead gather at Kalyra Winery in Santa Ynez among the "beautiful vines."
Other than the name and location, Mullin said it should be the same great event for a great cause. Funds raised by the Los Olivos-based nonprofit go to support arts education programs for local schoolchildren and senior citizens.
Sure to stay the same during what Mullin refers to as the Valley’s “party of the year,” is the plentiful food and drink.
Attendees will be invited to fill their plates with culinary creations prepared by more than 50 male and female amateur chefs, and round out their palates with generous tastings of craft brews and wine vintages from as many as 35 different vendors.
Real Men Cook 2019 set record attendance with over 400 guests and was notably one of their most successful events ever, according to Mullin. It was also the last fundraiser held by Arts Outreach after they were forced to cancel the 2020 and 2021 events due to the pandemic.
While this year marks an exciting return after two long years, according to Mullin, it also leaves open the chance for a new winner to arise and claim the grand prize — the coveted paper chef's hat.

The money fight in the campaign for governor has moved into the heavyweight division as the race approaches the Nov. 8 election.
On Monday, Republicans threw a surprise financial right-hook, the party's governor's association punching $1 million in new cash to GOP nominee, Christine Drazan.
On Thursday, Democrats answered with a left smash as their national governor's association jabbed $1.2 million in cash into the campaign bankroll of governor nominee Tina Kotek.
For those keeping score, the Democratic governors have given Kotek a total of over $3.1 million so far. The Republican governors have kicked in over $2.5 million to Drazan so far.
The question now is if Nike founder Phil Knight will answer with a bankroll uppercut of his own to keep non-affiliated candidate Betsy Johnson ahead of the competition for cash. He's given $1.75 million to date, but his last contribution was in late April.
Counting the cash stashes
As of Saturday afternoon, the increasingly staggering sums in the governor's race had reached a total of over $31.2 million in contributions, according to records filed with the Oregon Secretary of State Elections Division.
Having three major candidates in the race puts 2022 on a pace to easily eclipse the record $40 million in spending set in 2018, when incumbent Democrat Gov. Kate Brown defeated Republican Knute Buehler, the former state representative from Bend.
The totals so far:
• Kotek: $10.46 million raised since the beginning of last year and $7.99 million spent. The Democrat has nearly $2.48 million in the bank.
• Drazan: $9.24 million raised and $6.94 million spent. The Republican has $2.38 million in the bank.
• Johnson: $11.5 million raised and $9.5 million spent, with $2.55 million in the bank.
At first glance, it would appear the trio are about tied in funds they have to spend between now and the end of voting — but with one big caveat.
Johnson is using the maximum legal period of 30 days to file campaign transactions. Drazan and Kotek are reporting more rapidly — usually in under one week.
All of that changes Sept. 27. That's the date the Secretary of State will require campaign contributions and spending be reported within seven days.
That's also the evening when the three major candidates will have the next debate at Oregon State University-Cascades in Bend.
But the reality is the campaign window is much closer to closing.
It's one month until the Oct. 18 deadline to register to vote.
Ballots will be mailed to in-state voters beginning Oct. 19.
Campaigns have one month to reach all voters. After ballots arrive, they will begin to be marked and returned.
Oregon's vote-by-mail system means each passing day after that, the number of voters who can influence the election will decline.
Key forecaster calls race "a toss-up"
The flurry of funds comes against the backdrop of the unique three-way race that has upended the usual dynamics of Oregon elections for governor.
Republicans last won the governorship in 1982, when Gov. Vic Atiyeh won re-election. Since 1986, Democrats have won the state's top executive position.
Oregon is a small state with little accurate and non-partisan political polling that meets a reliable standard. That has made top political forecasters in Washington, D.C. a key barometer of how the governor's race is unfolding.
Last last week, Cook Political Report, moved its rating of the Oregon race from "leaning Democratic" to "toss-up."
Jessica Taylor, The Cook Political Report analyst for governor's races, said Johnson's successful petition drive to put her on the ballot with Kotek and Drazan meant Democrats' 40-year lock on the governor's job was questionable.
"No race for governor has been more surprising than Oregon," wrote Taylor.
With Gov. Kate Brown unable to run again because of term limits, the 2022 election would be the first time since 2002 that no incumbent or former Oregon governor would be on the ballot.
The Democratic primary drew 15 candidates, with Kotek winning a clear mandate with 56% of the vote
Republicans field 19 primary candidates, with Drazan emerging from the splintered field with 22.5% of the vote as the GOP nominee.
Kotek has been the frontrunner from the start of the campaign season last year.
The outlines of the race began to shift last autumn with Johnson, a longtime moderate Democratic state senator, announcing she would leave the Senate and the Democratic Party to run for governor without a party affiliation.
Oregon has elected one independent governor — Julius Meier in 1930.
The mix became even cloudier when Drazan won 22.5% of the Republican primary. In a field that featured several strong backers of former President Donald Trump running as outsiders, Drazan was a Republican legislative leader who had rejected Trump's claims that the 2022 election had been stolen by Democrat Joe Biden.
Drazan follows the GOP line as an anti-abortion, anti-gun control, pro-business candidate. But as a woman lawmaker representing the key Portland suburbs of Clackamas County, Drazan, she was an outlier among the possible Republican standard-bearers in Oregon for 2022.
The Cook Political Report wrote that national GOP leaders had planned to make a big push for governors seats in "Rust Belt" states like Pennsylvania and Michigan. But the results of the closed Republican primaries left the party "saddled with weak and cash-poor candidates" with questionable chances in a general election.
Searching for other options, the emergence of Drazan and the three-way race in Oregon became a target.
While Drazan's stances on key issues doesn't match up with majorities in Oregon public polls on issues like abortion and guns, the three-way race offered a difficult if plausible path to victory, The Cook Political Report forecasts have shown.
For national GOP leaders, her credibility as someone who wants to change politics from the inside instead of run as an outside agitator might appeal to the third of voters who are not members of any political party.
Put together, it encouraged the national GOP to switch its strategy into a big push for an upset in Oregon.
The result, the Cook Political Report says, is that Kotek and Drazan are "neck-and-neck," Taylor wrote.
Taylor said voters were moving toward Drazan as the stronger candidate who was not Tina Kotek.
"Former state Sen. Betsy Johnson — a bespectacled former Democrat-turned-independent — threatens to act as a spoiler," Taylor wrote. "There’s a clear trend of both Kotek and Drazan polling in the low 30s."
Johnson, Taylor wrote, hasn't been able to displace Drazan as the alternative to the Democratic hold on the state's top job.
Like other forecasters at the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia and at FiveThirtyEight.com, the winner of the election in November may need to only break the 40% mark to win a plurality.

MUMBAI: In an unusual and conditional order, the Bombay HC permitted a woman to medically terminate her 26 weeks pregnancy only if the doctors confirm that the baby may not be born alive after the procedure.
“In case the doctors are of the opinion that the baby may not be born alive at the time of terminating pregnancy, the petitioner is permitted to terminate the pregnancy,” the bench directed on Friday.
The woman (21) had moved the HC as her case does not fall under categories of women eligible under MTP (Amendment), 2021, from 20 to 24 weeks. Her pregnancy was a result of a consensual act and due to failure of a contraceptive device.
The JJ Hospital medical board’s September 8 report said there was no abnormality in the fetus or in her. It said pregnancy was 27 weeks and termination at “this stage will result in a pre-term viable baby requiring intensive care management.”
On September 13, the HC directed the board to re-examine her on the length of pregnancy, noticing a discrepancy between the sonography report and its opinion.
Its September 15 report said she was 25.4 weeks pregnant and reiterated the opinion.
But the woman’s advocate Aditi Saxena referred to an explanation to the section (of MTP Act) permitting termination where the pregnancy is due to failure of contraceptive device or method. She argued that the board was expected to opine only to the extent of anguish caused to the woman by such pregnancy and no more.
Justices Sanjay Gangapurwala and RM Laddha said they would certainly, without any hesitation, permit MTP as it is on account of failure of a contraceptive device and though the prayer is made by an unwed mother and is a result of consensual act. They added that they “are only concerned” with the board’s opinion that it would result in a pre-term viable baby.
“The baby born will have to be taken care of and it should not happen that the baby is born with some deformity due to premature termination of pregnancy,” they added.
The judges said if it is not a case where the baby is born alive, then there is no problem in allowing MTP. “We understand the trauma that the petitioner, an unwed mother, would undergo. At the same time, it cannot be lost sight of an alive baby being born and the consequences it would have on the baby if it is prematurely terminated,” they concluded, and passed the order.

Henry Cejudo is in the process of making his UFC return with no updates on possible opponents. Now that he's back negotiating, 'Triple C' seems interested in improving communication with the UFC president, Hunter Campbell, Sean Shelby, and Mick Maynard.
Chael Sonnen came to the rescue during a recent conversation posted on Cejudo's YouTube channel and had this to say about impressing Dana White:
"I will tell you, there's two moves that he [Dana White] respects. This will get you a long way - A handwritten letter. Has to be handwritten, don't type it out. Has to be a handwritten letter. And the other one that he respects is that you show up to his office and you don't have a meeting, and you refuse to leave... You might have to spend the day there, but you'll get that meeting before he leaves."
Sometimes it's impossible to tell when Sonnen is joking or not. That said, the UFC president seems to be on a different page than Cejudo since 'Triple C' announced his return. Both the opponent and weight division still haven't been finalized.
Watch Chael Sonnen offer Henry Cejudo tips on impressing Dana White below:
Henry Cejudo describes to Chael Sonnen how Jake Paul could beat Anderson Silva
'The Problem Child' and 'The Spider' are officially fighting in a boxing match on October 29. Fans and analysts are split on the matchup due to Silva's age and Paul's lack of experience. During the same interaction with Sonnen, Cejudo had this to regarding Paul's potential path to victory:
"The only thing that I see with Anderson Silva, where he could get caught, and we see this a lot - Anderson Silva likes to play. He'll give his chin, and there's one thing that the youngster does have, and that's power in that right hand."
Watch Henry Cejudo describe Jake Paul's path to victory to Chael Sonnen below:
Not many people know what to expect from 'The Spider', but his recent boxing win over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. was highly impressive. It could be indicative of what the former UFC champion can do against 'The Problem Child'.

Biden approval rises sharply ahead of midterms: AP-NORC poll
President Joe Biden’s popularity improved substantially from his lowest point this summer, but concerns about his handling of the economy persist, according to a poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
Support for Biden recovered from a low of 36% in July to 45%, driven in large part by a rebound in support from Democrats just two months before the November midterm elections . During a few bleak summer months when gasoline prices peaked and lawmakers appeared deadlocked, the Democrats faced the possibility of blowout losses against Republicans.
Their outlook appears better after notching a string of legislative successes that left more Americans ready to judge the Democratic president on his preferred terms: “Don’t compare me to the Almighty. Compare me to the alternative.”
The president’s approval rating remains underwater, with 53% of U.S. adults disapproving of him, and the economy continues to be a weakness for Biden. Just 38% approve of his economic leadership as the country faces stubbornly high inflation and Republicans try to make household finances the axis of the upcoming vote.
Still, the poll suggests Biden and his fellow Democrats are gaining momentum right as generating voter enthusiasm and turnout takes precedence.
Average gas prices have tumbled 26% since June to $3.71 a gallon, reducing the pressure somewhat on family budgets even if inflation remains high . Congress also passed a pair of landmark bills in the past month that could reshape the economy and reduce carbon emissions .
Republicans have also faced resistance since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and its abortion protections. And Biden is openly casting former President Donald Trump as a fundamental threat to democracy , a charge that took on resonance after an FBI search of Trump's Florida home found classified documents that belong to the U.S. government.
This combination of factors has won Biden some plaudits among the Democratic faithful, even if Americans still feel lukewarm about his leadership.
“I’m not under any belief that he’s the best person for the job — he’s the best from the people we had to choose from,” said Betty Bogacz, 74, a retiree from Portland, Oregon. “He represented stability, which I feel President Trump did not represent at all.”
Biden's approval rating didn't exceed 40% in May, June or July as inflation surged in the aftermath of Russia invading Ukraine . But his string of wins over the past month continued on Thursday, after the poll was conducted, when he announced a tentative deal between railways and unions that avoided a strike that could have shut down the railroads and devastated the economy.
The president's rating now is similar to what it was throughout the first quarter of the year, but he continues to fall short of early highs. His average approval rating in AP-NORC polling through the first six months of his term was 60%.
Driving the recent increase in Biden's popularity is renewed support among Democrats, who had shown signs of dejection in the early summer. Now, 78% of Democrats approve of Biden’s job performance, up from 65% in July. Sixty-six percent of Democrats approve of Biden on the economy, up from 54% in June.
Interviews suggest a big reason for Biden's rebound is the reemergence of Trump on the national stage, causing voters such as Stephen Jablonsky, who labeled Biden as “OK,” to say voting Democratic is a must for the nation's survival.
“The country has a political virus by the name of Donald Trump,” said Jablonsky, a retired music professor from Stamford, Connecticut. “We have a man who is psychotic and seems to have no concern for law and order and democracy. The Republican Party has gone to a place that is so unattractive and so dangerous, this coming election in November could be the last election we ever have.”
Republicans feel just as negative about Biden as they did before. Only about 1 in 10 Republicans approve of the president overall or on the economy, similar to ratings earlier this summer.
Christine Yannuzzi, 50, doubts that 79-year-old Biden has the capacity to lead.
“I don’t think he’s mentally, completely aware of everything that’s happening all the time,” said Yannuzzi, who lives in Binghamton, New York. “The economy’s doing super poorly and I have a hard time believing that the joblessness rate is as low as they say it is.”
“I think the middle class is being really phased out and families are working two and three jobs a person to make it,” the Republican added.
Twenty-nine percent of U.S. adults say the economy is in good shape, while 71% say it’s doing poorly. In June, 20% said conditions were good and 79% said they were bad.
Democrats are more positive now than they were in June, 46% vs. 31%. Republicans remain largely negative, with only 10% saying conditions are good and 90% saying they’re bad.
About a quarter of Americans now say things in the country are headed in the right direction, 27%, up from 17% in July. Seventy-two percent say things are going in the wrong direction.
Close to half of Democrats — 44% — have an optimistic outlook, up from 27% in July. Just 9% of Republicans are optimistic about the nation’s direction.
Akila Atkins, a 27-year-old stay-at-home mom of two, thinks Biden is “OK” and doesn’t have much confidence that his solutions will curb rising prices.
Atkins says it’s gotten a little harder in the last year to manage her family’s expenses, and she’s frustrated that she can no longer rely on the expanded child tax credit. The tax credit paid out monthly was part of Biden's $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package and has since lapsed.
The Census Bureau reported Tuesday that the expanded tax credit nearly halved the child poverty rate last year to 5.2%. Atkins said it helped them “stay afloat with bills, the kids’ clothing, shoes, school supplies, everything.”
Whatever misgivings the Democrat in Grand Forks, North Dakota, has about Biden, she believes he is preferable to Trump.
“I always feel like he could be better, but then again, he’s better than our last president,” she said.

‘I love this, it’s just in my blood’: SOLVE volunteers clean up NE Portland
PORTLAND, Ore. (KPTV) - Thousands of people across Oregon did their part to keep waterways clear of litter on Saturday.
SOLVE Oregon hosted their annual beach and riverside cleanup along the coast and in the metro area too. It offered over 100 projects people could sign up for.
“Who else is going to do it?” volunteer Les Snow said. “Might as well be me.”
Snow is one of dozens of people who hit the streets in northeast Portland with a trash bag in hand to pick up litter. He’s lived in Oregon his whole life and said he loves to be able to help make a difference through organized cleanups with SOLVE a couple times a year.
“I’ve picked everything up from small, micro pieces of foam and tires, everything in between,” he said. “It’d be nice to fill the bag but it’s a trade off because if you fill the bag that’s great, but if you can’t find any trash? That’s better.”
Even though Irving Park isn’t near any waterways, SOLVE said keeping urban areas clean helps keep storm drains clean too, which prevents trash from ending up in the water.
“I love this, it’s just in my blood I think,” Snow said.
It was Alison Dow’s second time participating in a SOLVE cleanup. This time, it was more than just picking up litter.
“It’s kind of, in the honor of - my mother died two years ago on this day, and I knew she would love that,” Dow said. “I wanted to do something that made me not feel so sad, and made me feel good about the day.”
Though, she’s more than happy to be a helping hand to keep the city looking good, too.
“You go into an area that’s full of trash, and then you leave it looking so much better,” Snow said. “As I was telling some people, it feeds your soul.”

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) — Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen combined for 176 rushing yards and four touchdowns as No. 22 Penn State cruised to a 41-12 win at Auburn on Saturday.
The Nittany Lions’ freshman running backs were instrumental in the red zone. Penn State (3-0) scored touchdowns on each of its first four trips inside the 20-yard line. Quarterback Sean Clifford passed for 178 yards.
The Penn State defense forced four turnovers by Auburn (2-1) and also held Tigers star running back Tank Bigsby to 39 rushing yards.
Penn State led by one point late in the second quarter before Allen scored his first of two touchdowns. After Auburn opened the third quarter with a three-and-out, Singleton broke a 54-yard run and found the end zone two plays later.
The Nittany Lions scored 20 points in the second half to pull away for the comfortable win in what was the first game against a Big Ten opponent for Auburn inside Jordan-Hare Stadium.
Penn State: The Nittany Lions dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, which is a major step forward for James Franklin’s program. Penn State still has time to grow, too, considering the number of newcomers who are playing key roles so far this season.
Auburn: The pressure on Bryan Harsin will only increase after this loss, which was Auburn’s fifth straight to a Power Five team. On top of the four turnovers, the Tigers’ offense was unable to establish a consistent rushing attack and allowed a large amount of pressure in the passing game.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
Penn State made its season debut in the poll this week and has a good chance to move up after a statement win on the road.
UP NEXT
Penn State returns home to face Central Michigan next Saturday. Auburn hosts Missouri in its SEC opener next Saturday.

TORONTO - Modern Games, a three-year-old son of Dubawi -Modern Ideals, was stunning in victory in Saturday’s Grade 1 $1,017,200 Ricoh Woodbine Mile, part of the Breeders’ Cup “Win and You’re In” program.
Trained by Charles Appleby for owner-breeder Godolphin, the chestnut colt put his name in the record books as the first sophomore to win the turf classic.
And he did it in style.
Get Smokin, one of two — March to the Arch was the other — Mark Casse trainees, seized early control of the Mile, as three local starters, War Bomber, Mighty Heart and Town Cruise rounded out the top four through an opening quarter reached in: 23.08, as Buick and Modern Games settled into eighth of 11.
It was still Get Smokin calling the shots after a half in: 45.79, the five-year-old son of Got Stormy holding a half-length advantage over War Bomber, as Modern Games remained eighth, with a wall of horses in front of him.
As the field navigated the turn for home, Buick roused his charge and the duo soon found daylight, methodically picking off their rivals with ease before taking command and sprinting away from the field.
Two lengths in front at the stretch call, Modern Games crossed the wire a 5 1/4-length winner. Ivar rallied to best Finest Sound by a neck for second, while Shirl’s Speight was fourth. Town Cruise (last year’s Mile victor), Mighty Heart, Wakanaka, March to the Arch, War Bomber, Get Smokin and Homer Screen rounded out the field.
The final time over firm ground was 1:32.77.
“I didn’t know that,” said Alex Merriam, assistant to Charles Appleby, in regard to Modern Games becoming the first three-year-old to win the Mile. “He’s a lovely horse, you know. Obviously, he won the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf last year, and he’s got some solid form in Europe. He’s just a lovely horse and I’m delighted.”
With Saturday’s win, Modern Games, now 6-2-1 from 11 starts, earns a fees-paid berth to run in the Grade 1, $2 million Breeders’ Cup Mile at Keeneland on Nov. 5.
Buick would love to get another chance at Breeders’ Cup glory with the multiple graded stakes winner.
“Very excited. Of course, he’s obviously a Juvenile Turf winner already last year, so you know he loves North American racing. We are very much looking forward to it.”
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 17, 2022.

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — A strong earthquake struck southeastern Taiwan on Saturday evening, toppling objects from store shelves, collapsing a house and interrupting rail service on the island, but there were no immediate reports of deaths, media reported.
Taiwan’s Central News Agency said the 6.4 magnitude shallow quake was centered north of Taitung County on the island’s eastern shore.
It partially collapsed an uninhabited house in Hualien County, about 165 kilometers (100 miles) north along the coast, causing no casualties. Trains linking Hualien and Taitung had been temporarily halted and five other high speed rail services canceled until safety checks are performed, the Taiwan Railways Administration said.
Metro systems in the capital, Taipei, and southern Kaohsiung City were temporarily suspended.

Bo Nix channels inner Marcus Mariota with feat not seen in nearly a decade
The no.25 Oregon Ducks upset the no. 12 BYU Cougars, 41-20, on Saturday behind a five-touchdown performance from quarterback Bo Nix. Nix’s legendary game made him the first Oregon quarterback since Marcus Mariota in 2014 with three rushing and two passing touchdowns in a game.
It should be noted that 2014 just so happens to be the year Mariota won the Heisman Trophy.
Bo Nix had a day vs BYU!

Nix threw for 222 passing yards and two passing touchdowns. He also added 35 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns to his stat line. This is Nix’s first career three-rushing-touchdown game.

Outside of Nix, Oregon running backs Mar’keise Irving and Noah Whittington combined for 27 carries and 163 rushing yards on over 6.0 yards per carry. Wide receiver Troy Franklin caught three passes for 84 receiving yards. Tight end Terrance Ferguson had two catches for 24 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

Nix transferred to Oregon from Auburn after the 2021 season. Auburn had high expectations when Nix entered their program, even naming him the starting quarterback as a true freshman. Unfortunately, Nix struggled to live up to those expectations.
In three seasons at Auburn, Nix threw for 7,251 passing yards, 39 passing touchdowns, and 16 interceptions. He transferred to Oregon for a fresh start and it now seems like he has found a better situation for himself.
Nix’s Oregon debut against the no. 1 Georgia Bulldogs went as bad as one could expect against the best team in the country. Nix threw for 173 passing yards and two interceptions en route to a 49-3 defeat. He has now bounced back with two consecutive stellar performances.
The Ducks are 2-1 and Nix has thrown for 672 passing yards, seven touchdowns, and two interceptions in three games. Fresh off an upset victory, Nix will ride into Pullman, Washington to face off against the Washington State Cougars next week.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Kentucky has self-reported violations to the NCAA following an investigation into athletes being compensated for part-time work that was not performed at the university hospital.
The school asked that the violations be processed as Level III in the report, which was released Saturday but submitted Sept. 3 to NCAA reinstatement director Jerry Vaughn.
The school began an investigation after learning in February of possible violations, which were found to have occurred between spring 2021 and March. It was limited to a “small number” of athletes who concealed their use of a clock-in/clock-out system while working in the hospital’s patient transport department.
The report does not specify which teams the athletes were from, but said the part-time jobs “could require physical strength and might be suitable for athletes.” Players’ names and how many were involved are redacted from the six-page document, which says a hospital supervisor denied knowing of athletes recording hours not worked.
The hospital’s human resources department became involved and worked with its chief nursing officer to suspend players from the hospital, along with the supervisor. Some but not all hours were recorded but not worked, the document noted.
Kentucky’s athletics compliance determined that violations had occurred and declared the athletes ineligible as corrective actions, the document stated. Athletes also will not be able to work with UK Healthcare without a specific academic reason. The report added that no athletic coaching staff member or department official knew of or should have known of the violation.
Kentucky’s release of the report comes days after football coach Mark Stoops announced that leading rusher Chris Rodriguez Jr. will return on Oct. 1 at Mississippi. Rodriguez, who rushed for 1,379 yards last fall, has missed three games, including Saturday’s contest against Youngstown State and is out next week against Northern Illinois.
Stoops has repeatedly declined to give specifics on Rodriguez's status and has not described his absence as a suspension. Linebacker Jordan Wright sat out the opener but returned for last week’s victory at Florida.
