How to draw an angry Shiva?
Children learn to illustrate Indian mythological stories using different indigenous art forms at these classes that combine storytelling with art
“Do you know who a hermit is?”, asks Nisha Agarwal of a group of six, wide-eyed children and is flooded with delightful replies. Seated on the floor and leaning on low blue tables at her house in Mattancherry, the group is Nisha’s storytelling and art class. Listening to the exchange, 12-year-old Manya says she will build a tree house for the hermit, a homeless wanderer. When Nisha describes the physical appearance of Lord Shiva with his body smeared with ash, the class enters into a discussion on the properties of ash and why it is considered pure by Indians. She is narrating the riveting tale of Shiva’s first wife, Sati who immolated herself to keep the honour of her husband. The class also discusses the banned tradition of Sati and the fact that the two are not interconnected.
“Nobody tells the correct story of Sati. There’s always confusion regarding the practice of women joining their dead husbands on the funeral pyre and Sati, the Goddess of marital fidelity,” explains Nisha
The storytelling is followed by teaching the children to illustrate the stories in different Indian art forms such as Warli, Madhubani, Gond, Kalighat and Saura.
“I developed an interest in Indian mythology, and Vedic stories about eight years ago,” says Nisha, a mother of two adding that she felt there is a growing gap between Indian children and their knowledge of Indian culture. Being an artist, she had a proclivity to paint the mythological characters and themes, she adds.
She combined her two passions - Vedic stories and Indian art styles- in these classes, which have generated a good response.
Children in the age group of four to eight are told stories from the Panchatantra that have birds and animals as their main characters. “The animal world catches their attention,” says Nisha adding that she has them enact the stories too. The older children (ages 10 -15) are treated to stories from The Ramayana and The Mahabharata, besides other Indian tales. “The idea is that children remember these stories, so enacting is a good method. For the more complex stories with philosophy, I encourage discussion on spirituality, scriptures and religion.”
Madhubani for The Ramayana
Nisha says certain art styles are better for certain stories, like The Ramayana is traditionally illustrated in the Madhubani style of Bihar while stories related to Lord Krishna are narrated in the Pichwai form, which has its origin in Rajasthan. “Kalighat paintings of Kolkata, known for their bright colours and bold outlines, have evolved to include modern topics,” she says explaining that a few art forms like the tribal art of western India, Warli and Saura, the tribal art of Odisha have some similarities.
“Saura has elongated figures and is more detailed. It holds the figure of the tribal deity Idital; Nature and festivals are the themes in Warli and Madhubani uses geometric pattens; dots and dashes are used to fill spaces in Gond art,” she explains.
The two-hour classes are conducted in two sessions for different age groups through the month of April. Held on weekdays, they are divided into two parts, an hour each of storytelling and painting. ( On Instagram: Wearart_handmade)

Eisai Co Ltd and Eli
Lilly and Co on Friday said they still plan to seek accelerated U.S. approval for experimental Alzheimer's drugs even after the
Medicare health plan decided to severely limit coverage of medicines approved in that manner.
On Thursday, after a months-long review and a pressure campaign from patient advocacy groups, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) said it would only pay for Biogen Inc's
Aduhelm, and other drugs that work in a similar fashion, for patients enrolled in valid clinical studies, unless the treatments demonstrate clear evidence of patient benefit.
Medicare covers nearly 64 million Americans age 65 and older, so the coverage decision could affect 85% of people who might otherwise use the medications for the age-related condition.
Eisai's lecanemab and Lilly's donanemab, like Aduhelm, are monoclonal antibodies designed to remove beta-amyloid, a type of protein fragment that accumulates in the brains of Alzheimer's patients. The two drugmakers said they expect upcoming
Phase III trial results to eventually validate earlier-stage data under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
A fourth plaque-targeting antibody, gantenerumab, is in late-stage development at Roche Holding AG, which is not seeking an accelerated
FDA review.
The FDA in June authorized Biogen's Aduhelm - the first drug in this class and first U.S. approved Alzheimer's treatment in 20 years - under the agency's accelerated pathway based on the drug's plaque-clearing ability, rather than proof it slows cognitive decline in Alzheimer's patients.
Medicare, however, has decided to allow standard reimbursement only for Alzheimer's drugs approved under the traditional FDA process based on "a direct measure of clinical benefit."
Eisai, which is partnered with Biogen, said it aims to complete a rolling FDA application for lecanemab, under the accelerated pathway, by mid-year. The Japanese drugmaker said it also expects results from its 1,800-patient, Phase III trial this fall.
If those results are positive, Eisai said it believes the large study could meet the "high level of evidence" criteria set by Medicare in its coverage decision.
The study is designed to show that lecanemab can slow by at least 25% the rate of cognitive and functional decline.
"It is a disease-modifying drug," Ivan Cheung, Eisai's U.S. chairman, said in a recent interview with Reuters. "You expect to see separation between the treated and untreated groups that improves over time."
Roche also expects to report Phase III trial results for gantenerumab later this year.
Lilly, in a statement, said it intends to complete its current, rolling application for accelerated FDA approval of donanemab this year. It does not expect to have results from a Phase III trial of the drug until mid-2023.
The Indianapolis-based company said it believes Medicare coverage restrictions are "unnecessary, restrictive and inappropriate" for FDA-approved drugs.
The idea that removing amyloid plaques is reasonably likely to slow cognitive and functional decline in people living with early Alzheimer's is known as the "amyloid hypothesis," a theory that has led to long history of drugs that tried and failed to clear the plagues or help patients.
Greg Rippon, neuroscience and Alzheimer's Disease medical lead at Roche's Genentech unit, explained in a recent interview that the theory is supported by analysis of inherited forms of Alzheimer's, which are all caused by mutations in amyloid processing.
He said more recent studies have shown that the build-up of amyloid is a precursor to other brain dysfunction that speeds neurodegeneration for patients with Alzheimer's.
"Obviously, it comes down to clinical data and demonstrating that clinical benefit and that's where a lot of skepticism is centered," Rippon said. (Reporting By

Scotland’s Home of the Year is back.
The beloved BBC Scotland show returned to our screens on Monday.
Interior designer Anna Campbell-Jones is one of three judges, alongside architect Michael Angus and lifestyle blogger Kate Spiers.
They scour the length and breadth of Scotland to find the country’s finest new homes.
Anna, 53, says: “It’s a tremendously fun show to do. When the producers first contacted me about doing the show I wasn’t sure. I didn’t want to be associated with anything that was negative or judgemental.
“The great thing about the show is its positivity. It’s not my job to criticise what people have done with their homes. I look for things that surprise and delight me.”
Now in its fourth season, every episode focuses on a different region of Scotland. The winning properties from each episode go through to a grand final where Scotland’s Home of the Year is crowned.
Behind the scenes
The viewer gets to meet each home’s owners but Anna and her fellow judges go in blind. She continues:“We never get to see the owners until the very last episode when we meet the ones who are in the final.
“The production crew goes in ahead of us – sometimes we’re lurking down a lane in a blacked out van. Then the owners leave and we go in for a look around. Of course the worst thing is we never get to meet the dogs.”
Anna had never met her fellow judges Michael Angus and Kate Spiers before but quickly bonded with them. “Filming is quite intensive. We often do two properties a day and spend a lot of time in cars and on ferries together.
“We do get along really well. I hope our camaraderie comes across on the screen.”
The first episode of the latest season featured homes from the Highlands, including a small cottage in Fort William and a church conversion in the Black Isle.
Meanwhile, the second episode, going out on Monday, looks at properties in central Scotland. Two of the three houses showcased in the episode are in Fife.
Easter Cottage, Charlestown
Dorothy and Ricky Steedman own Easter Cottage in Charlestown, on the Forth Coast. The 200-year old house was built by the manager of the nearby lime kilns.
The couple bought the house in 2020. “We had sold our house in Edinburgh and were thinking about where to spend our retirement,” Dorothy explains. “We did one year living in the countryside, in Prestonpans, and a year in the city – on King Street in Edinburgh.
“In the city we missed having a garden so when we saw this place we fell in love. We had our offer accepted the day the Prime Minister announced a lockdown and we got the keys in July.”
The beautiful cottage has a semi-open-plan L-shaped living room, kitchen and dining area. The country kitchen is particularly special, with a lovely waney edge wooden worktop and shelving.
“We had a fantastic joiner who spent about six months working on the house,” Dorothy continues. “He made the shelves out of pieces of elm that were in the garden. It was the joiner who suggested we apply to go on Scotland’s Home of the Year. He was proud of his work and wanted to see it on television.”
Yoga space
Dorothy’s favourite space is her yoga studio. Converted from an upstairs bedroom it has three lancet windows which look over the garden and out to the Forth estuary.
“I gave up my career as a graphic designer when I was 50 and retrained as a yoga instructor,” Dorothy says. “Every day starts with yoga and meditation.”
As well as renovating the interior of the house the couple had the garden overhauled. Today it is a welter of colour from its roses, shrubs and other plants. Behind the house is a patch of natural woodland where gardeners have created deer paths and a pond Dorothy likes to meditate beside.
The renovation work took around 18 months to complete. “Really we’ll never be done,” Dorothy admits. “It needed a lot of work done when we bought it. I think that’s what was putting off other people from buying it.
“We’ve already done more to the house than we ever intended to. But when you take on a house as old as this you’re really buying a hobby as well as a home – especially when there’s a big garden as well.”
Dorothy, 72, and Ricky, 73, have grandchildren nearby. With its garden and woodland Easter Cottage is the perfect place for the children to play.
“We really do love it here,” Dorothy smiles. “We looked all over for our retirement home – as far as Prestonpans and Dundee. As soon as we saw this we knew it was perfect for us.”
Scottish Vybe, Dalgety Bay
A few miles along the Fife coastline in Dalgety Bay, Angela and Paul Young own the Scottish Vybe. The 1950s house has been given a dramatic makeover by the couple.
“We’ve always lived in Dalgety Bay,” Angela says. “Paul’s parents live three doors down. When the elderly man who lived in what is now our home passed away his son wanted us to have the house, so we were able to buy it without it going on the open market, which was lovely.”
Work commenced literally immediately. Angela continues: “We got the keys and Paul was in the house for about an hour before I arrived. By the time I got there he’d taken down all the upstairs walls. Paul runs a joinery company and he had about six lads on site. He didn’t waste any time.”
Built in the late 1950s the Scottish Vybe was originally owned by a Norwegian sea captain. He took the unusual-for-the-time step of making the property an upside down house, with the living room upstairs and the bedrooms on the ground floor. “It was quite unusual for Scotland in that era but upstairs is where you get the fantastic views over the sea,” says Angela. “Being a captain he wanted to enjoy those views from his living room.
“That wasn’t the only thing that was futuristic about the house when it was built. They even put in a laundry chute! We can drop laundry down and it lands right next to the washing machine.”
Renovating twice
The couple moved in six years ago. “We’ve renovated the house twice since then. Paul spent about six weeks on it when we moved in. That was what you usually do with a new house – redoing the wiring, new bathrooms, and just making everything nice and neutral.
“It’s over the years since then that we’ve put our own personality on it.”
Hidden lighting artfully illuminates the Scottish Vybe’s interior and exterior. At one end of the garden is a terrific timber roundhouse with open fire. The lounge has huge first floor windows and Angela’s favourite part of the house is the upstairs balcony, which has fantastic views over the sea to the Lothian coastline.
Angela, 45, and Paul, 49, live at Scottish Vybe with their four children and four dogs. “There’s a lot of us in there but it’s a big house and it never feels crowded,” she says. “We’ve got two living rooms so usually we’ll be in the one upstairs and the kids will be downstairs.”
The couple are big fans of Scotland’s Home of the Year. “We really love watching the show. We sit down and watch it together every week. It’s such a nice show and we love looking around other properties.
“We’re very proud of what we’ve done with our house so we decided to put it forward for the programme. I was delighted that we made the top three in Central Fife.
“The people who put the show together are so wonderful. We even hosted them for drinks when they’d finished filming.”
Scotland’s Home of the Year is on BBC One Scotland on Monday April 11 at 8.30pm. Previous episodes and seasons are available on iPlayer.

Faced with rising raw material costs, foundry industry seeks ban on pig iron exports
The foundry industry is the "second-largest global producer of value-added metal castings with 12 million tonne per annum production, generating revenue of $19 billion and exports of $3 billion".
KOLKATA: The ailing foundry industry is facing a double whammy as units are witnessing a sharp rise in raw material costs and declining exports due to the Russian-Ukraine crisis, an official said on Friday. The industry, which is a key component feeder of metal castings to almost all engineering sectors, is seeking an immediate ban on the export of pig iron and iron ore, the key raw materials for foundries, he said.
"Already 30 per cent of foundry units in Bengal are closed. Several others are expected to follow suit. Foundries, which are currently running, are operating at around 50 per cent of their capacity," Indian Foundry Association vice chairman Akash Madhogaria said.
The foundry industry is the "second-largest global producer of value-added metal castings with 12 million tonne per annum production, generating revenue of $19 billion and exports of $3 billion".
"Price of pig iron has increased to Rs 58,000 per tonne from Rs 40,000 since January this year. Met coke price has also soared to Rs 54,000 per tonne from Rs 40,000, while the cost of other raw materials rose in the last quarter," he said.
Around 300 foundry units in West Bengal, where 95 per cent of them are run by MSMEs, provide employment to one lakh people, according to the industry body.
Nationally, the sector employs around two million people directly and indirectly.
The association also sought government support to strengthen the industry with revised schemes like the credit-linked capital subsidy programme, meant only for MSMEs, as the incentives under it need an "upward revision to augment investments for modernisation".
Car production is expected to be affected for the rest of 2022 because of the semiconductor supply crunch. For the two-wheeler segment, the rural recovery is still remote and the market for commuter motorcycles is yet to recover from the second COVID wave. Meanwhile, the commercial vehicle and the tractor segments are showing signs of recovery.
Speaking at the event, Gadkari said FCEV, powered by hydrogen, is one of the best zero-emission solutions. It is completely environment-friendly with no tailpipe emissions other than water.

Russia may have committed another war crime by targeting fleeing civilians at an eastern Ukraine railway station with precision missiles, the Defence Secretary has said.
Ben Wallace vowed to “do everything” to ensure Vladimir Putin fails in Ukraine and confirmed Britain will be sending Mastiff armoured vehicles to aid the fight against the Russian President’s forces.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said at least 30 people were killed in the attack on the crowded Kramatorsk station that was an evacuation point for civilians.
A further 100 people were injured, Mr Zelensky said as he blamed Russia for “an evil without limits”, while the Kremlin denied targeting the station.
Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said she was “appalled” by the reports, adding: “The targeting of civilians is a war crime. We will hold Russia and Putin to account.”
Mr Wallace, visiting Romania for talks, said the strike was a repeat of the Russian president and his generals targeting civilians.
Speaking at a press conference in Constanta, he said: “Not very far away this morning in a place called Kramatorsk, what appear to be Russian missiles struck civilian people queuing for trains to seek a safer place from the war.
“The striking of civilians and critical infrastructure is a war crime. These were precision missiles aimed at people trying to seek humanitarian shelter.”
Mr Wallace said the sanctions targeting Russia must not be lifted to allow Mr Putin to go back to “his superyachts and normality”.
“Whatever happens in Ukraine we must not let the international community forget that. What Putin is doing here today is creating his own cage around himself,” he said.
He said the RAF will increase its contribution to protect Nato’s eastern flank in Romania from four to six Typhoon jets, “because Putin listens to only one thing and that is strength”.
“We will do everything to see him defeated in Ukraine. There is more to do, Britain will do more, it will contribute more,” he added.
Mr Wallace said the West cannot provoke Mr Putin any more with jets over Nato land, with the Kremlin having already expended thousands of Russian lives in the invasion.
But he said the Russian president will hear the western response.
“Where is the Russian economy now, where is the rouble now? Where are his friends?” he said.
“If his friends are Belarus, and North Korea, and Venezuela, that’s not a party I want to attend. That’s not much of a friendship group worth having,” he said.
In an interview with Sky News, Mr Wallace confirmed the UK will be sending armoured vehicles to Ukraine in what will be a first, after previously supplying anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles.
“We will be sending armoured vehicles, protective armoured vehicles – such as Mastiff – to make sure that Ukraine has that support,” he said.
The office of Ukraine’s prosecutor-general said about 4,000 civilians were in and around the Kramatorsk station, most of them women and children.
The strike came as Moscow was backing down from its attempt to encircle the capital Kyiv and instead trying to take eastern Ukraine.
Pressed if he thinks the station attack was a war crime, Mr Wallace told the press conference that the evidence would be collected to prove the answer, but added: “The circumstantial evidence absolutely points to a range of war crimes being committed by Russia.”
Mr Wallace insisted Mr Putin’s war would backfire.
“There will be more Ukraine after this, there will be more forces on the border with Nato, there may be more Nato members as a result of Putin’s actions,” Mr Wallace said.

What do you need for beach volleyball?
There are many ways to enjoy the beach. If you’d rather something a little more active than working on your tan, volleyball may be just the thing. You can burn off a few extra calories while having fun with friends and relieving stress.
Of course, you can’t show up at the beach empty-handed and expect to get a game going. You’ll need to get yourself a few things first.
What you need to play beach volleyball
There are many nice-to-haves when playing volleyball, but besides willing players there are only two true necessities: a net and a ball.
Best beach volleyball net
Park & Sun Sports Spectrum Portable Outdoor Volleyball Net
This durable set is both easy to set up and highly portable, two important features when selecting a beach volleyball net. It features telescoping aluminum poles so you can adjust its height to fit the players’ needs, and the net is made from a sturdy nylon that can stand up to constant exposure to the elements.

This ball was used in the 2012 and 2016 Summer Olympics, which speaks to its quality. It has reinforced panels and a water-resistant exterior to stand up to plenty of use. The bright colors make it easy to keep track of in the air, too, so you’ll have no excuse to miss that spike.

What you need to protect yourself
There are few things better than enjoying a day at the beach playing volleyball. You’ll be spending a lot of time in the sun, though, so you’ll need to protect yourself. This means wearing sunscreen and reapplying it regularly. But your skin isn’t the only thing susceptible to damage from ultraviolet rays, so don’t forget a pair of sporty polarized sunglasses — and something to keep your feet safe will help, too.
Best sunscreen
Hawaiian Tropic Island Sport Sunscreen Lotion
Hawaiian Tropic Island Sport is lightweight, dries quickly and doesn’t leave you feeling greasy. It is also water-resistant, so you don’t have to worry about sweat washing it off, and the 50 SPF rating offers plenty of protection against sunburns.

What you need to enjoy the day
Heading to the beach to play volleyball shouldn’t be only about the game. There are several things that can help you enjoy the day, including chairs and an umbrella to lounge under so you can get out of the sun for a bit. Make sure to bring along a cooler, too, with plenty of beverages to keep you hydrated.
Best beach chair

Watford boss Roy Hodgson knows the team must start from “point zero” when they bid to restart their survival push against Leeds.
The Hornets were pushed back to second bottom of the table after relegation rivals Burnley secured a late 3-2 win over Everton on Wednesday night.
Watford now sit three points from safety, but have played a match more than both the sides above then.
Despite the complexities of just how the survival battle may play out over the closing eight games, Hodgson wants his side totally focused on the here and now.
“Every game you go into it from point zero – they want to win and have the capabilities of winning the game, as they have shown recently by winning two matches back to back,” Hodgson said.
“But we want to win too and we believe we also have the capability.
“It is really just a question of having prepared the team as best as we can, we think, to help them face the challenges that Leeds are going to pose for us.
“We have just got to hope that we can bring it off on the day and give that performance which we need if we are going to get points.”
Watford were beaten 2-0 at Liverpool last weekend, coming out on the wrong end of a controversial VAR decision which saw Fabinho score a late penalty to seal victory.
Despite the defeat, Hodgson felt his team had shown enough to give him cause for optimism
“I need a similar performance, that is what I really need,” the former England boss said.
“Reactions are when you feel your team has done badly or you feel your team has not worked hard enough or hasn’t played in the right way and you want to see something totally different.
“That is where I think I would use the word reaction, but I don’t think I want to use the word reaction after what I have seen from the team at Southampton and Liverpool.
“I would like to see a lot more of the same and of course I would like to see us being a bit more fortunate in front of goal and creating a few more goal chances.”
Leeds had looked set to be dragged into the relegation scrap after a poor run of form under Marcelo Bielsa.
However, with new American coach Jesse Marsch now at the helm, they have put together a three-match unbeaten run.
“Since Marcelo Bielsa took over Leeds, and now Jessie Marsh has come in, we have seen a Leeds side that is very competitive,” Hodgson said.
“We have seen a Leeds side that had a fantastic season last season and looks like they are pulling well away from the relegation zone this season.
“So that is going to be regarded as a great success for Leeds United Football Club.”

West Ham boss David Moyes has told Lyon forward Moussa Dembele what goes around comes around.
Dembele was caught winking after he was brought down by Aaron Cresswell in the Europa League quarter-final first leg on Thursday.
The left-back was sent off after the referee deemed him to be denying a goalscoring opportunity and the Frenchman gave a wink, just as Cristiano Ronaldo did against England at the 2006 World Cup following Wayne Rooney’s dismissal.
Moyes reminded Dembele that fortunes can quickly change in football and pointed to Cresswell as evidence as his red card came just days after scoring a brilliant free-kick against Everton at the weekend.
“Sometimes you feel as if you can be hard done by and you just have to put it aside and get on with it,” the Scot said.
“Aaron Cresswell scored a brilliant free-kick the other day (against Everton), lots of talk about him.
“This game has got a strange way of coming back to catch you, you just never know.
“That’s why when you talk about people being down and reacting in certain ways, that can sometimes come back at different times in different ways.
“Football has a strange way of coming back to get you.
“You can see the action, you can see what happened. Unfortunately it happened and it didn’t help us.”
Cresswell will still be able to play as the Hammers return to domestic action with a trip across London to Brentford on Saturday.
They will come up against Christian Eriksen, whose return from his cardiac arrest last summer is going from strength to strength.
Moyes believes his story is sending a positive message.
“I think it is a brilliant story. I don’t think anyone ever doubted Christian Eriksen as a player,” he said.
“Unbelievable player, it looks as if he’s a really good lad. I think it is just a wee bit more about hope.
“Everyone in life should feel that when things are down don’t let it keep you down, keep fighting, it is a great message to everybody.
“That is why he gets applauded and that’s why people cheer because they see something that everybody knows was very close, now to being back playing and playing very well.”

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Eleven people were injured in a “major collision” Friday night in Austin, Texas, involving pedestrians and two vehicles, one of which hit a food truck, authorities said.
Austin-Travis County Emergency Medical Services tweeted that two of the victims sustained potential life-threatening injuries. Seven others sustained non-life-threatening injuries requiring medical evaluation. The other two didn’t require hospitalization.
The collision occurred in a popular area near downtown Austin where there are frequently several food carts stationed.
Jennifer Dunn, an employee at a nearby restaurant, told The Associated Press that a group of 25 people had just left to get ice cream at a food truck a few feet away when patrons inside the restaurant heard a loud boom.
Dunn said several members of the group then ran back inside injured and asking for help. Dunn said she and others ran to the scene where several people, including the drivers, appeared severely hurt.
“We work in the restaurant industry, so we are used to helping,” Dunn said. “I have been doing this for a long (time), so have the servers and we just wanted to help.”
Austin is the Texas state capital and home to the flagship campus of the University of Texas.

Cooper, Elinor R. "Ellie"
died on Thanksgiving, Nov. 25, 2021, following declining health. The most important things to her were her family, her teaching career and the blues. She taught for more than 20 years at Normandy High School and many a Saturday night she could be found checking IDs at the door at BB's Jazz Blues & Soups.
Ellie was born on April 14, 1942 to the late Lyle Senne and Ruth Senne Mabie in Kalamazoo, Mich. She married Jerry Cooper in 1966; they divorced in 1985. Their daughter, Christine, was born in 1971 and the family moved to St. Louis shortly thereafter. Ellie moved to Dayton, Ohio in 2020 to be closer to her sister, Carol Waszkiewicz.
Known for her sharp wit and style, Ellie was always well coiffed and dressed with a little bit (ok, a lot) of sparkle. She had many close friends from her years teaching and from BB's, including numerous musicians.
She is survived by daughter Christine of Fremont, Calif.; another sister, Kathryn Senne of Petoskey, Mich.; niece Stacy Ross and husband Jim and close friend Wade Morse, all of St. Louis; nieces Suzy Hardin and Margaret Sampson, of Dayton; Betsy Bennett of Fennville, Mich., and Angie Waszkiewicz of Barkhamsted, Conn.; nephews Brendan Senne Laguna of Milwaukee, Wis., and Christopher Senne Laguna of San Antonio, Texas. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by sister Laura Senne Laguna.
Services: A blues-themed celebration will take place at BB's Blues, Jazz and Soups in the spring. Donations in Ellie's memory may be made to The National Blues Museum in St. Louis. To share a memory of Ellie or leave her family a special message, please visit ww.newcomerdayton.com.

Tskhinvali Leadership Hopeful Shows Cautious Stance on Annexation
South Ossetian leadership hopeful Alan Gagloev, opposition Nykhas party leader, told Russian news agency TASS that the idea of the occupied region “joining” Russia is not at the moment in Moscow’s favor.
“When the incumbent president [Anatoly Bibilov] announced the referendum, we witnessed together with you that from that moment Georgia supported U.S. sanctions against Russia.”
“That is, we see that the steps of the incumbent [S. Ossetian] government pushed Georgia to go against Russia once again,” Gagloev said.
But Gagloev asserted Russia absorbing the region is not Bibilov’s initiative: “Our people have already held a referendum several times, we know the public opinion on this very well,”
“Bibilov is dragging our Russian colleagues into this situation, thus discrediting the Russian Federation and causing anti-Russian sentiments in the republic,” TASS quoted Gagloev as saying.
Gagloev stated occupied South Ossetia’s possible “accession” to Russia “cannot be a unilateral decision.”
“We are always monitoring Russia’s position and as soon as our strategic partner, Russia, gives a signal, South Ossetia and the people of South Ossetia are ready to help the Russian Federation and if necessary take a step forward.”
“I think the current authorities of Russia represented by President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin are still busy with other issues, I think it is more serious,” Gagloev concluded.
Voters in Georgia’s Russian-held Tskhinvali Region will vote in “presidential elections” tomorrow, April 10. Five candidates, including incumbent Anatoly Bibilov vie for the highest office. Georgia and most of the international community, including the U.S., EU, and OSCE do not recognize the sham vote.
- Tskhinvali Registers Group for Russian Annexation Referendum
- Russian Officials Launch Annexation Campaign in Tskhinvali
- Explainer: April 10 Elections in Tskhinvali
- Bibilov on Two Referendums, Unlikely ‘Provocations’ from Tbilisi
Background:
Anatoly Bibilov announced on March 30 that his regime will take “appropriate legal steps in the near future” to seize the moment of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and achieve Moscow’s annexation of the region. He made similar annexation pledges many times before.
An array of Russian politicians promptly welcomed the announcement, with ruling United Russia’s Andrei Klimov suggesting that Tskhinvali should first hold a referendum, after which there will be “no legal obstacles” for the annexation.
Bibilov later said plebiscite would take place in a few weeks after the April 10 vote.
Georgia reacted that “it is unacceptable to discuss any referendums while Georgia’s territory is occupied by Russia.”
Moscow recognized the independence of Abkhazia and Tskhinvali Region on August 26, 2008, two weeks after the end of the Russo-Georgian war. Tbilisi and most of the international community regard the two regions as part of Georgia.
As things stand, some 30 thousand ethnic Georgians remain uprooted from Tskhinvali Region following the armed conflict in 1991-92 and the Russo-Georgian War of 2008.

CHICAGO (AP) — Jurors on Friday acquitted two men and deadlocked on two others accused of plotting to abduct Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in 2020. They concluded nearly five days of deliberations after weeks of testimony in U.S. District Court in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Here’s a look at the charges:
WHO WERE THE DEFENDANTS?
Six men were initially charged but two pleaded guilty before trial.
The remaining defendants included Adam Fox, described by prosecutors as the plot’s ringleader. He and co-defendant Barry Croft Jr. were affiliated with the “Three Percenter” far-right anti-government movement. They may be tried again after the jury hit an impasse on their charges.
The other two defendants, Daniel Harris and Brandon Caserta — who were found not guilty of all charges — were members of the Wolverine Watchmen, a self-styled militia with similar views, according to prosecutors.
Ty Garbinpleaded guilty last year and Kaleb Franksjoined him in February. Both were government witnesses at trial.
WHAT WERE THE CHARGES?
All four were charged with kidnapping conspiracy.
According to prosecutors, the defendants plotted from June to October 2020 to abduct Whitmer from her vacation home in northern Michigan because they were infuriated by what they saw as her overly restrictive policies during the pandemic.
Fox, Croft and Harris were also charged with conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction. Prosecutors said they sought to construct and buy explosives, with the aim of destroying a bridge near Whitmer’s cottage to stymie police during the kidnapping. Harris was acquitted on the charge.
Croft and Harris were charged with possession of an unregistered destructive device — a firework wrapped with pennies that could serve as shrapnel. Harris was acquitted.
Harris was the only one charged with possession of a semi-automatic assault rifle with a barrel less than 16 inches long that wasn’t registered to him. He was acquitted.
WHAT WERE THE POTENTIAL SENTENCES?
The kidnapping conspiracy and conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction charges carried maximum life sentences.
Garbin has already been sentenced to six years in prison, and Franks is expected to receive a lighter sentence than if he had lost at trial.
WHAT WAS REQUIRED FOR CONVICTIONS?
The defendants never achieved their purported goal of kidnapping Whitmer. Unbeknownst to them, the FBI had infiltrated their group and was closely monitoring them. They were arrested in October 2020.
Defense attorneys portrayed their clients as weekend warriors prone to big, wild talk, who were often stoned. To prove it was deadly serious, prosecutors entered evidence showing the defendants took specific steps, referred to as “overt acts,” toward implementing their plans.
Jury instructions explained that convictions on the kidnapping and weapons conspiracy charges required evidence that each defendant committed at least one of the long list of overt acts in the indictment.
Proof that a defendant simply knew about the conspiracy or associated with members of the conspiracy wasn’t enough.
WHAT WERE THE ALLEGED OVERT ACTS?
They included that Fox proposed the kidnapping of Whitmer on Aug. 23, 2020, during a meeting with Harris and Caserta. Another was that the men scrutinized each other’s IDs in a bid to ensure no one was an undercover agent.
Another was that Fox, Croft, Harris and Caserta held field-training exercises in September 2020, practicing tactics for fighting Whitmer’s security detail.
The indictment attributed another overt act on Oct. 7, 2020, to Caserta, alleging he instructed co-conspirators that, if they encountered police, they should give the officers one chance to leave, then kill them.
Alleged overt acts on the weapons of mass destruction charge included that Harris boasted on May 1, 2020, that he was a Marine Corps veteran who “can make things go boom if you give me what I need.”
WHAT WAS THE ROLE OF ENTRAPMENT?
The defense mounted an entrapment defense at trial, accusing the FBI of engaging in the barred investigatory practice. Jurors who find authorities tricked or cajoled targets into committing crimes they showed no predisposition to commit were supposed to return with not guilty verdicts.
Prosecutors had the burden of proving defendants weren’t entrapped. At trial, they sought to showthat not only were the men predisposed to joining the kidnap plot but that they discussed such schemes before the FBI sting began.

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks are mixed on Friday, and Wall Street is heading for its first losing week in the last four as investors brace for the Federal Reserve to press the brakes on the economy more aggressively to beat down inflation.
The S&P 500 was 0.1% higher in afternoon trading after earlier drifting between small losses and gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 244 points, or 0.7%, at 34,828, as of 2 p.m. Eastern time. Technology stocks were again lagging the market, dragging the Nasdaq composite down 0.8%.
The S&P 500 remains on track for a loss of 1% this week. Stocks have slumped as the Federal Reserve swings more aggressively toward fighting inflation by raising short-term interest rates and making other moves. It’s a sharp reversal from keeping rates at record lows to stimulate the economy and carry it through the pandemic.
Investors learned this week that the Fed may hike short-term rates by double the usual amount several times at upcoming meetings, and that it came very close to doing so last month. The last time that happened was in 2000. The Fed also indicated in the minutes from its last meeting that it’s likely to shrink its massive stockpile of bonds by up to $95 billion monthly, starting as soon as next month.
Altogether, the moves should make it more expensive for U.S. households and businesses to borrow, which would in turn slow the economy and hopefully halt the hottest inflation in 40 years.
On Wall Street, higher rates particularly hurt stocks seen as the most expensive. That’s because higher rates mean better returns for owning relatively safe bonds, which makes investors less willing to pay higher prices for riskier assets like stocks.
That’s why big technology and other high-growth stocks have led the market lower recently. Apple, Nvidia, Tesla and Amazon were among Friday’s heaviest weights on the market, with each dropping at least 1.1%.
Worries are also rising about he strength of the economy. With the Federal Reserve set to raise rates so aggressively, the fear is that it will squeeze the brakes so hard that it will force the economy into a recession. While that’s not the consensus on Wall Street, economists at Deutsche Bank earlier this week said they project a U.S. recession by late next year.
The war in Ukraine has made things more uncertain by threatening to worsen inflation and damage the global economy. Prices for oil, gas and food have been particularly volatilesince Russia invaded the country.
A barrel of benchmark U.S. crude rose 1.2% to $97.19 on Friday. It has swung wildly in recent weeks and briefly topped $130 last month. Brent crude, the international standard, added 1% to $101.58 per barrel.
Much of the market’s focus has been on the bond market, where expectations for more aggressive Fed action have sent yields to their highest levels in three years. The 10-year yield climbed to 2.70% from 2.65% late Thursday. It was at just 1.51% at the start of the year.
It could be set to rise further as the Fed not only halts but reverses its program to buy trillions of dollars of bonds.
The bond buying helped prices for stocks and other financial assets to soar and markets to stay relatively calm, Chief Investment Strategist Michael Hartnett wrote in a recent BofA Global Research report.
Now the Fed is less than a month away from reversing that, which “by design will be negative” for financial assets, Hartnett said. He said it should lead to higher bond yields and higher volatility in markets.
Meanwhile, COVID-19 continues to squeeze the economy around the world, particularly in China. Shanghai residents face severe restrictions on movement and activities because of a surge in infections, with economic effects rippling around the world.
ACM Research, a supplier of equipment for the semiconductor industry that has offices and production facilities in Shanghai, said the restrictions will cause a significant hit to its revenue. The stock fell 5.8%.
A jump in COVID-19 cases is also behind airline disruptions in Europe. Two major airlines, British Airways and easyJet, canceled about 100 flights Wednesday. The industry is suffering from staff shortages because of the virus.

Best ladder for cleaning your roof
It can be costly to hire someone to clean your roof. If you would rather save some money and don’t mind a bit of work, you can tackle the job yourself without much hassle, as long as you have the right tools. One of the most important is a reliable ladder.
The proper ladder for cleaning your roof depends on a few things, including your roof’s height and whether you have a gutter. Some ladders need to be leaned against the house and can easily damage delicate fixtures. You’ll also need to take your storage space into account. Ladders for cleaning roofs are tall and can be difficult to find a place for when not in use.
What to look for when buying a ladder for cleaning your roof
Types of ladders
There are three main categories of ladders: fixed, self-standing and non-self-supporting. Since most people don’t want a ladder permanently fixed to their house, only the latter two are suitable choices for homeowners.
- Self-standing ladders are sometimes referred to as A-frame ladders due to their shape. They have a wide stance and tend to feel stable underfoot. They often have high weight capacities, and sometimes feature a small tool shelf near the top.
- Non-self-supporting ladders include both extension and telescoping ladders. There is some similarity between them as they can both adjust to varying heights, but telescoping ladders store much more compactly. It is not uncommon for one to retract down to a fifth of its maximum height, while extension ladders only retract to half their maximum height. The benefit of extension ladders is they tend to have a beefier build and feel more stable.
There also are versatile multi-position ladders that can be set up either in a self-standing or a non-self-supporting manner.
Height
Any non-self-supporting ladder should extend at least 1 foot past the roof of your home to ensure it can be safely secured in place. The exception to this are those that feature attachment hooks. These can be equal to the height of your roof.
For self-standing A-frame ladders, the top rung should be close to equal with the height of your roof so you can easily move from one to the other.
Weight capacity
Some ladders are only designed to support up to 200 pounds, while others can support as much as 375. A ladder’s load capacity, or “duty rating,” is usually specified somewhere in the product description.
If you don’t see it, the manufacturer may have listed the type rating instead. The load capacities by type are:
- Type IAA ladders: 375 pounds
- Type IA ladders: 300 pounds
- Type I ladders: 250 pounds
- Type II ladders: 225 pounds
- Type III ladders: 200 pounds

Sold by Amazon and Home Depot
This aluminum ladder has double-riveted high-traction steps for safety and a tool tray at the top to keep small supplies close at hand. Its quality build ensures it will last through years of regular use. However, it commands a high price tag that may put it out of reach for some.
Sold by Amazon
Best multi-position ladders
It converts from an A-frame ladder to an extension ladder depending on your needs. As an A-frame, it can be used by two people simultaneously, with each portion having a 300-pound capacity. It meets or exceeds all standards set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the American National Standards Institute, so it is suitable for commercial jobs.
Sold by Amazon
LuisLadders 18.5-Foot Folding Ladder
When it comes to versatility, this ladder is king. It can be used in several ways, including as a 9.5-foot-long platform when painting and doing other jobs that require covering a lot of ground. It features a fold-out tool tray when used in the A-frame configuration.

Rio Ferdinand belies Erik ten Hag will need to create a culture in order to bring success back to Manchester United.
The Ajax head coach is expected to be confirmed as United's next permanent manager, having established himself as the frontrunner following an interview. Manchester Evening News understands the Eredivisie giants are anticipating a summer exit.
The 52-year-old, should he take charge of United, has a mammoth task of reshaping the club as they head into their seventh consecutive season without silverware. Ten Hag's achievements in his homeland have been lauded and Ferdinand believes the next man in the Old Trafford dugout should follow Sir Alex Ferguson's lead.

"Obsession, that’s the type of word Sir Alex Ferguson would put into the players’ heads. Listen, I think Ten Hag, if he’s the guy that comes in and the rumours are that he might be, I don’t think there’s any candidate out there that’s been talked about that you think ‘he’s the guy, he’ll give us a great opportunity at challenging’," he said speaking to BT Sport.
"I think he’ll need support and the framework around him, in terms of recruitment and strategy, then he needs to provide the foundations for the framework around the team and the culture. You look at Sir Alex Ferguson there and what he did, he built a culture over many years and had plenty of support in that time.
"But, he built a culture, [and] managers nowadays have to do that much quicker. You see with Pep and Jurgen Klopp they can build a culture and implement that, but this manager will need that time and have to show the signs early on to get that."

Greens fear draft rules on 11 species of trees will spell environmental disaster
MYSURU April 09, 2022 16:51 ISTThey say it could encourage large-scale tree felling
Greens in Karnataka have red flagged a draft notification by the State Forest Department seeking to exempt 11 species of trees from certain provisions governing the Karnataka Forest Rules, 1969.
If finalised and approved, the 11 species will join the existing list of nearly 40 other species of trees that are exempted from any permission for being transported under rule 144 of Karnataka Forest Rules, 1969 and this could encourage large-scale tree felling.
Activist and former State Wildlife Board member Joseph Hoover suspects it could devastate vast tracts of tree cover in Uttara Kannada, Chikkamagaluru, Hassan, Shivamogga etc. ‘’According to an estimate at least 6 lakh trees could be harvested if the draft becomes a law and denude the tree cover in the ecologically sensitive Western Ghats’’, he added.
Though the draft notification mentions that the exemption is from the purview of rule 144 pertaining to permission for transportation, it indirectly abets felling as well because one cannot transport timber without axing the tree, he added.
Sources in the Forest Department said the proposed exemption is only in case of trees grown on private land and will not apply to trees on public or government land. The list of species are Neem, Babool, Mahogany, Hulgal (Honge), Atti, Ala, Arali, Shivani, Bore, Dowga Bamboo and Medri Bamboo.
The draft is still under discussion and no final decision has been taken but has been introduced for the benefit of farmers, according to officials. ‘’Farmers with small land holdings are reluctant to grow trees as they cannot harvest and monetise it. The easing of such restrictions could encourage farmer to grow more short-duration trees whose environmental services can be utilised for 8 to 10 years,” the officials added.
However, .Badagalpura Nagendra, President, Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha (KRRS), said any rule ostensibly taken for the benefit of farmers is to be viewed with suspicion as the government always has a vested interest behind such moves.
‘’Since the draft notification pertains to lifting restrictions on 11 species cultivated on private land, it is perhaps aimed at providing relief to corporate owned large landholdings, plantations etc. If not, the government should stipulate the maximum size of the land holding for which the exemption becomes applicable’’, he added.
Mr. Hoover said only the timber mafia will benefit from such a relaxation and it was being tried since 2012 but was stalled repeatedly. As it is, linear projects, hydro-electric works, mining, powerline projects etc in Western Ghats has led to axing of tens of lakhs of trees and the easing of restrictions could further abet denudation of tree and forest cover, he said in a memorandum to the Forest Department.

Scores of CBD products banned: Oils and supplements backed by David Beckham, Noel Gallagher's ex Meg Mathews and golfer Darren Clarke are among those taken off sale
- A quarter of CBD products at Boots and half on Amazon don't meet testing rules
- Noel Gallagher's ex-wife Meg Mathews pulls CBD tablets for menopausal women
- Beckham part-owned Cellular Goods will have to withdraw ingestibles from sale
- But Anthony Joshua, Paddy McGuinness and Claudia Winkleman's products stay
- FSA doesn't deem all listed products safe - and non-listed aren't all unsafe, either
- Comes as agency attempts to crack down on 'non-credible' CBD-infused foods
Cannabis supplements promoted by David Beckham, golf star Darren Clarke and socialite Meg Mathews are set to be taken off the market after a safety probe.
The Food Standards Agency has published a list of approved cannabinoid (CBD) products based on the strength of their testing processes.
And celebrity-backed supplements from the likes of Beckham, Clarke and Mathews fall foul of the agency's new rules.
Products endorsed by David Beckham (pictured yesterday) and Meg Mathews (snapped on a red carpet in 2017) fall foul of the FSA's new guidelines mandating strict testing regimes
But those endorsed by Anthony Joshua, Paddy McGuinness and Claudia Winkleman are featured on the list, meaning they can continue to be sold.
Half of the CBD products sold on Amazon and a quarter of those at Boots have failed to make the list and will have to be withdrawn from sale, The Times reported.
The FSA list does not assess the safety or nutritional value of items, just their testing procedures.
Ms Mathews, ex-wife of Oasis member Noel Gallagher, has already pulled her CBD supplements for menopausal women from the market.
The Primrose Hill socialite and former music executive runs two cannabis farms in England and Ireland.
Ryder Cup winner Clarke's range, which includes forest fruit drops for £55, will reportedly make the list next week.
It's not clear whether CBD supplements sold by Cellular Goods, which David Beckham owns 5 per cent of, will change their testing methods or leave the market.
The FSA sets food hygiene rules in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
In Scotland, any CBD products with less than 0.2 per cent psychoactive THC are legal to buy.
High street CBD supplements are not classed as medicines, but foods.
That means they can't make health claims. But advocates say CBD products can help people who struggle with sleep, anxiety and chronic pain.
In a statement, the agency said: 'If a product isn’t on the list, retailers should remove it because it’s not attached to a credible application for market authorisation.'
The FSA cannot enforce food safety rules against shops but said it expects councils to do so.
The Association for the Cannabinoid Industry added: 'The list is a major milestone and will increase consumer trust.'
And a spokesperson for Cellular Goods said: 'We’ve been selling our ingestibles in good faith and firmly believe they’re fully legally compliant.
Ryder Cup winner Clarke sells forest fruit drops for £55 which 'improve concentration'
'We’ve approached the FSA to get further confirmation of the position of our products.'
The 3,500-strong list comes as the FSA seeks to crack down on what it deems 'non-credible' CBD supplements.
It also warned that cannabidiol supplements currently on the list could still turn out to be bogus.
Chief executive Emily Miles said last week: 'Being on the list means that the application is credible and the FSA has, or is shortly expecting to receive, significant scientific evidence from the applicant with which to judge safety.
'I want to emphasise that the FSA is not endorsing products on the public list.
'Inclusion on the list is no guarantee that they will be authorised as they have not yet been fully assessed for safety.
Sales of CBD products were worth £690million in 2020, £164million above market predictions
'But we have taken the step of publishing the list so that local authorities, retailers and consumers can make informed judgments about what they stock and buy.'
CBD product sales reached £690million last year, £164million above industry expectations.
The deadline for manufacturers to submit products for review was March 31.
Minutes from the FSA chief executive's report in December said 'the quality of applications was lower than we anticipated.'
The FSA says consumers should 'think carefully' before taking CBD products. It says healthy adults shouldn't take more than 70mg a day.
The agency also recommends people in vulnerable groups, including pregnant and breastfeeding women and those taking medication should not use it unless under medical direction.

Neil Warnock announces his retirement from football management at the age of 73 after 42 YEARS in the dugout in which he coached 16 teams, oversaw 1,603 games and earned the record for the most promotions in the English game
- Neil Warnock has announced his retirement from football management
- He confirmed the news as a guest on Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday show
- Warnock holds the record for most games managed in the English game
- He coached 16 teams and earned the record for most promotions in England
Neil Warnock has announced his retirement from football after 42 years in management.
The 73-year-old who managed 16 clubs during his career revealed on Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday that he is not going to go back into management.
His last job was at Middlesbrough who left via mutual consent back in November.
Neil Warnock has announced his retirement from football management after 42 years
Warnock managed 16 different clubs over more than four decades in management
On Soccer Saturday, when asked by presenter Jeff Stelling whether he would return to management, he said: 'No, I've got one or two interesting things coming up.
'I'm looking forward to doing a few evening things around the country.
'I'm doing one in Cardiff and one in Sheffield in September, they're the friendly places.
'I said I need to go to Ipswich or Bristol where they'll give me a stick.'
He went on to add: 'I just thought it was the right time, really, coming towards the end of the season, there's not really a job you're going to get before then
'I've had a good run really. I'm enjoying things I've not done for years, I'm having a lot of time with the family, my dogs and I've taken up cycling too.
'I'm not saying the enthusiasm's gone, I've not lost that, but when I see some of my friends who are struggling health wise, there comes a time where you have to let your family enjoy a little bit more of your time, in particular my wife Sharon.
'When you're a manager you're very selfish, you take your job home with you whether you're on a high or a low and it's very difficult for your wife and kids.
'It's hard to replicate the final whistle when you're won a game, there's nothing quite like that in normal life, and you have to realise you're not going to get that buzz again in that situation. But I'm doing a couple of evenings in the theatre, and I imagine I'll still be nervous before them!"
Stelling in response joked that there was a 'collective sigh of relief' among referee's and fourth officials who 'know they're relatively secure'.
Warnock holds the English record for the manager with most promotions which includes with Huddersfield Town in 1995 where he is seen holding the Division 2 play-off trophy
Warnock gained a fierce reputation on the dug-out particularly against referees
In total Warnock managed 1,603 games across his managerial career, winning a record eight Football League promotions and leading Sheffield United, Queens Park Rangers and Cardiff to the Premier League.
He also holds the record for the most games managed in English professional football.
Warnock began his managerial career with Gainsborough Trinity and Burton Albion before leading Scarborough into the Football League in 1986-87. From there he led Notts County to back-to-back promotions and into the First Division for 1991-92.
He holds the record for most games managed in professional English football
He won his third Football League promotion through the play-offs with Huddersfield in 1994/95, before adding a fourth with Plymouth a year later.
He had his first taste of Premier League management when he led boyhood club Sheffield United to the top flight in 2005/06, and returned there with QPR in 2010-11.
Warnock later guided Cardiff to the Premier League in 2017-18 in what would be his penultimate role before joining Middlesbrough.
During his career he also gained a fierce reputation for his combative nature on the sidelines - usually with officials.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — President Ebrahim Raisi said Saturday that Iran will continue nuclear development activities as talks to revive Tehran’s nuclear deal with world powers remain stalled, state media reported.
Speaking in a ceremony marking Iran's national day of nuclear technology, the hard-line president said his administration will support an acceleration in research of peaceful nuclear technology.
“Our knowledge and technology in the nuclear field is not reversible. Iran's (continuation of) research in peaceful nuclear fields will not depend on others' demands or viewpoints,” said Raisi, who came to power in August.
Raisi's comments came as talks between Iran and world powers in Vienna to revive the 2015 nuclear deal have stalled. There is concern that Iran could be closer to being able to construct an atomic weapon if it chose to pursue one.
The nuclear deal collapsed four years ago when former President Donald Trump withdrew the United States and imposed crushing sanctions on Iran. In the meantime, Iran has vastly expanded its nuclear work.
Iran has long insisted that its nuclear program has had peaceful purposes like generating electric power and medical isotopes.
During Saturday's ceremony, Iran displayed its new civil nuclear achievements, including several medical isotopes, agricultural pesticides, detoxification equipment and nuclear fuel material. The report did not elaborate.
The head of Iran’s civilian Atomic Energy Organization, Mohammad Eslami, said Iran will soon pursue construction of a new nuclear power plant with 360-megawatt capacity. It is to be located near the town of Darkhovin in oil-rich Khuzestan province in the country's southwest.
The plant was supposed to be built before the 1979 Islamic Revolution with help from France but the project was halted in its initial phase. The site became a major battlefield in the 8-year war between Iran and Iraq that began in 1980.
Iran’s sole nuclear power plant, with 1,000-megawatt capacity, went online in 2011 with help from Russia in the southern port city of Bushehr.
Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium continues to grow and it is currently enriching it at up to 60% purity. That's the highest level ever by Iran and is a short technical step from weapons-grade levels of 90%. It is far greater than the nuclear deal’s 3.67% cap.
Meanwhile on Saturday, Iran imposed symbolic sanctions on more U.S. officials over their roles in harming Iran, the country’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The 16-person list included George William Casey, former commander of American forces in Iraq; CENTCOM former commander Joseph Votel; former commander of American forces in Afghanistan Austin Scott Miller; U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Dorothy Shea and other U.S. officials from the former Trump administration.
From time to time, Iran adds to a long list of sanctioned Americans. In January, Iran sanctioned more than 50 Americans for their alleged roles in killing a top Iranian general in Iraq in 2020. In 2021 Iran imposed sanctions on Trump, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and eight others.
The sanctions ban the targeted persons from travel to Iran and possible confiscation of their assets in Iran. They are seen as symbolic as the Americans don’t have any assets in Iran.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — The Idaho Supreme Court on Friday temporarily blocked a new state law that would ban abortions after about six weeks of pregnancy and allow the law to be enforced through lawsuits.
Idaho last month had become the first state to enact legislation modeled after the Texas statute banning abortions after about six weeks. The ruling from Idaho’s high court in a lawsuit brought by Planned Parenthood means the new law won’t go into effect as planned on April 22.
The state Supreme Court instructed both sides to file further briefs as it considers the case before its ultimate decision.
Republican Gov. Brad Little last month signed into law the measure that would’ve allowed people who would have been family members to sue doctors who perform abortions after cardiac activity is detected in embryos. But when he signed it, Little said he had concerns about whether the law was constitutional.
The law would allow the father, grandparents, siblings, aunts and uncles of a “preborn child” to each sue an abortion provider for a minimum of $20,000 in damages within four years after the abortion. Rapists can’t file a lawsuit under the law, but a rapist’s relatives could.
Planned Parenthood of Great Northwest, Hawaii, Alaska, Indiana and Kentucky had called the law unconstitutional.
“We are thrilled that abortion will remain accessible in the state for now, but our fight to ensure that Idahoans can fully access their constitutionally protected rights is far from over,” Rebecca Gibron, interim CEO of Planned Parenthood Great Northwest, Hawaii, Alaska, Indiana and Kentucky, said in a statement after Friday’s court action.
The decision comes amid a nationwide fight over access to abortion. The U.S. Supreme Court’s conservative majority signaled willingness in a Mississippi case to severely erode or even strike down Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that made abortion legal nationwide until a baby can survive outside the womb. Numerous states with Republican majorities are poised to follow the strictest interpretation of the ruling.
If Roe is overturned, 26 states are certain or likely to quickly ban abortion, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a think tank that supports abortion rights.
The Idaho law was modeled after a Texas law that the U.S. Supreme Court has allowed to remain in place until a court challenge is decided on its merits. The Texas law allows people to enforce the law in place of state officials who normally would do so. The Texas law authorizes lawsuits against clinics, doctors and anyone who “aids or abets” an abortion that is not permitted by law.
Backers had said the law is Idaho’s best opportunity to severely restrict abortions in the state after years of trying.
When he signed the bill, Idaho’s governor noted his concerns with the legislation.
“Deputizing private citizens to levy hefty monetary fines on the exercise of a disfavored but judicially recognized constitutional right for the purpose of evading court review undermines our constitutional form of government and weakens our collective liberties,” Little wrote.
He said that he worried some states might use the same approach to limit gun rights.
The Attorney General’s office, representing the state, had said the case should start in the state’s district courts, working its way up to the high court.
Planned Parenthood’s attorneys balked.
“In the State’s apparent view, the more unconstitutional the law, the less appropriate for extraordinary relief. That gets things backwards: The state should not be able to evade this Court’s review by violating multiple provisions of the Idaho Constitution instead of just one.”

ISLAMABAD (AP) — A defiant Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Friday that he is in a fight to protect the country’s sovereignty and called his supporters to the streets to defy opponents determined to unseat him.
Khan delivered an impassioned televised address to the nation on the eve of a no-confidence vote in parliament, a day after Pakistan’s Supreme Court blocked his bid to stay in power, ruling that his move to dissolve Parliament and call early elections was illegal.
Thursday’s court decision set the stage for a no-confidence vote, with opposition lawmakers saying they have the 172 votes in the 342-seat assembly needed to unseat Khan, after several of his ruling party members and a small, but key, coalition partner defected.
In his speech, Khan urged Pakistanis — particular the country’s young who have been the backbone of his support since the former cricket star turned conservative Islamist politician came to power in 2018 — to rally countrywide on Sunday night.
“All of you will have to come out on Sunday after evening prayer to protest, to peacefully protest … I again say that should never indulge in violence,” he said. ”It should be a peaceful protest.”
He vowed not to accept the results of the no-confidence vote on Saturday — an indication he was aware he will likely lose the vote.
“You have to come out to protect your own future. It is you who have to protect your democracy, your sovereignty, and your independence … this is your duty,” he said.
Pakistan’s latest political crisis erupted last Sunday, when Khan sidestepped the opposition’s initial no-confidence petition — a motion that had been weeks in the making — and instead accused his opponents of colluding with the United States to remove him.
Qasim Suri, Khan’s ally and deputy parliament speaker, dismissed the no-confidence vote on the grounds of collusion while his Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry described the opposition as being “disloyal to the state,” and accused them of colluding with a foreign power.
Khan dissolved Parliament and called early elections but the opposition went to the Supreme Court with its case.
After four days of deliberations, hearing arguments from both the opposition and Khan’s lawyers, the five-member bench unanimously ordered Parliament reinstated and the no-confidence vote to be held on Saturday.
For his part, Khan said he had wanted the Supreme Court to investigate communications between a senior U.S. diplomat, whom he did not name, and Pakistani diplomats — communications he claimed were proof of collusion.
Khan claimed America wanted him gone because of his foreign policy choices in favor of Russia and China, and a visit he made on Feb. 24 to Moscow, where he held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin as Russian tanks rolled into Ukraine. He has also said the U.S. dislikes his strident criticism of Washington’s war on terror.
The U.S. State Department has denied any involvement in Pakistan’s internal politics. Deputy State Department spokeswoman Jalina Porter told reporters on Friday that there was “absolutely no truth to these allegations.”
“Of course, we continue to follow these developments and support Pakistan’s constitutional process but again, these allegations are absolutely not true,” she said.
Khan’s political opposition runs the gambit of the political spectrum, from the left to the radically religious parties. The largest among the opposition parties — the Pakistan People’s Party and the Pakistan Muslim League — have been tainted by allegations of widespread corruption.
The Pakistan Muslim League leader and former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was convicted of corruption after being named in the so-called Panama Papers — a collection of leaked secret financial documents showing how some of the world’s richest hide their money and involving a global law firm based in Panama. He was disqualified by Pakistan’s Supreme Court from holding office.
If the opposition wins the no-confidence vote, it is up to Parliament to choose a new head of government — which could be Sharif’s brother, Shahbaz Sharif. If the lawmakers are unsuccessful, early elections would be called.
“I will not accept an imposed government,” Khan said Friday.
Khan’s options are limited and should he see a big turnout in his support, he may try to keep the momentum of street protests as a way to pressure Parliament. But with his supporters being mostly the young, who make up the majority in Pakistan, he also risks an outbreak of violence.
“Khan tapped into a potent vein of anti-American sentiment in Pakistan that is unlikely to dissipate any time soon,” Elizabeth Threlkeld, Pakistan expert at the U.S.-based The Stimson Center, told The Associated Press.
Pakistan’s military, which has consistently stepped in during many past turmoil engulfing a democratically elected government, has remained quiet in the latest crisis. The army has seized power and ruled for more than half of Pakistan’s 75-year history.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — President Ebrahim Raisi said Saturday that Iran will continue nuclear development activities as talks to revive Tehran’s nuclear deal with world powers remain stalled, state media reported.
Speaking in a ceremony marking Iran's national day of nuclear technology, the hard-line president said his administration will support an acceleration in research of peaceful nuclear technology.
“Our knowledge and technology in the nuclear field is not reversible. Iran's (continuation of) research in peaceful nuclear fields will not depend on others' demands or viewpoints,” said Raisi, who came to power in August.
Raisi's comments came as talks between Iran and world powers in Vienna to revive the 2015 nuclear deal have stalled. There is concern that Iran could be closer to being able to construct an atomic weapon if it chose to pursue one.
The nuclear deal collapsed four years ago when former President Donald Trump withdrew the United States and imposed crushing sanctions on Iran. In the meantime, Iran has vastly expanded its nuclear work.
Iran has long insisted that its nuclear program has had peaceful purposes like generating electric power and medical isotopes.
During Saturday's ceremony, Iran displayed its new civil nuclear achievements, including several medical isotopes, agricultural pesticides, detoxification equipment and nuclear fuel material. The report did not elaborate.
The head of Iran’s civilian Atomic Energy Organization, Mohammad Eslami, said Iran will soon pursue construction of a new nuclear power plant with 360-megawatt capacity. It is to be located near the town of Darkhovin in oil-rich Khuzestan province in the country's southwest.
The plant was supposed to be built before the 1979 Islamic Revolution with help from France but the project was halted in its initial phase. The site became a major battlefield in the 8-year war between Iran and Iraq that began in 1980.
Iran’s sole nuclear power plant, with 1,000-megawatt capacity, went online in 2011 with help from Russia in the southern port city of Bushehr.
Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium continues to grow and it is currently enriching it at up to 60% purity. That's the highest level ever by Iran and is a short technical step from weapons-grade levels of 90%. It is far greater than the nuclear deal’s 3.67% cap.
Meanwhile on Saturday, Iran imposed symbolic sanctions on more U.S. officials over their roles in harming Iran, the country’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The 16-person list included George William Casey, former commander of American forces in Iraq; CENTCOM former commander Joseph Votel; former commander of American forces in Afghanistan Austin Scott Miller; U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Dorothy Shea and other U.S. officials from the former Trump administration.
From time to time, Iran adds to a long list of sanctioned Americans. In January, Iran sanctioned more than 50 Americans for their alleged roles in killing a top Iranian general in Iraq in 2020. In 2021 Iran imposed sanctions on Trump, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and eight others.
The sanctions ban the targeted persons from travel to Iran and possible confiscation of their assets in Iran. They are seen as symbolic as the Americans don’t have any assets in Iran.

Today is: National Unicorn Day
News-Messenger/News Journal
USA Today Network
Today we celebrate unicorns: mythological animals that look like horses with horns on their foreheads. Although the holiday is observed all around the world, it has special significance in Scotland, where the unicorn is the national animal. Unicorns may not be real, but the concept of them goes back millennia, and they have been an ever-present part of culture.
Early depictions of unicorns appeared in Mesopotamian artwork, as well as in ancient myths in China and India. The Greek historian Ctesias referenced an animal with one horn in 400 BCE.
There have been other legends about the power of unicorn horns. "Powdered unicorn horns" were sold in some London pharmacies until the mid-18th century.

GRANTVILLE, Ga. (AP) — Authorities say three people are dead after a robbery at a gun range in Georgia.
The Grantville Police Department said via Facebook that the robbery occurred Friday evening. When officers arrived at the scene around 8 p.m., they discovered the owner of Lock Stock & Barrel Shooting had been killed, along with his wife and grandson.
Some 40 weapons and a video camera were taken. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is investigating. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was also called in due to the amount of weapons taken.
The shooting range is in rural Coweta County, about 50 miles (about 80 kilometers) southeast of Atlanta.
Police are looking for witnesses and have not announced any arrests.

Which path lights are best?
Nothing adds warmth and curb appeal to the front of your house like a good set of path lights. Whether you opt for wired ones or go for the ease and versatility of solar lights, a well-lit path makes your home look clean and well cared for.
When you’re looking for easy-to-install, attractive path lights that won’t break the bank, Solpex 8-Pack Solar Pathway Lights are the top choice.
What to know before you buy path lights
Solar vs. wired
You can either wire your path lights into your existing electrical system or place lights that get their energy from the sun.
- Electric lights tend to have a longer life and brighter light, but add the cost and time of wiring them into your home’s electrical system. Even if you only have to plug them in, you have to devise a way to get the wire from them to the outlet, making sure no one will trip on it and no unsightly wires are visible.
- Solar lights are much easier to install, but tend to give fainter light that is dependent on getting enough sun. In the winter, this may mean that your path lights will look faint or won’t light up.
Their lumen rating
A path light’s lumen rating indicates how bright it is. A 10-lumen light casts a faint glow, while a 40-lumen light offers real light for a dark area.
Whether the light they emit is warm or cool
- Warm light can add an air of romance to the walk. It’s best suited for classic-style homes such as colonials, Victorians and Queen Annes.
- Cool light adds a modern, fresh air and looks great in front of newer houses, or those with large windows or more angular architecture.
What to look for in quality path lights
A great pattern on the glass
Wavy glass or a fun art deco stain will add visual interest to your path beyond just adding illumination. So if you like something more than just light, look for path lights with patterned glass or framing to cast interesting shadows.
The right height
Tall lanterns look best near plantings and flowers while shorter path lights look great near grass. You may also opt for in-ground lights that shine upward near grass or other ground covering to add a glow without a visible path light.
Durability
Spending a little more to get a set of solid-construction lights will save on the replacement cost of less expensive but easily broken ones. If you live in a region with heavy winters and significant snowfall — and you don’t take your lights in for the winter — buy a sturdier variety.
How much you can expect to spend on path lights
An inexpensive set of solar path lights can cost around $25, with a sturdier, wired set running around $80-$100.
Path lights FAQ
How long will solar path lights last?
A. The average life of a solar path light is two to six years, with sturdier, more expensive brands lasting longer. To extend your lights’ life, bring them in during extreme weather and keep them clean and free of debris.
Do solar lights go dark on rainy days?
A. On average, no. That’s for the same reason you still have to wear sunblock on cloudy days: ultraviolet light still gets through, enough to charge the solar battery. Solar lights even get some charge on winter days, although above a certain latitude, that charge is faint and will not power the light through the whole night.
What are the best path lights to buy?
Top path lights
What you need to know: They create a fun, interesting pattern of light on your walkway that adds visual interest.
What you’ll love: Unless you have a very long walkway, this eight-light set gives you enough sturdy, attractive lights to illuminate it all. The snowflake pattern is fun and easily seen from the street. Installation is as easy as turning on the switch and using the enclosed stakes to put them in the ground.
What you should consider: They put off cool light that may not be a great match for older architecture.

Which snorkel set is best?
Whether you live near the ocean or are planning a vacation to the beach, a snorkel set lets you see an underwater world you might otherwise miss. While you can often rent snorkels, your gear will fit better if you buy your own. Consider what you need from your snorkel set and how often you plan on using it before you make your purchase.
The WildHorn Outfitters Seaview 180-Degree V2 Full-Face Snorkel Mask uses Flowtech technology to make breathing underwater easier than competitors. This makes it an excellent choice for novices and experienced snorkelers alike.
What to know before you buy a snorkel set
Mask
The mask is an important part of a snorkel set. You’ll find there are three types of snorkel masks available: two-lens, single-lens and full-face mask.
- Two-lens snorkel masks have individual lenses, similar to a pair of glasses. This gives them a low internal volume, so they’re easier to clear if water gets inside them.
- Single-lens snorkel masks have one lens to give you a clear, uninterrupted view of your surroundings.
- Full-face snorkel masks seal around the whole face, including the mouth. The snorkel is integrated into the mask, so you don’t need to hold any parts with your hands. Just breathe normally into the mask.
Snorkel
The snorkel is the tube you breathe through while snorkeling. Open snorkels are the most basic option, while dry and semi-dry snorkels offer a better experience.
- Open snorkels are fully open at the top (the end that sticks out of the water.) This means water can splash inside, especially if you dive below the surface. You can empty them out, but it’s annoying and can cause problems if you accidentally breathe in before clearing out the water.
- Semi-dry snorkels have a valve at the top to keep water from splashing inside. However, it won’t keep water out if you dive below the water’s surface. They’re good for people who plan to float on top of the water.
- Dry snorkels have a valve system that closes off and keeps water out when you dive below the surface. This is the best choice for experienced and adventurous snorkelers.
Fins
Some snorkel sets come with fins. Although fins aren’t essential for diving, they make it easier to propel yourself through the water. You’ll spend less energy swimming with fins, so they’re ideal for those who want to snorkel for long periods without tired.
What to look for in a quality snorkel set
Sizing options
Some snorkel models only come in adult or child size. Others have small, medium and large versions, which can help you get a better fit.
Silicone skirt
The skirt of a snorkel mask is the seal around the edge. A silicone skirt makes your snorkeling more comfortable while creating a decent, watertight seal around your face.
Non-fogging lenses
Some masks have non-fogging lenses. While they’re not 100% effective, they can significantly reduce fogging in your mask.
How much you can expect to spend on a snorkel set
Basic snorkeling sets cost around $20-$30, which work well for occasional snorkeling. Serious snorkelers should expect to pay $100-$200 for a high-quality kit.
Snorkel set FAQ
Can you go fully underwater with a snorkel?
A. Yes, you can dive down underwater while wearing a snorkel. However, you won’t be able to breathe while you’re under the water. You can only breathe through your snorkel when the top end of the tube is above the water’s surface. Quick dives allow you to get a closer look at sea life, but you can only stay down there as long as you hold your breath. And unless you have a dry snorkel, you’ll need to empty the snorkel of any water once you reach the surface.
Can beginners snorkel?
A. Yes! First-timer snorkelers should go with a buddy and stick relatively close to shore or to the vessel they’re snorkeling from. If you aren’t a strong swimmer, buy an inflatable snorkel vest. These keep users buoyant, so all they need to do is kick their legs to move around. Make sure to take time and learn a little about the tides and water conditions where you’ll be snorkeling before you jump in the water.
What’s the best snorkel set to buy?
Top snorkel set
WildHorn Outfitters Seaview 180-Degree V2 Full-Face Snorkel Mask
What you need to know: This high-end mask and snorkel is a great choice for serious snorkelers.
What you’ll love: The full-face mask gives you a better view of your surroundings. The one-way valve makes breathing easier while keeping water out of your snorkel. It has an action camera mount to help you record your adventures, too.
What you should consider: The seal around the nose is unreliable and can cause fogging.
Where to buy: Sold by Amazon
Top snorkel set for the money
What you need to know: Perfect for all ages, this basic dry snorkel set comes in child and adult sizes.
What you’ll love: The adult sizes have a choice of three colors: black, blue and pink. The kids sizes offer these colors plus yellow, aqua and rose. The mask has anti-fog lenses and a silicone face seal.
What you should consider: It’s fine for occasional use, but anyone who snorkels regularly will need something more durable.
Where to buy: Sold by Amazon
Worth checking out
Cressi Scuba Diving Snorkeling Kit
What you need to know: This decent, midrange set contains a mask and a dry snorkel. It’s a good upgrade from a basic model.
What you’ll love: The single lens mask gives better visibility than those with two separate lenses. Thanks to the comfortable skirt and mouthpiece, you snorkel for longer. The mask strap is easy to adjust.
What you should consider: Some users found the mask prone to fogging, but this may depend on fit and conditions.

Power blackout: Electricity lost in large parts of Nigeria
- Published
Many Nigerians have once again been left without state-supplied electricity for hours on end, three weeks after the president apologised for the last nationwide outage.
A system failure on the national grid at about 18:30 local time (17:30 GMT) on Friday evening is to blame, distribution companies have said.
They have assured customers that work is underway to restore power.
Local media report that this is the fifth such collapse this year.
Electricity providers - including Abuja Electricity Distribution, Kaduna Electric and Eko Electricity Distribution - took to social media to apologise and explain what happened.
The BBC's Ishaq Khalid in Abuja says Nigeria generates too little electricity to supply its population of 200 million people, generally hovering at around 4,000 megawatts a day.
Last month Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari said he deeply regretted the inconvenience caused to people across the country by simultaneous fuel shortages and a national power grid collapse.
At the time, he added that the government had worked "tirelessly" to fix problems at thermal stations, which had coincided with a "dip in hydroelectric generation due to seasonal pressures".

Coimbatore Corporation to replace damaged play materials in children’s park
Coimbatore Corporation is in the process of replacing damaged play materials in the children’s park, near V.O.C. Park. Central
Central Zone Chairperson Meena Loganathan, who visited the park on Saturday morning, said she had asked the engineers concerned to prepare estimate to repair and replace the damaged play materials after it came to light that a child was injured while playing in the slide in the park.
The Corporation keeping under lock and key the park for two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic restriction had led to a deterioration in the maintenance of the play materials. But with the restriction getting lifted, the Corporation should have had a look at their current condition, Ms. Loganathan said and added that there was an urgent necessity to get the materials repaired or replaced because the summer holiday was not far off. The Corporation engineers would prepare estimate for repair and replacement, present it to her on Monday and the Central Zone would immediately approve of those as fund was readily available. Ms. Loganathan visited the park in her capacity as the chairperson. That she was not accompanied by the Chairperson of the Committee on Education, Parks and Playfields N. Malathi had raised eyebrows. Ms. Malathi was not available for comment.

New Delhi:
Tesla CEO
Elon Musk on Saturday took to micro blogging site twitter to voice his concern against rising cost of lithium--a key raw material in batteries that power
electric vehicles across the globe, even going on to suggest that the company would have to get into direct mining and refining at scale if costs do not improve.
High demand for electric vehicles globally has created a demand supply mismatch and lithium prices have recorded the steepest rise in a year in 2022 in well over two decades. Prices rose steadily from $ 4,450 per tonne in 2012 to $ 17,000 per tonne in 2021 but have risen over four fold to more than $ 78,000 per tonne so far in 2022.
"Price of lithium has gone to insane levels! Tesla might actually have to get into the mining & refining directly at scale, unless costs improve," Musk tweeted. "There is no shortage of the element itself, as lithium is almost everywhere on Earth, but pace of extraction/refinement is slow."
"We have some cool ideas for sustainable lithium extraction and refinement," he added in another tweet.
Even as lithium prices have been on the rise, prices of batteries have fallen sharply over the decade on the back of more research, advanced chemistries and better packaging. But the steep rise in lithium prices is certain to impact battery prices as well.
According to a Bloomberg NEF estimate from November last year, lithium ion battery pack prices fell sharply from $ 1220 per KWh (kilo-watt hour) to just $ 140 in 2020. In 2021 though, the fall had been a modest 6 percent at $ 132 per KWh and Bloomberg estimated a marginal rise in price to $ 135 per KWh in 2022 adding that battery prices were likely to fall below the magical $ 100 per KWh when they achieve price parity with their fossil fuel counterparts, only by 2024. That was five months ago though and did not account for the steep rise in the price of the metal this year. A revised estimate would likely show a sharper spike for 2022.
High prices of lithium would also impact the electric mobility story in India as well. The country does not have any significant lithium resources of its own and relies on imports. Already, companies have started to feel the pinch and prices of electric vehicles have started to go up.
Last month, Ola Electric founder Bhavish Aggarwal said prices of the S1 Pro scooter would go up when the company opens the window for the next round of bookings. Arch rival Tarun Mehta or Ather had also complained about high commodity prices in general.
"These commodity prices are CRAZY! It's the strength of the auto market that businesses are still on," Mehta had tweeted on March 15.

Soccer-Neil Warnock retires after 41 years in management
April 9 (Reuters) - Neil Warnock announced his retirement from football on Saturday at the age of 73, bringing the curtain down on a record-breaking career spanning more than four decades.
Warnock, a former winger who started his managerial career in 1980, last managed second-tier club Middlesbrough before leaving the Championship side by mutual consent in November.
The veteran managed sides in 1,603 games and achieved promotion eight times in his career - both marking records in English professional football. He also shares the record for most promotions to the top flight (four) and managed 14 different clubs across the top four tiers.
"I just thought it was the right time, really, coming towards the end of the season, there's not really a job you're going to get before then," Warnock told Sky Sports.
"I've had a good run really."
After a string of appointments in the lower leagues, Warnock won promotion to the Premier League with boyhood club Sheffield United, before going on to manage Queens Park Rangers, Crystal Palace and Cardiff City in the top flight.
He was manager at Cardiff when they signed Argentine striker Emiliano Sala, who died in a plane crash flying over from France to complete his move in January 2019.
Warnock, who attended the player's funeral in Argentina, spoke at the time of his anguish at the initial disappearance of Sala's plane, describing it as the "most difficult week" of his career.
The 73-year-old said he had not lost any of the enthusiasm needed to manage another team but had decided he wanted to spend more time with his family.
"I'm enjoying things I've not done for years, I'm having a lot of time with the family, my dogs. And I've taken up cycling, too," he added.
"I'm not saying the enthusiasm's gone, I've not lost that.

What you need to start an ant farm
Ant colonies in the wild may seem like an unwanted infestation at times, but in reality they represent a complex insect society worthy of study. Although scientific ant habitats called formicaria can be traced back to the 1920s, it wasn’t until 1956 that a California businessman and ant enthusiast introduced the first consumer-friendly ant farm. Uncle Milton’s Ant Farm was heavily promoted in comic books, and teachers were encouraged to set up their own versions in classrooms.
In ease of use and level of financial investment, ant farms are still one of the best ways to set up a living display in a home or classroom. The largest expenses are the ants, which should be purchased from authorized vendors. Everything else, from the formicarium to the medium and food, can be ordered online or at scientific supply outlets.
Preparing for a new ant farm
Types of ant farms
There are essentially two types of ant farms in the consumer market. The original Uncle Milton’s ant farm was considered “sandwich-style,” meaning the transparent plastic container has two narrow sides. The ants and media are sandwiched between them, which creates tunnels and nesting areas that can be easily observed. A sandwich-style ant farm is ideal for home use and most classroom settings.
A larger form of ant farm would be considered a true formicarium, designed to simulate the natural environment surrounding an ant colony. The ants and media (typically silica or loose soil) are placed in a terrarium with vegetation and water. This is a better fit for dedicated science classrooms because of its size and maintenance.
Site preparation
Decide the ant farm’s location before you buy it. The area should not experience direct sunlight or extreme swings in temperature. The display should be elevated enough for comfortable observation, but not close to a high-traffic area where accidents are possible. Lighting should be strong enough to view the ants but not generate excessive heat. While escapes are rare, the site should also have some sort of containment field to keep escapees in check.
Types of ants
There are hundreds of ant species, but only a handful are recommended for setting up an ant colony. The most common are red harvester ants and carpenter ants. Both species are noted for non-aggressive behavior and natural socializing skills. Their larger size also makes them easier to observe.
While other species of ants can often be found in the wild, it is not a good idea to transplant them directly into an ant farm. Some ants can be aggressive and destructive, while others do not perform well in captivity, especially without their queen. Live ants suitable for ant farms can be shipped through the mail from special supply stores, although a number of states prohibit their transportation across state lines.
Setting up an ant farm
Decide on a medium
Traditional ant farms in the Uncle Milton sandwich style often use a mix of organic ingredients, primarily silica sand, soil, mineral fragment and vermiculite. This is a good choice for smaller ant farms because the ants are familiar with it and will construct stable tunnels and nesting areas. The soil and minerals also provide nutrients for the colony.
Modern ant farms have largely replaced the sand/soil mix with a water-based gel. This gel is transparent enough to observe the ants, especially with LED lighting. The ants can usually form tunnels and nests, although some colonies may not survive as long in the gel. They can derive moisture and nutrients from it, however.
Introduce the ants to the container
Once the medium has been added to the tank or terrarium, it’s time to add the ants. If they have been refrigerated for shipping, they may appear sluggish at first, but should begin the task of setting up a colony within an hour of introduction. If a queen is included, the workers will create a series of nests for her to lay her eggs. A queen-less colony will spend its time digging tunnels and locating sources of food and water.
Queen or no queen?
In an ant society, much like a bee society, workers and drones instinctively serve a dominant queen. They feed her, guard her nests and fertilize her eggs. However, you can install an ant colony without a queen. The colony will not reproduce, but it will perform many of the same duties.
Some ant farm owners opt for a colony with a queen so they can observe the colony’s entire life cycle. Others choose not to include a queen in order to keep the colony at a manageable size, replacing ants as necessary. There is no right answer, but the ant farm’s purpose may point in one direction or the other.
Maintaining an ant farm
Provide food and water
In the wild, ant colonies send workers to gather sources of sugar and protein, such as leaves, berries, fruits and insects. However, in an ant farm this task falls on humans. Ants in captivity do not require large amounts of food or water to survive, but they still need nutrition.
There are commercial ant food blends, but for the most part ant farm owners can supply their own sugar sources such as sliced apples, grapes, nontoxic plant leaves and sugar cubes. Protein sources include mealworms, crickets, cockroaches or pieces of cooked egg.
A water source could be created from a bottle cap or other small container. Ants can also derive some moisture from the gel medium or natural condensation. Be sure to remove any uneaten food to avoid mold growth. Many ants will create their own site for garbage disposal and burial of the dead.
Replace medium and ants as necessary
The fill medium in an ant farm generally has a long shelf life, but it can become contaminated from rotting food. You may need to transfer the ants to another vessel temporarily while you replace it. Consider this carefully if the colony has a queen and active nests.
The ants will probably need to be replaced periodically as workers die or there is no reproduction cycle. Carefully remove as many dead ants as possible, then order live replacements of the same species. Mixing different ant species can be dangerous, because some are notably more aggressive than others. A mixed colony could terminate itself quickly or pose a stinging or biting threat to young observers.

BEAUMONT, Texas (AP) — Seven inmates have been charged with killing two fellow prisoners and wounding two others during a January attack at a federal prison in Texas that led to a nationwide lockdown of the federal prison system.
The 15-count indictment filed this week includes charges of racketeering, murder and attempted murder against Juan Carolos Rivas-Moreiera; Dimas Alfaro-Granados; Raul Landaverde-Giron; Larry Navarete; Jorge Parada; Hector Ramires; and Sergio Sibrian.
The seven remain in federal custody and court documents do not list attorneys who could speak on their behalf.
The Jan. 31 attack was inside USP Beaumont in Beaumont, Texas. Prosecutors say the seven are members of the violent MS-13 gang and attacked rival gang members of the Mexican Mafia and its affiliate, the Sureños.
“Deterring prison violence remains a priority for the Department,” U.S. Attorney Brit Featherston of the Eastern District of Texas said in a statement Thursday. “Any prisoner who causes physical injury to another, inmate or corrections officer, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
Each of the seven could face the death penalty if convicted on the murder charges, the indictment states.
According to the indictment, the MS-13 maintained a relationship with the Mexican Mafia and Sureños for protection in prisons.
“However, that symbiotic relationship recently began to fall apart as MS-13’s leadership in El Salvador sought to exert more control and independence of its own members while incarcerated in prisons within the United States,” the indictment stated.
The change led the seven to conspire to kill members of Mexican Mafia and the Sureños, according to the indictment.
The indictment said Sureños member and Mexican Mafia associate Guillermo Riojas and Sureños member Andrew Pineda were fatally stabbed during the attack and two Sureños members were wounded.

Which external hard drives for Xbox One are best?
When the first video games were released, they comfortably fit onto several floppy disks. As the games became better, the format changed to 700MB CDs and eventually 4.2GB DVDs. Naturally, you needed a hard drive to store all the data as well.
Today, as digital downloads have become more prevalent than physical disks, the need for an external hard drive is growing. Gaming consoles have not been spared the limitations on storage, which is why you’ll need something like the Seagate Game Drive Hub for Xbox One. Check out the Best Reviews buying guide for a complete list of options.
What to know before you buy an external hard drive for Xbox One
Size and placement
Depending on the design of the hard drive casing, it can be a rather bulky device. Generally, you cannot use external hard drives in horizontal and vertical positions, making placement a lot easier. Consider the size of the hard drive and where you will place it to ensure that it is both out of the way and accessible to the Xbox One console.
Storage capacity
External hard drives for Xbox One come in a variety of storage sizes. The console has a built-in hard drive, but that can fill up quickly if you have a lot of data. Analyze your gaming habit and library to determine what size hard drive will be sufficient for your purposes.
Additional components
An external hard drive will connect to the Xbox One console through a supplied USB cable. But that isn’t the only way you can use it. Some manufacturers sell additional components that allow you to clip the drive directly onto the console. If that is the case, then you might want to consider some extra cooling options.
What to look for in a quality external hard drive for Xbox One
High-speed data transfer
It is vitally important that you use an external hard drive with a high-speed rate of data transfer. If you want to download the enhanced versions of Xbox games, you can only do so on high-speed drives. A good quality external hard drive for an Xbox One will have around 200MB per second transfer speed. Solid-state drives can go as fast as 540MB per second.
Sturdy case
Protecting your hard drive is the best way also to protect your data. Since the drive is in place, it should be moved around, especially when in use. A quality hard drive will have a sturdy case to protect the external hard drive from light bumps and handling.
USB connectivity
The only connection method of an external hard drive is through the USB cable. Coupled with the hard drive’s transfer speed, the USB speed also plays a vital role. A good quality external hard drive will have a USB 3.0 port and support the corresponding speeds.
How much you can expect to spend on an external hard drive for Xbox One
The cost of an external hard drive for your Xbox will depend on the brand and the drive’s storage capacity. Smaller drives can retail for around $80, while bigger storage options can cost as much as $200.
External hard drive for Xbox One FAQ
Can you use any hard drive with an Xbox One?
A. Yes, as long as the hard drive can connect to the Xbox through a USB connection and is formatted to the correct filing system. The Xbox can do that for you.
Do I need a solid-state drive or a hard disk drive?
A. The difference between an SSD and an HDD will be the rate of transfer. SSDs tend to be more expensive than HDD but operate at a much faster transfer speed. The storage capacity of SSDs is generally also less than HDD.

Detectives are closing in on the suspect responsible for opening fire near a Bronx high school Friday afternoon and striking three teenagers, one fatally, walking out after dismissal.
A person of interest was being questioned by police Saturday morning in connection to the rain of bullets that claimed the life of 16-year-old Angellyh Yambo and injured two others, two senior NYPD officials with direct knowledge of the investigation said.
At least six shell casings were recovered from the corner of Saint Ann's Avenue and East 156th Street in the Mott Haven section of the Bronx, where Yambo was shot in the chest. A second 16-year-old girl was shot in the leg and a 17-year-old boy shot in the the buttocks, police said at a press conference. Both are expected to survive.
The three students, who police say were unknown to each other, had recently been let out of school nearby when the shooter opened fire around 1:45 p.m.
“We believe that they are coming from school, that they were headed home,” Deputy Police Chief Timothy McCormack told reporters at a brief news conference.
Video recovered from the area that captured the deadly barrage of gunfire allegedly shows the gunman in a heated exchange with a group of men across the street at the intersection. The senior officials said hand gestures made between the men are "consistent with gang affiliation."
News
Additional videos track the suspect eastbound on East 156th Street where police located the man at his residence on East 161th Street, the officials said Saturday. Detectives were working to obtain a search warrant for his home.
Police patrolling outside the apartment of the person of interest witnessed a black bag thrown out of his window. The two senior officials said officers searched the bag and found an unloaded black ghost gun.

Malaysia: Missing British diver found after drifting at sea - but says son died as he was 'too weak'
Adrian Peter Chesters said his 14-year-old son Nathan had died at sea "as he was too weak and could not survive", according to the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency.
Saturday 9 April 2022 13:47, UK
A British man and French woman who disappeared while diving off the coast of Malaysia have been found after drifting at sea for more than two days - but the man has told authorities his son died.
Fishermen spotted Adrian Peter Chesters, 46, and Alexia Alexandra Molina, 18, at around 1am on Friday - a considerable distance south from where they had disappeared.
"Both individuals… are reported to be in stable condition," said Mersing district police chief Cyril Edward Nuing.
Mr Chesters said his 14-year-old son, Nathan Renze Chesters, had died at sea "as he was too weak and could not survive", according to the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency.
His body has not yet been recovered and Indonesian authorities have now taken over the search.
"We believe there is a high likelihood that he is no longer in Malaysian waters based on the movement of sea currents, as well as the time and location where the other victims were found," Mr Nuing said.
Mr Chesters, his son, and Ms Molina were among four people who went missing on Wednesday on a training dive near Tokong Sanggol, a small island off the southeastern town of Mersing.
The group's instructor, Kristine Grodem, 35, from Norway, was rescued on Thursday.
Ms Grodem told officials the group surfaced about an hour into their dive, but could not find their boat.
She was later separated from the others after being caught in strong currents.
Ms Grodem, who was rescued by a tugboat and airlifted to hospital, said she was training the other three, who were hoping to obtain advanced diving licences.
The boat operator who took them to the dive site was held after testing positive for drugs and has been detained for further investigation.

Gennady Golovkin v Ryota Murata: IBF champion unifies middleweight division with ninth-round knockout
Last updated on .From the section Boxing
Gennady Golovkin is the unified middleweight champion again after stopping Ryota Murata in nine rounds in Saitama in Japan.
The 40-year-old Kazakh added the WBA (Super) belt to his IBF title, reclaiming the belt he lost to Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez in their 2018 rematch.
Golovkin recovered from a slow start to stop Murata in his tracks with a counter right hand and the win puts 'Triple G' in pole position to fight Alvarez in a trilogy fight later this year.
Alvarez and Golovkin are yet to sign a deal for their highly anticipated third fight and the Mexican is due to move up to light-heavyweight to challenge WBA (Super) champion Dmitry Bivol on 7 May.
Murata, who won gold at the London 2012 Olympics, had success in the early rounds with some punishing body shots that appeared to knock the wind out of Golovkin.
But he remained patient, falling back on his famously stiff jab, and was able to snap back the head of Murata on a few occasions.
Murata was unable to build on his success to the body, allowing Golovkin to eventually take over in round five, when he was finally able to put combinations together.
A hard right hand from Golovkin in round six sent Murata's mouthpiece flying, although the Japanese fighter was able to stay on his feet.
Golovkin continued to try and punch through Murata's guard and was now in full flow, showing flashes of the fighter who had steamrollered most of his opponents down the years.
He stunned Murata in round nine, backing him on to the ropes before his visibly hurt opponent decided to push forward in a desperate attempt to turn the tide.
Bu Golovkin was able to read Murata's advances, step back and fire off a devastating right counter that finally put Murata down.
The towel from Murata's corner came in, giving Golovkin the 42nd win of his illustrious career.
"Murata is a true warrior who fought to the very end," Golovkin said.
"He is an Olympic champion, a middleweight champion, and despite what took place in front of his fans, we are extremely happy to have organised this event in Japan."

BORODYANKA, Ukraine — In the devastated town of Borodyanka, northwest of Kyiv, Natasha Romanenko has pushed paper into the bullet holes peppered across her windows.
It's to keep the cold out, she tells us.
"You can see, there are holes where they were shooting directly in our window when we were hiding there," she says, speaking through NPR's interpreter.
When Russian forces invaded and occupied the town, the damage was devastating. Ukrainian officials say Russia deliberately bombed civilian areas and that hundreds are still missing more than a week after the invading forces withdrew. Now, crews are sifting through the wreckage to see what — and who — survived.
We start to see signs of the destruction on the drive from Kyiv into Borodyanka. What should be a quick trip now takes hours as destroyed bridges mean more cars crowd onto the few reliable routes, and the military checkpoints create long lines on narrow roads.
We pass through the village of Dmitriovka and see a burned-out car near homes reduced to rubble. A little farther on, there is a flattened tank.
Then, another destroyed car that has the word "children" spray-painted in Russian along the side door.
We arrive on Borodyanka's main street — Central Street — with a humanitarian convoy that immediately begins handing out food and water.
It's here that we meet Natasha. She and her family spent a month hiding in a cramped, dark root cellar.
"What did we eat? Mostly potatoes," she says. "I had some spare oil, and I have a cow, so I had milk. And I went to my neighbor, I gave her some milk. She gave me some other things, some cheese. So this is how we survived. Our cow saved us."
Natasha takes us to the cellar, which is mostly filled with crates of potatoes. She explains that at night, they would lay a carpet over the crates and try to sleep on top of that, keeping warm under all the blankets they had.
In the final days of the occupation, Natasha says, a Russian soldier confronted her. She had ventured out to milk her cow, and he thought she was scouting Russian troop locations. She says he took her out to the middle of the road and pointed a gun to her head.
"He was threatening me," she says. "And what did I say to him? I said I just wish one thing: that he would see my face for the rest of his days, so he would never forget what he's done here."
The soldier spoke to someone else on his radio. Then, Natasha says, he let her go.
As the aid workers move through the main street, we break from the group, and the scale of the destruction starts to sink in. It's utter devastation everywhere you look.
There's an apartment building blackened from flames, with the middle collapsed from the bombing. The windows in all the storefronts have shattered and roofs have collapsed. There are burned vehicles in the streets, and most of the power lines are down and frayed on the ground.
Across from the destroyed apartment building, there's a small park with a monument in the middle. On top sits a giant bust of Taras Shevchenko, the famous Ukrainian poet. Bullet holes pierce his forehead.
The tall pillar that the bust rests on is cracked and crumbling from all the shrapnel. Three policemen are holding a ladder while another man stands nearby, ready to climb to the top.
Yaroslav Halubchik is an artist from Kyiv and has come here to help create an ad hoc art project — an instant memorial of sorts.
"We're calling it 'The Curing of Shevchenko' or 'The Healing of Shevchenko,' " he says.
Yaroslav steps up the ladder and starts to wrap a big gauze bandage around the bust's giant head. As he does that, a man in a Ukrainian military uniform comes up and asks him what he's doing.
Yaroslav explains that it's performance art, and the soldier seems satisfied. It turns out, he was worried that they were repairing it.
"In this case, it is vital that we keep this monument as it is right now, it shouldn't be touched," the soldier says. He adds that it's especially important because of who Shevchenko was.
"This is really important, because we all know that Shevchenko and other Ukrainian poets were always enemies of Russia," he explains. "I really hope that people will rebuild everything here as it was, but we should keep this as it is now."
We ask his name. He's Yevhen Nyshchuk — the former Ukrainian minister of culture. He's in the military now and based nearby.
We keep making our way down the main street. Building after building has collapsed from the bombardment of tank and rocket fire.
In the nearby town of Bucha, bodies were found in the street. Here, with so many collapsed structures, the worry is that bodies are still trapped underneath.
Several cranes carefully pick up debris, as recovery teams look for remains. There's a playground in front of one of the buildings and a woman is sitting there on a bench next to a slide, watching the recovery work.
Her name is Ludmila Boiko.
"My sister and her son lived here. This is what's left of them," she says, pointing to a pile of old notebooks. "His mother kept his old notebooks from school."
Ludmila found them scattered around the debris of the apartment building. That and some pictures, she says, are the only things she's found.
Ludmila's sister Olyna Vahnenko was 56. Her nephew, Yuri, was 24. He had just graduated from college.
They'd left their apartment and sought shelter. But on March 1, during a break in the shelling and bombing, Olyna and Yuri went back. Ludmila says they talked on the phone, and Olyna said they had been able to shower and eat some food.
An hour later, Russian forces destroyed the building.
"Our friends were trying to help us, but for four days, it was a huge fire here," Ludmila says. "And so first they were trying to fight the fire. They didn't have a chance to do excavations right away."
When the fire stopped, people started trying to look for survivors. Then shelling began again, and they had to flee.
After that, she says Russian forces were posted here, and nobody could get near the building.
Searching couldn't resume until a month after the attack. So Ludmila sat, and waited.
"I just want to see how they discover all the bodies that they assume should be there, and then probably I would like to do something like with DNA testing because I want to know for sure what happened," she says.
"I was so close with them that I don't even know how I should live now. How should I live in this place?"
The crane continues to slowly remove rubble from a collapsed building.
Soon, workers discover a woman's body. Ludmila climbs up the pile of rubble to look.
The body is removed, covered and placed next to three others found earlier that day.
Ludmila goes back to the playground and sits down, continuing her vigil.

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – Mermaids and mermen at heart can find apparel meant for them at the News Channel 8 Outdoors Expo & Boat Show this weekend at Armature Works.
“Mermade Florida” is owned by Gloria Haas, who travels the state selling her products full-time.
“I have eco-minded mermaid apparel featuring hand-drawn mermaids and mermen with original designs. Eco-minded meaning they are made from recycled plastic bottles,” Haas explained. “I have sun protection shirts. They have plant-based inks that are either soy or water and little to no chemicals used in the printing process. I have recycled cotton bags. All different types of recycled products.”
She said she creates the sayings and the basis of the designs, then has a few artists draw the mermaids and mermen by hand before her graphic designers puts the final image together.
Haas started her company in 2019 and said the break of “not doing anything in 2020” actually helped her. She decided to make a website to sell her shirts and said things took off from there.
“I was a musician full-time for over 10 years and so last year I switched over from doing that full-time to doing this and I was doing both at one point, so one of my shirt designs is ‘mermaid by day, siren by night’ and that’s actually the design from my band,” she said. “Because I was singing at night and doing this during the day and it was completely insane for awhile.”
She has since started to travel and work events and markets throughout the state. She attended last year’s Outdoors Expo & Boat Show, but said she loves the new location at Armature Works.
“I love being by the water, obviously!” Haas laughed.
Haas is committed to her craft and her travels with her cats.
“I just moved in to a van full time. Fulltime, hashtag van life, to also tow my little show shop that I bring with me, Sunny the Show Shop, and travel all around the state. I go down to the Keys for the Key West Mermaid Festival,” she said.
The News Channel 8 Outdoors Expo & Boat Show lasts through the weekend. A full list of events and seminars can be found online.

‘Ridiculous’ Benzema-Kane comparisons get Africa talking
By Joel Omotto
One of the debates raging intensely this week, in light of Karim Benzema’s star turn against Chelsea in midweek, was whether the Real Madrid hitman deserves to be considered as the outstanding striker in the world today.
Tottenham Hotspur frontman Harry Kane, whose mesmerising display inspired Spurs to a 5-1 demolition of Newcastle United at the start of the month, appears to be the player closest to rivalling the France attacker for the title of the world’s top hitman…at least according to Africa’s football fans.
Editors' Picks
- One goal in seven games: Why Salah's slump is concerning for Klopp, Liverpool and Man City
- Man Utd's gutless defeat at Everton underlines the size of Ten Hag's task

Benzema’s hat-trick gave Real Madrid a 3-1 first leg advantage in their Champions League quarter-final tie against Chelsea on Wednesday, having previously scored a hat-trick to eliminate Paris Saint-Germain in the Last 16.
The debate was fuelled by former Manchester City defender Micah Richards who, while working as a pundit recently, said: “In the last six months, he has convinced me that he is up there with Harry Kane and Robert Lewandowski,” to the astonishment of not just his fellow pundits Thierry Henry and Jamie Carragher, but also fans on the continent.
“Coming from someone who couldn't defend to save his own life,” said @joeyseas. “Harry [Kane] will be extremely thankful to God if he ever gets to the level Benzema is.”
“Kane cannot tie Karim Benzema’s laces. Respect,” was @MisterMadr1’s contribution.
Others cannot believe the four-time Champions League winner is being compared with a player who is yet to win a trophy. “You are a funny person. Benzema is a four-time champion of the Champions League. What is the history of Harry Kane? You should not have Twitter,” commented @hamda_ramos.
“Don’t be ridiculous! A four-time Champions League winner now at the level of someone who may not even win the Premier League in his career? Wake up please,” wrote @MaestroNAdjei.
For @KamyMadridista, Benzema did more in one match than Kane will ever achieve: “What are you talking about, brother? Benzema has made more history than your Kane in a single match.”
Some fans believe the comparison isn’t too far from reality, but that Kane needs to represent a more successful team in order to be considered on the Frenchman’s level.
“They are on the same level. Put Kane in a better team and he becomes the best striker in the world,” said @mykelz_ with @Mullah_aminulla agreeing with him.
“Not talking about trophies or achievements, we are talking about individual professionalism. Big Benz got a team capable of challenging all honours, while you can't say the same about his counterpart [Kane].
“Kane has average players within his circle yet he keeps on performing week in week out,” shared @Mullah_aminulla.
Benzema has scored 37 goals in all competitions this season with Madrid top of the Liga table and still in Champions League while Kane has netted 22 times as Spurs chase a top four finish, having been knocked out of all cup competitions.

AUSTIN (KXAN) — Nine people were taken to the hospital Friday night after a T-bone crash between two vehicles pushed one of the cars into a food truck and a group of pedestrians in Austin, Texas.
Austin-Travis County EMS said first responders started getting multiple calls about the crash around 8:18 p.m., and by 8:24 p.m., its first ambulance arrived on scene.
A woman who spoke with Nexstar’s KXAN said she was picking up food nearby when she heard the crash.

“We heard a car speeding up, revving up, and then all of a sudden a huge pop, and we came out here as fast as we [could] to find this huge truck hit a tiny little car and made the biggest noise,” Taylor Sezanne recalled.
The force of the impact sent the car toward the crowd, emergency responders said. Photos from the scene show the damaged sedan had come to a stop against a Thai-style ice cream truck.

Eleven adults were injured, but EMS workers said only nine were taken to the hospital — one of them being the driver of one of the vehicles. Victims were sent to two local hospitals, including two with serious, potentially life-threatening injuries and two others with potentially serious injuries, according to EMS officials.
Two of the patients were declared “trauma alerts,” which Austin-Travis County EMS explained is a classification system used in conjunction with hospitals. It gives hospitals an advance notice that incoming patients may be in need of serious trauma services or an operating room, the agency said.
Two of the injured people declined treatment or transport at the scene, EMS said.
“They may have been a little bit scraped up, but certainly not anything to need any kind of treatment or assessment or transport; they were able to walk away,” said ATCEMS Public Information Officer Capt. Christa Stedman.
In total, nine ambulances, two district commanders and administrative assets responded to the area.
The Austin Police Department is currently investigating, but said it’s too early to determine if any charges would be pending.
“I think that you should never be speeding, especially in the middle of Austin when there’s people walking around,” said Sezanne. “And be extra careful driving, because anything can happen, and it happens within 10 seconds.”

Are TP-Link or Google mesh Wi-Fi systems best?
A single router sitting in the middle of your house or apartment can easily lead to Wi-Fi dead spots, even in adjacent rooms. If you want a frustration-free Wi-Fi experience, a mesh Wi-Fi system should be on your list. They consist either of a single router and additional extenders or any number of identical access points that can each function as stand-alone routers.
Google, on the other hand, has only released a few home Wi-Fi solutions, which have focused on user-friendly setup and management rather than cutting-edge hardware.
TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi systems
TP-Link has been a major player in-home wireless networking for over a decade and competes with some of the most popular brands worldwide. It’s even one of the few to actually design and manufacture its products in-house, instead of outsourcing production to other engineering firms and simply rebranding the results.
When you buy a TP-Link router, mesh system or smart home device, you can be reasonably certain you’re getting something of high quality. But, since it releases a large number of products on a regular basis, it can take a little extra research to figure out which are most advanced and offer the best price-to-performance ratio.
TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi system pros
- Advanced components: TP-Link regularly updates its router and mesh Wi-Fi system lineups. It always offers something that can take advantage of the most cutting-edge laptops, phones and other connected devices.
- High performance: Partly due to components and partly due to talented design, a number of its mesh Wi-Fi systems are usually found near the front of the pack in real-world speed testing.
- Low latency: For use cases like fast-paced gaming that require near-instant communication, TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi systems are among the best.
- In-depth configuration: If you want to set up guest networks or access advanced features like port routing, TP-Link’s mesh Wi-Fi routers and their configuration portals allow you to do that with relative ease.
- Wide variety: TP-Link offers some of the fastest and most advanced home wireless networking solutions. It also provides cost-effective models that should still satisfy most users despite being less technically impressive.
- Reasonable prices: Particularly in the midrange and on the low end, TP-Link wireless solutions offer very good value.
TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi system cons
- There are a lot of models to choose from: As a consumer, it takes a little extra care when looking for a TP-Link wireless solution to make sure you’re getting the best one. Unfortunately, some of its offerings don’t quite hold up in terms of latency and consistency, so it’s important to avoid those models.
- They are slightly bulky: Some mesh Wi-Fi systems consist of small pucks that are easy to hide around the home. TP-Link modules aren’t exactly huge or ugly, but they’re not quite as compact as some competitors.
- They’re not ideal for novices: If you have little to no technology experience, you might not be able to get the most out of a TP-Link networking device.
Best TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi systems
Based on the next-generation Wi-Fi 6 protocol, the Deco X20 delivers enough bandwidth for gigabit-class internet connections and the low latency needed for online gaming. It’s also surprisingly reasonably priced for a premium system.
Sold by Amazon
If you want consistent whole-home coverage but don’t want to spend a fortune, no other mesh Wi-Fi systems offer this kind of performance for the dollar. Despite being based on the somewhat older Wi-Fi 5 standard, it’s a great choice for most home networks.
Sold by Amazon
If you can’t get a consistent Wi-Fi connection in every room no matter what you try, consider this hybrid option. It uses your home’s existent power lines to ensure a strong signal, even through thick masonry.
Sold by Amazon
This one’s perfect for users who demand peak bandwidth and rock-bottom latency but don’t need several thousand square feet of coverage. As you’d expect from such a high-performing option, it’s relatively expensive.
Sold by Amazon
Google mesh Wi-Fi systems
Google has made inroads to nearly every aspect of home entertainment and wireless communications. One reason its products are so successful is they’re incredibly user-friendly. Even though Google doesn’t update its mesh Wi-Fi lineup very frequently, both current models perform well with modern computers, smartphones and smart home devices.
Google mesh Wi-Fi system pros
- Extremely easy setup: The biggest selling point of Google’s mesh Wi-Fi systems is their ease of configuration. Even if you’ve never set up a wireless network, you shouldn’t have any problem.
- Good performance: Their effective design combined with reliable components mean all but the most demanding users should be satisfied by Google mesh systems’ bandwidth and ping times.
- Compact and unassuming construction: When you first look at a Google mesh Wi-Fi module, you might not even realize what you’re looking at. Their soft lines and small stature allow them to fit in with nearly any home decor.
Google Mesh Wi-Fi system cons
- Lack of cutting-edge releases: Since Google doesn’t update the current models or develop new ones very often, they often lag behind other mesh Wi-Fi systems in terms of the most advanced features.
- No Wi-Fi 6 support: One feature that Google Wi-Fi clearly lacks is support for the Wi-Fi 6 protocol. While that’s not a huge deal at the time being, it does somewhat cut into their long-term effectiveness. It also keeps the latest smartphones and laptops from getting the most out of the highly efficient new protocol.
- Below-average customization: In an effort to simplify the setup and management process for the average consumer, Google has stripped away some of the more intricate features that other manufacturers continue to offer.
Best Google Mesh Wi-Fi systems
This base model is ideal for the consumer who doesn’t want to hassle with any confusing settings and wants to save as much money as possible.
Sold by Amazon
Equipped with more powerful hardware than the standard Google Wi-Fi, the Nest is great for larger homes, faster internet connections and greater numbers of connected devices.
Sold by Amazon
Should you get a TP-Link or Google mesh Wi-Fi system?
Many TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi systems incorporate the newest Wi-Fi 6 technology and boast above-average to excellent results in real-world testing. There’s also a great variety of TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi systems available to suit your specific needs. If you have even the slightest experience setting up a home Wi-Fi network, TP-Link offers the best bang for your buck.
The only reason you should consider getting one of Google’s current mesh Wi-Fi systems is if you’re generally averse to configuring electronics. The Google Nest system remains one of the easiest high-performance mesh Wi-Fi systems to set up. While it’s not the absolute fastest setup on the market, it will still satisfy quite a few users.

Geauga County Dog Warden Matthew Granito has received a shipment of 23 puppies and six adult dogs that are in need of a loving home.
The dogs come from MoCo Mutts, a Tennessee shelter that will sometimes lean on the Geauga County department when they have an excess of animals in need of a home.
“We normally do stray dogs in the county, but we are more than willing to help out other shelters in neighboring counties and beyond if they don’t have room,” said Patricia Evans, a junior deputy dog warden. “The people at MoCo Mutts down in Tennessee do great work with these animals so we like to help out when they have more dogs than they can handle.”
MoCo Mutts also delivered 12 puppies and nine adult dogs to the Geauga County Dog Warden last month and all the puppies were adopted in a single day.
The shelter pays for all dogs to be spayed and neutered and provides supplies to adopting families.
“We want to make sure that every dog is taken care of and has the best start possible,” Senior Deputy Dog Warden Cindy Sedivy said. “Every dog walks out of here with the with shots, vaccines, license, a goodie bag and a dog bed. When you adopt a dog here, we want to make sure that everyone leaves with everything they need.”
The shelter also checks each dog for heart worm and other diseases to ensure they are healthy.
Sedivy says that if someone is interested in adopting and already have a dog, to bring the pet to the adoption. This will allow the dogs to familiarize themselves with one another before they are brought home.
In addition to the puppies, the shelter has adult dogs both from this delivery from Tennessee and past ones available for adoption. Among the dogs hoping to be adopted are Timothy, Hooch, and Puzzle.
“Timothy is a 4- to 5-year-old dog, mountain cur mix and is very energetic and seems to like other dogs,” Kennel Assistant Cherie Rosenberger said. “Hooch is 1 to 2 years old and we are just doing our best to find these wonderful dogs a good home.”
The shelter asks that all who are looking for a new pet to take home come and see the the dogs currently at the kennel. It is their hope that each dog will find a loving home.
“In 20 years working in Geauga County, it feels great to not only help dogs in our area but in other places as well,” Granito said. “It’s a special type of feeling to know that these dogs are going to give and receive love and happiness to their human family.”
The shelter will typically take in over 700 dogs a year and is always looking for volunteers to help out with their dogs.
It costs $200 to adopt a puppy and a $120 to adopt adult dogs.
The shelter is located at 12513 Merritt Road in Chardon, anyone interested in adopting a puppy or volunteering can visit the shelter or call 440-279-2180.

Going Green: Easter celebrations with eco-friendly money-saving tips
latest article from Angela Terry
Green Green campaigner and consumer expert, Angela Terry, separates climate change facts from fiction and here she explains how you can take simple, practical steps to help save the planet. Follow @ouronehome & visit https://onehome.org.uk/ for more advice.
Q: How do I have an eco-friendly Easter?
A :You can easily green up your Easter celebrations.
You’ll have just as much fun – and save money!
Here are some ideas ...
Chocolate eggs
When buying chocolate eggs, take a good look at the packaging.
Try to avoid hard plastic eggs or toys.Some companies have made an effort to make their packaging more eco-friendly – like British brand Montezuma.
Even its glues and tape are sustainable.
When it comes to the contents, try and opt for Fairtrade or Rainforest Alliance certified chocolate, because the cocoa’s farmed using methods that don’t cause deforestation.
Look on the Fairtrade website for more information.
Good value options include Aldi’s Choco Changer Salted Caramel Egg (£3.99), Lidl’s Deluxe Salted Caramel Premium Egg (£3.99) and the Co-op’s Irresistible Fair Trade Hot Cross Bun Egg (£6).
Look out too for the first ever plant-based – and ultra-eco-friendly – crème egg!
Made with oat milk, it’s £5 for five eggs from Mummy Meegz – a small company founded by a 74-year-old Yorkshire café owner.
Easter lunch
Spring lambs are super cute and many people think they’re also super tasty.
But could you go meat-free for your Easter Sunday lunch?
It’d significantly reduce your meal’s carbon footprint – and save you money!
The BBC has a great range of meat-free Easter lunch main course recipes online, including a spring veggie casserole with herb dumplings.
If you want to really green your lunch, you could make it plant-based.
The Veganuary website has great Easter recipes, including shepherd’s pie and hot cross buns.
Easter egg hunt
Having an eco-friendly Easter egg hunt is all about getting crafty.
If you want to use real eggs, try to buy them from a local farmer and colour them using natural dyes, so you can compost the shells or put them in your food waste bin.
Lots of websites have info on how to make dyes from kitchen scraps, like cabbage heads, onion skins and beetroot peelings, including Martha Stewart’s. It’s a great holiday activity with kids!
If you prefer to use reusable ‘eggs’ that you can fill with chocolate treats, please try to avoid the plastic ones. You can now buy hollow wooden eggs, which children can paint and use again next year. Etsy is a good place to find such things.
Great outdoors
As the weather improves, now’s the time to get your family out into the countryside. Switch off those games consoles, smartphones and computers and go for a long walk. It’s free and great for everyone’s health and wellbeing.
Celebrity spot
Feargal Sharkey once sang Teenage Kicks.
These days he is more concerned with sewage spills.
Chairman of England’s oldest fly-fishing club, the 63 year-old campaigns against river pollution by farms and water companies. He has a battle on his hands.
Every English river is polluted. In Wales, 56 percent of rivers don’t meet standards.
In Scotland conservationists talk about introducing river ‘sewage police’. More than seven million tonnes of sewage spill annually into Sharkey’s native Northern Ireland waterways.
Green swap
Swap dairy milk latte for oat milk.
In terms of greenhouse gases, 200 millilitre glass of cow’s milk creates around 0.6 kilograms of carbon dioxide.
Same amount of oat milk produces 0.18 kg. A dairy latte’s carbon footprint is more than three times bigger.
Ever wondered ... where does my recycling go?
The UK generates 222.2 million tonnes of waste each year.
It’s all got to go somewhere.
But where?
How much of our rubbish is recycled?
Not as much as it should be!
The household recycling rate in England is 43.8 per cent – meaning it’s missed its target of 50 per cent by 2020.
In Scotland, the 2020 target was 60 per cent but rates are currently 42 per cent.
Northern Ireland managed to hit its 2020 50 per cent rate – but star prize goes to the Welsh.
They set the highest target, of 64 per cent, and exceeded it by one per cent.
For the UK overall, this means about half of our waste still goes to landfill or an incinerator.
As for the half that’s supposedly recycled, what happens to it isn’t as straightforward as you might hope.Plastic
From the UK we send over three and a half Olympic swimming pools of plastic rubbish to other countries every day.
A Greenpeace investigation showed that over half the plastic the UK Government says is recycled actually ends up overseas.
We don’t know what then happens to it, as there are no checks in place.
The destination of our old plastic has changed several times – as countries become fed up with taking other people’s rubbish. For example, until 2017 China took most of the world’s plastic waste but then banned such imports.
At the moment, we send about half of our plastic ‘recycling’ to Turkey and Malaysia.Paper
Recycling is an intrinsic part of modern paper production.
Around 80 per cent of UK-made paper uses paper recovered from household waste.
However, as more people have recycled, the number of UK paper mills has fallen, meaning the amount of paper waste being sent overseas has increased.
More than half of the paper collected for recycling in the UK is now re-processed overseas.Glass and metals
Glass is 100 per cent recyclable.
Its green credentials are fantastic.
Aluminium drinks cans and food tins can also be melted down and remade into new things.
For these materials, much of the recycling is done in the UK.
What to do
First up, please don’t stop recycling!
But try to see it as a last resort.
Make your mantra ‘reduce and reuse’. Try to avoid single-use plastics as much as possible.
Buy loose fruit and veg. Carry a reusable bag. Buy from local shops when you can instead of the Internet.
Look online for zero waste living ideas.
Fact or fiction
Lawn is good for the environment.
Not always!
Better than concrete or plastic grass, but not great for essential insects and wildlife. Diversity is key to healthy ecosystems, so let a corner of your garden go wild. You’ll have less mowing!

The big day has finally arrived! Finishing touches are made to Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz's extravagant £3m Palm Beach wedding as tables are set up with gold and white theme at $76m estate
- Exclusive new photographs taken just hours before they tie the knot show huge white marquees being decked out with chic gold and white tables
- The three lavish tents overlook stunning sea views at Nicola's father Nelson's $76million family estate where a star-studded group of guests will soon be arriving
- Members of staff were busy setting up lighting and flooring at the edges of the tent while a bar area and comfy white seating sections were also visible
- Brooklyn is understood to have signed a prenuptial agreement with his heiress bride-to-be Nicola
- The £380million fortune of Brooklyn's parents is dwarfed by the estimated £1.3billion wealth of Nicola's financier father Nelson
Finishing touches were being made to Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz's extravagant £3million Palm Beach wedding on Saturday morning.
Exclusive new photographs taken just hours before the son of David and Victoria, 23, and the actress, 27, will tie the knot show huge white marquees being decked out with chic gold and white tables and seating.
The three lavish tents overlook stunning sea views at Nicola's father Nelson's $76million family estate where a star-studded group of guests - including Eva Longoria, Gordon Ramsay and Serena Williams - will soon be arriving.
Exciting! Finishing touches were being made to Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz's extravagant £3million Palm Beach wedding on Saturday morning
Members of staff were busy setting up lighting and flooring at the edges of the tent while a bar area and comfy white seating sections were also visible.
Grey drapes were hanging from the sides of the marquee with open sections looking out onto the nearby beach so guests will be able to look at the views and take steps down to the sand, while speakers and a drums set were set up in the corner ready for dancing.
The oceanfront estate, owned by Nicola's parents Nelson and Claudia, boasts two large properties and a sprawling driveway leading to a courtyard lined with palm trees.

The complex also features outdoor tennis and basketball courts and a stunning pool surrounded by a large terrace with space for guests to kick back and soak up the sun.
On Friday night some of the celebrity guests were revealed as they arrived at a rehearsal dinner, including Gordon and his wife Tana and daughter Holly, Eva, Serena and Nicola's parents.
Preparations for the £3million wedding ceremony on Saturday are well underway at the Peltz mansion, with photographs showing other finishing touches being done on Friday.
Aerial pictures showed three huge marquees erected on the beachfront, while two smaller tents were also put up elsewhere on the sprawling estate.

White orchids were also seen being delivered at the estate in a golf buggy as the excitement builds for the big day on Saturday.
The day before, event trucks were seen arriving at the property and huge marquees were erected to host the ceremony and party.
Huge trucks from Thierry Isambert Culinary and Event Design, furniture rental firm Nüage Designs, and Meyer's Turf & Landscape Nursery were seen drawing up to the property.
Drinks! A huge bar was being decked out with candles and seating, with the reception set to be one big party for the hundreds of guests
Incredible: The oceanfront estate, owned by Nicola's parents Nelson and Claudia, boasts two large properties and a sprawling driveway leading to a courtyard lined with palm trees
Brooklyn is understood to have signed a prenuptial agreement with his heiress bride-to-be Nicola. The £380million fortune of Brooklyn's parents is dwarfed by the estimated £1.3billion wealth of Nicola's financier father Nelson.
As wedding preparations are underway, Nicola recruited Leslie Fremar – a stylist who has worked with Hollywood A-listers Demi Moore and Charlize Theron – to help choose her dress.
The pair travelled to the headquarters of Valentino in Rome and Nicola has confirmed her gown has been designed by the fashion house's Pierpaolo Piccioli.
'Nicola trusts Leslie implicitly and, while her dress is being made by Valentino, Leslie is the person she has turned to help with how she will accessorise and how she will have her hair and make-up,' a source said.
From the middle of last week, trucks started to arrive in Palm Beach, and police were patrolling the vicinity of the estate.
The marquees are of a size usually rented for trade fairs. Each could comfortably hold 1,000 people — and there are three of them on the lawn at the Peltz's £76million estate.
The largest will apparently hold a dance floor where rapper Snoop Dogg is going to DJ.
The food is apparently being provided by Miami chef Thierry Isambert, who has previously cooked for former U.S. president Bill Clinton.
Dietary choices include the usual vegan and vegetarian options, but also stretch to allergy-specific choices and even a 'light' option, which comes in underneath a certain calorie-counted ceiling.
In true 21st-century fashion, Vogue magazine has photographers and videographers on hand to document every moment.
A source said: 'It's a nice event, not too big, it will be black tie.
'There is heavy security and the hundreds of guests have been asked not to share pictures of the bride and groom as they have an exclusive arrangement with Vogue, who will put pictures up on their website.
Lots of the guests are bringing their own hair and make-up artists — it's that sort of event.'
Along with a full flush of Spice Girls, there will David's best friend Dave Gardner and Gordon and Tana Ramsay and their five children.
Victoria's sister Louise and her daughter Libby are already in Miami, as are Victoria's parents Tony and Jackie.
David's parents Sandra and Ted will also be there, along with his sister Jo.
Brooklyn's brothers Romeo and Cruz will be groomsmen, the bride's brother Brandon will be 'Man of Honour' and Harper Beckham, ten, will be a bridesmaid.
The bride's maternal grandmother Bunny will be Maid of Honour.
Huge: The complex also features outdoor tennis and basketball courts and a stunning pool surrounded by a large terrace with space for guests to kick back and soak up the sun
Wedding: Huge trucks from Thierry Isambert Culinary and Event Design, furniture rental firm Nüage Designs, and Meyer's Turf & Landscape Nursery were seen drawing up to the property last night
Work to be done: The staff will no doubt be rushing to complete the set up before they exchange vows later on today

Nicola and Brooklyn enjoyed a whirlwind romance after first going public with their budding relationship in November 2019 when pictures emerged of them hugging before getting engaged in July 2020, just eight months later.
While their relationship officially began in 2019, they actually first met in 2017 – with Brooklyn revealing during an Instagram Q&A with followers that they were originally introduced at the Coachella music festival in California.
At the time of Coachella Brooklyn was dating Hana Cross, but he and Nicola reconnected two years later at a Halloween party.
Stars: On Friday night some of the celebrity guests were revealed as they arrived at a rehearsal dinner, including Gordon and his wife Tana and daughter Holly, Eva Longoria (centre), Serena Williams (right) and Nicola's parents

In January 2020, Nicola went Instagram official with their romance, posting a bedroom selfie in a bra, with a shirtless Brooklyn in the foreground, captioned with a simple black heart.
The next month they sat front row in coordinating outfits at the Saint Laurent show at Paris Fashion Week.
In July that year, Brooklyn proposed with a £250,000 emerald and diamond ring, sharing the news online by posting: 'I asked my soulmate to marry me, and she said yes xx I am the luckiest man in the world. I promise to be the best husband and the best daddy one day.'

In her own post, Nicola said: 'You've made me the luckiest girl in the world. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life by your side.'
Despite the Covid-19 pandemic, the pair's relationship grew quickly and they were spotted taking walks together during quarantine after bubbling up together when lockdown first came into effect in March 2020.
Later in the summer, Brooklyn moved back home to quarantine with his parents, but his relationship with Nicola continued to go from strength to strength.
The pair then nought a plush £7.5m home in Beverly Hills, complete with a private yoga room, gym, outdoor infinity pool and even a juice bar.

Going Green: Easter celebrations with eco-friendly money-saving tips
latest article from Angela Terry
Green Green campaigner and consumer expert, Angela Terry, separates climate change facts from fiction and here she explains how you can take simple, practical steps to help save the planet. Follow @ouronehome & visit https://onehome.org.uk/ for more advice.
Q: How do I have an eco-friendly Easter?
A :You can easily green up your Easter celebrations.
You’ll have just as much fun – and save money!
Here are some ideas ...
Chocolate eggs
When buying chocolate eggs, take a good look at the packaging.
Try to avoid hard plastic eggs or toys.Some companies have made an effort to make their packaging more eco-friendly – like British brand Montezuma.
Even its glues and tape are sustainable.
When it comes to the contents, try and opt for Fairtrade or Rainforest Alliance certified chocolate, because the cocoa’s farmed using methods that don’t cause deforestation.
Look on the Fairtrade website for more information.
Good value options include Aldi’s Choco Changer Salted Caramel Egg (£3.99), Lidl’s Deluxe Salted Caramel Premium Egg (£3.99) and the Co-op’s Irresistible Fair Trade Hot Cross Bun Egg (£6).
Look out too for the first ever plant-based – and ultra-eco-friendly – crème egg!
Made with oat milk, it’s £5 for five eggs from Mummy Meegz – a small company founded by a 74-year-old Yorkshire café owner.
Easter lunch
Spring lambs are super cute and many people think they’re also super tasty.
But could you go meat-free for your Easter Sunday lunch?
It’d significantly reduce your meal’s carbon footprint – and save you money!
The BBC has a great range of meat-free Easter lunch main course recipes online, including a spring veggie casserole with herb dumplings.
If you want to really green your lunch, you could make it plant-based.
The Veganuary website has great Easter recipes, including shepherd’s pie and hot cross buns.
Easter egg hunt
Having an eco-friendly Easter egg hunt is all about getting crafty.
If you want to use real eggs, try to buy them from a local farmer and colour them using natural dyes, so you can compost the shells or put them in your food waste bin.
Lots of websites have info on how to make dyes from kitchen scraps, like cabbage heads, onion skins and beetroot peelings, including Martha Stewart’s. It’s a great holiday activity with kids!
If you prefer to use reusable ‘eggs’ that you can fill with chocolate treats, please try to avoid the plastic ones. You can now buy hollow wooden eggs, which children can paint and use again next year. Etsy is a good place to find such things.
Great outdoors
As the weather improves, now’s the time to get your family out into the countryside. Switch off those games consoles, smartphones and computers and go for a long walk. It’s free and great for everyone’s health and wellbeing.
Celebrity spot
Feargal Sharkey once sang Teenage Kicks.
These days he is more concerned with sewage spills.
Chairman of England’s oldest fly-fishing club, the 63 year-old campaigns against river pollution by farms and water companies. He has a battle on his hands.
Every English river is polluted. In Wales, 56 percent of rivers don’t meet standards.
In Scotland conservationists talk about introducing river ‘sewage police’. More than seven million tonnes of sewage spill annually into Sharkey’s native Northern Ireland waterways.
Green swap
Swap dairy milk latte for oat milk.
In terms of greenhouse gases, 200 millilitre glass of cow’s milk creates around 0.6 kilograms of carbon dioxide.
Same amount of oat milk produces 0.18 kg. A dairy latte’s carbon footprint is more than three times bigger.
Ever wondered ... where does my recycling go?
The UK generates 222.2 million tonnes of waste each year.
It’s all got to go somewhere.
But where?
How much of our rubbish is recycled?
Not as much as it should be!
The household recycling rate in England is 43.8 per cent – meaning it’s missed its target of 50 per cent by 2020.
In Scotland, the 2020 target was 60 per cent but rates are currently 42 per cent.
Northern Ireland managed to hit its 2020 50 per cent rate – but star prize goes to the Welsh.
They set the highest target, of 64 per cent, and exceeded it by one per cent.
For the UK overall, this means about half of our waste still goes to landfill or an incinerator.
As for the half that’s supposedly recycled, what happens to it isn’t as straightforward as you might hope.Plastic
From the UK we send over three and a half Olympic swimming pools of plastic rubbish to other countries every day.
A Greenpeace investigation showed that over half the plastic the UK Government says is recycled actually ends up overseas.
We don’t know what then happens to it, as there are no checks in place.
The destination of our old plastic has changed several times – as countries become fed up with taking other people’s rubbish. For example, until 2017 China took most of the world’s plastic waste but then banned such imports.
At the moment, we send about half of our plastic ‘recycling’ to Turkey and Malaysia.Paper
Recycling is an intrinsic part of modern paper production.
Around 80 per cent of UK-made paper uses paper recovered from household waste.
However, as more people have recycled, the number of UK paper mills has fallen, meaning the amount of paper waste being sent overseas has increased.
More than half of the paper collected for recycling in the UK is now re-processed overseas.Glass and metals
Glass is 100 per cent recyclable.
Its green credentials are fantastic.
Aluminium drinks cans and food tins can also be melted down and remade into new things.
For these materials, much of the recycling is done in the UK.
What to do
First up, please don’t stop recycling!
But try to see it as a last resort.
Make your mantra ‘reduce and reuse’. Try to avoid single-use plastics as much as possible.
Buy loose fruit and veg. Carry a reusable bag. Buy from local shops when you can instead of the Internet.
Look online for zero waste living ideas.
Fact or fiction
Lawn is good for the environment.
Not always!
Better than concrete or plastic grass, but not great for essential insects and wildlife. Diversity is key to healthy ecosystems, so let a corner of your garden go wild. You’ll have less mowing!

The countdown is on as Nicola Peltz prepares to walk down the aisle and marry her fiancé of three years, Brooklyn Beckham, later today.
The lavish ceremony, which is expected to take place at her family’s sprawling £76million estate, looks set to welcome an array of celebrity friends and family, including the Ramsays who have been spotted in Miami.
Despite the A-list occasion, 23 year old Brooklyn isn’t the 27 year old actress’ only high profile relationship.
In fact, before getting engaged to the eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham, the Deck the Halls star had some very glamorous partners.
Get exclusive celebrity stories and fabulous photoshoots straight to your inbox with OK!'s daily newsletter.
So, here’s a peek at Nicola’s dating history…
Paul Klein
Before finding her match in Brooklyn, Nicola dated musician Paul Klein.
The LANY frontman, who’d previously dated Dua Lipa, was spotted linking arms with Nicola while shopping in LA in July 2018.
Things moved quickly for the pair and the Transformers: Age of Extinction star even appeared on the cover of LANY’s single Thru These Tears.
However, after six months together the couple called time on their relationship and Nicola took to social media to announce their break-up.
Revealing the news on Twitter, she wrote: “Just wanna tell u guys paul n i went our separate ways but i always wish him all the best!!! all good vibes!”
Anwar Hadid
Nicola and Anwar first sparked dating rumours in January 2017 after they were pictured sharing a romantic New Year’s Eve kiss.
During their year and a half long relationship, Nicola and Anwar - who is the brother of Gigi and Bella Hadid, and who also dated Dua Lipa - regularly enjoyed red carpet dates and attended New York Fashion Week together.
But despite their fairly public relationship, a rep of Nicola’s confirmed that it had come to an end in June 2018 when Anwar was spotted kissing model Kendall Jenner.
What’s more, fans spotted that Nicola had seemingly cleansed her social media of their relationship – and unfollowed the entire Hadid family on Instagram too.
Justin Bieber
After they were spotted going on a string of alleged dates around LA, Nicola and Justin Bieber were at the centre of dating rumours back in May 2016.
Though megastar Justin was touring at the time, the Love Yourself singer did everything he could to make time for the Bates Motel star by reportedly flying her out to Toronto.
Speaking to E! News at the time, a source said: “Justin has a crush on Nicola and really enjoyed the date with her the other night”.
The insider added: “He wants to settle down and have a relationship. He feels like something steady would be good for him.”
Rumours of the romance quickly quietened down and the pair’s spark appeared to have simply fizzled out.

What Sheffield United boss said about remarkable non-penalty award against Bournemouth
Manager Paul Heckingbottom was left frustrated after a “blatant” penalty was not awarded for his Sheffield United side in their goalless draw with AFC Bournemouth.
United should have had the spot-kick when on-loan Liverpool man Nat Phillips cleaned out Morgan Gibbs-White in the area, after missing the ball.
But incredibly, and despite his linesman apparently telling him it was a penalty, referee Dean Whitestone waved play on.
United had good chances either side of the penalty shout to win the game, with Mark Travers twice denying Gibbs-White and then Filip Uremović firing wide with virtually the last kick of the game when ideally placed.
“In my opinion, on the big moments in the game, we did more than enough to win,” Heckingbottom said.
“Everyone told me [it was a penalty] but I’ve seen it back and it was worse than described to me. I’ve been in to see the ref but I probably feel worse now. I don’t know why I bother.
“You go in and just come out more frustrated. They’re not going our way at the minute, those moments, but we’ll save them up and hopefully we get over the line.
“That’s the frustrating bit, we did a lot right and you want other people to do their jobs. When they’re blatant like that, that’s as black and white as they come and they’re the ones that really hurt.”
Told that the linesman had said to the referee that it was a penalty, Heckingbottom said: “It doesn’t make me feel any better. It’s gone, what can we do? But it’s as blatant as they come. We want to get some of those now.”

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Eleven people were injured in a “major collision” Friday night in Austin, Texas, involving pedestrians and two vehicles, one of which hit a food truck, authorities said.
Austin-Travis County Emergency Medical Services tweeted that two of the victims sustained potential life-threatening injuries. Seven others sustained non-life-threatening injuries requiring medical evaluation. The other two didn’t require hospitalization.
The collision occurred in a popular area near downtown Austin where there are frequently several food carts stationed.
Jennifer Dunn, an employee at a nearby restaurant, told The Associated Press that a group of 25 people had just left to get ice cream at a food truck a few feet away when patrons inside the restaurant heard a loud boom.
Dunn said several members of the group then ran back inside injured and asking for help. Dunn said she and others ran to the scene where several people, including the drivers, appeared severely hurt.
“We work in the restaurant industry, so we are used to helping,” Dunn said. “I have been doing this for a long (time), so have the servers and we just wanted to help.”
Austin is the Texas state capital and home to the flagship campus of the University of Texas.

Soccer-Everton boost survival hopes with win over woeful Man United
By Peter Hall
LIVERPOOL, England, April 9 (Reuters) - Manchester United's miserable season continued on Saturday as Everton boosted their Premier League survival hopes with a 1-0 win over Ralf Rangnick's side at Goodison Park.
Out of all cup competitions, United were looking to earn a victory that would have moved them level on points with Tottenham Hotspur in fourth.
But their task was made all the more difficult when Anthony Gordon gave Everton a first-half lead.
For the Toffees, hovering above the relegation zone, the nerves showed after the break, but the visitors lacked the quality to get back into the match despite a wealth of attacking options on the pitch.
A late Cristiano Ronaldo effort was as close as United came to a leveller as they slipped to a loss that leaves the team with the most English top flight titles ever seventh in the standings, three points behind Spurs, who play Aston Villa later on Saturday.
Everton defended for their lives at the death, hanging on for a precious victory that helped them pull four points clear of 18th-placed Burnley, who travel to Norwich City on Sunday.
"We don´t score, we don´t even create proper chances to score," United goalkeeper David de Gea told Sky Sports. "I don't know what to say, to be honest.
"We're not good enough, that's for sure. It's going to be very difficult now to be in the top four.
"Of course it's not the perfect atmosphere. They were tired, they were nervous, but they keep going and keep fighting. They had more desire than us, which is not acceptable. It's very sad to lose today."
Brought back into the United starting lineup, Marcus Rashford looked lively on his 200th Premier League start early on, forcing two good saves out of home goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.
The groans became more audible around Goodison as the half wore on, with their error-prone team misplacing pass after pass.
The hosts did not muster an attack until the 27th minute, but they got the stroke of luck they needed as Gordon's effort was deflected past David de Gea off United captain Harry Maguire's back and in, as the home fans roared with delight.
Buoyed by their break, Brazilian striker Richarlison found the confidence to send a dipping strike towards goal, again aided by a deflection, which forced De Gea into an agile stop.
With their season in danger of fizzling out, United needed a response in the second half. Bruno Fernandes picked out a brilliant pass for Rashford, but he failed to connect when through on goal.
For all their possession in the second half - United had almost 75% of the ball after the interval - they could not find the killer pass, with a Paul Pogba effort from distance and Ronaldo's late snap shot their only real opportunities of note.
Rangnick rang the changes, but it had little effect, as United meander towards another disappointing season finish - five years without a trophy come the end of this campaign, and nine since their last league triumph.
Everton will now be focusing on prolonging their 68-year stay in the top flight.
"Coming off the back of the last game there was a lot of disappointment," midfielder Fabian Delph told BT Sport, referring to their midweek loss away at fellow strugglers Burnley. "Heads were down, as you'd expect. We came into it with a good game plan.
"It was about sticking together and riding the storm, and we managed to do that. It's a massive relief for the players, management and everyone associated with Everton." (Reporting by Peter Hall; Editing by Hugh Lawson)

Rangnick insists manager uncertainty no excuse for more Man United woe
By Peter Hall
LIVERPOOL, England, April 9 (Reuters) - Interim coach Ralf Rangnick insisted that the lack of clarity over who the next permanent Manchester United manager will be is no excuse for another poor performance from his side in their 1-0 defeat to Everton on Saturday.
The German interim, who had not coached a team since RB Leipzig in 2018-19, took over from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in November ahead of what is expected to be a two-year consultancy role from next season at the club.
But he has been unable to rouse United from their slumber. Rangnick has won just eight of his first 17 Premier League games as United boss - the lowest win percentage (47%) of any manager for the club in the competition.
It is unclear who the next permanent United manager will be, with the club insisting that no decision has been made despite British media reports that Ajax Amsterdam coach Erik ten Hag is being lined up.
"I don't see any connection between this (new manager search) and today's display, and I will not allow anyone to have this as an alibi or excuse," Rangnick told reporters.
"It doesn't matter if the new manager will be announced in five, 15 or 20 days, the players should be eager to play Champions League, but as long as we play like today they don't deserve it.
"Whenever we score first we have the confidence to win games, but when we concede first we lose our way a bit. If you don't score against a team who conceded three against Burnley in midweek then you don't deserve anything."
United started well at Goodison, but after falling behind to Anthony Gordon's deflected strike in the first half, Rangnick's team never really looked like getting back into the game.
Sitting seventh, United are now on course for their worst season finish since 1991 given their average points per game earned, but Rangnick is adamant the desire is there to try to change things.
"You could see they (United players) wanted to win the game, but after conceding the goal we lost some confidence," Rangnick added. "We just struggle with the level of expectation.
"We wanted to play more aggressive than we did before. We needed to be more keen to win second balls and pin them back and we didn't do that. That is our problem right now."
Everton boss Frank Lampard was understandably happier after seeing his side earn a battling victory to ease the weight on his shoulders, giving his team a big boost in their survival bid after recent poor results.
"It is not easy after two defeats in a week (prior to United's visit)," Lampard said. "To go against a team who were full of quality and show that level of fight and spirit is incredible and we got what we deserved.
"With a fit squad we are stronger. It is in our hands to keep performing to stay in this league. Do these lads want it more than anything to stay in this league? Yes, and they showed it today." (Reporting by Peter Hall; Editing by Hugh Lawson)

Walmart offering new truckers starting salary of up to $110,000
As part of an effort to keep its supply chain moving, Walmart is offering new truck drivers a starting salary range of $95,000 to $110,000 for their first year.
"Drivers who have been with Walmart longer can earn even more, based on factors like tenure and location," Walmart's senior vice presidents of transportation and supply chain people, Fernando Cortes and Karisa Sprague, added in a blog post on Thursday.
A Walmart spokesperson told FOX Business that new truck drivers could previously make an average of $87,500 in their first year.
WALMART TO END CIGARETTE SALES IN SELECT STORES, MARKETS
The retailer has also launched a 12-week private fleet development program, where its existing supply chain workers in Texas and Delaware can earn their commercial driver's license (CDL). The program covers the cost of earning a CDL, which can typically be between $4,000 and $5,000.
According to Walmart, the program has had a total of 17 graduates to date. The company hopes to train between 400 and 800 new drivers this year and eventually make the program available to all Walmart associates.

Walmart has approximately 12,000 truck drivers in its workforce after hiring about 4,500 people last year. In addition to its hiring efforts, the company has tested autonomous trucks to help fulfill online orders.
HELMETS SOLD AT WALMART STORES NATIONWIDE RECALLED OVER INJURY HAZARD
The American Trucking Association estimated in October that the U.S. is facing a shortage of about 80,000 truck drivers. In March, the trucking industry lost 4,900 jobs.
"Drivers are in high demand today – a fact exacerbated by COVID," the ATA said in a March 25 release. "To attract and retain drivers, fleets must increase pay, which is now happening at extraordinary levels."
The trade group notes that weekly driver earnings are surging at a rate of more than five times their historical average. Long-haul truckers have seen a more than 25% increase since the beginning of 2019. In addition, some fleets are offering five-figure sign-on bonuses and full benefits to attract talent.

According to the White House, trucking moves 72% of American goods. Trucking costs grew more than 20% last year following a coronavirus-pandemic induced surge in demand for goods.
In December, the Biden administration unveiled a Trucking Action Plan to increase the supply of truck drivers, which includes $57 million in funding to help states expedite the process for earning a commercial driver's license. Since January, states have issued more than 876,000 CDLs, and license processing in January and February increased 112% year-over-year.
In addition, the Department of Transportation launched a 90-day trucking apprenticeship challenge, which has seen over 100 employers across trucking, food and grocery, and the oil and gas industries launch registered apprenticeship programs.

Have you been considering skin treatments, but don't want to commit to something like botox or fillers? Meet Profhilo, the latest and trendiest skin treatment available.
If your skincare routine isn't quite giving the dramatic results you're hoping for, a "tweakment" like Profhilo is a great place to start to banish lines and wrinkles.
Designed to rejuvenate tired, dull skin, this new anti-ageing treatment has been likened to an injectable moisturiser that plumps up the skin. The treatment has been getting a lot of interest over the last few years as alternative to the likes of botox and fillers and it's offered at the South William Clinic in Dublin.
Unlike other anti-ageing injectables that use fillers to add volume and stretch out the skin, Profhilo uses Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body that is said to hydrate, firm and rebuild new, younger-looking skin cells.

Profhilo is a stabilised hyaluronic acid product, and a first-of-its-kind injectable treatment to address skin laxity and loss of collagen. This kind of treatment is perfect for anyone looking for a more natural looking solution to ageing.
With Profhilo, it is non-invasive and has very little downtime, which makes it perfect for the everyday person who just wants to pop in and get a treatment without putting aside days for recovery. The South William Clinic takes only half an hour from start to finish to do the procedure, which is great for people on the go.
In terms of the process itself, it involves 10 injections, five on either side of the face. These injections will leave small lumps where the hyaluronic acid was placed, but it will be distributed underneath the skin itself within a few hours if left alone, says Dr Ninnette from the South William Clinic. It isn't painless, but the prick of the needle only lasts a few seconds.
There is no downtime, you can go home and continue your skincare routine as normal.
Over the course of the next few days, your skin will become plumper and firmer, and wrinkles will appear smoothed. In order to get the full effects, you will need a follow up treatment four weeks later.
Priced at €750 for two treatments, South William Clinic recommend a maintenance treatment every 6 months, however depending on skin type and age, duration of results may vary.
All treatments subject to assessment and consultation with South William Clinic’s in-house doctor. You may wish to book an in-clinic skin consultation before booking this treatment.

Emergency repairs to a defective bridge joint will take place this weekend on the southbound carriageway of the M6 along Thelwall Viaduct. The work will begin at 9pm tonight (Saturday April 9th) and end at 5pm tomorrow.
The work requires the closure of three lanes – leaving only lane four open to traffic. The bridge joint is across lane two and lane three of the southbound carriageway. It is very close to where drivers join the southbound M6 from the slip road at junction 21 so the slip road will also be closed between 9pm on Saturday evening and 5pm on Sunday.
Bridge joints are mechanisms in the carriageway which allow the bridge deck to expand and contract safely with changes in the weather. This weekend's work will allow National Highways to plan a full repair at a later date which is likely to require a full overnight closure of the motorway over the viaduct. Carrying out the temporary repair this weekend will also reduce the risk of sudden, unplanned lane closures at peak times.
National Highways says it has planned this weekend’s work to minimise inconvenience to drivers heading back from the Grand National at Aintree. Drivers heading from Merseyside to Manchester for the Manchester City and Liverpool Premier League football match should not be affected by the lane closures.
Drivers planning to use the southbound M6 between junction 21 and junction 20 should expect congestion when the work is taking place, especially during the day on Sunday. Drivers passing the roadworks on Sunday should note that roadworkers will have been working overnight and will have left the site to allow concrete around the repair to set properly before lanes can safely re-open.
National Highways is advising drivers to check traffic conditions along the motorway before setting out and delay their journeys to choose an alternative route should this wish to avoid congestion
Drivers are advised to check traffic conditions before setting out on journeys. Live traffic information is always available at www.trafficengland.com or from National Highways’ 24-7 customer contact centre at 0300 123 5000. Updates will also be posted to @HighwaysNWest – National Highways’ regional Twitter feed.

Finishing touches were being made to Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz's extravagant £3million Palm Beach wedding on Saturday morning.
Exclusive new photographs taken just hours before the son of David and Victoria, 23, and the actress, 27, will tie the knot show huge white marquees being decked out with chic gold and white tables and seating.
The three lavish tents overlook stunning sea views at Nicola's father Nelson's $76million family estate where a star-studded group of guests - including Eva Longoria, Gordon Ramsay and Serena Williams - will soon be arriving.

On Friday night some of the celebrity guests were revealed as they arrived at a rehearsal dinner, including Gordon and his wife Tana and daughter Holly, Eva, Serena and Nicola's parents.
Preparations for the £3million wedding ceremony on Saturday are well underway at the Peltz mansion, with photographs showing other finishing touches being done on Friday.

Brooklyn is understood to have signed a prenuptial agreement with his heiress bride-to-be Nicola. The £380million fortune of Brooklyn's parents is dwarfed by the estimated £1.3billion wealth of Nicola's financier father Nelson.
As wedding preparations are underway, Nicola recruited Leslie Fremar – a stylist who has worked with Hollywood A-listers Demi Moore and Charlize Theron – to help choose her dress.
The pair travelled to the headquarters of Valentino in Rome and Nicola has confirmed her gown has been designed by the fashion house's Pierpaolo Piccioli.
'Nicola trusts Leslie implicitly and, while her dress is being made by Valentino, Leslie is the person she has turned to help with how she will accessorise and how she will have her hair and make-up,' a source said.
From the middle of last week, trucks started to arrive in Palm Beach, and police were patrolling the vicinity of the estate.
The marquees are of a size usually rented for trade fairs. Each could comfortably hold 1,000 people — and there are three of them on the lawn at the Peltz's £76million estate.
The largest will apparently hold a dance floor where rapper Snoop Dogg is going to DJ.
The food is apparently being provided by Miami chef Thierry Isambert, who has previously cooked for former U.S. president Bill Clinton.
Dietary choices include the usual vegan and vegetarian options, but also stretch to allergy-specific choices and even a 'light' option, which comes in underneath a certain calorie-counted ceiling.
In true 21st-century fashion, Vogue magazine has photographers and videographers on hand to document every moment.
A source said: 'It's a nice event, not too big, it will be black tie.
'There is heavy security and the hundreds of guests have been asked not to share pictures of the bride and groom as they have an exclusive arrangement with Vogue, who will put pictures up on their website.
Lots of the guests are bringing their own hair and make-up artists — it's that sort of event.'
Along with a full flush of Spice Girls, there will David's best friend Dave Gardner and Gordon and Tana Ramsay and their five children.
Victoria's sister Louise and her daughter Libby are already in Miami, as are Victoria's parents Tony and Jackie.
David's parents Sandra and Ted will also be there, along with his sister Jo.
Brooklyn's brothers Romeo and Cruz will be groomsmen, the bride's brother Brandon will be 'Man of Honour' and Harper Beckham, ten, will be a bridesmaid.
The bride's maternal grandmother Bunny will be Maid of Honour.

Wedding: Huge trucks from Thierry Isambert Culinary and Event Design, furniture rental firm Nüage Designs, and Meyer's Turf & Landscape Nursery were seen drawing up to the property last night
Work to be done: The staff will no doubt be rushing to complete the set up before they exchange vows later on today
Stunning: Saturday in Florida was the perfect weather for a wedding as the sun shone down on the beachside location
Seating: The gold and white tables were set up for people to sit at and enjoy drinks later in the evening
Nicola and Brooklyn enjoyed a whirlwind romance after first going public with their budding relationship in November 2019 when pictures emerged of them hugging before getting engaged in July 2020, just eight months later.
While their relationship officially began in 2019, they actually first met in 2017 – with Brooklyn revealing during an Instagram Q&A with followers that they were originally introduced at the Coachella music festival in California.
At the time of Coachella Brooklyn was dating Hana Cross, but he and Nicola reconnected two years later at a Halloween party.

In January 2020, Nicola went Instagram official with their romance, posting a bedroom selfie in a bra, with a shirtless Brooklyn in the foreground, captioned with a simple black heart.
The next month they sat front row in coordinating outfits at the Saint Laurent show at Paris Fashion Week.
In July that year, Brooklyn proposed with a £250,000 emerald and diamond ring, sharing the news online by posting: 'I asked my soulmate to marry me, and she said yes xx I am the luckiest man in the world. I promise to be the best husband and the best daddy one day.'
Proud parents: DailyMail.com photos show David and Victoria Beckham arriving to the Peltz family compound in Palm Beach, Florida Friday
Man of the moment: Brooklyn was seen at the estate on Friday ahead of the wedding, looking happy and relaxed
In her own post, Nicola said: 'You've made me the luckiest girl in the world. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life by your side.'
Despite the Covid-19 pandemic, the pair's relationship grew quickly and they were spotted taking walks together during quarantine after bubbling up together when lockdown first came into effect in March 2020.
Later in the summer, Brooklyn moved back home to quarantine with his parents, but his relationship with Nicola continued to go from strength to strength.
The pair then nought a plush £7.5m home in Beverly Hills, complete with a private yoga room, gym, outdoor infinity pool and even a juice bar.
Exciting: In July 2020, Brooklyn proposed to Nicola with a £250,000 emerald and diamond ring, sharing the news online by posting: 'I asked my soulmate to marry me, and she said yes xx'
The property that will host Saturday's wedding has been owned for decades by investor and billionaire money manager Nelson Peltz and his wife, former model Claudia Heffner and is comprised of three separate lots for a total of 11.1 acres of beach-front land.
The real estate is partly occupied by buildings boasting a total 25,000 square feet and as many as 16 bathrooms.
In size, the property is second to Trump's 17-acre Mar-a-Lago, but the astronomic price of Peltz's place makes it much more valuable.
Celebrities: Eva Longoria (left) and Serena Williams (right) were seen attending the event together last night ahead of the wedding today
Outfits: Romeo Beckham's girlfriend Mia Regan shared a snap of the couple's rehearsal dinner outfits, as she donned a yellow dress while Romeo wore a pink suit
Family: Nicola is the daughter of billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz, 79, and model Claudia Heffner
According to Palm Beach County property tax records, the wedding venue has been valued at over $100,000,000 – even if local realtors claims the property could sell for twice to three times as much if it were put up for sale.
Records show Nelson Peltz's contribution to the wealth of the area through yearly property taxes for the compound is a total $2,180,540.
Peltz is said to be worth $1.7 billion, according to Forbes.
The Peltzes, however, aren't the only rich and famous residents of Billionaires' Row.
Love: Brooklyn and Nicola began dating just before the start of the Covid pandemic in 2020, having met two years earlier

Bidar (Karnataka) [India], April 9 (ANI): Karanataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Saturday said that "all are equal in the government's view and maintaining law and order in the state is our objective."
Speaking to the media before heading to participate in the programme in Basavakalya, the Chief Minister said the government has nothing to do with the campaign to ban the Wakf Board.
Replying to a question on Sri Ram Sene (SRS) president Pramod Muthalik's call for a campaign to ban the Wakf Board, Bommai said, "people practise their respective traditions. The government is being run in accordance with the laws. The government has nothing to do with these campaigns."
Meanwhile, reacting to the All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Randeep Surjewala's tweet on the Bitcoin issue, Bommai said, "I have replied to the issue in the Legislative Assembly itself. If he has any information on the issue, let him submit it instead of tweeting. It is meaningless."
Bommai further said that "I am very happy to be in the land of Basavanna. I have come with hopes of comprehensive development of the region." (ANI)

COLOMBO, Sri Lanka (AP) — Thousands of Sri Lankans rallied in the country’s main business district and Christian clergy marched in the capital to observe a day of protest on Saturday calling on the debt-ridden country’s president to resign, as anxiety and anger over shortages simmered.
Protesters carrying national flags and placards, some bemoaning the hardships through songs, blamed President Gotabaya Rajapaksa and his administration for mismanaging the crisis. He has remained steadfast in refusing to step down even after most of his Cabinet quit and loyal lawmakers rebelled, narrowing a path for him to seek a way out as his team prepares to negotiate with international lending institutions.
“Go home Rajapaksas” and “We need responsible leadership,” read the placards.
The protest also included a large number of youngsters who had organized themselves through social media and refuse to accept any political leadership. Many carried signs, saying “You messed with the wrong generation!”
The protesters stayed around the president’s office and vowed not to leave until their mission is accomplished.
For months, Sri Lankans have stood in long lines to buy fuel, cooking gas, food and medicines, most of which come from abroad and are paid for in hard currency. The fuel shortage has caused rolling power cuts lasting several hours a day.
The Indian Ocean island nation is on the brink of bankruptcy, saddled with $25 billion foreign debt over the next five years — nearly $7 billion of which is due this year alone — and dwindling foreign reserves. Talks with the International Monetary Fund are expected later this month, and the government had turned to China and India for emergency loans to buy food and fuel.
Much of the anger expressed by weeks of growing protests has been directed at Rajapaksa and his elder brother, Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa, who head an influential clan that has been in power for most of the past two decades. Five other family members are lawmakers, three of whom resigned as ministers last Sunday.
Thakshila Jayasinghe, a 35-year-old lawyer who joined the protest, said that she felt sorry for voting for Rajapaksa in the 2019 presidential election. “I wonder what sin I have committed by voting for this president when I see the people suffer,” she said.
Reports said that at least four elderly people have died while standing in lines for hours trying to buy cooking gas or kerosene oil.
Jayasinghe said she voted for Rajapaksa believing he was the best candidate to restore national security following the 2019 Easter Sunday bomb attacks that killed more than 260 people. The attacks, blamed on local Muslim militants with ties to the Islamic State group, also shattered the tourism industry, alongside the pandemic, depriving Sri Lanka of hard currency.
At the same time, critics accuse Rajapaksa of borrowing heavily to finance projects that earn no money, such as a port facility built with Chinese loans.
Catholic clergy and lay people joined a rally from the “martyrs cemetery” in Negombo, north of the capital Colombo, where more than 100 people who died in the suicide attacks in the area’s St. Sebastian’s Church are buried.
They protested the economic crisis as well as the government’s alleged failure to uncover the conspirators behind the bombings.
“Today the country needs a major change and a new beginning,” Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith, the archbishop of Colombo, told protesters. “We ask from every citizen of this country to come together and change this system. To get together and tell these people to leave.”
“It’s enough now, it’s enough destroying the country, now leave and hand it over to someone who can govern this country,” he said.
The protest later moved near the Anglican cathedral in Colombo.
The Catholic Church in Sri Lanka has been critical of the investigation into the bombings, citing allegations that some members of the state intelligence units knew and met with at least one of the attackers.
Rajapaksa earlier proposed the creation of a unity government following the Cabinet resignations, but the main opposition party rejected the idea. Parliament has failed to reach a consensus on how to deal with the crisis after nearly 40 governing coalition lawmakers said they would no longer vote according to coalition instructions, significantly weakening the government.
With opposition parties divided, they too have not been able to show majority and take control of Parliament.

Sugar production estimated to be 350 lakh tonnes
More than 57 lakh tonnes were exported till the end of March 2022.
Sugar production this season, which will end in September, is estimated to be 350 lakh tonnes, after taking into consideration 34 lakh tonnes of sugar equivalent for ethanol production.
A press release from the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) said the production till March 31, 2022 since October 1 last year was 310 lakh tones and sugar mills in Maharashtra and Karnataka continued to crush cane. About a month ago, the association had estimated sugar production in Maharashtra and Karnataka at 126 lakh tonnes and 55 lakh tonnes respectively. It has now revised the estimates to 134 lakh tonnes and 62 lakh tonnes, after diversion for ethanol.
“The higher sugar production [in the country] is due to a significantly higher yield per hectare as also higher sugar recovery,” the association said.
On the export front, it was reported that contracts had been entered into for nearly 74 lakh tonnes. More than 57 lakh tonnes were exported till the end of March 2022. There were reports that international trade houses had indicated that the global market expected more than 85 lakh tonnes of sugar exports from India. ISMA said India would export more than 90 lakh tonnes of sugar in the current season (October 2021 to September 2022).
With 82 lakh tonnes of opening stock on October 1 last year, domestic consumption of 272 lakh tonnes in the current season, and exports of 90 lakh tonnes, the closing stock this season was estimated to be 68 lakh tonnes, ISMA added.

A council worker leaked a sex offender's highly-sensitive address to a paedophile hunter group who then turned up at the home and threatened to kill him. Customer services assistant Chloe Carr told the vigilantes that the man 'deserved all he gets' and was 'bloody awful' and 'disgusting' but she asked them not to reveal that she had passed on the confidential information.
Her leak then lead to a 30-strong angry mob turning up outside his new home and threatening to burn down the house. As a result, the pervert had to be hurriedly moved to a new address.
The court heard Carr's unprofessional actions helped to 'whip up a frenzy' and were 'not a public service at all' because they 'destabilised' convicted criminals and risked making them 'unpredictable'.

Heavily-pregnant Carr, 23, admitted unlawfully disclosing private data to an online website without consent. She denied misconduct in public office as a customer service advisor for Hull City Council by abusing the public's trust and disclosing confidential and personal data between June 4 and July 2, 2020 and that charge was dropped, HullLive reports.
Charlotte Baines, prosecuting at Hull Crown Court, said that Carr was employed at the time by an agency to work for the city council and to help direct members of the public to assistance that might be available. Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, she was working from home and there was a work chat group in which she could have contact with colleagues.
Another worker sent a message to the group saying that a call had been received from a convicted sex offender, who had contacted the council's customer services team asking for a food parcel to be sent to him as he had been placed into emergency accommodation because his details had been put on Facebook. The address of where he would be living was shared by the chat group but Carr sent details of it to an anti-paedophile group.
She told the online paedophile hunters that she had details on the sex offender but asked to be kept anonymous. She said in messages that it was "disgusting" that the sex offender was still in Hull and would be living near a school.
Carr was asked by the anti-paedophile group if she had proof of the man's details and replied: "Yes, everything is 100 per cent" and confirmed that she had his street address. She said that she worked for Hull City Council and there was a reply from the online group asking if she could share that address with them.
Carr sent a screenshot of the sex offender's address and said: "This can't come back to me due to my work." The paedophile hunters asked her for the number of the house. She told the online group that it was 'so wrong' to put the man there and added: "I don't believe in it. I will look now."
Carr was thanked by the anti-paedophile group and was told that details would be going online shortly. She replied: 'Please don't mention it's come from the council' because records were kept and it might 'come back to me' because of the disclosure. "The defendant made it abundantly clear that she worked for Hull City Council and the information needed to be kept anonymous," said Miss Baines.
At 6.40pm, the sex offender contacted the police to say that he had received a food parcel from Hull City Council but that people were at his door trying to break into the property and he had been warned to 'get out now or they would kill him and burn down the property'. There were 30 people in the mob outside the house.
At 7.19pm, the anti-paedophile group contacted Carr on Facebook Messenger to thank her for her information and to say that the sex offender had been moved from the house. Carr replied: "I am so happy. He is bloody awful. Happy to have helped everyone."
The paedophile hunters thanked her. There was further contact during the following days, with further messages about the sex offender.
The police later identified Carr as being involved in the chats after they realised that there was a problem. They went to her then home in Anlaby and seized two laptops.
She told police that, when a colleague shared details of the sex offender, she was 'quite angry because she was pregnant' and that after someone in her chat group said that something needed to be done, she took it upon herself to contact the anti-paedophile group and to supply further details. "She said that she knew it was wrong," said Miss Baines. "She was kicked out of the works chat. She wasn't allowed to return to work, one assumes."
Helen Chapman, mitigating, said that the sex offenders that Carr had been referring to were people who had been before the courts, had been found guilty or sentenced and had 'done their time and come out' of prison. "These groups exist on Facebook in order to whip up a frenzy," said Miss Chapman.
Carr was heavily pregnant at the time and the messages were exchanged just a fortnight before her son was born in July 2020. He was now aged nearly two. The offence was 'short-lived but persistent' and Carr was in 'something of a vulnerable position' at the time because the boy's father had left her after she told him that she was pregnant.
"It didn't help that she was working from home," said Miss Chapman. Carr was now on Universal Credit and child benefit. "She is just beginning to look for work," said Miss Chapman. Carr had no previous convictions.
Judge Mark Bury said that the offence might not have happened if there had been a 'little bit more supervision' of Carr and she had not been working from home. The decision not to proceed with a prosecution under the more serious misconduct in public office offence had been taken after a 'thorough review by a number of different people' for the prosecution but it meant that the maximum penalty for the lesser offence that Carr now faced was a fine and not prison.
"You are very lucky about that," said Judge Bury. "The offence that you have committed is, in my view, a very serious one that would have carried a sentence of imprisonment." He told the court: "I would have locked her up."
Judge Bury said that it was not for Carr or anyone else to pass comment and say that the man involved 'deserves all he gets and he's bloody awful'. The person had to be rehoused again and it led to problems in rehabilitating such people and 'destabilising' them, risking them becoming 'more unpredictable' and committing offences.
"This is not a public service at all," said Judge Bury. "They had done their punishment. It wasn't for you to give their details out."
It did 'not take much imagination' to work out what the anti-paedophile group were planning to do. "The problem that this causes is that it destabilises offenders," said Judge Bury. "It makes them unpredictable and more likely to commit offences that everyone else is trying their hardest to prevent them from doing. It's not doing a public service at all. It's a huge disservice.
"I am quite satisfied that you knew what you were doing because you said you didn't want your name to be mentioned because you would be sacked, which, of course, you were. I hope this has been a lesson. If you work in the public sector again, you just have to remember that you have a grave responsibility with public details. You thought you were helping. You were not."
Carr was fined £500, to be paid at £50 a month. After the hearing, she left the court building giggling and joking loudly with two female supporters and headed straight across the road and into the pub opposite the court.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (WFLA) – Rising gas prices are hitting drivers especially hard. Florida rapper Rod Wave is also in disbelief at the cost of a full tank, but at least it gave him a very generous idea.
The “Heart on Ice” rapper plans to give away $25,000 worth of free gas in his hometown of St. Petersburg on Saturday.
Wave announced his plans on Instagram last Monday. In the video, Wave filmed himself filling up his Bentley’s tank with what appeared to be $100 worth of gas.
“G–d—,” Wave could be heard saying as the pump’s digital readout crossed the $100 mark.
Wave then explained where the gas giveaway would take place, directing St. Petersburg residents to a gas station at 5100 34th Street South near the Sunshine Skyway bridge exit. The giveaway begins at noon.
Judging by the response on social media, large crowds are expected. St. Petersburg police say they will also be at the site to help direct traffic, the Tampa Bay Times reported.
“God bless u and thank u for being u!” wrote one fan, commenting on a repost of Wave’s Instagram video. “Much appreciated!”

ISLAMABAD (AP) — A defiant Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Friday that he is in a fight to protect the country’s sovereignty and called his supporters to the streets to defy opponents determined to unseat him.
Khan delivered an impassioned televised address to the nation on the eve of a no-confidence vote in parliament, a day after Pakistan’s Supreme Court blocked his bid to stay in power, ruling that his move to dissolve Parliament and call early elections was illegal.
Thursday’s court decision set the stage for a no-confidence vote, with opposition lawmakers saying they have the 172 votes in the 342-seat assembly needed to unseat Khan, after several of his ruling party members and a small, but key, coalition partner defected.
In his speech, Khan urged Pakistanis — particular the country’s young who have been the backbone of his support since the former cricket star turned conservative Islamist politician came to power in 2018 — to rally countrywide on Sunday night.
“All of you will have to come out on Sunday after evening prayer to protest, to peacefully protest … I again say that should never indulge in violence,” he said. ”It should be a peaceful protest.”
He vowed not to accept the results of the no-confidence vote on Saturday — an indication he was aware he will likely lose the vote.
“You have to come out to protect your own future. It is you who have to protect your democracy, your sovereignty, and your independence … this is your duty,” he said.
Pakistan’s latest political crisis erupted last Sunday, when Khan sidestepped the opposition’s initial no-confidence petition — a motion that had been weeks in the making — and instead accused his opponents of colluding with the United States to remove him.
Qasim Suri, Khan’s ally and deputy parliament speaker, dismissed the no-confidence vote on the grounds of collusion while his Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry described the opposition as being “disloyal to the state,” and accused them of colluding with a foreign power.
Khan dissolved Parliament and called early elections but the opposition went to the Supreme Court with its case.
After four days of deliberations, hearing arguments from both the opposition and Khan’s lawyers, the five-member bench unanimously ordered Parliament reinstated and the no-confidence vote to be held on Saturday.
For his part, Khan said he had wanted the Supreme Court to investigate communications between a senior U.S. diplomat, whom he did not name, and Pakistani diplomats — communications he claimed were proof of collusion.
Khan claimed America wanted him gone because of his foreign policy choices in favor of Russia and China, and a visit he made on Feb. 24 to Moscow, where he held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin as Russian tanks rolled into Ukraine. He has also said the U.S. dislikes his strident criticism of Washington’s war on terror.
The U.S. State Department has denied any involvement in Pakistan’s internal politics. Deputy State Department spokeswoman Jalina Porter told reporters on Friday that there was “absolutely no truth to these allegations.”
“Of course, we continue to follow these developments and support Pakistan’s constitutional process but again, these allegations are absolutely not true,” she said.
Khan’s political opposition runs the gambit of the political spectrum, from the left to the radically religious parties. The largest among the opposition parties — the Pakistan People’s Party and the Pakistan Muslim League — have been tainted by allegations of widespread corruption.
The Pakistan Muslim League leader and former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was convicted of corruption after being named in the so-called Panama Papers — a collection of leaked secret financial documents showing how some of the world’s richest hide their money and involving a global law firm based in Panama. He was disqualified by Pakistan’s Supreme Court from holding office.
If the opposition wins the no-confidence vote, it is up to Parliament to choose a new head of government — which could be Sharif’s brother, Shahbaz Sharif. If the lawmakers are unsuccessful, early elections would be called.
“I will not accept an imposed government,” Khan said Friday.
Khan’s options are limited and should he see a big turnout in his support, he may try to keep the momentum of street protests as a way to pressure Parliament. But with his supporters being mostly the young, who make up the majority in Pakistan, he also risks an outbreak of violence.
“Khan tapped into a potent vein of anti-American sentiment in Pakistan that is unlikely to dissipate any time soon,” Elizabeth Threlkeld, Pakistan expert at the U.S.-based The Stimson Center, told The Associated Press.
Pakistan’s military, which has consistently stepped in during many past turmoil engulfing a democratically elected government, has remained quiet in the latest crisis. The army has seized power and ruled for more than half of Pakistan’s 75-year history.

BLOOMINGTON — Liam VanDeventer found what he hopes will be a long-term interest when he visited a Parklands reserve near the Mackinaw River during a field trip with the Boys and Girls Club of Bloomington-Normal.
The 9-year-old was fascinated by some of the aquatic animals they found in a stream, including the misleadingly named “mudpuppies,” which are actually amphibians.
“I still like it; I want to become a marine biologist,” Liam said.
The Boys and Girls Club is kicking off its annual Great Futures Annual Appeal with a focus on the lifelong aspirations of the kids at the club. The mission for the campaign is to increase awareness of the organization's work and raise money to support operations, club CEO Tony Morstatter said.
It gives the club a chance to tell stories about its students.
“We’re looking at their journey to success,” Morstatter said.
The students have a wide variety of dreams, some of which are very local to the Boys and Girls Club. Ariane Ford, 8, hopes to someday work at the club, while also pursuing a career in modeling and acting.
The Boys and Girls Club has been a big part in helping her gain confidence, she said.
“It’s made me feel confident, it’s made me feel like I can do what I want to do,” she said.
She and other students from kindergarten to fifth grade attend the clubhouse on Illinois Street, near Sunnyside Park. The Boys and Girls Club also has locations for older students at First Christian Church, Bloomington Junior High School and Parkside Junior High School.
Around 80 students a day are at programs at the Clubhouse, and there is a waitlist for the summer program, Morstatter said. Registration for summer has already closed.
Over the past eight years, there has only been one student with the Boys and Girls Club who did not graduate from high school on time, and that student spent the rest of his senior year volunteering at the club and went on to get a GED at an alternative school, Morstatter said.
Of the students in the program, 64% plan to go to college, he said. The club tries to instill other leadership values as well — qualities that will help the students succeed at any job, regardless of whether they seek a college degree.
“So preparing our youth for that next day is not just about college,” Morstatter said.
Along with funding from individual donors, the club uses grant funding, including corporate and foundation grants and government grants, he said. The school year programming costs families $25 for the whole year.
Morstatter credited the national Boys and Girls Club of America’s federated model, giving more discretion to the local clubs in operations. It allows local clubs to meet the specific needs of the youth in their area, he said.
“We’re here, we know, we talk to our families, we know our youth,” he said.
Last week, part of that process included having Zuriyah Crider help interview her older sister, who applied for a job with the club. Zuriyah, who is 10, said she asked her sister a scenario question about what she would do if she came into a classroom and one of her students was standing on a table.
For many students, Boys and Girls Club is a place they can go to meet with friends and interact with people they might not see at school, they said.
“It’s a good program for me because I can actually interact with kids my age, because I’m the oldest at home,” 11-year-old A’Miya Albert said.
Carter Jones said he likes playing football and basketball at the clubhouse. He hopes to go on to play professional basketball.
“You’re in this place and you’re happy and you get to see all your friends,” said Carter, who is 10.
The Great Futures Appeal runs through April, May and June. More information about how to give can be found online at bgcbn.org.

The Weekly Wrap – A Hawkish FED Sends the Dollar Spot Index Towards 100
The Stats
It was a quiet week on the economic calendar for the week ending April-08, 2022.
A total of 33 stats were monitored, following 64 stats in the week prior.
Of the 33 stats, 16 beat forecasts, with 14 economic indicators coming up short of forecast. 3 stats were in line with forecasts.
Looking at the numbers, 20 of the stats reflected an upward trend from previous figures. Of the remaining 13 stats, 12 stats were weaker.
Hawkish FOMC member chatter drove Dollar demand ahead of more hawkish than expected FOMC meeting minutes.
Out of the U.S
In the first half of the week, the market focus was on factory orders and service sector PMIs.
The stats were mixed. Factory orders fell by 0.5% in February, partially reversing a 1.5% rise from January, while service sector activity improved.
In March, the market’s preferred ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI increased from 56.5 to 58.3.
On Thursday, jobless claims were also impressive. In the week ending April-01, initial jobless claims fell from 171k to 166k.
With the stats dollar positive, the FOMC meeting minutes were also greenback positive mid-week. More hawkish than anticipated minutes drove demand for the greenback. The minutes revealed plans to begin cutting the FED balance sheet by $95bn per month amidst a rising interest rate environment to curb inflation.
In the week ending April 8, 2022, the Dollar Spot Index rose by 1.18% to end the week at 99.796. In the week prior, the Index fell by 0.16% to 98.632.
Out of the UK
Private sector PMIs were Pound positive.
In March, the services PMI increased from 60.5 to 62.6, up from a prelim 61.0. As a result, the composite PMI rose from 59.9 to 60.9, up from a prelim 59.7.
The construction PMI held steady at 59.1 in March. Economists had forecast a fall to 57.8.
In the week, the Pound fell by 0.68% to end the week at $1.3025. In the week prior, the Pound fell by 0.52% to $1.3114.
The FTSE100 ended the week up 1.73%, following a 1.06% gain from the previous week.
Out of the Eurozone
It was a busy week, with the markets focused on service sector activity and the German economy.
Stats from Germany delivered mixed results. In February, Germany’s trade surplus widened from €8.9bn to €11.5bn, with industrial production up 0.2%. Factory orders slid by 2.2%, however, to test EUR support.
Service sector PMIs were more upbeat. France and Germany saw service sector activity pickup, while Italy and Spain saw activity moderate. Despite this, the Eurozone’s services PMI rose from 55.5 to 55.6. As a result of disappointing manufacturing numbers, the Eurozone’s composite PMI fell from 55.5 to 54.9.
On Thursday, the ECB monetary policy meeting minutes also drew interest.
In line with expectations, policymakers discussed cutting back on stimulus to curb inflation. Policymakers noted that “three forward guidance conditions for an upward adjustment of the key ECB interest rate had either already been met or were very close to being met.”
Despite the need to curb inflation, the war in Ukraine left policymakers on a more cautious footing.
For the week, the EUR slid by 1.50% to $1.0877. In the previous week, the EUR rose by 0.55% to $1.1043.
The EuroStoxx600 rose by 0.57%, while the CAC40 and the DAX ended the week with losses of 2.04% and 1.13%, respectively.
For the Loonie
Trade, Ivey PMI, and employment figures were the key stats of the week.
It was a mixed bag for the Loonie, with Canada’s trade surplus widening from C$2.62bn to $2.66bn. Ivey PMI numbers also impressed, rising from 60.6 to 74.2.
Employment figures for March were disappointing. Employment rose by 72.5k following a 336.6k jump in the previous month. While the increase was modest, the unemployment rate fell from 5.5% to 5.3%.
From the Bank of Canada, the BoC Business Outlook Survey reflected concern amongst businesses about inflation. Around 35% of firms expected inflation to overshoot the BoC’s 2% target for 2-3 years, up from 31% of businesses in the fourth quarter.
In the week ending April-08, the Loonie fell by 0.40 to C$1.2572 against the Greenback. In the week prior, the Loonie declined by 0.36% to C$1.2522.
Elsewhere
It was a bearish week for the Aussie Dollar and the Kiwi Dollar.
The Aussie Dollar slipped by 0.51% to $0.7458, with the Kiwi Dollar sliding 1.13% to end the week at $0.6849.
For the Aussie Dollar
Economic data was limited to trade data, which was disappointing. In February, Australia’s trade surplus narrowed from A$12.891bn to A$7.457bn.
With stats on the lighter side, the RBA monetary policy decision and forward guidance failed to provide support.
The lack of support came despite the RBA taking a more hawkish stance on cash rates. Rising house prices may force the RBA to lift interest rates more slowly than the FED.
For the Kiwi Dollar
There were no material stats for the markets to consider, leaving the Kiwi Dollar on the defensive. Monetary policy divergence and weak private sector PMI numbers from China weighed.
For the Japanese Yen
Household spending figures provided little support to the Yen, with spending sliding by a further 2.8% in February. In January, spending fell by 1.2%.
The Japanese Yen slumped by 1.49% to end the week at ¥124.34 against the Dollar. In the week prior, the Yen ended the week down by 0.39% to ¥122.52.
Out of China
It was a quiet week on the economic data front, with stats limited to service sector PMI numbers.
Following disappointing manufacturing data, service sector data also painted a grim picture as China grapples with the latest COVID-19 breakout.
In March, the services PMI fell from 50.2 to 42.0.
In the week ending April-08, the Chinese Yuan fell by 0.03% to CNY6.3650. Through the week prior, the Yuan ended the week rose by 0.05% to CNY6.3629.
The Hang Seng Index ended the week down 0.76%, with the CSI300 falling by 1.06%.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Six people were killed and 12 wounded in Sacramento last weekend in what police say was a shootout between rival gangs as bars closed and patrons crowded in the streets just blocks from the California state Capitol.
The explosion of gunfire captured on cellphone videos was punctuated by the screams of terrified people running for cover. More than 100 bullets were fired — many in rapid-fire bursts — during the brief battle.
Police said at least five gunmen from at least two gangs opened fire, but so far only three men have been arrested in the investigation and none has been charged with homicide. Only two of those men — brothers who were among the wounded — have been connected to the shooting, though they only face firearms charges at this time.
Some things to know about the situation:
WHO HAS BEEN ARRESTED IN SHOOTING?
Two brothers, Smiley and Dandrae Martin, are the only two people arrested so far who have been connected by police to the shooting.
A third man was arrested near the scene of the shootout with a gun that police do not think was fired during the melee.
Dandrae Martin, 26, is the only suspect identified by police as a shooter. He was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon but prosecutors have only charged him with a gun possession offense.
Martin, whose gunshot wound was minor, did not enter a plea during a brief hearing in Sacramento Superior Court this week on a charge of being a convict carrying a gun. His lawyer said she wouldn’t decide whether to seek bail until prosecutors determine whether to charge him with a more serious crime.
Smiley Martin, 27, was more seriously injured in the shooting and arrested in the hospital on suspicion of possession of a firearm by a prohibited person and possession of a machine gun.
Both brothers have felony criminal records that include convictions for violent attacks on women they encouraged to work as prostitutes, according to prosecutors and court records.
Smiley Martin was released from prison under supervision of probation officers in February after serving less than half his 10-year sentence because of voter-approved changes to state law that lessened the punishment for some felonies and provided a chance for earlier release.
A chance at freedom even sooner was rejected in May 2021 after prosecutors wrote to the Parole Board citing Martin’s lengthy rap sheet and said he “clearly has little regard for human life and the law.”
WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE THE SHOOTING?
Police have yet to reveal what led to the shootout, but a 15-minute video posted live on Facebook earlier in the night by Smiley Martin showed him brandishing a large handgun, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press.
The video posted about four hours before the shooting was believed to be shot in a parking lot in north Sacramento.
Smiley and Dandrae Martin were in the video, along with Joshua Hoye-Lucchesi, one of the men who died in the shooting, said the official, who was not authorized to discuss details of the investigation publicly and spoke to AP on condition of anonymity.
Investigators believe some of the men involved in the shooting were members of the Crips street gang, the official said. At least one of the victims had been linked by law enforcement to the Bloods gang, according to the official.
In the video, Smiley Martin repeatedly waved a handgun at the camera, saying at one point he was going to a club but didn’t have identification, the official said. He also spoke of an affiliation with the Crips street gang and Hoye-Lucchesi could be heard making veiled threats against someone else, according to the official.
At other points in the video, it appeared the handgun was tucked in Martin’s waistband, the official said.
The video also showed local police officers drive nearby and call out to the group to ask if they had seen a child nearby, the official said. The men responded they hadn’t before the officer drove off.
Sacramento police spokesman Chad Lewis said officers were aware of video that included three of the people involved in the shooting. He said the video showed people waving guns and, at some point, a police cruiser rolled up.
WHAT TYPE OF GUNS WERE FIRED?
Police have yet to reveal what type of weapons were used in the shooting, but they have said more than 100 rounds were fired, which is based on the number of shell casings recovered.
Witnesses provided more than 200 videos and photos and tips that have helped investigators, police said. The explosion of gunfire heard on videos posted online had the ring of semi-automatic or automatic weapons.
A stolen handgun found at the scene had been been converted to a weapon capable of automatic gunfire. Police were trying to determine if it was used in the shootout.
Smiley Martin faces a charge of possessing a machine gun, though police have said nothing about whether that weapon was used in the shooting.
The official who spoke on condition of anonymity said police were trying to figure out if the gun Martin was seen sporting in the video was used in the attack.
Police also seized a handgun during a search of three homes after the shooting.
WHO WERE THE VICTIMS?
They were three fathers raising their young children, a sister driving downtown to pick up her older sibling from a night out, a landscaper saving her pay for concert tickets and a woman living on the streets in search of housing.
The six people slain were remembered with memorials on the city’s downtown streets featuring photographs, candles, cards, balloons and, in one case, two empty bottles of Hennessy liquor.
The Sacramento County coroner identified them as: Johntaya Alexander, 21; Melinda Davis, 57; Yamile Martinez-Andrade, 21; Sergio Harris, 38; Joshua Hoye-Lucchesi, 32; and De’vazia Turner, 29.
Of the 12 people wounded, at least two remained hospitalized Friday.
Police have said Smiley Martin will be booked at the Sacramento County jail after he is released from the hospital.

Burton and Plymouth play out goalless League One stalemate
Promotion-chasing Plymouth were held to a goalless draw by Burton in a tight League One encounter at the Pirelli Stadium.
The visitors thought they had taken the lead after a minute but Burton skipper John Brayford produced a superb clearance off the line to deny his opposite number Joe Edwards.
Burton, struggling for form, started without an orthodox striker but after seeing much of the early Argyle threat, began to cause problems for the visitors.
Cameron Borthwick-Jackson lashing a rising drive just wide on the half-hour mark and Harry Chapman marginally unable to get his head on a teasing cross from Jonny Smith.
Joe Powell twice had chances for Burton in a tense second half but the best chance fell to Chapman, who forced to superb save from Michael Cooper in the Plymouth goal only for the ball to ricochet onto the shin of Burton defender Tom Hamer and deflect away when it looked like it might be sneaking in the bottom corner.
Former Albion loanee Ryan Broom glanced a late header towards goal to force a save from Matej Kovar but there was to be no breakthrough for either side as the spoils were shared.

Blue Star targets 15% market share by 2024
MUMBAI March 17, 2021 22:47 ISTFirm unveils Mass Premium AC range
Leading air conditioning brand Blue Star has embarked on an aggressive market expansion strategy to acquire 15% market share in India by 2024 from about 13% currently.
The company targets to grow 25% in FY22, ahead of the industry growth, a top executive said.
“We started this year with 12.75% market share and are now close to 13%. We are are optimistic about the future and we are outperforming the industry growth. We are a pure AC player, known for our expertise in cooling, quality, reliability and durability. We will maintain this preposition but we are repositioning ourselves as an affordable premium brand,” said B. Thiagarajan, MD.
He said the foray into mass premium segment would help the company to achieve its target.
“We have strategically repositioned ourselves as a ‘Masstige’ brand with the introduction of our new range of split ACs to cater to the mass market and expand our market reach. Affordability while retaining Blue Star’s premium build quality is the criterion which we have focused upon for this season’s product introduction,” he said.
He said this move is aligned to the company’s last year’s aim of shifting orbit and accelerating growth by garnering a mass appeal cutting across geographies and demographics.
“We are progressing well on our chosen trajectory, and we will continue to leverage our brand association with Virat Kohli to march further ahead in this direction,” he added.
On Wednesday, the company unveiled its new range of ‘Mass Premium’ split air conditioners which are 10% cheaper than the earlier models. The new range comprises 3-star, 4-star, and 5-star inverter split air conditioners that are available at prices starting from ₹25,990 for a 0.80 TR 3-star inverter split AC.
The company would invest ₹64 crore in advertising in FY22 as compared to ₹22 crore in FY21. Apart from expanding the third party sales outlets, the company is increasing the network of its exclusive brand stores from 200 to 250 stores by the end of FY22.
The company has committed investments of over ₹670 crore to expand capacity at various locations.

Chipu silence stubborn Uganda to storm Barthes Trophy semi-finals
What you need to know:
- The win did not come easy for the defending champions as Coach Curtis Olago's men were made to sweat for it, especially in the first half
- It was one-way traffic for Kenya in the second half as they got tries through Ganguma Idd (two), Nicholas Okulu, David Mwangi and Mathias Osimbo for the emphatic victory
- Zimbabwe and Madagascar will face off in the other semi-final also on Wednesday at Nyayo
Kenya Under-20 men's team, Chipu Saturday thumped Uganda 54-20 in the quarter-finals of Rugby Africa U-20 Barthes Trophy at Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi on Saturday.
Kenya will now face Namibia in the semi-finals on Wednesday. The win did not come easy for the defending champions as Coach Curtis Olago's men were made to sweat for it, especially in the first half.
Kenya now join Namibia, Zimbabwe and Madagascar who had clinched the first three semi-final tickets by sweeping aside Ivory Coast 62-0, Tunisia 19-18 and Zambia 26-14 respectively in the quarters.
Chipu were first on the scoreboard through Cornelius Mukoro's penalty in the 17th minute. However, poor ball handling by the hosts near their try line saw Uganda take the lead 3-7 from Ema Ochan's converted try.
Olago's charges tried to cut the deficit through push-over tries but Uganda's defence was impenetrable using that tactic. Kenya then won a penalty in Uganda’s half which was converted by Mukoro for a 6-7 scoreline.
Felix Chacha put Kenya ahead 11-7 with an unconverted try with six minutes to half-time. However, Uganda replied with a penalty from the boots of Captain Daniel Okello to see Kenya lead 11-10 at the break.
It was one-way traffic for Kenya in the second half as they got tries through Ganguma Idd (two), Nicholas Okulu, David Mwangi and Mathias Osimbo for the emphatic victory. Okello added a late try for the Ugandan side.
Zimbabwe and Madagascar will face off in the other semi-final also on Wednesday at the same venue.
Meanwhile, Kenya Simbas lost their opening match 51-14 to hosts Valke at the Currie Cup in South Africa on Saturday. Samuel Asati and Brian Tanga scored the tries for Kenya.
“It was a good start to the campaign considering the team has only been together for a week and travelled on Thursday night to South Africa. We only had one session in South Africa. To be able to score tries and improve as the game continued is an important part of our Currie Cup campaign,” said Simbas Team Manager Jimmy Mnene.

Great songwriters will tell you how often it is that songs become prophetic. I have had this conversation with artists like Jackson Browne, Nick Cave and many others. You write a song and then years later you find out how true and relevant to your life is.
Apparently, once in a great while that happens in journalism as well. In November of 2018, after seeing Billie Eilish at the Fonda in L.A. I wrote a piece entitled "Inside The Powerful And Inspiring Billie Eilish Phenomenon" (I still take great pride in that article as she shared it on social at the time saying, "This is the first review that really gets me.")
I believed everything I wrote that night about the special and unique bond between Eilish and her fans. But I admit, watching Eilish last night (April 8) in the second of her three sold-out nights at L.A.'s Forum I realized I had no clue how true that November 2018 review would become.
We all know the statistics. Since that time Eilish has won 8,224 Grammy awards, including Record Of The Year twice in a row, Album Of The Year, Best New Artist, "Queen Of The Universe," "Best Polka Album Ever Made," on and on (in actuality it's seven wins and 17 nominations and there is no Grammy for queen of the universe and I don't know who made the best polka album ever), she has won an Oscar for "No Time To Die," her song for the James Bond film of the same name, headlined Coachella, been on countless magazine covers.
However, just as I said in the November 2018 review of her billion plus streams at that time, that only tells a small portion of the story. Watching Eilish deliver her 95-minute master class in stage presence and crowd control, all the awards and accolades feel insignificant.
Sure, winning all those Grammys gives her credibility to the music industry and the parents who hadn't heard of her. But when you see the thousands of young girls screaming every lyric with her, who live and die on every breath she takes between songs, who chant not only her name, but her brother's name, deservedly screaming FINNEAS during the band intro, they don't give a damn if Eilish ever wins a Grammy, an Oscar, a Pulitzer, a Nobel Prize or an Olympic medal.
She is their queen. From the opening "Bury A Friend" throughout the next 27 songs, they are her loyal subjects. Seeing the evolution from 2018 to today is shocking. Her command of the stage is almost unprecedented. From her smirks to her stage banter she ruled over the building as if she had been headlining arenas as long as Mick Jagger, not for barely three years, two of which included Covid.
During the set I was struck by the fact that parents around the globe should thank whoever they thank that Eilish uses her power for good. And I mean she uses it for good, from telling the crowd to think positive thoughts and to not care what others think to having the iconic Forum Club — the best VIP spot in L.A. and gathering place for the industry before and after the show — serve nothing but vegan food, including the dinner, the desserts, everything. Because if she wanted to use her powers for evil there would be millions of teenage girls ready to take over the world at her command.
That, to me, remains the most interesting and inspiring part of Eilish's story. Musically, there were several highlights. The "Billie Bossa Nova," the acoustic set, including her and FINNEAS on "I Love You," "My Strange Addiction," "Oxycontin," "Bad Guy," "You Should See Me In a Crown," and many more. The versatility she and FINNEAS, who when all is said and done may very well be the best producer/writer of his generation (and the dynamic between them is incredibly special to see), is remarkable. And it does explain why they have been so lauded by critics and won all those awards.
But it is the effect she is having on a generation of fans that still highlights the Eilish phenomenon. Last night as I thought about my review I kept thinking how unprecedented this success is. Then I realized there are parallels and a guy who was part of that told you, we just weren't listening.
Dave Grohl said of Eilish in an interview with The Independent, "When I see f**king Billie Eilish, that’s rock ’n’ roll to me. She started a revolution and took over the world.”
Finally it dawned on me this morning. The Eilish movement is akin to what Nirvana did in the '90s, something Grohl has said himself. Before you bitch I am not comparing the two. I am however comparing the movement, that has seen a young artist go from playing 2,000-seat clubs to headlining arenas around the globe in less than four years. And has galvanized a generation.
So many pundits have said there will never be another unifying force in music like Nirvana, that music is too splintered for that. But they haven't or won't see it's happening right now, maybe because instead of a band it's a 20-year-old solo woman. But that 20-year-old woman has already changed your daughter's life the same way Nirvana, the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Madonna or others did.
She's awoken them to the power of music, to power of fandom, to the amazing feeling of having an artist you feel speaks for you and to you. And I am willing to bet having interviewed them both, Eilish and FINNEAS will tell you knowing you have stirred the rock and roll passion of a new generation of fans is the greatest award of all.
