Catholic priest dies after being shot twice in the head A 38-year-old Catholic priest in Tzaneen died after being shot twice in the head. The shooting took place inside a church at about 7am on Wednesday. Limpopo police launched an extensive manhunt for the perpetrator. The priest is believed to have been followed by an unknown suspect to a changing room after a morning prayer session for church members. Police spokesperson Col Malesela Ledwaba said the perpetrator shot the priest twice in the head before fleeing the scene. “Upon receiving the distress call, both the police and emergency medical services responded promptly. The victim was swiftly transported to a nearby hospital, where he was tragically pronounced dead on arrival.” Ledwaba said the priest's identity is being withheld pending notification of his next of kin. Provincial commissioner Lt-Gen Thembi Hadebe has tasked the murder and robbery unit to lead the investigation and apprehend the perpetrator responsible for the “deplorable” crime. Ledwaba has appealed to members of the community who may have any information to come forward and assist in the investigation. “You are urged to contact Lt-Col Richard Boshomane at 079 894 5501 or Warrant Officer Phaladi Makola at 082 749 2233. Alternatively, individuals can report to their nearest police station or reach out to the Crime Stop number at 08600 10111,” he said. TimesLIVE Would you like to comment on this article?

Ukraine-Russia war live: Anti-Putin armed groups loyal to Kyiv launch fresh cross border attacks The ant-Kremlin groups claim to have captured the village of Tyotkino in Russia’s western Kursk region Anti-Kremlin groups supporting Ukraine have launched fresh cross-border attacks in Russia’s western Kursk region. Russia‘s National Guard (Rosgvardia) has said they are repelling a Ukrainian-backed armed groups attack near the village of Tyotkino. The three separate groups of Ukrainian militias are mainly comprised of anti-Vladimir Putin Russians. “Rosgvardia units are involved in repulsing an attack by enemy diversion groups near the village of Tyotkino in the Kursk region,” the national guard said. One of the pro-Kyiv volunteer groups, the Freedom of Russia Legion, warned Russians living in some border cities of imminent shelling attacks. It comes as Moscow has been accused of breaking laws in a separatist region of Moldova ahead of this week’s presidential election. A senior official in ex-Soviet Moldova said Russia was illegally printing ballot papers in the breakaway region of Transdniestria. Moldova’s pro-European authorities have already summoned the Russian ambassador to complain about a decision to open six polling stations in the pro-Russian enclave, instead of a single polling station at the Russian embassy in Chisinau. Organising Russian elections in occupied regions in Ukraine would be illegal, says NATO chief Any attempt to organise Russian elections in occupied regions of Ukraine would be illegal, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg told reporters on Thursday.

Moldova’s pro-European authorities have already summoned the Russian ambassador to complain about a decision to open six polling stations in the pro-Russian enclave, instead of a single polling station at the Russian embassy in Chisinau. Ukraine calls Russia's election on occupied territories null and void Ukrainian foreign ministry called voting for Russia‘s presidential election that is also being held in Ukraine‘s occupied territories illegal and void and called on its international partners not to recognise the results. In its statement, the ministry said the electoral campaign on Russia-occupied territories showed Moscow demonstrated “continued flagrant disregard for international law norms and principles”. Russia bans 227 US citizens from entering the country - Foreign Ministry Russia has banned 227 U.S. citizens from entering the country, including U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on Thursday. The ban, announced on its website, also included the deputy ministers of commerce, defence and energy, as well as former U.S. ambassador to Russia John Sullivan. Since the start of the war in Ukraine, Moscow has imposed mainly symbolic entry bans on thousands of Western politicians, journalists and others it accuses of “Russophobic” actions and statements. Russia says it foils attempted Ukrainian attack in Belgorod region - Ifax Russia‘s defence ministry said on Thursday it had foiled an attempt by the Ukrainian army to attack its southern Belgorod region, Interfax news agency reported. Reuters could not independently verify the report. Russia said earlier in the week it had beaten back attempted incursions into two southern regions which Ukraine said were staged by groups of anti-Kremlin Russian fighters not under Kyiv’s control. Aftermath of missile attack on Belogorod on 15 February 2024 Anti-Putin armed groups loyal to Kyiv launch fresh cross border attacks Anti-Kremlin groups supporting Ukraine have launched fresh cross-border attacks in Russia’s western Kursk region. Russia‘s National Guard (Rosgvardia) has said they are repelling a Ukrainian-backed armed groups attack near the village of Tyotkino.

One of the pro-Kyiv volunteer groups, the Freedom of Russia Legion, warned Russians living in some border cities of imminent shelling attacks. Navalny ally vows to keep fighting Putin after ‘bandit greeting from his henchmen’ Leonid Volkov, a close ally to late Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, has vowed to continue his struggle against Vladimir Putin after he was attacked outside his house in Lithuania. The Putin critic said he was left with a broken arm and multiple injuries after being attacked with a hammer late on Tuesday. He alleged that the attack was carried out by agents of the Russian president. “It was a characteristic bandit greeting from Putin’s henchmen,” he said. Navalny ally vows to keep fighting Putin after ‘bandit greeting from his henchmen’ Volkov says attackers ‘literally wanted to make a schnitzel out of me’ Kremlin says Putin's comments on nuclear weapons did not constitute a threat to use them The Kremlin said on Thursday that comments made by Russian President Vladimir Putin in an interview to state media did not constitute a threat to use them. Putin told the West on Wednesday that Russia was technically ready for nuclear war and that if the U.S. sent troops to Ukraine, it would be considered a significant escalation of the conflict. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday that Putin was merely answering a journalist’s questions and restating the already well known circumstances in which Russia would theoretically be forced to use nuclear weapons. Russian fighters loyal to Ukraine launch largest cross border attacks since start of war Ukraine-based armed “sabotage” groups have launched some of the largest cross-border raids into Russia since Moscow launched its invasion, temporarily capturing a village while vowing to liberate civilians from Vladimir Putin’s rule ahead of a presidential election. The Russian defence ministry said Ukrainian “terrorist formations” backed by tanks and armoured combat vehicles tried to invade in three separate directions in Russia’s Belgorod region at about 3am Moscow time (00.00 GMT). It said that four more attacks by Ukrainian “sabotage and reconnaissance groups” were repulsed around five hours later in Russia’s Kursk region. Russian fighters loyal to Ukraine launch cross border attacks Three anti-Putin Russian military groups conduct irregular cross-border raids into mainland Russia to fight against the Kremlim regime Russian weekly ground attacks drops by 13 per cent since February In today’s update, the UK ministry of defence has reported that while Russia continues to attack along the front lines, the average number of weekly reported ground attacks has reduced by 13 per cent since February 2024. Putin issues direct nuclear warning to United States: ‘We are ready’ Vladimir Putin has issued a direct nuclear warning to the United States. The Russian leader issued a defiant response when asked how he would respond if America sent ground troops to Ukraine. Speaking in an interview on Wednesday (13 Marc), Mr Putin said Moscow was prepared for a nuclear confrontation if there was a threat to Russia’s sovereignty or security. The Russian leader said: “I don’t think that everything is rushing so head on here [with nuclear confrontation], but we are ready for this.” Join our commenting forum Join thought-provoking conversations, follow other Independent readers and see their replies Subscribe to Independent Premium to bookmark this article Want to bookmark your favourite articles and stories to read or reference later?

STAMFORD, Conn., March 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GeneDx (Nasdaq: WGS), a leader in delivering improved health outcomes through genomic insights, today announced its scientific contributions at the 2024 American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) Annual Clinical Genetics Meeting. Across one platform presentation, an industry symposium and six poster presentations, including one selected as a “Rapid Fire Poster Session,” an invitation-only presentation of the top 20 ACMG posters, GeneDx continues to demonstrate its industry leadership in shaping the future landscape of genomics. One of the GeneDx poster sessions includes data demonstrating the ability of exome sequencing to detect small copy number variants (CNVs) below the reporting threshold of chromosomal microarray (CMA) and the detection of CNVs at nearly 99% concordance with CMA. These findings represent improved data quality from pipeline and platform improvements. Combined with its ability to identify many other types of variants compared to CMA and its nearly three times higher diagnostic yield,1,2,3 these findings demonstrate the clinical superiority of an exome over CMA. These data support the current clinical guidelines recommending exome as a first-tier test and represent GeneDx’s groundbreaking approach to genomic data analysis and interpretation, aimed at eliminating the need for additional tests when ordering exome first. In its platform presentation, GeneDx will highlight its newly developed statistical approach for predicting the impact of many missense variants with a precision of 99%. This proof-of-concept research has the potential to decrease the variants of unknown significance (VUS) rate and drive greater operational efficiency and diagnostic precision by decreasing the number of variants requiring additional vetting. In addition to its technological and scientific advancements, GeneDx is committed to democratizing access to genomic testing by eliminating barriers and unlocking the bottlenecks of care. Through an industry-sponsored session, GeneDx will explore the gap between the availability of the medical genetics workforce and the genetic testing needs of pediatric patients. This session features a discussion comparing viewpoints and opportunities around non-geneticists ordering genomic sequencing as part of routine care, with the goal of improving patient outcomes. "We are motivated to continue to push the boundaries of genomics to transform the future of healthcare," said Paul Kruszka, Chief Medical Officer at GeneDx. "Through our relentless commitment, we are revolutionizing genetic testing and diagnosis, and empowering healthcare providers to deliver personalized care to even more patients."

Indian digital payments firm Paytm plans to cut close to 20% of staff at its banking unit amid uncertainty over the unit's future due to a looming central bank deadline for it to halt most operations, two sources said. Paytm Payments Bank has decided to lay-off staff in certain divisions, including operations, the sources with direct knowledge of the matter said. The unit had 2,775 employees as of December 2023, data from information provider Tracxn shows. Paytm, formally known as One 97 Communications, owns a 49% stake in the bank which was ordered by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) at the end of January to stop accepting credit transactions or deposits across products such as savings accounts, prepaid cards and digital wallets by March 15, following persistent compliance breaches. Paytm shares have lost 54% of their value since the regulatory clampdown, in the worst crisis for one of India's largest digital payment firms. "Since this regulatory order has coincided with appraisal season, employees with low ratings have been asked to leave," the first source, an employee at the banking unit, said. "Employees are frustrated because the management has gone back on their word that nobody will be laid off," this person said. In an internal town-hall meeting in February, Paytm CEO Vijay Shekhar Sharma assured the bank's staff there would be no layoffs, the second source, also a banking unit employee, said. Neither source wished to be identified as they are not authorised to speak to the media. A spokesperson for Paytm Payments Bank declined to comment. A Paytm spokesperson said: "There are no layoffs here." The annual appraisal cycle is underway at the company which may lead to adjustments based on performance evaluations and role suitability, this spokesperson added. "It's crucial to understand that this process is distinct from layoffs". After Friday's deadline, customers who have deposits in the bank's accounts, wallets and toll tags for paying highways taxes, can still access them. But no fresh deposits can be made. Paytm Payments Bank will also still hold a regulatory licence unless it is withdrawn by the RBI. It is unclear what purpose Paytm Payments Bank will serve after the business halt, the second source said. Both sources said there had been no update from Paytm on what banking staff would do after the move. Paytm has absorbed about 100 employees from the banking unit, the second source said. Paytm, which has been using its banking unit to back digital payments through its own app, is expecting to get a licence this week from the National Payments Corp of India (NPCI) that would allow its customers to continue using the Paytm app for payments through the country's popular unified payment interface (UPI)

Former President Donald Trump is expected to return to a federal courtroom Thursday in a felony case involving his alleged mishandling of classified documents after leaving office. During Thursday's hearing, Trump's lawyers will ask to have charges dismissed that he illegally retained top secret government documents after leaving the White House. Trump's lawyers will argue that the Presidential Records Act of 1978 gave him the authority to designate government records as personal and to keep them after he left office. Special counsel Jack Smith says the documents law does not apply to classified material. The Department of Justice said that on Jan. 17, 2022, Trump provided 15 boxes containing 197 documents after the National Archives demanded he turn over records. On June 3, 2022, the DOJ said Trump’s attorneys handed over 38 additional classified documents. Then on Aug. 8, 2022, federal officials issued a search warrant. The DOJ said the warrant turned up 102 additional documents with classified markings. The indictment alleges that Trump kept classified documents in a ballroom, in bathrooms and in showers at Mar-a-Lago. It also says that on at least two occasions Trump showed documents to individuals who were unauthorized to view classified documents. The classified documents case before Judge Aileen Cannon is one of several criminal cases Trump is facing. He is also involved in a separate federal trial surrounding his involvement in the Jan. 6 insurrection. He faces charges in New York that he allegedly falsified business records. He is also facing a trial in Georgia over allegations he illegally tried to overthrow the results of the 2020 election. Trending stories at Scrippsnews.com

Rocky Sharma is CEO at The Procurement School. 2x CEO, 3x Head of Product. Stanford GSB alumnus. Venice is among the world’s oldest cities. Shaped like a fish, the city is known for its beauty, trade and romance. On a recent trip, I explored the city's rich history with local historians and guides who specialized in Venice for their PhD studies. Through them, I gained some unique insights into the area. This sparked some ideas about what Venice could teach us about product management. Optimization: Longevity Requires Listening And Adapting Its geographic location surrounded by water made Venice difficult to conquer for much of its history. Almost all countries in Europe heavily traded with Venice and were dependent on the area for commerce. And when there was a conflict in Europe, Venice often took a neutral stance. But then came Napoleon, ruler of France. He set his eyes on Venice and conquered it. What was so different about Venice or Napoleon that changed the tide? Other countries progressed in trade, giving competition to Venice. What was once unique and competitive from an export/trade perspective was no longer a compelling offering. When Napoleon’s army marched toward Venice, countries across Europe that were once dependent on Venice did not offer any resistance. Hence, Venice fell as a republic and later became a part of Italy. Similarly, in product management, just because customers love your products today does not mean that they will keep loving your products unconditionally. Customers change. Markets dwindle. Competitors progress. Economy unravels. Government policies shift. As a product executive, keeping a pulse on all these areas is important or else your products might face stagnation and eventual death. Sears and Blackberry are examples of this. Hence, at the bare minimum, a product should meet its product market fit in order to survive by keeping the product optimized to serve its target customers. Systemization: Proper Planning Builds Trust Venice was formed when Rome was conquered, and the people who didn’t comply with the new rules or were a threat chose to flee to a new place. Tree trunks were laid down underwater with clay that choked oxygen. This led to the creation of land in Venice. It is like walking on a forest upside down. Consider the same innovation remaining static or undergoing minimal maintenance for nearly a thousand years. I was astonished to learn from historians that they had no answer to the question of what the exit plan is in case the entire city needs evacuation. It is prohibitively expensive to activate any existing safekeeping measures across Venice, which is a collection of 118 islands connected by hundreds of bridges. The generic answer was high tides are predictable. In short, there is no large-scale exit strategy. What if it isn’t predictable one day? Belief is not a strategy. Similarly, when clear market signals based on facts are ignored by a product or organization, it can lead to the demise of the product, shutdown of the organization and loss of livelihood for employees. Hence, proper systems need to be in place for the product to be monitored and supported—or it could lead to a loss of trust and fleeing customers, impacting your margins and leaving no room for growth and innovation. After you optimize the business processes, I think the next best step is to automate and add intelligence to your systems and tools in order to help your organization be proactive versus reactive. Innovation: You Need A Solid Foundation In Order To Innovate Venice was once one of the most economically rich cities in the world. Cut to today and the infrastructure of Venice is crumbling. Locals showed me markings on their walls to demonstrate the water level from when the city floods. It could be up to the first floor. Venice does not have the necessary means to protect all its residents, as indicated by the government requesting locals to consider moving out and placing restrictions on the number of tourists and big ships reaching its shore. What was once innovative and a mark of brilliance is now a liability that requires huge capital to sustain. Like an archaeologist searching for hidden treasures, a product manager should constantly work on their product. Consider the process of deciding what, where and how deep to dig as well as the duration, budget and skill requirements involved—all while determining when to cease digging or transition to a new location entirely. Constant innovation marks the difference between long-term, sustainable products and ones that wither away. A key challenge is that product leaders and company executives often like to work on innovation first since it is exciting and appeals more to investors, customers and employees. In comparison, systemization can seem boring and routine, offering little excitement. However, if the foundation of the product, organization, processes and systems are unstable, then what will happen to all that innovation when an organization is unable to operate efficiently and effectively? What happens when you are unable to pay vendors, investors and employees and fulfill your regular business and societal commitments? In summary, I believe that optimization, systemization and innovation (in that sequence) are the way to go in product strategy no matter the size of your company. If this sequence cannot be followed, then I at least recommend that product executives and organizations spend their time, budget and people simultaneously on optimization (50% to 70%), systemization (20% to 30%) and innovation (10% to 20%). As the product and processes optimize, your percentages can gradually be made more flexible—all while keeping the product margins and market forces in mind. Forbes Business Council is the foremost growth and networking organization for business owners and leaders. Do I qualify?

In the memoir, written with Italian journalist Fabio Marchese Ragona, Francis traces key moments of his life and their intersection with world events (World War II, Argentina’s military dictatorship and Vatican intrigue) and how they together inform his priorities as pope. Significantly, he addresses recurring speculation about his health problems, criticism from conservatives and what both may mean for the future of his pontificate. Such questions have always surrounded the papacy but the prospect of a papal resignation only became a reality with the late Pope Benedict XVI 's historic 2013 retirement. Francis, who had part of one lung removed as a young man, has been battling bronchitis, the flu and a cold on and off this winter and for the past two weeks has asked an aide to read most of his speeches. He had a chunk of his large intestine removed in 2021 and was hospitalized three times last year, including once to remove intestinal scar tissue from previous surgeries to address diverticulosis, or bulges in his intestinal wall. In his memoir, he stressed that the papacy is a job for life but that “if a serious physical impediment” occurs, he has already penned a letter of resignation that is being held in the Secretariat of State. “But this is, I repeat, a distant possibility, because I truly do not have any cause serious enough to make me think of resigning,” he said. “Some people may have hoped that sooner or later, perhaps after a stay in the hospital, I might make an announcement of that kind, but there is no risk of it: Thanks be to God, I enjoy good health, and as I have said, there are many projects to bring to fruition, God willing." Francis acknowledged that critics inside the Vatican and out have accused him of destroying the papacy and have tried to block the reforms that he was mandated by cardinals to enact as a result of his 2013 election. “There was a strong desire to change things, to abandon certain attitudes, which, sadly, have proved difficult to eradicate,” he said. “Needless to say, there are always some who wish to put the brakes on reform, who want things always to stay as they were during the days of pope kings.” In the memoir, Francis doubled down on his recent decision to allow Catholic priests to bless same-sex couples and denied that the criticism that erupted could split the church. Africa's bishops as a whole, as well as individual conservative bishops around the world, have said they would not follow the new directive. “I just want to say that God loves everyone, especially sinners. And if my brother bishops, according to their discernment, decide not to follow this path it doesn’t mean that this is the antechamber to schism, because the church’s doctrine is not brought into question,” Francis said. He reaffirmed his support for civil unions while ruling out gay marriage, saying "it is right that these people who experience the gift of love should have the same legal protections as everyone else." He reasoned that Jesus spent time with people who lived on the margins of society “and that is what the church should be doing today with members of the LGBTQ+ community.” “Make them feel at home, especially those who have been baptized and are in every respect among God’s people," he said. "And those who have not been baptized and would like to be, or who would like to be godfathers or godmothers: let them be welcomed, please; let them follow a careful pathway to personal discernment.”

CDC Relaxes COVID Guidelines; Will Schools, Day Cares Follow Suit? Four years after the COVID-19 pandemic closed schools and upended child care, the CDC says parents can start treating the virus like other respiratory illnesses. Gone are mandated isolation periods and masking. But will schools and child care centers agree? In case you’ve lost track: Before Friday, all Americans, including school children, were supposed to stay home for at least five days if they had COVID-19 and then mask for a set period of time, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now, with COVID deaths and hospitalizations dropping, the CDC says children can go back to school when their overall symptoms improve and they’re fever-free for 24 hours without taking medication. Students are “encouraged” to wear a mask when they return. Still, the change may not affect how individual schools urge parents to react when their children fall sick. Schools and child care providers have a mixed record on following CDC recommendations and often look to local authorities for the ultimate word. And sometimes other goals, such as reducing absences, can influence a state or district’s decisions. The result can be a confusing array of policies among states and districts, not to mention workplaces — confounding parents whose lives have long been upended by the virus. “This is so confusing,” said Gloria Cunningham, a single mom in the Boston area. “I just don’t know what I should think of COVID now. Is it still a monster?” Cunningham, who manages a local store for a national restaurant chain, said her company requires her to take off 10 days if she gets COVID-19. And the school system where her son is in second grade has still been sending home COVID test kits for kids to use before returning to school after long breaks. “I feel like we should just do away with anything that treats COVID differently or keep all of the precautions,” she said. The public education system has long held varying policies on COVID. During the 2021-22 school year, 18 states followed CDC recommendations for mask-wearing in class. When the CDC lifted its masking guidelines in February 2022, states such as Massachusetts followed suit, but California kept the mask requirement for schools. And in the child care world, some providers have long used more stringent testing and isolation protocols than the CDC has recommended. Reasons have ranged from trying to prevent outbreaks to keeping staff healthy — both for their personal safety and to keep the day care open. Some states moved to more lenient guidelines ahead of the CDC. California and Oregon recently rescinded COVID-19 isolation requirements, and many districts followed their advice. In an attempt to minimize school absences and address an epidemic of chronic absenteeism, California has encouraged kids to come to school when mildly sick and said that students who test positive for coronavirus but are asymptomatic can attend school. Los Angeles and San Diego’s school systems, among others, have adopted that policy. But the majority of big-city districts around the country still have asked parents to isolate children for at least five days before returning to school. Some, including Boston and Atlanta, have required students to mask for another five days and report positive COVID-19 test results to the school. Some school leaders suggest the CDC’s previous five-day isolation requirement was already only loosely followed. Official policy in Burlington, Massachusetts, has been to have students stay home for five days if they test positive. But Superintendent Eric Conti said the real policy, in effect, is: “It’s a virus. Deal with it.” That’s because COVID is managed at home, using the honor system. “Without school-based testing, no one can enforce a five-day COVID policy,” he said via text message. Ridley School District in the Philadelphia suburbs was already using a policy similar to the new CDC guidelines, said Superintendent Lee Ann Wentzel. Students who test positive for COVID must be fever-free without medication for at least 24 hours before returning to school. When they come back, they must mask for five days. Wentzel said the district is now considering dropping the masking requirement because of the new CDC guidance. A school or day care’s specific guidelines are consequential for working parents who must miss work if their child can’t go to school or child care. In October 2023, during simultaneous surges of COVID, respiratory syncytial virus and influenza, 104,000 adults reported missing work because of child care issues, the highest number in at least a decade. That number has fallen: Last month, child care problems meant 41,000 adults missed work, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Melissa Colagrosso’s child care center in West Virginia dropped special guidelines for COVID about a year ago, she said. Now, they’re the same as other illnesses: A child must be free of severe symptoms such as fever for at least 24 hours before returning to the center. “We certainly are treating COVID just like we would treat flu or hand, foot and mouth” disease, said Colagrosso, CEO of A Place To Grow Children’s Center in Oak Hill. As for kids without symptoms who test positive for COVID? Most parents have stopped testing kids unless they have symptoms, Colagrasso said, so it’s a quandary she has not encountered. Still, some parents worry the relaxed rules put their communities at greater risk. Evelyn Alemán leads a group of Latino and Indigenous immigrant parents in Los Angeles County. The parents she represents, many of whom suffer from chronic illnesses and lack of access to health care, panicked when California did away with isolation requirements in January. “I don’t think they’re considering what the impact will be for our families,” she said of California officials. “It feels like they don’t care — that we’re almost expendable.” Other impacts of the pandemic linger, too, even as restrictions are lifted. In Ridley, the Philadelphia-area district, more students are reclusive and struggle to interact in-person with peers, said Wentzel, the superintendent. Interest in school dances has plummeted. “Emotionally,” Wentzel said, “they’re having trouble.”

Katie Britt Used Sex Trafficking Story Multiple Times This Year: Report AD NAUSEUM Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) used a graphic tale of sex trafficking and rape to bash President Joe Biden’s immigration policies in the GOP’s official response to his State of the Union address last week, only for it to be quickly revealed that the story actually took place during George W. Bush’s administration. But it turns out that Britt really, really likes that particular anecdote; so much so that she’s brought it up at least five separate times in the last year, according to an analysis by NBC News. The network reported Wednesday that the Alabama senator has invoked Jacinto Romero’s ordeal in connection to Biden at press conferences and during cable news interviews. Though she has never directly named Romero, a spokesperson for Britt’s office previously confirmed that she had been talking about her in the SOTU rebuttal. Romero told CNN on Tuesday that she felt Britt had misrepresented her experience. In a statement, Britt didn’t directly respond to NBC News’ request for comment about her repeated distortions, instead saying that it was “past time for the media to stop covering for Joe Biden’s re-election campaign and start talking about the immense, very real human suffering that’s occurring right now under his policies.”

Keeping her accessories to a minimum, the former Miss Universe Australia slipped on a simple black watch and studded earrings to elevate her look. Jesinta then posed up a storm for photographers as she stepped into a pair of pointed black pumps. Highlighting her genetically blessed features with a minimal makeup look, the brunette beauty softly curled her dark tresses and let them tumble down her back.

Western Cape ranked the least safe province for women while Limpopo is most safe The Western Cape is ranked the least safe province for women followed by Gauteng and the Eastern Cape, while Limpopo is considered the safest province to live in, followed by Mpumalanga and North West. This is according to a survey of 6,500 women by 1st For Women insurance, matched with reported crime statistics per 100,000 capita for murders, sexual offences and rape, assaults with intent to inflict grievous bodily harm, carjackings, robberies at residential premises, property-related crimes, burglaries and vehicle theft. The survey highlights perceptions of safety while doing various everyday actions, such as walking alone during the day or night, driving alone, being at home alone, going out with friends and also experiences of being a victim of crime. It found only 3.6% of South African women feel safe in the province they live. “Of those surveyed, Limpopo had the lowest number of females who felt ‘unsafe’ or ‘completely unsafe’, as well as who had been a victim of a crime, aligning with the findings from the most recent Victims of Crime Survey [by Stats SA]. When considering crime reports, it also indexed best for lowest community-reported serious crimes, murders, assaults, property-related crimes (including burglaries) and theft of motor vehicles or motorcycles.” The Western Cape was bottom in the safety index (scoring 37.47) as it had the highest reported crimes per 100,000 capita for community-reported serious crimes, property-related crimes and theft of, or from, a vehicle, head of 1st For Women Insurance Seugnette van Wyngaard said. “However, despite reports of some crimes being high, this does not necessarily mean they are more frequent. The region has a well-established infrastructure for reporting crimes and, as such, higher crime stats could be down to a more supportive reporting culture, which is a positive rather than a negative,” she said. The survey revealed many women feel ‘unsafe’ or ‘completely unsafe’ in everyday situations in their province. “This included walking alone at night (98%), driving alone (77%), going out with friends (63%), walking alone during the day (66%) and even being alone at home (54%). Sadly, many respondents had already been victims to a crime (61%) including a house robbery or break-in (32%), cellphone theft (24%), handbag theft (13%), smash and grab (8%), gender-based violence (6%) and hijacking (5%). “While the Northern Cape and North West exhibit some areas of concern, with high crime figures for specific categories of reported theft of motor vehicles and burglaries, both provinces scored very well in the overall category of ‘feeling safe in the province.’ However, the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, and Free State showed mixed safety performances across all categories. Gauteng follows closely behind, with most respondents feeling unsafe, especially in the ‘walking alone at night’ category.” Thirty percent of the women surveyed are considering emigration due to safety concerns. The UK was identified as the most sought-after destination (20%), followed by Canada (18%), Australia (17%), New Zealand (13%), the US (10%) and UAE (6%). Ten tips to women for staying safe: - Stay informed: Keep abreast of local news and crime updates. Awareness of your surroundings is the first step towards personal safety. - Buddy system: Arrange to travel with a friend or colleague if you believe an area or journey is unsafe. There's strength in numbers, and companionship adds an extra layer of security. - Avoid risky areas: Be mindful of your route and avoid poorly lit or unfamiliar areas, especially at night. - Self-defence classes: Equip yourself with basic self-defence skills. Attend workshops or classes to enhance your ability to protect yourself if needed. - Use technology to your advantage: Leverage safety apps such as the Guardian Angel App, designed to send alerts and your location to chosen contacts in case of an emergency. - Home security: Invest in robust home security measures. Install quality locks, alarms, security doors, and surveillance cameras to safeguard your residence. - Car safety: Ensure your vehicle is well-maintained and has working safety features. Be cautious of your surroundings, especially during car trips. - Insurance for protection: Secure your assets with reliable car and home insurance. These serve as financial safeguards in case of theft or damage. - Trust your instincts: If something feels off, trust your instincts. If a situation seems unsafe, remove yourself from the situation and seek help as soon as possible. - Emergency numbers: Save emergency contacts in your phone and have them easily accessible so you know who to call in a crisis.

Local priest to take on epic challenge this summer A community news update from your area A parish priest from Bolton is taking on an epic challenge this summer to raise funds to help local people experiencing poverty, homelessness and discrimination, and is asking local schools and individuals to join him. Father Chris Gorton, from the Parish of St Cuthbert in Bolton, is running the Camino de Santiago in aid of local charity Caritas Salford, a distance of 924 kilometres - or 574 miles - the equivalent of running from Manchester to Dundee and back again. His challenge will start on September 16 and will be completed on October 23. He’s asking schools to consider taking on a challenge of their own by pledging to run or walk a set distance every day that he is running, or to agree to walk for a set time each day (for example fifteen minutes each lunchtime). He said: “I want it to be a shared experience to help raise awareness and funds for the different Caritas projects which are close to my heart. It will hopefully encourage other people to take on the challenge of walking the Camino or taking on another challenge in aid of Caritas, and to challenge the children and young people to achieve something very worthwhile in their own setting. I hope it will also give them the confidence to try other challenges. “Runners are called Rungrims but I’ll certainly be putting the shell on my rucksack to make it clear this is a pilgrimage too. The medieval Christian world talked about the four stages of pilgrimage: the first is the call to go and I really sense that. I look forward to sharing some of the moments of training and challenges along the way.” Father Chris’s challenge is part of Caritas Salford’s Every Step campaign, which is asking people to consider doing a challenge - whether physical or mental - that pushes them out of their comfort zone in 2024. A special pack has been put together for local schools, with resources available to help them as they take part in the challenge too. The charity runs a wide range of services in communities across Greater Manchester and Lancashire, providing crisis support for people experiencing poverty, homelessness or are at risk of becoming homeless, and who are facing isolation or discrimination. They also work with people to help them to transform their lives for the long-term. Patrick O’Dowd, director of Caritas Salford, said: “We’re in awe of this amazing challenge that Father Chris has set himself and we can’t wait to hear more as he continues his training. It’s an incredible distance to run and it’s fantastic that schools are going to be joining in their own way to mark his challenge too. “As the cost-of-living crisis continues to hit people in the communities we work with locally hard, demand for our services is continuing to rise. This is against an economic backdrop which means costs to deliver those services are also increasing, while funding is reducing or proving more difficult to access. That’s why the generous support of people like Father Chris is so vital and we can’t thank him and anyone else who is able to consider raising funds enough. We really do appreciate it and couldn’t do what we do to support local people without you.” To find out more about the Every Step campaign and Father Chris’ challenge, or to sign up to take on a challenge of your own this year, visit the website here.

New footage shows Anthony Joshua practising exact punch that knocked out Francis Ngannou ‘AJ’ dropped the ex-UFC champion three times with a right cross, and while the punch is common, the Briton’s conviction in the strike stood out New footage has shown Anthony Joshua practising the exact punch that knocked out Francis Ngannou last week, when the Briton ran through the ex-UFC heavyweight champion in Saudi Arabia. “AJ” dropped Ngannou three times on Friday (8 March), with the final knockdown leaving the Cameroonian out cold on the canvas. Each knockdown came courtesy of a right cross from Joshua, 34, and Dazn has now shared footage of the former two-time unified champion practising that punch in his locker room before the fight. While the punch is a common one, Joshua’s conviction in the strike stood out in the ring, and that same execution is visible in the backstage video of AJ’s warm-up. Joshua’s second-round stoppage of Ngannou, 37, made it four wins in a row for the Briton, who outpointed Jermaine Franklin in April before stopping Robert Helenius and Otto Wallin in August and December respectively. Before those wins, Joshua suffered back-to-back losses to Oleksandr Usyk, who will box WBC champion Tyson Fury in Riyadh on 18 May. The victor of that bout will be crowned the first undisputed heavyweight champion in 24 years. Joshua may be in line to face the winner, although Fury has claimed that a rematch clause will see him box Usyk twice in 2024. A rematch between Fury and the Ukrainian would leave the IBF title vacant, and in such a scenario, Joshua could fight Filip Hrgovic for that belt. Ngannou has only boxed twice, having made his debut in the sport against Fury in October. The Cameroonian dropped the Briton before losing a controversial decision. Ngannou left the UFC in early 2023 before signing with the Professional Fighters League, with whom he is expected to resume his mixed martial arts career this year. The “Predator” last fought in MMA in January 2022, retaining the UFC heavyweight title, which he later vacated upon leaving the promotion.

Girl, 7, allegedly sexually assaulted by grade 7 pupil at Limpopo school When she returned home, the child revealed that a grade 7 pupil from her school had “put a stick inside her private parts and she is feeling pain”. An urgent investigation is under way in Limpopo after a seven-year-old girl was allegedly sexually assaulted by a grade 7 pupil. The incident was reported to have occurred on Monday between 8am and 2pm at a primary school in Phalaborwa. Police spokesperson Col Malesela Ledwaba said the girl called her mother at work to complain about discomfort in her private area. “Subsequently, upon returning home, the child revealed that a grade 7 learner from her school put a stick inside her private parts and she is feeling pain. The victim was swiftly transported to the nearest hospital for medical attention and has been admitted for further care and evaluation,” said Ledwaba. Ledwaba said the incident was reported to the Phalaborwa police and a case was registered and transferred to the family violence, child protection, and sexual offences unit in Phalaborwa for further investigation. “Given that the alleged perpetrator is a minor, a thorough assessment will be conducted by a probation officer or social worker as part of the investigative process,” he said. Limpopo police commissioner Lt-Gen Thembi Hadebe said schools should be secure environments where pupils can concentrate on their studies without fear of sexual abuse or bullying. Hadebe urged parents to prioritise open communication and foster trusting relationships with their children. By doing so, she said, children will feel safe “and encouraged to confide in their parents about any instances of this kind, ensuring their wellbeing and safety”.

Anime RPG Granblue Fantasy: Relink gets its biggest update yet with free new quest Plus fixes for progression blocks, multiplayer balancing and camera Granblue Fantasy: Relink has received a sizeable game update, which adds a new, difficult quest, The Final Vision, some additional camera and aim sensitivity settings, and new Steam trophies. That's in addition to a brace of bug fixes, character-specific balancing tweaks for multiplayer, and assorted quality-of-life improvements, including visual and audio indicators to indicate when you've lost your buffs. Our Alice B described Cygames' latest as a "slick JRPG wedded to the rule of cool" in our Granblue Fantasy: Relink review, noting that "the combat is kind of weightless, but it's layered and fun - if you can be bothered to get to the bottom of it". There are certainly layers to the version 1.1.1 patch notes. The bits about changes to characters are a fusillade of nitty-gritty observations like "Io should no longer lose the Mystic Vortex status effect even after taking a hit from an attack that removes positive status effects". Fans of Ghandagoza, meanwhile, will rejoice in the knowledge that they've nixed a problem that stopped you dodging right after performing an aerial barrage, while Cagliostro players will be happy to learn that "objects transmuted as part of a link attack should now hit foes with greater accuracy". I still haven't played Granblue Fantasy: Relink (with suspiciously good timing, Alice B is on holiday today, or I'd have asked her write this piece) and reading the full patch notes feels a bit like trying to glean map directions from waterfalls of Matrix code. I feel like all patch note writers should learn from Larian, whose patch notes are often very funny for all their absurd intricacy. Let's persevere. You'll need to polish off The Tale of Bahamut's Rage to access the new Final Vision quest. The quest introduces two new characters, Lucilius and Sandalphon: completing it unlocks new sigils with new traits at the Knickknack Shack's Treasure Trade. As for those extra camera options, camera sensitivity and aim sensitivity both now have two separate settings for vertical and horizontal movement speed, and the maximum sensitivity for each setting has been raised from 10 to 20. The developers have also adjusted the camera to stay centered on a locked-on foe that's far away whenever possible, and fixed a problem that caused auto-targeting to lock onto a blameless ice pillar on Mt.

The more important-sounding bug fixes include a fix for an outright progression blocker if the chapter before Chapter Ø (yes, that's Ø not 0) was played via chapter select before clearing Chapter Ø - if you're affected by this bug, quitting the chapter should restore progression. The game will also warn you about having fewer than four characters in your party before entering one particular section of chapter 4 (I'm guessing a lot of players have walked in understaffed and been murdered by some kind of boss).

Mum moans about woman telling her son off in restaurant - but everyone says the same thing The woman asked if she was being unreasonable for being annoyed by the woman - but social media users all came to the same conclusion. A mum was left fuming after a fellow restaurant guest drew attention to her poorly behaved son - but was met with the same response from fellow parents. The mum explained how while eating in a family pub, an “indoor play area” led to her three-year-old son getting “a bit hyper”. She added he was “normally really good” in restaurants - but was “admittedly being really silly.” In particular, her child was “swinging back on his chair and running off and not eating.” The mum said she was “doing [her] best to deal with it” - but another eater at the restaurant seemed to disagree. Explaining what happened on Mumsnet, the mum said: “A woman sitting at the table behind us kept interfering and shrieking ‘he’ll fall!’ every time he was swinging on his chair and making comments about him and us.” She added: “I don’t think it was coming from a bad place but am I being unreasonable in thinking it really wasn’t appropriate? It was stressful and meant we couldn’t deal with our son properly as she was taking our attention.” The mum said her son was “far from the only badly behaved child there.” However, commenters almost unanimously sided with the other woman, with one accusing her of a “parenting fail”. “I feel for the poor woman trying to enjoy her meal,” they said. “You should have taken your child straight out and not allowed him to be 'silly'. Parenting fail on your behalf I'm afraid.” Another added: “How rude of you. Remove the unruly child and don't take him out to eat if he cannot behave. “Good on the lady who vocally challenged your lack of parenting.” Don't miss... 'Gorgeous' 65-year-old looks young enough to be her granddaughter's sister [REVEAL] 'I slept with my future father-in-law while on a family cruise holiday' [INSIGHT] 'I'm a terrible mother for saying this but I hate my daughter' [ANALYSIS] While a third warned that her son was potentially in danger, saying: “Swinging back on a chair is hugely dangerous. What were you doing to stop him? I know of two children who cracked their heads open when their chair fell back after they'd been swinging on it.” And another was sympathetic to the other guest’s plight, writing: “Sounds like she was worried and anxiety meant she couldn't help herself. Sounds like a nightmare I'd hate. “Regardless of other children, your own should be your focus. When you go out and want to enjoy a meal if you don't have the type of child that can behave in public you might need to reassess as the way you've described it he sounds unruly and disruptive.”

COUNCILLORS want action taken on parked vehicles blocking dropped kerbs intended to help people in wheelchairs or with pushchairs cross roads. Members of Torfaen Borough Council’s cleaner communities scrutiny committee were told the council’s enforcement officers have the power to issue fixed penalty notices to vehicles parked across the access points. Pontnewydd councillor Stuart Ashley said: “Every time I look at a dropped kerb there seems to be a car parked across them.” The Labour member wondered if it would be possible to put “some form of physical barrier up to make it more difficult to park across” and acknowledged it isn’t always “obvious” to drivers where the kerb has been lowered. Mark Thomas, the council’s head of highways, said ‘H bar’ marking can be painted on the road and added: “Some areas have looked at trialling bollards but we’ve got to be mindful of the impact on the disabled community, especially the partially sighted.” Councillors raised concerns at how illegal parking can be reported to the council and officers said it isn’t possible to respond immediately to complaints but said that information would be used to inform patrols.

The Peshawar High Court on Thursday dismissed the Sunni Ittehad Council’s petition challenging the Election Commission of Pakistan’s decision to reject the party allocation of reserved women and minority seats. In a 4-1 verdict earlier this month, the electoral watchdog ruled that the SIC was not entitled to claim quota for reserved seats “due to having non curable legal defects and violation of a mandatory provision of submission of party list for reserved seats which is the requirement of law”. The SIC — joined by PTI-backed independents who won the elections sans their electoral symbol — had filed the petition through its chairman, Sahibzada Muhammad Hamid Raza, seeking directives of the court for the ECP to allocate reserved seats to the council based on their strength in the national and provincial assemblies. The commission had also decided to distribute the seats among other parliamentary parties, with the PML-N and the PPP becoming major beneficiaries. Meanwhile, the verdict was rejected by the PTI as unconstitutional. On March 6, a two-member bench of the PHC had barred the oath-taking of lawmakers allotted the reserved seats. It issued a pre-admission to the ECP and all the respondents in the case, listing six questions that needed to be determined. The next day, a five-member larger bench extended the bar until March 13. Yesterday, Attorney-General for Pakistan Mansoor Usman Awan and the counsels for the PPP and ECP had completed their arguments. AGP Awan had argued that a political party could get reserved seats only if it won a general one. ECP lawyer Sikander Basheer Momand had supported his arguments, stating that the SIC was a political party but not a parliamentary one. Today, the bench — led by Justice Ishtiaq Ibrahim and including Justices Ijaz Anwar, S.M. Attique Shah, Shakeel Ahmed and Syed Arshad Ali — resumed hearing the case. PTI’s Ali Zafar appeared as the counsel for the SIC and completed his arguments, following which the court reserved its verdict and said it would announce it at 1pm. The hearing At the outset of the hearing, Zafar informed the court that 86 independent candidates from National Assembly, 107 from Punjab Assembly, 90 from KP Assembly, 9 from Sindh Assembly and one from Balochistan Assembly had joined the SIC. He contended that the SIC should have been allocated reserved seats “under Article 104’s section (c)” (party lists for reserved seats) of the Elections Act. “We expected that we would get the reserved seats. The ECP was mandated to allot 78 seats to the SIC but it did not do so.” Here, the court asked him if the case before it was pertaining to the entire country, to which Zafar replied that it was limited to the national and KP assemblies’ reserved seats. Zafar further said the reserved seats “belonging to the SIC were instead given to occupier groups”, at which the court directed him to not refer to them as such, noting that the seats were allotted by the ECP. The lawyer then said he wanted to present his arguments on whether the PHC had jurisdiction over NA seats, emphasising that “six questions raised by the court are very important”. On the matter of what defines a political party, he said: “In my opinion, a political party is that which is enlisted [with the ECP as one]. The mention of [the definition of] a political party is present in sections 202 (enlistment of political parties) and 210 (information about the sources of funds) of the Elections Act.” Zafar argued, “The SIC did not contest the elections but this is not necessary. Boycott is also a part of the elections.” Here, the court asked him, “Are you saying that a party would still be a political party if it did not contest the elections?” To this, Zafar responded that the SIC had an electoral symbol and the right to contest elections. The court then asked whether a political party maintained its status as one if it did not contest elections. The counsel then replied, “I want to state that the SIC is a political party. No one can take away the SIC’s right as long as it is a political party. The mention of political justice is clear in the Constitution. […] Political parties can take part in elections, form government and gain reserved seats.” Here, Justice Ahmed reiterated the earlier question of what would happen in case the party did not take part in the elections, at which Zafar replied that we was first presenting arguments on his “rights as a political party” as per Article 17 (freedom of association) of the Constitution. “The ECP is confused at differentiating between a parliamentary party and a poltical one,” he asserted. Upon the court observing that the SIC had not won any general seat in the Feb 8 elections, Zafar acknowledged the same and insisted that it still existed as a political party. “[For example, if] I did not take part [in the elections] and 10 independent candidates joined me, then the number of [seats] would be 10,” he argued. However, the court pointed out that if he had not won even a single seat, the supposed 10 independents would not be able to join him. It emphasised that the word “win” had been used in the law. “Did you not weaken the PTI’s case by joining the SIC?” the court wondered, at which Zafar recalled that the PTI had lost its electoral symbol and was “disqualified”. The SIC counsel argued against allocating other political parties a greater number of seats “than they had won”. Here, Justice Ibrahim observed that the Parliament would then be “incomplete” if the reserved seats were not allocated. Zafar then replied, “This is why we are asking you to interpret the Constitution in a manner so that this vaccuum is not created.” The SIC counsel said the ECP “could also issue another schedule” that would enable it to submit the list of candidates for reserved seats. The court then remarked, “If you add anything to zero, it equals to zero.” “It would be a better interpretation that the election schedule for the reserve seats is released after the [general] elections. Section 104 says that a day would be fixed but does not specify when.” “What law would be violated by alloting the SIC reserved seats?” he asked, adding that his client was only asking for its “right — no more or less than that”. Zafar then completed his arguments. Subsequently, the PHC reserved its verdict on the matter and said it would announce it at 1pm.

Founder & CEO of Alp Bora & Co., Alp Bora talks about mining, sustainability and corporate culture. In many ways, 2023 marked a turning point in labor relations—it’s been a big year for unions. From Hollywood writers and actors to the United Auto Workers, in 2023 we saw major unions make jaw-dropping demands—and win. For the industries affected, dealing with dramatically increased labor costs, the road ahead just got steeper and more uncertain. In my view, we are approaching a tipping point in mining too. Access to critical minerals could determine the winners and losers of tomorrow. Right now, mining companies in North America and the West aren't looking like the winners in the current state of the industry. Labor deals and ever-changing environmental policies have impacted our mining companies in the global market. We need to rethink how we handle the management-worker relationship and the role of unions within that. Labor Unrest While the rest of the world is in a tough geopolitical competition to see who will dominate the critical minerals war, increasingly long and contentious strikes at mines in North America are impacting the industry. Windsor Salt in Ontario, Canada, experienced a 192-day strike before an agreement was finally reached in August 2023. The Warrior Met strike in Alabama lasted a full two years—one of the longest in U.S. history. If this type of labor unrest continues, we could face daunting questions: • Will the North American mining industry be able to meet the massively increased demand created by the transition to cleaner, greener technologies? • Will our industry be able to reliably provide critical minerals to the many supply chains that rely on us? The Impact Of Unions Labor unions in the West have a long history of making mining companies the safe, reliable workplaces they are today. The first mine workers’ union in the United States, the American Miners' Association, dates back to 1861. Although short-lived, it grew out of a desire for the things we take for granted today: reasonable working hours, better ventilation and increased mine safety. Across all industries, labor unions have made a positive impact on our careers and daily lives. The widespread adoption of the 40-hour work week in the U.S., for example—eight hours a day, five days a week—came out of union lobbying. Later, it was made popular by Henry Ford, who moved Ford to a 40-hour work week for optimal workforce productivity. Labor unions today have been in decline for years, in terms of membership. Four decades ago, in 1983, labor unions represented about 20% of U.S. companies. Today, U.S. union membership has fallen to just over 10%, marking an all-time low. In the private sector, it’s only 6%. Yet, despite these declines, in terms of strikes and work stoppages, last year saw at least 30 major work stoppages. It was the highest number since 2000, involving more than 460,000 U.S. workers. The cost of these strikes was staggering. The UAW strike alone had a financial impact of more than $10 billion. With the lucrative contracts that unions won out of last year’s labor conflicts, it’s reasonable to think that this massive hit could potentially be the beginning for the companies involved. A Recipe For Healthier Labor Relations Most workers would much rather be on the job than on the picket line, and corporate management, of course, would rather be operational. But strikes don’t just jeopardize the immediate future of the mining industry—they could jeopardize its long-term viability. So what could be the recipe for better labor relations in mining? It should be obvious, but unfortunately, it’s not. From my perspective, collaboration and transparency are the only way forward. Both sides need to recognize they are on the same side, not just in terms of the overall success of our industry, but also in terms of worker well-being. Safe workplaces, fair wages, and equitable treatment are things we all want and benefit from. Unions can participate in management decisions, and help make those decisions better. Management can create opportunities for consultation and collaboration with union representatives, building trust and aligning interests in the process. Management has to be transparent and well-intentioned, defending the company’s viability but not at the cost of workers. Union leaders, too, have to be forthright and honest in their negotiations. Staying Competitive In The Global Context In my work as a consultant, frequently traveling to operations overseas, I’ve seen what we’re up against, in the competition for critical minerals: negative public perceptions, burdensome approvals and environmental policies, and challenging financing environments. We are competing in a fierce global market, yet we don’t want to go back to the dark days of zero oversight and constant danger. There has to be a rebalancing of the key relationship that everything relies upon, the one between workers and management. Attitudes of “us versus them” will get us nowhere. Organized labor isn’t going anywhere, but that doesn’t mean the relationship can’t be reset. We can realign with a focus on our collective success that sees the big picture. Those of us in the mining industry can revamp this culture to not only stay competitive in the global market but also build trust among those operating within the space. But we can’t be held hostage by a mindset that doesn’t consider our collective success, that doesn’t care about the big picture, that only cares about being the winner. If the mining industry allows this culture, then the future is clear: We're all going to lose. Forbes Business Council is the foremost growth and networking organization for business owners and leaders. Do I qualify?

Kites Senior Care Thursday said it has raised Rs 45 crore in Series A round from Ranjan Pai’s Manipal Education and Medical Group (MEMG) Family Office Fund, a year after the startup secured $2 million (Rs 16.6 crore) from him. The company is also raising around Rs 20 crore in debt from other existing investors for the current round of expansion, it told VCCircle. Kites, which focuses on providing out of hospital geriatric care, plans to use the funds to increase its capacity by threefold to nearly 1,098 beds and to expand to Pune, Cochin and Coimbatore in the next 15 months, said Rajagopal G, co-founder and chief executive officer. “This funding will fuel our expansion efforts, allowing us to reach more seniors in need of specialised care while fortifying our position as a leader in the geriatric care sector,” he said. "We have closely observed Kites deliver the promised plan and build solid foundations of a scalable growth model,” Pai said. “This has encouraged us to commit further capital to grow the business to the next stage.” Kites, which is run by Lifebridge Senior Care P Ltd, operates and manages healthcare facilities in Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai. It covers both pre and post hospitalisation rehab care, palliative care and dementia care. It was launched in February 2016. The company is also planning to foray into ‘senior living’, a concept similar to retirement homes in the near future, Rajagopal said. While the company has not roped in new investors for the current round despite receiving interest, it will evaluate raising more capital in the near future, it told VCCircle. The senior care space has seen a lot of interest from investors in the last few months. Elder care platform Age Care Labs raised $11 million in its pre-Series B round from Zerodha’s Rainmatter Capital and Gruhas. Also, Max India is reportedly in talks to sell stake in Antara Assisted Living to private equity players.

The Morning Digest is compiled by David Nir, Jeff Singer, and Stephen Wolf, with additional contributions from the Daily Kos Elections team. Subscribe to The Downballot, our weekly podcast Leading Off ● CO-04: Rep. Lauren Boebert announced Wednesday that she would not run in the June 25 special election to replace her soon-to-be-former colleague, fellow Colorado Republican Ken Buck, but would continue to compete for a full two-year term in the primary taking place that same day. Boebert, who is leaving behind the 3rd District in Western Colorado to campaign for the more conservative 4th at the other end of the state, characteristically used her declaration to accuse Buck and "the uni-party" of announcing his resignation the previous day as part of "a swampy backroom deal to try to rig an election." When NOTUS asked Buck on Tuesday whether he'd thought about how his departure might impact Boebert, he replied, "No, I didn’t consider that." Republican leaders in Buck's 4th District will form a special committee to select the party's nominee for the special election, which the Colorado Sun's Jesse Paul says must convene sometime "within the next few weeks." And while state party chair Dave Williams' told Colorado Politics that the body will be made up of local party leaders and elected officials, Paul notes that Republicans "haven’t said who exactly will be on the committee and how it will operate." Boebert also used a Tuesday appearance on social media with two of her far-right allies, Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz and the disgraced George Santos, to express her hope that the committee would select someone who will not run for a full two-year term. GOP leaders, however, have no obligation to listen to Boebert or Gaetz, who declared, "That is some crazy banana republic shit you've got—you're doing in Colorado." And a trio of Republicans who were already campaigning for the full term say they'll seek the party's nod for the special: conservative talk radio host Deborah Flora, former state Sen. Ted Harvey, and Logan County Commissioner Jerry Sonnenberg. But state Rep. Mike Lynch, who stepped down as minority leader in January before his caucus could eject him over a previously undisclosed 2022 drunk driving arrest, isn't so sure. "Don’t know how they are going to conduct it really or when," he told Paul of the special election nomination. The state Democratic Party, meanwhile, says that its special election committee, which includes about 215 members, will make its selection by April 1. The 4th District, which is based in eastern Colorado and the Denver exurbs, favored Donald Trump 58-39 in 2020, so the Democratic nominee will face a tough battle in June. The Downballot ● The ripple effects of the Dobbs decision are impacting not only the right to an abortion but also abortion funding, IVF, and even recreational sex. Joining us on this week's episode of "The Downballot" is Grace Panetta, a political reporter at The 19th who has closely covered the electoral consequences of this ever-widening set of issues. Panetta highlights key races this year where reproductive rights will take center stage, including ballot initiatives in multiple states, efforts to repeal bans on public funding of abortions, and an upcoming special election in Alabama, the state that just thrust IVF into the limelight. Co-hosts David Nir and David Beard also discuss Ken Buck's highly entertaining resignation, which is making life way more difficult for both Mike Johnson and Lauren Boebert. They then preview next week's primaries in Illinois and Ohio, which will, among other things, determine which Republican will take on one of the most vulnerable Democratic senators up this year, Sherrod Brown.

New episodes every Thursday morning! Senate ● MS-Sen, MS-04: None of Mississippi's members of Congress had trouble winning renomination on Tuesday, though Republican Sen. Roger Wicker's 61% of the vote was an unimpressive primary showing for an incumbent. Retired Marine Col. Ghannon Burton finished a distant second with 25%, though the hard-right challenger carried 10 counties clustered around Tupelo in the northeastern corner of the state; the balance went to another conservative, state Rep. Dan Eubanks. Wicker is the heavy favorite in November against Democrat Ty Pinkins, who lost last year's race for secretary of state to Republican incumbent Michael Watson 59-41. Over in the 4th Congressional District, GOP Rep. Mike Ezell's 73-19 win against wealthy perennial candidate Carl Boyanton means that voters can go at least another two years without hearing Boyanton's "Mike Ezell went to the swamp and became a busy bee" jingle. Donald Trump carried this constituency, which is based along the Gulf Coast, 68-30. Governors ● IN-Gov: Self-funding businessman Eric Doden launched a commercial on Monday attacking Sen. Mike Braun, who is the frontrunner in the May 7 Republican primary for governor, in what may be the first negative TV ad of the race. The offensive began around the same time that the Trump-endorsed Braun released an internal poll from Mark It Red showing him easily defeating Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch 41-12, with Doden and the rest of the field in single digits. No one has released numbers to contradict the idea that Braun is on course to win unless he's taken down. Doden is hoping to do just that with a spot that utilizes a 2020 clip of then-Fox News talking head Tucker Carlson badgering the senator for spearheading a bill to reform qualified immunity for law enforcement personnel. "The country's burning not because cops are burning it down, but because the mob is," Carlson tells Braun, continuing, "but you think the morally culpable party is the police, so you're making it easier for left-wing groups to sue them." Braun stopped promoting his legislation following Carlson's attacks. ● MO-Gov: YouGov's new survey for Saint Louis University finds Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft leading Lt. Gov. Mike Kehoe 28-10 in the August GOP primary, with state Sen. Bill Eigel at 8% and a 49% plurality undecided. This poll was in the field for 13 days from Feb. 14 to Feb. 26, which is one day less than the 14-day maximum that Daily Kos Elections permits for inclusion in the Digest. YouGov also took a look at the Democratic contest, but it shows that a hefty 66% of respondents are undecided. State House Minority Leader Crystal Quade takes 21%, while businessman Mike Hamra is at 5%. House ● CA-09: The NRCC has dusted off a mid-February internal poll from NMB Research that shows the GOP candidate, Stockton Mayor Kevin Lincoln, outpacing Democratic Rep. Josh Harder 44-40. The Washington Examiner, which first reported the survey, did not mention presidential numbers in its writeup, but the National Journal's Hotline says that respondents favor Joe Biden 45-43. Biden carried this Stockton-based seat 55-43 in 2020, but Republican Brian Dahle took it 52-48 two years later against Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom. Despite those 2022 headwinds, though, Harder won his most recent term 55-45 against San Joaquin County Supervisor Tom Patti. He's also currently taking 53% of the vote in this year's primary with an estimated 71% reporting while Lincoln is at 28%. ● CA-20: The Associated Press projects that Tulare County Sheriff Mike Boudreaux has claimed the second spot in what will be an all-Republican general election to replace former Rep. Kevin McCarthy in this conservative Central Valley seat. With 92% of the estimated vote tabulated as of Thursday morning, Assemblyman Vince Fong is in first with 41% as Boudreaux leads Democrat Marisa Wood 25-21 for second. Both McCarthy and Donald Trump endorsed Fong ahead of the top-two primary. Note that the first round of the special election for the remaining months of McCarthy's term will take place on Tuesday. If no one wins a majority, the two candidates with the most votes will compete in a May 21 general election. ● CA-22: The Associated Press has called a general election rematch between Republican Rep. David Valadao and former Democratic Assemblyman Rudy Salas, which is the matchup that well-funded outside groups from both parties wanted. With an estimated 97% of the vote tabulated for the March 5 top-two primary as of Thursday morning, Valadao is at 33%, while Salas is outpacing wealthy Republican Chris Mathys 31-22. The remaining 14% goes to Democratic state Sen. Melissa Hurtado. Joe Biden carried this seat, which is based in the southern Central Valley and eastern Bakersfield area, by a 55-42 margin in 2020, which makes it one of the bluest seats the GOP holds nationally. Valadao, though, has a long history of running well ahead of the top of his party's ticket, and both parties are anticipating another tough match. Last cycle, the incumbent defeated Salas 52-48 during a tough year for Golden State Democrats. ● CA-31: The Associated Press projects that former Democratic Rep. Gil Cisneros and Republican attorney Daniel Martinez will face off in the general election to succeed retiring Democratic Rep. Grace Napolitano. Joe Biden took this constituency in the eastern San Gabriel Valley 64-33 in 2020, so Cisneros should have no trouble returning to Congress—albeit from a seat that includes virtually none of the competitive constituency he represented from 2019 through 2021. With an estimated 90% of the vote tabulated as of Thursday morning, Cisneros is in first with 23%, while Martinez leads fellow Republican Pedro Casas 19-17 for second. Two Democratic state senators, Susan Rubio and Napolitano's choice, Bob Archuleta, are at 16% and 10%, respectively. Cisneros, who famously won $266 million in a 2010 lottery, used his wealth to far outspend his many foes. He also worked to ensure that he got to face Martinez instead of Rubio by sending out mailers ostensibly attacking the Republican as "too close to Trump," a tactic aimed at helping Martinez consolidate the conservative vote. Rubio tried to counter with text messages elevating Casas, but it wasn't enough. ● CO-05: Donald Trump endorsed state GOP chair Dave Williams on Tuesday evening hours after Speaker Mike Johnson threw his support behind conservative radio host Jeff Crank, who is also competing in the June 25 primary to replace retiring Rep. Doug Lamborn. Trump also blasted another Crank ally in his social media post touting Williams. Without identifying Crank by name, Trump wrote that Williams' "opponent is Endorsed, and works closely with, Americans for Chinese Prosperity, a Charles Koch Disaster." Last month, Crank earned the backing of Americans for Prosperity, a conservative group that unsuccessfully tried to help Nikki Haley wrest the presidential nomination from Trump. ● MI-08: Businessman Matt Collier, a Democrat who rose to prominence almost four decades ago when he was elected mayor of Flint, announced Wednesday that he was joining the August primary to succeed retiring Democratic Rep. Dan Kildee in this swing seat. Collier, who served in the Army Rangers, won the 1987 race to lead Flint at the age of 29, a victory that made him the city's youngest-ever mayor. Collier, though, would lose reelection four years later in a 59-41 rout against fellow Democrat Woodrow Stanley. In 2013, Collier told MLive.com that he was hurt politically by being the face of a project to build a location for Kessel Foods, a company that unions viewed as anti-labor. The same profile also noted that, while crime fell to its lowest rate in a decade during the first half of his term, it rose during his final two years. Collier lived in California and identified as an independent when that story was published and went on to serve in the Department of Veterans Affairs during the Obama administration. The candidate says he's since "founded a company to fill transitional healthcare gaps and treatment" and again lives in Flint. ● NC-06: Donald Trump announced Wednesday that former Rep. Mark Walker would join his campaign, after which Walker confirmed he would drop his bid to return to the House. Walker's departure means that Trump's endorsed candidate, lobbyist Addison McDowell, will win the GOP nomination without having to go through a May 14 runoff. No Democrats are running for this constituency in the central Piedmont region constituency that, under the new Republican gerrymander, favored Trump 58-41. Trump plucked McDowell, a hunting buddy of Donald Trump Jr., out of obscurity in December when he endorsed his campaign hours before McDowell even announced his own bid. According to journalist Bryan Anderson, the GOP's master had planned to support a different candidate, former college football player Bo Hines, until the younger Trump arranged a meeting between his father and McDowell. McDowell went on to air ads telling the audience that he was Trump's pick and how his brother's death from a fentanyl overdose is why he wants more border security. He also generated attention with one spot in which he claimed that "D.C. libs" are going after nicotine pouch Zyn. "[I]f you care about your freedoms, grab a pouch and a pitchfork and join our campaign to fight back," he declared. That messaging made up much of McDowell's effort, as Anderson writes that "[f]or weeks, McDowell’s campaign website was a mere static page with no policy positions or even a biography." McDowell went on to win a plurality on March 5 with 26% of the vote, while Walker outpaced 2022 nominee Christian Castelli 24-21 for the second spot in a runoff that will no longer happen. (A second round of voting is only required if no one takes more than 30% and if the runner-up officially requests one.) Instead, Anderson notes that the only congressional runoff that will take place in May will be the Republican contrast for the 13th District between wealthy attorney Kelly Daughtry and former federal prosecutor Brad Knott. Republicans will also decide their nominees that day for lieutenant governor and state auditor. ● ND-AL: The newest Republican to announce a campaign for North Dakota's open House seat is former State Department project manager Alex Balazs, who says he served in the Air Force, Navy, and Army during his 25 years in the military. Balazs tells the North Dakota Monitory that, while he'll try to win the GOP's endorsement at the party's April 5-6 convention, he'll continue to the June 11 primary even if he's passed over. Public Service Commissioner Julie Fedorchak is the only other declared candidate who is taking part in the convention, though she says she'll also run in the primary no matter what. Former state Sen. Tom Campbell, by contrast, is skipping the gathering. The fourth announced Republican, former state Rep. Rick Becker, is barred from seeking the party endorsement because he ran against GOP Sen. John Hoeven as an independent in 2022. This quartet is hoping to replace GOP Rep. Kelly Armstrong, who is running for governor. ● OH-06: State Rep. Reggie Stoltzfus is airing a transphobic commercial ahead of Tuesday's Republican primary that claims state Sen. Michael Rulli backed legislation "allowing men to use women's bathrooms." Inside Elections' Jacob Rubashkin predicted this line of attack back in January when he described Rulli as someone who has "carved out a more moderate stance on gay rights issues," noting that Rulli joined with the only gay member of the Senate to cosponsor an anti-discrimination bill and has spoken out "about making the GOP and Ohio more inclusive." That stance puts Rulli out of step with his party in a cycle in which, as Cleveland.com recently detailed, Republicans across the state are relying on anti-LGBTQ+ messaging to help them win primaries. Rulli and Stoltzfus are competing Tuesday in both the regular and special election primaries to replace Bill Johnson, a fellow Republican who left the House to lead Youngstown State University, in this dark red eastern Ohio district. Secretaries of State ● OR-SoS, OR-05: Candidate filing closed Tuesday for Oregon's May 21 primary, and the state has a list of candidates available here. Perhaps the most notable last-minute development came in the race for secretary of state when Republican state Sen. Dennis Linthicum launched a bid to replace the outgoing Democratic incumbent, LaVonne Griffin-Valade. Linthicum is one of the six Republican members of the upper chamber who were prohibited from seeking reelection this year because of a 2022 measure aimed at punishing legislators who take part in quorum-busting boycotts. Linthicum will likely face either state Treasurer Tobias Read or state Sen. James Manning, who are the main Democrats competing in their five-person primary to be the state's chief elections official, who is also first in line to succeed the governor in case of a vacancy. Democratic Gov. Tina Kotek (who defeated Read in the 2022 gubernatorial primary) appointed Griffin-Valade in June a month after Democrat Shemia Fagan resigned amid a scandal, but the new secretary of state opted against seeking a full term. By contrast, there were no surprises in any of Oregon's congressional races. One small mystery, though, was settled Tuesday when tech businessman Matthew Davie did not file to challenge GOP Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer in the 5th District despite setting up a fundraising committee earlier in the year. The main Democratic candidates are 2022 nominee Jamie McLeod-Skinner and state Rep. Janelle Bynum. Ballot Measures ● NV Ballot: Fair Maps Nevada has filed an appeal with the state Supreme Court a month after a lower court ruled that two proposed constitutional amendments to establish a bipartisan redistricting commission cannot appear on the ballot because they would fail to raise the needed revenue. ● OR Ballot: Redistricting reformers announced Tuesday that they were giving up on their attempt to place a measure to establish a legislative redistricting commission on the 2024 ballot and would instead try to put it before voters in 2028. Obituaries ● Terry Everett: Former Rep. Terry Everett, an Alabama Republican who represented the southeastern part of the state from 1993 until 2009, died Tuesday at the age of 87. Everett won the 2nd Congressional District in 1992 by defeating Democratic state Treasurer George Wallace Jr., the son and namesake of the former segregationist governor, in a tight 49-48 general election. (The younger Wallace later became a Republican.) Local Republicans never had to worry about a competitive general election in the 2nd District again until Everett retired ahead of the 2008 cycle. Democrats temporarily flipped his conservative seat that year when Montgomery Mayor Bobby Bright prevailed, but Republican Martha Roby took it back during the following cycle's red wave. Democrats are poised to finally win and likely keep the 2nd District this year, though, because of the state's new court-ordered map. Grab Bag ● Where Are They Now?: The U.S. Senate has confirmed former New York Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney to serve as ambassador to the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. Maloney, a Democrat who narrowly lost reelection last cycle to Republican Mike Lawler, was nominated in May to replace Jack Markell after President Joe Biden tapped the former Delaware governor to become ambassador to Italy.

CDC Relaxes COVID Guidelines; Will Schools, Day Cares Follow Suit? Four years after the COVID-19 pandemic closed schools and upended child care, the CDC says parents can start treating the virus like other respiratory illnesses. Gone are mandated isolation periods and masking. But will schools and child care centers agree? In case you’ve lost track: Before Friday, all Americans, including school children, were supposed to stay home for at least five days if they had COVID-19 and then mask for a set period of time, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now, with COVID deaths and hospitalizations dropping, the CDC says children can go back to school when their overall symptoms improve and they’re fever-free for 24 hours without taking medication. Students are “encouraged” to wear a mask when they return. Still, the change may not affect how individual schools urge parents to react when their children fall sick. Schools and child care providers have a mixed record on following CDC recommendations and often look to local authorities for the ultimate word. And sometimes other goals, such as reducing absences, can influence a state or district’s decisions. The result can be a confusing array of policies among states and districts, not to mention workplaces — confounding parents whose lives have long been upended by the virus. “This is so confusing,” said Gloria Cunningham, a single mom in the Boston area. “I just don’t know what I should think of COVID now. Is it still a monster?” Cunningham, who manages a local store for a national restaurant chain, said her company requires her to take off 10 days if she gets COVID-19. And the school system where her son is in second grade has still been sending home COVID test kits for kids to use before returning to school after long breaks. “I feel like we should just do away with anything that treats COVID differently or keep all of the precautions,” she said. The public education system has long held varying policies on COVID. During the 2021-22 school year, 18 states followed CDC recommendations for mask-wearing in class. When the CDC lifted its masking guidelines in February 2022, states such as Massachusetts followed suit, but California kept the mask requirement for schools. And in the child care world, some providers have long used more stringent testing and isolation protocols than the CDC has recommended. Reasons have ranged from trying to prevent outbreaks to keeping staff healthy — both for their personal safety and to keep the day care open. Some states moved to more lenient guidelines ahead of the CDC. California and Oregon recently rescinded COVID-19 isolation requirements, and many districts followed their advice. In an attempt to minimize school absences and address an epidemic of chronic absenteeism, California has encouraged kids to come to school when mildly sick and said that students who test positive for coronavirus but are asymptomatic can attend school. Los Angeles and San Diego’s school systems, among others, have adopted that policy. But the majority of big-city districts around the country still have asked parents to isolate children for at least five days before returning to school. Some, including Boston and Atlanta, have required students to mask for another five days and report positive COVID-19 test results to the school. Some school leaders suggest the CDC’s previous five-day isolation requirement was already only loosely followed. Official policy in Burlington, Massachusetts, has been to have students stay home for five days if they test positive. But Superintendent Eric Conti said the real policy, in effect, is: “It’s a virus. Deal with it.” That’s because COVID is managed at home, using the honor system. “Without school-based testing, no one can enforce a five-day COVID policy,” he said via text message. Ridley School District in the Philadelphia suburbs was already using a policy similar to the new CDC guidelines, said Superintendent Lee Ann Wentzel. Students who test positive for COVID must be fever-free without medication for at least 24 hours before returning to school. When they come back, they must mask for five days. Wentzel said the district is now considering dropping the masking requirement because of the new CDC guidance. A school or day care’s specific guidelines are consequential for working parents who must miss work if their child can’t go to school or child care. In October 2023, during simultaneous surges of COVID, respiratory syncytial virus and influenza, 104,000 adults reported missing work because of child care issues, the highest number in at least a decade. That number has fallen: Last month, child care problems meant 41,000 adults missed work, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Melissa Colagrosso’s child care center in West Virginia dropped special guidelines for COVID about a year ago, she said. Now, they’re the same as other illnesses: A child must be free of severe symptoms such as fever for at least 24 hours before returning to the center. “We certainly are treating COVID just like we would treat flu or hand, foot and mouth” disease, said Colagrosso, CEO of A Place To Grow Children’s Center in Oak Hill. As for kids without symptoms who test positive for COVID? Most parents have stopped testing kids unless they have symptoms, Colagrasso said, so it’s a quandary she has not encountered. Still, some parents worry the relaxed rules put their communities at greater risk. Evelyn Alemán leads a group of Latino and Indigenous immigrant parents in Los Angeles County. The parents she represents, many of whom suffer from chronic illnesses and lack of access to health care, panicked when California did away with isolation requirements in January. “I don’t think they’re considering what the impact will be for our families,” she said of California officials. “It feels like they don’t care — that we’re almost expendable.” Other impacts of the pandemic linger, too, even as restrictions are lifted. In Ridley, the Philadelphia-area district, more students are reclusive and struggle to interact in-person with peers, said Wentzel, the superintendent. Interest in school dances has plummeted. “Emotionally,” Wentzel said, “they’re having trouble.”

Excluding sales from gas stations and auto dealers, sales were up 0.3%. Business at general merchandise stores rose 0.4%, while electronics and appliance stores had a solid 1.5% increase. Restaurants posted a 0.4% increase. Furniture and home furnishings stores saw a 1.1% decline. Online sales were down 0.1%. Household spending is being fueled by a strong jobs market and rising wages. But spending has become choppy in the face of rising credit costs and higher prices. America's employers continued to hire in February, adding a surprising 275,000 jobs, underscoring the U.S. economy's resilience despite efforts of the U.S. Federal Reserve to knock down inflation by slowing spending. While costs for many goods appear to have plateaued, consumer prices in the United States picked up last month, showing how a vibrant economic activity and strong consumer spending has made fighting inflation a complicated task for the Fed, and a potential headache for President Joe Biden's bid for re-election. The most recent quarterly financial reports from big retailers like Walmart,Target and Macy's show that their customers are looking for deals and in many cases sticking to the necessities when they shop. “They continue to shop but they are more constrained, ” Target's CEO Brian Cornell told The Associated Press in an interview last week. “People are using credit cards to get through the month. Rent costs across the country are up, and gas has been volatile.” Chris Riccobono, founder of New York clothing chain Untuckit. said that customers are waiting for sales. That is a break from the pandemic and he said this year he wants to cut back on the company's reliance on discounts to drive sales. “I want to start to train our customers to get back into the pre-COVID days,” he said. That was when the company had sales three times a year. The government’s monthly retail sales report offers only a partial look at consumer spending; it doesn’t include many services, including travel and hotel lodges. It's also not adjusted for inflation.

Tennessee Congressman’s Car Collection Is ‘Toast’ After House Fire VROOM GLOOM A fire broke out at the Memphis home of Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) on Wednesday afternoon, damaging at least three cars in his garage, according to local authorities. A spokesperson for the Memphis Fire Department said they’d received a call about a fire in Cohen’s garage around 3:05 p.m. No injuries were reported, and Cohen was not at home at the time of the fire, according to the department. Cohen learned of the fire only when his flight from Washington, D.C. landed in Tennessee, he later told reporters outside his home, according to The Commercial Appeal. “Not a good way to come home,” he told a reporter for local station WREG. “Almost worth staying up there, being with some of those crazy Republicans.” Cohen explained the three cars in his garage had been a 2010 Audi, a 1976 Peugeot, and a 1986 Alfa Romeo. “They’re toast,” Cohen said, adding that he was glad the fire hadn’t spread further. The cause of the blaze was not immediately clear, but the Democratic representative said he believed it was an accidental electrical fire.

Interview: China on track to achieve objectives, says U.S. scholar CHICAGO, March 14 (Xinhua) -- With the right fundamentals, including visionary leadership, large capital resources, high-quality human capital, and a disciplined labor force, "China is on track to achieve its intermediate and long-term objectives," a U.S. scholar has said. While noting that "the Chinese economy is facing headwinds," Khairy Tourk, professor of economics at the Stuart School of Business of the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, made a distinction between cyclical issues and structural ones. Issues related to the property market, chip, and disruptions in the consumers and investment markets caused by COVID-19 are cyclical issues, and "are relatively easy to take care (of)," Tourk told Xinhua in a recent interview. "The Chinese government has taken positive steps to find solutions to these cyclical issues." "It'll take a little time for them to adjust, but we already see good signs," said Tourk, referring to China's economic growth of 5.2 percent and consumption growth of 9 percent in 2023. "This is a very healthy growth. We also see record holiday travel. We see more people going to the movies. These are all encouraging signs," he added. Structurally, the Chinese economy is moving from high-quantity growth to high-quality growth, with new drivers of growth in such fields as green technology, solar panels, and electric vehicles to achieve carbon neutrality, he said. Tourk divided foreign investment in China into two categories: long-term foreign investment and short-term or portfolio foreign investment motivated by short-term considerations. As the interest rate in the United States is higher than in China, it is natural for these portfolio investors to come to invest in the United States. Tourk holds that most foreign companies in China, including American ones, are optimistic about the Chinese economy and are thinking of how to expand in the large Chinese market. De-risking is a term that has more geopolitical elements than economic ones, and is based on flawed assumptions, Tourk said. Decoupling from China is going to be very disruptive to the global economy, Tourk said. It would result in producing goods at a very high cost, triggering global inflation. It will also sow discord in the global order, creating unnecessary tension between nations. "No country could match China in terms of efficiency and low-cost production," he said. "No company can afford to survive if it does not sell in China." Tourk speaks highly of the Global Development Initiative, the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership that have taken shape in recent years. Speaking highly of the BRI as the world's most transformative development project in the 21st Century, Tourk said that it may change current global political and economic patterns. The present global order ignores the wishes of developing nations and is therefore failing, he said, noting that the BRI is creating a parallel system that "helps the majority of humankind to participate in the new global order as equal partners." As more nations participate in the new supply chains, there will be more cooperation, more interactions, and more people-to-people exchanges, he said, expressing hopes that as the BRI grows, "there will be more room for peace and prosperity everywhere."

Another penned: 'I think you mean flying home with a huge carbon footprint and a guilty conscience - what a way to celebrate an engagement.' Someone else said: 'Happy for you but private jet?! Is that really necessary? The world is burning :(.' Another pointed out: 'I love u but its sad how our planet is dying and rich people are flying to be somewhere for 2 days. While others are paying their a**es of for gas and food cos our planet is dying.'

Manchester City hit by fresh Kevin De Bruyne injury blow as crucial fixtures loom De Bruyne has been left out of Belgium’s squad for upcoming friendlies against the Republic of Ireland and England because of a groin injury Kevin De Bruyne has provided Manchester City with a fresh injury concern ahead of their crucial Premier League clash with Arsenal after Belgium decided it was too risky to call up their captain. Belgium manager Domenico Tedesco omitted the midfielder from his squad for the March friendlies against the Republic of Ireland and England because of a groin problem. De Bruyne, who was out for five months after having hamstring surgery in August, has been handled carefully by Pep Guardiola, starting only five of City’s last 10 matches in all competitions. And Tedesco said: “He’s been playing with a minor groin issue during the last games. Yesterday I spoke to the doctor and Kevin and we decided that the risk is too big. It’s better to give him time to recover well at City and then have him ready for the Euros.” City host Newcastle in the FA Cup on Saturday, while they face Arsenal on 31 March in a game that could go a long way to deciding the title. They are set to be without goalkeeper Ederson, who was injured in Sunday’s 1-1 with Liverpool. De Bruyne, who has 11 assists in 12 outings for City since returning to the side in January, has only completed 90 minutes five times in the last 10 months. He has been stuck on 99 caps for Belgium for almost a year.

Hiring drive, private lab help to reduce toxicology backlog in Gauteng With the oldest outstanding toxicology tests stretching back 17 years, the Gauteng health department is ramping up its plan to resolve “cold cases”. The province has more than 17,000 toxicology cases and more than 7,000 histology cases, with some dating to 2007. “We are aware of the impact the backlogs have on the families of the deceased who are seeking closure and facing material trauma due to long delays in finalising estates. We also understand insurance claims are being affected. We are fast-tracking interventions to resolve this issue,” acting CEO of the Gauteng forensic pathology service Thembalethu Mpahlaza said. Toxicology reports give an indication of the type and approximate amount of legal and illegal drugs in the deceased’s body by measuring how much of the substances is in their blood, urine or other bodily fluids. Histopathology focuses on the diagnosis and study of diseases of tissues and involves examining tissues and/or cells under a microscope. The health department, within which the pathology service operates, said the backlogs can be attributed to a combination of factors, including: - the emergence of foreign drugs that are difficult to trace and an increase in cases involving sudden deaths; - suspicion of poisoning among family members in cases of unexpected death; - the absence of medical histories for certain deceased individuals (this leads to prolonged multiple tests on the body); and - limited availability of private laboratories willing to conduct state toxicology tests and appear as expert witnesses in court. A recruitment drive has been launched to hire specialist toxicologists to boost capacity of the team and enhance the ability to process cases more expeditiously. The department is also seeking external private partners to augment capacity to process cases. A specialist skills training facility has opened in Ga-Rankuwa and in the first quarter of the new financial year the long-awaited in-house toxicology laboratory at Helen Joseph Hospital will open its doors. “This state-of-the art facility will be a major game changer in dealing with the historic backlogs,” the department said.

British tourists warned of Brexit travel chaos as major EU project running out of time Travel operators are concerned that widespread chaos will ensue on the Eurostar and at the Port of Dover later this year, thanks to a major European Union project which may not be completed on time. Brits have been warned they could face more Brexit travel chaos later this year, as the European Union is running out of time to avoid imminent disruption to transport links accross the English Channel. EU bosses havereportedly come up with a magic solution to reduce chaos caused by the new Entry/Exit system (EES) within the Schengen zone - expected to launch this autumn in the form of an app. The new technology would allow non-EU citizens to provide fingerprints and facial scans in order to enter the block, to reduce queues in places like the port of Dover. Longer queues for Brits arriving at airports in the EU is anticipated, but a system of "juxtaposed controls" in the UK will see passengers cross the border into the European Union when they board the Eurostar in London, or a ferry on the south coast of England. That means queueing and disruption will take place on British soil. Freight operators, moreover, say longer queues at Dover will also hold up lorries crossing the short strait, disrupting the U.K. supply chain. Nichola Mallon of trade body Logistics U.K. told POLITICO that EES will cause huge delays for UK and EU freight, adding that it will cause "significant negative consequences for logistics operators, supply chains and UK and EU economies". READ MORE: European country on brink of becoming first to join EU since Brexit [LATEST] Despite the app expecting to ease delays at the busy UK port, it is unlikely that it will be readily available for British tourists to use when the EES comes into effect. Jesper Christensen, director of channel operations at shipping company DFDS, warned that once the EU Commission makes the app available to Schengen countries, it will be up to them it could still take "some time" after that for each member state to make sure it is fully operational. For Brits travelling to France via Dover, this means that tourists might not be able to use the new system if France has not made the system fully operational. Experts predict that it might not be ready until the summer of 2025. Director of port operations at P&O ferries Jack Steer told the European Scrutiny Committee last week: “I think we need more time … not just Dover Harbour Board but us as operators, Kent, the wider community … I would include the EU and the French government. “I think we all need to be talking about whether October is the right time for us to go live with a product that is still evolving.” Anitta Hipper, the Commission's home affairs spokesperson, added: “The mobile app for pre-registration of third country nationals’ data is currently under development. The app will be made available for the Schengen countries as from the Entry/Exit System start of operations.” In the case of the Eurostar, company bosses say the are buying triple the amount of EES kiosks in a bid to reduce expected queues, whil an old ticket office at London St Pancras is also being converted to make more space. But many operators believe that the EES should not yet be implemented until the app is ready for everyone.

Health risks of concussions in spotlight as New Zealand rugby player diagnosed with CTE Former Auckland Blues halfback Billy Guyton has become New Zealand's first professional rugby player to be diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), Radio New Zealand reported on Thursday. Guyton, who also played for the Wellington Hurricanes and Canterbury Crusaders in Super Rugby, died suddenly last year at the age of 33. CTE, a degenerative brain disease linked to repeated head impacts in contact sport, can only be diagnosed when the brain is examined after death. Radio New Zealand (RNZ) said Guyton's family had received the CTE diagnosis this week after testing by Auckland's Neurological Foundation Human Brain Bank. "It was noted as CTE by the New Zealand-based pathologist," the Brain Bank's co-director, Prof Maurice Curtis, told RNZ. "It was sent to an Australian pathologist for a second opinion." The Brain Bank was unable to provide immediate comment when contacted by Reuters on Thursday. The sport's national governing body, New Zealand Rugby, said it shared the Guyton family's concern at his diagnosis. "NZR is concerned about the possibility that repeated head impacts during participation in rugby may contribute to neurodegenerative diseases in later life," it said in a statement. Guyton retired from rugby at the age of 28 in 2018 after suffering repeated episodes of concussion from head knocks. He told a New Zealand media outlet that everyday activities would trigger concussion symptoms. “Watching TV would bring on headaches, doing too many tasks, loud noises, some days I would need noise-cancelling headphones or I would feel nauseous and have blurry or double vision, it was not very fun," he told the Nelson Weekly at the time of his retirement. Guyton's father told RNZ his son had suffered before his death. "The poor guy would spend hours in a small, dark cupboard because he couldn't handle being in the light," John Guyton said. "Some mornings he'd just sit in the bottom of his shower tray crying, trying to muster up the energy to get moving." Just under 300 former rugby players are suing World Rugby, England's Rugby Football Union and the Welsh Rugby Union over neurological injuries, alleging the bodies failed to protect the health and safety of players. The governing bodies say player welfare is the sport's number one priority and they will be guided by the latest science. Rugby authorities have introduced smart mouthguard technology for head impact assessments and started trials to lower tackle height in community rugby as part of efforts to reduce the risk of head injuries in the sport.

The government on Thursday withdrew a notification appointing a former federal secretary as chairman of the Indus River System Authority (Irsa) after strong opposition from the PPP, a provincial lawmaker said. According to a picture of the notification shared by Sindh MPA Maleeha Manzoor on X, the orders for the Irsa chairman’s appointment were to be “treated as withdrawn”. A day earlier, the premier had appointed Zafar Mahmood — a retired BS-22 federal government officer — as the Irsa chairman, causing much uproar in yesterday’s National Assembly session. PPP MNA Syed Naveed Qamar had declared the PM’s act of appointing the Irsa chairman “very serious, illegal and unconstitutional”, urging the government to immediately withdraw the appointment notification. The Awami Tehreek, Grand Democratic Alliance, Sindh Taraqqi-pasand Party and Jeay Sindh Mahaz-Riaz also strongly opposed the appointment, terming it unconstitutional, illegal and immoral. Earlier today, in a telephonic conversation, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif assured Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah of the notification’s withdrawal, according to Sindh CM spokesperson Rasheed Channa. According to Sindh Irrigation Minister Jam Khan Shoro, CM Shah made it a point to note that Irsa’s chairman will be appointed from a rotation of members of the provincial cabinets, as per the Council of Common Interests (CCI). He further noted that the PM had “accepted the stance” of the Sindh CM and the provincial irrigation department. Speaking to reporters in Karachi, CM Shah said, “The whole purpose of Irsa was that there would be no influence of the Federation in this regard.” He referenced an ordinance that had been introduced during the caretaker government’s tenure, in which it was amended that a representative of the Federation will be a member of Irsa. The Sindh CM highlighted that the provincial cabinet had strictly opposed this amendment. Controversial Irsa Amendment Ordinance 2024 Mahmood’s induction as Irsa chairman had been made under the controversial Irsa Amendment Ordinance 2024 that was returned with reservations by then-president Arif Alvi to then-caretaker PM Anwaarul Haq Kakar. An official from the Ministry of Water Resources said the president had returned the draft ordinance, but it was only known to the presidency and the PM’s office whether the president had rejected the ordinance or suggested a revisit. “What we know for sure is that the Irsa Amendment Ordinance 2024 has now been printed [in the gazette of Pakistan] and will be placed before parliament to become a permanent act, because the ordinance obviously has a limited shelf life,” he explained. Sindh Chamber of Agriculture rejects amendment to Irsa Act On Tuesday, the Sindh Chamber of Agriculture (SCA) had rejected the proposed amendment to the Irsa Act through an ordinance and urged the president and newly-installed federal government to take notice of caretaker government’s “overstepping of its authority in flagrant violation of relevant decision of the CCI”. A meeting of the chamber termed the ordinance regarding amendment to the Irsa Act “unconstitutional and illegal” and criticised the caretakers’ move as “unethical”. It said that the caretaker government clearly overstepped its authority, and added that the SCA, therefore, rejected it. Discussing the ordinance, the meeting participants noted that under the proposed amendment, the authority to appoint Irsa chairman was delegated to prime minister whereas under the Act in effect post, the chairman’s post was to be rotated among provinces. The meeting held that a caretaker government did not have the authority to propose amendment to any Act through an ordinance. “An Act can be amended by an elected parliament, government and the CCI,” it asserted, and explained that such a draft had to be submitted before the CCI and chief ministers, being members of CCI, should give their input on it and then it had to be tabled, if unanimously agreed by CCI, in parliament through a resolution calling for the amendment to the Act.

Maks is an independent consultant specializing in operational excellence for companies in the scaling phase. Whether you're seizing technological advantages, innovating business models or capturing a significant market share, scaling a company is a testament to your vision and ambition. However, the journey toward scaling requires a strategic shift in mindset and a meticulous approach to decision-making. I've worked with several companies that underwent significant international scaling efforts throughout my career, and through this experience, I've learned valuable lessons on how companies can embark on the scaling process successfully. Understanding The Metrics Of Growth When considering expansion, it's imperative to assess your company's resources and performance indicators. Factors such as liquidity, profitability ratios (e.g., return on assets and compound annual growth rate) and net profit margin all play pivotal roles in determining scalability. A company with robust financial metrics is better positioned to withstand market fluctuations and capitalize on growth opportunities. Moreover, expanding into new markets demands thorough market research and analysis. Evaluate jurisdictional regulations, tax conditions, competitive landscapes and consumer behavior patterns. Anticipating the market share potential and aligning it with financial projections is crucial for informed decision-making. Adapting Leadership And Management Expanding into new territories requires a paradigm shift in leadership. As a leader, you must embrace the role of newcomers and be ready to learn and adapt to unfamiliar environments. You must understand the dynamics of the market you want to enter, as well as consumer preferences. Keep in mind that effective communication strategies are paramount as well. Building a stellar team is instrumental in navigating expansion challenges. Recruiting top talents who resonate with your company's values and vision significantly enhances your chances of success. Transparent communication with your management team is also key. This fosters a culture of trust and collaboration, which is essential for driving growth initiatives forward. Mitigating Risks And Compliance Navigating regulatory frameworks and compliance standards is essential to avoid penalties and legal complications. Analyze your organizational structure and tax optimization strategies; this is especially crucial when venturing into international markets. Non-compliance can lead to substantial fines and jeopardize the viability of expansion plans. Furthermore, establishing a robust business presence in new markets requires careful planning and adherence to local regulations. Relying on individual contractors without proper legal entities can pose significant risks, including tax liabilities and operational constraints. How To Develop The Mindset For Scaling And Transformation 1. Realize and accept the fact that in a new market, you as a manager are a newcomer. This is because you are starting to work in a different business culture with a different mentality. It is important to be honest with yourself and open to change. 2. Recognize the need to adapt and learn (in some aspects, practically from scratch). At the same time, it is important to preserve the unique features that make your product or service interesting. 3. Conduct "independent work." Gather information about the market, mentality and industry. Choose a few successful entrepreneurs in the local market as examples, and learn from open sources on how they work with teams, communicate with partners and present themselves in public. 4. Join a business club or local community where top managers who have been working in the market for a long time gather and can share their experiences. Attend club meetings, discuss your requests, ask for advice and listen to colleagues' feedback. 5. Work with your team. Analyze how ready the team is to give honest feedback. You can conduct an anonymous survey or have an open conversation where everyone can express what is currently going well, what is going poorly and what needs to be changed. 6. Develop your own ability to receive and work with criticism. You need to learn to weigh each critical comment and convert it into increased work efficiency. To do this, you can collaborate with a coach or find a convenient way for yourself to process criticism independently. In conclusion, scaling your businesses is not merely about expanding operations; it's a transformative journey that demands strategic foresight, adaptability and a commitment to excellence. You could say that scaling requires unleashing your maximum potential. By leveraging financial insights, nurturing talent and embracing regulatory compliance, you can navigate the complexities of expansion and help your company emerge as a leader in its respective industry. Embark on this journey with confidence, knowing that every challenge is an opportunity for growth and innovation.

THE DEVELOPERS who worked on Europe's biggest indoor market regeneration project, have high hopes for the Tiny Rebel site, which is set to close down at the end of March. LoftCo, the property developer who played a role in the success of the Newport Market project, said they expect big things from the Tiny Rebel site, although no plans have been finalised. A spokesperson for LoftCo said: "Following Tiny Rebel's recent announcement of its departure, we acknowledge the significant role Tiny Rebel has played in the community and express our appreciation for their contributions to Newport Market. "We are currently evaluating various exciting options and considering potential opportunities for the premises once Tiny Rebel concludes its operations at the end of March." LoftCo also added: "While specific plans have not yet been finalised, LoftCo remains committed to creating vibrant and dynamic spaces within the Newport community. We have a promising shortlist for the coveted venue, and our priority is to ensure it's the perfect fit for the market." The company has said, with the backing of Newport City Council, that "we are proud to have played a part in the recent surge in activity within the hospitality sector. "Over the last three months, Newport Market has experienced its busiest period in terms of hospitality since its inception. The number of events hosted has tripled, and we are witnessing increased footfall on a weekly basis." LoftCo is calling for "interested parties, potential tenants and collaborators" to reach out if they want to discuss the site's future via their email: enquiries@newport-market.co.uk. A spokesperson for Tiny Rebel listed "decreasing footfall and rising operating costs" as reasons for the looming closure, set to take place on Sunday, March 31, 2024.

CDC Relaxes COVID Guidelines; Will Schools, Day Cares Follow Suit? Four years after the COVID-19 pandemic closed schools and upended child care, the CDC says parents can start treating the virus like other respiratory illnesses. Gone are mandated isolation periods and masking. But will schools and child care centers agree? In case you’ve lost track: Before Friday, all Americans, including school children, were supposed to stay home for at least five days if they had COVID-19 and then mask for a set period of time, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now, with COVID deaths and hospitalizations dropping, the CDC says children can go back to school when their overall symptoms improve and they’re fever-free for 24 hours without taking medication. Students are “encouraged” to wear a mask when they return. Still, the change may not affect how individual schools urge parents to react when their children fall sick. Schools and child care providers have a mixed record on following CDC recommendations and often look to local authorities for the ultimate word. And sometimes other goals, such as reducing absences, can influence a state or district’s decisions. The result can be a confusing array of policies among states and districts, not to mention workplaces — confounding parents whose lives have long been upended by the virus. “This is so confusing,” said Gloria Cunningham, a single mom in the Boston area. “I just don’t know what I should think of COVID now. Is it still a monster?” Cunningham, who manages a local store for a national restaurant chain, said her company requires her to take off 10 days if she gets COVID-19. And the school system where her son is in second grade has still been sending home COVID test kits for kids to use before returning to school after long breaks. “I feel like we should just do away with anything that treats COVID differently or keep all of the precautions,” she said. The public education system has long held varying policies on COVID. During the 2021-22 school year, 18 states followed CDC recommendations for mask-wearing in class. When the CDC lifted its masking guidelines in February 2022, states such as Massachusetts followed suit, but California kept the mask requirement for schools. And in the child care world, some providers have long used more stringent testing and isolation protocols than the CDC has recommended. Reasons have ranged from trying to prevent outbreaks to keeping staff healthy — both for their personal safety and to keep the day care open. Some states moved to more lenient guidelines ahead of the CDC. California and Oregon recently rescinded COVID-19 isolation requirements, and many districts followed their advice. In an attempt to minimize school absences and address an epidemic of chronic absenteeism, California has encouraged kids to come to school when mildly sick and said that students who test positive for coronavirus but are asymptomatic can attend school. Los Angeles and San Diego’s school systems, among others, have adopted that policy. But the majority of big-city districts around the country still have asked parents to isolate children for at least five days before returning to school. Some, including Boston and Atlanta, have required students to mask for another five days and report positive COVID-19 test results to the school. Some school leaders suggest the CDC’s previous five-day isolation requirement was already only loosely followed. Official policy in Burlington, Massachusetts, has been to have students stay home for five days if they test positive. But Superintendent Eric Conti said the real policy, in effect, is: “It’s a virus. Deal with it.” That’s because COVID is managed at home, using the honor system. “Without school-based testing, no one can enforce a five-day COVID policy,” he said via text message. Ridley School District in the Philadelphia suburbs was already using a policy similar to the new CDC guidelines, said Superintendent Lee Ann Wentzel. Students who test positive for COVID must be fever-free without medication for at least 24 hours before returning to school. When they come back, they must mask for five days. Wentzel said the district is now considering dropping the masking requirement because of the new CDC guidance. A school or day care’s specific guidelines are consequential for working parents who must miss work if their child can’t go to school or child care. In October 2023, during simultaneous surges of COVID, respiratory syncytial virus and influenza, 104,000 adults reported missing work because of child care issues, the highest number in at least a decade. That number has fallen: Last month, child care problems meant 41,000 adults missed work, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Melissa Colagrosso’s child care center in West Virginia dropped special guidelines for COVID about a year ago, she said. Now, they’re the same as other illnesses: A child must be free of severe symptoms such as fever for at least 24 hours before returning to the center. “We certainly are treating COVID just like we would treat flu or hand, foot and mouth” disease, said Colagrosso, CEO of A Place To Grow Children’s Center in Oak Hill. As for kids without symptoms who test positive for COVID? Most parents have stopped testing kids unless they have symptoms, Colagrasso said, so it’s a quandary she has not encountered. Still, some parents worry the relaxed rules put their communities at greater risk. Evelyn Alemán leads a group of Latino and Indigenous immigrant parents in Los Angeles County. The parents she represents, many of whom suffer from chronic illnesses and lack of access to health care, panicked when California did away with isolation requirements in January. “I don’t think they’re considering what the impact will be for our families,” she said of California officials. “It feels like they don’t care — that we’re almost expendable.” Other impacts of the pandemic linger, too, even as restrictions are lifted. In Ridley, the Philadelphia-area district, more students are reclusive and struggle to interact in-person with peers, said Wentzel, the superintendent. Interest in school dances has plummeted. “Emotionally,” Wentzel said, “they’re having trouble.”

Economists are expecting that retail sales bounced back in February following January's post-holiday slowdown in which sales declined 0.8% from the previous month. While some of that decline was attributed to weather, many economists suggested that consumers are starting to feel the pressure of higher interest rates and are tightening up their spending. Analysts forecast that retail sales grew 0.7% last month. Retail sales are closely watched by economists because consumer spending makes up more than two-thirds of U.S. economic activity. The Federal Reserve, which isn't expected to start drawing down its benchmark interest rate until at least June, also watches the report closely. In its fight against inflation, the U.S. central bank has raised its benchmark borrowing rate to highest level in more than two decades. Fed officials will also have their eyes on the latest wholesale prices report coming later Thursday. Oil prices have been on a general upswing so far this year, which has helped keep inflation a bit higher than economists expected. That higher inflation has in turn dashed Wall Street's hopes that the Federal Reserve could start offering relief at its meeting next week by cutting interest rates. But the expectation is still for the Fed to begin cutting rates in June, because the longer-term trend for inflation seems to remain downward. The Fed’s main interest rate is at its highest level since 2001, and reductions would release pressure on the economy and financial system. Shares of U.S. Steel tumbled 4.7% in premarket as President Joe Biden is expected to formally declare opposition to the planned sale of U.S. Steel to Nippon Steel of Japan. In a statement to be released Thursday obtained in advance by The Associated Press, Biden said: "U.S. Steel has been an iconic American steel company for more than a century, and it is vital for it to remain an American steel company that is domestically owned and operated." Nippon Steel announced in December that it planned to buy the Pittsburgh-based steel producer for $14.1 billion in cash, raising concerns about what the transaction could mean for unionized workers, supply chains and U.S. national security. Shares of Anheuser-Busch InBev slumped 3.6% after Altria said it was selling a portion of its stake in the maker of Budweiser. Altria is offering up 35 million of its 197 million ABI shares. In Europe at midday, France's CAC 40 added 0.8%, Germany's DAX gained 0.4% and Britain's FTSE 100 was virtually unchanged. Japan's Nikkei 225 reversed course from earlier losses and finished at 38,807.38, up 0.3%. Nissan Motor Co. stock jumped 2.2% after an unconfirmed Japanese media report that the automaker behind the Leaf electric car was about to enter an agreement on EVs with domestic rival Honda Motor Co. Honda shares rose 1.1%. Both Nissan and Honda declined comment. Sydney's S&P/ASX 200 slipped 0.2% to 7,713.60. South Korea's Kospi added 0.9% to 2,718.76. Hong Kong's Hang Seng lost 0.7% to 16,961.66, while the Shanghai Composite fell 0.2% to 3,038.23. "In a significant turn of events, there's increasing speculation that the Bank of Japan might consider ending its negative interest rate policy in its upcoming meeting, spurred by substantial wage hikes by major Japanese firms," said Anderson Alves at ActivTrades. The Japanese central bank has set a target of 2% inflation. The Bank of Japan will hold a two-day monetary policy meeting next week. In energy trading, benchmark U.S. crude added 70 cents to $80.42 a barrel. Brent crude, the international standard, rose 60 cents to $84.63 a barrel. In currency trading, the U.S. dollar relatively flat at 147.73 Japanese yen, down a tick from 147.74 yen. The euro cost $1.0940, down from $1.0953. On Wednesday, the S&P 500 edged down 0.2%, a day after setting an all-time high. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.1%, and the Nasdaq composite fell 0.5%. —— Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP

Pricey Tax Lein Threatens Wendy Williams’ NYC Condo: Report UNCLE SAM’S KNOCKING Former talk show host Wendy Williams is facing a steep federal tax lien that could cost her the pricey New York City condo she purchased in 2021, TMZ reported Wednesday. She apparently has an unpaid tax balance that accrued between 2019 and 2021, the tabloid reported, with the lien on her $4.5 million condo being generated earlier this year and placed with the New York City Department of Finance last month for collections. The former Wendy Williams Show host has been facing a number of health struggles in recent months—including alcoholism and a recently announced diagnosis of aphasia and frontotemporal dementia. She was placed under the authority of a legal guardianship in 2022—after the period of time in which she allegedly accrued the unpaid federal tax bill of at least $568,451.57. It’s unclear if Williams’ legal guardian has already dealt with the issue—a representative for Williams’ guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, did not respond to TMZ’s request for comment.

Over £20,000 raised for Northamptonshire Health Charity in homebuilder cycling challenge A charity update from your area WELL DONE: Barratt Northampton celebrating the Spinathon (Image: Steve Baker SGB Photography) Barratt Homes Northampton is celebrating the efforts of its team that took on a cycling challenge to raise money for Northamptonshire Health Charity. Staff members from different departments collectively cycled 1,550 miles across three days, the equivalent of cycling from the developer’s head office in Northampton to Venice. The challenge came about as Barratt Homes wanted to celebrate the NHS’s 75th Anniversary this year, and raise money to say thank you to NHS staff who continue to work tirelessly for the local community. The team managed to raise £10,531, which was matched by The Barratt Foundation, making the grand total £21,062 which has been donated to Northampton Health Charity. Northamptonshire Health Charity supports Northampton General Hospital, Kettering General Hospital, and the Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. The developer’s donation will be split across many wards including Cardiology, Clinical Oncology, Dementia Services and the Children’s Ward. Christina Kelly, charity grants and liaison at Northamptonshire Health Charity, said: “What an outstanding effort and incredible donation. We are most grateful to everyone that took part in the mega spin-a-thon and to those individuals and companies that sponsored the event. “Funds will be spent on helping improve staff health and wellbeing by updating some of the oldest, most tired looking staff rooms that are in desperate need of refurbishment. Transforming these areas into relaxing and welcoming communal spaces will have a truly uplifting and positive impact on staff, helping them to relax and unwind during their breaks, which is so vital when working long shifts in a busy and challenging environment.” The event idea came through Barratt Homes’ senior sales manager, Gemma Ridgway, who said: “We wanted to raise money for our local hospitals, and the NHS 75th Anniversary was the perfect opportunity for this. It was amazing to see how many of the team got involved and we’re pleased to hear that the money is going to make a big difference to the charity.” Simon Francis, managing director at Barratt Homes Northampton, said: “We’re extremely proud of the efforts of our team in their fundraising for Northamptonshire Health Charity, it was a huge challenge for the team to take, and we hope they enjoyed pushing themselves for a good cause. Northamptonshire Health Charity provides vital support for the local hospitals’ patients, families and staff, and we’re delighted to have raised a significant amount to support its work.” Barratt Homes Northampton is continuing its support for the charity by sponsoring the Northampton 10K in May.

Ex-NFL star Christian Wade to replace NFL hopeful Louis Rees-Zammit at Gloucester The 32-year-old Wade will join from French club Racing 92 ahead of next season Gloucester have signed former Wasps and England winger Christian Wade – who quit rugby in 2018 to join the NFL’s International Player Pathway – just weeks after losing ex-Wales star Louis Rees-Zammit to the same programme. The 32-year-old will join from French club Racing 92 ahead of the 2024/25 season and will help fill the void left by Rees-Zammit’s shock move to the US. Wade was drafted to the Buffalo Bills in 2019 but never played a competitive NFL match and returned to rugby in 2022. “I’m excited to be returning to the Premiership next season and for a great club like Gloucester,” Wade said. “After speaking with George (Skivington), I believe in his vision and ambition for the team and I can’t wait to play my part in that. “I have fond memories of playing at Kingsholm in Wasps colours so I’m looking forward to getting out there in Cherry & White next season.” Wade played just one Test for England but was selected for the British and Irish Lions’ 2013 tour of Australia. Head coach Skivington said: “It’s been clear since he returned from America that he has come back in even better shape and still has that sixth sense for the try line that he had before he left. “We’ve got a pretty exciting stock of back three players here, but it’s hugely pleasing to add someone of Christian’s experience to that group.” Join our commenting forum Join thought-provoking conversations, follow other Independent readers and see their replies Subscribe to Independent Premium to bookmark this article Want to bookmark your favourite articles and stories to read or reference later?

Home>> Red Notice fugitive repatriated to China from Indonesia (Xinhua) 14:50, March 14, 2024 BEIJING, March 14 (Xinhua) -- A fugitive surnamed Liu was repatriated to China from Indonesia after 11 years on the run, China's Ministry of Public Security announced Thursday. Liu was suspected of conducting illegal fund-raising by fabricating investment projects and tricking the public into investing from April 2010 to December 2012, with large sums of money involved. Liu fled to Indonesia in early 2013. In March that year, the public security department of Jungar Banner, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region filed a case for investigation into Liu's acts. In November 2014, the Interpol listed Liu as a Red Notice fugitive. Liu was arrested by law-enforcement departments of Indonesia last month.

HUDSON GLOBAL, INC. RECONCILIATION FOR CONSTANT CURRENCY (in thousands) (unaudited) The Company operates on a global basis, with the majority of its revenue generated outside of the United States. Accordingly, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can affect its results of operations. Constant currency information compares financial results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. The company currently defines the term “constant currency” to mean that financial data for a previously reported period are translated into U.S. dollars using the same foreign currency exchange rates that were used to translate financial data for the current period. Changes in revenue, adjusted net revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A"), and other non-operating income (expense), operating income (loss) and EBITDA (loss) include the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Variance analysis usually describes period-to-period variances that are calculated using constant currency as a percentage. The company’s management reviews and analyzes business results in constant currency and believes these results better represent the company’s underlying business trends. The company believes that these calculations are a useful measure, indicating the actual change in operations. There are no significant gains or losses on foreign currency transactions between subsidiaries. Therefore, changes in foreign currency exchange rates generally impact only reported earnings. - Represents Revenue less the Direct contracting costs and reimbursed expenses caption on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. - SG&A is a measure that management uses to evaluate the segments’ expenses and includes salaries and related costs and other selling, general and administrative costs.

IFP grabs three wards from ANC in Newcastle The IFP's winning streak seems to be continuing in KwaZulu-Natal. The party on Thursday snatched three wards from the ANC during by-elections in Amajuba municipality in Newcastle. This latest success marks the IFP's fourth consecutive by-election win in the area this year. In ward 12 the ANC ward councillor who served as deputy mayor of Newcastle in the previous council resigned from the council, necessitating a by-election. The IFP received 61% of the vote, the ANC 24% while Team Sugar and the EFF received 8% and 3% respectively. In ward 19, where another ANC ward councillor resigned, the party lost its majority to the IFP. The IFP received 59% of the vote while the ANC came second with 28% and Team Sugar and the EFF came third with 7% each. In ward 23, where an ANC councillor also resigned, the party received 13% of the vote while the IFP won the ward with 64%. Team Sugar and the EFF received 9% and 3% respectively. The IFP has been governing Newcastle through a coalition since the 2021 local government election. While the by-election wins don't give the IFP a majority in council, it is now the largest party. The IFP has 22 seats, up from 19, while the ANC has 18, down from 21. The EFF has eight seats, Team Sugar has seven, the DA has five, ActionSA three and the FF+, NFP, PA and ATM have one each. IFP KZN chairperson Thami Ntuli said: “As we approach the provincial and national general elections these victories bolster our confidence and reaffirm our commitment to delivering meaningful change for the people of KwaZulu-Natal.” In ward 6 in uMshwathi, uMgungundlovu, the ANC retained the ward with 72%. The IFP won 24% and the EFF received 4%. The by-election took place due to the death of an ANC councillor. TimesLIVE Would you like to comment on this article?

Jack McColl is an entrepreneur, credit expert and mentor. He is the creator and visionary of the mentorship course Credit Stacking. Securing a 0% interest credit card can be a considerable game-changer for entrepreneurs and business owners, as they can offer potential financial flexibility. Yet, even at 0%, there are some distinct limitations to the purchasing power of a business credit card. This is particularly true in scenarios where liquid cash is the requirement for a new investment. For example, consider a real estate investor eager to purchase a single-family home that just hit the market. While the investor might have all the right credentials, the perfect contractors in place to flip the property and access to $50,000 of business credit, all of their liquid cash is tied up in other properties. Due to this "illiquid" situation, our investor can’t make the down payment and, therefore, risks forfeiting the deal. In such situations, traditional credit card transactions usually won’t cut it. That’s why in this article, we’ll explore the pros and cons of two methods entrepreneurs might be considering when looking to "liquidate" a business credit card. 1. Cash Advance/Convenience Checks In situations demanding immediate cash, the instinct might be to approach your bank for a cash advance or to use convenience checks, which are blank checks from a credit card company that you can use for payment. While this offers a swift solution, it comes with its own set of drawbacks. Cash advances often incur higher interest rates compared to regular purchase APRs, thereby eroding the benefits of using a 0% interest card in the first place. Moreover, most companies impose withdrawal limits on these cash advances. In my experience, these are typically at or around 30% of the total credit limit (e.g., $9,000 on a $27,000 card). This limitation not only restricts your access to liquid capital but might also trigger interest charges the moment the advance is taken. Therefore, when considering whether a cash advance is right for your business needs, it’s crucial to weigh the urgency against the associated costs. If immediate access to cash is imperative and the costs are acceptable, a cash advance might be an option to explore. 2. Balance Transfer Checks Another approach involves requesting balance transfer checks. This method can be used to write a check to yourself and deposit it into your business checking account. From there, you can pull cash out directly, write business checks or satisfy other investment requirements. Unlike cash advances, this method may enable you to use up to the full credit line without triggering interest charges, depending on the terms of your card. However, keep in mind that there could still be fees associated with this transaction. It’s also worth noting that not all banks permit this method. In conclusion, while the necessity to liquidate a 0% interest credit card may manifest in various business scenarios, it’s crucial to choose a method aligned with your financial objectives. Each strategy bears its own set of advantages and drawbacks, demanding careful consideration based on your specific circumstances. However, by navigating these strategies judiciously, entrepreneurs can harness the power of their credit cards to fuel their businesses or investments effectively. The key lies in understanding the nuances of each method, weighing the associated costs and making informed decisions that align with your financial goals.

Founder & Head Coach/CEO, The Funds2Orgs Group. Resilience is the cornerstone of success in life and business. It's the ability to weather storms and unexpected challenges that arise. It's the ability to adapt to change and learn from mistakes that inform decision-making, especially in business. But more than that, resilience is the ability to emerge stronger than before and within the most successful companies, with a culture that permeates the organization. As a business leader, I continually push my team to achieve more success and relentlessly pursue excellence. Inevitably, challenges do arise. Candidly, in our portfolio of brands, we've tested approaches that haven't worked out and withstood the challenges of the marketplace. But in the process, our team has created a culture of resilience and tenacity that drives our success. Understanding Resilience In Business The modern business climate is fierce. Ninety-nine percent of all businesses in the United States are considered small businesses. Further, of those companies, one in five fails within the first year. The companies that ensure they have resilient teams, especially in a climate of extreme uncertainty, best position themselves to succeed. Those whose teams can quickly recover from setbacks and reorient themselves have a leg up on their competitors. As of this writing, the global crisis in the Middle East continues and is on the path to growth. Aside from the war in that region of the world, a significant aspect of the crisis is the potential disruption of the global supply chain. Business leaders and consumers experienced a shock to the system during the supply chain disruption during the Covid pandemic, and it could happen again. As a result, resilient teams will best navigate this and any other disruption. The Role Of Leadership One of the most significant lessons I've experienced as a CEO and founder is the idea that a lot is riding on my shoulders. During the pandemic, I had many sleepless nights wondering how to save our brands and the jobs of everyone on my team. If there's a global supply chain disruption, a lot hangs on the shoulders of top businesspeople who will have to make tough decisions and model tenacity and resilience for their teams. The reality is that everything begins at the top, and that’s especially true for company culture. In the hands of leaders, the organizational mindset gets shaped. So, if companies want resilient teams, that ethos has to start at the top. For a culture of resilience, leaders should create a change mindset, which means learning to prioritize all the changes happening simultaneously and ensuring teams focus where they need to first and then go from that point. Moreover, leaders should support their teams in understanding that adversity is an opportunity where people have choices. The first choice is to shrink from it and walk away, and the second choice is to learn from adversity. How can leaders create a culture where learning happens? One of the best ways is to ask probing first and second-level questions about failure—without judgment. Learning From Adversity As any leader or manager who cares about leadership knows, adversity is a formidable teacher. However, if adversity is viewed as the most demanding teacher anyone has ever had, there's a lot to learn. An easy way to illustrate this idea about adversity and the learning and resilience that comes from it is to think about the most challenging teacher or professor you had in high school or college. You may have had that one teacher who was tough, but they're a remembered educator. That teacher may have even become a favored educator in your memory. Why? The answer is pretty simple: They challenged you. You might have thought for a time that you would fail the class. However, something inside you refused to give up, and you worked hard to overcome the challenges. You might not have obtained an A or B in the course, but the fact that you didn't fail and came through it is a testament to your resilience. Even decades later, you remember that teacher and that class because you got through it. And that's what resilience is about. Moreover, if you face up to adversity, you can learn from it in so many ways. Building Strong, Resilient Teams As any leader or manager knows, teams are the building blocks of any company and contribute to an organization's success. That's why there are a few rules to remember to ensure your organization can meet the demands and challenges of adversity and create a culture of resilience and tenacity. Some tips I've learned along the way and try to implement within my team include the following. • Learn what you can about team dynamics, even if you have to take management classes. • Ensure an open line of communication among teams, managers and senior leaders that isn't judgmental but full of inquiry. • Make it a point, as a leader, to set a common purpose for success throughout the company and within different parts of the business. • Embrace technology and the inevitable innovation from the continuous challenge to upskill and learn. Finally, remember that building a resilient company isn't about the destination—doing so is the journey. Adversity is a catalyst for growth and dynamism, and it builds muscle memory to overcome the myriad of challenges that any organization will inevitably face.

A GARAGE is to be demolished and replaced with a bungalow in the garden of an existing house. Neighbours in Linnet Road, Caldicot had raised concerns about the impact of a new home on their garage, parking and highway safety. But Monmouthshire County Council’s delegated planning panel agreed the plans were acceptable after applicant, Mike Pollock, of Severn View, Caldicot, amended the two planned parking spaces in response to concerns raised by the highways department about their dimensions. The parking spaces, which will have to be maintained, will also have to be in place before the bungalow can be occupied and planners said the other issues were civil matters outside of the planning process. The planning permission is dependent on a section 106 legal agreement which requires Mr Pollock to pay a £2,788 contribution towards affordable housing and a bird and bat box will also have to be provided. A report by planning officer Adam Foote also stated the garage could have been demolished without planning permission but their will be no automatic right to extend the new bungalow due to its proximity to neighbouring properties. The bungalow will face Linnet Road with parking to its front and a garden behind it.

CDC Relaxes COVID Guidelines; Will Schools, Day Cares Follow Suit? Four years after the COVID-19 pandemic closed schools and upended child care, the CDC says parents can start treating the virus like other respiratory illnesses. Gone are mandated isolation periods and masking. But will schools and child care centers agree? In case you’ve lost track: Before Friday, all Americans, including school children, were supposed to stay home for at least five days if they had COVID-19 and then mask for a set period of time, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now, with COVID deaths and hospitalizations dropping, the CDC says children can go back to school when their overall symptoms improve and they’re fever-free for 24 hours without taking medication. Students are “encouraged” to wear a mask when they return. Still, the change may not affect how individual schools urge parents to react when their children fall sick. Schools and child care providers have a mixed record on following CDC recommendations and often look to local authorities for the ultimate word. And sometimes other goals, such as reducing absences, can influence a state or district’s decisions. The result can be a confusing array of policies among states and districts, not to mention workplaces — confounding parents whose lives have long been upended by the virus. “This is so confusing,” said Gloria Cunningham, a single mom in the Boston area. “I just don’t know what I should think of COVID now. Is it still a monster?” Cunningham, who manages a local store for a national restaurant chain, said her company requires her to take off 10 days if she gets COVID-19. And the school system where her son is in second grade has still been sending home COVID test kits for kids to use before returning to school after long breaks. “I feel like we should just do away with anything that treats COVID differently or keep all of the precautions,” she said. The public education system has long held varying policies on COVID. During the 2021-22 school year, 18 states followed CDC recommendations for mask-wearing in class. When the CDC lifted its masking guidelines in February 2022, states such as Massachusetts followed suit, but California kept the mask requirement for schools. And in the child care world, some providers have long used more stringent testing and isolation protocols than the CDC has recommended. Reasons have ranged from trying to prevent outbreaks to keeping staff healthy — both for their personal safety and to keep the day care open. Some states moved to more lenient guidelines ahead of the CDC. California and Oregon recently rescinded COVID-19 isolation requirements, and many districts followed their advice. In an attempt to minimize school absences and address an epidemic of chronic absenteeism, California has encouraged kids to come to school when mildly sick and said that students who test positive for coronavirus but are asymptomatic can attend school. Los Angeles and San Diego’s school systems, among others, have adopted that policy. But the majority of big-city districts around the country still have asked parents to isolate children for at least five days before returning to school. Some, including Boston and Atlanta, have required students to mask for another five days and report positive COVID-19 test results to the school. Some school leaders suggest the CDC’s previous five-day isolation requirement was already only loosely followed. Official policy in Burlington, Massachusetts, has been to have students stay home for five days if they test positive. But Superintendent Eric Conti said the real policy, in effect, is: “It’s a virus. Deal with it.” That’s because COVID is managed at home, using the honor system. “Without school-based testing, no one can enforce a five-day COVID policy,” he said via text message. Ridley School District in the Philadelphia suburbs was already using a policy similar to the new CDC guidelines, said Superintendent Lee Ann Wentzel. Students who test positive for COVID must be fever-free without medication for at least 24 hours before returning to school. When they come back, they must mask for five days. Wentzel said the district is now considering dropping the masking requirement because of the new CDC guidance. A school or day care’s specific guidelines are consequential for working parents who must miss work if their child can’t go to school or child care. In October 2023, during simultaneous surges of COVID, respiratory syncytial virus and influenza, 104,000 adults reported missing work because of child care issues, the highest number in at least a decade. That number has fallen: Last month, child care problems meant 41,000 adults missed work, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Melissa Colagrosso’s child care center in West Virginia dropped special guidelines for COVID about a year ago, she said. Now, they’re the same as other illnesses: A child must be free of severe symptoms such as fever for at least 24 hours before returning to the center. “We certainly are treating COVID just like we would treat flu or hand, foot and mouth” disease, said Colagrosso, CEO of A Place To Grow Children’s Center in Oak Hill. As for kids without symptoms who test positive for COVID? Most parents have stopped testing kids unless they have symptoms, Colagrasso said, so it’s a quandary she has not encountered. Still, some parents worry the relaxed rules put their communities at greater risk. Evelyn Alemán leads a group of Latino and Indigenous immigrant parents in Los Angeles County. The parents she represents, many of whom suffer from chronic illnesses and lack of access to health care, panicked when California did away with isolation requirements in January. “I don’t think they’re considering what the impact will be for our families,” she said of California officials. “It feels like they don’t care — that we’re almost expendable.” Other impacts of the pandemic linger, too, even as restrictions are lifted. In Ridley, the Philadelphia-area district, more students are reclusive and struggle to interact in-person with peers, said Wentzel, the superintendent. Interest in school dances has plummeted. “Emotionally,” Wentzel said, “they’re having trouble.”

There were reports of 4-inch (10-centimeter) hail, nearly softball-size, in the town of Wabaunsee and 3-inch (7.6-centimeter) hail in Geary County near Junction City and Fort Riley, Wolters said. Descriptions of the hail ranged from the size of golf balls and apples, to softballs and baseballs. Alex Sosnowski, senior meteorologist at AccuWeather, previously said the predicted hail was deemed “gorilla hail” because it had the potential to be so big. “Gorilla hail” is a term coined by Reed Timmer, a storm chaser who calls himself an extreme meteorologist, Sosnowski said. In this case, the term might fit: Some hail from north-central Kansas into north-central Missouri could be as big as a baseball. “When you get up to tennis ball, baseball-sized or God forbid softball-sized, that can do a tremendous amount of damage, and if you get hit in the head, that could be fatal,” Sosnowski said. Traffic came to a standstill for a time on part of Interstate 70 because of the falling hail, the National Weather Service said on X. Images of large hail chunks and at least one cracked windshield were shown on KSHB-TV. Late Wednesday, forecasters issued tornado warnings in the areas around Topeka and to the north, while severe thunderstorm warnings were issued northeast of Kansas City in Missouri. “If you are in this warning, get away from windows and shelter inside now!!!” the National Weather Service posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. The weather service said the storm had previously produced “softball-sized hail,” or 3.5-inch (8.9-centimeter) chunks. The weather service also issued a severe thunderstorm watch for parts of Illinois, Iowa, Missouri and Kansas through Thursday morning, after which forecasters said the storm will move to the east. While the hail threat lessens Thursday, meteorologists said heavy rain and high winds were still possible from northeastern Texas through central Missouri. The biggest threat on Friday is for torrential rain — perhaps up to 4 inches (10 centimeters) in some spots — in a line from central Louisiana up through central Arkansas, Sosnowski said. Other parts of the country also were seeing severe weather. A major snowstorm hit Colorado starting Wednesday night, closing numerous schools and government offices and shutting down sections of highways leading to the Denver area. That storm wasn't expected to wind down until Friday. ___ Associated Press reporter Lisa Baumann contributed from Bellingham, Washington.

'Project Flavour' receives £1,500 boost for students to explore world of food A community news update from your area VALUABLE NUTRITION EDUCATION: Students with teacher Jennifer Walker at The Samworth Church Academy ‘Project Flavour’, an initiative developed at The Samworth Church Academy to teach students about nutrition and food preparation, has been told it will receive a £1,500 grant from Tesco’s Stronger Starts scheme. Tesco’s £5m grant programme, in partnership with Groundwork UK, aims to boost funds for extra food and activity equipment to give children across the UK a stronger start in life. The grants will support schools and children’s groups to provide nutritious food and healthy activities that promote young people’s physical health and mental wellbeing, such as breakfast clubs or snacks, and equipment for healthy activities. The Samworth Church Academy’s ‘Project Flavour’ initiative is receiving the grant for its work teaching an appreciation of ingredients and nutrition, as well as developing practical cooking skills that students can employ throughout their life. Students taking part in ‘Project Flavour’ have enjoyed visits to The School of Artisan Food, where they tried their hand at Ukrainian pancakes and creating their own sausages from scratch. They have also learnt the art of fire-making and bushcraft with ‘Way Back Skills’. Teacher Jennifer Walker is team leader of Food Studies and Project Flavour Lead at the academy and says the grant will be put to good use. “We are absolutely delighted to have been awarded the Tesco’s Stronger Starts grant and plan to use the money to further fund our project, allowing more students the opportunity to take part, get involved and make the project even bigger! We are incredibly grateful. “Project Flavour is so valuable, and our students gain so much from taking part. It provides our young people with opportunities not only to learn how to cook and about food being a source of nourishment, but also the social aspects of making food and eating together. It provides a greater understanding of different cultures, feeding others, trying new foods, learning where ingredients come from, gaining a love of food, and growing and cooking their own produce! “Students develop the knowledge to make informed choices that can support both physical and mental health, such as what might help them nutritionally during their exams or stressful times they may face in life. Emotionally and socially, Project Flavour has provided our young people with an understanding of the significance of food, developing a greater appreciation for the role that it plays in their lives and that of others.” Student Zarin in Year 8 said, “I like how Project Flavour shows us what people from other cultures eat. I like how we get to experience using things in the kitchen like the stoves and the new foods we try.” Year 8 student Cherry said, “I really love Project Flavour because it lets your inner chef burst out of its shell! I also like it because you get to explore the world of foods and get prepared for adult life, so you know how to cook and nourish yourself. I also like taking the recipes home so I can make them there.” Student Ava, Year 8 said, “I really like Project Flavour as I like the freedom it gives you to make and try new foods. Also, I like how you get to grow things individually and help out and use recipes at home and show our carers. It's taught me how to use things in the kitchen that I didn't know before.” Tesco’s Stronger Starts - previously Tesco Bags of Help and Tesco Community Grants - has already provided over £110 million to more than 60,000 projects across Britain. Lisa McVeigh, Principal at The Samworth Church Academy said, “This grant will help us with our plans to extend Project Flavour, introducing even more food related sessions to more of our students. We hope the valuable life skills Project Flavour develops in our students will benefit them for the rest of their lives.” Claire de Silva, Tesco UK head of communities and local media, said, “Helping schools and children’s groups access the food and resources they need is vitally important in getting children a stronger start in life. Children with enough food have more energy, better concentration, and ultimately achieve more too." Graham Duxbury, Groundwork’s UK chief executive, said: “As a community charity, we have seen first-hand how schools and other groups supporting young people have been playing a much bigger role in ensuring children are getting a healthy start to the day and getting access to spaces and services to support physical activity and mental health. Family budgets are tight and school budgets are tight, but it’s so important that children stay fed, fit and focused, so we’re delighted to be able to prioritise these activities alongside Tesco with the Stronger Starts programme.” Funding is available to community groups and charities looking to fund local projects that bring benefits to communities.

France coach Fabien Galthie has named an unchanged team for their final Six Nations fixture against England in Lyon on Saturday, which means a second run at fly half for Thomas Ramos with options thin in the No 10 jersey. Ramos usually plays full back but injuries to Matthieu Jalibert and Romain Ntamack have thrust him into the 10 role, where he had a mixed performance in the 45-24 win over Wales last weekend, including some poor moments on defence. It also means further run outs for lock Emmanuel Meafou, centre Nicolas Depoortere and fullback Leo Barre, who all debuted in the five-try victory in Cardiff in which France’s forward power proved the difference in the final 20 minutes. Damian Penaud and Louis Bielle-Biarrey are on the wings, with Gael Fickou partnering Depoortere in midfield and Nolann Le Garrec given another start at scrum half after impressing last week. Props Cyril Baille and Uini Atonio are either side of hooker Julien Marchand, with Thibaud Flament and Meafou in the second row, and flankers Francois Cros and captain Gregory Alldritt at the back of the scrum alongside Charles Ollivon. Galthie has again opted for a 6-2 split between forwards and backs among the replacements to counter the physical threat of England in the final quarter of the game. Scrum half Maxime Lucu and centre Yoram Moefana are the two backs on the bench. France still have the slimmest of hopes of lifting the Six Nations trophy this season. They need to beat England with a bonus point and hope Scotland defeat Ireland in Dublin, with the latter taking no points from the game. Galthie’s side would then still need to make up a 76-point swing on points difference to overhaul the Irish. France team to face England in Lyon: 15. Leo Barre, 14. Damian Penaud, 13. Gael Fickou, 12. Nicolas Depoortere, 11. Louis Bielle. Biarrey, 10. Thomas Ramos, 9. Nolann Le Garrec; 1. Cyril Baille, 2. Julien Marchand, 3. Uini Atonio, 4. Thibaud Flament, 5. Emmanuel Meafou, 6. Francois Cros, 7. Charles Ollivon, 8. Gregory Alldritt (c) Replacements: 16. Peato Mauvaka, 17. Sebastien Taofifenua, 18. Georges-Henri Colombe, 19. Romain Taofifenua, 20. Alexandre Roumat, 21.

Lorraine Kelly fans have branded her interview with Norah Jones on Thursday as 'awkward' and 'cringe'. The TV presenter, 64, had the American singer, 44, as a guest on her ITV show to discuss the release of her ninth studio album, Visions. However, the interview failed to impress viewers, who found it very stilted and tough to watch. Many commented that Norah was giving very short answers to Lorraine's questions and didn't seem willing to open up without a lot of prompting. Lorraine gushed: 'I can't believe it's 20 years ago that you first exploded onto the scene' to which Norah interrupted her to correct: '22, 22 years. It's nice yeah'. Lorraine Kelly fans have branded her interview with Norah Jones on Thursday as 'awkward' and 'cringe' The TV presenter, 64, had the American singer, 44, as a guest on her ITV show to discuss the release of her ninth studio album, Visions However, the interview failed to impress viewers, who found it very stilted and tough to watch The host then asked about Norah's upcoming tour and if she would be taking her two children, aged nine and seven, with her, or keeping work and family separate. Norah responded: 'No I do both, I try to do a lot in the summer so they can come out more.' Lorraine then brought up her songs being used in movies, pointing to her song with Danger Mouse, Black, being used in hit show Breaking Bad. Lorraine asked: 'When you're watching something and your song comes on, it must be fantastic?' Norah - whose hits include Don't Know Why and Come Away with Me - replied: 'Well you usually know, because you have to give approval, but yeah it was cool.' Viewers watching at home took to social media to slam Norah as 'rude and difficult to interview', while expressing pity for Lorraine for trying to keep the chat going. One person wrote: 'Poor #Lorraine. That was a tough interview with Norah Jones and her 2 word answers! Seems a bit up herself.' While another echoed: 'Don't think Norah wants to be there' and a third added: 'Totally agree, Lorraine usually so skilled is making it seem hard work.' Many commented that Norah was giving very short answers to Lorraine's questions and didn't seem willing to open up without a lot of prompting Viewers watching at home took to social media to slam Norah as 'rude and difficult to interview', while expressing pity for Lorraine for trying to keep the chat going A fourth tweeted: 'God I feel for @reallorraine, not sure Norah Jones is a morning person, although she perked up talking about pottery. Well done for persevering Lorraine #awks'. Someone else agreed, fuming: 'For someone who I only know from one song years ago Norah Jones was very rude and difficult to interview on #lorraine'. While a sixth penned: 'Poor #Lorraine with Norah Jones. One word answers ! Considering she's not been in the limelight for years, she must have forgotten how to talk !! #cringe'. And another commented: 'Bloody hell this interview is so awkward', while an eighth replied: 'I thought that! Smacks of Meg Ryan on Parkie'. Michael Parkinson infamously interviewed Meg Ryan in 2003 on his BBC talk show, to promote her film In the Cut. The actress gave a series of short answers and seemingly desired to be elsewhere, causing the talk show veteran to snap back and say she was 'wary of journalists' and 'didn't like being interviewed'. He later asked: 'If you were me, what would you do now?', to which Meg ordered him to: 'Just wrap it up.' Michael branded 'beautiful Meg' as an 'unhappy woman', putting her irritated facial expressions and stand-off-ish behaviour down to her film's poor performance.

Michael later apologised for the car crash encounter and confessed to being 'angry and pompous', but added that they were both to blame for the frosty incident. In 2021, two years before his death last year, he told Radio Times: 'I wish I hadn't lost my temper with Meg Ryan. I wish I'd dealt with it in a more courteous manner. 'I was obviously angry with her and it's not my business to be angry towards the guests. I came across as kind of pompous and I could have done better.' Asked what he would say to her now, he replied: 'I'm sorry. But you played a part in it too. Neither of us were on top form.'

Smithfield, RI, March 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Thanks to a generous $5 million gift from incoming Board of Trustees Chair D. Ellen Wilson ’79, Bryant University will create the Ellen Wilson Leadership Center, anchored at the new Business Entrepreneurship Leadership Center. This transformational Vision 2030 gift builds on the university’s leadership legacy and empowers all Bryant students to explore and enrich their leadership potential in impactful ways during their college experience and into their careers. “Bryant students show up ready to solve big problems with creative ideas, and they have the drive to turn those ideas into action,” says Wilson. “The Ellen Wilson Leadership Center will expand on the university’s top-tier academic and co-curricular offerings to propel our students to the next level, solidifying Bryant as a premier institution for educating the next generation of leaders.” “Ellen Wilson’s generous gift to create the Ellen Wilson Leadership Center is a testament to her strong belief in Bryant’s exceptional students and our talented faculty and staff, who live the center’s core mission: to build extraordinary, ethical, and inclusive leaders capable of impacting the world,” says Bryant University President Ross Gittell, Ph.D. “Thank you, Ellen, for your unwavering commitment to creating pathways of opportunity for Bryant University students.” The Ellen Wilson Leadership Center launches this fall with the Women’s Leadership Institute, which provides a home for Bryant’s exceptional women undergraduates. The institute serves to empower and equip Bryant’s female-identifying students with the skills, knowledge, and real-world experience they need to shatter glass ceilings, break down barriers, and change the world around them. “The women students at Bryant are some of the most ambitious and dedicated students I’ve met in my 20-plus years in higher ed,” says Inge-Lise Ameer, Ed.D., vice president of Student Affairs, dean of students, chief diversity officer, and executive director of Bryant’s Women’s Summit. “The Women’s Leadership Institute is the perfect place to nurture this impressive next generation of leaders. We are so grateful to Ellen Wilson for recognizing this and carving out a space for these remarkable women to excel.” The Ellen Wilson Leadership Fellows program also launches in fall of 2024.

Dan Swift is CEO of Numentum, a buyer experience consultancy that helps B2B organizations go to market faster, bigger and more effectively. When I started at LinkedIn in 2012, I joined their Sales Solutions (LSS) team—effectively a startup within a startup—to help bring a new product to market: LinkedIn Sales Navigator. Since I owed so much of my sales success at the time to building and maintaining relationships via LinkedIn's namesake platform, the opportunity to use and sell a product made explicitly for salespeople like myself seemed like a no-brainer. B2B companies always look for ways to streamline and optimize their sales motions, so I figured that Sales Navigator would sell itself. Many forward-thinking companies did purchase licenses, but we noticed something not long after launch: Companies struggled to drive adoption across their sales organizations, resulting in commercial growth limitations for LinkedIn and frustration for our customers. Lagging adoption is a common theme across technology companies, particularly ones that sell into the enterprise. On the other side of the table, adoption is also a pain point for customers. Every year, B2B go-to-market teams allocate significant financial resources to technology aimed at enhancing the efficiency of sellers and marketers. Unfortunately, the notable lack of adoption is a common issue across such endeavors, which equates to many tech investments becoming a veritable waste of company money. As B2B teams have been charged to do "more with less" for a few years now and money's more expensive to borrow than it has been in a decade, budget hemorrhages have rarely been more obvious and damaging to the bottom line. Now is an excellent time for leaders to rethink technology purchases and internal adoption through the lens of a prospective buyer's experience with the brand. There are a couple of ways to achieve that: Focus on the right technology and make adoption make sense for users. Focus on the right technology. A dizzying number of technologies promise AI capabilities that should free end users from the time it takes to approach buyers and decision-makers with relevant and engaging messaging. Some of the same tech also enables sending a spam-level amount of outreach with a few quick clicks—and therein lies the problem. Any technology that enables and accelerates buyer alienation is bad. Period. It's also expensive, both from a purchasing standpoint and for your company's reputation. Approaching technology investments through the lens of buyer experience means making sales and marketing professionals more effective. My advice? Adopt the tools that enable go-to-market teams to create, deepen and leverage relationships. Forgo the outreach auto spam stuff because no credible data has ever proven that a high volume of messages equates to a high-quality pipeline. Make adoption make sense. There are two absolutes: Every company has its own unique business needs, and most productive people will feel they’re too busy to learn yet another new technology. Adoption often lags because vendors promise a few generic user training webinars that don’t take said unique business needs into account. It may also lag because internal enablement teams lack the domain expertise to convince go-to-market teams that they’re an authority on the technology or have a sales background to ground the training into relevance. Busy salespeople will find a reason not to listen to a non-team member telling them how to do their job—unless that trainer has been a seller themselves. It’s critical, therefore, to start by showing the salesperson how they personally and professionally will benefit from leveraging the technology, and that’s not possible to do effectively without prior experience. According to Gartner, 49% of surveyed salespeople reported feeling overwhelmed by the number of tools required to do their job. This means if you’re going to introduce a new technology, it should seamlessly integrate into existing workflows and buyer personas without adding extra work. Generic vendor content that’s been put into company-branded PowerPoints doesn't equate to customizing training materials for easy adoption. Trainers should demonstrate how these parts of this technology plug into that current workflow to solve that productivity pain point—without a bunch of extra work for the salesperson to be successful. Finally, if you can’t make it make sense to the executives and frontline managers, who have both individual and team management responsibilities, then the technology investment is dead on arrival. It’s critical that top executives and first-line managers buy into the need for the solution. Executive sponsorship has to consist of more than lip service. A lot of money is on the table, so executives should actively stay up-to-date on how many and how well users are benefitting from the investment. Great leaders understand that every new process or technology will have its early adopters and laggards. They concentrate on effecting incremental change among the middle performers, who vastly outweigh the other two groups. In the case of frontline managers, they don’t want to look incapable in front of their team members, so it’s important to train them first to be experts on the new technology so they can operate as champions for adoption. Nail the approach. The challenges of technology adoption in B2B sales are significant but surmountable with the right approach. Companies can improve their bottom line and buyer experience by focusing on the right technology—tools that enhance relationship-building rather than enable impersonal mass outreach—and by making adoption meaningful and tailored to individual and organizational needs. Executive sponsorship and frontline-manager engagement are crucial for successful adoption, as they set the tone for the entire organization. By rethinking technology adoption through the lens of the buyer's experience, B2B companies can achieve greater efficiency, effectiveness and, ultimately, success in their sales endeavors.

'Nobody can find me having stolen one cent': Pravin Gordhan on terminated SAA deal As public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan closed the book on the controversial sale of 51% of SAA to Takatso Consortium, he again addressed allegations of corruption in the collapsed deal. Gordhan on Wednesday announced the termination of the sale of majority SAA shares to Takatso Consortium as a strategic partner due to delays and competition policy challenges after three years in the making. The decision comes weeks after Gordhan appeared before parliament's public enterprises committee, probing allegations of irregularities regarding the sale made by former department director-general Kgathatso Tlhakudi, to present documents relating to the deal. When Gordhan requested the meeting be held in camera without the the media and MPs sign a non-disclosure agreement before documents were presented, this raised suspicions the minister “had something to hide”. Gordhan has defended himself, saying he did not commit corruption and neither he nor his family benefit financially from the deal. “Suddenly I have become a corrupt individual in the eyes of some people without them having an iota of proof. If you find me having stolen one cent of public money you have something on your side which I do not have. Nobody can find that,” Gordhan said. With the deal terminated a few months before the elections, he was certain the termination was not done under pressure. “This was not done under pressure. This was a process professionally handled by the department and we came to the point where we say, maybe this is not the best route for SAA to be taken through,” he said. Gordhan was confident the state entity, with improved revenue, could be able to be profitable as Takatso will no longer be investing in it. The share sale started in June 2021 and Takatso was expected to invest more than R3bn over three years. The work to improve and stabilise SAA finances would be managed by the new administration. The minister will retire from politics after the May 29 elections. “There will be further steps taken by this sixth administration and the seventh administration to stabilise SAA. We are confident SAA will continue to fly and grow the number of routes and aircraft it is able to lease.” Minister Gordhan briefs the media on developments relating to SAA TimesLIVE Would you like to comment on this article?

A PLAN to extend a path through private woodland in Monmouth has been agreed by a council. Dr Chris Sparks notified Monmouthshire County Council of his intention to extend the path through the 1.6 hectare Brookholme Wood at Great Manson Farm on Osbaston Road by 200 metres. It will be two metres wide and is to enable ongoing management of the woodland including the felling and removal of trees. No surfacing will be applied to the track unless necessary, where it is required local crushed stone will be used. Dr Sparks said in his notification of agricultural works that a small number of larch trees will also have to be felled to create the path. The planning department said the plans are acceptable as the path is “reasonably required for forestry purposes” and Dr Sparks owns and maintains sufficient land to be able to construct forestry tracks without the need for full planning consent.

Exclusive: Social Security Chief Vows to Fix ‘Cruel-Hearted’ Overpayment Clawbacks The Social Security Administration’s new chief is promising to overhaul the agency’s system of clawing back billions of dollars it claims was wrongly sent to beneficiaries, saying it “just doesn’t seem right or fair.” In an interview with KFF Health News, SSA Commissioner Martin O’Malley said that in the coming days he would propose changes to help people avoid crushing debts that have driven some into homelessness and caused financial hardships for the nation’s most vulnerable — the poorest of the poor and people with disabilities or persistent medical conditions or who are at least age 65. O’Malley, who took office in December, said that “addressing the injustice we do to too many Americans because of overpayments, the rather cruel-hearted and mindless way that we recover those overpayments,” is among his top priorities. He said he has concrete steps in mind, such as establishing a statute of limitations, shifting the burden of proof to the agency, and imposing a 10% cap on clawbacks for some beneficiaries. “We do have the ability and we do have the authority to address many of these injustices,” he said, suggesting that the SSA won’t have to wait for congressional action. The pledge comes after an investigation by KFF Health News and Cox Media Group television stations revealed that SSA routinely reduces or halts monthly benefit checks to reclaim billions of dollars in payments it sent to beneficiaries then later said they should not have received. In some cases, years passed before the government discovered its mistake and then imposed debts that sometimes have reached tens of thousands of dollars on people who cannot afford to pay. KFF Health News and Cox Media Group discovered that more than 2 million people a year have been hit with overpayment demands. Most overpayments are linked to the Supplemental Security Income program, which provides money to people with little or no income, who are disabled, blind, or at least age 65. Others are connected to the Social Security Disability Insurance program, which aids disabled workers and their dependents. O’Malley said the agency plans to cease efforts to claw back years-old overpayments and halt the practice of terminating benefits for disabled workers who don’t respond to overpayment notices because they did not receive them or couldn’t make sense of them. “We’re not fulfilling congressional intent by putting seniors out of their homes and having them live under a bridge when they didn’t understand our notice,” O’Malley said. Denise Woods lives in her Chevy, seeking a safe place to sleep each night at strip malls or truck stops around Savannah, Georgia. Woods said she became homeless in 2022 after the SSA — without explanation — determined it had overpaid her and demanded she send back roughly $58,000. Woods didn’t have that amount on hand, so the agency cut off her monthly disability benefits to recoup the debt. The agency later restored some of her benefit allowance: She gets $616 a month. That’s not enough to cover rent in Savannah, where even modest studio apartments can run $1,000 a month. In January, she fell ill and landed in intensive care with pneumonia. “I signed a [Do Not Resuscitate form] and a nurse asked, ‘Do you know what this means?’” Woods said. “I told her there was no reason to revive me if my heart stops. They have already ruined my life. I’m beyond exhausted.” After KFF Health News and Cox Media Group published the series “Overpayment Outrage,” hundreds of disability beneficiaries came forward with troubling accounts, including how the government sent them overpayment notices without explanation and threatened to cut off their main source of income with little warning. Members of Congress publicly demanded that SSA fix the problems. Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon said he would meet monthly with agency officials “until it is fixed.” Sens. Gary Peters and Debbie Stabenow, both Michigan Democrats, sent a letter dated Feb. 29 to the SSA, saying many overpayments were caused by the agency. They asked officials to explain what is causing the problems. “It’s absolutely critical that the agency is accurately administering these benefits,” Peters said in written response to an interview request. “I’ve heard from too many people across Michigan who have faced financial hardship after the agency sent them incorrect payments.” The agency recovered $4.9 billion of overpayments during the 2023 fiscal year, with an additional $23 billion in overpayments still uncollected, according to its latest annual financial report. O’Malley said he wants to address overpayment clawbacks as part of a larger effort to address SSA’s “customer service crisis.” He did not provide specifics but said he anticipated plans would be implemented this year. Officials have long acknowledged that the federal disability system is dogged by lengthy delays and dysfunction. Some people become homeless or grow sicker while waiting for an initial decision on an application, which took an average of over seven months in 2023, according to a letter signed by dozens of members of Congress. O’Malley said the agency terminates disability benefits for some people who don’t contact the SSA after receiving a clawback letter. “To be honest, a lot of problems [are caused by] our notices being hard to read,” O’Malley said. “In fact, one might argue that the only thing that’s really clear about the notice is to call the 800 number.” The agency’s toll-free number, O’Malley said, is on his fix-it list, too. Callers complain of lengthy hold times and often are unable to reach an agent for help, according to congressional members, disability attorneys, and others. O’Malley pointed to a 27-year low in staffing. “We’ve been unpacking many of these customer service challenges,” he said. “There’s not one of them that hasn’t been made worse by the short staff.” Still, he said, the overpayment process is unfair. Beneficiaries often must produce evidence to show they did not receive extra money, O’Malley noted. “One would assume that in a country where people are innocent until proven guilty,” he said, “that the burden should fall more on the agency than on the unwitting beneficiary.” Advocates for the poor and disabled said they are hopeful O’Malley will stick to his commitments. “Overpayments have long plagued our clients and caused severe hardship,” said Jen Burdick, an attorney with Community Legal Services of Philadelphia, which represents clients who have received overpayment notices. “We are heartened to see that SSA’s new commissioner is taking a hard look at overpayment policy reforms and optimistic and hopeful his administration will provide these folks some long-needed relief.” Mike Pistorio is worried that change won’t come fast enough for him. A letter dated Sept. 21, 2023, that he received from the Social Security Administration says he was overpaid $9,344. The letter alleges Pistorio — a disabled 63-year-old who said he has four stents in his heart — received too much money on behalf of his children, who are now adults. Pistorio said that he doesn’t understand why he owes the government money and that the SSA has not answered his questions. He said he and his wife live in fear of being evicted from their home because they depend on his $1,266 monthly disability benefits to pay rent. “What makes me mad is none of this is my fault,” said Pistorio, who lives in Middletown, Pennsylvania, and worked as a plumber until his health faltered. “The stress of this has made my diabetes go up.” Pistorio said the agency has offered to deduct $269 a month from his benefits to pay off his debt — an amount he says he cannot afford. “I have told them ‘I will lose my housing,’” Pistorio said. David Hilzenrath of KFF Health News and Jodie Fleischer of Cox Media Group contributed to this report.

“Everybody was ecstatic,” said Dr. Neal ElAttrache, the head team physician for the Dodgers. “I was maybe the only one concerned because a jump in velocity, especially after a Tommy John operation, over the course of two to three years to that magnitude is exponentially more strain and stress on the ligament.” ElAttrache's concern proved prophetic, and he operated on Ohtani's elbow again in September — this one an enhanced version of Tommy John surgery. With the 50th anniversary of the first Tommy John procedure approaching in September, ElAttrache and Ohtani are at the center of what might be the operation's most compelling case study. The Dodgers are betting on a successful conclusion, too. They handed a record $700 million contract to the 29-year-old Ohtani in free agency in December. “Fifty years after the first Tommy John and 34 years after I learned how to do the operation, now a guy's having his second operation and he's not only expected to come back to (his) previous level of performance, it just so happens that he's being paid to be the best player in the history of baseball,” ElAttrache said during a telephone interview with The Associated Press, "if you consider that $700 million contract." “And for him to stay back, because that's a long-term contract, guaranteed money,” he continued. “It's remarkable the confidence that the baseball world has in this procedure at this point. And, I think, rightly so.” Following his first Tommy John procedure, Ohtani returned to the mound in July 2020. The two-time AL MVP went 34-17 with a 2.97 ERA in 76 starts for the Angels over four seasons before he got hurt again Aug. 23 against Cincinnati. Ohtani has dodged questions about his second elbow surgery. He said at his introductory press conference with the Dodgers in December that this operation was "completely different from my first time, so I don't know what you want to call it. You could probably talk to my doctor about that." ElAttrache described Ohtani's second operation as a hybrid procedure involving an internal brace — adding braided suture to repair the torn ligament — as well as the insertion of the tendon like what is done in a traditional Tommy John surgery. The hybrid approach, combining the ligament replacement originated by Dr. Frank Jobe with the artificial internal brace developed by Dr. Jeffrey R. Dugas, was developed by Texas Rangers team physician Dr. Keith Meister. “He and I are both doing the same thing, same philosophy, in adding braided suture to repair and enhance the existing torn ligament as well as putting in the new graft,” ElAttrache said. “So you’re getting all the benefits of an augmented what’s called internal brace, where you’re putting suture in to brace the elbow. I like to put that suture in the native tissue because then I know it’s perfectly anatomic and it’ll tighten at exactly the right time.” Ohtani is the biggest name on a short list of big league pitchers who have had the hybrid procedure. One of them is Tyler Glasnow, a 6-foot-8 right-hander who signed a $136.5 million, five-year contract with the Dodgers after he was acquired in a trade. Ohtani will be limited to hitting duties during his first season with the Dodgers, but his road back to a big league mound could include a major moment on the anniversary of the first Tommy John procedure. “It just so happens that, if he goes along with the throwing program as we have it scheduled, he’ll be throwing his first simulated game the last week of September,” ElAttrache told the AP. “Tommy John’s operation 50 years ago was September 25th, 1974. So Ohtani will be throwing his first sim game 50 years almost to the date of the first Tommy John, which is pretty wild.” ___ AP Baseball Writer Ronald Blum contributed to this report. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP

Italy have made three changes to their side to face Wales in their final Six Nations clash in Cardiff on Saturday as Lorenzo Pani comes in to replace the injured Ange Capuozzo at full back. The lively Capuozzo fractured a finger in his left hand during the 31-29 victory over Scotland last weekend and has been ruled out, having been a key figure for the side when they defeated Wales 22-21 in their last visit to the Principality Stadium in 2022 – memorably creating the winning try. Other changes made by head coach Gonzalo Quesada see Stephen Varney start at scrum half ahead of Martin Page-Relo, who drops to the bench, and Lorenzo Cannone come in at No 8 in place of Ross Vintcent, who is also among the replacements. Paolo Garbisi keeps his place at fly half, while Louis Lynagh, who scored a try on his debut in the win over the Scots, and Monty Ioane are on the wings. The centre pairing is made up of Tommaso Menoncello and Juan Ignacio Brex. Cannone is joined in the back three by captain Michele Lamaro and Sebastian Negri, while brother Niccolo Cannone and Federico Ruzza make up the second row. Hooker Giacomo Nicotera will have props Danilo Fischetti and Simone Ferrari either side of him. Italy can complete a best-ever Six Nations campaign with victory against the Welsh, who have lost all four of their matches so far this season. Following a 13-13 draw against France in which Garbisi missed a kick to win with the final play of the game, the Azzuri adding another win to their Scotland success would be an improvement on all previous years. They could finish as high as third in the table with a bonus-point victory but would need Scotland and France to lose their final matches to Ireland and England respectively. Italy team to face Wales: 15. Lorenzo Pani, 14. Louis Lynagh, 13. Juan Ignacio Brex, 12. Tommaso Menoncello, 11. Monty Ioane, 10. Paolo Garbisi, 9. Stephen Varney; 1. Danilo Fischetti, 2. Giacomo Nicotera, 3. Simone Ferrari, 4. Niccolo Cannone, 5. Federico Ruzza, 6. Sebastian Negri, 7. Michele Lamaro (c), 8. Lorenzo Cannone Replacements: 16. Gianmarco Lucchesi, 17. Mirco Spagnolo, 18. Giosue Zilocchi, 19. Andrea Zambonin, 20. Ross Vintcent, 21. Manuel Zuliani, 22. Martin Page-Relo, 23.

The presenters were joined by reality star turned sports presenter Chris Hughes as they headed to the racecourse for the day. And as the two campmates reunited for the This Morning segment, it wasn't long before they were getting stuck into their very own horse race. As Chris and his fellow commentator popped horse masks on, Josie and Sam stepped up to the role as jockeys as they galloped around the paddock in a hilarious piggy back race. Josie, 39, looked to be gripping on for dear life as she held on to her 'horse' who she named 50 Shades of Hay. Josie Gibson and Sam Thompson galloped around as 'jockeys' in a hilarious piggy back race as they attend day three of Cheltenham Festival as part of Thursday's This Morning The presenters were joined by reality star turned sports presenter Chris Hughes (under the horse mask) as they headed to the racecourse for the day Dressed to impress the pair looked the part as they strutted their stuff in stylish ensembles. While Chris remarked that Jose looked like Inspector Gadget last year, he admitted she 'nailed it' this year as she opted for a long khaki coat with a white blouse and knee high suede boots. Meanwhile Sam, 31, wore a fun jockey hat, complete with googles and a whip as he posed for photos with his co-star. Josie could barely contain her laughter as the radio presenter got into character and pretended to ride an imaginary horse. She topped off her look with a trilby hat and a silk scarf, styling her hair into glamorous curls. Meanwhile, Sam wore a blue suit with a white shirt, navy tie and brown suede shoes for the event. Cheltenham Festival punters faced 'absolute bedlam' when trying to leave the racecourse when heavy rain created traffic chaos on the event's opening day. Torrential downpours and boggy fields caused a nightmare in the festival car parks, as thousands tried to head home at the end of a thrilling day of racing. And as the two campmates reunited for the This Morning segment, it wasn't long before they were getting stuck in to their very own horse race Josie, 39, looked to be gripping on for dear life as she held on to her 'horse' who she named 50 Shades of Hay Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard were in hysterics as they watched from the studio The duo were seen fooling around as they attended day three of Cheltenham Festival Vehicles got stuck in the heavy mud, creating queues of up to two hours on the opening day of the four-day event. Those arriving to watch today's racing are also likely to encounter travel problems, as images from this morning have shown tractors pulling trapped cars out of the thick mud after more heavy showers fell overnight. More than 60,000 supporters attended the opening day of the prestigious 164-year-old racing meet and swarmed the course's grandstand, betting rings and Guinness Village. Rain was expected to fall throughout this week, but last night's downpours were significantly heavier than what was forecast, leading to today's Glenfarclas Cross-County Chase being postponed. The race is run on a different track to other races at the festival and does not drain as well.

A Cheltenham spokesperson said: "Following 11mm of rainfall throughout yesterday, there has been no improvement in the conditions on the Cross Country Course and with areas of the track unraceable, the Cross Country Chase has sadly been abandoned. "The forecast for the remainder of the week continues to look unsettled, with further showers likely on both Thursday and Friday. "There will therefore be insufficient improvement to the Cross Country Course by Friday, and the decision has been taken not to reschedule the race."

Chinese archaeologists move to restore quake-ravaged heritage site XINING, March 14 (Xinhua) -- Chinese archaeologists have been making great efforts to restore and repair damaged artifacts in a renowned site of prehistoric ruins after it was ravaged by a powerful earthquake. On Dec. 18, 2023, a 6.2-magnitude earthquake struck Jishishan County, northwest China's Gansu Province, leaving more than 150 people dead in Gansu and neighboring Qinghai Province. The quake caused sinking foundations, cracked walls, and collapsing ceilings in the museum of the Lajia archaeological site, located in the eastern part of Qinghai, on the upper reaches of the Yellow River. Sixty-eight pottery artifacts were damaged to varying extents. As the quake struck, curator Wu Xiulan and her team rushed to the museum to assess the situation despite the looming threat of aftershocks before alerting the authorities about the damage. A unique testament to ancient civilizations, Lajia ruins were formed by natural calamities such as earthquakes, mudslides, and floods dating back 4,000 years. Archaeologists said Lajia is the only prehistoric disaster site in China, and it was dubbed the Oriental Pompeii after the ancient Roman city was destroyed by volcanic eruptions. Unearthed since the 1980s, the site has yielded extraordinary artifacts, including a jade knife and the world's oldest noodles. Archaeologists have also discovered settlements of the Qijia culture, high-level burials, moats, small squares, altars, and other important relics here. After the quake hit, the provincial culture and tourism department of Qinghai swiftly assembled a specialized task force to inspect the extent of the devastation at the museum and take urgent measures to protect the imperiled cultural treasures. The National Cultural Heritage Administration has allocated 300,000 yuan (about 41,718 U.S. dollars) in emergency funding to Qinghai and coordinated experts from other archaeological organizations to conduct on-site evaluations and formulate meticulous protection and restoration plans. "Specific restoration plans are made for each damaged item," said Gao Zhiwei, an expert at the Qinghai Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, adding that a file detailing the protection process will be established after each restoration. The degree of damage to the pottery artifacts varies. Some were only slightly cracked or chipped, while others were severely damaged, broken into more than 70 or 80 pieces, with some pieces as large as palms and others as small as fingertips. "Repairing severely damaged artifacts is difficult because it involves piecing together all these fragments," Gao said. In addition to the expertise and skills involved in the restoration, Li Feng, director of the Cultural Relics Protection Center of Qinghai Museum, underscored the process's cultural significance. "Each fragment carries the weight of time. In the process of restoration, it feels as if we are having a cross-temporal dialogue with the artisans who made these pottery pieces thousands of years ago," Li said. "Through restoration, we can truly appreciate the superb pottery-making techniques of ancient people more than 4,000 years ago." Currently, a total of 17 pottery pieces have been restored, and it is estimated that all the damaged artifacts will be repaired by August or September this year. Looking ahead, the provincial culture and tourism department of Qinghai will prepare repair plans for other quake-ravaged cultural relics, seek support from special national funds for cultural relics, and incorporate them into post-earthquake reconstruction plans.

Vice President & Head of Digital Modalities at SAP, leading AI innovation adoption to increase sales & business development productivity. Let's dive into an exciting journey through the realm of sales, where artificial intelligence (AI) isn't just a buzzword; it's a revolution. Imagine the world of sales and business development getting a major upgrade. That's right, AI is stepping in, transforming those old-school sales processes into something way cooler, more efficient and incredibly tailored to what businesses and customers need. As a leader in digital transformation, I bring over 15 years of enterprise experience in reputable organizations across Asia and North America, spearheading essential AI-driven projects to enhance the effectiveness of sales and business development teams, thereby achieving significant business growth. My primary goal has been to uncover latent automation prospects within our traditional sales & business development cycle and develop a fully digital counterpart through AI-powered automation. This initiative aims to not only boost our operational efficiency internally but also—and more crucially—to provide our customers with unforgettable experiences. Let’s explore how to make this magic happen. Welcome To The Digital Sales Revolution, AI-Style Think of AI as the superhero in the sales world. It's not just about getting robots to do the grunt work; it's about making the sales team's life a breeze and letting them focus on the cool stuff. AI-powered tools are now adept at sifting through data to identify promising leads, enabling sales teams to concentrate their efforts more effectively. AI goes beyond mere automation; it dives into oceans of data to unearth insights that were once hidden. This deep analysis allows for a level of personalization in customer interactions that was previously unattainable. As originally reported in a Harvard Business Review blog, companies using AI in their sales efforts experienced an increase in leads by more than half, saw cost reductions by as much as 60%, and reduced call times by as much as 70%. Making Things Personal Here's where it gets awesome. Imagine this: Every chat, email and offer you get is like it's been crafted just for you. That's AI at work! No more of those bland, one-size-fits-all pitches. Now, AI is like a mind reader for sales teams, helping them get a real sense of what each customer digs, making every interaction a special moment. And here's the kicker—with predictive analytics, it's like businesses have a crystal ball. They can peek into the future. By looking at what you've liked or bought before, AI predicts what you might want next. It's not about bombarding you with random stuff but offering things that feel right on the money. This way, businesses aren't just keeping up; they're playing the game of tomorrow today. It's all about making you feel like they really get you, turning every sale into a personal win. How cool is that? Streamlining Sales Like Never Before AI is a game-changer when it comes to cutting down on busywork. Scheduling meetings, following up on leads, keeping sales records tidy—all that can now run on autopilot, thanks to AI. This means salespeople get to focus on what really matters: connecting with customers and sealing the deal. And let's not forget about AI chatbots. These digital helpers work around the clock, answering questions and guiding customers through their buying journey, making sure no lead is left behind. Gartner predicts that by 2025, AI avatars that use text-to-video AI technology will support 70% of digital communications—a huge jump from less than 2% in 2022! Navigating The Future With Care As much as AI in sales sounds like the ultimate dream, it's important to play by the rules. Respecting customer privacy, ensuring data is handled with care and being transparent are all key to keeping this AI dream a positive reality. Looking ahead, the fusion of AI with other cool tech—including virtual reality and augmented reality—will bring about more opportunities to make the shopping experience more immersive. And as AI keeps getting smarter, the future of sales looks brighter than ever. Wrapping It Up So, here we are, standing at the brink of a new era in sales, where AI is not just an assistant but a catalyst for change. It's redefining the way businesses understand their customers and how sales teams operate, making everything more efficient, personalized and exciting. The journey of AI in transforming sales is just starting, and the opportunities are endless. For businesses ready to embrace this change, innovate and prioritize ethical AI use, the future is not just bright; it's dazzling. The revolution of the sales landscape with AI is a thrilling adventure—and honestly, we're just getting warmed up!

Exclusive: Social Security Chief Vows to Fix ‘Cruel-Hearted’ Overpayment Clawbacks The Social Security Administration’s new chief is promising to overhaul the agency’s system of clawing back billions of dollars it claims was wrongly sent to beneficiaries, saying it “just doesn’t seem right or fair.” In an interview with KFF Health News, SSA Commissioner Martin O’Malley said that in the coming days he would propose changes to help people avoid crushing debts that have driven some into homelessness and caused financial hardships for the nation’s most vulnerable — the poorest of the poor and people with disabilities or persistent medical conditions or who are at least age 65. O’Malley, who took office in December, said that “addressing the injustice we do to too many Americans because of overpayments, the rather cruel-hearted and mindless way that we recover those overpayments,” is among his top priorities. He said he has concrete steps in mind, such as establishing a statute of limitations, shifting the burden of proof to the agency, and imposing a 10% cap on clawbacks for some beneficiaries. “We do have the ability and we do have the authority to address many of these injustices,” he said, suggesting that the SSA won’t have to wait for congressional action. The pledge comes after an investigation by KFF Health News and Cox Media Group television stations revealed that SSA routinely reduces or halts monthly benefit checks to reclaim billions of dollars in payments it sent to beneficiaries then later said they should not have received. In some cases, years passed before the government discovered its mistake and then imposed debts that sometimes have reached tens of thousands of dollars on people who cannot afford to pay. KFF Health News and Cox Media Group discovered that more than 2 million people a year have been hit with overpayment demands. Most overpayments are linked to the Supplemental Security Income program, which provides money to people with little or no income, who are disabled, blind, or at least age 65. Others are connected to the Social Security Disability Insurance program, which aids disabled workers and their dependents. O’Malley said the agency plans to cease efforts to claw back years-old overpayments and halt the practice of terminating benefits for disabled workers who don’t respond to overpayment notices because they did not receive them or couldn’t make sense of them. “We’re not fulfilling congressional intent by putting seniors out of their homes and having them live under a bridge when they didn’t understand our notice,” O’Malley said. Denise Woods lives in her Chevy, seeking a safe place to sleep each night at strip malls or truck stops around Savannah, Georgia. Woods said she became homeless in 2022 after the SSA — without explanation — determined it had overpaid her and demanded she send back roughly $58,000. Woods didn’t have that amount on hand, so the agency cut off her monthly disability benefits to recoup the debt. The agency later restored some of her benefit allowance: She gets $616 a month. That’s not enough to cover rent in Savannah, where even modest studio apartments can run $1,000 a month. In January, she fell ill and landed in intensive care with pneumonia. “I signed a [Do Not Resuscitate form] and a nurse asked, ‘Do you know what this means?’” Woods said. “I told her there was no reason to revive me if my heart stops. They have already ruined my life. I’m beyond exhausted.” After KFF Health News and Cox Media Group published the series “Overpayment Outrage,” hundreds of disability beneficiaries came forward with troubling accounts, including how the government sent them overpayment notices without explanation and threatened to cut off their main source of income with little warning. Members of Congress publicly demanded that SSA fix the problems. Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon said he would meet monthly with agency officials “until it is fixed.” Sens. Gary Peters and Debbie Stabenow, both Michigan Democrats, sent a letter dated Feb. 29 to the SSA, saying many overpayments were caused by the agency. They asked officials to explain what is causing the problems. “It’s absolutely critical that the agency is accurately administering these benefits,” Peters said in written response to an interview request. “I’ve heard from too many people across Michigan who have faced financial hardship after the agency sent them incorrect payments.” The agency recovered $4.9 billion of overpayments during the 2023 fiscal year, with an additional $23 billion in overpayments still uncollected, according to its latest annual financial report. O’Malley said he wants to address overpayment clawbacks as part of a larger effort to address SSA’s “customer service crisis.” He did not provide specifics but said he anticipated plans would be implemented this year. Officials have long acknowledged that the federal disability system is dogged by lengthy delays and dysfunction. Some people become homeless or grow sicker while waiting for an initial decision on an application, which took an average of over seven months in 2023, according to a letter signed by dozens of members of Congress. O’Malley said the agency terminates disability benefits for some people who don’t contact the SSA after receiving a clawback letter. “To be honest, a lot of problems [are caused by] our notices being hard to read,” O’Malley said. “In fact, one might argue that the only thing that’s really clear about the notice is to call the 800 number.” The agency’s toll-free number, O’Malley said, is on his fix-it list, too. Callers complain of lengthy hold times and often are unable to reach an agent for help, according to congressional members, disability attorneys, and others. O’Malley pointed to a 27-year low in staffing. “We’ve been unpacking many of these customer service challenges,” he said. “There’s not one of them that hasn’t been made worse by the short staff.” Still, he said, the overpayment process is unfair. Beneficiaries often must produce evidence to show they did not receive extra money, O’Malley noted. “One would assume that in a country where people are innocent until proven guilty,” he said, “that the burden should fall more on the agency than on the unwitting beneficiary.” Advocates for the poor and disabled said they are hopeful O’Malley will stick to his commitments. “Overpayments have long plagued our clients and caused severe hardship,” said Jen Burdick, an attorney with Community Legal Services of Philadelphia, which represents clients who have received overpayment notices. “We are heartened to see that SSA’s new commissioner is taking a hard look at overpayment policy reforms and optimistic and hopeful his administration will provide these folks some long-needed relief.” Mike Pistorio is worried that change won’t come fast enough for him. A letter dated Sept. 21, 2023, that he received from the Social Security Administration says he was overpaid $9,344. The letter alleges Pistorio — a disabled 63-year-old who said he has four stents in his heart — received too much money on behalf of his children, who are now adults. Pistorio said that he doesn’t understand why he owes the government money and that the SSA has not answered his questions. He said he and his wife live in fear of being evicted from their home because they depend on his $1,266 monthly disability benefits to pay rent. “What makes me mad is none of this is my fault,” said Pistorio, who lives in Middletown, Pennsylvania, and worked as a plumber until his health faltered. “The stress of this has made my diabetes go up.” Pistorio said the agency has offered to deduct $269 a month from his benefits to pay off his debt — an amount he says he cannot afford. “I have told them ‘I will lose my housing,’” Pistorio said. David Hilzenrath of KFF Health News and Jodie Fleischer of Cox Media Group contributed to this report.

Numsa strike halted as RAF is granted an interdict The Road Accident Fund (RAF) has been granted an interdict by the labour court against the National Union of Metalworkers of SA (Numsa) strike which was expected to get under way on Thursday. The union had served the entity with a strike notice, citing alleged mismanagement by CEO Collins Letsoalo. RAF head of communications McIntosh Polela said the strike would be unprotected and unlawful. Polela said the entity will exercise its rights against anyone who participates in the unlawful strike. Numsa general secretary Irvin Jim said they would comply with the order. “Numsa is advising workers at the Road Accident Fund that the strike has been interdicted. We are calling on workers to observe the interdict because we do not want them to suffer victimisation through disciplinary action and possible dismissal.” He said the union was notified after 9pm on Wednesday that an interdict had been obtained, asserting the union was not properly served with papers and denied the opportunity to state its case. “We will do whatever is necessary to fight back against the RAF for attempting to undermine the constitutional right to strike. The interdict will not stop us from continuing to expose the rot at the RAF.” Responding on the union's allegations, Polela said changes were under way at the entity as part of the 2020-2025 strategy to turn the entity around. The changes were approved by the board and the department of transport, he said. “An attack on the CEO is unfortunate and unwarranted. The RAF is not a one-man show, it’s an organisation. It is therefore disingenuous to attack one person, Collins Letsoalo,” Polela said. TimesLIVE Would you like to comment on this article? Register (it's quick and free) or sign in now.

Is it safe to travel to Haiti now amid gang takeover? The US, UK, Ireland and Canada are advising their citizens against going to Haiti Several countries are advising their citizens against travelling to Haiti, including the US, UK, Ireland and Canada as gangs continue to take hold of the country. Earlier this month, gangs attempted to take Haiti’s Toussaint Louverture International Airport, located in Port-Au-Prince, the country’s capital and broke into a nearby port services terminal. Armed men have also stormed police stations in the country and let thousands of prisoners loose from Haiti’s National Penitentiary. Ariel Henry, who had been running the country as prime minister and acting president until he resigned on Tuesday amid international pressure, fled the country to Puerto Rico last week after he was refused entry into the Dominican Republic, which shares the island of Hispaniola with Haiti. Dominican air, land and sea borders are closed to travellers. What is the situation with airports and ports in Haiti? Flights are not arriving in the country as one of its international airports remains closed following the attacks and a decision made on Monday to form a transitional government after Mr Henry’s resignation. It is unclear if cruise ships plan to continue stopping in the country and one international port has been closed. Typically, Spirit Airlines, JetBlue Airways and American Airlines operate flights to the country but those operations have been suspended. All of the airlines have waived change fees for customers wanting to leave the country. It’s not clear when commercial flights may resume. Two cruise line companies, Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruises stop in Labadee, a private resort about six hours away from Port-Au-Prince. It’s not clear if the cruise liners plan to continue operating in the country under its current political situation. The Independent has reached out to the companies for comment. State of emergency now in place Haiti has declared a state of emergency through 3 April. A daily curfew is in place in the capital from 6pm to 5am. In a security alert released on Sunday, The US Department of State urged American citizens against travelling to the country. Activist reacts during a demonstration against CARICOM for the decision following the resignation of Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry “The current security situation in Haiti is unpredictable and dangerous,” the statement read. “We are aware that there are few or no commercial options to depart Haiti safely at this time. As they become available, we urge US citizens to take advantage of them.” US citizens currently in the country should prepare to shelter in place for an extended period of time and seek assistance from the US embassy in Port-Au-Prince. Citizens should note that the US is unable to facilitate travel out of the country. US military evacuates embassy staff Over the weekend, US military officials moved to evacuate non-essential personnel from the embassy. The German and EU embassies also took similar measures. Protesters demand the resignation of prime minister Ariel Henry in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, 7 March 2024 The UK, Irish and Canadian governments are advising their citizens against travelling to Haiti, but anyone in the country should contact their nearest diplomatic missions. The UK has an embassy in Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic’s capital. Meanwhile, Irish citizens should get in touch with the country’s embassy in Washington DC. The Canadian embassy in Port-Au-Prince is closed but citizens may call the office for emergency assistance.

The former glamour model, 30, enjoyed some retail therapy as she continues her 'feud' with sister Lauryn after it emerged that footballer Kyle Walker has fathered Lauryn's seven-month-old daughter., known only as KW. Chloe flaunted her hourglass curves in a figure-hugging brown top and a pair of cream tweed cargo pants. She gave herself an extra few inches in a pair of nude and silver studded high heels and kept her jewellery minimal.

Chloe Goodman showed off her style credentials on Wednesday, as she indulged in a shopping spree in Brighton The former glamour model, 30, flaunted her hourglass curves in a figure-hugging brown top and a pair of cream tweed cargo pants Her outing comes amid her family feud with Lauryn, 32, with it being claimed that both Chloe and their other sister Amelia, 25, have have fallen out with their sister, despite the trio once being inseparable. Their feud comes after Lauryn was thrust back into the spotlight when it emerged Kyle, 33, had fathered both of her children. The Manchester City defender was rumoured to be the biological dad of her daughter since the reality star gave birth in August, which she claimed to have welcomed with 'another footballer' - despite him being married to Annie Kilner. The footballer had already welcomed a son, Kairo, with Lauryn in 2020 during an earlier separation from Annie, and their two-year marriage is now in ruins after he confirmed he had fathered another child out of wedlock. The married couple met when they were teenagers and share three sons, with Annie currently heavily pregnant with their fourth. After the scandal broke, it was reported that Chloe and Amelia have turned their backs on Lauryn. Relations have turned frosty between the siblings in recent months, with Chloe and Amelia both unfollowing Lauryn on Instagram and scrubbing any images of her from their accounts, while Lauryn then did the same. The sisters have also made many subtle digs at one another and shared several cryptic posts, hinting at their fallout.

She insisted that he had been invited and would always be, because 'we love him will all our hearts'. However, she implied that Lauryn herself would not have been welcome at the party, by saying she had offered to take Kairo herself. Amelia penned: 'It's really upsetting that I even have to write this but some people can't help themselves but make comments online.

It read: 'Persistence and resilience only come from having been given the chance to work through difficult problems.' It comes after it was reported that Lauryn has also been given the cold shoulder by her sister Chloe's footballer fiancé, Grant Hall. The Sun claimed that the Rotherham United player, 32, wants to keep his distance from any problems between the siblings. A source told the publication: 'Grant wants to be supportive of Chloe and is upset to see how much distress all of the Lauryn and Kyle drama has caused for her. 'Earlier this week, he decided to unfollow Lauryn on Instagram and it doesn’t look like they are going to mend bridges anytime soon. 'It’s awkward for Grant too as Kyle is a fellow football player, and it’s all people are talking about in the locker room.' The source added: 'He doesn’t want anything to do with it, it’s embarrassing for the whole family.'

It’s really sad as they were so close.' Amelia also confirmed that she was not on speaking terms with Lauryn when she broke her silence on the revelations about Kyle and her sister. Taking to her Instagram Stories in January, Amelia - who works at an aesthetic and beauty clinic in Brighton - shared a series of cryptic posts as she insisted she 'isn't involved' in anything. She began by writing: 'Funny when stories are getting sold left right and centre but no one seems to be the one selling them.'

However it's been made clear through the tons of hate I am receiving that if I stay silent people seem to think I'm a part of it. 'I would like to make clear that I have never and will never be involved in this situation. I do not speak to anyone associated with it either.' While Lauryn told her side of the story in an exclusive interview with the Mail and hit back at those who label her a 'homewrecker' over her relationship with Kyle. Lauryn claimed both she and Annie are victims of his 'ego' and 'lies', as she claimed she had 'barely slept for days' following Kyle's interview last month, in which he referred to their relationship as a 'mistake'. She revealed: 'Nobody understands what it is like when a young boy points to a photo of his dad and just wants to see him. It breaks my heart. 'It was me who ended it with Kyle. If I'd wanted to, I could have continued to have a secret family together. 'But I couldn't deal with the toxicity any more, and I realised it wasn't good for my children.' The influencer broke down in tears and said: 'When will this end? I need this to end.' In a rare interview about his personal life, Kyle was close to tears as he reflected on moving away from their family home in Cheshire and spending enforced time away from his three children and Annie (pictured together) In 2020, Lauryn confirmed the father of her oldest child, son Kairo, was Kyle and the footballer broke the news to his devastated wife hours before it went public In a rare interview about his personal life, Kyle was close to tears as he reflected on moving away from their family home in Cheshire and spending enforced time away from his three children and Annie.

TORONTO, March 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CanadaHelps, the country's largest platform for donating and fundraising online, today released the results from a new Ipsos poll that suggests many generous Canadians could be missing out on the financial benefits of charitable giving this tax season. According to the poll, only 56 percent of those Canadians who made charitable contributions last year intend to claim the charitable tax receipts on their 2023 income tax returns — while almost one-third (32 percent) say they won't, and 11 percent are unsure if they will. The Ipsos poll also reveals that men (62 percent) are more likely than women (50 percent) to claim charitable donations on their 2023 income tax returns. Further, Canadians who are 55+ (61 percent) plan to maximize the taxable benefits of charitable donations this tax season more than those aged 35-54 (55 percent) and 18-34 (52 percent). “Not only is charitable giving a great way to have a positive impact on your favourite cause, Canadians can receive a charitable tax receipt which can be used to maximize federal and provincial government tax incentives and could equal up to 49 percent back through charity tax deductions,” says Duke Chang, President and CEO of CanadaHelps. “That could mean a $494 tax credit on a total of $1,000 donated in a single year in some provinces.” Tax receipts make Canadians more generous The poll finds that receiving a tax receipt for charitable donations makes a difference to Canadian donors and influences their decision to give. Nearly half (45 percent) say the ability to receive a tax credit makes them more likely to give to charities. Tax receipts are particularly attractive to younger Canadians, with 57 percent of those aged 18-34 saying it is more probable they will donate if they receive a tax receipt, compared to those who are 35-54 (48 percent) and 55+ (33 percent). According to 2020 tax filer data highlighted in the 2023 version of CanadaHelps’ Giving Report, the number of Canadians who claimed charitable tax credits was 18.4%, which dropped from 23.4% in 2010, and 29.5% in 1990 (11.1 percentage points in 30 years). More than one-third of Canadians plan their giving each year The Ipsos poll also reveals that charitable giving is not just done on a whim for more than one-third of Canadians. 35 percent say they create a budget for their annual charitable giving each year, with men (39 percent) being more likely than women (30 percent) to do so. The poll also finds that Canadians aged 18-34 (42 percent) tend to plan their annual charitable giving more than those who are 55+ (33 percent) or 35-54 (30 percent). “While charitable tax receipts provide a great incentive for Canadians to give, those who donate without claiming their contributions on their tax returns are missing an opportunity to reap the benefits that come with charitable giving,” adds Chang. “Building donations into their annual budgeting process can help Canadians optimize the financial benefits of their charitable giving, and CanadaHelps tools can be leveraged to help calculate charitable tax credits, as well as learning how to create a strategic giving plan for the year.” CanadaHelps makes charitable giving and tax claims easy In addition to making it easy to donate to any one of Canada’s 86,000 registered charities, CanadaHelps also provides instant tax receipts. Those with a CanadaHelps account do not need to keep track of receipts for their donations made to charities through CanadaHelps, they can access their charitable receipts at any time via CanadaHelps or by using CanadaHelps’ receipt download tool. Donors can also choose how they want their tax receipts – one at a time or as an aggregated, single roll-up receipt for all donations made throughout the year. A CanadaHelps account can also help Canadians create a strategic giving plan for the year – including setting up a monthly gift that is more manageable for their budget, and determining giving goals for the year – so they can maximize the taxable benefits of charitable giving. About the Ipsos Poll These are some of the findings of an Ipsos poll conducted between March 1 and 5, 2024 on behalf of Canadahelps.org. For this survey, a sample of 1,000 Canadians aged 18+ were interviewed online. Weighting was then employed to balance demographics to ensure that the sample's composition reflects that of the adult population according to Census data and to provide results intended to approximate the sample universe. The precision of Ipsos online polls is measured using a credibility interval. In this case, the poll is accurate to within ±3.5 percentage points, 19 times out of 20, had all Canadians aged 18+ been polled. The credibility interval will be wider among subsets of the population. All sample surveys and polls may be subject to other sources of error, including, but not limited to coverage error, and measurement error. About CanadaHelps CanadaHelps is a public foundation advancing philanthropy through technology. For Canadians, it powers CanadaHelps.org, a safe and trusted destination for discovering and supporting any charity in Canada, and UniteforChange.com, where Canadians can learn about causes and easily support the collective work of charities addressing a cause they care about.

Whether you’re a music fan or not, you’ve likely come across Taylor Swift on social media, the news, the radio or really any other platform. And there’s a good reason for that—excellent marketing. Intentionally and maybe sometimes unintentionally, Swift and her team have created a massive community of loyal followers and unmatched hype and buzz, especially in recent years. Many other music legends have leveraged similar star power to build unbeatable personal brands—so what can companies learn from these artists for their own brands? Below, the communications and marketing experts of Forbes Communications Council weigh in on the top lessons they think companies can learn from Taylor Swift and other influential musical artists and the reasons why these tips are so effective. Their marketing secrets may not be as difficult to implement as you may think. 1. Build A Strong Connection With Your Fans Taylor Swift's genius is the connection she built with her fans from the beginning—allowing them in and letting them be a part of her story and journey. If she were a company, the fans would be more than just employees or shareholders; they feel like her co-founders. That coupled with her authenticity and ability to weave a cohesive and concurrent story makes everything feel fresh and urgent. - Nina Mehta, MIT Technology Review 2. Know You Can't (And Won't) Please Everyone Understand your audience and stakeholders and then curate content, experiences and products for them. Make what you offer interesting, engaging and worth buying. And last but not least, "haters gonna hate." You can't and shouldn't please everyone. Chasing total acceptance is the surest way to win the race to mediocrity. - Eric Brown, JumpCloud 3. Create Anticipation Through Intentional Moments It's partially the anticipation artists build and the moments they create. Taylor's The Eras Tour streaming release dropped on her birthday (December 13) and the cost was, of course, $19.89 (like the album). Fans scrambled to ask their parents for it—believe me, I know! While accepting her 13th Grammy, she teased a new album to be released in April. Debatable if that was the right time, but it was a moment—and genius. - Chris Cradduck, LDWW 4. Figure Out What Makes Your Brand Unique The common thread among influential musical artists is how uniquely they stand out in their industry. For that reason, influential artists (like Michael Jackson, Prince and Bob Marley) possessed a standout uniqueness in their personal brands (including their personal style and performance signature). The lesson? For a brand to be influential, it must be able to uniquely stand out. - Kerry-Ann Betton Stimpson, JMMB Group 5. Stay Authentic To Who You Are Authenticity is the key driver. Artists and brands alike will find they can drive a more deep, meaningful connection when they are most true to their authentic selves. That connection is what keeps fans and customers coming back to engage because it inevitably adds value to their lives in some way. - Maggie Mistovich, TextUs 6. Use The Four P's Keep it simple. Use the four P's: product, premium, promotion and price. If your product is amazing, like Taylor Swift, and you promote creatively and effectively, such as using the NFL as a channel, the price you charge will move toward a premium. - Doug Vinson, Secuvy Inc. 7. Find Your Truth And Meaning Artists can teach us a lot about marketing. Influential musical artists are authentic. They thrive on fully expressing their ideas. We advise clients that you cannot message yourself out of a problem or into an aspiration. Find the truth and meaning first. This kind of authentic approach, similar to how an artist digs deep for inspiration, goes a long way in establishing relevance and trust. - Rachel Kule, Pursuit PR 8. Take A Proactive Approach To Relevance Demonstrating agility, Swift carefully orchestrates long-term plans, strategically teasing releases to engage her audience interactively. This underscores the importance for businesses to adapt and refine their brand, matching evolving market dynamics for continued relevance. A proactive mindset, embracing agility, leads to greater profitability when compared to a reactive approach. - Emily Burroughs, BGSF Forbes Communications Council is an invitation-only community for executives in successful public relations, media strategy, creative and advertising agencies. Do I qualify? 9. Walk Beside Your Customers Rather Than Selling The most influential musical artists have a vision and a platform. They have a team that can properly articulate that vision, sharing their values and beliefs in a way that resonates and connects with fans. A brand can apply this to their own marketing by simplifying their message and working to be an empathetic ally that walks beside someone to solve a challenge rather than simply selling something. - Tiffany Staples, Celebrus 10. Build And Nurture Your Own Community Taylor Swift is a master marketer because she has one focus: her fans. She makes them feel like they're a part of her inner circle. Brands can learn from this by focusing on their own community of "Swifties" and creating unique experiences that will not only get people talking, but that will also make others want to be a part of that inner circle too. - Kathy Sucich, Dimensional Insight 11. Let Your Brand Speak For Itself Brands can learn a lot from Taylor Swift. Most of all, the lesson is that authenticity wins. She doesn’t take herself too seriously, and she doesn’t get caught up in how people interpret her life. She just lives. Brands tend to overthink every nuance of their campaigns. In reality, they should focus on the things that are most authentic and let those speak for themselves. - Layla Kasha, Grocery Outlet 12. Create A Sense Of Mystery And Intrigue When analyzing the marketing of the most influential artists, you’ll find they all have something in common: mystery. Creating some intrigue and not giving your customers all the answers at once can be a great way to keep people interested and returning to your brand. Holding back can create more suspense and get your client asking questions, allowing you to answer and put your brand in the right light. - Sarah Lero, A.L. Huber 13. Tell Genuine, Relatable Stories Taylor Swift captivates fans with genuine stories, earning loyalty through unique, relatable experiences. Prioritizing authenticity, she nurtures a welcoming community, showing real connections can lift a brand to legendary status. This underscores the power of personal engagement and inclusivity in crafting a lasting legacy. - Cord Himelstein, HALO 14. Invest In The Brand Experience Emotional connections are lasting connections. This is why it's so important to invest in the brand experience. When competitors enter your space or product friction occurs, brand connections hold companies and their customers together. - Nat Lennox, Nat Lennox 15. Embrace Innovation And Adaptability Authenticity comes first. Swift’s heartfelt, relatable persona shows the value of building a genuine brand that audiences can trust and connect with. However, her continuous reinvention of her musical style and her willingness to experiment show how important adaptability is too. Marketers need to stay agile and embrace creative innovation, not just stick with what worked in the past. - Alyssa Kopelman, Healthline Media

Exclusive: Social Security Chief Vows to Fix ‘Cruel-Hearted’ Overpayment Clawbacks The Social Security Administration’s new chief is promising to overhaul the agency’s system of clawing back billions of dollars it claims was wrongly sent to beneficiaries, saying it “just doesn’t seem right or fair.” In an interview with KFF Health News, SSA Commissioner Martin O’Malley said that in the coming days he would propose changes to help people avoid crushing debts that have driven some into homelessness and caused financial hardships for the nation’s most vulnerable — the poorest of the poor and people with disabilities or persistent medical conditions or who are at least age 65. O’Malley, who took office in December, said that “addressing the injustice we do to too many Americans because of overpayments, the rather cruel-hearted and mindless way that we recover those overpayments,” is among his top priorities. He said he has concrete steps in mind, such as establishing a statute of limitations, shifting the burden of proof to the agency, and imposing a 10% cap on clawbacks for some beneficiaries. “We do have the ability and we do have the authority to address many of these injustices,” he said, suggesting that the SSA won’t have to wait for congressional action. The pledge comes after an investigation by KFF Health News and Cox Media Group television stations revealed that SSA routinely reduces or halts monthly benefit checks to reclaim billions of dollars in payments it sent to beneficiaries then later said they should not have received. In some cases, years passed before the government discovered its mistake and then imposed debts that sometimes have reached tens of thousands of dollars on people who cannot afford to pay. KFF Health News and Cox Media Group discovered that more than 2 million people a year have been hit with overpayment demands. Most overpayments are linked to the Supplemental Security Income program, which provides money to people with little or no income, who are disabled, blind, or at least age 65. Others are connected to the Social Security Disability Insurance program, which aids disabled workers and their dependents. O’Malley said the agency plans to cease efforts to claw back years-old overpayments and halt the practice of terminating benefits for disabled workers who don’t respond to overpayment notices because they did not receive them or couldn’t make sense of them. “We’re not fulfilling congressional intent by putting seniors out of their homes and having them live under a bridge when they didn’t understand our notice,” O’Malley said. Denise Woods lives in her Chevy, seeking a safe place to sleep each night at strip malls or truck stops around Savannah, Georgia. Woods said she became homeless in 2022 after the SSA — without explanation — determined it had overpaid her and demanded she send back roughly $58,000. Woods didn’t have that amount on hand, so the agency cut off her monthly disability benefits to recoup the debt. The agency later restored some of her benefit allowance: She gets $616 a month. That’s not enough to cover rent in Savannah, where even modest studio apartments can run $1,000 a month. In January, she fell ill and landed in intensive care with pneumonia. “I signed a [Do Not Resuscitate form] and a nurse asked, ‘Do you know what this means?’” Woods said. “I told her there was no reason to revive me if my heart stops. They have already ruined my life. I’m beyond exhausted.” After KFF Health News and Cox Media Group published the series “Overpayment Outrage,” hundreds of disability beneficiaries came forward with troubling accounts, including how the government sent them overpayment notices without explanation and threatened to cut off their main source of income with little warning. Members of Congress publicly demanded that SSA fix the problems. Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon said he would meet monthly with agency officials “until it is fixed.” Sens. Gary Peters and Debbie Stabenow, both Michigan Democrats, sent a letter dated Feb. 29 to the SSA, saying many overpayments were caused by the agency. They asked officials to explain what is causing the problems. “It’s absolutely critical that the agency is accurately administering these benefits,” Peters said in written response to an interview request. “I’ve heard from too many people across Michigan who have faced financial hardship after the agency sent them incorrect payments.” The agency recovered $4.9 billion of overpayments during the 2023 fiscal year, with an additional $23 billion in overpayments still uncollected, according to its latest annual financial report. O’Malley said he wants to address overpayment clawbacks as part of a larger effort to address SSA’s “customer service crisis.” He did not provide specifics but said he anticipated plans would be implemented this year. Officials have long acknowledged that the federal disability system is dogged by lengthy delays and dysfunction. Some people become homeless or grow sicker while waiting for an initial decision on an application, which took an average of over seven months in 2023, according to a letter signed by dozens of members of Congress. O’Malley said the agency terminates disability benefits for some people who don’t contact the SSA after receiving a clawback letter. “To be honest, a lot of problems [are caused by] our notices being hard to read,” O’Malley said. “In fact, one might argue that the only thing that’s really clear about the notice is to call the 800 number.” The agency’s toll-free number, O’Malley said, is on his fix-it list, too. Callers complain of lengthy hold times and often are unable to reach an agent for help, according to congressional members, disability attorneys, and others. O’Malley pointed to a 27-year low in staffing. “We’ve been unpacking many of these customer service challenges,” he said. “There’s not one of them that hasn’t been made worse by the short staff.” Still, he said, the overpayment process is unfair. Beneficiaries often must produce evidence to show they did not receive extra money, O’Malley noted. “One would assume that in a country where people are innocent until proven guilty,” he said, “that the burden should fall more on the agency than on the unwitting beneficiary.” Advocates for the poor and disabled said they are hopeful O’Malley will stick to his commitments. “Overpayments have long plagued our clients and caused severe hardship,” said Jen Burdick, an attorney with Community Legal Services of Philadelphia, which represents clients who have received overpayment notices. “We are heartened to see that SSA’s new commissioner is taking a hard look at overpayment policy reforms and optimistic and hopeful his administration will provide these folks some long-needed relief.” Mike Pistorio is worried that change won’t come fast enough for him. A letter dated Sept. 21, 2023, that he received from the Social Security Administration says he was overpaid $9,344. The letter alleges Pistorio — a disabled 63-year-old who said he has four stents in his heart — received too much money on behalf of his children, who are now adults. Pistorio said that he doesn’t understand why he owes the government money and that the SSA has not answered his questions. He said he and his wife live in fear of being evicted from their home because they depend on his $1,266 monthly disability benefits to pay rent. “What makes me mad is none of this is my fault,” said Pistorio, who lives in Middletown, Pennsylvania, and worked as a plumber until his health faltered. “The stress of this has made my diabetes go up.” Pistorio said the agency has offered to deduct $269 a month from his benefits to pay off his debt — an amount he says he cannot afford. “I have told them ‘I will lose my housing,’” Pistorio said.

The TV chef, who found fame alongside his friend Si King as part of the motorcycle-riding cooking duo, died last Wednesday after being treated for cancer for the past couple of years. In the latest episode of The Hairy Bikers Go West, Dave, along with co-host Si, took their signature motorcycles to explore the food of Western Britain. They visited Newport and Bristol, taking in diverse foods from several different cultures. Watching this is tough.

CMO at Nord Security, one of the leaders in providing digital security and privacy solutions for individuals and businesses. Let's face it: In the shifting world of marketing, AI has become a buzzword. The topic dominates conversations, floods LinkedIn feeds and pops up in almost every tech webinar. With each new conversation, it becomes more evident that AI technology has the potential to significantly impact marketing's future. Over the years, I have seen machine learning develop, and its potential made me an early believer in the prospect of AI. It seems that the explosion of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and image generators like Midjourney and Dall-E have made other marketers believers, too. A survey from Mailchimp found that almost 90% of marketers believe that their organization must increase the usage of AI to stay competitive. An Influencer Marketing Hub survey found that more than 60% of marketers have used AI in their marketing activities. But here's the thing—if you are in the thick of marketing, it's becoming increasingly challenging to pinpoint what AI could really mean for you. How do we sift through the hype to find actionable uses of AI that can truly enhance our marketing efforts? Let's explore the practical side of AI in marketing to cut through the buzz and find where technology and creativity can meet. Expanding Marketing Horizons For the majority of businesses, the golden rule is to do more with less, and AI tools are pivotal in making this happen, especially in marketing. Luckily, some AI concepts are not just buzzwords but practical applications that broaden the potential of marketing. Consider image creation—a critical element in digital marketing. AI tools like Midjourney or Dall-E transform this task. Instead of spending countless hours or a significant budget on custom visuals, organizations can now generate a multitude of accurate images quickly and efficiently. This is a game-changer for marketing campaigns, where visual uniqueness often drives engagement. However, it's not all smooth sailing. AI-generated images sometimes require fine-tuning to meet specific standards, but the speed and customization the tools offer often outweigh this inconvenience. This is especially true when conventional stock images aren’t applicable. Beyond image creation, AI tools like Crayon and MarketMuse are reshaping market research and content strategy. Crayon tracks market trends and competitor activities, providing insights that can shape more effective marketing strategies. MarketMuse, on the other hand, uses AI to optimize content for SEO, ensuring that your content ranks higher and reaches a broader audience. Streamlining Marketing Processes In the fast-paced world of marketing, effectiveness is key, and AI tools are playing a crucial role in streamlining marketing tasks. Let's examine how these tools are making a difference in the day-to-day operations of marketing teams. First, consider the task of preparing visuals, a staple activity in marketing. Tools like Remove.bg and LetsEnhance.io are transforming this space: • Remove.bg automates the background removal process, a task that typically consumes hours of manual effort. Reducing this task to mere seconds per image helped save our team an estimated 30 hours a month. • LetsEnhance.io enhances image resolution using AI. This means that images that were previously unusable due to low quality can now be brought up to standard. In a world dominated by smartphones with crisp resolutions, high-quality visuals are the default expectation, so my team has found this tool invaluable. Moving on to content creation, AI tools like ChatGPT assist in generating content ideas and drafting initial outlines. This ability helps marketing teams overcome the daunting blank-page syndrome. It's particularly useful in creating SEO-optimized content, helping authors make sure that the content not only resonates with the audience but also performs well in search engine rankings. The integration of these AI tools into marketing workflows is creating a more efficient, productive environment. They're enabling teams to focus on creative and strategic tasks by taking over the repetitive, time-consuming parts of the job. Practical Tools Complement Marketing The AI future promises extraordinary leaps in marketing. That's evident even in the current early-adoption stage. Currently, marketers can choose from many different AI, but tools and software are just one side of the coin. Before marketing teams approach AI technology, there's plenty of homework to be done. Whether or not you end up using AI software, it's good to audit your internal marketing processes and identify all tasks that can be automated. That, however, does not mean that all monotonous tasks will be. Still, it's a good start on improving effectiveness and ensuring that creative resources are happily spent on creative challenges. It could also be a good idea to track the effectiveness of automated tasks from various perspectives. For example, some visual automation processes can significantly shorten the time it takes to produce an illustration, but if dedicated illustrators still need to check for visual artifacts, maybe some better way to optimize could be found. AI tools offer substantial value in streamlining processes and broadening creativity. They enable marketers to focus on more strategic aspects of their work, leaving the repetitive and time-consuming tasks to AI. As the technology continues to evolve, the buzz will grow louder. But underneath this noise exist practical AI tools that are opening new horizons and opportunities for marketers in every industry.

The World Press Photo Exhibition returns to London A community news update from your area (Image: Jonas Kako) The World Press Photo Exhibition is returning to London after a seven-year hiatus. The World Press Photo Contest is the world's most prestigious photo competition and will showcase the best and most important photojournalism and documentary photography from around the world. The event's purpose is to connect the world to the stories that matter. Viewers are invited to step outside of the news cycle and think critically about important topics across the globe, whilst developing and nurturing mutual understanding, with accurate, diverse, high-quality visual stories that benefit us all. The World Press Photo Foundation was founded in 1955 and its annual photo contest has showcased the best photojournalism and documentary photography of the previous year to millions across the globe ever since. Each year, the exhibition travels to over 60 cities in more than 40 countries worldwide. Woody Anderson, the London Exhibition director, said: "In the realm of visual storytelling, World Press Photo stands at the forefront of its art, beckoning its audience into the reality inhabited by the subjects in each image. The unparalleled virtuosity and often perilous pursuit of capturing the photos position this exhibition at the vanguard of global photojournalism, occupying the very frontline of narrative impact. "The exhibition not only sparks emotion, it also kindles a collective consciousness, whilst vividly illuminating the most paramount news stories of our time. The exhibition's prolonged absence from the capital has been a significant omission from the city's cultural calendar." Joumana El Zein Khoury, executive director of the World Press Photo Foundation, said: "In overcoming numerous obstacles, the return of the exhibition to London, a global cultural hub, marks a triumphant moment. We are delighted that World Press Photo Exhibition is once again firmly reinstated in the capital, poised to become a fixture for many years to come. "London and the entire nation can once again embrace the full splendour of the World Press Photo Exhibition at its new home at Borough Yards." This year, the World Press Photo Exhibition will be opening at Borough Yards, a cultural destination at the epicentre of London Bridge's creative scene. Situated underneath beautifully restored Victorian railway arches and surrounded by cultural landmarks such as Tate Modern, the destination is perfectly positioned to host this important photography exhibition. Lily Lin, UK managing director for Borough Yards' owner MARK, said: "Located in the heart of London Bridge, Borough Yards is a hub of cultural activity. Hosting the World Press Photo Exhibition is a fantastic opportunity for the destination. "Alongside the successful immersive exhibition, Delight, which brings together the historic and modern-day culture of Seoul, and the Mobile Art Disco gallery, this exhibition will add another dimension to Borough Yard's cultural offering. We're thrilled to be able to welcome the exhibition to the area." The 67th World Press Photo Contest 2024 received 61,062 entries by 3,581 photographers from 130 countries with 31 professionals from around the world spending six weeks reviewing this year's submissions. The regional winners of the 2024 contest will be announced on April 3 at 10am and the global winners on April 18 at 10am, ahead of the exhibition in London which opens its doors on May 3. The 2024 World Press Photo Contest works with six worldwide regions - Africa, Asia, Europe, North and Central America, South America, and Southeast Asia and Oceania. Entries were judged in the region in which they have been taken. Each region has four format-based categories: Singles, Stories, Long-Term Projects and Open Format. These categories welcome entries that witness or document news moments, events and/or aftermaths, as well as social, political and environmental issues or solutions. The exhibition has a limited run from Friday, May 3 to Monday, May 27 at Borough Yards, Dirty Lane, London SE1 9AD. Tickets are available here with prices starting from £5.

Pothole accident: government found liable for damages A civil engineer with a good driving record won the right to claim damages from the North West roads department after sustaining injuries in a crash caused by a pothole. Petrus Jacobs was travelling on a gravel road between Klerksdorp and Ventersdorp, which connects Opraap and Sterkstroom, in April 2018. This road is used if there are roadworks on the main road or the main road is inaccessible, the Mahikeng high court heard. Jacobs called several witnesses who testified there were multiple potholes on the road. Some were about 20mm to 30mm deep and 500mm wide. Previous complaints were made to local authorities about the condition of the road but these went unheeded. He lost control of his vehicle after driving directly into one of the potholes, colliding with a tree on the side of the road. He sustained various fractures, contusion of the lungs, soft tissue injuries and injuries to his lungs. This was despite driving at a moderate 80km/h with his vehicle and tyres in good condition. There were no visible warning signs. Jacobs argued the department has a legal duty maintain the road, keep it in a state of good repair and ensure the safety of road users. The department, represented by the MEC's office, did not call witnesses and failed to gainsay those who testified for Jacobs, judge Sandisiwe Mfenyana found. Instead, it proferred a bare denial and argued the accident could have been caused by the negligence of the motorist by failing to keep a proper lookout, driving at an excessive speed and failing to avoid the accident when he could have done so. Jacobs disputed this, saying he was a cautious driver who had not received any traffic fines. On whether he should have kept a proper lookout, the judge said this should be viewed against the information available to him at the time of the accident and the evidence to court was there were no road signs. “The picture painted by [his] witnesses is that the road was in a state of disrepair with no signs erected to warn road users of any hazard and speed limits. The photographic evidence presented is proof of this. This evidence remains unchallenged as the [department] opted not to call a corresponding expert to counter the evidence.” She ruled the department was negligent in failing to maintain the road and keep it in a state of repair. As a result, it is liable for 100% of Jacobs' proven or agreed damages. TimesLIVE Would you like to comment on this article? Register (it's quick and free) or sign in now.

Vietnam Tourism Market Sets Ambitious Goal: Aiming for US$ 135,000 Million by 2033 | FMI Posted on 2024-03-13 by Future Market Insights in Internet & Online // 0 Comments According to Future Market Insights’ most recent research, the Vietnam tourism market is predicted to generate US$ 27,500 million in sales by the end of 2023. Long-term estimates place tourism’s value at around US$ 135,000 million in 2033. National parks, heritage sites and beaches are the major attractions for tourists who visit Vietnam. The local Vietnamese tour operators also arrange bicycle tours, photography tours, kayak trips and even tours of neighbouring countries such as Laos, Cambodia and Thailand. Vietnam’s economy has recently transformed from an agrarian to a service economy and tourism has become one of the important elements of the modern Vietnamese economy. The annual arrivals of tourists have been rising since last few years. Considering this, Vietnam’s tourism board which is known as National Administration of Tourism has decided to diversify the tourism industry to bring in more foreign exchange in the country. Gain In-Depth Knowledge with a Report Sample Request: https://www.futuremarketinsights.com/reports/sample/rep-vn-3024 Vietnam Tourism: Sector Forecast and Spend Analysis – Drivers and restraints Vietnam is inexpensive. It is one of the cheapest countries not only in Southeast Asia but in the entire world. The value of Vietnam’s currency ‘dong’ is extremely low. For instance, one US dollar is around 22,000 Vietnamese dong. Naturally, even luxurious hotels or guest houses, food and internal travelling is very much affordable for foreign tourists. This is the most important factor driving the growth of Vietnam tourism. Another major factor is that tourists from few countries have visa exemption in Vietnam. South Korean and Japanese tourists can enjoy 15 days visa exemption in Vietnam. The visa application process is extremely simple for US and Australian citizens too; and consequently, a large number of tourists prefer to visit Vietnam over other countries. The Vietnam government has realised tourism to be a key to its future prosperity and is now accordingly implementing appropriate strategies and policies to transform Vietnam into a leading tourism destination in Asia. However, poor public infrastructure, inadequate business laws and lack of investment funds from foreign investors are hampering the growth of the tourism sector in Vietnam. Vietnam Tourism: Sector Forecast and Spend Analysis – Future Projections There is robust development in the future of Vietnam’s tourism. Apart from tourism campaigning by the government, an arrangement of various trade fairs and roadshows will play a vital part to encourage tourism growth in Vietnam. Vietnam offers visa-free travel to the citizens of seven countries – Japan, South Korea, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Sweden and Russia. Such policies are likely to boost the growth of the Vietnam tourism industry. https://www.futuremarketinsights.com/request-report-methodology/rep-vn-3024 According to the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), the share of the travel and tourism sector to the GDP of Vietnam in 2015 was VND 279,287.0 billion (6.6% of GDP). This is projected to increase by 5.2% to VND 293,772.0 billion in 2016.

Nick Knowles, 61, and his fiancée Katie Dadzie hold hands as they arrive at star-studded day three of Cheltenham Festival Nick Knowles and his fiancée Katie Dadzie walked hand-in-hand as they attended day three of Cheltenham Festival on Thursday. The DIY SOS presenter, 61, who proposed to Katie, 33, in New Orleans in July, looked happier than ever with his wife-to-be. She put on a stylish display in a burgundy wool coat with gold buttons, that she teamed with a pair of heeled boots. Katie styled her look with a green patterned silk scarf and a matching leather handbag, before pinning her hair back with a black bow. Nick opted for a smart navy blue suit with a white shirt, colourful tie and a brown wax jacket layered over the top. Nick Knowles, 61, and his fiancée Katie Dadzie, 33, walked hand-in-hand as they attended day three of Cheltenham Festival on Thursday The DIY SOS presenter, who proposed to Katie, in New Orleans in July, looked happier than ever with his wife-to-be Joining the couple at the hotly-anticipated event was Georgia Toffolo, 29, who put her best fashion foot forward in a tan coat. The TV personality added a high-neck jumper and a bright red satin skirt underneath with a matching headband. James Nesbitt was also in attendance, wearing a checkered coat with a navy blue sweater and trousers. Elsewhere, Josie Gibson and Sam Thompson were seen fooling around as they attended day three of Cheltenham Festival. The former I'm A Celebrity campmates have reunited to report on the races for ITV's This Morning. Arriving at the racecourse, Sam, 31, wore a fun jockey hat, complete with googles and a whip as he posed for photos with his co-star, 39. Josie could barely contain her laughter as the radio presenter got into character and pretended to ride an imaginary horse. Putting on a stylish display, she opted for a long khaki coat with a white blouse and knee high suede boots.

Meanwhile, Sam wore a blue suit with a white shirt, navy tie and brown suede shoes for the event. Cheltenham Festival punters faced 'absolute bedlam' when trying to leave the racecourse when heavy rain created traffic chaos on the event's opening day. Torrential downpours and boggy fields caused a nightmare in the festival car parks, as thousands tried to head home at the end of a thrilling day of racing. Vehicles got stuck in the heavy mud, creating queues of up to two hours on the opening day of the four-day event. Those arriving to watch today's racing are also likely to encounter travel problems, as images from this morning have shown tractors pulling trapped cars out of the thick mud after more heavy showers fell overnight. More than 60,000 supporters attended the opening day of the prestigious 164-year-old racing meet and swarmed the course's grandstand, betting rings and Guinness Village. Rain was expected to fall throughout this week, but last night's downpours were significantly heavier than what was forecast, leading to today's Glenfarclas Cross-County Chase being postponed. Arriving at the racecourse, Sam, 31, wore a fun jockey hat, complete with googles and a whip as he posed for photos with his co-star, 39 The radio presenter got into character and pretended to ride an imaginary horse Josie could barely contain her laughter Putting on a stylish display, she opted for a long khaki coat with a white blouse and knee high suede boots Josie topped off her look with a fedora hat from Hicks and Brown and a silk scarf, styling her hair into glamorous curls Meanwhile, Sam wore a blue suit with a white shirt, navy tie and brown suede shoes for the event More than 60,000 supporters attended the opening day of the prestigious 164-year-old racing meet and swarmed the course's grandstand, betting rings and Guinness Village The race is run on a different track to other races at the festival and does not drain as well. The track had expected 2-4mm of rain overnight but 6mm has already fallen - and another 6mm is forecast on the way. A Cheltenham spokesperson said: "Following 11mm of rainfall throughout yesterday, there has been no improvement in the conditions on the Cross Country Course and with areas of the track unraceable, the Cross Country Chase has sadly been abandoned. "The forecast for the remainder of the week continues to look unsettled, with further showers likely on both Thursday and Friday. "There will therefore be insufficient improvement to the Cross Country Course by Friday, and the decision has been taken not to reschedule the race."

“Time keeps on slippin, slippin, slippin … into the future.” Do you recognize that 1976 song lyric by the Steve Miller Band? Whether or not you do might depend on your generation. (Sorry, Gen Xers. You’re now going to have “Fly Like an Eagle” running through your head all day.) But there’s a lot more to a generation than the music they listened to as teens. Roughly every 15 to 18 years, another cohort of people is shaped based on the current events of their childhood and early adulthood. The Pew Research Center released definitions of each generation in 2019, but that guidance ended with Gen Z. Since then, the generation after Z has emerged a little more clearly: Generation Alpha, or kids born between 2010 and 2025, is now the latest and therefore included here. Read on to learn where each generation begins and ends, plus some details about their lives. How Old Is the Silent Generation? Those in the Silent Generation were born between 1928 and 1945, currently making them 79-96 years old. There are an estimated 50 million of them, and famous members include Paul McCartney, Joe Biden, Harrison Ford, Joni Mitchell and Barbra Streisand. This generation was shaped by World War II and the Great Depression — experiences that inspired stoic optimism, a sense of patriotism and traditional family values. They’ve lived most of their lives before before the advent of technology like computers and smartphones. MORE: ‘Granny Pods’ let your aging parents live in your backyard In a survey conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, various generations were asked if they were “concerned or extremely concerned” with their own mental health. While 58% of millennials and 56% of Generation Z said yes, only 23% of the Silent Generation reported feeling this way. So, they’d either learned better coping mechanisms, or they really lived up to their “Silent” Generation reputation for not complaining! How Old Are Baby Boomers? Those in the baby boomer generation were born between 1946 and 1964, making them 60 to 78 years old today. They got their name from being born during the post-World War II “baby boom,” an 18-year period with an elevated birth rate. There are 75 million of them, and famous members include Oprah Winfrey, Samuel L. Jackson, Tom Cruise and Bill and Hillary Clinton. Boomers lived through their own slate of formative social and political events, including the Cold War, the Vietnam War, the Civil Rights Movement and the space race. MORE: This city ranks first for retirement with baby boomers They’ve been called the “me generation” for being more self-centered than the Silent Generation, but they were also seen as the “flower generation” — agents of social change for women and minorities. How Old Is Generation X? Those in Generation X were born between 1965 and 1980, making them 44 to 59 years old today. They got their name from Douglas Coupland’s satirical 1991 novel, “Generation X: Tales for An Accelerated Culture,” about the generation following the boomers. There are about 65 million of them, and famous members include Julia Roberts, Kurt Cobain, Kobe Bryant, Jennifer Aniston and Snoop Dogg. In the early ’90s when this generation got its name, its members were known as being “slackers” who were jaded and irreverent. Movies like “Reality Bites” and “The Breakfast Club” helped perpetuate this stereotype, but Gen Xers have also come to be known as resourceful and self-reliant. Some influential events that shaped this generation were the Challenger disaster, Operation Desert Storm and the rise of the personal computer. How Old Are Millennials? Millennials were born between 1981 and 1996, currently making them 28 to 43 years old. They got their name from the 1991 book, “Generations,” by historians Neil Howe and William Strauss, who tagged them “millennials” because they would graduate high school in 2000. As of July 2022, there are 72 million millennials, and famous members include Taylor Swift, Michael Phelps, Beyoncé and Mark Zuckerberg. According to Pew Research Center, millennials are more racially and ethnically diverse than previous American generations. When this generation was coming of age, the prevailing parenting idea was that every child should receive a trophy. As a result, older generations have accused millennials of a sense of entitlement. But millennials are also known for their idealism and a desire to pursue meaningful work over monetary gain. And having grown up with smartphones and personal computers, they also have an intuitive comfort with and knowledge of technology. How Old Is Generation Z? Members of Generation Z were born between 1997 and 2012, making them 12 to 27 years old. There are 69.5 million of them, and famous members include Greta Thunberg, Lil Nas X, Billie Eilish and Tom Holland. Gen Z are today’s teens and young adults, and as the first generation to have grown up with smartphones, they are extremely tech-savvy. They’re often referred to as “digital natives” since they’ve grown up with the internet at their fingertips. This generation has fueled the rise of social media platforms like TikTok, and as a result they are very knowledgeable about trends in music, film, fashion, sports and pop culture. Perhaps because of the widespread exposure to others through social media, members of Generation Z tend to reject stereotypes and are very open to expressions of individual truth. Nearly a third of Gen Z adults identity as LGBTQ. They are also the most ethnically diverse generation in history, with more than 48% being nonwhite. But this generation also struggles more than others with mental health challenges. According to Fast Company, 70% of Gen Zers revealed that their mental health could use more attention compared to other health concerns. This could also mean that they are more willing or able to identify issues like anxiety and depression. How Old Is Generation Alpha? Members of Generation Alpha were born in the early 2010s through 2025, making them newborns to about 11 years old. You may note that, yes, Gen Alpha being defined as 2010 onward overlaps with Gen Z, which is said to end at 2012. This is because these two generations haven’t all reached adulthood yet, and therefore the boundaries in either direction are still a little fuzzy. Gen Alpha’s parents are typically members of Generation Y (millennials), and Gen Alpha kiddos tend to be the younger siblings of Generation Z. Mark McCrindle, of the consultancy firm McCrindle Research, named them Alpha after the first letter of the Greek alphabet, because they were the first whole generation to be born into the 21st century. They’ve also been dubbed the “Polars” by the psychology professor Jean Twenge, author of “Generations: The Real Differences Between Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X, Boomers, and Silentsâand What They Mean for America’s Future.” Polars is a reference to the two major issues this generation will grapple with: political polarization and the melting polar ice caps (as well as other climate change fall-out). Does your generation’s description sound right to you?

Exclusive: Social Security Chief Vows to Fix ‘Cruel-Hearted’ Overpayment Clawbacks The Social Security Administration’s new chief is promising to overhaul the agency’s system of clawing back billions of dollars it claims was wrongly sent to beneficiaries, saying it “just doesn’t seem right or fair.” In an interview with KFF Health News, SSA Commissioner Martin O’Malley said that in the coming days he would propose changes to help people avoid crushing debts that have driven some into homelessness and caused financial hardships for the nation’s most vulnerable — the poorest of the poor and people with disabilities or persistent medical conditions or who are at least age 65. O’Malley, who took office in December, said that “addressing the injustice we do to too many Americans because of overpayments, the rather cruel-hearted and mindless way that we recover those overpayments,” is among his top priorities. He said he has concrete steps in mind, such as establishing a statute of limitations, shifting the burden of proof to the agency, and imposing a 10% cap on clawbacks for some beneficiaries. “We do have the ability and we do have the authority to address many of these injustices,” he said, suggesting that the SSA won’t have to wait for congressional action. The pledge comes after an investigation by KFF Health News and Cox Media Group television stations revealed that SSA routinely reduces or halts monthly benefit checks to reclaim billions of dollars in payments it sent to beneficiaries then later said they should not have received. In some cases, years passed before the government discovered its mistake and then imposed debts that sometimes have reached tens of thousands of dollars on people who cannot afford to pay. KFF Health News and Cox Media Group discovered that more than 2 million people a year have been hit with overpayment demands. Most overpayments are linked to the Supplemental Security Income program, which provides money to people with little or no income, who are disabled, blind, or at least age 65. Others are connected to the Social Security Disability Insurance program, which aids disabled workers and their dependents. O’Malley said the agency plans to cease efforts to claw back years-old overpayments and halt the practice of terminating benefits for disabled workers who don’t respond to overpayment notices because they did not receive them or couldn’t make sense of them. “We’re not fulfilling congressional intent by putting seniors out of their homes and having them live under a bridge when they didn’t understand our notice,” O’Malley said. Denise Woods lives in her Chevy, seeking a safe place to sleep each night at strip malls or truck stops around Savannah, Georgia. Woods said she became homeless in 2022 after the SSA — without explanation — determined it had overpaid her and demanded she send back roughly $58,000. Woods didn’t have that amount on hand, so the agency cut off her monthly disability benefits to recoup the debt. The agency later restored some of her benefit allowance: She gets $616 a month. That’s not enough to cover rent in Savannah, where even modest studio apartments can run $1,000 a month. In January, she fell ill and landed in intensive care with pneumonia. “I signed a [Do Not Resuscitate form] and a nurse asked, ‘Do you know what this means?’” Woods said. “I told her there was no reason to revive me if my heart stops. They have already ruined my life. I’m beyond exhausted.” After KFF Health News and Cox Media Group published the series “Overpayment Outrage,” hundreds of disability beneficiaries came forward with troubling accounts, including how the government sent them overpayment notices without explanation and threatened to cut off their main source of income with little warning. Members of Congress publicly demanded that SSA fix the problems. Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon said he would meet monthly with agency officials “until it is fixed.” Sens. Gary Peters and Debbie Stabenow, both Michigan Democrats, sent a letter dated Feb. 29 to the SSA, saying many overpayments were caused by the agency. They asked officials to explain what is causing the problems. “It’s absolutely critical that the agency is accurately administering these benefits,” Peters said in written response to an interview request. “I’ve heard from too many people across Michigan who have faced financial hardship after the agency sent them incorrect payments.” The agency recovered $4.9 billion of overpayments during the 2023 fiscal year, with an additional $23 billion in overpayments still uncollected, according to its latest annual financial report. O’Malley said he wants to address overpayment clawbacks as part of a larger effort to address SSA’s “customer service crisis.” He did not provide specifics but said he anticipated plans would be implemented this year. Officials have long acknowledged that the federal disability system is dogged by lengthy delays and dysfunction. Some people become homeless or grow sicker while waiting for an initial decision on an application, which took an average of over seven months in 2023, according to a letter signed by dozens of members of Congress. O’Malley said the agency terminates disability benefits for some people who don’t contact the SSA after receiving a clawback letter. “To be honest, a lot of problems [are caused by] our notices being hard to read,” O’Malley said. “In fact, one might argue that the only thing that’s really clear about the notice is to call the 800 number.” The agency’s toll-free number, O’Malley said, is on his fix-it list, too. Callers complain of lengthy hold times and often are unable to reach an agent for help, according to congressional members, disability attorneys, and others. O’Malley pointed to a 27-year low in staffing. “We’ve been unpacking many of these customer service challenges,” he said. “There’s not one of them that hasn’t been made worse by the short staff.” Still, he said, the overpayment process is unfair. Beneficiaries often must produce evidence to show they did not receive extra money, O’Malley noted. “One would assume that in a country where people are innocent until proven guilty,” he said, “that the burden should fall more on the agency than on the unwitting beneficiary.” Advocates for the poor and disabled said they are hopeful O’Malley will stick to his commitments. “Overpayments have long plagued our clients and caused severe hardship,” said Jen Burdick, an attorney with Community Legal Services of Philadelphia, which represents clients who have received overpayment notices. “We are heartened to see that SSA’s new commissioner is taking a hard look at overpayment policy reforms and optimistic and hopeful his administration will provide these folks some long-needed relief.” Mike Pistorio is worried that change won’t come fast enough for him. A letter dated Sept. 21, 2023, that he received from the Social Security Administration says he was overpaid $9,344. The letter alleges Pistorio — a disabled 63-year-old who said he has four stents in his heart — received too much money on behalf of his children, who are now adults. Pistorio said that he doesn’t understand why he owes the government money and that the SSA has not answered his questions. He said he and his wife live in fear of being evicted from their home because they depend on his $1,266 monthly disability benefits to pay rent. “What makes me mad is none of this is my fault,” said Pistorio, who lives in Middletown, Pennsylvania, and worked as a plumber until his health faltered. “The stress of this has made my diabetes go up.” Pistorio said the agency has offered to deduct $269 a month from his benefits to pay off his debt — an amount he says he cannot afford. “I have told them ‘I will lose my housing,’” Pistorio said. David Hilzenrath of KFF Health News and Jodie Fleischer of Cox Media Group contributed to this report.

Denver-based progressive jam band Eminence Ensemble’s new LP, Inside Looking Out — out on March 14th — sounds like liberation, the shattering of confines imposed by modern living. It’s the dreams that dance across your eyes when looking out the window instead of the ticking clock, the hopes for what life might be that you imagined when you were young and the promise that, even if you aren’t there yet, you will be soon. In this way, the music is propulsive, the kind that forces the listener to look inside and find the light within so that it may then radiate out and cut through all the florescent lighting and banality that exists in this world. It’s intensely relatable music on an existential level that reminds you what it is to live. 303 Magazine recently spoke with the six members of Eminence Ensemble—founding members Justin Neely (guitar and vocals), Tanner Bardin (drums), Nick Baum (percussion and vocals), Zac Flynn (bass, synth and vocals), and new additions Dylan Gleit (guitar and vocals) and Wil Snyder (keyboard and synth)—about the band’s origins, the new album, the evolving state of modern jam music, and more. READ: Profile — Kitchen Dwellers Dance with God and Devil on New Album “Seven Devils” If you’ve been around the Denver jam scene in the last 10 years or so, you’ve heard the name Eminence Ensemble. They’ve played almost every venue in town, from Cervantes’ to the Fillmore, had co-headlining shows with local legends such as Cycles, opened up for jam titans like Umphrey’s McGee, and hit some of the biggest festivals in the country, like Summer Camp, Electric Forest, and more. They’ve solidified themselves as one of the most hardworking and far-reaching yet criminally underrated groups in the jam scene on a national level. It took them a lot of years to get where they are. Eminence Ensemble was first formed in its earliest iteration in “2008 or 2009,” Bardin said. The four founding members that remain in the band actually met in high school, where they “each played in different groups and competed against each other in Battles of the Bands.” After high school, they found that the four of them would all be attending CU Boulder at the same time. Soon after starting college, the four’s respective high school bands went their separate ways, which allowed them to begin jamming together tentatively. After overcoming some preconceived animosity resulting from those early bands competing against each other, they found they worked well together, and Eminence Ensemble was born. Each member of Eminence Ensemble comes from a unique musical background but was introduced to music at a young age. This helped them overcome those previous hard feelings and develop the trust and understanding necessary to form a band with longevity. College treated Eminence Ensemble well. Despite their slow beginnings, they soon became a staple in the Boulder jam scene. This speaks to how Boulder serves as an incubator for up-and-coming musicians. The town today is very different than it used to be, but it has always been a place that allows young artists to meet others with similar sensibilities and provides them with opportunities to make a name for themselves. Eminence Ensemble capitalized on this and built a dedicated following of friends and new fans alike. After college, they experienced something that many can relate to: friends moving away. They found that a large portion of people who had been coming to the shows just weren’t there anymore. Neely said, “We came back to Boulder and found that shows weren’t quite as hopping.” This forced them to work even harder to build that fanbase back up but also taught them a valuable lesson that young bands coming up today can learn from. “Hold onto that initial fanbase,” Neely said. “They’ll be the lifelong fans. Find out where they are now and stay connected because they’ll be coming out to shows whenever you tour.” Over a decade of touring later, Eminence Ensemble continues to rise. All the long years have now culminated in their latest LP, Inside Looking Out. It must be noted that in recent years, there’s been a slow shift in the jam scene away from the more “hippy,” Grateful Dead-inspired music towards a more progressive sound. Eminence Ensemble is one of the pioneers of this shift. While they still take cues from giants of the genre like Umphrey’s and Phish, they also take a lot of inspiration from bands like King Crimson, Frank Zappa, Dream Theater and Steely Dan, artists that have pushed the very nature of music to its limits. Gleit believes this shift in what jam fans are paying the most attention to comes from a few factors. One is oversaturation. Especially in Denver, there are so many bands that aspire to be the next Phish or Dead. This results in a kind of muddying of the water that makes it difficult for young bands to differentiate themselves. It then influences audience preference as people crave variety, and there’s only so much love and light a person can take. “Everybody’s kind of sick of the happy-go-lucky, dancing around with the flamingos music,” Gleit said. “I think when you’re out at a show, you want to let loose, let the lead out a little bit.” The jam scene has always celebrated individuality coupled with familiarity. “The idea that some music can be identifiable is something that the jam scene really kind of latches on to,” Gleit said. “It’s not that jam bands don’t like mainstream music, but they like to separate themselves from it.” This speaks to the idea of what happens when a genre known for existing outside the norm starts to become somewhat uniform. People start to seek variety, to look for the new. When jam music becomes oversaturated with light and “happy-go-lucky,” audiences will start to look for the darkness. “There’s always room for some darkness,” Gleit said. “Get weird, get heavy. It makes the times when your music’s a little happier and a little more fluid more worth it.” This coupling of light and darkness pervades Inside Looking Out. The album has two distinct parts. The first half feels like a lamentation, a scream against the banality of today’s working life. It’s angry and yearning, like watching the seconds crawl by as you near the end of a shift at a job that means nothing to you beyond a paycheck. This is evident on songs such as the album opener, “Downtime,” which deals with feelings of burnout and just needing a break. This feeling flows through the next four songs and culminates at the halfway point, “Already There,” which was released as one of three singles. On its own, without the context of the rest of the album, the song could almost be read as a breakup tune and it is, in a way. But, rather than referring to a relationship, it speaks on finally quitting that shitty job that’s been dimming that light found within. The song is joyous, like freedom, like the world finally brightening up again. It shows how dynamic of songwriters the band is, using lyrics and musicality to capture the feeling of “can’t have sunshine without the rain.” There is darkness in this world, in every person, but without it, the light wouldn’t mean so much. The latter half of the album follows this freedom. The songs get brighter and a little more heartfelt but still have an edge not found in many in the genre. “Believe It,” which follows “Already There” and was also released as a single, is a perfect example of this. It’s about finally having the opportunity to believe in yourself, and the song culminates in this ripping tandem guitar part that feels like shattering the Earth with your own two hands. As a whole, Inside Looking Out is an existentially relatable yet ultimately joyous album that captures modern adult life in a way few projects released recently in any genre have been able to capture. Plus, it fucking rips. Eminence Ensemble continues to be one of the most exciting and interesting bands in the scene. Their music reminds each person who hears it of their place in this world and that change is always possible if they’re not happy with where they are. Keep looking out those windows and dreaming because, one day, this life will be what you hope it to be if it isn’t there yet. Inside Looking Out is out now and can be streamed here!

Hartlepool Borough Council refuses plans for new fish and chip shop on public health grounds and live on Freeview channel 276 Proposals were submitted to Hartlepool Borough Council planning department last year to convert 91 Elwick Road into a hot food takeaway. The application from Manminder Singh Dhatt stated the premises was “a perfect site for his fish and chip shop”. Advertisement Hide AdAdvertisement Hide AdAccording to proposals, the conversion would have created two full-time jobs and one part-time role. The premises were last used as a beauty salon providing training opportunities in 2022. The application went before the latest meeting of the council’s planning committee for a decision and was comfortably refused by councillors. This was in line with recommendations from planning officers, who ruled the development would undermine “efforts to promote healthy lifestyles and would have a negative impact on public health”. Advertisement Hide AdAdvertisement Hide AdThey added it would also be in conflict with Hartlepool Local Plan policy requirements as the site is in a “largely residential area and not in a designated retail centre”. The meeting heard that the council’s director of public health, Craig Blundred, had submitted concerns the plans would “contribute to poor health and health inequalities through the increase in the availability of high fat and sugar foods”. Three objections had also been submitted from residents, including a petition with around 10 signatures. Anne Saunders, who lives nearby, spoke at the meeting voicing her concerns over the parking issues and traffic congestion the development could cause, along with potentially increasing anti-social behaviour in the area. Advertisement Hide AdAdvertisement Hide AdShe also raised worries around the disposal of oil and other rubbish from the site and possible littering. Gordon Henderson, planning agent for the application, argued the site was in “retail and commercial use for many years” prior to becoming vacant and the proposals would see the building “brought back into life”. Speaking at the meeting, he said: “Fish and chips present a much healthier option than the other types of takeaways, ie kebab shops, and they should not be bracketed in the same way. “Ultimately it is each individual’s decision whether or not to eat fish and chips and I’m sure they will do that if they want regardless if it’s approved or not. If not they must travel to do so.”

Excluding sales from gas stations and auto dealers, sales were up 0.3%. Business at general merchandise stores rose 0.4%, while electronics and appliance stores had a solid 1.5% increase. Restaurants posted a 0.4% increase. Furniture and home furnishings stores saw a 1.1% decline. Online sales were down 0.1%. Household spending is being fueled by a strong jobs market and rising wages. But spending has become choppy in the face of rising credit costs and higher prices. America's employers continued to hire in February, adding a surprising 275,000 jobs, underscoring the U.S. economy's resilience despite efforts of the U.S. Federal Reserve to knock down inflation by slowing spending. While costs for many goods appear to have plateaued, consumer prices in the United States picked up last month, showing how a vibrant economic activity and strong consumer spending has made fighting inflation a complicated task for the Fed, and a potential headache for President Joe Biden's bid for re-election. The most recent quarterly financial reports from big retailers like Walmart,Target and Macy's show that their customers are looking for deals and in many cases sticking to the necessities when they shop. “They continue to shop but they are more constrained, ” Target's CEO Brian Cornell told The Associated Press in an interview last week. “People are using credit cards to get through the month. Rent costs across the country are up, and gas has been volatile.” Chris Riccobono, founder of New York clothing chain Untuckit. said that customers are waiting for sales. That is a break from the pandemic and he said this year he wants to cut back on the company's reliance on discounts to drive sales. “I want to start to train our customers to get back into the pre-COVID days,” he said. That was when the company had sales three times a year. The government’s monthly retail sales report offers only a partial look at consumer spending; it doesn’t include many services, including travel and hotel lodges. It's also not adjusted for inflation.
