Disney's activism against Florida's parental rights law that prohibits sex education for elementary school kids has GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis taking a look at Disney's special self-governing privileges on its Disney World grounds near Orlando.
"What I would say as a matter of first principle is I don't support special privileges in law just because a company is powerful and they've been able to wield a lot of power," DeSantis said at a Thursday news conference in West Palm Beach.
Disney has been permitted to self-govern on its grounds under a 55-year-old state law.
But Disney's war of words with DeSantis — under pressure from LGBTQ+ activists opposed to Florida's new law — might put those privileges under review by the state.
Florida's parental rights law "prohibits classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in certain grade levels."
The law protects kids in third grade or younger from being led on "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" because it is "not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students."
DeSantis' homing in on Disney comes after a Republican bill reining in Big Tech has given Disney a "carve out" at the "eleventth hour" for theme parks, he lamented.
"I'm thinking to myself, 'This is ridiculous,'" DeSantis said. "Honestly, it was embarrassing.
"I think what has happened is there's a lot of these special privileges that are not justifiable, but because Disney had held so much sway, they were able to sustain a lot of special treatment over the years."
With Disney's activism flying in the face of a majority of Floridians, DeSantis continued, it "lost a lot of the pull that they used to have," which is a "good thing for our state because the state should be governed by the best interest of the people."
"I would say any special privileges that are in law I would like to get rid of generally," DeSantis said. "I think in this particular case with Disney, I just don't think you have very many people in the Legislature anymore who are going to be able to defend a lot of what has been done over many years to really have them almost govern themselves in some of these things.
"That was probably never appropriate to start, but is certainly not appropriate now at this point."
Disney World was given control over operations such as law enforcement and fire protection in an arrangement that was created to attract the theme park to the state in 1967.
"Yesterday was the 2nd meeting in a week w/fellow legislators to discuss a repeal of the 1967 Reedy Creek Improvement Act, which allows Disney to act as its own government," State Rep. Spencer Roach, R-Lee County, tweeted Wednesday morning. "If Disney wants to embrace woke ideology, it seems fitting that they should be regulated by Orange County."
DeSantis, who is seeking reelection, faces challenger John Joseph Mercadqnte in the state's Aug. 23 Republican primary. And six Democrats are vying for their party's nomination, including Rep. Charlie Crist, who served as Florida governor from 2007 to 2011, according to Ballotpedia.

WASHINGTON COUNTY, Fla. (WMBB) — John Plitsas’ home was destroyed by Thursday morning’s severe weather, and he almost slept through it.
“I was asleep,” Plitsas said. “I heard a bunch of noise. I went to get up. I open the door to my bedroom. No house left. Gone.”
But his bedroom was left untouched by the storm.
“There’s somebody or a higher power who wants me here,” Plitsas said.
When he first woke up he said he didn’t believe what he was seeing.
“I think I turned around and I was going to go back to sleep,” Plitsas said. “I said this is a dream. But it wasn’t. It wasn’t.”
His roof and walls were gone. Plitsas said he found his clothes across the street.
Now he is working with insurance to rebuild his home.
“Blessed,” Plitsas said. “That’s how I feel, that’s how I feel. Because if that would have moved over six inches I wouldn’t be talking to you right now.” | https://www.mypanhandle.com/news/local-news/washington-county/man-wakes-up-to-home-destroyed-by-tornado/ | 2022-04-01T01:30:47Z |
At one point late Wednesday morning, nearly 30 customers are at Slow Bloom Coffee, lining up to order, awaiting their drink or sitting inside or on the patio. Five crew members pitch in to handle the surge until, like a cresting wave, it gently subsides.
It looks like a triumph, one nearly two years in the making.
Slow Bloom arose from the ashes — or is that coffee grounds? — of Augie’s Coffee, the Redlands-based chain that fired its entire staff as they sought to unionize, and later closed for good after the National Labor Relations Board sided with the workers.
Fifteen baristas formed Slow Bloom, a worker-owned cooperative. Now they have their own shop, at 420 W. Colton Ave. in Redlands.
Its grand opening is Saturday, with food vendors and a vintage clothes retailer in the parking lot, a latte art competition among local baristas and a disc jockey.
As employee Jina Edwards fills me in at a table in the bustling shop, I ask her, a la Bob Dylan: How does it feel?
“It feels surreal and epic and gigantically amazing!” Edwards exclaims, throwing her hands in the air.
I can believe it.
I’d been following the Augie’s/Slow Bloom saga vicariously since news of the mass layoff broke in July 2020, a few weeks into the pandemic. It was a story I wanted to tell at whatever point it made sense to do so. And this is it.
First calling themselves Augie’s Union, employees roasted coffee at a like-minded shop in Burbank, Reverse Orangutan, and sold bags of beans at events by The Artlands, a Redlands art hub on whose board Edwards sits.
Those sales raised cash for former Augie’s staffers who weren’t yet getting unemployment and provided seed money for the future shop. A Kickstarter campaign raised $36,000. That and a loan allowed them to lease a building — a former glass shop with a Midcentury Modern look — and buy equipment.
The workers hired a contractor but did some of the labor themselves to cut costs, including demolishing the interior and putting up drywall after watching YouTube tutorials.
In a coffee-deprived neighborhood on Redlands’ sleepy north side, the shop opened late last year for weekend pop-ups but formally opened March 7 with regular hours: 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week.
Things have gone great — mostly. Before the first week was out, someone heaved a rock through the front window and stole the cash register.
“We just opened and already had a break-in,” Edwards laments. Customers, chagrined, gave the staff lemons and oranges as moral support. The boarded-up window was replaced four days later and everything continued as before.
“We have the rock. We saved it,” Edwards says, smiling. “We named it Dwayne. Like Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.”
How does Slow Bloom operate as a collective? The 15 workers who stuck with it are automatically members; any expansion of the staff will require a buy-in. The 15 hold regular meetings and make decisions as a group. If push comes to shove, a three-member board — Kelley Bader, Evan Costello and Edwards — will have final say.
Everyone makes $15 an hour and all tips are pooled and shared. That eliminates the competition for busier shifts.
“We want everything to feel even,” Edwards explains. At last, the workers’ paradise is here, and it’s in Redlands.
Slow Bloom has been an inspiration to baristas and food service staffs across the country. The New York Times featured them, and the staff has done podcast interviews, spoken at union conferences and fielded questions on Instagram.
Will this work permanently? Food service is known for high turnover. United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers Local 1011 helped the staff unionize and provided crucial support in creating a model for a co-op indie coffeehouse, but it’s unproven territory.
Regardless, few things are permanent in life. Case in point: Augie’s, which seemed solid with six locations by its 2019 10th anniversary, and then collapsed. C’est le bean.
Edwards, at 42 the oldest crew member, is thrilled to be serving customers again and having a say.
“Just walking into a space knowing that you’re valued,” Edwards says. “You can talk about what’s going on and know you’re being heard rather than thinking someone’s waiting for you to make a wrong move.”
The collective wants the shop to feel welcoming. Vegetarian and vegan items are served. There’s no surcharge for alternative milks that at many shops are $1 extra. A regular drip coffee is $2, priced for the working-class neighborhood.
Customer Karem Pedersen was an Augie’s regular and is now a Slow Bloom regular too, sensing a continuity because of all the familiar faces.
“They’re working hard,” the 43-year-old graphic designer says while sipping a green tea. “This was not handed to them.”
Costello, a board member who is behind the coffee bar Wednesday, doubles as Slow Bloom’s accountant.
“I had a degree in mathematics from Cal State San Bernardino,” Costello, 26, tells me. He’s quick to say that a CPA is doing their taxes, but he’s learning about procurement and the price of goods and making sure there’s a profit — and there is.
“We all have our special talents to contribute. We’re the hands and feet of this place,” Costello says. “To be able to create a business with people I care about, that was what I wanted to do.”
I sit out on the side patio with an iced latte and read my newspaper in the sun’s warmth. With residences backing up to the shop, it’s quiet here. Peaceful. From a nearby yard, a rooster crows.
Good morning from Slow Bloom.

Acquanetta Warren, reality TV star? The mayor of Fontana will be featured on the 9 p.m. Friday episode of “Undercover Boss” on CBS as she pitches in to maintain the city’s sewers and pick up trash in a park. The series purports to follow executives as they slip anonymously into the rank-and-file of their own organizations. I’m skeptical that Warren could blend into the background anywhere, but I’m ready to tune in to see.

There are hints of autobiography throughout the film, most notably in the drive for young Aline’s performance. Lemercier grew up in a farming family with three sisters and she quickly learned that the clowns around her could lighten her sad mother’s mood. “When I made people laugh at a young age, even less than five years old, I immediately felt that I existed, I had a purpose, that I would not be worthless,” Lemercier said. “For me, it’s the joy of making people laugh, and for him it’s the joy of singing.”
Born in Normandy, Lemercier moved to Paris at the age of 18, and her career took off in the late 1980s thanks to a cameo in the sketch series “Palace”. His commercial success came in 1993 with the blockbuster “The Visitors”, which earned him Cesar for Best …

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — A $64.1 billion supplemental state budget that spends on statewide programs ranging from homelessness and behavioral health to the ongoing COVID-19 response was signed Thursday by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee.
The supplemental plan builds off of the $59 billion, two-year spending plan adopted by the Legislature last year, and benefited from the significant influx of revenues the state has seen over the past year. Additionally, lawmakers used more than $1 billion in remaining pandemic-related federal relief funds in the budget.
More than $800 million is allocated for homelessness and housing, including $50 million to transition unhoused people from unsanctioned camps to housing.
Inslee specifically called out the efforts on addressing homelessness, saying that lawmakers “gave us relief that is big, that is bold, and that is fast.”
While there are no general tax increases in the plan, there are also no across-the-board tax cuts, something Republicans had argued for throughout the legislative session that ended March 10.
People are also reading…
“It’s been easy to explain to my constituents why Republicans opposed this budget – all I have to do is point to how the costs of living have continued to rise in the weeks since it was adopted, and the huge revenue surplus the Democrats had available,“ Republican Sen. Lynda Wilson said in a statement.
A small business tax credit was included that would affect about 125,000 small businesses in the state, and was among the bills signed by Inslee Thursday.
Starting in January, businesses making less than $125,000 a year would pay no state business taxes, and those making up to $250,000 a year, business taxes will be cut in half.
The supplemental operating budget also spends state or federal money on things like adding more social supports like nurses and counselors for students, increasing rates to vendors providing services to people with developmental disabilities or long-term care needs and shoring up the state’s paid family leave program, which officials warned was nearing a deficit.
It also allots funding for raises for state workers. According to the Office of Financial Management, about 63,800 general government employees will get a 3.25% general wage increase, about 6,700 state corrections workers will get a 4% general wage increase and about 1,200 state patrol officers will get a 10% general wage increase. The last general wage increase for represented employees was July 1, 2020.
The operating budget also transfers more than $2 billion to the nearly $17 billion, 16-year transportation revenue package that Inslee signed last week. The plan leaves about $3 billion in total reserves.
Inslee had several full or partial vetoes of bills, including a section of a bill that would have expanded the state’s existing warehouse sales and use tax to include smaller warehouses of at least 100,000 square feet. In his veto notice, Inslee said that while he understood the importance of manufacturing and warehousing to rural economies, he said the tax incentives in the bill were overly broad.
Inslee on Thursday also signed a $1.5 billion state construction budget that spends on areas ranging from housing, homelessness, behavioral health facilities, and seismic upgrades at public schools.

Colorado couple charged in toddler’s fentanyl death
BRIGHTON, Colo. (AP) — A Colorado couple face felony charges in connection with the fentanyl death of their 1-year-old child, whom prosecutors say died after ingesting enough of the extremely lethal drug to kill an adult.
Alonzo Montoya, 31, and Nicole Casias, 30, of the Denver suburb of Brighton were charged with child abuse resulting in death and distribution of a controlled substance in connection with the girl’s death on Jan. 2, the 17th Judicial District’s Office said in a statement Thursday.
It said the Adams County Coroner had determined that the child died after ingesting fentanyl and that Montoya and Casias “participated in illicit drug activity” in the child’s presence at home before and after her death.
Montoya was being held on $250,000 bail at the Adams County Jail. Bail was set at $100,000 for Casias. A status hearing for both was set for Monday.
Telephone and email messages seeking comment from Casias’ attorney, Rachel Lanzen, were not immediately returned. Montoya was being represented by the public defender’s office, which doesn’t comment on pending cases.
Court records that would provide details on the accusations weren’t immediately available from the county district court. Christopher Hopper, a district attorney’s spokesman, said he could not provide additional information.
Fentanyl is an unpredictable and powerful synthetic painkiller blamed for driving an increase in fatal drug overdoses. It’s 50 to 100 times stronger than morphine, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. | https://www.mymotherlode.com/news/national/2449921/colorado-couple-charged-in-toddlers-fentanyl-death.html | 2022-04-01T01:30:47Z |

SCAPPOOSE, Ore. (AP) — Authorities say a man was shot and killed Thursday by two police officers in Scappoose, Oregon.
Columbia County officials confirmed the officer-involved shooting on social media. In a tweet, officials said that “no officers were injured and the incident is currently under investigation.”
A witness told KOIN-TV that he was dropping his wife off at work when he saw a man show up to the towing facility next door. The witness, Erik Tyler, said the man appeared angry and a fight escalated between the man and employees until the workers told him they would call the police.
Police arrived and Tyler said he heard them yell at the man to drop his weapon and the man didn’t comply.
Detective Shannon Wilde with the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, which has taken over the investigation, told reporters police responded to the “disturbance” at Grumpy’s Towing just before 10 a.m. During the incident, Wilde said both a sheriff's deputy and an Oregon State Police trooper fired their weapons, killing the man.
Wilde did not identify the deceased man or specify whether he was armed at the time but said he was wanted for an unrelated “violent felony.”
Wilde also declined to comment on the circumstances that led up to the shooting. | https://www.darientimes.com/news/article/Police-Officers-shoot-kill-man-in-Scappoose-17049819.php | 2022-04-01T01:30:49Z |

Born November 12, 1932 in Beloit, WI to Dale and Gladys (Sprague) Thompson and a 1950 BMHS graduate. Bea married Fred Quade on May 11, 1951 in Vernon, LA.
She worked in accounting at Fairbanks Morse and later at the Wisconsin Visitors Center. Attending Peoples Church for 40+ years, she and Fred led the youth group and she played the organ and sang in the choir, among other groups. She instilled her love of music into her daughters. Bea loved being outdoors, reading a good book by the Rock River, gardening, picnicking, camping, and traveling the U.S. She made every gathering special and was a great cook. She sewed beautifully and passed that skill on to her girls. She also loved playing games, with Scrabble being her favorite. The grandkids will always remember playing hide and seek in her big house, having a grand time with their cousins. But most important, Bea shared a strong faith with her family and is now with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Survivors include her children, Linda McCormick of Eden Prairie, MN, Phyllis (Stephen) Huckabee of St. Peters, MO, and Brenda (Thomas) Uppenkamp of Beloit, WI; grandchildren, Judson (Noelle) McCormick, Carleigh McCormick, Jared (Patricia) Huckabee, Shane (Debra) Huckabee, Stephanie (Scott) Klipsch, Brant Uppenkamp, Justin (Lee) Uppenkamp and Mallory (Torry) Leonard; several great grandchildren; sister, Rebecca (Robert) Brunton of Eaton Rapids, MI; and several nieces and nephews.
Bea was predeceased by her parents; husband; four brothers and two sisters; and a son-in-law.
Her Memorial Service will be on Thursday, April 7, 2022 at 11:00 a.m. at Faith Community Church, 2931 Lucerne Dr., Janesville, WI, preceded by a 10:00 a.m. visitation. More information is at www.daleymurphywisch.com
A special thank you from the family to Willowick caregivers for their love and the way they treated her like family. Also, thanks to Beloit Regional Hospice and Heartland Hospice for such wonderful care.

WASHINGTON COUNTY, Fla. (WMBB) — Two people are dead after a likely tornado touched down early Thursday morning in Washington County.
The possible tornado destroyed their home, as well as the homes of several of their neighbors along Gilbert’s Mill Road.
Residents are shocked and trying to figure out their next move, Washington County resident Donna Bratcher’s niece lost her home during the storm.
“Oh God, I’m just crying. We lost neighbors down the road. They’ve lost about everything,” Bratcher said.
Washington County residents were picking up the pieces of their homes, looking to rebuild their lives after the storm on Thursday morning.
Kim Gross said her family left their house minutes before the likely tornado destroyed it.
“Just couldn’t believe it. Still can’t believe it. I still can’t really process everything right now so it’s devastating,” Gross said. “We woke up to our phones going off saying there was a tornado in the area. And we jumped in the truck and left and it hit like two minutes after we left.”
When they returned, their roof was gone. Gross said she lost pictures and memories that couldn’t be replaced.
“It’s a little rough looking in there. There’s dirt and sheetrock. Everything all over everything,” Gross said.
She said she doesn’t have homeowners insurance and it’s still too fresh to comprehend the tragedy.
“Can’t really actually process everything right now. Still kind of in shock. And we lost our neighbors,” Gross said.
“They’re alive, God saved them. It didn’t happen down the street but God saved them,” Bratcher said.
While her family is safe, their neighbors lost their parents.

By RONALD BLUM AP Sports Writer
SAN JOSE, Costa Rica — Christian Pulisic and Tyler Adams had relief on their faces as they headed straight from the stadium for a charter jet to Europe and weekend club games.
“This is whatever I’ve always wanted to be, and right now emotions are a bit crazy,” Pulisic said, his voice quavering.
Coach Gregg Berhalter had rushed out for a red-eye to New York and a 12½-hour connecting flight to Friday’s World Cup draw (9 a.m. PT, FS1) in Doha, Qatar.
Recovering from the past and preparing for the future intertwined as the United States clinched a return to the World Cup.
For Pulisic, DeAndre Yedlin, Kellyn Acosta and Paul Arriola, all on that doomed American team at Trinidad 4½ years earlier, the pain had not gone away until now. The 2-0 loss to Costa Rica on Wednesday night was deflating, but by the time players entered the locker room of Estadio Nacional, focus turned to the accomplishment of clinching a return to soccer’s showcase for the first time since 2014.
Erik Palmer-Brown started popping open the Duet Mousseux Brut even as Berhalter was giving his speech. Then the new JBL Boombox 2 got to blare.
“We’re the youngest team to ever qualify for the World Cup, youngest U.S. team, and we’ll be the youngest team at the World Cup,” Berhalter said. ”That’s an accomplishment for these guys. It really is.”
They had traveled 25,042 miles on charters – circling the globe adds up to only 24,901 – making four trips to Central America, plus one each to Mexico, Canada and Jamaica, plus up to five trans-Atlantic round trips. Forty-four players were called in, of which 38 took the field. In all, 114 players have been used since Trinidad, 88 since Berhalter was hired in December 2018.
Pulisic had buried his face in his hands at Couva, wiping away tears.
“That was one of the toughest days of my life. I’ll never forget it,” he recalled. “Now to be in this position – qualified for a World Cup, we’re all extremely proud.”
Berhalter admitted the pressure was omnipresent.
“The public was on edge. They desperately wanted us to make it,” he said.
All of 23, Pulisic, Adams and Weston McKennie are the team leaders. Right back Sergiño Dest and left back Antonee Robinson became offensive threats. Gio Reyna, at 19, emerged as a budding star, just like his dad three decades earlier.
“Now we have to test ourselves against the best players in the world, the best teams in the world,” Adams said. “This was only the first stage in our development.”
Berhalter is among a 12-person U.S. Soccer Federation attending the draw, mapping out Qatar plans for a tournament that opens Nov. 21, in the middle of European club seasons.
Four games are likely in June, two in the CONCACAF Nations League and two exhibitions, followed by a pair of friendlies in September, possibly in Europe. Major League Soccer players may have a domestic training camp before the tournament.
And if the U.S. winds up in Groups E through G, which don’t start play until Nov. 24-25, the Americans might train in Europe for several days and have one more exhibition before heading to the Middle East.
“The starting point is getting out of the group,” Berhalter said.
USSF staff locked down hotel and training arrangements on Oct. 1, 2019, the day the portal opened, putting the team in an optimum logistical situation.
Berhalter presumes form will change between now and November, causing roster churn. He was impressed with the growth over 14 qualifiers in temperatures that ranged from minus-3 degrees in St. Paul, Minnesota, and 85 degrees in Austin, Texas.
“I think we improved our pressing,” he said. “But we’re going to continue to evolve and to continue to improve. The 4-3-3 system, as it’s been good for us, we might work with some other systems just to have some flexibility in the World Cup. I think it’s important to see who we are playing and start planning out how we can be successful there.”
For all the positive feelings, the U.S. dropped to third among eight nations in CONCACAF, behind Canada and Mexico. If not for last week’s 0-0 draw at Mexico, the Americans would have finished fourth and wound up in a June playoff against New Zealand.
“The easy part is over, and now we focus on this draw,” said defender Walker Zimmerman, who rose like a rocket from initially off the roster in October to starting nine of the past 11 games. “Ultimately just focus on staying fit, staying healthy, performing for our clubs.”
Forward remains a concern. After scoring three goals over two games last fall, Ricardo Pepi has gone scoreless in 19 games for club and country. Strikers produced just four of the Americans’ 21 goals, with Jesús Ferreira getting the other.
“We’re hoping that one of our 9s gets into a good form by the time the World Cup comes around,” Berhalter said Thursday during a layover at JFK International Airport.
Midfielders and wingers have been the engine, with Pulisic scoring five of the team’s 21 goals, and McKennie, Brenden Aaronson and Robinson two each.
“We can do a lot of damage, man,” Pulisic said. “We’re a confident bunch of guys and I think that country will get behind us and we’re going to give everything we got.”
“I just like the fight of his team and I think we have a lot of quality, as well,” he added. “I think we can be a force going into the World Cup.”
FIFA SETS DRAW SEEDINGS
The U.S. team received a boost for the World Cup draw and Canada took a hit in Thursday’s updated FIFA rankings.
The Americans, who failed to qualify for the last World Cup, will be in Pot 2 after being ranked 15th in the world.
Canada, which won the CONCACAF group and will play at the tournament for the first time in 36 years, missed a chance for a rankings boost by losing at Panama, 1-0, in its final qualifier.
Instead, Canada will be among the lowest-seeded teams in Pot 4.
The eight groups for the tournament in Qatar will be drawn Friday from four pots.
Qatar gets the top-seeded slot given to the World Cup host nation despite being ranked No. 51.
The other top-seeded teams are Brazil, Belgium, defending champion France, Argentina, England, Spain and Portugal.
Brazil took over as the No. 1 team from Belgium, the first change at the top in three years. Sixth-ranked Italy is the only team from the top 10 that failed to qualify.
Besides the United States, Pot 2 includes Mexico, Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, Uruguay, Switzerland and Croatia, while in Pot 3 it’s Senegal, Iran, Japan, Morocco, Serbia, Poland, South Korea and Tunisia.
Three of the 32 entries are still unknown because qualifying hasn’t been completed. Those three entries have all been placed in Pot 4 regardless of the rankings of the teams involved. No. 18 Wales is the highest-ranked of the eight teams left in the playoffs.
The rest of Pot 4 includes Cameroon Ecuador, Saudi Arabia and Ghana along with Canada.
Teams from the same continent will be placed in different groups, except for some Europeans.
Europe has 13 teams in the tournament and five of the eight groups will each get two teams from the continent. The other three groups each get one European team.
Qatar will kick off its home World Cup in the opening game of Group A on Nov. 21. The final is scheduled for Dec. 18 – the host’s National Day. | https://www.redlandsdailyfacts.com/2022/03/31/relieved-more-than-joyful-usmnt-turns-attention-to-world-cup-draw-preparation/ | 2022-04-01T01:30:53Z |
This is a contradiction. The Morrison government, in deep trouble, has produced a budget designed to shamelessly try to buy votes. But Labour, senseless in its rhetoric, has found itself adopting budget central measures.
Anthony Albanese neatly summed up the situation in Thursday night’s (March 31) budget reply.
“This government must have stapled cash in your ballot papers as well,” he said. And shortly thereafter: “We will deliver those payments as well, because we know Australians are under pressure.”
It was never going to happen otherwise. Scott Morrison previously told Parliament that Labor had “put a white flag on the budget”. Absolutely not. Labor wisely avoided fighting …

Report: US military must do more to avoid civilian deaths
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. military needs to adjust its planning, training, targeting and use of weapons in order to better avoid widespread civilian deaths and damage such as the devastating 2017 battle to liberate the Syrian city of Raqqa from Islamic State militants, a new RAND report said Thursday.
The report requested by the Pentagon reflects criticism of the military’s airstrike campaign that, according to some estimates, killed more than 1,600 civilians in Raqqa, as the U.S.-led coalition worked to destroy the Islamic State caliphate that wrested control of large swaths of Iraq and Syria.
Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said the report, which lays out a series of recommendations to improve military procedures and strategy, will be used as the department develops its own broader plan to reduce civlian harm.
“No other military works as hard as we do to mitigate civilian harm, and yet we still cause it,” said Kirby. ”We’re going to continue to try to learn from past issues.”
RAND concluded that the battle for Raqqa provided important lessons.
Michael McNerney, lead author of the RAND report, called Raqqa “a cautionary tale about civilian harm in urban combat.” He said it “should serve as an extra incentive to the DoD to strengthen its policies and procedures to mitigate, document and respond to civilian harm.”
The RAND report noted that there has been a wide range of estimated civilian casualties during the seige, but also said it believes that 60%-80% of Raqqa was left uninhabitable by the time the city was liberated in October 2017.
Initially the U.S.-led coalition estimted that it was responsible for 38 incidents involving 240 civilian casualties — including 178 who were killed. A consortium of local Syrian and international groups, including Amnesty International and Airwars, put the number of casualties at a “high estimate” of 1,600, but said that about 774 of them could specifically be “verified” by data as the result of coalition action.
The report makes it clear that several thousand more civilians likely died, based on the number of bodies uncovered by U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces, but many were probably killed by IS or other fighters on the ground.
“Our report focuses on U.S. actions in Raqqa, but the actions of the Syrian government and its Russian and Iranian partners undoubtedly contributed far more to civilian harm and suffering in Syria overall,” McNerney said.
The report noted that the challenges in Raqqa were compounded by limits on the number U.S. troops that could be there, as well as where they could be positioned. U.S. troops on the ground could have provided better targeting and civilian information, including on Islamic State militants’ efforts to use civilians as human shields, the report said.
RAND recommended that the U.S. military provide more extensive training and guidance on the need to avoid civilian harm, and plan and execute operations in ways to achieve those goals. Changes could include improved planning, better assessments of potential collateral damage, increased mission rehearsals, improved intelligence gathering, and more selective use of air strikes and munitions that minimize bomb fragmentation.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. (AP) — About $7 million worth of surplus personal protective equipment and cleaning supplies purchased by a Northern California county was left outside during a rainstorm because no one anticipated wet weather to start so early in the season, according to an investigation released Thursday.
After a KGO-TV news report showed hundreds of drenched cardboard boxes, San Mateo County officials acknowledged the supplies were moved outside an event center last September to make room for a conference.
There was no definitive timeline for how the supplies would be distributed “even though the Fall rainy season was not far off,” the probe by James Lianides said. County officials said they hired the retired school superintendent to conduct the inquiry because of his experience dealing with large organizations and purchasing practices.
Lianides said the boxes of non-medical-grade gowns, face shields and goggles as well as cleaning supplies were also moved out of the event center to avoid the $100,000-per-month storage fee.
“It does not appear that there were any discussions or actions taken in the process of (moving) to protect the equipment in the event of inclement weather, such as wrapping or covering each pallet,” he wrote.
The county's executive officer, Mike Callagy, has said the county purchased the items early in the pandemic when PPE was becoming scarce nationwide so that local first responders and medical providers would have what they needed. The demand for the equipment decreased as the pandemic continued.
The county’s supply of gloves and masks — including N95 and KN95 respirators — are stored indoors.
“What’s clear is that that this shouldn’t have happened. What is equally clear is we are taking the steps necessary to make sure that we put the checks and balances in place so this never happens again,” Callagy said in a statement Thursday.
An inspection of the damaged boxes determined that most of the safety equipment remains usable because they were packed in sealed plastic wrapping, the probe found. Equipment that could not be salvaged were worth about $128,000, according to Lianides. | https://www.darientimes.com/news/article/Report-Rain-not-anticipated-when-7M-in-PPE-17049873.php | 2022-04-01T01:30:56Z |
SCAPPOOSE, Ore. (AP) — Authorities say a man was shot and killed Thursday by two police officers in Scappoose, Oregon.
Columbia County officials confirmed the officer-involved shooting on social media. In a tweet, officials said that “no officers were injured and the incident is currently under investigation.”
A witness told KOIN-TV that he was dropping his wife off at work when he saw a man show up to the towing facility next door. The witness, Erik Tyler, said the man appeared angry and a fight escalated between the man and employees until the workers told him they would call the police.
Police arrived and Tyler said he heard them yell at the man to drop his weapon and the man didn’t comply.
Detective Shannon Wilde with the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, which has taken over the investigation, told reporters police responded to the “disturbance” at Grumpy’s Towing just before 10 a.m. During the incident, Wilde said both a sheriff's deputy and an Oregon State Police trooper fired their weapons, killing the man.
Wilde did not identify the deceased man or specify whether he was armed at the time but said he was wanted for an unrelated “violent felony.”
Wilde also declined to comment on the circumstances that led up to the shooting. | https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/Police-Officers-shoot-kill-man-in-Scappoose-17049819.php | 2022-04-01T01:30:56Z |
Whitewater, WI - Dr. Paul Bennett of Whitewater, formerly of Beloit, died March 27, 2022.
Although born in Waterloo, Iowa, Paul spent most of his youth and young adulthood in the Chicago area. He attended New Trier high school, Northwestern University (1956), Northwestern University Medical School (1960). He did his internship and residency at the University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas. Dr. Bennett's specialty training was interrupted by a stint in the U. S. Army, stationed at Fort Mead, Maryland and Fort Greeley, Alaska. He returned to UTMB to finish his training and remained there as an instructor until he joined the Beloit Clinic as an Obstetrician/Gynecologist in 1967.
In 1960, Dr. Bennett married Barbara (Bobbi) Metcalf in Milford, NH. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, daughters Patty (Dr. Steve) Stroman, Egg Harbor, WI. Kathy Bennett, Lebanon, NH, and son, Michael (Jennifer), DePere, WI.
Known as "Oomba" (grandfather) to Jon (Cara) Stroman, Allison (Kieran McCabe) Stroman and Andrew Stroman; Morgan and Haden Bennett, he followed their accomplishments as they developed into delightful and responsible adults. Further survivors include sister Deborah (Bill) Parks, cousin Wendell (Carol) Drew and several nieces and nephews. Paul was pre-deceased by a sister and his parents.
Per Dr. Bennett's wishes, there will be neither a visitation or service. At a later date, the family will gather to celebrate his life on the rural acreage he nurtured and enjoyed in his retirement.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions in his name to:

Privacy Advocates Urge Veto
Police departments across Virginia may soon have the ability to use billions of images scraped from social-media sites like Facebook and Instagram to track down suspects, a development that is concerning to critics who say the technology is invasive and a violation of privacy.

Paul George was treated to a celebratory postgame shower live on TNT on Tuesday, when three of his teammates circled around and emptied water bottles on the Clippers’ All-Star wing moments after he returned to action with a resounding 34 points in a rousing comeback win over the Utah Jazz.
Two of the Clippers doing the soaking: Terance Mann and Amir Coffey, guys who have been Clippers for three seasons, as long as George.
The third: Newcomer Xavier Moon, a well-traveled 27-year-old rookie who on Saturday signed a two-way deal with the team.
In a sense, George’s triumphant return to NBA action after more than three months away coincided with Moon’s.
“I feel like this is where I’m supposed to be, it definitely feels great to be back,” Moon said Monday, when his presence at Honey Training Center gave the Clippers a second healthy, proven professional point guard for the first time since they traded Eric Bledsoe.
Moon has impressed this season, both in 21 games this season with the Agua Caliente Clippers and in a trio of 10-day hardship deals with the parent club in late December and January, when they were hit hard by the league’s COVID-19 health and safety protocols.
In the G League, the 6-foot-2 Moon averaged 18.7 points on 45.3% shooting, including 38.5% from deep. He also averaged 7 assists and just 2.2 turnovers, to go with 4.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals.
And in the first six NBA games of his career, the three-time Canadian Elite Basketball League MVP averaged 5.5 points and 1.7 assists in 13.8 minutes per game.
COOL HIM OFF!!!💦 pic.twitter.com/SiU0UgMH6k
— LA Clippers (@LAClippers) March 30, 2022
Moon – whose roundabout route to the NBA took him from Alabama to France, England, Canada and Israel – also was among the team leaders in good vibes while he was around.
That included counseling Reggie Jackson, the Clippers’ the resident high-energy hype man said, to “just smile, have fun!” and, importantly, to appreciate the opportunity to play the game.
“He’s just always positive, optimistic,” Jackson said of Moon in January. “Not B.S. It’s nothing overdone, you can just tell he’s very optimistic, he’s very confident in what he does.”
Looking back, Moon said his initial taste of the NBA fed that belief.
“The month that I had here was probably the best month of basketball I’ve ever played, even though I only played in six games,” Moon said. “I learned a lot. … I took that and that was able to get me that time that I needed to elevate my game even more, even though I went back to the G, I didn’t look at it as a downgrade or anything like that. I looked at it as an opportunity to work harder and get back here.”
“And while I was here the first time, I learned a lot from these guys, just how to lead a team, just being a good teammate, all the type of stuff,” Moon added. “And I took it back with me to the G and then just worked my tail off to get back here, so it definitely feels good to be back, seeing everybody again.”
COFFEY’S NEW ROLE
Moon filled the Clippers’ vacated two-way spot after they signed Coffey to a standard deal worth $153,488 for the rest of the season, per ESPN’s Bobby Marks. The deal makes the 6-7 wing a restricted free agent in the offseason, when the team will retain his Bird rights, meaning they can sign him for as much as 25% of the salary cap for a maximum of five seasons.
It was an expected reward for a dependable contributor who has started 28 of 63 games this season, with 25 of those starts coming after George was ruled out on Christmas with a torn ligament in his right elbow.
When George returned to the lineup Tuesday, Coffey came off the bench for the first time in eight contests and, a game after playing more than 37 minutes in a loss to Philadelphia, logged just 28 seconds against the Jazz.
Coffey still made an instant impact when he checked in late in the third quarter, yanked a rebound away from Donovan Mitchell and quickly delivered an outlet pass to George, who scored and drew a foul in transition to build on the brewing comeback. With that sequence, the Clippers trimmed what had been a 25-point deficit to 12 entering the fourth quarter.
In his postgame comments, Coach Tyronn Lue made sure to credit Coffey for his alertness off the bench.
“A big play for me was that rebound that Amir got at the end of the quarter and was able to score at the end of the quarter,” Lue said. “That was huge.” | https://www.redlandsdailyfacts.com/2022/03/31/xavier-moon-gives-clippers-another-point-guard-and-good-vibes/ | 2022-04-01T01:30:59Z |
Eden Awash: A cheeky prank from April Fools’ Day suggested that Eden Park would host a surfing event. photo / supply
Put down that surfboard – Eden Park isn’t going to turn into a suburban surf break and you can’t buy a “bit-fishy coin” from your local marine store.
Kiwis took second guesses from what I read today, the cheeky joke celebrating April Fools’ Day.
Auckland’s premier sports venue Eden Park was touted as the next venue for the pro surf competition and we heard Jane Campion’s Oscar-winning film The Power of the Dog followed by the perfect sequel – The Power of the Cat.
There were sea deals offering tampons as a Covid-19 “snorkel filter” and a well-known road safety campaigner revealed they were pulled over for breaking the speed limit.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — For the first time in California's 171-year history, a woman has signed a bill into state law.
Gov. Gavin Newsom normally signs the laws in California, but he left the state on Wednesday night for a family vacation in Central and South America. State law requires Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis to act as governor until he returns.
The Legislature on Thursday morning passed a bill to extend a law preventing some renters from being evicted until the end of June. The bill had to be signed into law on Thursday because the old law was set to expire and tens of thousands of renters could have been evicted starting Friday.
It ended up being an historic moment for the nation's most populous state, which has a reputation as a progressive powerhouse but has never elected a woman governor.
“It was very humbling. And I did feel that sense of history,” said Kounalakis, who also signed a separate bill relating to elections on Thursday. “For many years women have been writing legislation ... but no woman has ever signed a bill into law. And it felt like a moment in history that we should recognize as important.”

California has elected plenty of women to other statewide offices.
In 1992 voters sent two Democratic women to the U.S. Senate. Dianne Feinstein still is serving while Barbara Boxer retired in 2017 and was replaced by Kamala Harris, who previously was state attorney general and now is vice president.
California's female power was on display during President Joe Biden's recent State of the Union address, when Harris and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sat behind him. Pelosi has represented San Francisco in Congress since 1987.
Kounalakis, a former president of a real estate development company who served as ambassador to Hungary under President Barack Obama, is California's first female lieutenant governor. She was elected in 2018 and replaced Newsom.
The state’s No. 2 executive has limited power. She casts tie-breaking votes in the state Senate and serves as a University of California regent, among other posts. Those who hold the office sometimes use the post to boost name recognition for future statewide campaigns — as Newsom did.
Historically, women don't run for governor at the same rate as they do other offices, according to Jean Sinzdak, associate director of the Center for American Women in Politics at Rutgers University. She said women usually make up about 25% of gubernatorial candidates nationwide. It's one reason there have been just 45 women who served as governors in U.S. history.
“People have these kind of unconscious biases, even against women in the executive position when they are the boss,” said Kim Nalder, professor of political science at California State University, Sacramento. “When they are members of a legislature they are members of a group. That plays into the positive stereotypes people have about women being good at collaboration.”
California is one of 19 states that have never elected a woman as governor. That likely won't change this year as Newsom is favored to win reelection. But it could change in 2026 when Newsom can't run again because of term limits.
California has four women elected to statewide office now while 38 women are in the Legislature — both all-time highs. Along with Kounalakis, Treasurer Fiona Ma, Controller Betty Yee, Secretary of State Shirley Weber and state Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins all could run for governor in 2026.
Kounalakis said any woman with a statewide platform should be thinking about running for governor — including herself. But with that election more than four and a half years away, she wasn't ready to commit to running for the office just yet.
“I think that what's important is that the women who could have a chance at being elected governor think about how we honor each other's abilities, because there is plenty of pressure for women to not help each other, when in fact the way that we'll see a women governor in the future is because women help one another,” Kounalakis said.
Newsom is scheduled to return to the state on April 12.
“The governor could have changed his plans. But he’s extremely supportive of elevating people around him, particularly those from underrepresented groups,” Kounalakis said. “And I am very grateful to him for helping to make this happen.”
This story has been corrected to fix two inaccurate spellings of Kounalakis' last name.

WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) – For some people, overdraft fees are a frustrating inconvenience. For others, they pose crippling costs. Some lawmakers now want to change how they’re charged altogether.
Rep. Carolyn Maloney introduced legislation called the “Overdraft Protection Act.” The bill includes provisions to cap the amount and number of fees a bank can charge.
“My bill tries to cut down on these unfair and deceptive practices,” the New York Democrat said.
Advocates like Elyse Crawford-Hicks with Americans for Financial Reform say overdraft fees hit low-income families and people of color the hardest.
“Overdraft fees are paid the most by people who can least afford them,” Crawford-Hicks said.
Others say over-drafting is a useful service because it can function like a short-term loan. Paul Kundert is the CEO of UW Credit Union, which recently reduced their overdraft fees and put more limits on how they charge them.
“When prices are fair, we believe consumers do benefit from access to the credit provided by overdraft fees,” Kundert said.
Recently, major banks like Wells Fargo, Citigroup and Bank of America have made changes themselves, by reducing their overdraft fees or eliminating them altogether.
Rep. Roger Williams, R-Texas, says that demonstrates the legislation is unnecessary.
“The market is naturally, naturally taking care of the issue without government intervention. And we do not need more rules from Washington,” Williams said.
Because banks make billions of dollars in revenue from overdraft fees, George Mason University Foundation Professor of Law Todd Zywicki argues the proposed changes would cost consumers.
“We’ll see higher bank fees, we’ll see higher minimum monthly deposits as basically insurance against over-drafting and we will see a loss of access to free checking,” Zywicki said.
Lawmakers like Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., are promising to continue pushing for the reforms.
“How can we perform such an abusive and predatory practice that punishes people simply for being poor?” Pressley said. | https://www.mypanhandle.com/news/politics/washington-dc/bill-seeks-to-put-cap-on-overdraft-fees/ | 2022-04-01T01:30:59Z |
California prison inmate death investigated as a homicide
DELANO, Calif. (AP) — The death of an inmate at a central California prison is being investigated as a homicide, officials said Thursday.
Juan E. Mendoza, 26, was found unresponsive in his cell at Kern Valley State Prison shortly before 5 p.m. on Wednesday, according to a statement from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
He had visible injuries and died a short time later despite life-saving efforts.
Mendoza shared his cell with another man, Jorge L. Mendoza, who was removed from the cell and placed in segregation while the death is investigated, authorities said.
Juan E. Mendoza went to prison in 2020 after receiving a six-year sentence in San Bernardino County for second-degree attempted murder and personal use of a dangerous weapon, officials said.
Jorge L. Mendoza was admitted from Monterey County in 2018 and was serving a sentence of life with the chance of parole for second-degree murder with the use of a firearm by a second-striker.
Kern Valley State Prison is located in Delano, northwest of Bakersfield. It has more than 3,200 inmates. | https://www.mymotherlode.com/news/state/2449901/california-prison-inmate-death-investigated-as-a-homicide.html | 2022-04-01T01:31:00Z |

Tommy Thompson, just weeks removed from leading the University of Wisconsin System, met with former President Donald Trump on Thursday for a talk about “Wisconsin politics,” a former aide said.
Thompson was elected to four terms as Wisconsin's governor, and earlier this year declined to rule out another bid. Thompson, 80, spent almost two years atop the university system before leaving earlier this month.
Bill McCoshen, a former chief of staff to Thompson when he served as governor, said the two met at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort.
“The primary topic was Wisconsin politics," McCoshen said. “They talked about the gubernatorial race, the Senate race and what it will take to win in Wisconsin. The topic of running for governor may have come up, but the purpose was to talk about Wisonsin politics more broadly.”
A Trump spokesman did not respond to a request for comment.
McCoshen said he expected Thompson to make a decision in April. The primary is in August. Former Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch, businessman Kevin Nicholson and state Rep. Timothy Ramthun are Republicans vying to take on Democratic Gov. Tony Evers.
Thompson was first elected to the Legislature in 1966 and was first elected governor in 1986. He resigned midway through his fourth term to serve as Health and Human Services secretary under then-President George W. Bush, and ran briefly for president in 2008. | https://www.darientimes.com/news/article/Thompson-and-Trump-meet-to-talk-politics-17049815.php | 2022-04-01T01:31:02Z |
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. (AP) — About $7 million worth of surplus personal protective equipment and cleaning supplies purchased by a Northern California county was left outside during a rainstorm because no one anticipated wet weather to start so early in the season, according to an investigation released Thursday.
After a KGO-TV news report showed hundreds of drenched cardboard boxes, San Mateo County officials acknowledged the supplies were moved outside an event center last September to make room for a conference.
There was no definitive timeline for how the supplies would be distributed “even though the Fall rainy season was not far off,” the probe by James Lianides said. County officials said they hired the retired school superintendent to conduct the inquiry because of his experience dealing with large organizations and purchasing practices.
Lianides said the boxes of non-medical-grade gowns, face shields and goggles as well as cleaning supplies were also moved out of the event center to avoid the $100,000-per-month storage fee.
“It does not appear that there were any discussions or actions taken in the process of (moving) to protect the equipment in the event of inclement weather, such as wrapping or covering each pallet,” he wrote.
The county's executive officer, Mike Callagy, has said the county purchased the items early in the pandemic when PPE was becoming scarce nationwide so that local first responders and medical providers would have what they needed. The demand for the equipment decreased as the pandemic continued.
The county’s supply of gloves and masks — including N95 and KN95 respirators — are stored indoors.
“What’s clear is that that this shouldn’t have happened. What is equally clear is we are taking the steps necessary to make sure that we put the checks and balances in place so this never happens again,” Callagy said in a statement Thursday.
An inspection of the damaged boxes determined that most of the safety equipment remains usable because they were packed in sealed plastic wrapping, the probe found. Equipment that could not be salvaged were worth about $128,000, according to Lianides. | https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/Report-Rain-not-anticipated-when-7M-in-PPE-17049873.php | 2022-04-01T01:31:02Z |
I held off on writing this column for as long as I could, but the time has come.
This will be my last official column as a co-sports editor of the Beloit Daily News.
Nearly 10 years ago, I walked through the doors of the now-vacant building on State Street having no idea what I was in for.
What I got, in every way, was way more than I could've hope for.
It was the ol' ill-advised career reset at age 34. But the truth of the matter was, I didn't have much of a career at that point. Since leaving the baseball industry in 2004, I floated aimlessly through the corporate world, looking for a place I could call home.
I never found it. Where I did find joy was doing the side hustle of broadcasting high school games for AM 1490, and occasionally freelancing for Jim Franz at the Daily News.
When word came around that Marc Correnti was leaving his post, and the BDN was looking for someone to fill in temporarily while they search for a long-term replacement.
And guess what? I was freshly out of work. Perfect timing.
I passed the two-week audition and started officially just in time for fall sports. I quickly fell into the rhythm of the seasons. Friday nights at the football field, Tuesday afternoons at the cross country course, Thursday's at the volleyball court, Saturdays, I don't know, maybe a golf course?
After a few weeks break, more of the same in the winter. Basketball, my favorite sport to cover, literally every day but Sunday. Wrestling, an occasional swim meet. A hockey rink, just to mix things up.
On to the spring, and by now I've spent so many March and April days, shivering in the dugout of a baseball or softball field, praying for a space heater and wondering why the WIAA didn't adopt a fifth season called 'not freezing'.
When you're in this job, if you want to do it right, you pretty much have to work every day, at least August through early June. If you don't, you're missing out on a kid or a team that deserves coverage.
It has gotten easier, for better or worse. When we shut down the Saturday paper, I went from 52 Friday nights per year to about 40. That was an improvement. Technology made it easier to work from home and be more efficient, but boy I missed putting Friday night lights into a Saturday print edition.
If the job doesn't seem glamourous, it's because it's not. But boy oh boy, did I love it.
I loved the feeling of walking into a gym and immediately seeing 100 familiar faces. I loved prowling the sidelines on Friday nights. I loved seeing packed student sections, smelling popcorn and hearing the pep band.
I loved sitting on a camping chair down the right field line on a 75-degree day in May and watching baseball or softball teams work their way towards the playoffs. And those years where the Legion team was rolling? Boy, was that great.
I loved forming relationships with coaches, some of whom have turned into close friends. Heck, I'm even friendly with a few referees and umpires these days. When it comes to prep sports, we're all in this together.
But mostly the thing that kept me coming back, despite the meager wages and hours of unused vacation at the end of every year? That was the kids. The athletes that I so loved watching compete every year.
About halfway through my tenure, I introduced the "Pic with Flick," and it's by far the best thing I've done here. The chance to give these kids recognition where they live (i.e. on social media) has brought them, and me, a lot of joy through the years.
Getting the details of the story was correct was important. Spelling names correctly was important. But being able to tell an athlete how awesome they were, how proud they should be of themselves? How proud I was, in some cases? That was the most important thing for me. I never knew who, but I knew in some cases, I was the only person telling them that. That's the stuff that matters.
Favorites? I've had a few. The Hononegah girls basketball team of 2019 that included Jordan King, Cali Schmitz and Julia Burns was simply incredible, and watching Jordan play is still one of my favorite things to this day.
Football studs like Matthew Wedig, Ryan Van Schelven, Gage Boegli, and so many more kept Friday nights fun.
That Turner softball team that included the Packards and the Mikkelsons along with Trinity Fry and Summer Amman, I will never forget them.
How about that time Jennifer Njoo knocked Clinton out of the playoffs with a buzzer-beater for Turner? Or what about Gus Foster leading his Big Foot team with a shot for the ages of his own? Carly Mohns leading Brodhead to state? All amazing.
I've been blessed enough to tell those stories for the past decade. To write about it. To stream it live on Twitter. To get to know these kids. To take action shots, then buddy it up with them on Instagram.
I've now watched these kids turn from high school stars to college graduates, from three-point bombers to super-moms, from gridiron savages to business owners.
I've been so blessed to do it all. Some major thank-you's are now due. Thank you to Bill Barth, the former editor-in-chief here, who along with Jim, took a chance on me.
Thank you to Rob Lucas, one of my best friends and the guy who set me up with this job in the first place. Sorry Rob, no more annual free wings.
Eternal thanks to Jim Franz, who put up with my scatterbrain for 10 years, taught me a ton and has given so much to area athletes over the years that it's impossible to compute. If you see him, thank him. He deserves every bit of that Hall of Fame recognition he finally received.
Lastly, thanks to all the kids and parents who have done their part to make me feel special over the years. It's the thing I'll miss the most. I've heard a lot of 'You mean so much to the kids.' Over the years. Funny thing, though. It was the opposite.
Come out and see me at Beloit's crown jewel, ABC Supply Stadium. I'm the new PR director of the Sky Carp, and I can't wait for what the future brings.
I've loved watching your kids compete. Now, it's time to watch mine. | https://www.beloitdailynews.com/sports/column-flickinger-says-goodbye-to-daily-news/article_0fed1e56-ae29-11ec-8f01-c7f3b111dfee.html | 2022-04-01T01:31:04Z |
‘She-shed’ destroyed in North East fire

LOS ANGELES (AFP) – Australia’s Minji Lee shared a first-round lead at the LPGA Chevron Championships on Thursday with Jennifer Kupcho in six-under par 66 with six birdies.
Lee birdied all four par-fives at the Dinah Shore Tournament Course in Mission Hills in Rancho Mirage, California, which is hosting the coveted Women’s Major for the last time.
“It was perfect,” Lee said. “Conditions are great. Pouring greens rolls really well. I don’t think you can get better than that.”
The 25-year-old, ranked fourth in the world, is looking to clinch her second major title, her sixth LPGA crown and first major since winning the Evian Championships last year.

DJ Zedd is back to make people dance on the grass again with the return of Zedd in the Park festival this summer at L.A. State Historic Park.
General admission tickets go on sale April 6 for the July 8 festival taking place at the downtown L.A. venue that will include a headlining performance by Zedd, who previously performed at the 2019 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and just appeared at the 2022 Beyond Wonderland festival in San Bernardino.
Presale tickets are available as of April 5.
Joining Zedd for the electronic and pop music dance party at the park will be Canadian DJ duo Loud Luxury, along with DJs Wolfgang Gartner, Regard, GOJ!RA and Fernet.
The all-day festival is for those ages 18 and over and will also include art installations and food trucks.
Zedd in the Park launched in 2018 and returned in 2019 before being sidelined by the COVID-19 pandemic until its 2022 return.
“I’m beyond thrilled Zedd In The Park is back! This is one of my favorite shows to play and I can’t wait to see everyone back at the park since the event has been on hiatus since 2019. It’s going to be an incredible experience with an awesome line-up,” Zedd said in a statement.

Russians leave Chernobyl site as fighting rages elsewhere
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian troops handed control of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant back to the Ukrainians and left the heavily contaminated site early Friday, more than a month after taking it over, Ukrainian authorities said, as fighting raged on the outskirts of Kyiv and other fronts.
Ukraine's state power company, Energoatom, said the pullout at Chernobyl came after soldiers received “significant doses" of radiation from digging trenches in the forest in the exclusion zone around the closed plant. But there was no independent confirmation of that.
The withdrawal took place amid growing indications the Kremlin is using talk of de-escalation in Ukraine as cover while regrouping, resupplying its forces and redeploying them for a stepped-up offensive in the eastern part of the country.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russian withdrawals from the north and center of the country were just a military tactic and that the forces are building up for new powerful attacks in the southeast.

“We know their intentions,” Zelenskyy said in his nightly video address to the nation. “We know that they are moving away from those areas where we hit them in order to focus on other, very important ones where it may be difficult for us.”
As Russia sees tech brain drain, other nations hope to gain
VILNIUS, Lithuania (AP) — Russia’s tech workers are looking for safer and more secure professional pastures.
By one estimate, up to 70,000 computer specialists, spooked by a sudden frost in the business and political climate, have bolted the country since Russia invaded Ukraine five weeks ago. Many more are expected to follow.
For some countries, Russia’s loss is being seen as their potential gain and an opportunity to bring fresh expertise to their own high-tech industries.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has noticed the brain drain even in the throes of a war that, according to the U.N. refugee agency, has caused more than 4 million people to flee Ukraine and displaced millions more within the country.
This week, Putin reacted to the exodus of tech professionals by approving legislation to eliminate income taxes between now and 2024 for individuals who work for information technology companies.
Trump's 8-hour gap: Minute-by-minute during Jan. 6 riot
WASHINGTON (AP) — A lot is known about the few hours that shook American democracy to the core. The defeated president’s incendiary speech, the march by an angry crowd to the U.S. Capitol, the breaking in, the beating of cops, the “hang Mike Pence” threats, the lawmakers running for their lives, the shooting death of rioter Ashli Babbitt. All of that chaos unfolded over about eight hours on one day: Jan. 6, 2021.
But for all that is known about the day, piecing together the words and actions of Donald Trump over that time has proved no easy task, even though a president's movements and communications are closely monitored.
There’s a gap in the official White House phone notations given to the House committee investigating Jan. 6 — from about 11 a.m. to about 7 p.m., according to two people familiar with the congressional investigation into the riot. Details may still turn up; the former president was known to use various cell phones and often bypassed the White House switchboard, placing calls directly.
And over the past four-plus months a lot has surfaced about what Trump did do and say on Jan. 6 — in texts, tweets, videos, calls and other conversations.
The following account is based on testimony, timelines and eyewitness reporting gathered by The Associated Press and The Washington Post and CBS News, and from officials and people familiar with the events who spoke to The AP on condition of anonymity.
Biden oil move aims to cut gas prices 'fairly significantly'
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Thursday ordered the release of 1 million barrels of oil per day from the nation’s strategic petroleum reserve for six months, a bid to control energy prices that have spiked after the United States and allies imposed steep sanctions on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.
The president said it was not known how much gasoline prices could decline as a result of his move, but he suggested it might be “anything from 10 cents to 35 cents a gallon.” Gas is averaging about $4.23 a gallon, compared with $2.87 a year ago, according to AAA.
“The bottom line is if we want lower gas prices we need to have more oil supply right now,” Biden said. “This is a moment of consequence and peril for the world, and pain at the pump for American families.”
The president also wants Congress to impose financial penalties on oil and gas companies that lease public lands but are not producing. He said he will invoke the Defense Production Act to encourage the mining of critical minerals for batteries in electric vehicles, part of a broader push to shift toward cleaner energy sources and reduce the use of fossil fuels.
The actions show that oil remains a vulnerability for the U.S. Higher prices have hurt Biden’s approval domestically and added billions of oil-export dollars to the Russian government as it wages war on Ukraine.
Report: US military must do more to avoid civilian deaths
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. military needs to adjust its planning, training, targeting and use of weapons in order to better avoid widespread civilian deaths and damage such as the devastating 2017 battle to liberate the Syrian city of Raqqa from Islamic State militants, a new RAND report said Thursday.
The report requested by the Pentagon reflects criticism of the military's airstrike campaign that, according to some estimates, killed more than 1,600 civilians in Raqqa, as the U.S.-led coalition worked to destroy the Islamic State caliphate that wrested control of large swaths of Iraq and Syria.
Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said the report, which lays out a series of recommendations to improve military procedures and strategy, will be used as the department develops its own broader plan to reduce civlian harm.
“No other military works as hard as we do to mitigate civilian harm, and yet we still cause it,” said Kirby. ”We're going to continue to try to learn from past issues.”
RAND concluded that the battle for Raqqa provided important lessons.
Scientists finally finish decoding entire human genome
Scientists say they have finally assembled the full genetic blueprint for human life, adding the missing pieces to a puzzle nearly completed two decades ago.
An international team described the first-ever sequencing of a complete human genome – the set of instructions to build and sustain a human being – in research published Thursday in the journal Science. The previous effort, celebrated across the world, was incomplete because DNA sequencing technologies of the day weren't able to read certain parts of it. Even after updates, it was missing about 8% of the genome.
“Some of the genes that make us uniquely human were actually in this ‘dark matter of the genome’ and they were totally missed,” said Evan Eichler, a University of Washington researcher who participated in the current effort and the original Human Genome Project. “It took 20-plus years, but we finally got it done.”
Many — including Eichler's own students — thought it had been finished already. “I was teaching them, and they said, 'Wait a minute. Isn’t this like the sixth time you guys have declared victory? I said, ’No, this time we really, really did it!”
Scientists said this full picture of the genome will give humanity a greater understanding of our evolution and biology while also opening the door to medical discoveries in areas like aging, neurodegenerative conditions, cancer and heart disease.
Amazon staff reject union in Alabama, lean toward it in NYC
NEW YORK (AP) — Amazon workers in Alabama appear to have rejected a union bid in a tight race, according to early results on Thursday. But outstanding challenged votes could change the outcome.
In New York, union supporters have the edge in a count that will continue Friday morning.
Warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama, voted 993 to 875 against forming a union. The National Labor Relations Board, which oversees the election, said that 416 challenged votes could potentially overturn that result. A hearing to go through the challenged ballots will occur in the next few days.
Meanwhile, in a separate union election in Staten Island, New York, the nascent Amazon Labor Union is leading by more than 350 votes out of about 2,670 tallied.
The close election in Bessemer marks a sharp contrast to last year, when Amazon workers overwhelmingly rejected the union.
California reparations plan advances movement, advocates say
DETROIT (AP) — In the long debate over whether Black Americans should be granted reparations for the atrocity and injustices of slavery and racism, California took a big step this week toward becoming the first U.S. state to make some form of restitution a reality.
The state's reparations task force tackled the divisive issue of which Black residents should be eligible — it narrowly decided in favor of limiting compensation to the descendants of free and enslaved Black people who were in the U.S. in the 19th century.
Whether Tuesday's vote by the task force spurs other states and cities to advance their own proposals, and whether they adopt California’s still controversial standard for who would benefit, remains to be seen. Some veteran reparations advocates disagree strongly with proposals to limiting eligibility to only Black people who can prove they have enslaved ancestors, while excluding those who cannot and leaving out victims of other historic injustices, such as redlining and mass incarceration.
Still, one advocate noted California's move is a step that could lend momentum to stalled reparation proposals elsewhere in the U.S.
“It’s precipitated a debate and it will influence communities,” said Ron Daniels, president of The Institute of the Black World 21st Century and administrator of the National African American Reparations Commission, an advocacy group of scholars and activists.
Oscars producer says police offered to arrest Will Smith
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Oscars producer Will Packer said Los Angeles police were ready to arrest Will Smith after Smith slapped Chris Rock on the Academy Awards stage.
“They were saying, you know, this is battery, was a word they used in that moment," Packer said in a clip released by ABC News Thursday night of an interview he gave to “Good Morning America.” “They said we will go get him. We are prepared. We’re prepared to get him right now. You can press charges, we can arrest him. They were laying out the options.”
But Packer said Rock was “very dismissive” of the idea.
“He was like, ‘No, no, no, I’m fine,” Packer said. "And even to the point where I said, ‘Rock, let them finish.’ The LAPD officers finished laying out what his options were and they said, ‘Would you like us to take any action?’ And he said no.”
The LAPD said in a statement after Sunday night's ceremony that they were aware of the incident, and that Rock had declined to file a police report. The department declined comment Thursday on Packer's interview, a longer version of which will air on Friday morning.
South Carolina's Aliyah Boston wins AP player of the year
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Aliyah Boston dominated women's college basketball on both ends of the court this season.
The junior forward helped South Carolina go wire-to-wire as the No. 1 team in the country, putting up an SEC-record 27 consecutive double-doubles, and she has helped put the Gamecocks two wins away from the program's second national championship.
Boston was honored as The Associated Press women's basketball player of the year on Thursday. She is the second player from South Carolina to be recognized with the award, joining former Gamecocks great A'ja Wilson.
“Not often do you get the complete package. I think this recognition is for what she was able to do on both sides of the ball,” South Carolina coach Dawn Staley said. “The player of the year is usually for offensive-minded people who think that when you put the ball in the hole, you should be bestowed the player of the year. She’s the full package. Every single day.”
Boston's parents and aunt as well as the entire South Carolina team were in the audience of the ceremony that also honored AP Coach of the Year Kim Mulkey.

PANAMA CITY, Fla. WEATHER (WMBB) – Rainy conditions have taken a standstill for a moment, as high pressure visits the Panhandle again Friday.
Overnight conditions will be mostly calm Thursday night as winds shift out of the north at 10 mph. Breeziness from earlier in the day Thursday should calm moving into Friday.
Friday’s temperatures will increase into the lower and mid-70s, while beach and boating conditions will still need time to settle over the weekend.
Beach waves heights will range between 4-6′, with a high rip current risk continuing.
Slight rain chances return for Saturday along the shoreline, as a stationary front lingers in the northern Gulf.

The surprising move by Muqtada al-Sadr comes against the backdrop of a persisting political deadlock in Iraq, five months after general elections.
Also Read | Imran Khan No-Trust Vote: Pakistan PM Names US As Country Behind Threat in 'Slip of Tongue' (Watch Video).
Al-Sadr's offer came in a tweet, in which he also called on his followers not to interfere “neither positively not negatively” as his rivals form the Coordination Framework, a coalition of Iran-backed Shiite parties, try to cobble together a Cabinet.
This translates into a nod to al-Sadr's rivals to pursue the cleric's Kurdish and Sunni allies in possible negotiations.
There was no immediate response from the Coordination Framework to al-Sadr's offer.
Also Read | Pakistan PM Imran Khan Refuses to Resign, Says 3 Stooges Working With Foreign Powers Against Govt.
Iraqi political parties are at an impasse, and al-Sadr — the winner of the election — has been unable to form a coalition government.
He has assailed his rivals, saying they “obstructed and are still obstructing” the process.
The parties are at odds over the choice of candidate for president, an obstacle that may also extend to the premiership.
It is also not clear which party constitutes the largest bloc in parliament because of unclear and shifting loyalties of some lawmakers and parties.
The 40-day window offered by al-Sadr would start on the first day of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, expected to begin this weekend, depending on the sighting of the new moon.
The Islamic calendar is a lunar one, meaning the timeframe offered by al-Sadr would stretch beyond Ramadan, when observant Muslims fast from dawn to dusk.
The development is “a clear challenge and dare" directed at his rivals while also being a “test of partners,” tweeted Farhad Alaaldin, chairman of the Iraq Advisory Council, a policy research institute.
It was not immediately clear how sincere al-Sadr's offer was.
The cleric, with a strong grassroots base, won the largest number of seats in the election but not enough to declare a parliamentary majority.
Iran-aligned parties, including that belonging to former Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, have become his chief rivals.
A parliament session last Saturday failed to reach the two-thirds quorum necessary to elect a president.
It was largely boycotted by lawmakers associated with the Coordination Framework.
Al-Sadr's move is a gamble: A failure by the Coordination Framework would give his party, Sairoon, significant leverage, but its success would relegate al-Sadr's party to the role of the opposition.

No jail for LA building owner over explosion that hurt 12
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The owner of a downtown Los Angeles building where an explosion injured 12 firefighters has been allowed to enter a judicial diversion program that allows him to avoid jail time and potentially have all charges dismissed.
A court commissioner on Wednesday granted the diversion request for Steve Sungho Lee. He and his companies must pay more than $125,000 in investigative fees, make sure the property meets fire and building codes and arranging for Fire Department training.
Lee owned a commercial building on East Boyd Street in the city’s Toy District that caught fire on May 16, 2020. Firefighters had to run for their lives when a ball of flames shot out the building and scorched a fire truck across the street.
Firefighters inside the building had to run through a wall of flames he estimated as 30 feet (9 meters) high and wide, and those on the roof scrambled down a ladder that was engulfed in fire.
Fire officials said the building was a warehouse for Smoke Tokes, a wholesale distributor of supplies for smoking and vaping products including butane hash oil, a concentrated cannabis extract that can be eaten, smoked or vaped. Highly flammable butane is used in the manufacturing process.
Most of the injured firefighters still haven’t returned to work and one, Capt. Victor Aguirre, was hospitalized for more than two months and all of his fingers had to be partially amputated, according to a lawsuit he filed against the building and business owners.
Aguirre alleged that the area contained “hundreds of illegally and improperly stored butane canisters and thousands of illegally and improperly stored nitrous oxide cylinders.”
A fire department report concluded that the blaze, which spread to a nearby building, was fueled by an “excessive quantity” of the containers.
Investigators from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives concluded that the fire started under a storage rack in the building and that a worker with a lit cigarette was seen in the area. The cause of the fire was ruled accidental.
However, city prosecutors filed more than 300 misdemeanor charges of violating fire and safety codes against Lee, his companies and owners of businesses in the building and nearby properties. That included more than 160 counts against Lee and his companies.
If Lee meets all conditions of his judicial diversion program for two years, the charges will be dismissed.
“Mr. Lee will be deemed by law to have never been charged,” said his attorney, Blair Berk. “The exhaustive federal investigation of the tragic fire objectively concluded that the cause was accidental, and there was no finding of any wrongdoing by Mr. Lee or his companies.”
City Attorney Mike Feuer opposed diversion for Lee, noting the severity of the fire, the injuries suffered by the firefighters and Lee’s alleged failure “to take steps which could have mitigated the extent of the blaze.”
The owners of Smoke Tokes and another business, Green Buddha, agreed in November 2020 to pay $139,000 each to cover investigative costs and to move out of the building. Charges against them were later dismissed. | https://www.mymotherlode.com/news/state/2449969/no-jail-for-la-building-owner-over-explosion-that-hurt-12.html | 2022-04-01T01:31:07Z |
OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — A $64.1 billion supplemental state budget that spends on statewide programs ranging from homelessness and behavioral health to the ongoing COVID-19 response was signed Thursday by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee.
The supplemental plan builds off of the $59 billion, two-year spending plan adopted by the Legislature last year, and benefited from the significant influx of revenues the state has seen over the past year. Additionally, lawmakers used more than $1 billion in remaining pandemic-related federal relief funds in the budget.
More than $800 million is allocated for homelessness and housing, including $50 million to transition unhoused people from unsanctioned camps to housing.
Inslee specifically called out the efforts on addressing homelessness, saying that lawmakers “gave us relief that is big, that is bold, and that is fast.”
While there are no general tax increases in the plan, there are also no across-the-board tax cuts, something Republicans had argued for throughout the legislative session that ended March 10.
“It’s been easy to explain to my constituents why Republicans opposed this budget – all I have to do is point to how the costs of living have continued to rise in the weeks since it was adopted, and the huge revenue surplus the Democrats had available,“ Republican Sen. Lynda Wilson said in a statement.
A small business tax credit was included that would affect about 125,000 small businesses in the state, and was among the bills signed by Inslee Thursday.
Starting in January, businesses making less than $125,000 a year would pay no state business taxes, and those making up to $250,000 a year, business taxes will be cut in half.
The supplemental operating budget also spends state or federal money on things like adding more social supports like nurses and counselors for students, increasing rates to vendors providing services to people with developmental disabilities or long-term care needs and shoring up the state’s paid family leave program, which officials warned was nearing a deficit.
It also allots funding for raises for state workers. According to the Office of Financial Management, about 63,800 general government employees will get a 3.25% general wage increase, about 6,700 state corrections workers will get a 4% general wage increase and about 1,200 state patrol officers will get a 10% general wage increase. The last general wage increase for represented employees was July 1, 2020.
The operating budget also transfers more than $2 billion to the nearly $17 billion, 16-year transportation revenue package that Inslee signed last week. The plan leaves about $3 billion in total reserves.
Inslee had several full or partial vetoes of bills, including a section of a bill that would have expanded the state’s existing warehouse sales and use tax to include smaller warehouses of at least 100,000 square feet. In his veto notice, Inslee said that while he understood the importance of manufacturing and warehousing to rural economies, he said the tax incentives in the bill were overly broad.
Inslee on Thursday also signed a $1.5 billion state construction budget that spends on areas ranging from housing, homelessness, behavioral health facilities, and seismic upgrades at public schools. | https://www.darientimes.com/news/article/Washington-governor-signs-64-1-billion-17049827.php | 2022-04-01T01:31:08Z |
Tommy Thompson, just weeks removed from leading the University of Wisconsin System, met with former President Donald Trump on Thursday for a talk about “Wisconsin politics,” a former aide said.
Thompson was elected to four terms as Wisconsin's governor, and earlier this year declined to rule out another bid. Thompson, 80, spent almost two years atop the university system before leaving earlier this month.
Bill McCoshen, a former chief of staff to Thompson when he served as governor, said the two met at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort.
“The primary topic was Wisconsin politics," McCoshen said. “They talked about the gubernatorial race, the Senate race and what it will take to win in Wisconsin. The topic of running for governor may have come up, but the purpose was to talk about Wisonsin politics more broadly.”
A Trump spokesman did not respond to a request for comment.
McCoshen said he expected Thompson to make a decision in April. The primary is in August. Former Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch, businessman Kevin Nicholson and state Rep. Timothy Ramthun are Republicans vying to take on Democratic Gov. Tony Evers.
Thompson was first elected to the Legislature in 1966 and was first elected governor in 1986. He resigned midway through his fourth term to serve as Health and Human Services secretary under then-President George W. Bush, and ran briefly for president in 2008. | https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/Thompson-and-Trump-meet-to-talk-politics-17049815.php | 2022-04-01T01:31:08Z |

BELOIT—The Beloit Even Start Family Literacy Program has been a positive factor in serving Beloit’s low-income families for more than three decades.
Currently housed in the Brother Dutton School at 717 Hackett St., Even Start is an educational program for low-income families that is designed to improve the academic achievement of young children and their parents, especially in the area of reading. Even Start offers promise for helping to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty.
Launched through the federal Even Start program that was initiated in 1988, Beloit’s program has continued to provide its vital services despite the fact that federal funding was discontinued in 2010.
“The Beloit Even Start Family Literacy Program has been serving families in Beloit for the past 31 years,” Cindy Laube, Even Start family literacy coordinator, said. “The program emerged through a collaboration between the School District of Beloit and Blackhawk Technical College. The Beloit Even Start helps break the cycle of illiteracy by integrating early childhood education, adult literacy or adult basic education, parenting education and family time.”
Laube added that the program helps children reach their full potential as learners while also helping their parents become full partners in their children’s education. In addition, Even Start provides education opportunities for parents.
“Besides the educational benefits, we also encourage our families to become involved in the community and to volunteer their time and talents,” Laube said. “This has had a positive impact for the city of Beloit and its residents.”
Currently, Llaube added, the School District of Beloit employs four bilingual Even Start alums as teachers, four as para educators and two as bilingual home school liaisons. The City of Beloit employs five Even Start alums, of which two are bilingual police officers.
“Several Even Start alums have opened businesses in Beloit including three restaurants and two food trucks. One owns a cleaning company, while four others have lawn service/landscape businesses and three own beauty salons,” Laube said.
Many of the Even Start high school graduates go on to colleges and technical schools, often with scholarships, Laube added.
“Look around Beloit, and you will see Even Start alums working at Beloit Memorial Hospital, in dental offices, clinics, nursing homes, churches, real estate offices, restaurants, businesses, grocery stores, more,” Laube concluded. “I believe that the Beloit Even Start Family Literacy Program is a hidden gem, and has contributed to helping make Beloit a richly diverse community.”
Even Start offers adults free English as a second language classes that also includes childcare and educational instruction and opportunities for their children from birth to age 4. In previous years, parents could also take GED courses. There are four components of the program: adult education, early childhood education, parent time and interactive literacy activities.
While parents are in an adult education classroom learning English, children are in a separate, on-site early-learning environment that fosters development of early literacy skills. The parent and child then participate in “family time” where they learn interactive literacy activities.
Blackhawk Technical College provides English language teaching through a federal grant managed by the State of Wisconsin.
Darien Snow, BTC learning support services manager said, “We have instructors who teach English from 8:30 to 10:45 a.m. five days a week at Even Start. This helps students transition more easily to employment or continued education programs. We work in tandem with the School District of Beloit, including time with parents and children in play time activities.”
Together, BTC and the school district help ensure that Even Start families receive what they need to be more productive and successful members of the greater Beloit community.
“Two generational models are wonderful ways to support whole families,” Rachelle Elliott, director of early literacy and professional development for the School District of Beloit, said. “The parent and child are both getting services to better their lives. Parents receive educational courses and career counseling to better their economic stability from Blackhawk Technical College. The children get early childhood programming from The School District of Beloit. When the classroom comes together the magic happens. Family time is when the parents, students, and staff come together for parent strategies and interactive learning strategies. This is a beautiful time to make personal connections and life-long memories.”
The overall goal is to give families access to educational opportunities and support to create a literacy-rich home environment, Elliott added.
“Our goal is to enhance and develop academic achievement and success with all Even Start families in school and in life,” she concluded. | https://www.beloitdailynews.com/yearbook/even-start-gives-families-a-head-start-on-a-better-future/article_65d90e50-8f58-11ec-8012-eb803755de6f.html | 2022-04-01T01:31:10Z |
Pakistan completed their highest successful run chase in one-day internationals when they chased down a mammoth target of 349 to beat Australia by six wickets in Lahore to level the series at 1-1 on Thursday.
Centuries from skipper Babar Azam (114) and opener Imam-ul-Haq (106) allowed the hosts to reach the total on a pitch that aided batting.

Imam and Fakhar Zaman (67) gave Pakistan a solid foundation with an opening stand of 118 before Babar walked on and helped Imam build another century partnership as Australia, who used seven bowlers in total, failed to contain the flow of runs.
Pakistan still needed to score 70 off the last 10 overs and when they lost Babar in the 45th over, Mohammad Rizwan kept the score ticking over before he was dismissed for 23, leaving worried faces in…

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A former minor league pitcher ran a major league illegal sports betting operation in California that used other former pro athletes to take bets and took wagers from players still in the game, federal prosecutors said Thursday.
Wayne Nix, who threw for Oakland Athletics farm teams, used his connections to recruit three former Major League Baseball players and a former pro football player as fellow bookies, prosecutors said.
The MLB began looking into the matter when it learned of it Thursday, but was unaware any of those involved other than Nix, a spokesman said.
Court records offered no names of the players who worked for Nix or those who placed bets with his business, but they provide a glimpse of the kind of money being wagered, earned and lost.
A professional football player paid Nix $245,000 for gambling losses in 2016. An MLB coach paid $4,000 in losses that same year. It was not disclosed if either bet on their own games or their own sports.
People are also reading…
MLB prohibits players from betting on baseball or gambling illegally on sports. They can bet on other sports if it’s legal. The National Football League policy bars all personnel from betting on football games.
A Los Angeles check cashing business that has agreed to plead guilty to failing to prevent money laundering in the scheme cashed over $18 million in checks from two single bettors, prosecutors said.
One client wagered $5 million on the Super Bowl but it was not revealed if that gambit paid off.
Sports betting is legal in 30 states, but not in California. However, voters will have a chance to legalize it at the polls in November.
Nix, 45, has agreed to plead guilty to conspiring to run an illegal gambling operation and faces up to eight years in prison. He also admitted he failed to report $1.4 million in income in 2017 and 2018. He has agreed to pay back taxes and interest of $1.25 million and forfeit $1.3 million seized from bank accounts.
Nix began the sports bookmaking business about 20 years ago after his six-year minor league career — with stops in Arizona, Texas and California — ended, prosecutors said.
His client list was created from contacts he had made in the sports world and included current and former pro athletes. The agents he hired helped expand that clientele.
The operation eventually began using a Costa Rican business, Sand Island Sports, to create accounts where bets could be placed and tracked and credit limits set, prosecutors said. Bets were placed online or through a call center, though Nix paid winners and kept most of the money from losing bets.
Those who exceeded credit limits were shut off, though exceptions were made, according to court documents.
A sports broadcaster's account was reactivated in February 2019 after he told Nix he was refinancing his home mortgage to pay off his gambling debts.
In September 2019, Nix increased the credit limit to a baseball player with debts so he could make additional bets.
In November, 2019, Nix's partner, Edon Kagasoff, told a business manager for a professional basketball player that he would increase the maximum wager he could place to $25,000 per NBA game.
Kagasoff, 44, faces the same conspiracy charge as Nix. He also agreed to plead guilty and forfeit over $3 million in funds seized from his home and bank accounts.

David Price waiting to see how Dodgers will deploy his arm
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — The pain was sharp and familiar. It reminded David Price of where he has been. It also told him he still might be able to be the pitcher the Los Angeles Dodgers thought they had nearly 26 months ago.
Price’s quiet spring began the way others have in the five-time All-Star’s 13-year career: His left elbow hurt after his first live batting practice a couple of weeks ago, and he knew the resumption of an old routine was underway.
“Always the elbow,’’ Price said. “It happens every year, all the way back to 2010. Now, everything feels good – arm, elbow and shoulder.’’
It was good enough to impress Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and anybody else who watched Price make his first spring appearance against Cleveland on Wednesday night. The left-hander worked only an inning, but he had two strikeouts and was clocked at 93 mph.
In an abbreviated camp, it wasn’t enough to determine his role. It did remind the Dodgers that Price is still in the mix.
From starter to bullpen, Price’s role with the Dodgers has been uncertain since they acquired the 2012 American League Cy Young Award winner from the Boston Red Sox in a three-team deal that included right-fielder Mookie Betts in February 2020.
Price didn’t pitch at all that year, opting out because of concerns about COVID-19. In 2021, he bounced between the starting rotation and the bullpen with 11 starts and 28 appearances as a reliever. His overall ERA was 4.03.
He arrived at camp in mid-March ready to do anything. Then Roberts mentioned him as a possible starter.
“I’m preparing that way, yeah,” said Price, who is in the final year of a seven-year, $217 million contract. “I think it’d be silly of me to prepare to be a reliever if I’m asked to start. So, I’m preparing to be a starter until otherwise.”
Otherwise looks to be the case. Roberts projects his starting rotation will be Walker Buehler, Julio Urias, Clayton Kershaw, Andrew Heaney and Tony Gonsolin. He cautioned that nothing is set in stone, mostly because pitchers were limited in a camp cut short by major league baseball’s lockout.
The Dodgers signed career starter Tyler Anderson in mid-March, just in case. As for Price, Roberts said: “I just think that David, right now, is not an option in the sense of, he’s not built up. It just doesn’t seem feasible right now.”
The 36-year-old left-hander could still have an immediate role, like one inning in relief early in the season, Roberts said, and moving up to multiple innings as he gets stronger.
“I’m confident in David in any role,’’ Roberts said. “I like his versatility. The role doesn’t matter. It’s just knowing that he’s going to pitch valuable innings in whatever role.”
NOTES
Cody Bellinger took batting practice Thursday on the minor-league side of the Dodgers’ camp. The 2019 National League MVP is 4 for 27 with 17 strikeouts this spring.
“I wouldn’t say I’m alarmed,’’ Roberts said. “I think ‘progressing’ is the word. We’ve got to continue to log at-bats to make him feel as comfortable as possible when the season starts.’’

BOSTON (AP) — After a 15-year career in which he etched his name on the Stanley Cup and the Vezina Trophy, Tuukka Rask is focusing now on avoiding the rink.
“Don’t even go there. Not yet,” the retired Bruins goalie said Thursday night when asked if his daughters had taken up hockey. “They’re into dance and whatnot. If I have to go and spend my days at hockey rinks, so be it. But not really at the top of my list.”
A two-time All-Star, and the winner of the 2014 Vezina as the NHL’s top goalie, Rask announced his retirement last month after a setback in his attempt to come back from a torn labrum in his hip. The Bruins invited him back to drop the ceremonial first puck before Thursday night’s game against the New Jersey Devils, and again – perhaps for the last time – the chants of “Tuuuuk!” echoed through the TD Garden.
Rask took the ice with his wife, and their three daughters dressed for a ballet class. He bumped fists with the players on the Bruins bench while both teams tapped their sticks on the ice to salute him.
“I don’t know what the future holds,” Rask told reporters beforehand, saying that he would be showing up at games and golf outings as a team ambassador. “Maybe I’ll get into coaching. Maybe not, but for now, I’ll be hanging out with sponsors.”
The franchise’s all-time leader in wins, Rask helped the Bruins allow the fewest goals in the NHL in the pandemic-interrupted 2019-20 season, when Boston finished with the most points in the league. He injured his hip during the 2021 playoffs and worked his way back to the team midway through this season.
But after just four starts, he aggravated his injury on Jan. 24 against the Anaheim Ducks. Two weeks later, he announced he was through.
“It was kind of time to be honest with yourself,” he said. “I just figured it was better for everybody to call it. I had a great career. No regrets.”
While his hip still has some good days, Rask said no one could talk him out of retirement. His immediate future will involve as much golf as he can squeeze in between shuttling his daughters to dance class and school.
He may need a hip replacement at some point.
“It was at a point where it affected my everyday life,” Rask said. “I’m a guy who makes pretty quick decisions, anyway. So I wasn’t dwelling on it too long.”
Rask was 308-165-66 with a 2.28 goals-against average and .921 save percentage in a franchise-leading 564 games. He was the backup goalie for the Bruins team that won it all in 2011, and he led the team to Stanley Cup Final appearances in 2013 and ’19.
Although coaching is not in his plans, Rask said he would be available if Bruins goalie Jeremy Swayman wants him.
“I told him right after I retired: Tell me if you need anything,” Rask said. “Just make sure you don’t get too high or too low.”

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — A $64.1 billion supplemental state budget that spends on statewide programs ranging from homelessness and behavioral health to the ongoing COVID-19 response was signed Thursday by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee.
The supplemental plan builds off of the $59 billion, two-year spending plan adopted by the Legislature last year, and benefited from the significant influx of revenues the state has seen over the past year. Additionally, lawmakers used more than $1 billion in remaining pandemic-related federal relief funds in the budget.
More than $800 million is allocated for homelessness and housing, including $50 million to transition unhoused people from unsanctioned camps to housing.
Inslee specifically called out the efforts on addressing homelessness, saying that lawmakers “gave us relief that is big, that is bold, and that is fast.”
While there are no general tax increases in the plan, there are also no across-the-board tax cuts, something Republicans had argued for throughout the legislative session that ended March 10.
“It’s been easy to explain to my constituents why Republicans opposed this budget – all I have to do is point to how the costs of living have continued to rise in the weeks since it was adopted, and the huge revenue surplus the Democrats had available,“ Republican Sen. Lynda Wilson said in a statement.
A small business tax credit was included that would affect about 125,000 small businesses in the state, and was among the bills signed by Inslee Thursday.
Starting in January, businesses making less than $125,000 a year would pay no state business taxes, and those making up to $250,000 a year, business taxes will be cut in half.
The supplemental operating budget also spends state or federal money on things like adding more social supports like nurses and counselors for students, increasing rates to vendors providing services to people with developmental disabilities or long-term care needs and shoring up the state’s paid family leave program, which officials warned was nearing a deficit.
It also allots funding for raises for state workers. According to the Office of Financial Management, about 63,800 general government employees will get a 3.25% general wage increase, about 6,700 state corrections workers will get a 4% general wage increase and about 1,200 state patrol officers will get a 10% general wage increase. The last general wage increase for represented employees was July 1, 2020.
The operating budget also transfers more than $2 billion to the nearly $17 billion, 16-year transportation revenue package that Inslee signed last week. The plan leaves about $3 billion in total reserves.
Inslee had several full or partial vetoes of bills, including a section of a bill that would have expanded the state’s existing warehouse sales and use tax to include smaller warehouses of at least 100,000 square feet. In his veto notice, Inslee said that while he understood the importance of manufacturing and warehousing to rural economies, he said the tax incentives in the bill were overly broad.
Inslee on Thursday also signed a $1.5 billion state construction budget that spends on areas ranging from housing, homelessness, behavioral health facilities, and seismic upgrades at public schools. | https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/Washington-governor-signs-64-1-billion-17049827.php | 2022-04-01T01:31:14Z |

BELOIT—Youth wrestling clubs have long been a fixture in the Stateline Area, and a little thing like a global pandemic wasn’t going to slow them down.
Both the Hononegah Kids Club wrestlers and the Beloit Area Youth Wrestling Club (BAY) are going strong even through the adverse conditions of the last couple of years.
The Hononegah Kids Club, with the slogan “One tribe, one family” has been active for decades. Leading the charge is Tony and Erica Cassioppi and you don’t have to look very far to see why they are excellent choices to lead the club.
Their oldest son Tony is one of the top heavyweights in the country, wrestling for the University of Iowa. Giovanni wrestles at Northern Colorado, and daughters Rose and Angelina just captured state titles at the first ever IHSA Girls Wrestling State Meet.
The Hononegah club runs from kindergarten to eighth grade, with the club split into two age groups, both of which practice twice per week.
The club not only provides instruction, it helps wrestlers register for meets and makes them aware of any additional opportunities.
While the Cassioppi’s run the program, they couldn’t do it without the help of several volunteer coaches that assist both during practice and at meets.
At a tournament in Fort Atkinson, the older Indians excelled, going 10-1 with the 10 and over age group.
The club didn’t officially meet in the spring of 2021, but

BOSTON (AP) — A bill aimed at banning discrimination based on natural and protective hairstyles in workplaces, school districts, and school-related organizations was unanimously approved Thursday by the Massachusetts Senate.
The vote comes two weeks after the Massachusetts House approved a similar bill.
Supporters say Black women in particular have faced pressure in school and the workplace to alter their hair to conform to policies biased against natural hairstyles.
The Senate added a provision to the House version of the bill that would include the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association to the list of school entities banned from adopting and implementing restrictions on natural hairstyles.
Advocates say the change will ensure those participating in sports and extracurricular activities will not be asked to change their natural or protective hairstyles in order to participate.
The bill has its roots in the case of a Massachusetts charter school that came under fire in 2017 for a policy of banning hair braid extensions. After intense criticism, the school abandoned the policy.
People are also reading…
The U.S. House also approved a bill earlier this month that would bar discrimination against Black people who wear hairstyles like Afros, cornrows or tightly coiled twists in society, school and the workplace. The federal bill would explicitly say that such discrimination is a violation of federal civil rights law.
President Joe Biden has said he would sign the bill into law. It now heads to the U.S. Senate.
Lawmakers in the Massachusetts House and Senate now have to come up with a single version of the bill before taking a final vote and shipping it to Republican Gov. Charlie Baker for his signature.
If signed into law, Massachusetts would become the fifteenth state to adopt the measure, known as the CROWN Act.

B1 cell-derived natural antibodies are non-specific polyreactive antibodies and can activate the complement pathway leading to lysis of enveloped virus particles before activation of the adaptive immune response. We investigated the relationship between natural antibody levels and treatment outcomes of 126 treatment-naïve chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, who underwent entecavir (ETV) treatment. Serum IgG1-3 and complement C3 levels were significantly higher in HBeAg-positive patients. In pre-treatment, IgG1 (odd ratios [OR] 2.3, p"‰<"‰0.0001), IgG2 (OR 9.8, p"‰<"‰0.0001), IgG3 (OR 7.4, p"‰<"‰0.0001), and C3 (OR 7.2, p"‰<"‰0.0001) were associated with HBeAg-positive patients. At baseline, IgG2 (OR 10.2, p"‰="‰0.025), IgG4, (OR 3.4, p"‰="‰0.026), and complement C1q (OR 5.0, p"‰="‰0.0068) were associated with seroconverters. Post-treatment levels of IgG1-4 and C3/C1q were also associated with HBeAg-positive patients and seroconverters. High levels of IgG2-4 and C1q were observed in seroconverters but not in virological responders. Thus, high pretreatment and post-treatment levels of natural antibody IgG1-4, complement C3, and/or C1q were significantly associated with HBeAg-positivity and HBeAg seroconverters in CHB patients with ETV treatment. These results suggest that the presence of preexisting host immunity against chronic hepatitis B is closely related to outcome of ETV treatment. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2556691649023/developing-a-cure-for-chronic-hepatitis-b-requires-a-fresh-approach | 2022-04-01T01:31:18Z |

Ex-minor leaguer ran major league sports betting operation
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A former minor league pitcher ran a major league illegal sports betting operation in California that used other former pro athletes to take bets and took wagers from players still in the game, federal prosecutors said Thursday.
Wayne Nix, who threw for Oakland Athletics farm teams, used his connections to recruit three former Major League Baseball players and a former pro football player as fellow bookies, prosecutors said.
The MLB began looking into the matter when it learned of it Thursday, but was unaware any of those involved other than Nix, a spokesman said.
Court records offered no names of the players who worked for Nix or those who placed bets with his business, but they provide a glimpse of the kind of money being wagered, earned and lost.
A professional football player paid Nix $245,000 for gambling losses in 2016. An MLB coach paid $4,000 in losses that same year. It was not disclosed if either bet on their own games or their own sports.
MLB prohibits players from betting on baseball or gambling illegally on sports. They can bet on other sports if it’s legal. The National Football League policy bars all personnel from betting on football games.
A Los Angeles check cashing business that has agreed to plead guilty to failing to prevent money laundering in the scheme cashed over $18 million in checks from two single bettors, prosecutors said.
One client wagered $5 million on the Super Bowl but it was not revealed if that gambit paid off.
Sports betting is legal in 30 states, but not in California. However, voters will have a chance to legalize it at the polls in November.
Nix, 45, has agreed to plead guilty to conspiring to run an illegal gambling operation and faces up to eight years in prison. He also admitted he failed to report $1.4 million in income in 2017 and 2018. He has agreed to pay back taxes and interest of $1.25 million and forfeit $1.3 million seized from bank accounts.
Nix began the sports bookmaking business about 20 years ago after his six-year minor league career — with stops in Arizona, Texas and California — ended, prosecutors said.
His client list was created from contacts he had made in the sports world and included current and former pro athletes. The agents he hired helped expand that clientele.
The operation eventually began using a Costa Rican business, Sand Island Sports, to create accounts where bets could be placed and tracked and credit limits set, prosecutors said. Bets were placed online or through a call center, though Nix paid winners and kept most of the money from losing bets.
Those who exceeded credit limits were shut off, though exceptions were made, according to court documents.
A sports broadcaster’s account was reactivated in February 2019 after he told Nix he was refinancing his home mortgage to pay off his gambling debts.
In September 2019, Nix increased the credit limit to a baseball player with debts so he could make additional bets.
In November, 2019, Nix’s partner, Edon Kagasoff, told a business manager for a professional basketball player that he would increase the maximum wager he could place to $25,000 per NBA game.
Kagasoff, 44, faces the same conspiracy charge as Nix. He also agreed to plead guilty and forfeit over $3 million in funds seized from his home and bank accounts.

BOSTON (AP) — After a 15-year career in which he etched his name on the Stanley Cup and the Vezina Trophy, Tuukka Rask is focusing now on avoiding the rink.
“Don’t even go there. Not yet,” the retired Bruins goalie said Thursday night when asked if his daughters had taken up hockey. “They’re into dance and whatnot. If I have to go and spend my days at hockey rinks, so be it. But not really at the top of my list.”
A two-time All-Star, and the winner of the 2014 Vezina as the NHL’s top goalie, Rask announced his retirement last month after a setback in his attempt to come back from a torn labrum in his hip. The Bruins invited him back to drop the ceremonial first puck before Thursday night’s game against the New Jersey Devils, and again – perhaps for the last time – the chants of “Tuuuuk!” echoed through the TD Garden.
Rask took the ice with his wife, and their three daughters dressed for a ballet class. He bumped fists with the players on the Bruins bench while both teams tapped their sticks on the ice to salute him.
“I don’t know what the future holds,” Rask told reporters beforehand, saying that he would be showing up at games and golf outings as a team ambassador. “Maybe I’ll get into coaching. Maybe not, but for now, I’ll be hanging out with sponsors.”
The franchise’s all-time leader in wins, Rask helped the Bruins allow the fewest goals in the NHL in the pandemic-interrupted 2019-20 season, when Boston finished with the most points in the league. He injured his hip during the 2021 playoffs and worked his way back to the team midway through this season.
But after just four starts, he aggravated his injury on Jan. 24 against the Anaheim Ducks. Two weeks later, he announced he was through.
“It was kind of time to be honest with yourself,” he said. “I just figured it was better for everybody to call it. I had a great career. No regrets.”
While his hip still has some good days, Rask said no one could talk him out of retirement. His immediate future will involve as much golf as he can squeeze in between shuttling his daughters to dance class and school.
He may need a hip replacement at some point.
“It was at a point where it affected my everyday life,” Rask said. “I’m a guy who makes pretty quick decisions, anyway. So I wasn’t dwelling on it too long.”
Rask was 308-165-66 with a 2.28 goals-against average and .921 save percentage in a franchise-leading 564 games. He was the backup goalie for the Bruins team that won it all in 2011, and he led the team to Stanley Cup Final appearances in 2013 and ’19.
Although coaching is not in his plans, Rask said he would be available if Bruins goalie Jeremy Swayman wants him.
“I told him right after I retired: Tell me if you need anything,” Rask said. “Just make sure you don’t get too high or too low.”

'I want to be the guy': Former defensive end Braden Cassity appreciates role as OSU's top tight end
STILLWATER — Back in 2019, when he moved from defensive end to tight end, Oklahoma State’s Braden Cassity never envisioned the moment he currently finds himself in.
He wanted it, but he didn’t imagine it would become reality.
Now a senior, Cassity is the experienced veteran in the tight end group, the guy at the top of the depth chart who all the young players look to for guidance, particularly now as the Cowboys go through spring practice.
Growing up, Cassity had never played tight end or dedicated any time to catching passes. He was recruited to OSU as a defensive end.
He switched sides of the ball three years ago, because the Cowboys were lacking depth at tight end, having only three on the roster in Jelani Woods, Logan Carter and Dayton Metcalf.
Cassity didn’t expect to find himself in his current situation, “but I kind of manifested it,” he said. “It’s what I wanted to be. I met with (tight ends coach Jason McEndoo) a few times. When Jelani and Logan and Dayton were all still here, we didn’t know what was gonna go on — if they were leaving, if they were staying, what was happening.
“I sat down with him and I was like, ‘Coach, I want to be the guy. I’m gonna compete for it. I’m gonna work for it.’ I think he liked that, and I like how things are looking right now.”
Tramel's ScissorTales:OSU went from basketball school to football school. Is that common?
The tight end position was a constant work in progress last year. Woods had transferred to Virginia, Metcalf had graduated and Carter was recovering from back surgery for the first half of the year.
Cassity was the primary option for most of the season, with backups Quinton Stewart and Austin Jarrard contributing in bits, plus some added blocking help from Silas Barr, who switched from offensive tackle to tight end in midseason.
To give the group a stronger pass-catching threat, true freshman receiver Blaine Green began playing a hybrid receiver/tight end role.
He finished the season with 314 yards and a touchdown on 21 receptions — far more productive than any of OSU’s traditional tight ends have been since Blake Jarwin’s senior season in 2016.
Green is expected to remain in that hybrid role in the fall, though he is not participating in spring practice while he rehabs an injury.
Still, the group is thin. Carter graduated after last season, Barr returned to the offensive line and Jarrard entered the transfer portal. Only true freshman Tabry Shettron has joined the group.
“We need to get some quality reps out of those guys who have some experience,” coach Mike Gundy said. “And we need to stay healthy. That’s the starting point.”
'Officially an old head':How Jason Taylor II went from the new guy to veteran of OSU's secondary
But, Gundy added, at some point before next season begins, the coaches will have to decide how much they want to use a tight end versus going with four wide receivers to take advantage of Green’s versatility and their overall depth and talent at receiver.
Being only 215 pounds, Green isn’t as physical a blocker as the 240-pound Cassity. But Green has natural receiving skills, so his abilities as a route runner and pass catcher exceed what the other tight ends can do.
“He’s a different cat when it comes to route running and all that stuff,” Cassity said. “He loves to work. He’s a workhorse. He’s gonna know the playbook up and down, back and forth.
“It’s so cool having him around. And watching him go in and succeed last year, that was awesome.”
Cassity knows he can be more impactful as he becomes a better receiving option, so he dedicates a lot of time to polishing those skills.
As a defensive end, he got his weight up to 258 pounds, but he’s down to 240 now.
“I feel like my all-around athleticism has built a little more, being able to run routes,” he said. “The hardest thing for me was running routes. As a defensive end, it’s a straight line or a quick up-and-under thing. For me now, it’s being able to run a 10-yard route, head down, digging, then having to plant on one leg as fast as you can, and move all that weight in another direction.
“It took me a while to pick up, but I finally got the hang of it.”

Costs top Americans' health care concerns, new poll finds
Americans' biggest health care priorities revolve largely around affordability, according to a new Kaiser Family Foundation poll, with most wanting to see Congress tackle drug prices. More broadly, inflation and rising costs dominate the public's concerns.
The findings, released Thursday, show that 55% of Americans call inflation and rising prices the biggest problem facing the U.S., far ahead of the Russian invasion of Ukraine (18%), climate change (6%), the COVID-19 pandemic (6%) or crime (6%).
That's true across party lines, although the sentiment is most pronounced within the GOP: About 70% of Republicans call inflation the country's biggest issue, compared with 53% of independents and 46% of Democrats.
Similarly, other recent polls have found the rising cost of living dominating Americans' minds. In a new Quinnipiac poll, 30% of Americans picked inflation as the most urgent issue facing the U.S., with the Russia/Ukraine crisis following at just 14%. NBC polling also found Americans more focused on economic concerns than foreign policy or other issues. And a new Gallup survey said 17% of Americans cited inflation as the nation's top problem, the highest level in its polling since 1985.
The focus on costs remains even when Americans are asked specifically about their priorities for possible health care legislation, the KFF poll finds. Most U.S. adults (61%) say it should be a priority for Congress to limit how much drug companies can raise prescription drug prices each year to no more than the rate of inflation. About half (53%) say Congress should make it a priority to cap out-of-pocket costs for insulin at $35 monthly and to place a limit on out-of-pocket health care costs for seniors (52%).
Fewer, 42%, call it a priority to expand government-provided health insurance in states that have not expanded Medicaid access or to increase funding for access to mental health services and training for mental health providers. Only 25% say that providing more COVID-19 pandemic response funding should be a priority.
"The public's priorities in health reflect deep concern about prices of everything right now, including drug prices," KFF President and CEO Drew Altman said in a news release. "That doesn't mean other things that have long been popular do not have public support too; they do. It just means prices are the preeminent concern."
In their personal finances, most Americans express at least some worry about being able to afford gasoline or other transportation costs (71%) and unexpected medical bills (58%), with many concerned about paying for monthly utility bills (50%) and food (47%). In February 2020, just 40% worried about paying for gas, 38% about monthly utilities and 34% about food, KFF found.
Concerns are magnified for lower-income Americans. Nearly 8 in 10 Americans in households making less than $40,000 a year say they worry about affording as or transportation costs, with more than 6 in 10 also concerned about affording unexpected medical bills (66%), monthly utilities (65%), rent or mortgage payments (63%) and food (62%).
About half of Americans, 51%, say they've put off or gone without some form of medical service in the past year because of its costs.
Twelve years after its passage, the Affordable Care Act remains popular, the KFF poll finds, with 55% of the public viewing it favorably. About one-quarter, 24%, say the law has directly helped them and their family, with 20% saying it hurt them and the rest that it's had no direct effect.
Of those who say they've seen a positive personal impact, about half say the ACA mainly helped by letting someone in their family get or keep health coverage, with 30% saying the ACA mainly made it easier to get needed health care and 20% that it mainly lowered health care or health insurance costs.
Views of both the ACA and its effects are also sharply divided along partisan lines, with 43% of Democrats and just 7% of Republicans saying the ACA has helped them.
Among Americans under 65 who have private health insurance, 56% say they know nothing about the No Surprises Act, a law taking effect this year that protects people with private health insurance from getting large medical bills when they accidentally receive out-of-network health care. Only about 21% say they know even something about the legislation. | https://www.wmur.com/article/americans-health-care-concerns/39593902 | 2022-04-01T01:31:22Z |
FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (WSVN) - A Broward County park is getting a makeover.
Officials unveiled the latest additions to Everglades Holiday Park in Fort Lauderdale, Thursday.
The recently finished second phase of the renovation project includes the addition of new and improved features to the area.
“We have new picnic areas for families to come and spend the day, new shelters, new restrooms facilities, new boat ramps, so patrons can bring their own fishing boats as well as their air boats,” said park manager Andrea Toro.
The first part of the project was completed in 2020. During this phase, workers built a two-lane bridge with a pedestrian sidewalk.

Septentrio has launched three new products: mosaic-CLAS, AsteRx-m3 CLAS, and AsteRx SB3 CLAS, which support Japan’s high-accuracy Centimeter Level Augmentation Service (CLAS). These multi-frequency GNSS receivers support CLAS on a single device, thanks to the latest GNSS technology which receives the L6 signal, which transmits high-accuracy corrections from Japan’s QZSS constellation. This technology was developed in close cooperation with CORE, a leading integrator of high-accuracy positioning technology and services in Japan.
The mosaic-CLAS receiver is a GNSS module with a very small form-factor ideal for high-volume industrial applications. The AsteRx-m3 CLAS is the best-in-class OEM board combining PPP-RTK CLAS with dual-antenna heading functionality. The AsteRx-SB3 CLAS features a ruggedized IP68 enclosure to protect it in harsh environments. Septentrio is simultaneously offering various receiver types to the Japanese market ensuring an optimal match between products and customer needs in various applications including robotics, precision agriculture, construction, machine control as well as UAVs.
The CLAS PPP-RTK is the latest generation of GNSS correction services, combining near-RTK accuracy and quick initialization times with the broadcast nature of PPP. Receivers with built-in CLAS functionality offer sub-decimetre positioning accuracy right out of the box. Corrections for high-accuracy positioning are received directly from satellites, reducing the need for additional base stations or service subscriptions. | https://www.eeworldonline.com/gnss-receivers-support-clas-service-in-japan/ | 2022-04-01T01:31:22Z |
Marvel Cinematic Universe's latest superhero is not, in the conventional sense, either "super" or a "hero," but he does have an unorthodox ailment and a weird skill-set to separate him from mere mortals. His name is Morbius, and while watching his origin story, you may get the feeling that somewhere in the cinematic multiverse, wires got crossed.
The film begins with a helicopter, transporting a cage to the sort of mist-shrouded isle you half expect King Kong to be inhabiting. But Dr. Michael Morbius (Jared Leto) is looking to capture smaller game as he approaches the mouth of a cave, hobbling with difficulty on two crutch-like canes.
Positioning himself behind the wires of the cage, he slices open the palm of his hand and, as a roar of batwings echoes from inside the cave, murmurs to the copter pilot "if you're gonna run, do it now."
A rare blood disease treated with a bit o' bat
It's tempting to say "consider yourself warned," but the film's first hour or so, while unremarkable, is decently crafted.
Born with a rare blood disease, Michael Morbius has spent his entire life working on two things — a cure, and origami paper-folding. Natch, it occurs to him to fold together bat and human DNA.
Because the FDA would be unlikely to approve human trials, he and his beautiful co-researcher Martine (Adria Arjona) head in a cargo ship for international waters off the coast of Long Island in the company of eight thuggish mercenaries — think bloodbags — and once Morbius has been injected with bat DNA, it's just a matter of time before things go vampiric.
Let it be said that some side-effects from dabbling in "chiropter-y" are less ghastly than others. Bat DNA evidently gives you great cheekbones and abs to go with increased strength and speed.
Less salutary effects include new fangs that sprout from his gums with decades of decay baked in, and claws that erupt from his fingers pre-filthed. I mean, sure...why not? Except this is a man whose hair has the kind of sheen that comes from brushing it three times a day.
One other thing: he now needs to drink human blood every six hours. Happily, on his way to declining a Nobel Prize, Dr. Morbius invented "artificial blood," though that only fools his system for a while.
Color coded smoke effects for a Jekyll and his Hyde
If you're expecting a conventional Marvel movie, you should be aware going in that what Director Daniel Espinoza and his writers have come up with is more a horror flick with Marvel bells and whistles.
That means Leto's Morbius gets purplish smoke effects to go with those fang-baring snarls as he's riding air currents in subway tunnels, while the similarly afflicted Hyde to his Jekyll – a schoolboy chum played as an adult by an amusingly hopped-up Matt Smith, gets blue-ish vapor trails and snappier lines.
But there isn't much tension to their story. Or logic. At one point, Morbius overhears some counterfeiters passing fake $100s, and commandeers their printing press to make what appears to be an artificial-blood machine — because the technologies for fake-bills and fake-blood match up? Maybe that works better in a comic book.
Bat guys everywhere you look
Speaking of which, when the DC Extended Universe first announced that Twilight star Robert Pattinson would play the lead in The Batman in their corner of the superhero multiverse, it seemed like a nice inside joke — from Vampire-teen to Bat-man. But now that the Marvelverse has Leto going full Dracula, it seems as if the casting maybe could've gone the other way 'round.
Leto is as persuasively haunted by the dark side of vigilantism as Pattinson was, and as a result of corporate positioning, is maybe more determined to avoid being a villain. Not unlike Venom, Morbius was a bad guy when he first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man comics, back in the 1970's. He needs to be at least an anti-hero now, if a franchise is to be built around him.
But bad guy/bat guy...who's to say? As the trailers reveal, another DC bat-guy, Michael Keaton, shows up in his non-batty baddie Marvel persona Adrian Toomes, just to mess with the heads of anyone trying to keep cinematic universes straight.
But bloodlines will have to be clarified in more robust "Morbius" episodes to come, this origin story being merely adequate, and by Marvel standards, slightly anemic.

Two million free flu vaccines will be available for Kiwis as the vaccination campaign gets underway on Friday, Health Minister Andrew Little has announced.
The Government will this year be making 2 million flu vaccines available - up from an average of 1.4 million - while also widening eligibility for Kiwis who can receive the vaccine for free.
The shot will be available not only for at-risk New Zealanders and those aged 65 and over, but also Māori and Pasifika aged 55 and over.
The $12 million expansion programme is being funded from the Government’s Covid-19 Response and Recovery Fund.
“With the Omicron wave still working its way through the country, we need to protect our most vulnerable from getting the flu as well, and our health system from coming under more pressure,” Little said in a media release.
“We already make the flu shot available for free for everyone over the age of 65, and for those who are pregnant or at risk of becoming seriously ill because of other underlying conditions.
“This winter, on the advice of doctors, we’re widening eligibility to include Māori and Pacific people aged 55 and over, which means an extra 39,000 people can have the vaccine for free.”
Little urged as many people as possible to get vaccinated.
“In an ordinary year, flu kills more than 500 New Zealanders, and this is no ordinary year."
He said while typically, just half of those eligible for the vaccine take it up, the lack of colds and flu circulating in the community over the past two years amid the Covid-19 pandemic means the community's immunity levels have lowered.
“I encourage everyone – and especially the most vulnerable – to get vaccinated. Anyone who is part of Group Three for the Covid vaccination rollout should make sure they get a flu shot."
It comes as University of Otago epidemiologist professor Michael Baker warned this year's flu season could be a tough one for New Zealanders as the borders begin to reopen and immunity wanes.
The program begins from Friday, with vaccinations available from family doctors, pharmacists and some Māori and Pacific health providers, he said.
“We’re looking at ways to increase the vaccination workforce to get flu shots to those who need them. We have trained and authorised many new pharmacist vaccinators over the past two years, including provisional pharmacist vaccinators who are able to administer the influenza vaccine.” | https://www.1news.co.nz/2022/03/31/2-million-flu-vaccines-available-for-kiwis-this-year/ | 2022-04-01T01:31:23Z |

A property registered in the name of former Irish hockey player Catriona Carey has been sold on bidding site BidX1.
Just one bid was placed on the four-bedroom property on the outskirts of Kilkenny City, and that bidder met the minimum reserve price of €365,000.
"We can confirm that the property sold for €365,000 at an auction today," a BidX1 spokesperson said.
Situated in The Weir View housing estate, the property had been 'subject to a tenancy' at a rate of '€9,600 per annum', according to the listing details.
[Picture: BidX1]
The listing stated that the property extends to approximately 192 sq.m. and describes the accommodation as 'spacious and well-proportioned'.
The property was not internally inspected or measured by BidX1.
INVESTIGATION
An Garda Síochána is currently investigating a number of alleged fraud incidents relating to the activities of an asset management company, understood to be owned by Catriona Carey.
Ms Carey was recently the subject of an RTÉ documentary that included interviews with a number of people who claimed to have paid over large sums of money to her company Careysfort Assets Estates.

Demi Moore Reportedly Dating Chef Daniel Humm After Trip To Paris Fashion Week Together
Demi Moore has reportedly been romantically linked to Swiss chef Daniel Humm just after news broke that her ex-husband Bruce Willis has been diagnosed with aphasia.
Demi Moore is back on the dating scene! The 59-year-old actress has been romantically linked to Swiss chef Daniel Humm, 46. The two have reportedly been dating for months, as per Page Six. They were first publicly spotted at Paris Fashion Week. The two sat together in the front row at Chloe Womenswear Fall/Winter 2022/2023. “They are really hot and heavy at the moment. Daniel works long, hard hours at his restaurant Eleven Madison Park, but they still often take time to have Demi join him for romantic dinners there,” a source divulged to the outlet.
News of Demi’s new love interest comes just after her ex-husband Bruce Willis’ illness was made public. His daughters Rumer, Tallulah, Scout, Mabel Ray, and Evelyn Penn, revealed that their father has aphasia, a condition that causes brain damage and impaired language skills, in a joint statement. They also broke the news that Bruce would be retiring from acting due to his condition.
“To Bruce’s amazing supporters, as a family we wanted to share that our beloved Bruce has been experiencing some health issues and has recently been diagnosed with aphasia, which is impacting his cognitive abilities,” the heartbreaking message read. “As a result of this and with much consideration, Bruce is stepping away from the career that has meant so much to him.” Celebrities like John Travolta have left tributes for the actor and there are surely more to come.
Demi spent some time with Bruce just before his diagnosis was announced. She celebrated his 67th birthday with him, likely along with their three daughters Rumer, Tallulah and Scout. She uploaded a sweet pic from the occasion of her and Bruce posing with a tray of truffles. She wore a cute pair of corduroy overall shorts and Bruce kept it casual with a sweatshirt jacket and jeans.
She expressed how “thankful” she was for her “blended family” in the post’s caption. Even though they’re no longer married, the two still get along pretty well. In fact, they even quarantined with their adult children during the coronavirus pandemic. Now, Bruce is married to Emma Heming, with whom he shares his two youngest daughters. | https://hollywoodlife.com/2022/03/31/demi-moore-dating-chef-daniel-humm/ | 2022-04-01T01:31:24Z |
Friends, suspend your disbelief for a moment. Apparently, there was a time in the early 1980s when one could go camping in a new Audi 100. We aren't just talking about stretching out in the back seat either. The Bischofberger Audi 100 was a proper RV, and though you couldn't order one from the factory, it was available to those who wanted a smaller camper that wasn't a Volkswagen van.
We'll be honest in saying information on this rig is a bit slim. We happened upon it while perusing the I Love Terrible Ugly Cars Facebook group, where it was shared from another page called Audi quattrology - August Horch Erbe. In addition to a plethora of photos, the post offers a bit of insight into this odd RV. Yes, it was a legit camper with accommodations for several people to sleep. It housed a small kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, and sink, and it carried five gallons of water. For those wanting a bit more space, a high-roof option was available.
To make sure the Audi's bones were up for the challenge, a reinforced tubular frame structure was added to the 100. The suspension and brakes were also upgraded, but the growling inline-five engine remained untouched. An automatic transmission was offered, or drivers could shift by hand with a five-speed manual. The camper portion was fiberglass, and frankly, we have an odd desire to go canyon carving in this row-your-own recreational car.
The post piqued our interest enough to nose around the internet for more information, leading up to the above video that offers a nice look both outside and in. This model (Type 44) was actually preceded by a Type 43 that apparently impressed Audi executives. A request was made to build a camper on the newer model, and the Type 44 was born. It was never a mass-production offering, or even a modest build for that matter. The Facebook post tells us just 40 were made through 1984.
Try as we might, we were unable to find any definitive information on how many Bischofberger Audi 100s still exist. If you're in the know on such things, drop a comment below or shoot us an email. We'd love to dive further into this decidedly obscure bit of Audi/RV history.

Fleurieu teenage sensation secures silver medal at national championships
Sixteen-year-old Maslin Beach running phenom Angus Hincksman has claimed the silver medal in the Open Men's 1500m (Ambulant) at the 2022 Australian Track and Field Championships.
Faced with rain and strong winds, Hincksman, who is a T38 para-athlete, crossed the finish line in a personal record time of 4:06.25, which was also quick enough to break the national Under 20 record.
T38 is a category which is reserved for athletes with Cerebral Palsy, a condition that effects muscle control, balance and coordination.
The former Tatachilla Lutheran College student's performance is being lauded by many, with the teenager upstaging some of Australia's strongest Paralympic middle-distance runners.
National T38 record holder Reece Langdon secured gold with a time of 4:03.94, while Deon Kenzie, a bronze medalist at the Tokyo Paralympics in the T38 1500m, finished in third place with a time of 4:06.39..
The race also featured Daniel Bounty, who finished sixth in the 1500m in Tokyo. All four runners showcased a golden generation of para middle-distance running.
Despite tough running conditions, all competitors looked comfortable during the three-and-three-quarter lap race, with Hincksman sitting in fourth for majority of the tussle.
However, during the last 200 metres of the race, the teenager overtook Bounty and Kenzie to secure a silver.
In an interview with Athletics SA, Hincksman said he felt "crazy good" in what were testing conditions.
"I am feeling crazy good, I wasn't expecting anything given the windy and rainy conditions and four really good runners in my classification," Hincksman said.
"I came in with the slowest seed time but I wanted to push myself and that's what I did. This was my first Open medal and it was so unexpected, which makes it better in a way.
"Running against Reece, who has the National T38 record, and Paralympians Deon and Daniel was awesome."
Coach Simon Moran highlighted the magnitude of Hincksman's performance, with the 16-year-old recording the sixth fastest time in world by an T38 athlete during the 2021/22 season.
Moran said the youngster was "sandwiched" between the second and third fastest T38 1500m runners ever, and timed his run to perfection.
Hincksman will also take part in the Open Men's 800m (Ambulant) final on Friday, April 1.
Another superb performance at national level will provide Hincksman with plenty of confidence as he looks to book his ticket at the 2024 Paris Paralympic Games.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — Maryland lawmakers passed a measure on Thursday to create a paid family leave program, sending the legislation to Gov. Larry Hogan.
The bill, approved by supermajority votes by Democrats who control the legislature, would enable workers to take up to 12 weeks of partially paid leave for specified personal family circumstances such as caring for a sick relative or having a baby. It would provide up to 24 weeks for a parent, if he or she has a serious health issue in the year of a child's birth.
“This has been a long time coming,” said Sen. Antonio Hayes, a Baltimore Democrat. He thanked supporters who have “come together and really advocated on behalf of Maryland families."
Republicans criticized the measure for failing to spell out how much employees and employers would have to contribute, leaving that for the state's labor department to define later. They said Democrats were rushing to get the bill to the Republican governor just to meet a deadline so lawmakers will still be in session if the bill is vetoed.
People are also reading…
“We're pushing this bill as quick as we can to get it upstairs,” said Sen. J.B. Jennings, a Republican, who added: “We don't know the numbers ... this bill is a hot mess.”
Because lawmakers are in the last session of the four-year term, they would not have a chance to override the veto next year if they adjourn before the governor acts on legislation.
The measure would create an insurance pool. Employees and employers would contribute to fund the program. Under the bill, the state’s labor department would set contribution rates to pay for the program. Employers with fewer than 15 employees would not be required to contribute.
The measure also includes job protections to protect employees from retaliation or termination for using the leave.
Seven states and the District of Columbia have paid family and medical leave insurance programs, including California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Washington. Colorado and Oregon have approved programs that have not started yet.

Final Four coaches feel transfer portal is “out of control”
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Jeff Walz has had a lot of success getting players to transfer to Louisville over the last few years, including three starters on his Final Four team this season.
He’s not the only coach in the Final Four who has bolstered the roster by using the transfer portal as both South Carolina and UConn have found supplemental players from it.
Still Walz, Dawn Staley and Geno Auriemma think the amount of players looking to change schools is getting out of control.
“I always like to say, ‘The grass is greener on the other side because it’s fertilized with a bunch of bull,’” Louisville coach Jeff Walz said. “I think there are a lot of players that will jump into the portal after one year that don’t really have a good grasp of why they’re doing it.”
Staley likened the portal to Twitter, Instagram or TikTok.
“It’s a big ol’ fad that just keeps continuing,” she said. “Is it out of hand? It absolutely is. I don’t know how you control it. But it’s their way. It’s their way of controlling their own destinies.”
Both Staley and Auriemma noted that there were currently more players seeking to transfer than there were scholarships available across the country.
“You know those 850 people in the portal? Three hundred of them are not going to find a school to go to because they’re going to realize it’s not the school they just left,” Auriemma said.
Despite the reservations, they’re still playing along. Emily Engstler (Syracuse), Kianna Smith (California) and Chelsie Hall (Vanderbilt) have been key for Louisville. Engstler and Hall just joined the program this season.
When Engstler was considering the Cardinals, Walz went to Mykasa Robinson to discuss how her role would likely shrink if Engstler were to come and gauge her comfort level.
“She looked at me, and she’s like, ‘I’m tired of guarding her. If we can get her, yes, because she likes to win, and she wants to play with other good players,’” Walz said.
SOUTH CAROLINA SUPPORT
The Gamecocks have led the nation in average attendance for seven straight years, buoyed by a base of more than 10,000 season tickets. Despite the 1,200-mile distance from campus to downtown Minneapolis, there will be plenty of garnet-and-black-clad South Carolina fans voicing their support on Friday night when the Gamecocks take on Louisville.
“They’ve been with us when we weren’t a popular team or we weren’t a whole lot to cheer about,” Staley said. “This is my 14th year being at South Carolina, but the last probably 10, the fans have given us a ride that’s kind of irreplaceable.”
One of the catalysts for the attendance boom was giving fans as much as access to the program as they could, to build relationships and let the locals get to know the players as people.
“You really feel the love in the community,” guard Brea Beal said. “You can go to the store and run into somebody and they’re like, oh my gosh, just freaking out. It’s like a family.”
FOND MEMORY
Walz spent one season at Minnesota on his climb up the coaching ladder, serving as an assistant under current Maryland coach Brenda Frese.
That was 20 years ago, when Hall of Fame finalist Lindsay Whalen was a sophomore for the Gophers on a breakthrough team that reached the Final Four two seasons later. The women’s team at that time played in a smaller gym, the Pavilion, next door to Williams Arena where the Minnesota men’s team has played since 1928.
A water pipe burst that winter, moving the women’s team into the bigger venue. The Gophers were on a roll, and the first game in the building known as “The Barn” was packed to the rafters.
“From that point on, we continued the rest of the season playing in the Barn in front of unbelievable crowds,” Walz said.

Why the hiring of Jeff Lebby was a 'turning point' for OU wide receiver Theo Wease's return
NORMAN — Everything fell into place for Theo Wease.
The senior wide receiver is expected to be a go-to option in OU’s passing game this season, but his time in Norman almost came to an end this past offseason.
After missing all but one game in 2021 due to a lower leg injury, Wease wanted a change in scenery. The Allen, Texas, native considered entering the transfer portal, and he already had a landing spot in mind.
Wease wanted to play for Jeff Lebby at Ole Miss.
The Oklahoma grad and former student assistant was thriving as the Rebels' offensive coordinator. Ole Miss ranked sixth in the nation in total yards per game last season (480.9), and Wease wanted in on the action.
“We talked about me going there,” Wease said of Lebby and Ole Miss on The Podcast On The Prairie on March 9. “Of course, I never wanted to leave Oklahoma. But you know, just how certain stuff plays out, stuff happens.”
Tramel:Transfer portal makes QB depth precarious at both OU & OSU
Reluctant to leave OU, a place he called home for the past three years, Wease’s decision became much easier following the conclusion of the season.
Then-OU head coach Lincoln Riley surprised the program by bolting for the USC gig on Nov. 28, and Wease entered the transfer portal the following day.
"It was hard,” Wease said on Thursday. “I went through the injury, missed the whole season and then the coaching change. It was hard.”
Numerous other OU offensive players followed suit.
Caleb and Mario Williams transferred to USC. Spencer Rattler and Austin Stogner went to South Carolina. Jadon Haselwood moved on to Arkansas.
Wease also intended on following through with his decision. He planned on joining Lebby at Ole Miss, but Lebby came to him instead.
More:Why did Jalil Farooq stick with OU football after Caleb Williams left?
Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables accepted the head coaching at OU on Dec. 5, and Lebby joined his staff as the offensive coordinator.
Lebby’s hiring made it an easy decision for Wease, who withdrew from the transfer portal on Dec. 17 and returned to OU.
“The turning point I would definitely say was Coach Lebby,” Wease said. “Just his philosophy and how real he made me feel. It was just a family-like feel I got from him."
The Sooners are expected to roll out a fast-paced offense under Lebby’s command.
Ole Miss ranked fourth in the nation in offensive plays per game last season (80.5), while Oklahoma ranked 107th (66.8).
"I like playing in a tempo offense because you can catch the defense slipping,” Wease said. “That was a big part of talking to Coach Lebby and just everything about his offense."
Buying into the system hasn’t been an issue for Wease, and that has shown in the first few days of spring football.
“He’s been incredibly competitive,” Lebby said of Wease. “He’s been incredibly bought-in. He’s worked his butt off in getting to this point. I think he can fit in in a great way.”
Tramel's ScissorTales:OU to play up-tempo offense under Lebby
Wease fit into OU’s offense just fine prior to the coaching change.
The then-sophomore wide receiver started all 11 games in 2020. He finished with 37 receptions for 530 yards and four touchdowns.
Wease was primed for another strong showing last season before watching it get spoiled by his leg injury, but he has a positive outlook on the setback.
"I’m grateful for the injury because it brought something out of myself," Wease said. "I knew I had it in me. But being injured and being off the field made me dig deeper, actually find that and put it to work.”
Wease is now in an offensive scheme he has wanted to play in for some time now, and he claims his health level is off the scale.
"I'll give you a scale from 1-10,” Wease said of his health. “I'd probably say 11.”

COCONUT CREEK, FLA. (WSVN) - A man stood his ground at an ATM while he was being targeted for a robbery.
Surveillance video shows two people approaching the 76-year-old as he made a withdrawal.
That’s when the pair, who police believe are teens, attempted to rob the man and tried to rough him up, until he started fighting back.
It happened at the Bank of America branch on Coconut Creek Parkway and Lyons Road.
If you have any information about the pair, you are urged to call police.

Automotive electronics are subjected to special requirements. This has resulted in industry-typical standards such as AEC-Q200 qualification or IATF-16949-certified production. In this context, Würth Elektronik has supplemented its extensive catalog for automotive components.
Highlights among the new additions include WE-CAR-TEC and WE-CNSA. The WE-CAR-TEC series is a folding ferrite with a core material made of NiZn. WE-CAR-TEC allows the suppression of electromagnetic interference in the frequency range from 1 MHz to 1 GHz. Thanks to a patented closing mechanism, the ferrite is reusable and therefore also ideal for test and measurement purposes in EMC laboratories.
WE-CNSA is a current compensated data line filter. It offers high common-mode noise rejection at high frequencies and a low RDC design. This makes the filter suitable for automotive infotainment, FlexRay, and high-speed data line applications.

The counting is over in the second union election at an Amazon warehouse in Bessemer, Alabama. But it's too close to call.
There were 993 "no" votes and 875 "yes" votes, but more than 400 contested ballots remain. According to the National Labor Relations Board, there will be a hearing within a few weeks to decide if any of the challenged ballots will be opened and counted.
More than 6,100 workers were eligible to vote in the do-over election, which was ordered after the NLRB found that Amazon had improperly interfered in last year's tally.
Turnout in this year's vote was down from last year when over half of eligible voters cast ballots. But among those who actually voted this time around, there was greater support for the union. Last year, workers voted more than 2-to-1 against joining the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union, a well-established national union.
"This time around we were able to educate more about unions," said Jennifer Bates, a warehouse employee, noting that organizers were able to get closer to workers now that the pandemic has eased.
The RWDSU called for every vote to be counted.
"The tenacity and courage of these workers never wavered in this unnecessarily long process," said RWDSU president Stuart Appelbaum in a statement. "Workers will have to wait just a little bit longer to ensure their voices are heard."
Meanwhile in a separate Amazon union election on Staten Island in New York, the vote count will continue Friday morning. Roughly 8,000 workers were eligible to vote on whether to join the Amazon Labor Union, an upstart organization led by former and current Amazon warehouse employees. With ballots still to count, the union is in the lead, with 1,518 voting yes so far, and 1,154 voting no.

The All Blacks Sevens will be showing off plenty of new faces in their long-awaited return to the World Series with five rookies named to travel to Singapore this weekend.
Head coach Clarke Laidlaw named his Singapore Sevens squad on Friday with Sam Dickson captaining the side for the event.
Laidlaw said he and the team were hungry to get back on the competitive circuit after their two-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic and travel restrictions that came with it.
“We’ve had a great couple of weeks in Fiji preparing so it was good to name the team for Singapore, having these new players in the mix brings a real level of excitement.”
The team features a true mix of youth and experience with seven players from the Tokyo Olympic campaign featured alongside the five debutants.
In line for their international sevens debut are Leroy Carter, Moses Leo, Caleb Tangitau, Kitiona Vai and Brady Rush - son of All Blacks Sevens great Eric Rush.
Leo, Vai and Rush have all been part of the sevens programme for a while but Laidlaw said their debuts were delayed by the pandemic.
“They have been with us a couple of years, so they really deserve this opportunity and are ready for it.”
Tangitau on the other hand is fresh to side after only signing with the All Blacks Sevens at the start of the year.
However both he and Carter - a former New Zealand Under 20s player - have impressed Laidlaw in their short time with the squad.
“Caleb has only been with us a couple of months, but he has done really well these last couple of weeks and has genuine pace.
"Leroy is a professional, he’s diligent with his work and can play multiple positions, we’re looking forward to seeing how he goes.”
Dickson has been promoted to captain of the side with regular leaders Tim Mikkelson injured and Scott Curry unavailable this weekend.
Dickson said he had big boots to fill.
“I’ve always looked up to those boys and played a lot of my rugby with them so it’s an honour to be the next one to help lead this team, lucky I’ve got some other good leaders in the team to help me along the way."
While the side won't be able to win this year's series - South Africa already have 88 points on the table after winning the first four events of the season - the squad will get four stops in before the Commonwealth Games in July.
After Singapore, the All Blacks Sevens will play in Vancouver, Toulouse and London.
