LUCASVILLE — The Portsmouth West Lady Senators collected 14 runs on 14 hits in Friday’s 14-3 win over host Valley in five innings in Friday’s Southern Ohio Conference Division II contest. With the win, the Lady Senators (8-0, 5-0 SOC II) remain unbeaten in SOC II play to start the 2022 season. Sophomores Emma Sayre and Kaylor Pickelsimer had perfect days at the plate for West — combining to go 5-of-5, four RBI, three walks drawn, and six runs. Sayre hit a leadoff home run in the top of the fourth inning to put West ahead 6-1. A six-run fifth from the Lady Senators gave them a 14-1 lead, before the Lady Indians plated two with a two RBI single by Karsyn Davis in the bottom of the fifth. West junior Sydney McDermott earned the win in the circle for West, allowing just four hits, two walks, and striking out 12 Valley batters. West travels to Whiteoak on Tuesday in non-league play. Valley (3-3, 3-2 SOC II) will host Wheelersburg on Wednesday in SOC II play. *** BOX SCORE West 2 1 2 3 6 — 14 14 1 Valley 1 0 0 0 2 — 3 4 4 West hitting Emma Sayre 3-3, 3R, 2RBI, BB Macie Bradford 3-4, 2R, RBI Emily Moore 1-3, 2R, BB Kaylor Pickelsimer 2-2, 3R, 2RBI, 2BB Abi Boland 1-4, RBI Myla Meade 1-3, R, RBI, BB Acie Stone 1-4, 3RBI Sydney McDermott 2-4, RBI Kylie Osborne 0-2 Kate Rollins 0-1 Valley hitting Emilie Johnson 1-3, R Taylor Cunningham 0-1, BB Karsyn Davis 1-3, 2RBI Addalyn Conaway 1-3, RBI Madison Montgomery 0-2 Lexi Whitt 0-2 Braxtyn Holbrook 1-2, R Camry Carpenter 0-1, R, BB Olivia Hilton 0-2 Pitching Sydney McDermott (W) 5IP, 4H, 3ER, 2BB, 12K (W) Emilie Johnson (V) 5IP, 14H, 9ER, 5BB, 3K (L) © 2022 Portsmouth Daily Times, all rights reserved

EXCLUSIVE: Ted Cruz predicts a red 'tsunami' in November's midterm elections and claims 'a lot of Americans are regretting' voting for Joe Biden in 2020 after Texas senator holds event at Yale University - The Texas GOP senator was in New Haven to tape a live episode of his podcast - He spoke exclusively with DailyMail.com after the event, claiming the taping was 'terrific' and praising left-wing Yale students in the audience for being thoughtful - However he defended himself against accusations of racism against Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson that were made by a young student during the taping - 'I don't think it's accurate. In fact, I think it is harmful to attribute racism to something that is not,' the Texas senator said after the taping - He also accused President Joe Biden of pandering to 'the extremes on the socialist wing of the Democratic Party' as the midterm elections loom - There was no major disruptions to the event despite a demonstration at the university last week that saw students call a conservative speaker a 'b****' Texas Senator Ted Cruz said on Monday night that he's confident Republicans will be able to take back the majority in Congress after November's midterm elections, claiming that 'a lot of Americans' are regretting giving Democrats power in the 2020 race. The lawmaker was in New Haven to tape a live episode of his podcast, The Verdict with Ted Cruz, in conjunction with a Yale University student group. 'I think an awful lot of people who voted in 2020, who maybe didn't like some of the tone and rhetoric of President Trump, maybe didn't like some of the tweets he put out and listen -- there are a lot of things he said and did that I disagreed with,' Cruz told DailyMail.com in an interview after his event. 'But I think a lot of Americans are regretting that vote, because as they look at the galloping inflation, as they look at gas prices going through the roof, as they look at crime rising across the country, as they look at the chaos at our southern border -- a whole lot of people are thinking back, "Gosh, maybe mean tweets are not the worst thing on planet Earth."' He anticipated the multiple crises plaguing the Biden administration would lead to an 'astonishing' win for Republicans later this year. 'I think it's not just going to be a wave. I think it's going to be a tsunami. I think Republicans will retake both houses of Congress because people across the country are recognizing the path we're on doesn't make any sense. It's not working,' Cruz said. The Texas senator told DailyMail.com after his Yale event that he thought it was 'terrific,' sharing particular praise for left-wing students who he said shared 'substantive' disagreements It comes amid fresh Republican criticism over the president's government lifting the pandemic-era Title 42 migrant expulsion policy. The public health rule, which allows border agents to turn asylum-seekers away upon contact in the name of mitigating COVID-19's spread, is set to expire on May 23. Late last month the Department of Homeland Security said it was planning for a worst-case scenario of 18,000 people pouring over the southwestern border per day. The move was hailed by progressives and immigrant activist groups who decried the policy as 'inhumane' and have been pressing Biden for months to lift it. On Monday Cruz accused President Joe Biden of allowing 'the extremes on the socialist wing of the Democratic Party' to steer the White House's agenda. He also claimed a majority of Americans were beginning to realize President Joe Biden took a 'hard left' with policies that 'don't work' 'I think the whole country is saying that those those policies don't work,' he said. Cruz's podcast taping was hosted by Yale’s William J. Buckley program, whose website states it is committed to promoting ‘intellectual diversity’ and to ‘expand political discourse on campus and expose students to often-unvoiced views.’ It’s done in partnership with the Young America’s Foundation’s Irving Brown Lecture Series. The Young America’s Foundation promotes conservatism on college campuses. During the taping of his latest episode, the Texas senator accused some of his GOP colleagues on the Senate Judiciary Committee of being 'afraid' to grill Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson during her historic Supreme Court confirmation hearings. Jackson was confirmed to replace retiring Justice Stephen Breyer last week, becoming the first black woman to ascend to the high court. But during her marathon confirmation hearings, Cruz was among a few conservative lawmakers who claimed Jackson was far too lenient in past sentences for people guilty of possessing child pornography. Other senators did not question her on it because they were afraid of being seen as 'modern-day Klansmen,' Cruz said. The senator, who attended Harvard Law School with Jackson, admitted he felt 'conflicted' about his peer's nomination. 'She is someone that on a personal level, she's very smart, she's charming, she has an easy smile. Everyone who knows her likes her. But at the end of the day, a Supreme Court nomination is not about whether they're smart or if you like them,' the senator said. He added that she 'demonstrated she would be the furthest left of any justices who sat on the court' -- surprisingly earning applause from the crowd. Cruz taped an episode of his podcast live in front of an event held by a Yale University student group. It comes days after he signed onto a letter with dozens of other national Republican figures condemning the Ivy League school's response to a recent student protest during which a conservative panelist was called a 'b****' He and his co-hosts Liz Wheeler and Michael Knowles posed for photos with fans after the event Meanwhile protesters were scarcely seen. Pictured is recent university graduate Zach Standen, who said he was demonstrating because he did not 'like Ted Cruz' Cruz told DailyMail.com after the taping that he was 'encouraged' by the left-wing response. 'We had a really good, vigorous conversation. I was glad to see it was substantive. I was actually most encouraged early on, when there were a group of students who cheered obviously left-of-center. And I was encouraged they came out,' the lawmaker said. The majority of the audience appeared to be fans of the senator One of those apparently 'left-of-center' students confronted Cruz for asking Jackson 'flagrantly racist questions' during a Q&A portion of the podcast taping. 'It baffles me that you would ask such flagrantly racist questions to this exceedingly well-qualified candidate. Your colleagues in the GOP promised a respectful and dignified hearing,' she said. The Yale student added, 'What are two nice comments you can give about recent nominee Justice Jackson... besides from she "has an easy smile"?' The senator said Jackson had an 'impressive and inspiring personal story' but then accused the left of being 'hypocritical' with the concept of racism. However when asked about whether he supported the young student asking him the blunt question, Cruz praised her for doing so in a 'respectful' way. 'I didn't agree with her sentiments. But I think she asked it in a respectful way. It was substantive,' he said. Cruz blasted the media and Democrats for labeling criticism of Jackson as 'racism.' 'Listen, there are a lot of people in the press, a lot of people politically, who have characterized any scrutiny of Judge Jackson or any vote against her as racist,' he said. 'And so I'm glad she asked that. I don't think it's accurate. In fact, I think it is harmful to attribute racism to something that is not.'

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — The South Dakota House is set to decide Tuesday whether Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg should be impeached for his conduct before and after he struck and killed a pedestrian on the shoulder of a highway. Troopers have said Ravnsborg was distracted before the September 2020 crash that killed 55-year-old Joseph Boever. Ravnsborg initially told authorities he thought he had struck a deer or other large animal. He went back the next day and found Boever's body. Opponents of impeachment say Ravnsborg need not be held accountable by the House because he wasn't on the job when the crash happened. He had been driving back from a Republican fundraiser. Ravnsborg has cast Boever’s death as a tragic accident. He pleaded no contest last year to a pair of traffic misdemeanors, including making an illegal lane change. An investigation committee from the Republican-controlled House voted against recommending impeachment after arguments that Ravnsborg's actions were not part of his official duties. Republican Gov. Kristi Noem has pushed for impeachment, saying Ravnsborg lied to investigators. The Highway Patrol concluded that Ravnsborg’s car crossed completely onto the highway shoulder before hitting Boever, and criminal investigators said later that they didn’t believe some of Ravnsborg’s statements. Republican Rep. Will Mortenson, of Pierre, brought articles of impeachment against Ravnsborg more than a year ago. He did not return phone messages left Monday by The Associated Press. Last week, at the request of Republican Rep. Tim Goodwin, of Rapid City, about 30 lawmakers took in a presentation by two Highway Patrol troopers outlining details of the investigation. Goodwin said it raised doubts about the committee's recommendation. House Speaker Spencer Gosch, who chaired the committee, called it a sales pitch. Gosch did not respond to phone messages Monday. While it's unclear whether the presentation would have any effect on the impeachment vote, Noem's spokesman referenced it Monday to sum up the feelings in the governor's office. “The troopers' presentation speaks better than I ever could,” Ian Fury said. Democrat House Minority Leader Jamie Smith, a member of the impeachment investigation committee, said the troopers helped with unanswered questions, but he doesn't believe they will change any minds. He expects Tuesday's floor debate to last a couple of hours before the vote. “As a member of the committee, I said I believed there were grounds for impeachment and I will stay with that,” Smith said.

Philadelphia became the first major U.S. city to reinstate its indoor mask mandate on Monday after reporting a sharp increase in coronavirus infections, with the city’s top health official saying she wanted to forestall a potential new wave driven by an omicron subvariant. Confirmed COVID-19 cases have risen more than 50% in 10 days, the threshold at which the city’s guidelines call for people to wear masks indoors, said Dr. Cheryl Bettigole, the health commissioner. Health officials believe the recent spike is being driven by the highly transmissible BA.2 subvariant of omicron, which has spread rapidly throughout Europe and Asia, and has become dominant in the U.S. in recent weeks. “If we fail to act now, knowing that every previous wave of infections has been followed by a wave of hospitalizations, and then a wave of deaths, it will be too late for many of our residents,” said Bettigole, noting about 750 Philadelphia residents died in the wintertime omicron outbreak. “This is our chance to get ahead of the pandemic, to put our masks on until we have more information about the severity of this new variant.” Health inspectors will begin enforcing the mask mandate at city businesses on April 18. Most states and cities dropped their masking requirements in February and early March following new guidelines from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that put less focus on case counts and more on hospital capacity. The CDC said at that time that with the virus in retreat, most Americans could safely take off their masks. Philadelphia ended its indoor mask mandate March 2, and Bettigole acknowledged “it was wonderful to feel that sense of normalcy again.” Confirmed cases have since risen to more than 140 per day — still a fraction of what Philadelphia saw at the height of the omicron surge — while only 46 patients are in the hospital with COVID-19. The CDC says community spread in Philadelphia remains low, a level at which the agency says that masking can be optional. The restaurant industry pushed back against the city’s reimposed mask mandate, saying workers will bear the brunt of customer anger over the new rules. “This announcement is a major blow to thousands of small businesses and other operators in the city who were hoping this spring would be the start of recovery,” said Ben Fileccia, senior director of operations at the Pennsylvania Restaurant & Lodging Association. PolicyLab at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia said Friday that while it expects some increased transmission in the northern U.S. over the next several weeks, hospital admissions have remained low and “our team advises against required masking given that hospital capacity is good.” Bettigole said requiring people to mask up will help restaurants and other businesses stay open, while a huge new wave of COVID-19 would keep customers at home. She said hospital capacity was just one factor that went into her decision to reinstate the mandate. “I sincerely wish we didn’t have to do this again,” Bettigole said. “But I am very worried about our vulnerable neighbors and loved ones.” In New York City, Mayor Eric Adams has paused his push to unwind many of the city’s virus rules as cases have risen, opting for now to keep a mask mandate for 2 to 4-year-olds in city schools and preschools. But Adams, a Democrat who has said New Yorkers should not let the pandemic run their lives, has already lifted most other mask mandates and rules requiring proof of vaccination to dine in restaurants, work out at gyms or attend shows. Adams was asked at a virtual news conference Monday afternoon if he was considering reimposing the New York City mask mandate in light of Philadelphia’s decision. The mayor said he would listen to his team of medical doctors for their advice on whether to bring back any restrictions. Adams himself tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday. New York City is now averaging around 1,800 new cases per day, about three times higher than in early March when New York began easing rules. That does not include the many home tests that go unreported to health officials. The latest outbreak has struck many high-profile officials in Washington, including Cabinet members and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and the governors of New Jersey and Connecticut. Some universities have reinstated mask mandates. D.C. health officials say they have no immediate plans to change virus protocols, but they reserve the right to change course down the road. ___ Rubinkam reported from northeastern Pennsylvania.

Shooting challenges downtown Sacramento's rebuilding efforts SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - The mass shooting that police say was a gun battle between rival gangs that left six dead and 12 wounded earlier this month shook the downtown core of California's capital - and created another challenge for a city trying to redefine itself as a destination for more than just government workers. In recent years, downtown Sacramento has benefited from billions of dollars of development but has been rattled by rising crime, protests resulting in property damage and an economic drubbing caused by the pandemic. Now, the city is reeling from the aftermath of the April 3 shooting, when at least five gunmen fired 100 shots as people left bars and nightclubs. The violence just blocks from the Capitol highlights the successes and challenges many U.S. urban centers are facing as struggles with crime and homelessness persist despite revitalization efforts. Though Sacramento is home to more than 500,000 people, it´s considered sleepy by California standards. The derisive nickname "Cowtown" grew out of its agricultural roots. Today, downtown is at the center of the city´s efforts to become an entertainment and food destination. Local officials have worked to rebrand the city as "America´s Farm to Fork Capital," a nod to a large number of well-regarded restaurants that get ingredients from the region's many farms. A major part of the revitalization is a six-block strip of K Street anchored by a renovated convention center and the Golden 1 Center, home to the NBA's Sacramento Kings and a regular stop for major concert tours. The shooting happened on a block that's home to high-end nightclubs but also dotted by vacant buildings that once housed coffee shops and restaurants. A message left for one of the victims of a recent mass shooting sits among flowers and candles at a memorial in Sacramento, Calif., Saturday, April 9, 2022. The April 3 shooting, which left six dead and 12 wounded, occurred near the state Capitol, an area that in recent years has been rattled by rising crime, protests and the economic drubbing of the pandemic. (AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli) Police have made two arrests connected to the shootings, but no one has been charged with homicide. The violence "came at a really pivotal moment for downtown," said Sacramento City Councilwoman Katie Valenzuela, who represents the area. "It´s causing me to sort of reflect on where we go from here - and as a city, not just as downtown," she said. A century ago, K Street was a bustling, diverse center of activity. But the strip struggled as people moved into the suburbs - giving way to decades of failed revival efforts, including the construction of a mall in the late 1960s and the launch of a light rail commuter line in the 1980s. A fresh wave of investment came to the area about a decade ago, with new businesses opening on K Street as part of an effort to revive downtown after the financial crisis. The Golden 1 Center's 2016 opening sought to build on that, helping generate $6.7 billion in nearby investment and spurring the opening of 150 new businesses, according to the Downtown Sacramento Partnership business group. Then the pandemic hit, sending many of downtown's 100,000 workers home and forcing some businesses closed. Now about 45,000 people work downtown daily, according to the partnership. As employment fell, crime rose. Aggravated assaults, burglaries and vandalism were up in 2020 and 2021 compared to the five previous years for a roughly 100-square block area that includes the Capitol and the arena, according to Sacramento police crime data. The city's central hub has also served as the epicenter for protests focusing on racial justice and police misconduct. Protesters in 2018 shut down a downtown freeway entrance and blocked fans from entering the arena after Sacramento police shot and killed a young Black man. Then demonstrations in 2020 over the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis swept the city. Many downtown properties were vandalized and some were ransacked. "We´ve had a lot of different realities kind of hit downtown in different waves," said Dion Dwyer, director of public space services for business partnership. Now Sacramento is among the ranks of cities recovering from recent mass shootings. Since 2017, there have been 133 mass shootings in the U.S., according to a database compiled by The Associated Press, USA Today and Northeastern University. Dayton, Ohio, in 2019 was shaken when a gunman killed nine people and wounded 17 just after midnight at a bar in the main entertainment district for the city of 140,000. Sandy Gudorf, president of the Downtown Dayton Partnership, said officials mounted an "intentional strategy to reclaim the district" after the shooting. Within three weeks of the violence, there was a free performance by Dave Chappelle, who lives outside the city. The community rallied to support local businesses, but it took time for people to feel comfortable returning to nightlife. The pandemic hit just as that activity was rebounding, Gudorf said. "In people´s minds and hearts they knew that this did not define who we are. It was an incident, it was a tragic incident where we lost lives and people were inured," she said. "I think it just took time to process all of that." Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg repeatedly said people should continue to feel comfortable going downtown. "It´s not one or the other" when it comes to enjoying the city´s entertainment offerings and feeling safe," he said last week. Rachel Muro, a manager at the locally owned Capital Books several storefronts away from the shooting, said downtown has problems like any city but that people should not avoid it. The bookstore's owners recently opened a board game cafe just around the corner. "We believe in this part of town enough to continue to help make it thrive," Muro said. Elsewhere on the block, the area's troubles are obvious, with many office and restaurant spaces vacant. Homelessness downtown and elsewhere in Sacramento has been a vexing problem. Last week the City Council voted to place a measure on the November ballot requiring the city build to more shelter beds and ban encampments on public land. Valenzuela, the councilwoman, opposed the plan and said it was inappropriate to debate that proposal so soon after the tragedy. Crystal Sanchez, president of the Sacramento Homeless Union, said homeless people live downtown because the area has street lighting and lots of activity and plenty of alcoves near businesses where they can shelter. "People are here because there are coves for protection," Sanchez said. At a brewery a few blocks from the shooting site, co-workers enjoying a drink reflected on whether the shooting changed their view of the city. Braden Kolb, who was at a downtown bar for a friend's 30th birthday the night before the shooting, said he patronizes downtown about once a month and that the shooting "is not going to change my behavior." But his friend Jason Slieter said the incident made him wonder if Sacramento is the right place to raise his family, saying he felt a sense of heaviness downtown when coming to work after the six people were killed. "It definitely felt like something had changed," he said. __ Associated Press journalists Adam Beam in Sacramento and Camille Fassett in Oakland contributed.

People across country feeling the heat of sharp rise in fuel prices While the prices of vegetables and several other food items have gone through the roof, the rates of petrol and diesel have increased by about Rs 10 per litre each in the past one month. Besides, the prices of other petroleum products, including cooking gas, have also witnessed a rise in the past few days, adding to the woes of a household. New Delhi: Sharp rise in prices of essential commodities over the past few months and the latest burden of steep hike in fuel rates have made life difficult for almost every section of the society across the country, as people say they are finding it hard to manage their household budget. "The daily hike in fuel prices has made our life difficult. An LPG cylinder now costs around Rs 1,000, while prices of other commodities, including fruits, vegetables, and cooking oil, have sharply increased," said Anudeep Kaur Goraya, a homemaker from Phagwara in Punjab. Ompal Singh, a businessman from Haryana's Hisar who runs a shop in the auto market, said the rising inflation has also hit small businesses and traders. The rising prices have hit almost everyone, either it be a milkman from Madhya Pradesh or a fish vendor from Kerala. Kallu Ram (50), a milkman from Bhopal, said the high petrol price has made a big dent in his savings. "I use a bike to deliver milk to my customers. Now, I have to spend Rs 160 per day on petrol as against Rs 100 a few months ago. I want the price of petrol to be reduced," said Ram. Abdul Rahiman, a fish vendor in Kerala's Kozhikode who uses a two-wheeler for his business, said his daily petrol bill has gone up to Rs 250 which was Rs 150 till last month. "I drive 23km from Perumanna to Puthiyappa fishing harbour in the morning and gather a variety of fishes in the container fitted on my bike. I take a round through Puthiyara, Pottemnal, Chevayur, and Chevarambalam, and return home by 2pm. Now, I have to spend Rs 100 more on petrol every day," he said. Baldev Chand, a retired government employee from Chandigarh, said the price rise has adversely hit the family's budget. "A good part of my pension was already being consumed by the medicines that me and my wife have to take. Now, the rising prices of essential commodities have forced us to cut down on all non-essential expenses," he said. In Delhi's Mayur Vihar-1, Pradeep Kushwaha, a vegetable seller, said the hike in fuel prices is making vegetables costlier in the national capital. "Transportation cost has gone up by 10-15% due to steep hike in the prices of petrol, diesel and CNG. It is causing a ripple effect on vegetable prices," Kushwaha said. The steep hike in CNG prices (about Rs 10 per kg in the past one month) has also prompted auto and cab drivers to threaten an indefinite strike from April 18. Rajendra Soni, General Secretary of Delhi Auto-rickshaw Sangh, said, "CNG is now sold at over Rs 69 per kg. We demand that the government should provide Rs 35 per kg subsidy on CNG so that we can survive. We will go on an indefinite strike from April 18 if our demand is not met," Soni said. Rising petrol prices have squeezed the income of Anand Vaghela, a contractual worker with a public sector firm in Ahmedabad. Vaghela, who travels around 30 kilometres daily on his two-wheeler, says he is not able to save a single penny. "Not just petrol, prices of almost everything have increased in the past few months. As a result, I am unable to manage my household budget," says Vaghela, who lives in a rented apartment along with his wife and two children. Similarly, Rahul Desai, a marketing professional from South Goa, claimed that his travel expense has really gone up. "Petrol is available at Rs 105 per litre in Goa. I used to spend Rs 3,000 to fill my car's fuel tank some four months ago, but now I have to shell out more than Rs 4,000," he said. In Chhattisgarh's capital Raipur, Kamini Patel who sells vegetables at a market in the city, says the rise in fuel prices has affected both the consumers and vendors. "Earlier I used to earn up to Rs 1,500 daily, but my earning has come down below Rs 1,000 in the past few days as people are reluctant to buy vegetables at higher rates," she said. An elderly couple who runs a small roadside eatery in Bengaluru said the rise in prices of edible oil and domestic gas have impacted them a lot. "We want to increase the rates of food items, but we fear losing some customers if we do so. These days we are not making profits," the couple said. G V Raju, who runs a fast food joint in Hyderabad, said the price rise has hit the common man as well as small businessmen hard. "The prices of fuel, vegetables, chicken, edible oil and many other items have increased substantially. But, I cannot hike the prices of food items I sell as I may lose customers. So, I am not earning any profit these days," he said. Hotels and restaurants, reeling under losses on account of the COVID-19 pandemic, said the hike in prices of LPG cylinders and other commodities has dealt a fresh blow to their business. "Prices of commercial LPG cylinders have gone up, so have the rates of all the essential commodities. It has led to an overall cost increase by 20 per cent. Restaurants are unable to hike prices of items fearing they might lose customers," Hotel and Restaurant Association of Eastern India president Suresh Poddar said. Deepak Sahijwala, a financial consultant from Mumbai, said, "High fuel prices are here to stay as long as the Ukraine crisis continues. For India, the worry is the high inflation that becomes a consequence. The only solution for the government is to bring fuel under the GST. This will substantially reduce prices at the retail level." After almost a four-month hiatus, the oil marketing companies increased the prices of petrol and diesel by 80 paise a litre each on March 21, and since then they have revised the rates several times.

Tata Motors plans to ramp up EV production as demand spikes In an interaction with PTI, Tata Motors Managing Director Passenger Vehicle and Electric Vehicles Shailesh Chandra noted that huge demand for its EV range has led to a backlog of customer orders. Tata Motors is looking to ramp up the production of electric vehicles as demand continues to outpace the manufacturing activity by a huge margin, according to a top company official. The Mumbai-based automaker, which led the passenger electric vehicle space in the domestic market in last fiscal year, has been receiving an average of 5,500-6,000 bookings in the past two months for its EV range. The company sells three electric products -- Nexon EV, Tigor EV and XPRES-T -- in the domestic market. It has also recently unveiled a coupe style SUV which it plans to launch in the next two years. In an interaction with PTI, Tata Motors Managing Director Passenger Vehicle and Electric Vehicles Shailesh Chandra noted that huge demand for its EV range has led to a backlog of customer orders. "We are seeing that the demand is significantly outpacing the supply. The numbers are just the ones which we are able to supply, the demand is definitely much stronger which is reflected in the number of bookings with us," he said when asked about the EV demand scenario. The acceptance of EVs is there, in the last one-two months, the company has been getting an average of 5,500-6,000 bookings per month, he added. The company, however, was able to supply just around 3,300-3,400 units last month, Chandra said. "So every month there is a backlog (of orders) for us," he stated. Chandra noted that the company is trying to ramp up the capacities by increasing the sourcing of semiconductors. The company has initiated various steps like design modifications as well as sourcing from multiple vendors to increase the availability of the essential semiconductors. "These steps have allowed us to significantly ramp up production. Just seven months ago we were producing just 600 units but then such actions have helped us to increase it to 1,500-1,700 levels and then 3,000-3500 levels. This will continue," Chandra said. When asked about sales aspirations for this year, Chandra stated: "Last year, we grew by five folds, and therefore the aspiration would be definitely to grow not in increments but in multiples." As per FADA, Tata Motors led the electric passenger vehicle segment in 2021-22 with retails of 15,198 units and a market share of 85.37 per cent in the vertical. When asked if electric vehicles sales could account for 30 per cent of overall passenger vehicle sales by 2030, Chandra noted: "I would believe that the demand can be significantly higher than 30 per cent level because when the inflection point is hit then the growth is absolutely uncontrollable." The main factors which will limit the growth will be the pace of supply ramp-up and capacity and ecosystem development, he added. "From a demand perspective, we have seen it shot up in no time. Despite various ramp-ups, we are still not able to meet the demand. So the demand will definitely, we believe, go beyond this 30 per cent mark," Chandra noted. In the biggest ever EV fire incident in the country, 20 electric scooters from Jitendra EV caught fire near Nashik on Saturday as they were being transported. Company has launched an investigation to ascertain the cause of the fire. No casualties were reported. 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.

Melissa Caddick's suspected death to be investigated by NSW Coroner in September The NSW Coroner has confirmed a start date for an inquest into the disappearance of Sydney fraudster Melissa Caddick. Key points: - ASIC alleges Melissa Caddick used investors' money to buy luxury goods and property - She allegedly left 72 investors more than $23 million out of pocket. - Her decomposed foot was found on a beach in February last year Ms Caddick, 49, has not been seen since she left her Dover Heights home without her mobile phone, wallet or keys just before sunrise on November 12, 2020. Police considered her dead when her foot was found on a beach around 400 kilometres from where she was last seen more than three months later. The day before she disappeared, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) officials raided Ms Caddick's home. It's since been alleged she was misappropriating investor funds through her financial services company, Maliver, and operating without a licence. Last year there was uncertainty whether the coroner would hold an inquest but today hearings were confirmed for September 12 to 26. Police have previously said the fact Ms Caddick left personal belongings at her home suggests she took her own life. But some criminologists have raised questions about this — arguing someone could survive having a foot removed. One criminologist told the ABC the case was akin to a "Russian nesting doll" as each development unearthed more questions. The 49-year-old, who posed as a financial adviser, allegedly misappropriated investors' money to buy real estate, holidays, and luxury goods over a period of eight years and sent them fictitious portfolio evaluations. ASIC is currently in the Federal Court trying to recoup more than $23 million left owing to 72 clients of Ms Caddick. Yesterday, the court released a statement on behalf of Ms Caddick's parents in which they claimed their daughter fleeced them of more than $1 million. The couple claimed their daughter convinced them to sell their Connells Point home and contribute $1 million to her loan on an Edgecliff property. They say their daughter acted fraudulently and dishonestly and didn't use the money as agreed. Ms Caddick's husband, Anthony Koletti, has always maintained his wife didn't misappropriate funds from investors and recently accused ASIC of "dehumanising his wife".

ATLANTA (AP) — The National Urban League released its annual report on the State of Black America on Tuesday, and its findings are grim. This year’s Equality Index shows Black people still get only 73.9 percent of the American pie white people enjoy. While Black people have made economic and health gains, they’ve slipped farther behind whites in education, social justice and civic engagement since this index was launched in 2005. A compendium of average outcomes by race in many aspects of life, it shows just how hard it is for people of color to overcome systemic racism, the civil rights organization says. "These numbers change so little and so slowly. What it tells me is that this institutional disparity based on race seems to be built into American society,” National Urban League President Marc Morial said in an interview. The index shows not only that median household income for Black people, at $43,862, is 37% less than that of white people, at $69,823. Black people also are less likely to benefit from home ownership, the engine of generational wealth in America. Census data shows Black couples are more than twice as likely as whites to be denied a mortgage or a home improvement loan, which leads to just 59% of the median home equity white households have, and just 13% of their wealth. “In that area of wealth, we’ve seen almost no change, none, since the civil rights days,” Morial said. “The wealth disparity has gotten wider.” Among dozens of health measures, one stands out: Life expectancy has declined slightly for African Americans, so a Black child born today can expect to live to 74.7, four years less than a white baby. And lifelong inequities loom: Black women are 59% more likely to die as a result of bearing a child, and 31% more likely to die of breast cancer. Black men are 52% more likely to die of prostate cancer. Overdoses afflict the races about equally, while white people are 55% more likely to drink themselves to death through cirrhosis or chronic liver disease. Among people 15-24, white people are more than twice as likely to commit suicide, while Black men are nine times more likely to die by homicide. Educational gaps abound: Black and white preschoolers are roughly equally prepared, but the classrooms they enter are starkly different. Schools with more minority students are more likely to have inexperienced, less trained and even uncertified teachers. Fewer of these students are enrolled in the STEM classes that can lead to higher-paying jobs. Black students are less likely to graduate college. The index uses U.S. Justice Department statistics to chart social justice differences, noting that Black people have been more than twice as likely as white people to experience threats or uses of force during police encounters, and three times more likely to be jailed if arrested. In 2020, they were 93% more likely to be victims of hate crime. Measuring civic engagement, the index cites 2020 Census data showing that white people are about 5% more likely to be registered and to actually vote than Black people. Morial chose to release the report in Atlanta, where a concentration of historically Black colleges have long represented high achievement among African Americans, in part because its survey shows a declining faith among young people that voting can make a difference. The Urban League is responding by launching a “Reclaim Your Vote” campaign. “Georgia is ground zero for voter suppression. The legislature’s actions after Jan. 6 have been sweeping in their aggressiveness to suppress the vote,” Morial said. “We've got to remain resolute, to push back against this. We cannot give in. We cannot give up.”

Next Game The Grizzlies will face the winner of the 7-8 Play-In Game between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Los Angeles Clippers in the first round of the Western Conference Playoffs. Fans can watch on Bally Sports Southeast and listen on ESPN 92.9 FM Team Quotes On the post-game celebration:I'm really proud of the effort. Give Boston credit they're a heck of a team. They’re tough even if we are healthy, but just super proud of the effort that our guys gave. We didn't get some shots to fall, some defensive miscues here and there but our guys are trying and they're playing hard. A lot of guys played a lot of minutes that they may not have been used to as well. We just love the spirit and energy. I think we talked about it before or I talked to someone before the game about the energy that our guys have, whether they're in street clothes or in the uniform, they just cheer each other on, which is awesome. And tonight Konchar got a triple-double. How cool is that. His teammates were egging him on he even was like, ‘Oh, I'm only two away’ and for his teammates to kind of rally for him was pretty special, but that's what this group is. And we’re going do more of that moving forward. On the biggest takeaway for tonight’s game:Opportunities. I think Ziaire (Williams) has gotten a lot of opportunity this year. Seeing (De’Anthony) Melton in a little bit more of a primary playmaker role, seeing Santi (Aldama) and Xavier (Tillman) play quite a bit, just seeing a lot different guys play more minutes and just get those opportunities. We've had a very deep team and the lineups they change every now and then but certain guys just getting more exposure. It just helps me move forward, how we develop our player development program for guys, for our roster moving forward, but I know these guys love to compete and they try to play the right way. That's my biggest takeaway for them and then also individually just how we can help them continue to grow. We want to win and all those things, but if we can go out there and just see how we can continue to grow these guys for the future that's really important to us. On the teams’ connection:One of our running jokes right now because with Konchar’s triple-double, Jaren breaking the blocks record, Steven Adams with the rebounding record, like there's been a lot of records this year and that there's not a lot of balls left in our practice facility because they've given out so many game balls to these guys. And it was great early on, but now guys are going like oh, here's another one, and they're pouring water on each other. So you'll see Konchar in here covered and drenched. That spirit, it's not just on the floor, it's off the floor. These guys are super connected. I haven't been around a group that's this connected, this positive all the time, win or lose they pick each other up, they pick me up and they motivate me every single day. I know I use the word special a lot but when you get to live every single day, you know a night like tonight seeing Konchar cap it off with a triple-double in the celebration there and you see our guys how they celebrate postgame with each other every single night. That is who we are. On how the playoffs are different this year:I know it's a cliché word or phrase but we just got more experience. I think last year's run into the play-in tournament, getting into the playoffs, going through that first experience and a lot of hard takeaways about where we've got to get better individually, as a team, game management, trusting our standards and more trusting each other. I've seen that unfold throughout the season. I think the depth of our team has shown a lot more than previous years where different guys have elevated the roles if they're called to do different things on a given night or a stretch of games. I think the connectivity of this team obviously the bonds that they have, I always say when you're bonded off the floor and together, but you can really take that next step and make that on the court. Some teams are connected off the court, but maybe not on the court. I've seen that translation where guys are super connected off the floor and on the court. We know we still have to push ourselves even more, the attention to detail and the executions have to be even more. But our guys and their confidence that they play with any given night, no matter who's in the lineup, who we're playing, where we're playing with the stakes doesn't matter. I've seen a lot of maturation and evolution there. On the approach the next few days:We’ve got to strike a good balance. We don't know when our first game is going to be. They will come in Tuesday and practice and just make it about us not knowing who our opponent is and really just focus on our nitty gritty details, offensive execution and defensive coverages. We've got a lot in our pocket and our tool belt that we can use, preparing for no matter who we're going to play, but really just make it about us. Wednesday will be our install day because we'll obviously know our opponent come Tuesday night, so that'll be our install day. Then we may have two or three more days to practice depending on the schedule. To me it's about striking that right balance between mentally fresh, physically fresh but also stretching them a little bit so that they know that we got to get to that extra gear, both mentally and physically, but I try not over-do it. Every series can be a long series. It's not a sprint, it's a marathon. This is a first example of a week, don't sprint through it. Let's just carry it as a marathon one day at a time. On his first career triple-double:It was pretty neat. It was pretty cool. You can thank my teammates for making the shots. It was a fun game. On becoming aware of triple-double:After the third quarter, during that time out, a couple of them said that I was one rebound and three assists short. So, I went in and tried to pass it and get some people some open shots. On the team’s chemistry:Everybody celebrates for each other. It’s awesome. We’ve got a great chemistry going. All throughout the season, it’s fun being around these guys. On his dunk in first half:I saw Santi (Aldama) drive through the middle. I can cut pretty well, and I saw an opening. I can jump off my right foot well and quickly. I just dunked it with my left. A little dunk shot. On team’s message throughout the season:We just stay together. Through the highs and lows. From the beginning of the season, we started 9-10, I think. There were some lows. We never get too high. We never get too low. We just play together hard and have fun. On getting the game ball:They gave me the ball, so it’s pretty cool. I’ll probably put a case around it or something cool like that and put it somewhere, get the guys to sign it. On accomplishing expectations from the beginning of the season:At the beginning of the season, I don’t think I started playing that well. I needed to adjust to the three, and shoot more threes, be more consistent with it. I went through a month or so where I shot really well. I just need to stay consistent with that and keep working hard with it. On playing with teammates from the Memphis Hustle:It’s awesome. They’re both freak athletes. Yves (Pons) did a couple of blocks today that were pretty crazy. They’ve been playing pretty well down at Hustle. They’ve just got to stay with it. They played really well the last couple of games here. It was fun, it’s good for them. On John Konchar’s triple-double:Great effort by John. Great rebounder, honestly. He’s one of the most underrated rebounders, I feel like, in the league. We were definitely trying to give him a few extra assists at the end. Jitty, he works hard. He’s an incredible teammate, so I’m happy for him. On team’s chemistry:It’s a joy every day. Whether it’s a win or a loss. We’re always smiles and laughs. It’s an incredible amount of support from the staff, players, coaches. It’s a fun group. I’m blessed to be a part of this exciting culture. I’m really looking forward to the future, the playoffs, and really growing with these guys. On growth from the beginning of the season to now:I feel like I’ve grown as a young, black man. Figuring things out on my own in a new city. That’s where it really starts from. Learning through the ups, learning through the downs. Not trying to get too high or too low, just steadily trying to elevate my game one day at a time. It’s a lot of sleepless nights. It’s a lot of restful nights. It’s all about finding that balance. I feel like I’ve found a pretty good routine for every day. Especially on days where we’re practicing and getting vitamins in. Just working out with Darko (Rajakovic), Desmond (Bane), John, and the whole team really. They really just push me to elevate my game. No matter how many shots I missed this year, there was not one time where they told me to stop shooting. It was always, ‘Shoot again. If you’re open shoot again. Shoot it with confidence. Let it fly.’ That’s what I enjoy the most about this team. I’ve never ever felt like I let them down. Even though, internally, I felt like I knew I let them down. They would never let me feel that way. That’s the main thing. I’ve always been the guy to battle through adversity. My father taught me better than to just give up. That’s really the main thing, fighting and persevering through the obstacles. Nothing is going to be easy. I just try to keep that mentality, and take it one day at a time. Every time I step on the court, just use it was a blessing. On getting more minutes tonight:It’s fun. That’s what it’s all about, learning, playing through the mistakes, playing in different positions trying to get used to it. The best experience you can get is on the court. Just game-time reps. That’s another thing that has helped me a lot. Through my struggles, coach has still stuck with me and allowed me to learn through those mistakes. I couldn’t thank them enough for that. It was just another one of those games to get a fill for it. That’s going to be a big priority for me in the summer and summer league. Working on my own ball stuff, getting stronger in the weight room. Getting more on the ball reps. It was a fun game. Even though we didn’t get the outcome we wanted, it was still fun just to be out there. At the end of the day, we’re still playing basketball. This is what we all love. So, I’m just blessed to be in this position.

Thousands of pensioners may be in line for a payout due to past errors in payments, according to a former Government minister. The mistakes have come to light after Freedom of Information requests from former pensions minister Steve Webb. And Mr Webb, who served as Minister for State for Pensions in David Cameron's coalition government, has slammed the length of time it has taken the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) to uncover the underpayments. The main errors affect two groups of pensioners, who now may be due to extra payments to make up the shortfall: - Couples where one partner has died - Married women getting the new state pension Read more: People who claimed PIP after August 2020 may get £5000 payout Many pensioners hit by the mistakes should have been identified already and received top-up payments, but Mr Webb told The Mirror they should check, especially older married women, as mistakes are still ongoing. In couples where one partner has died, the mistakes affect people who reached state pension age before April 6, 2016, and inherited a pension from their deceased partner who reached state pension age after them. Some of these inherited pensions grew by less than they should have due to DWP errors. Mr Webb said another group of people with smaller state pensions than they should have are women who paid what was known as the 'married woman's stamp'. These stamps are reduced National Insurance contributions offered as an option to all women who worked before 1977, and millions took them up. At the time, many women relied heavily on their husbands' pensions and not their own, but changes to pension rules in April 2016 meant women now get state pension payments based on their own National Insurance record, not their husband's. Women paying the married woman's stamp faced lower state pensions, but they may be eligible for top-up payments from the DWP. The latest finding is that many women are still not being paid the right amount, despite the problem coming to light in 2019 . Steve Webb, who is now a partner in financial firm Lane, Clark and Peacock (LCP), said: "Whilst anyone can make a mistake, what is worrying about this catalogue of errors is how long it can take for anyone to spot that anything is wrong. In one case it was three years after the new state pension was implemented before anyone spotted a systematic problem with the payments to certain married women. "It is also surprising that information about these errors and correction exercises has not previously been made public. DWP need to improve on two fronts – better error checking to make sure people are not paid the wrong pension in the first place, and greater transparency so that the public is told when things have gone wrong." A DWP spokesperson said: “This year we will spend over £100billion on the state pension and our priority is ensuring every pensioner receives all the financial support to which they are entitled. These correction exercises highlight how, where errors do occur, they are identified and rectified.”

From 'so what?' to 'he should have known' in under 24 hours - John Howard changes his tune on Albo's campaign blunder - John Howard has changed his view overnight about Anthony Albanese's gaffe - Mr Albanese couldn't answer questions about the unemployment and cash rate - John Howard dismissed the error but later said Mr Albanese 'should have known' John Howard has changed his opinion about Anthony Albanese's blunder after the Labor leader was unable to answer two straightforward economic questions posed by reporters. Mr Albanese was asked what Australia's unemployment rate and Reserve Bank cash rate were - both of which he couldn't answer - during a press conferences held on the first full day of the election campaign on Monday. John Howard surprisingly defended Mr Albanese's blunder when he was asked about it by reporters yesterday. 'Is that a serious question?' the former Prime Minister asked. 'Okay, well Anthony Albanese didn't know the unemployment rate. So what?' Mr Albanese (pictured) was asked what Australia's unemployment rate and Reserve Bank cash rate were - both of which he couldn't answer - during a press conferences held on the first full day of the election campaign on Monday However, less than 24 hours later Mr Howard had changed his view about the opposition leader's gaffe at the West Australian's Leadership Matters breakfast at Crown Perth on Tuesday, believing the Labor leader should've known the answer to both questions. 'He should have known that figure, let's not muck about,' he said during a Q&A session at the event. 'Anybody who wants to be Prime Minister should be on top of that.' Howard attended the event as he took part in the Liberals' pre-election campaigning in the state. Mr Albanese's fumble over the cash rate was reminiscent of John Howard's false answer when he was also asked about the same subject during an interview on A Current Affair leading up to the 2007 election. While being interviewed, the former Prime Minister was asked the reserve bank's official rate. Mr Howard incorrectly answered: 'It's 6.25 per cent', while his Labor rival Kevin Rudd answered the question correctly the same night. John Howard changed his view on Anthony Albanese's blunder. He initially dismissed the gaffe before stating at the Leadership Matters breakfast at Crown Perth the following day that Mr Albanese 'should have known that figure' Mr Albanese's fumble over the cash rate was reminiscent of John Howard's incorrect answer when he was also asked about the same subject during an interview on A Current Affair leading up to the 2007 election Ten News political reporter Stela Todorovic, who twice asked Mr Albanese to name the cash rate, denied her straightforward question had been a 'gotcha' moment. 'The cash rate hasn't changed since 2020 and for someone who is campaigning to be the alternative Prime Minister, I feel like Anthony Albanese should have had this on a cheat card in his notes,' Ms Todorovic told The Project on Monday night. 'You could say it was a gotcha moment, but it wasn't intended to be. 'At the end of the day when the interest rate hikes up in June, that will affect millions and millions of Australians, so I'm pretty sure that a lot of them would like to know that the Prime Minister of the country, if that's Anthony Albanese, Scott Morrison or whoever else, has these answers and he certainly isn't the first leader of a political party to not get these figures right.' Ms Todorovic admitted there had been some lingering shock among those at the press conference but said to his credit the Labor leader had 'bounced back'. 'If he does get asked these questions or similar questions, he will have learnt from today and maybe have the answers right up his sleeve,' she said. Ten News political reporter Stela Todorovic, who twice asked Mr Albanese to name the cash rate (pictured), denied her 'straightforward' question had been a 'gotcha' moment In an effort to prove to voters he was willing to take responsibility for his mistakes, the opposition leader fronted reporters again to make amends for the error (pictured) Journalists quizzed the Labor leader on the figures in a press conference in the marginal seat of Bass in northern Tasmania, a day after the election was called. The cash rate has been at a historic low of 0.1 per cent since November 2020 while the unemployment rate is four per cent, the lowest since 2008. Shadow Finance Minister Katy Gallagher was able to answer both questions correctly. Coalition campaign spokesman Simon Birmingham immediately seized on the blunder. He said: 'If you don't know what the interest rate is, you can't be trusted to put the right policies in place to keep them low. 'If you don't know what the unemployment rate is, you can't be trusted to keep Australians in jobs.' In an effort to prove to voters he was willing to take responsibility for his mistakes, the opposition leader fronted reporters again to make amends for the error. 'I'm human. But when I make a mistake, I will fess up to it and I will set about correcting that mistake,' Mr Albanese said. 'I won't blame someone else, I will take responsibility.'

Young couple who lost their $75,000 house deposit after a bank screw-up reveal how they finally managed to buy a house despite soaring property prices - Mark Trau and Maddie Goyder lost a $75,000 house deposit due to their bank - After their case become widely known the bank reimbursed them - The laws in Queensland were also changed to prevent similar situations - The young couple have now bought their first house on the Sunshine Coast An engaged couple who lost their $75,000 house deposit they had saved since they were teenagers to 'greedy' sellers have finally purchased their own home. Mark Trau, 30, and Maddie Goyder, 27, made headlines last year when their bank was a day late in meeting the 30-day settlement for their $965,000 dream property, causing them to lose their 10 per cent deposit. The four-bedroom house at Jindalee in Brisbane's west was sold hours later by the retired owners to a different buyer for an extra $64,000, netting them an additional $140,000 in total. The couple were left with neither a house or their deposit, which a shattered Ms Goyder described as 'like being robbed', until their bank Westpac admitted their mistake. Mark Trau and his fiance Maddie Goyder (pictured) lost their $75,000 after a manual failure from their bank A controversial property rule that has left thousands of Australians out of pocket is set to be changed in sweeping new legislation (pictured: the house the couple missed out on) 'We threw everything at this. The bank was the one thing that stopped it from happening on the day,' Mr Trau previously said. Westpac paid back the couple their $75,000 as well as an additional $25,000 to help them find a new home to buy and $5,000 each for the stress they had been put under. The return of their money has now allowed them to finally purchase a house. With prices soaring thanks to the property market bubble, Brisbane was unfortunately proving too expensive - even just six months on - and the couple had to look elsewhere. They eventually found a house in Buderim on the Sunshine Coast just over an hour's drive north and while it doesn't have a pool they are just minutes from the beach. 'We're loving it, it seems a little bit surreal. Guess the wild ride worked out for us in the end,' Mr Trau told news.com.au this week. The sellers of the Brisbane house (pictured) sold to another buyer hours later for an extra $65,000 and kept the young couple's deposit 'We ended up settling in a place for $940,000 and Westpac helped a bit with a better fixed rate because they had jumped up since the Brisbane house,' he said. He added the pair were also finalising plans to get married later this year saying it was 'all coming together' for them. The furore over their case has also resulted in a change to property laws in Queensland. While other states and territories allow a two-week grace period if settlement falls through, the Sunshine State - which prides itself on super fast property transactions - previously did not. This leaves buyers open to losing tens of thousands of dollars through circumstances which are often not their fault. But from January 20, the Real Estate Institute of Queensland changed the rule to prevent similar situations for other would-be buyers. The rule won't disappear entirely - they will have five extra days to settle the property before the contract can be cancelled and the deposit kept. The buyer or seller in the transaction must apply for an extension in writing before 4pm of the cut-off day, and the seller is forced to accept. They can apply for multiple extensions but it must not extend past five days from the set settlement date. Mark Trau (pictured with Ms Goyder) said it 'worked out in the end' with the pair buying a property of their own on the Sunshine Coast near the beach The REIQ said the change came about after reports of significant delays in property transactions by banks, largely due to Covid. 'Because of the volume of transactions that's happening and because of Covid-19, banks are often causing delays,' chief executive Antonia Mercorella previously said. 'What we've been seeing is that banks are often not ready. Obviously we recognise that is outside the control of either party.' She said the seller cannot reject the extension request from the buyer. 'It is a contractual right, you can't say no,' Ms Mercorella said.

Boozie, a six-year-old St Bernard, was rescued by animal lovers from Narela in Outer Delhi a few months ago. Chained inside a compound and fed infrequently, her eyesight was diminishing and health deteriorating. Now Boozie is recuperating at the Fauna Police shelter in Vasant Kunj. Lado, a one-and-a-halfyear-old Saint Bernard, also ended up in a shelter home after a couple residing in South Delhi bought and subsequently abandoned it when they could not devote the resources and energy needed for her well-being. Abhinav Srihan, Fauna Police member and animal rights activist, says at least one such pedigreed dog is abandoned in the Capital every day. According to Srihan, people perceive them as status symbols and buy thoroughbred puppies to show-off without any knowledge of the breed's dietary and upkeep requirements. "Saint Bernards belong to the Swiss and Italian Alps. They are huge, furry and docile dogs which were actually bred for Alpine rescue missions during avalanches. If one buys or adopts such a dog in India, it needs to be taken care of. This dog has a heavy diet. Owing to the big size, it cannot just fit anywhere and it drools since the weather is hot. People need to give the dog air-conditioning or keep it in cooler climes during the summer. Owning a Saint Bernard is not a joke, it's a responsibility for 15-16 years," adds Srihan. THE GREED TO BREED The desire to own pure-bred or foreign-origin dogs is leading to uncontrolled breeding and in the paucity of proper knowledge on raising them, they end up being abandoned on the streets of the National Capital. So alarming is the rate at which these exotic breeds are being deserted that most animal shelters across the National Capital Region (NCR) are almost full-house. Great Dane, German Shepherd, Doberman Pinscher, Labrador, Pitbull and other similar medium and large breeds are among the abandoned animals that end up at shelter homes. Despite a ban on import of dogs for breeding and other commercial activities in May 2016, illegal breeding centres (run from farmhouses), are thriving in Gurugram, Ghaziabad, Narela and Faridabad. Experts say India has a very large indigenous dog population on the streets. "We really don't need more dogs to be bred. That's why the government of India banned the import of pedigree dogs for breeding purposes in 2016," says Gauri Maulekhi, a Delhi-based lawyer and animal activist. Later, the Law Commission of India also recommended that the breeding be regulated because there is a lot of abuse for commercial reasons. We really don’t need more dogs to be bred.That’s why the government of India banned the import of pedigree dogs for breeding purposes in 2016. On the directions of Delhi High Court, the ministry of environment and forests notified The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Dog Breeding and Marketing) Rules, 2017 to protect dogs during the breeding process. "These rules make it mandatory for every dog breeder to be registered with the state animal welfare board. But currently most state animal welfare boards are not taking punitive action against illegal dog breeders," adds Maulekhi. A MATTER OF UPBRINGING Experts say large breeds such as Pitbull, German Shepherd, Great Dane, Dachshund and Boxer are not meant to be confined to modern-day apartments. These pets need a family that has a farmhouse so that the space can take care of their hyper-activeness. "If a person confines them inside an apartment, he has to take the dog to the park at least 5-6 times a day, which is usually not feasible. As a result, the non-exercise routine makes the dog unhealthy. There are times when they start biting humans and behaving abnormally. This is why most owners end up abandoning the dog," said Vikram Kochhar, Honorary District Animal Welfare Officer of Animal Welfare Board of India, a statutory advisory body which works with the Ministry of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairy. An equally big problem, says Kochchar, is breeding without regulation. "Cross breeding without proper knowledge also leads to unhealthy dogs. Unscrupulous breeders sell puppies as young as 25 days old, when they haven't even been weaned off the mother. Generally these health issues manifest themselves after one year of age. As the treatment of these dogs is costly, most of the time the owner prefers to abandon the animal altogether," he says. PRICE OF PEDIGREE Like Saint Bernards, Doberman Pinschers (also known as 'German Tax Collectors') are also at the receiving end of human apathy. Six-year-old Chocolate, for instance, was spotted running on the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway. He was dumped by his owners at the busy expressway, where death awaited him any moment. Thankfully animal rights activists spotted him and he was taken to the Fauna Police centre. "Breeds like Doberman are on the top in being dumped. This is a wonderful breed and requires special attention. It's a working dog and it needs to be in the park or in the jungle or on an hour-long walk every day. One can't just keep a Doberman confined inside the house. This is one of the world's best guard dogs and since it is huge, it has an enormous daily diet. Also, poor handling of such breeds is making them aggressive - one of the reasons cited by those abandoning such dogs," said Srihan. Saint Bernards belong to the Swiss and Italian Alps. If one buys or adopts such a dog in India, it needs to be taken care of.This dog has a heavy diet.People need to give the dog air-conditioning or keep it in cooler climes during the summer. Owning a Saint Bernard is not a joke, it’s a responsibility for 15-16 years. Rescuers believe that almost every pedigreed breed is prone to being abandoned. "Labradors and Retrievers are the most commonly abandoned breeds, followed closely by Pugs and St Bernards," said Amrita Mulekhi, a rescuer in a shelter home in Kirti Nagar in West Delhi. Pugs are another breed which animal rescuers find abandoned frequently. People tend to purchase them believing they are a smaller, low-maintenance breed. But Pugs are prone to many health issues including respiratory ailments - because of their flat snout. Noida-based animal rights activist Sanjay Mohapatra, who had rescued the dog of the Burari family, 11 members of whom had committed suicide in July last year, says people must read up about dogs or at least consult an expert over the phone before taking a dog home. "Tommy, the Burari family dog, had died 22 days after I rescued him. He was tied on the roof on the fateful day. He was a Pitbull mix. He was sick and very aggressive. He was being used for tantric purposes and hadn't been taken care of properly. We tried very hard to save him but couldn't. Once a dog enters your house, it becomes a member of the family. One must never treat a dog like a toy. Large dogs such as German Shepherd Pitbulls, Great Danes, Labradors and Golden Retrievers are being dumped at an alarming rate," said Sanjay. Once a dog enters your house, it becomes a member of the family.One must never treat a dog like a toy.Large dogs such as German Shepherd, Pitbulls, Great Danes, Labradors and Golden Retrievers are being dumped at an alarming rate. Experts said that the Animal Cruelty Act allows the offender to get away with a negligible fine and punishment. The Act doesn't apply to those abandoning their dogs at shelters, they said. On streets, it is hard for the activist to spot people abandoning their dogs. Activists say chip-tagging of dogs, online registration of animals and strict rules for breeders could help fight these malpractices. Also, the law should get teeth with stricter enforcement and a heftier fine.

2 months, 12 days, only had a craving once, this weekend, when I found out Chris Lam had committed suicide (see survivors' thread) Resisted. Still sober. This year's challenge is 6 months. Ultimately, I want to be in a position where I never drink another drop again. In the same way that I'd never smoke a cigarette again, because I know I'd be violently sick if I did.

Taiwan's military releases war survival guide for civilians amid China tensions The guide uses comic strips and pictures with tips to survive a military attack, such as how to distinguish air raid sirens and ways to shelter from missiles. Tuesday 12 April 2022 07:45, UK Taiwan's military has released a war survival handbook for civilians as Russia's invasion of Ukraine focuses attention on how the island should respond to pressure from China. China has never renounced the use of force to bring Taiwan under its control, and has stepped up military activities nearby in the past two years, to press it into accepting its sovereignty claims. Taiwan's guide sets out how to find bomb shelters via smartphone apps, water and food supplies, as well as tips for preparing emergency first aid kits. It uses comic strips and pictures with tips to survive a military attack, such as how to distinguish air raid sirens and ways to shelter from missiles. "(We) are providing information on how citizens should react in a military crisis and possible disasters to come," Liu Tai-yi, an official of the ministry's All-out Defence Mobilisation unit, told an online news conference. That would enable safety preparedness and help people to survive, he said, adding that it would be further updated with localised information on the sites of shelters, hospitals and shops for daily needs. Planning for the handbook predates the war in Ukraine, and Taiwan has not reported any sign of an imminent invasion, but the island nation has raised its alert level in recent weeks. President Tsai Ing-wen has vowed repeatedly to defend the country and is overseeing a broad modernisation programme to make its forces more mobile and harder to attack. Besides the plans unveiled last year to reform training for reserve forces, the government is looking to extend compulsory military service beyond four months.

By Joe Hoppe Warpaint London PLC said Tuesday that positive momentum from a strong 2021 has continued into the first quarter of 2022, with sales for the first three months up 60% on year. The U.K. cosmetics company said first-quarter gross product margins also showing an improvement, despite increased costs in the supply chain. It said that sales of its W7-branded products through Tesco PLC stores continue to perform well and that it has successfully launched products in an initial 80 Boots stores, where the brand is performing in-line with both party's expectations. A contract has also been secured with a further major U.K. grocer. Warpaint said its U.S. business continues to grow, with six new accounts opened in the country and several Christmas-gifting orders received from new customers. Online sales continue to accelerate and for the first quarter of 2022 were up 29% on the comparable period in 2021, aided by sales of the W7 brand in China. Write to Joe Hoppe at joseph.hoppe@wsj.com

The leader of the SNP in Glasgow has said she will step down if the party loses May’s council election. Susan Aitken took over as the leader of Glasgow City Council in 2017, heading up an SNP minority administration. While a recent poll suggested 44% of those asked would vote for the SNP on May 5, Ms Aitken told the Herald on Monday she would quit as the head of the party’s delegation if she was not the leader of the council following the election. The party in Glasgow would need a “fresh start”, Ms Aitken said. “If the SNP were to lose the election and as a consequence of that I was no longer leader of the council, I would also stand down as leader of the SNP group,” she said. “Because at that point clearly, the group would need the opportunity to have a fresh start and to rebuild, and I think new leadership would be important in that respect. “I am confident that I have colleagues who more than have the capacity and ability to take on that role.” The comment comes as Ms Aitken did not rule out a formal coalition with Labour councillors – saying that would be more likely than an agreement with the Scottish Greens. Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar has repeatedly ruled out formal coalitions with other parties in favour working together on a vote-by-vote basis. “Anas Sarwar has said Labour won’t do any deals with the SNP. I think that is very foolish I’ve got to say,” Ms Aitken told the newspaper. “There are some pretty well functioning SNP and Labour administrations, Edinburgh, East Renfrewshire, Stirling, Dumfries and Galloway, Fife. There’s quite a few of them.” She added: “If our Labour colleagues were up for something constructive, mature conversations about how we move forward for the good of the city, then we would be happy to have those conversations with them too. Whether they are in that space or not, I’m not sure. It’s up to them.” While the SNP group leader admitted it was “pretty unlikely” a deal could be struck between her party and Labour, she said she “wouldn’t rule anything out”.

Toto Wolff has questioned new Formula One race boss Niels Wittich’s jewellery ban by asking: “Is that a battle he needs to have?” Lewis Hamilton defied the FIA’s clampdown as he competed with piercings in both ears and a nose stud at the Australian Grand Prix – and said afterwards that he has no plans to remove them in future outings. Wittich was hired by the FIA following Michael Masi’s dismissal for breaking the rules at last season’s Abu Dhabi Grand Prix – an event which denied Hamilton a record eighth championship. “How he has run the first few races has been respectful, solid and he hasn’t put a single foot wrong,” Mercedes team principal Wolff said of Wittich in an interview with the PA news agency. “But is that [jewellery ban] a battle he needs to have at this stage? “However, if it turns out to be the biggest unfortunate misstep of a race director, I would take it a thousand times over.” On Tuesday, it will be four months since Max Verstappen beat Hamilton to the title. But Masi’s incorrect handling of the affair remains a sore topic for Wolff. The Austrian’s mind turns to the days before the most contentious finale in F1 history. He continued: “It is quite interesting because I had lunch with him [Masi] on the Wednesday before the race, and I said to him that ‘I really want to tell you, without patronising you, that you need to take criticism on board and develop from there. Lewis does it every day, but you are guy who always seems to know better’. “It wasn’t about influencing him but really giving my honest feedback that he shouldn’t block outside opinion as simply being wrong. “You hear from the drivers and how the drivers’ briefings were conducted [by Masi] and some of the guys said it was almost disrespectful how he treated some of them. “There is a promoter of one of the races in the Middle East who said he was so relieved he had gone because he got so much abuse from him. “He was just immune to any feedback and even today he has not properly reflected that he did something wrong. “He was a liability for the sport because everybody kept talking about Abu Dhabi and the race director, and the race director should not be somebody that people talk about, but someone who does the job and makes sure the race is run according to the regulations.” Hamilton, who finished fourth in Melbourne, is expected to be at Mercedes’ Brackley factory between now and the next race in Imola on April 24 as the Silver Arrows play catch-up with rivals’ Ferrari and Red Bull. Hamilton is fifth in the standings, 43 points behind runaway leader Charles Leclerc, and nine points adrift of new team-mate George Russell. The 24-year-old has finished ahead of Hamilton at two of the opening three races and is second in the standings. Hamilton and Russell appear to be bonding and went surfing together ahead of the Australian Grand Prix. Asked if he was surprised how well the two Britons are getting on, Wolff replied: “Yes because they are both so competitive whilst still being able to work together. “The effort they are putting into showing respect – from the young kid to the best ever and from Lewis in appreciating the future talent that is in George – is impressive.”

Hello and welcome to Tuesday's live coverage of Aston Villa from BirminghamLive as we keep you up to date with all the top headlines from Villa Park. Head coach Steven Gerrard will be looking ahead to the transfer window after watching his side lose 4-0 at home to Tottenham on Saturday. It was Villa's fourth successive loss and further underlined the job Gerrard faces this summer as he looks to turn Villa into European contenders. Among the early names to be linked with Villa this summer is Germany centre-back centre-back Matthias Ginter, whose contract with Borussia Monchengladbach is due to expire at the end of the season. Meanwhile, Newcastle United are reportedly among the clubs ready to rival Villa in the race to sign Philippe Coutinho permanently. Next up for Villa is a trip to Leicester City, led by Gerrard's former manager at Liverpool Brendan Rodgers. Villa could be without left-back Lucas Digne for that game - and for the rest of the season - after Frenchman suffered a collarbone injury in the closing stages of the defeat to Tottenham. Follow the day's news and views in the feed below... Key Events Ginter has already responded to Villa transfer claims Germany international Matthias Ginter is reportedly a transfer target for Aston Villa and Steven Gerrard this summer. The Borussia Monchengladbach centre-back is set to leave the Bundesliga club this summer with his contract expiring at the end of the season. He has made 26 Bundesliga appearances this season and scored one goal for Gladbach, but Adi Hütter's side have disappointed this season and sit in 11th position. And Ginter will be moving on this summer in search of a new project. Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and even cash-rich Newcastle United have been linked with an interest in the defender previously. Newcastle linked with Coutinho Philippe Coutinho is set to leave Barcelona this summer and reports claim that Aston Villa could face competition to sign him permanently. The Brazilian has been on loan at Villa since January and has impressed under former team-mate and current boss Steven Gerrard. Coutinho has made seven goal contributions in 12 games, but his influence on Villa's games has recently dried up as the club have lost their last four games. Coutinho has however regained his fitness and confidence having arrived in the Midlands from Barcelona, where he struggled to justify his enormous £142million transfer tag after leaving Liverpool in January 2018. And this summer, he is set to return to the Premier League on a permanent basis with Villa currently the frontrunners to secure his signature. 'Snobbery' - Chris Sutton makes Steven Gerrard claim in Celtic rant Chris Sutton claims Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou doesn't get the credit he deserves in England and has compared his achievements to that of Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard. The former Rangers boss left his job at Ibrox in November to take on a new challenge south of the border with Villa. He delivered Rangers their first league title in a decade, before deciding to move on after the start of the new season. Just like Gerrard did at Rangers, Celtic boss Postecoglou has overseen an impressive transformation at the Parkhead club since being appointed in the summer. His team are currently leading the SPFL by six points after a recent Old Firm victory over Giovanni van Bronckhorst's side. Aston Villa fans go wild after exciting summer transfer link emerges Aston Villa are said to be interested in a move for Germany international Matthias Ginter this summer. The Borussia Monchengladbach centre-back is set to leave the Bundesliga club this summer as his contract is due to expire at the end of the season. Ginter, 28, has been linked with a moves to Inter Milan and Bayern Munich, but now Villa have reportedly joined the race to secure his signature. Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenburg said on Twitter: "News #Ginter: Gerrard wants him! @AVFCOfficial officials have spoken to his management. But Ginter has not made a decision yet. He waits for other options." Steven Gerrard drops Aston Villa transfer hint as summer plans drawn up Aston Villa head coach Steven Gerrard insists he has "tonnes of work to do" at Bodymoor Heath amid the club's longest losing run since November, which cumulated in Dean Smith's sacking. Villa fell to a bruising 4-0 defeat to Tottenahm Hotspur at the weekend, as Antonio Conte's side won 4-0 at Villa Park. A Son Heung-min hat-trick and Dejan Kulusevski's third goal of the season condemned Gerrard to his 10th Premier League defeat since his appointment five months ago. His side impressed throughout the first half, but strikers Danny Ings and Ollie Watkins both squandered big chances to at least go into the second half on level terms. While they weren't clinical at one end, Gerrard's men were anything but unlucky at the other. Steven Gerrard 'wants' Bayern Munich target as huge Aston Villa transfer claim made Aston Villa are reportedly keen on signing Germany international Matthias Ginter this summer. Steven Gerrard is set to bolster his squad with defensive reinforcements after admitting he wants to add "support" following the 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend. That loss was the club's fourth in a row and ahead of the new campaign, Villa will be active in the transfer market. Liverpool defender Joe Gomez has been linked to a move since January, but the latest reports claim that Gerrard could target a centre-back who is set to become a free agent in the coming months. According to Sky Sport in Germany, Villa want to sign Borussia Monchengladbach defender Ginter. Steven Gerrard receives Douglas Luiz transfer demand as Aston Villa star 'under scrutiny' Former Aston Villa defender Alan Hutton thinks Steven Gerrard must "upgrade" Douglas Luiz this summer amid the reports that the Brazilian's future at the club is in doubt. Luiz is set to enter the final 12 months of his contract at Villa Park at the end of the season and could make way for a new signing, with Villa said to be interested in the likes of Kalvin Phillips and Yves Bissouma. The Mirror also claim that Luiz is one of several Villa players who are "under scrutiny" ahead of a possible summer window overhaul. Villa reportedly turned down bids for the midfielder in January, as Arsenal, Tottenahm and Newcastle United were all linked with an interest. But as Gerrard looks to build his squad ahead of an important 2022/23 campaign, Hutton thinks Luiz could leave Villa. Aston Villa have three options after Anwar El Ghazi's pointless Everton loan Anwar El Ghazi has received next to no game time at Everton after joining on loan from Aston Villa in January. The winger has made two appearances for the Toffees this season, as he came off the bench in games against Leeds United and Manchester City. Though, he has seen just two minutes of action for an Everton side scrapping to stay in the Premier League. Frank Lampard's team boosted their chances of survival by beating Manchester United at Goodison Park at the weekend, but the Blues are still perilously close to the dreaded trap door. And El Ghazi will be hoping for more involvement from now until the end of the campaign. 'Credit to Aston Villa' - Hugo Lloris praises Steven Gerrard despite bruising Tottenham defeat Hugo Lloris has praised Aston Villa's "offensive" plan to take the game to Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend. Villa's efforts, especially in the first half, were in vain as Spurs won the game 4-0 to strengthen their grip on the Champions League places. Son Heung-min's opener came in the third minute of the contest, but Gerrard's side responded well and created enough chances to go into half time with the lead. But opportunities to score were squandered by Danny Ings and Ollie Watkins before the interval. Home fans clapped their players off the pitch at half time for their positive display, though, by the end of the game defensive frailties were exposed once again. How much money Steven Gerrard can spend this summer as Aston Villa impacted by UEFA rule Aston Villa are set for what promises to be another busy transfer window this summer as the clubs looks to compete for European football next season. Steven Gerrard will be handed the funds necessary to bolster his squad and improve the quality in his ranks. Reports claim that a holding midfielder and defensive reinforcements are at the top of his wish list. Having lost four games in a row for the first time since Dean Smith was sacked as head coach in November, it comes as no surprise that Gerrard is keen to improve on his team. Villa have conceded nine goals in their last four games and shipped four in their last outing against Tottenham Hotspur. Manager outlines Archer hope Steven Gerrard has held fresh talks with Preston North End boss Ryan Lowe about Aston Villa hotshot Cameron Archer. The striker has been a revelation for the Championship club since his loan switch in January, scoring seven goals in 15 games. Villa boss Gerrard is naturally keeping a close eye on Archer, while a number of other clubs are keen on the 20-year-old. As it stands, the plan is for Archer to spend pre-season at Villa, where he will be assessed ahead of the new season. A decision will then be taken on whether to send him back out on loan or keep him around the first-team squad. The latter is most likely at present. But if Villa do decide to send Archer out again, Lowes hopes that his side club will be at the front of the queue. Best and worst Premier League refs for Villa named Some fans groan when the identity of a certain official is unveiled before a game if their side has been on the wrong end of a contentious decision in the past. Like every side, Aston Villa have been on the right and wrong side of decisions, but which officials have proved to be lucky omens? ‘Fearless’ Villa youngster Kesler-Hayden in promotion battle Aston Villa youngster Kaine Kesler-Hayden is making great strides during his loan spell at MK Dons. Having spent the first half of the season in League Two with Swindon Town, the right-sided defender linked up MK in January and could be celebrating promotion later this month. Kesler-Hayden has become a regular fixture in a Dons side which has moved into automatic promotion contention in League One. Ahead of the Easter weekend, MK are second in the table, three points ahead of third-place Rotherham United, who have two games in hand. Only the top two go up automatically. The 19-year-old was initially rotated in the right wing-back position, but an injury Peter Kioso has meant a run of games in the side. So far, he has made 11 appearances for the Dons, adding to his 21 for Swindon. Kesler-Hayden is playing under head coach Liam Manning – a former U23 coach at West Ham United – who has built a vibrant young side at Stadium MK. Gerrard on 'horrible' wait Steven Gerrard admits Aston Villa face a “horrible” wait before they return to Premier League action against Leicester City. Gerrard’s side were drubbed 4-0 at home by Tottenham on Saturday – their fourth successive Premier League defeat. It could have been very different without an inspired first half performance from Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris, before the visitors stretched away in the second half. Villa now face a long wait before their next game at Leicester on Saturday, April 23. While getting a rare Easter off to enjoy with his family, it is a pause in action Gerrard is not relishing. When Adebayor almost joined Villa Emmanuel Adebayor enjoyed a prolific and eventful career which featured spells at Arsenal, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Tottenham, among many others. And it almost included a stint at Aston Villa, who were on the brink of landing the Togo star in 2015. Tim Sherwood, who had managed Adebayor, was at the helm and thought he had clinched a huge signing. Adebayor, then 31, had gone as far as posing for pictures in a Villa shirt before a sudden change of heart, recalled Micah Richards in the latest Match of the Day Top 10 podcast. Gerrard's blunt comment on performance of Villa transfer target Aston Villa were pipped to the signing of Rodrigo Bentancur in January, with the Uruguayan opting to join Tottenham as he sealed his departure from Juventus. The midfielder has made an impressive start to life in north London and helped Spurs to their handsome 4-0 win at Villa Park on Saturday. Our colleagues at Football.London gave Bentancur a 7/10 rating and praised "another composed display" and adding "he was pulled in deep by Villa's first half attacks but he stood firm on the whole". Gerrard, who remains keen to add a midfielder to his squad ahead of next season, was asked about the 24-year-old’s contribution on Saturday. Gerrard admits to Coutinho error Steven Gerrard has admitted he may have got it wrong by rushing Philippe Coutinho back into action following the recent international break. Coutinho returned to his homeland last month for Brazil’s World Cup qualifiers against Bolivia and Chile. Having played against Bolivia in La Paz – a city known for its high altitude – on March 30, the playmaker then started at Wolves, where Villa lost 2-1, on April 2. Following a tired performance at Molineux, where he was taken off with 16 minutes left, Gerrard felt the 29-year-old was back closer to his best against Tottenham. Gerrard's 'top targets' identified Ahead of the window, Villa have reportedly identified their top two targets for the window, as Gerrard looks to address the issues amongst the squad that are plaguing his progress currently. According to The Mirror, Brighton's Yves Bissouma and Joe Gomez are the 'top targets' for Gerrard this summer, as the Liverpool legend looks set to test his former club with a pursuit of the English defender whilst also renewing his interest in Bissouma. Darren Bent singles out Villa players Former Aston Villa striker Darren Bent has said Danny Ings and Ollie Watkins will have "sleepless nights" over the chances they missed against Tottenham on Saturday evening. Both strikers missed their chances as Villa fell to a 4-0 defeat, which leaves the club 12th in the Premier League table and without a win in their last four games. Speaking on Sky Sports after the match, Bent praised Villa's first half performance and also spoke about the chances rued in the opening 45 minutes. Who is Noni Madueke - The 'showman' Aston Villa are monitoring Reports have surfaced via talkSPORT how Gerrard, 41, was on a double scouting mission last night - to watch upcoming opponents Leicester (April 23) and to check in on England under-21 international Noni Madueke, who's been within PSV's first-team since he was just 17 after leaving Tottenham in 2018 while also rejecting the opportunity to join Manchester United. "I am a bit of a showman," Madueke told Sky Sports this week, when asked to sum up his game. "I try to beat players. I am fast. I have an eye for a goal. That is how I would describe myself." More HERE. Paul Merson and Mark Lawrenson disagree on Aston Villa vs Tottenham prediction Aston Villa host an in-form Tottenham Hotspur side this Saturday and will be looking to stop the rot after Steven Gerrard's side have lost their last three games. A 2-1 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers last week followed narrow losses to West Ham and Arsenal which came before the March international break. Though, Villa had won their three previous games before then, beating Brighton, Southampton and Leeds, scoring nine goals and keeping three points in that time. And ahead of their clash against Spurs, Gerrard's side have the opportunity to break back into the top ten, having dropped into the bottom half following Crystal Palace's win over Arsenal on Monday. And Mark Lawrenson and ex-Villa midfielder Paul Merson have predicted the outcome of this weekend's clash. What PSV powerhouse proved to Steven Gerrard Villa boss Gerrard would have been impressed with PSV defensive midfielder Ibrahim Sangare last night. The 6ft 2in Ivorian is enjoying a really standout campaign in the Eredivisie, clocking up several man-of-the-match accolades while, last night, Sangare performed strongly up against Youri Tielemans, James Maddison and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall. Sangare, 24, posted a near-immaculate 88 per cent for his pass completion and won an impressive 63 per cent of his duels up against those in Leicester blue. He also chalked up 12 ball recoveries, including five in the opposition half. Nobody made more interceptions, either. More HERE. Steven Gerrard could turn to unproven Aston Villa tactic vs Tottenham Aston Villa are in a rut and need to get back to basics this weekend against an in-form Tottenham Hotspur side. Antonio Conte's men are looking to strengthen their grip on the Premier League's top four positions on Saturday and will fancy their chances when they travel to Villa Park. Steven Gerrard's side, on the contrary, are out of form having lost their last three games. Defeats to West Ham and Arsenal came before a disappointing display from Villa at Molineux after the March international break. The 2-1 loss to Wolves saw Villa slip into the bottom half of the division as results elsewhere punished them for a drab display. 'Can't call him that!' - John McGinn warns Matty Cash after Frank Lampard response John McGinn was quick to correct Matty Cash's slip of the tongue when he was talking about his boyhood football heroes. The Aston Villa duo are good mates and they joined talkSPORT for a quick-fire Q and A style game ahead of the Premier League clash against Tottenahm Hotspur this weekend. On the pitch, Villa have struggled for form in recent weeks having lost their last three games against West Ham, Arsenal and Wolves. But this weekend provides a good opportunity for Steven Gerrard's men to get back to winning ways in front of a sell-out Villa Park crowd. And the squad are in high spirits with Bodymoor Heath lively as ever. Man Utd lock horns with Aston Villa as £250m triple transfer plan revealed Aston Villa midfielder John McGinn is reportedly a target for Manchester United this summer. The Scot has been named by The Telegraph as one midfielder who United are considering making a move for at the end of the season. The report adds that Leeds' Kalvin Phillips and West Ham's Declan Rice top their transfer list and claims that Erik ten Hag - who is reportedly set to be apportioned the new manager - will get a 'war chest' to use in the transfer market this summer. And the Daily Mail adds that if either one of those deals to recruit England internationals Rice or Phillips fail to materialise then McGinn is another option for the Red Devils. Though, Villa will put up a stern defence to retain their vice-captain. Tottenham XI vs Aston Villa predicted as Antonio Conte handed double injury boost Aston Villa host an in-form Tottenham Hotspur side looking to strengthen their grip on the Champions League places this weekend. Antonio Conte's men will travel up to the Midlands in search of their fourth Premier League win in a row. For Villa, they will be looking to stop the rot having lost their three last games against West Ham, Arsenal and Wolves. The 2-1 defeat at Molineux last time out was a particularly worrying result for Steven Gerrard, whose side struggled to get out of second gear in the West Midlands derby. This weekend, in front of a baying Villa Park crowd, Spurs will face a tricky task to take all three points from Villa, but Conte's team are in fine form. Aston Villa tipped to beat Man Utd to Kalvin Phillips transfer after Leeds United contract update Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips is being linked with a big-money transfer this summer. The likes of Aston Villa, Manchester United, Newcastle and West Ham are all said to be interested in the England international. But to stave off that interest, Leeds are offering Phillips the opportunity to sign a new contract. Though, The Telegraph have reported that those negations have 'stalled', with the midfielder's future at Elland Road currently uncertain. And former Villa defender Alan Hutton thinks Phillips will snub a new contract amid strong interest from across the Premier League. Darwin Nunez releases statement after Aston Villa transfer 'contact' Aston Villa have been linked with a shock move for Benfica attacker Darwin Nunez. Nunez is one of the most in-form forwards on the continent with 21 goals in 23 league appearances in Portugal so far this season. He has also netted five times in the Champions League to help Benfica reach the quarter-final stage of this year's competition. And 90min.com reports that Villa have been 'in contact' with the representatives of Nunez about a potential move. The Uruguayan has also been linked to a whole host of Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Manchester United Newcastle, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham. Aston Villa expected to seal Steven Gerrard's first summer transfer Aston Villa are the frontrunners to secure Philippe Coutinho's signature on a permanent basis this summer, despite reports claiming that Arsenal are set to make a bid to sign him at the end of the season. The Brazilian is currently on loan at Villa from Barcelona and is set to finally leave the Nou Camp four-and-a-half years after joining the Catalan giants for £142million from Liverpool. He has been in fine form under Steven Gerrard since January, having made seven goal contributions in his first 11 games. And Villa have a £33million option to buy the Brazil international when his loan moves ends. Head coach Gerrard has already revealed his desire to get the deal over the line, but admits it will not be a "straightforward" transfer to complete. Villa send scouts to watch two players Victor Nelsson and Attila Szalai have both been linked with moves to Villa. It has been reported that scouts have been sent to watch them in action on Sunday.

At least it's better than a ticket! Bad parkers share photos of the VERY passive aggressive notes left on their cars - from a Grumpy Cat cartoon to a threat to Vaseline the wipers - Social media users have shared their funny note left for bad parkers - Hilarious images of the creative methods have been shared by Unpasted - One motorist printed a map of how and where his neighbour should be parking - Another drew a picture of a 'cat' to deliver the threat of towing a persons car Bad parking is enough to make your blood boil. So it's easy to see why these people chose to handle the situation by leaving hilarious passive aggressive notes for the offending drivers in the hope they will learn their lesson. Social media users from around the world shared the very best examples in this gallery put together by trivia website Unpasted. One motorist printed a map of how and where his neighbour should be parking with detailed instructions, just to ensure there was no misunderstanding. Another drew a picture of a 'grumpy cat' to deliver the threat of towing another vehicle. Meanwhile, another took the simple approach of writing 'please park better' on a motorist's snow-covered windshield. Feline generous! This person in the US drew a picture of a 'grumpy cat' to deliver the threat of towing another person's vehicle after it was parked in the wrong spot Straight to the point! At least this person didn't have to use a pen and paper with this pretty blank canvas Take the bus! This person got a whole pile of business cards printed to deliver the message so it must be an issue they encounter regularly Welcome to the neighborhood! One American homeowner printed a map of how and where his neighbour should be parking with detailed instructions Kill them with kindness! 'Mr Important', who lives in the US, has no consideration for his neighbours and how they might need to park outside the property Ticket prank! There's nothing worse than walking outside and seeing a parking ticket on your windshield so this person was probably very relieved This pooch is having a great day! This driver in the US thought ahead and let everyone know his puppy was safe inside the locked car Don't anger the potato clan! This person got very creative with their funny note and even used some potatoes carved into figurines Passive aggressive level 100%! This person didn't hold back and used their artistic skills to take aim at the bad parking Well that escalated quickly! This person, believed to be in the US, has a very thought out plan for the punishment this bad parker will face if they are a repeat offender Appealing to a sense of humanity: It's hard to not to feel bad for this man, thought to be from the US, whose parking sticker hasn't arrived on time Ouch! This person from the US decided to spray paint the message for a more permanent outcome Want to Play a Game? Hopefully the reference to the horror flick Saw wasn't lost of the traffic warden Be careful or you might be Taken! This person has made Liam Neeson proud with this note - and hopefully the neighbour saw the funny side too Good Samaritan: This American driver was outraged when he saw a man back into a car and then walk away, and did all he could to help out

A look at what's happening around the majors today: ___ REMARKABLE ROOKIE Guardians newcomer Steven Kwan has quickly become the biggest story in baseball after a sensational start in a season-opening series at Kansas City. The 24-year-old rookie is the first player in major league history to reach base at least three times in each of his first four games. Kwan hit a bases-loaded triple and walked twice Monday in a 10-7 win over the Royals. Kwan, who made his debut opening day, is 9 for 13 at the plate and has reached base in 15 of 19 plate appearances. That's the most times any player has safely reached in his first four games since 1901. “Pretty cool,” Kwan said in his typical understated manner. “Pretty surreal.” Kwan was Cleveland's fifth-round draft pick in 2018. He's a contact hitter — he's swung 26 times so far this season and gotten a piece of the ball every time, according to Statcast. Kwan had the lowest swing-and-miss rate in the minors last year among players with at least 300 plate appearances at 2.6%. Cleveland opens a series at Cincinnati, with Tyler Mahle starting for the Reds. He won on opening day, holding the World Series champion Braves to no earned runs in five innings at Atlanta. Shane Bieber pitches for the Guardians. In his first start, he allowed one earned run in 4 2/3 innings at Kansas City. SEEING DOUBLE Giants reliever Tyler Rogers and his twin brother, Padres reliever Taylor Rogers, spent a few minutes chatting with big grins behind the batting cage Monday afternoon as their teams prepared for a three-game series in San Francisco. Later, they headed to home plate and exchanged the lineup cards for their managers before posing for photos with the umpire crew. What fun for these two now playing in the same division on rival clubs. “Probably if you put them in the same uniform you couldn’t tell them apart,” Padres manager Bob Melvin said. “I know it’s a special day for both of them being able to be on the field together. There’s twins and then there’s twins, and that is a difficult one to tell apart.” Both pitched in relief Monday night and played a significant role in the outcome, too. Taylor Rogers earned his third save and Tyler took the loss in San Diego's 4-2 victory over the Giants. Yu Darvish starts for the Padres on Tuesday night. In his season debut last week at Arizona, he had a no-hitter in progress but was pulled following the sixth inning after throwing 92 pitches. DOUBLE DEBUT Tampa Bay right-hander Tommy Romero and Oakland righty Adam Oller will both be making their major league debuts when they pitch against each other at Tropicana Field. It will be the 28th time since Baseball Reference data is available since 1901 that two starting pitchers are making their big league debuts in the same game. Neither the Athletics nor Rays have been involved in such a game. The most recent occurrences came in 2020 when Washington’s Wil Crowe faced Miami’s Sixto Sánchez on Aug. 22 at Nationals Park and Detroit’s Casey Mize and Dane Dunning of the White Sox met Aug. 19 in Chicago. WELCOME BACK Martin Perez spent his first seven big league seasons with the Texas Rangers. The lefty is back after three years away. Perez makes his return to the mound for the Rangers to wrap up a two-game set against Colorado, with right-hander Chad Kuhl pitching for the first time with the Rockies. Texas initially signed Perez as a 16-year-old international free agent out of Venezuela in July 2007, and he made his big league debut in 2012. After going 43-49 in 141 games over seven years with the Rangers, Perez went to Minnesota in free agency for the 2019 season and then pitched for Boston the past two years. Kuhl signed as a free agent last month after pitching in 100 games (84 starts) for Pittsburgh in his first five big league seasons. He was 5-7 with a 4.82 ERA in 28 games (14 starts) for the Pirates last year. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports Credit: Nhat V. Meyer Credit: Nhat V.

A forlorn letter from a 9-year-old girl to her recently deceased mother in Ukraine’s Borodianka paints a gloomy picture of the ravages of the war. As Russian troops leave behind a trail of destruction and despair in several cities of the former Soviet republic, the horrors of the violence are endless. The most unfortunate casualties being children who lost their families in crosshairs. "Mom! You're the best mom in the whole world. I'll never forget you. I wish you'll get in Heaven and be happy there. I'll do my best to be a good person and get in Heaven too. See you in Heaven! Galia xx," reads a part of the letter Galia, 9, wrote to her dead mother. The letter was shared by Anton Gerashchenko, adviser to the minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine on Twitter. The two-page letter was scribbled on a diary in Ukrainian. Twitter was beyond saddened to see the perils of the war that has left a little girl without her mother. The girl writes in her letter that she will see her mother in heaven. “Please save this child, have great will power to do good, without mother it is very difficult to do. She is not hopeless after losing her mother, the world of a child. It should not be limited with tweet, just do whatever you can do for her education and all. Best of luck beta,” one user tweeted. “For every child mother is everything, I’m feeling her pain right now, how difficult she might have felt when she lost her mother. There were so many children like her who faced the situation. Why do countries fight? Can’t they live peacefully and let others live too,” tweeted another. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Borodianka, a town 40-km from capital Kyiv, was "significantly more dreadful" than in nearby Bucha, where civilian bodies were found strewn across the streets and in mass graves. "It's significantly more dreadful there. Even more victims from the Russian occupiers," Zelensky said. Russia has denied the Ukrainian allegations about “war crimes” and executions in Bucha, saying footage and photographs showing dead bodies in the town were "yet another provocation" by Kyiv.

Shoppers thrilled after Aldi announces a new feature customers have been demanding for YEARS - Aldi's shopping basket trial appeared to go well - they will now be in all stores - The baskets were in select stores from July and proved very popular - Customers revealed they have gone to the store to 'experience' the baskets Aldi shoppers have been left pleasantly surprised by the retailer's decision to rollout shopping baskets across all their Australian stores. The German-owned retailer posted to Facebook on Tuesday to reveal the decision which many customers believe has been 'a long time coming'. 'Goodbye octopus arms,' they wrote in the post. 'We’re rolling out baskets across all our stores, to help you with your weekly shop and dash in top-ups.' Aldi shoppers are thrilled to hear the supermarket chain will bring shopping baskets to all its stores in 2022 The baskets, which were first trialed in select stores in July, will be available nation-wide in 2022 - according to a spokesperson for the German-owned store. Customers said the announcement was 'about time'. While others demanded the retailer make changes to their trolleys. 'Very glad you now have shopping baskets but looking forward to the day you have smaller trolleys like the other supermarkets,' one shopper said. This sentiment was echoed by dozens of other shoppers. 'I agree with most comments. Smaller trolleys please and could you please slow down the process at the checkouts. People who have arthritis like me find it hard to sometimes to keep up with person on the checkout.' This is the first time the retailer has confirmed all stores will have shopping baskets available. Late last year they began a rollout at a few hundred stores across the country - sparking intense enthusiasm among loyal customers and enticing others into the store. 'I grabbed one today just for the experience, I only needed sticky tape,' one woman said - thrilled by the news. Others opted to use a basket in place of a trolley - because of the novelty of it being available in the store. 'I was so excited to use one today, then put so much in it that it was almost too heavy to carry,' one woman laughed in a post about the popular baskets. But not everyone was impressed. 'So much for Aldi saying they would never have bells and whistles to save on costs,' one woman complained. 'Now they have self-service checkouts, baskets and advertise on television despite saying they never would because they wanted to keep prices low.' Others said baskets are a waste of time because 'everyone has reusable bags'. Aldi Australia have revealed plans to include shopping baskets - as standard - in every store 'If you remember your bags every time you don't need a basket, just saying,' one woman said. Some laughed and said the baskets would only be useful until they hit the infamous centre aisle - where the special buys are located. 'Looks good but how am I supposed to fit my milk, bread, a few vegetables and a trampoline in that,' one laughed. 'Special Buys sales won’t fit in there - what about my extra Chrissy tree or that greenhouse I didn’t need? Or maybe a new TV?' questioned another. This isn't the first time the idea of the retailer launching shopping baskets has set customers into a frenzy. When the trial was announced earlier this year shoppers went wild. Many appeared pleased they no longer have to worry about dropping items on the ground while holding them. Last year, customers criticised Aldi for selling $10 shopping baskets as part of its Special Buys range, arguing they should supply them for free like every other grocer (pictured) 'At last, how can a supermarket operate without providing baskets? Makes it so much easier,' one wrote, while another said: 'About time... I only go in for a few things but sometimes I could use a basket.' However, many shoppers pointed out: 'Don't get your hopes up people' because they will 'all be stolen by customers within a few weeks'. 'We used to have them at our local Aldi and then they stopped. I asked why and they said it was costing them nearly $1,000 a month in stolen baskets. So fingers crossed they stay,' one customer claimed. But some shoppers said it was impossible to steal them because employees working at checkout ensure they don't leave the store. 'It was taken from me at the checkout so you can't take them to your car,' one said.

It’s been three years since Chardon’s Christian Hall has seen a normal baseball season. After his sophomore season was canceled due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Hall was excited to return to the diamond for his junior year. However, Hall suffered a hip injury in the 2020 Division III football state championship game. He missed part of baseball season. When he returned, he didn’t perform up to his expectations. “We were all at the state title game when he got injured,” said coach Brian Long. “It was in the fourth quarter and it didn’t look good. We knew that he was going to be our third baseman and his baseball skills, especially on defense, are really impressive. So when he went down we thought that we had lost a guy.” While he returned by midseason, Hall finished last season with a .197 batting average and 12 RBI. His performance on the mound was also affected, as he posted a 4.44 ERA. While it took time to work his way back to form in the batter’s box and on mound, Hall continued to perform well at third base, and that reminded him that he would bounce back in the other areas of his game. It’s been almost three seasons since Christian Hall has had a normal season of baseball, but the @ChardonBaseball senior has started the season hot and is happy to be back at 100% #NHBaseball pic.twitter.com/Sd83kuZeI6 — Ben Hercik (@BHercikNH) April 9, 2022 “It was definitely a lot more stressful,” said Hall. “It was hard on me because I knew that I wasn’t playing to my full potential, and it made me upset. But I understood that there was nothing that I could really do about it and just wait for it to heal.” Hall has started his senior season strong at the plate. He is batting .600 with an on-base percentage of .706. A large contributor of that comes from being hit by pitches, as Hall has already been hit six times. “We preach having quality at-bats every time you step up to the plate,” said Long. “We put a lot into finding ways to get on base and if it’s being hit by pitches, drawing a walk or a well-hit ball, we know that can lead to good things in a game. Christian is seeing the ball really well and it’s nice to see a player like him be able to relax and play some ball.” On the mound this season, Hall is 2-0 with 14 strikeouts and a 0.00 ERA. He has been instrumental in the Hilltoppers’ 4-1 start. Long and the Chardon coaching staff had Hall not pitch most of last season because of the injury, only working him into the rotation when needed. Long said the limited appearances in 2021 helped Hall heal his injured hip and has been a reason for his early season success in 2022. “We worked him into the rotation slowly last season,” said Long. “There were some rough starts but a lot of that came from us not giving him the support that he needed in the field or at the plate. We had a good staff last season where he didn’t need to pitch as much. But when he was called on, he was able to throw strikes with his off-speed stuff and that was able to help us win games.” Chardon was one of a handful of teams that traveled to South Carolina to start their seasons. The trip allowed for Hall to shake off his funk from last season and start his senior campaign on the right foot. The early games also allowed for Chardon to develop as a team and find the right group of infielders to complement Hall at third. While the younger fielders gained experience, the pitching staff brought back a lot of experience, Hall included. “You can tell team-wise that we’re a lot more of a team than we have been in the past couple of seasons,” said Hall. “We went to Myrtle Beach and got to get a few games under our belt before and during the start of the season. We were able to jell and come together as a team.” With a team that has aspirations of surpassing last season’s district runner-up finish, Hall knows that he and his teammates will be playing high-pressure games. Hall is confident in himself and his team to succeed in those situations. “I like the pressure and it helps me play better,” said Hall. “I don’t see any differently than when nobody is watching me play. I know that I can control what I can control and just focus on that part of my game.”

Plans submitted to convert Northampton care home into HiMO for 'new way of co-living' including cinema and gym The applicants said communal living is ‘increasingly’ popular after the pandemic A 28-person care home in Northampton could become a “sui generis HiMO” for 25 people as plans have been submitted to convert the building. Glenside Residential Care Home in Weedon Road has been identified as a suitable site for a “luxury” co-living HiMO development by applicant Archways Real Estate and LG Properties. The building’s conversion is being billed as “a new way of co-living”. With a target audience aimed at “professionals, namely work placement students, key workers of the hospital or individuals between relationships”, the new lodgings will promote a co-living model that the company says is becoming more popular, post-pandemic, for individuals due to the “social aspect and flexible lifestyle”. According to the planning document: “Strong interior design is used to foster micro communities within the household and tenants benefit from the convenience of one all-inclusive bill that includes rent, utilities and luxuries such as Netflix subscription and WiFi. “The Glenside property has been designed with luxury shared communal rooms. "Due to the size of the property tenants can enjoy amazing shared facilities including a cinema room that tenants can book out should friends wish to join them, an on-site gym overlooking the beautiful grounds as well as a share co-working hot desk environment. "The layout has been designed to provide communal space to the front part of the villa allowing tenements a broad range of amenity space should they wish to not be restricted to their bedroom areas. "There are no proposed external alterations.” The application site consists of a detached residential care home on the north side of Weedon Road as it leads out of Northampton town centre. “Defined” by large dwellings fronting onto Weedon Road on the north side, and smaller semi-detached properties on the south, the company said that the area has “a real mixture on designs on offer, from Victorian villas to post-war dwellings and bungalows”. The site will reportedly include cycle storage. The application will now go before West Northamptonshire Council and a decision will be made. Residents have until April 29 to comment. This can be done on the council’s website.

Germany states: "New era" Olaf Scholz called for accelerating the accession of the Western Balkans to the European Union, which has been blocked for years, referring to a "new era". Source: TanjugOlaf Scholz called for accelerating the accession of the Western Balkans to the European Union, which has been blocked for years, mentioning a "new era" in light of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. At a joint press conference with Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz promised to help advance the issue. "My impression is that we are living in a new era and that it has something to do with Russian aggression in Ukraine," the German chancellor said. According to him, the need to find common positions within the EU has increased, and that is why it is "the right time to move forward" with the process of joining the Western Balkans. European Union leaders reiterated "their commitment to the enlargement process" at a summit in Slovenia in October, sparking further disappointment among six candidates for European membership (Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Kosovo), all hoping that the EU will stick to the promised agenda. Faced with such a status quo, Russia and China have been setting up pawns in the strategic region for years, especially by sending millions of doses of the vaccine to help it fight the coronavirus pandemic. While Albania, North Macedonia and Montenegro are members of NATO, Moscow maintains deep ties with Orthodox countries such as Serbia. Moscow's influence in Serbia is still ubiquitous, and Russia is a key partner of the Serbian economy in the field of energy, France Press concludes.

Self-driving car pulled over by San Francisco police, but there was nobody inside A video posted on social media reveals San Francisco police pulling over a self-driving vehicle, only to find nobody inside. Key points: - The driverless vehicle belonged to San Francisco-based company, Cruise - Police stopped the vehicle for driving without headlights - Cruise responded to the video, saying the vehicle operated as expected In the video, the hatchback is stopped by police in the city's Richmond District, and the vehicle belongs to an autonomous car company, Cruise, which is based in the Bay Area. The video starts off with what appears to be a typical police pull-over, as the vehicle had been seen driving without its headlights on. An officer gets out of a police car that is parked close behind and approaches the Cruise car, finding it empty. A bystander can be heard saying, "Ain't nobody in it — this is crazy." The car then proceeds to drive to the other side of the intersection, only to stop again and activate its hazard lights. Police then approach the car a second time. The video, which was originally posted on Instagram, has since circulated widely on social media. A Twitter user, Seth Weintraub, posted the video with a "Welcome to the future" comment. In a direct response to Weintraub's tweet, Cruise's corporate Twitter account said the vehicle had operated as expected, by driving to a safer location on the other side of the intersection. Cruise also said they "work closely with the San Francisco Police Department on how to interact with our vehicles, including a dedicated phone number for them to call in situations like this". As Australia inches closer to endorsing driverless vehicles with on-road trials, the Cruise video has resurfaced questions of vehicle safety and testing. Meanwhile, other driverless car companies — including Elon Musk's Tesla and Aurora Innovation — are developing their own autonomous vehicle technology.

Tommy Robinson summonsed to face contempt of court proceedings Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was due to appear at the Royal Courts of Justice last month in connection with unpaid legal bills. Tommy Robinson has been summonsed to court to face contempt proceedings after he failed to attend the High Court for questioning over his finances. Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was due to appear at the Royal Courts of Justice in London last month in connection with unpaid legal bills after he lost a libel case brought against him by a Syrian teenager last year. But after the 39-year-old did not appear for the expected questioning, a High Court judge has now issued a summons ordering Robinson to attend a hearing on May 6. In an order dated last Friday, Mr Justice Nicklin said Robinson’s non-attendance on March 22 was referred to him as a potential contempt of court. The judge wrote that he considered “a prima facie case of contempt of court is made out” and was therefore issuing the summons. His order warns that if Robinson fails to attend the hearing in May to face the contempt allegation, a warrant for his arrest could be issued. The English Defence League founder was successfully sued by Jamal Hijazi after the then 15-year-old was assaulted at Almondbury Community School in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, in October 2018. Shortly after a video of the incident went viral, Robinson claimed in two Facebook videos that Mr Hijazi was “not innocent and he violently attacks young English girls in his school”, claims a High Court judge later found to be false. After a pre-trial hearing for the libel case in November 2020, Robinson was ordered to pay more than £43,000 in legal costs. He declared bankruptcy about four months later, which the court heard has since been discharged. In February, Mr Hijazi’s lawyers successfully applied for an order requiring Robinson to return to the Royal Courts of Justice to answer questions about his finances. Ian Helme, for Mr Hijazi, previously told the court there was information “that what is stated in his bankruptcy application is not a full account of (Robinson’s) assets”. After Robinson failed to appear in March, Mr Helme said lawyers had “tried various methods to bring this to Mr Lennon’s attention” including sending documents by post to multiple addresses – including one in Tenerife and his ex-wife’s home – and to different phone numbers via WhatsApp. Judge John Dagnall found that Robinson knew “perfectly well” that he was due to attend court on Tuesday, adding that Robinson had emailed the court asking for the hearing to be adjourned. Judge Dagnall said that “all I can do” is to refer Robinson’s non-attendance to a High Court judge. However, the judge added that any committal for contempt of court could be suspended. Robinson was previously jailed after being found in contempt of court after he filmed men accused of the sexual exploitation of young girls and live-streamed the footage on Facebook, in breach of a reporting ban, outside Leeds Crown Court in May 2018. He was sentenced to 13 months after being found in contempt of court on the day of the broadcast. He served two months in jail before being freed after that finding of contempt was overturned by the Court of Appeal in August 2018. But the case was then referred back to the Attorney General and he was jailed again in July 2019.

NORTHRIDGE, Calif., April 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- On March 22, 2022, a retired Pastor and Elder of the AME Church filed a class-action lawsuit challenging the management of and debilitating financial losses in the Church-sponsored pension plan, called the African Methodist Episcopal Church Ministerial Retirement Annuity Plan. The case alleges that the Church and other defendants breached their duties under federal and state law, resulting in losses of over $90 million and the unlawful freezing of pension benefits earned by clergy and other Church employees. Because of the Church's and other defendants' imprudent, extraordinarily risky investments in a now-defunct capital venture firm, a promissory note to an Illinois installer of solar panels, and a purchase of undeveloped land in Florida, Defendants have unlawfully reduced the pension benefits of clergy and other employees by 70% and have prevented most retirees from receiving any of their retirement savings. The Plan also requires the Church to enroll all Bishops, General Officers, College Presidents, Deans of Theological Seminaries, and Itinerant Elders, and fund their retirements through Church-paid contributions of 12% of each plan participant's annual salary. The lawsuit claims that the Church failed to live up to these promises. The lawsuit seeks, among other things, an order for the Church and other defendants to (1) enroll and make contributions of 12% of salary to all eligible clergy and other employees, (2) restore the pension benefits at the level listed on the statements provided to plan participants in 2021, and (3) promptly pay retired participants all of the pension benefits owed to them. If you are a Plan participant in the African Methodist Episcopal Church Ministerial Retirement Annuity Plan or believe you may meet the criteria for benefits under the Plan, you may be affected by this lawsuit. If you are interested in learning more about this lawsuit, please contact Amy Harrison of Kantor & Kantor LLP at aharrison@kantorlaw.net or (818) 350-6031.

- IDEG opens segregated portfolio company vehicle in the British Virgin Islands - Announces new thematic fund product shelf, called T-I-M-E-S, with public debut of IDEG Ethereum Trust to qualifying investors - Appoints Coinbase Prime a strategic partner ROAD TOWN, British Virgin Islands, April 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- IDEG Asset Management Limited (IDEG), a professional digital asset manager, announced today that it has debuted its T-I-M-E-S product shelf of thematic digital asset funds with strategic support from Coinbase Prime. IDEG has added the Ethereum Enhanced Portfolio to its T-I-M-E-S product offering, following the successful launch of its Asia Bitcoin Trust and Atlas Mining Trust in 2019. The Ethereum Enhanced Portfolio is an actively managed investment vehicle tracking the performance of Ethereum, combined with an arbitrage strategy capturing spot and futures basis to enhance investor returns while reducing the often-volatile delta exposure of the asset. The strategy aims to outperform Ethereum. The T-I-M-E-S suite of products offers qualifying investors a professionally managed and third party custodied, exposure to digital assets, managed through IDEG's rigorous compliance, risk and internal controls processes, offering a mix of thematic strategies with varying risk profiles that spans Trust, Interest, Mining, Yield Earning, and Structured solutions. IDEG is planning to launch additional thematic funds under the T-I-M-E-S umbrella in 2022, with actively manage multi-coin, decentralized finance (DeFi) yield farming, and GameFi/Metaverse play-to-earn (P2E) strategies being piloted in-house. "Institutional investors find it difficult to include DeFi "on-chain" strategies into their asset allocation despite the potential positive returns beyond buy and hold strategies. IDEG's portfolio of managed fund products offer excellent alternative solutions to gain varied crypto exposure," said Emma Hu, Product Partner of IDEG. "The Ethereum Enhanced Portfolio is our first of such products, providing qualifying investors an opportunity to capitalize on Ethereum, the most renowned smart-contract platform, while enhancing risk-adjusted returns compared to holding Ethereum." Chief Compliance Officer and COO, Suen Son Poon added, "Investor protection is paramount to us. With ambitious product development in our future, the SPC route provides us significant operational flexibility and shows our commitment to investor protections. We have enjoyed a positive relationship with Coinbase as both an early investor by our group's venture arm, Fundamental Labs, and as institutional client of Coinbase, with the inception of our first Trusts as early as 2019. As we expand, the need for a reputable, compliance-focused partner to meet our unique trading needs and to safeguard our assets, and by extension safeguard the investments of our clients, led us back to Coinbase as our preferred prime broker and custodian." "We are thrilled to be expanding our relationship with IDEG and supporting their development of innovative crypto investment products. We are committed to providing best-in-class service to help achieve shared success, attract more professional and institutional investors into the space and to see further growth in the market," said Kayvon Pirestani, Head of Coinbase Institutional Sales, APAC. Hu added, "It's time for institutional investors to include digital assets in their asset allocation strategies. Traditional large investors need to understand that there are trusted and professional managers that can take away much of the complexity and anxiety that comes from self-trading through volatile markets. " PwC Legal and Advisory advised on the structuring of IDEG's BVI SPC, while Ascent is the Ethereum Enhanced Portfolio fund administrator. More about IDEG and T-I-M-E-S IDEG is a digital asset-only asset management group of companies.

The Eagles find themselves in an envious position ahead of the 2022 NFL Draft — one they have already used to leverage further draft capital in upcoming drafts. Philadelphia, despite making the NFL playoffs in 2021, has two selections in the first round of this year's draft: Nos. 15 and 18 overall. That provides general manager Howie Roseman with considerable flexibility in improving this team moving forward — whether at receiver, linebacker or edge rusher, among other areas of need. The Eagles came into both of their current draft picks by way of trade: Philadelphia traded its first- and fifth-round selections in 2021 (sixth and 156th overall, respectively) to Miami in exchange for first- and fourth-round selections (12th and 123rd overall) and a 2022 first-round selection. That resulted in the Eagles' 15th overall pick this year. MORE: What blockbuster NFL Draft trade with Saints means for Philadelphia's future The No. 18 pick was the result of another blockbuster trade with the Saints, which saw the Eagles part ways with the Nos. 16, 19 and 194 picks in 2022 in return for the Nos. 18, 101 and 237 picks in 2022. It also includes 2023 first-round and 2024 second-round picks. The question now: How will the Eagles use their picks in 2022? Only time will tell. Until then, The Sporting News breaks down five of the likeliest scenarios ahead of this year's draft: Combination 1 - No. 15: Devin Lloyd, LB, Utah - No. 18: Drake London, WR, USC Considering the abundance of first-round-caliber receivers, the Eagles elect first to address their defense with a potential linchpin at linebacker. Devin Lloyd has been described as a do-it-all player who can not only fit right in the middle of Philadelphia's defense, but also play multiple positions. The Eagles could use an explosive, aggressive and multi-talented defender to address multiple deficiencies from 2021. The Eagles likely needn't worry about losing a preferred receiver between their two picks, considering the Saints (No. 16) will likely use their pick on a quarterback and the Chargers (No. 17) don't have a glaring need at the position. It's unlikely the Eagles have access to Garrett Wilson, and so go with USC's Drake London instead. The 6-5, 209-pound receiver is a physical, big-bodied threat who specializes in high-pointing the ball and making contested catches — the perfect complement to DeVonta Smith. 2022 MOCK DRAFT WITH TRADES: Saints, Steelers go up for QBs; Lions, Giants stay busy Combination 2 - No. 15: Jermaine Johnson II, EDGE, Florida State - No. 18: Chris Olave, WR, Ohio State Philadelphia has already re-signed Josh Sweat and added free-agent pickup Haason Reddick to bolster a pass rush that produced the NFL's second-worst sack rate last season. But the Eagles have a choice to make if Jermaine Johnson II of Florida State somehow falls to them at 15. The Georgia transfer (go figure) is an explosive, athletic and long-bodied defender at 6-5, 254 pounds who not only registered 18 tackles for loss and 12 sacks in 2021 but has the physicality to be an edge setter in this defense. Philadelphia's second pick should once again be a receiver, not only to complement Smith, but also to provide second-year starter Jalen Hurts another weapon. Even if Wilson and London are off the board, adding Chris Olave to a receiving corps that includes Quez Watkins, Zach Pascal and Jalen Reagor would satisfy that need. He's a smooth receiver with burst and high top-end speed who can add an element of vertical receiving threat to the offense. MORE: Updated big board of top 150 players, rankings by position Combination 3 - No. 15: Trent McDuffie, CB, Washington - No. 18: Jameson Williams, WR, Alabama The Eagles have a need for a No. 2 cornerback opposite Darius Slay. As of now, Tay Gowan, Kary Vincent Jr. and Zech McPhearson seem to be vying for that position. But Washington's Trent McDuffie could challenge for that role in a defense that tied for the worst completion percentage allowed in 2021. His average size (5-11, 193 pounds) belies an aggressive, athletic play style that works as well in man-to-man as it does in zone coverages. The Eagles then look to another former Alabama receiver to shore up their receiving corps. Jameson Williams tore his ACL in the national championship game, but should be ready to contribute by season's end; regardless, the speedy receiver proved himself an explosive playmaker in his one season at Alabama, leading the nation in 12 touchdowns of 20 yards or more. His ability to take the top off defenses, coupled with Smith's route-running, could make for one of the top receiving duos in the NFC East. Combination 4 - No. 15: Nakobe Dean, LB, Georgia - No. 18: Jordan Davis, DT, Georgia Again, the Eagles elect to pick up an upgrade at linebacker who might not be available at 18. That starts first with Nakobe Dean, listed at 5-11, 230 pounds. He's an explosive off-ball linebacker who despite logging only seven sacks in 2021 was one of college football's top pass-rushers. The speed is evident in this sideline-to-sideline defender, who can also shore up the Eagles' pass rush from last year. Philadelphia then opts to draft Dean's college teammate, Jordan Davis. Though the Eagles produced a top-10 rush defense in 2021, Davis is simply too big a prospect (literally and figuratively) to pass up. If he's available, he could fulfill a long-term need in replacing Fletcher Cox, who signed a one-year deal with Philadelphia in the offseason. The 6-6, 341-pound Davis produced a legendary combine workout and could be among the top run-stoppers of this class. He may need to work on his stamina to be more than a two-down defender. 2022 MOCK DRAFT: Complete 7-round edition Combination 5 - No. 15: Devin Lloyd, LB, Utah - No. 18: Kenyon Green, G, Texas A&M In this scenario, the Eagles once again take Lloyd to shore up their linebacker corps. Unlike previous scenarios that address needs at receiver or on defense, the Eagles draft Kenyon Green of Texas A&M up front. The 6-4, 323-pound guard figures to be a plug-and-play guy on the interior. The Eagles, despite boasting one of the NFL's best offensive lines in 2021, could use a player of his caliber now that Brandon Brooks has retired and Jack Driscoll suffered a season-ending high ankle sprain last season. This move might not make as much as sense, however, considering it would be a (quality) depth addition when there are more pressing needs at receiver and defense.

Manet masterpiece given 'MISOGYNY' alert over 'male gaze': London's Courtauld Gallery puts 'woke' warning beneath 1882 piece A Bar at the Folies-Bergère... due to barmaid's 'unsettling' expression about man shown in mirror - The London gallery reviewed its labelling as part of a £57million refurbishment - Édouard Manet's 1882 work A Bar at the Folies-Bergère was reappraised - Work depicts a barmaid staring at the viewer and a male customer seen in mirror - New information panel says subject's expression is 'unsettling, especially as she appears to be interacting with a male customer' The Courtauld Gallery has been criticised for introducing a 'woke' new label on a Manet masterpiece that warns viewers of the 'unsettling' presence of a man. The London gallery, which holds the UK's most prestigious collection of Impressionist paintings, reviewed its labelling as part of a £57million refurbishment. Édouard Manet's 1882 work A Bar at the Folies-Bergère is one of the paintings that has received a new label. The work depicts a barmaid at the famous Parisian cabaret club staring at the viewer and a male customer who can be seen in a mirrored image behind her. The new information panel both in the gallery and online states that the female subject's 'enigmatic expression is unsettling, especially as she appears to be interacting with a male customer'. Speaking to The Telegraph, art historian Ruth Millington branded the interpretation a 'woke attempt to call out misogyny' which 'unwittingly centres the male gaze' by shifting the viewer's attention to the man. Another painting that bears a new label is Paul Gauguin's 1897 work Nevermore. The updated panel says that the painting depicts 'one of several teenagers that he took on as 'wives''. It then adds that 'the widespread racist fantasy of Tahitian girls as sexually precocious led to their unabashed exploitation.' The Courtauld Gallery has been criticised for introducing a 'woke' new label on the Manet masterpiece A Bar at the Folies-Bergère. It warns viewers of the 'unsettling' presence of a man Completed a year before he died, 1882 work Folies-Bergère was Manet's last major painting. Above: The artist in 1875 Completed a year before he died, Folies-Bergère was Manet's last major painting. Whilst the background shows a fashionable mingling crowd, a trapeze artist is seen top left in green boots. In front of the barmaid are a series of alcoholic drinks. Most of the scene is a reflection in the large gold-framed mirror that hangs behind the barmaid, whose model was a real woman called Suzon who worked at the Folies-Bergère. The venue was known to be popular for prostitutes plying their trade and historians have previously suggested that the painting hints at the exploited barmaid's availability to male customers. The painting's new label adds that the barmaid 'appears as just another item in the enticing array on offer in the foreground: wine, champagne, peppermint liqueur and British Bass beer, with its iconic red triangle logo.' The new information panel both in the gallery and online states that the female subject's 'enigmatic expression is unsettling, especially as she appears to be interacting with a male customer' The London gallery, which holds the UK's most prestigious collection of Impressionist paintings, reviewed its labelling as part of a £57million refurbishment Ms Millington, who has written a book focusing on the female inspirations in art, said: 'In a painting of multiple gazes, it's unfair and misogynistic to emphasise the male perspective. 'I'd rather read a fresh new label which invites viewers to imagine what the woman is thinking.' The new interpretation of French painter Gaugin's work Nevermore criticises the artist for 'taking advantage of his position as a European coloniser'. Another painting that bears a new label is Paul Gauguin's 1897 work Nevermore. The updated panel says that the painting depicts 'one of several teenagers that he took on as 'wives'' It then adds that 'the widespread racist fantasy of Tahitian girls as sexually precocious led to their unabashed exploitation' The Post-Impressionist artist had a home on the island of Tahiti, which is still an overseas territory of France. The gallery's re-labelling follows the reassessment of other well-known artists at major galleries. The Tate Britain's exhibition on Hogarth was criticised after curators highlighted the 'sexual violence, anti-Semitism and racism' in the painter's works. And staff at the National Gallery carried out a three-year audit which linked hundreds of its famous paintings to slavery. The Courtauld has been contacted for comment.

Russell Marsh jailed for estranged wife Jade Marsh's murder - Published A man who murdered his estranged wife a week after she left him has been jailed for at least 25 years. Jade Marsh, also know as Jade Ward, was stabbed and strangled by Russell Marsh in Shotton, Flintshire, in August 2021. Their four children slept throughout the attack and her body was found under a pile of clothes in a bedroom. Marsh admitted manslaughter but was convicted of murder at Mold Crown Court and was given a life sentence with a minimum term of 25 years. Marsh, 29, was jealous and controlling, would phone Ms Marsh constantly and would insult her in front of others, the court heard. Marsh claimed he had gone to Ms Marsh's house hours before her death, but said she had picked up a knife, cutting and injuring herself. Ms Marsh, 27, had been repeatedly stabbed and slashed to the face and body before being strangled. She died of asphyxiation. The attack happened after Marsh "fabricated" an excuse to leave his night job early on 26 August, and drove to the house in Chevrons Road, Shotton, where he attacked her - one week after she ended their relationship. Her body was found on the bed, covered with a pile of clothes and a blanket. The bedroom door had been secured with a dressing gown cord. Marsh drove their children to his parents' house in nearby Saughall, Cheshire, and handed himself into police later that day, telling officers he had done "something bad" to his wife.

Discussions about a water project for southwest Lawton and the first phase of an upgrade planned for Lee Boulevard will top the agenda when the City Council meets today. The session will begin at 2 p.m. in the auditorium of Lawton City Hall, Southwest 9th and C. The proposal to hire T&G Construction Inc., Lawton, will mark the first phase of a long-range project to upgrade south Lawton's primary arterial between Goodyear Boulevard on the west and Interstate 44 on the east. T&G Construction bid $2,855,300 for that West Lee Boulevard work: mill and overlay of 1.95 miles between Southwest 67th and Southwest 97th streets. The project will include cold milling (grinding off the top layer of asphalt), asphalt resurfacing, striping and erecting signage. The majority of the cost ($3.154 million) is associated with road construction, with another $121,948 in costs for traffic striping and removing and resetting signs. City officials were pleased with the bid because it is less than the $4.43 million engineering estimate. The project is part of a five-phase project outlined by consulting engineering firm EST, which recently presented its recommendations for the upgrades needed for the arterial and Goodyear Boulevard in the west Lawton industrial park. Goodyear Boulevard upgrades are Phase II; other phases are focused on Lee Boulevard: Southwest 67th to Southwest 38th streets; Southwest 38th Street to South Sheridan Road; and South Sheridan Road to just west of Interstate 44. Council members also will be looking at two options for bringing city water to a 480-acre area south of Bishop Road and west of Southwest 67th Street, annexed into the city limits in 1982. The area now is served by a 6-inch water main that is sufficient to provide potable water to residents in the the sparsely populated area, but not large enough to provide the required fire flow (meaning, water pressure sufficient to fight fires). At their Jan. 25 meeting, council members directed city staff to fill in the details of several proposals that could provide water to the area. The council will discuss two options today: • Install a 12-inch waterline from Bishop Road to Coombs Road, parallel to Southwest 67th Street. This $844,000 option would provide fire flow only to properties within 300 feet of Southwest 67th Street. The deadline end line also would have to be flushed of 66,000 gallons of water a week (to ensure water remains compliant with treatment standards) a $240 weekly water loss. • Install waterlines in three phases, at a total cost of $3.56 million, plus right of way. Phase I, at $1.42 million, would place 12-inch, 8-inch and 6-inch mains adjacent to Southwest 67th Street, with water loss of 77,000 per week for flushing; all property owners would have to build within 300 feet of the mains to receive water. Phase II, at $730,000, would loop Phase I lines back to Bishop Road and the 12-inch main there, by installing 12-inch and 8-inch lines; water loss is reduced to 56,000 gallons ($224). Phase III, at $1.16 million, would extend the 12-inch main to Coombs Road and west one-half mile, then loop back via an 8-inch main to Phase I lines; reduces flushing to 10,000 gallons ($40). In other business, the council will discuss a proposal from city administrators to upgrade a drainage channel on the west side of North Sheridan Road, extending south of the Goodwill Store to Sheridan Square Apartments and Numu Creek. The existing box culvert and channel is insufficient to meet needs. City staff said the drainage channel is "largely unimproved" and located on private property, with no public easement to allow city maintenance. The channel is overgrown with vegetation, littered with trash and debris and clogged with sediment, creating what administrators said would be a considerable amount of work to clear. To maintain that improved condition, the city would have to install a liner or channel, with costs ranging from $200,000 to $500,000. For the city to do the work, property owners would have to provide public drainage easements, city administrators said. Otherwise, those private owners would have to alleviate the problem.

- Home - Pakistan - News - Govt employees, pensioners welcome PM's announcement of increasing salaries, pension, minimum wages Govt Employees, Pensioners Welcome PM's Announcement Of Increasing Salaries, Pension, Minimum Wages Mohammad Ali (@ChaudhryMAli88) Published April 12, 2022 | 01:45 PM The Government employees and pensioners here Tuesday welcomed announcement of the Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif regarding 10 percent increase in their salaries and pension PESHAWAR, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 12th Apr, 2022 ) :The Government employees and pensioners here Tuesday welcomed announcement of the Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif regarding 10 percent increase in their salaries and pension. The labourers, farmers and general public also appreciated the newly elected Prime Minister for increasing minimum wages to record Rs 25,000 which was unprecedented in the country's history. Information Officer (Retd), Misal Khan while talking to APP said Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif has won hearts and minds of hundreds of thousands of pensioners after announcing 10 percent increase in pension of government employees and termed it a landmark decision. He said it would provide significant relief to price-hike stricken families of pensioners in the wake of price-hike and inflation. He expressed the hope that PTI Government in KP would reciprocate the same decision as announced by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for welfare of labourers, Federal Government employees and pensioners. Professor Dr Muhammad Naeem of the Economics Department University of Swabi also welcomed increase in the salaries of Government employees and termed it a gift of newly elected Prime Minister for hundreds of thousands of Government employees. He said political stability was imperative for economic growth and development and inclusive fiscal and monetary policies were must for progress and prosperity of Pakistan. Labourer Muhammad Sadiq, a resident of Nowshera said the newly elected premier deserved appreciation for increasing minimum wages of labourers to Rs 25,000 that would benefit hundreds of thousands of labourers in the country including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Awami National Party leader and former Provincial Minister Wajid Ali Khan while congratulating the newly elected Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said under his leadership, the country would march on road to progress and development. Owing to ill economic policies of the PTI Government, he said the value of Dollars against rupees has been significantly increased while a record price-hike and inflation was witnessed in the last three and half years, affecting the common man. He said ANP had supported joint opposition for strengthening of democratic system and constitutional rule in Pakistan. ANP leader expressed the hope that PTI leaders would revisit their decision regarding resignation from parliament and would support the Government in every positive and peoples' welfare move.

Washington, Being exposed to one respiratory virus can help human bodies resist other competing pathogens, revealed scientists, explaining why a potential ' twindemic' of Covid and flu was stopped in its tracks. Strict measures such as masks, social distancing, among others, imposed to control the spread of Covid largely prevented flu outbreaks while the Coronavirus reigned, and to resurge as it receded. But it was not alone. In a study published in the Journal of Experimental Medicine, scientists found the reason to be a biological phenomenon, called viral interference. This means that exposure to one respiratory virus may put the body's immune defences on high alert, blocking other pathogens from gaining entry into the airways, the report said. Using a model of human airway tissue, the team showed that rhinovirus infection stimulates interferons -- first nonspecific defenders in the human body -- that can then fend off the coronavirus. "My gut feeling, and my feeling based on our recent research, is that viral interference is real," Ellen Foxman, an immunologist at the Yale School of Medicine, was quoted as saying. "I don't think we're going to see the flu and the Coronavirus peak at the same time," Foxman said. In a separate study, researchers from the University of Sheffield, explored the viral interference phenomenon in children. Because it would be unethical to deliberately infect children with the flu, they gave children in Gambia a vaccine with a weakened strain of the virus, the report said. They found that children who already had high levels of interferon ended up with much less flu virus in their bodies than those with lower levels of interferon. The findings suggested that previous viral infections primed the children's immune systems to fight the flu virus -- a potential reason why children, who tend to have more respiratory infections than adults, seem less likely to become infected with Covid. The theory can also be applied in adults. Recent studies have shown that co-infections of flu and Coronavirus are rare, and those with an active influenza infection were nearly 60 per cent less likely to test positive for Coronavirus, the report said.

What do we know about“stealth omicron”so far? It’s an extra-contagious version of the omicron variant, but it doesn’t seem to cause more severe disease. Since it was first identified in November, BA.2 has been spreading around the globe, driving new surges in parts of Asia and Europe. It’s now the dominant coronavirus version in the U.S.and more than five dozen other countries. It was given the “stealth” nickname because it looks like the earlier delta variant on certain PCR tests, says Kristen Coleman at the University of Maryland School of Public Health. The original omicron, by contrast, is easy to differentiate from delta because of a genetic quirk. In rare cases, early research indicates BA.2 can infect people even if they’ve already had an omicron infection. COVID-19 vaccines appear just as effective against both kinds of omicron, offering strong protection against severe illness and death. Health officials also are tracking other variants including XE — a combination of BA.2 and BA.1, the original omicron — that was first identified in January in the United Kingdom. The World Health Organization is keeping tabs on XE but has not yet deemed it a variant of concern or interest. ___ The AP is answering your questions about the coronavirus in this series. Submit them at: FactCheck@AP.org. Read more here: How has the COVID-19 pandemic changed after two years? Why are COVID vaccination rates still low in some countries? Can you get long COVID after an infection with omicron?

Dubai’s DEWA utility goes public after raising $6B in IPO By AYA BATRAWY Associated Press DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Dubai’s Water and Electricity Authority, known as DEWA, has begun trading for the first time, after raising just over $6 billion during its initial public offering. This makes it the second largest offering ever in the Middle East. It marks an inflection point for Dubai at a time when high oil prices are buoying the economies of energy-producing Gulf Arab states. The government-owned utility opened trading on Dubai’s stock exchange with a market cap of $33.7 billion. Tuesday’s listing comes as DEWA, which is the exclusive electricity and water utility provider of Dubai, positions itself as central to the wider United Arab Emirates’ energy transition to net zero by 2050.

(The Hill) – Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the resulting sanctions imposed on Moscow are contributing to surging global prices that Americans are feeling throughout the economy, particularly at the grocery store and the gas pump. Russia’s status as a major exporter of raw materials, especially oil and natural gas, along with Ukraine’s position as a key agricultural supplier to regions including Africa and the Middle East, make the conflict between the two countries a flashpoint for commodity prices, which were already on the rise due to the pandemic. “These countries export a lot of raw materials,” William Reinsch, a former undersecretary of Commerce who now serves as international business analyst at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said in an interview. “They tend to have a world price. And so when supply is constricted, the consequence for Americans is that the price goes up because it goes up everywhere.” New consumer price index (CPI) data to be released Tuesday by the Labor Department is likely to show another sharp jump in both monthly and annual inflation. Consumer prices rose by 7.9 percent in the year ending in February, and signs of high inflation in March are mounting. On Friday, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations recorded a 12.6 percent increase in its benchmark food price index from February to March, an uptick it described as a “giant leap.” The March numbers represent all-time highs for cereal grains, vegetable oils and meats, while the sugar and dairy sectors also saw major gains. The FAO cereal price index in particular saw a 17.1 percent increase from February to March, marking its highest level since 1990. The increase was “largely driven by conflict-related export disruptions from Ukraine and, to a lesser extent, the Russian Federation,” according to an FAO assessment. The global numbers are consistent with the situation in the United States, where food prices spiked 7.9 percent in February compared to the previous year, the largest 12-month increase since July 1981, according to consumer data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The February food-at-home index, which looks at prices relating to domestic food preparation, was up nearly 9 percent in the same period, while wholesale prices for goods jumped 2.4 percent in February, the largest advance since data was first calculated in 2009. The war in Ukraine also accelerated a steady rise in oil prices driven largely by the recovery from the pandemic. Fuel oil prices rose 6.7 percent and gas prices rose 6.6 percent in February alone, according to the CPI as crude oil prices rose toward $100 per barrel. The price of a barrel of West Texas Intermediate crude peaked near $130 on March 8 before falling to roughly $94 on Monday, but gasoline prices have not fallen nearly as fast. A gallon of regular unleaded gas costs roughly $4.10, according to the AAA national average, down just 20 cents from a month ago. While inflation-adjusted gas prices are still below the peaks seen in the wake of the Great Recession, higher energy costs can hit consumers harder than inflation in other sectors. Higher gas prices are not only difficult to avoid for drivers but can also increase transportation costs for store-bought goods. Beyond the cumulative effects of rising commodity prices, which can ripple through the economy and become magnified as they work their way up global production pipelines, Russia does produce certain goods that U.S. companies, and by extension the nation’s consumers, use directly. “Palladium, vanadium and titanium are three such goods,” said Reinsch. Palladium is a component in catalytic converters, which convert toxic gasses produced by internal combustion engines into less toxic pollutants. Vanadium is added to steel to make it stronger, and titanium has numerous applications including aircraft shells. “There are others who produce these products,” Reinsch said. “But again, it’s supply chain interruptions, and we have to scramble around to find them from other places.” Blame game As more Americans feel the sting of inflation, the upswing in prices has emerged as a major campaign issue ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, with Republicans and Democrats taking turns placing blame for the upward trend in costs. Republicans have blamed rising inflation on Democratic-backed policies, including the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan that President Biden signed into law in March 2021, about a year after former President Trump signed a bipartisan $2 trillion coronavirus relief package. A number of Democrats have, in turn, placed blame on corporations and market concentration, accusing larger companies of taking advantage of economic conditions to increase costs. By contrast, experts have pointed to a combination of factors that have contributed to the higher price stickers. “Part of it is supply chain disruptions because of the pandemic. We can’t get the goods that we got before, for instance, like computer chips, and so on,” Desmond Lachman, a senior fellow for the American Enterprise Institute, told The Hill. “But it was also the case that budget policy was too loose, and monetary policy was too loose. So we had all three things pushing in the same direction,” he said. Ben Page, senior fellow at the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, also told The Hill that stimulative fiscal policy contributed to inflation but added he wouldn’t call it the “root cause for most of the inflation.” “I think the way that you can see that it’s not purely driven by U.S. policy is that it’s not just a U.S. phenomenon,” Page said. “The increased inflation is something that we’ve seen across the world, or certainly across the developed world.” In recent weeks, countries such as China, Egypt and France have seen rising inflation rates, a trend experts said is exacerbated by the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. Sanctions impact The U.S. has joined allies in unleashing a spate of sanctions on Russia in response to its invasion of Ukraine. Rachel Ziemba, adjunct senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security, told The Hill many of the sanctions have been aimed at raising costs for Russia and restricting how its government accesses the global financial system. “So, limiting their bank’s ability to the government’s ability to use global banks,” Ziemba continued. “And the sanctions program was set up in a way that tried to use the areas of asymmetry that would hurt Russia more than it would hurt the U.S. and Europe.”Russia installs new general as it prepares next moveEnergy & Environment — How Russian sanctions could hasten energy switch On the flip side, Ziemba said some of the impacts the U.S. has seen as a result of the sanctions have been “sort of indirect,” while Russia has faced more payment challenges. “The other issue, of course, the Biden administration is trying to do what they can to alleviate some of these costs. The challenges are we’re in a tight market … and I do think one of the challenges is going to be that a number of the producers of particularly oil and gas don’t make decisions quickly to change their production,” Ziemba said. “I think that’s where the debates with sort of countries like Saudi Arabia and the UAE [United Arab Emirates] have been reluctant to deviate from their go-slow additional supply policy have been disappointing to the administration,” she added.

VIENNA (AP) — Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer said Monday that he urged Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the invasion of Ukraine and raised the issue of “serious war crimes” committed by the Russian military. Nehammer was the first European leader to meet Putin in Moscow since Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine Feb. 24. In a statement released after the meeting, the Austrian chancellor said his primary message to Putin in the “very direct, open and tough” talks was that “this war needs to end, because in war both sides can only lose.” Nehammer told Putin all those responsible for war crimes in the Ukrainian city of Bucha and elsewherewould be “held to account.” He also stressed the need to open humanitarian corridors so that civilians trapped in cities under attack can access basic supplies like food and water, according to his statement. The Austrian leader called the Moscow trip to Moscow his “duty” to exhaust every possibility for ending the violence in Ukraine, coming just two days after travelling to Kyiv for talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Speaking at a news conference in Moscow, Nehammer said face-to-face talks to look “each other in the eye, discussing the horrors of war,” could have a greater impact over the long term. But he said he walked away from the meeting without much optimism for an end to the war any time soon. “It might be necessary to do it 100 times,” Nehammer said of the meeting. “But I think it’s necessary to do it, so that peace reigns again and the people of Ukraine can live safely.” European Union-member Austria supported the 27-nation bloc’s sanctions against Russia, though it so far has opposed cutting off deliveries of Russian gas. The country is militarily neutral and is not a member of NATO. But Nehammer and other Austrian officials have been keen to stress that military neutrality does not mean moral neutrality. “We are militarily neutral, but have a clear position on the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine,” Nehammer wrote on Twitter Sunday when announcing his trip to Moscow. “It must stop!” Nehammer said he told Putin the EU is “as united as it’s ever been” on the issue of sanctions, and that these will remain in place – and may even be strengthened – as long as Ukrainians continue to die. Earlier Monday, Austrian foreign minister Alexander Schallenberg said Nehammer decided to make the Moscow trip after meeting with Zelenskyy in Kyiv and following contacts with the leaders of Turkey, Germany and the European Union. Schallenberg said ahead of a meeting with his EU counterparts in Luxembourg that it was an effort to “seize every chance to end the humanitarian hell” in Ukraine. He added that “every voice that makes clear to President Putin what reality looks like outside the walls of Kremlin is not a wasted voice.”

LONDON (AP) — A jury deliberated for just 18 minutes Monday before finding a fervent Islamic State supporter guilty of stabbing lawmaker David Amess to death a slaying that shocked the nation and sparked calls for increased police protection for politicians. Ali Harbi Ali, 26, was found guilty by London’s Central Criminal Court of murder and preparing terrorist acts. Ali stabbed the veteran British lawmaker to death last year while he was meeting with voters at a church hall in eastern England. Ali, who had spent years researching and planning potential attacks on lawmakers, had defended his actions by saying Amess deserved to die as a result of voting for airstrikes on Syria in 2014 and 2015. Ali, a London man with Somali heritage, had denied charges of murder and preparing acts of terrorism. Opening the trial, prosecutor Tom Little said the case was “nothing less than an assassination” carried out because of a “warped and twisted and violent ideology.” “It was a murder carried out by that young man who for many years had been planning just such an attack and who was, and is, a committed, fanatical, radicalized Islamist terrorist,” he said. Little said Ali bought the knife used to attack Amess five years earlier, and that Ali tricked his way into meeting Amess by pretending to be one of his constituents. Amess, 69, had been a member of Parliament since 1983. He was pronounced dead at the scene after the stabbing. The prosecutor also said that Ali had researched and planned attacks on lawmakers and the Parliament building from at least 2019. The research included reconnaissance trips targeting work and home addresses of two other lawmakers, Mike Freer and Cabinet member Michael Gove, he added. The slaying of Amess shook the nation, as lawmakers often meet directly with the public. It came five years after Labour Party lawmaker Jo Cox was shot and stabbed to death by a far-right extremist.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — An area at the U.S. government’s nuclear waste repository in southeastern New Mexico was evacuated over the weekend after workers handling a shipping container discovered a small amount of radioactive liquid inside it. There was no indication of airborne contamination and testing of workers’ hands and feet turned up no contamination after the discovery was made late Saturday in a bay where containers are processed before being taken underground for disposal, officials said in a statement issued late Saturday. “The event at the site has been secured. There is no risk of radiological release and there is no risk to the public or the environment,” plant officials said in the statement. Officials confirmed Monday that the shipment was packed and sent from Idaho National Laboratory, but investigators were trying to determine the source of the liquid found inside the container, said Bobby St. John, a spokesperson for the contractor that manages the repository for the federal government. The waste containers were securely placed back into the special shipping container, St. John said. “We have written processes and protocols in place for this type of situation and all protocols were followed,” he said in an email to The Associated Press. “Additionally, the (contact-handled waste) bay is designed to contain radiological contaminants in order to protect the workforce, surrounding ecology and the local community.” The repository is the backbone of a multibillion-dollar cleanup program that involves tons of Cold War-era waste from federal labs and defense-related sites around the country. The waste — remnants of decades of nuclear research and bomb making — typically consists of lab coats, gloves, tools and debris contaminated with plutonium and other radioactive elements. Independent federal investigators last month raised concerns about whether cost overruns and missed construction deadlines will continue at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant. A multimillion-dollar project is underway at the underground facility to install a new ventilation system so that full operations can resume, following a radiation leak in 2014 that forced the repository’s closure for nearly three years and led to major policy overhauls. The container that caused that release had been inappropriately packed at Los Alamos National Laboratory in northern New Mexico. Operations had to be reduced after the waste plant reopened in 2017 because areas of the facility were contaminated and airflow needed for mining and disposal operations was limited. It was unclear Monday whether operations had resumed in the area where shipments are processed. St. John said only that the shipping container with the radioactive liquid was placed in a “safe configuration, pending results of the investigation and resulting mitigation actions.” The repository was carved out of an ancient salt formation about a half-mile (0.8 kilometer) below the ground because officials say that the shifting salt will eventually entomb the radioactive waste. Its current footprint includes eight sections, which the U.S. Energy Department estimates will be filled in 2025. State regulators are weighing a permit change that some critics have said could lead to expanded repository operations. A decision is expected later this year.

Which space heater is best? Even the dead of summer can be too cold if your office blasts the air conditioner. That’s where a space heater can come in handy. Some space heaters can also double as fans if you get too hot. The best space heater is the Dr. Infrared Heater Portable Space Heater with Humidifier. It gets decently hot and the humidifier prevents health issues caused by dry heat. What to know before you buy a space heater Outdoor vs. indoor space heaters Space heaters are usually designed with a location in mind, be it outdoors or indoors, though some can be used in either situation. - Outdoor heaters tend to be on the smaller side, contrary to what you would expect. They are usually designed to be as portable as possible and focus on heating the area directly in front of them or the air in the immediate vicinity. - Indoor heaters are more varied. They can be ultra-portable, big enough to require installation or somewhere in between. Most heat the air in front of or around them like outdoor heaters, but a few are able to heat nearby objects directly instead. Power source Both indoor and outdoor heaters can be powered by electricity or fossil fuels. - Electric heaters require a nearby outlet, making the majority of them designed for use indoors. Some are still designed for outdoor use, including those meant for use on your patio. They are safer thanks to their lack of emissions. - Fossil-fueled heaters typically run on propane, kerosene or natural gas. They are typically used outdoors as using them indoors can be dangerous without access to proper ventilation since their burning fuel emits dangerous vapors. Some are still designed for use indoors, again with proper ventilation, in case of emergency power loss. What to look for in a quality space heater Heat output Space heaters denote their heating ability using either wattage or British thermal units. Bigger equals hotter, but also requires more energy. Fuel type also affects heat output. Electric heaters tend to heat quickly but won’t last if switched off. Fossil-fueled heaters are the opposite, heating up slowly but providing lasting heat once switched off. Energy efficiency Space heaters of any kind are one of the most energy-efficient heat sources you can use. They heat up rapidly and maintain heat well. Any heaters with some kind of help moving air, such as those with built-in fans, are even more efficient. However, this efficiency drops off the longer you use them as their fuel consumption rates eventually outpace their heat generation. How much you can expect to spend on a space heater Space heaters usually cost roughly $30-$150. The $30-$50 budget models still output plenty of heat for one person while the $75-$150 models can heat up small- to medium-sized rooms. Space heater FAQ What are the benefits of using a space heater? A. Their biggest benefit is the ability to quickly heat a room to your preferred temperature with less energy consumption than your central heating would require. This then allows you to switch to your central heating with a minimal increase in your energy bill while continuing to use the space heater on lower settings to maintain your comfort. Space heaters are also quieter than most central heating units, and they can be moved from room to room as needed. What are the downsides of using a space heater? A. The biggest downside is their maximum efficacy is typically limited to small-to-medium homes. Larger spaces simply can’t be comfortably heated as most space heaters only effectively heat the areas in their immediate vicinity. Trying to use one in a large space, or using one as your central source of heating rather than a heating supplement, is energy inefficient and can noticeably raise your energy bill. Their exteriors can also become dangerously hot, even if used for a short amount of time. This makes them difficult to safely use in homes with pets and young children.

Which Tom Ford lipstick is best? Tom Ford has earned a stellar reputation as a luxury fashion brand, but its beauty products have become just as popular as its ready-to-wear, made-to-measure, shoe and accessory offerings. In particular, Tom Ford lipsticks are a favorite among beauty influencers for their comfortable feel, long wear times and striking packaging. Tom Ford lipsticks are available in multiple formulas, so there’s an option to suit most preferences. The brand also offers several finishes and a wide color range, providing options for nearly any look. If you’re looking for a luxurious lipstick with a luminous finish and rich color, Tom Ford Lip Color Lipstick is the brand’s best-selling option. What to know before you buy a Tom Ford lipstick Formula Tom Ford lipsticks are available in two main formulas: traditional bullet and liquid. Tom Ford bullet lipsticks are a classic lipstick formula in an easy-to-use twist-up tube. They feature a solid piece of cream lipstick molded into a bullet with a slanted tip that perfectly fits your lips’ shape. These Tom Ford lipsticks are available in various colors and finishes and are easy for even makeup beginners to apply. They’re also much easier to remove than liquid formulas, but they usually don’t wear as long. Tom Ford liquid lipsticks have a thin consistency that dries on the lips after applying them, so they last all day. They come in a tube and have a doe-foot applicator in the cap to apply them. Most Tom Ford liquid lipsticks offer a matte finish, so they’re fairly drying on the lips. However, they can last for hours without needing a touch-up, even when eating and drinking. Finish Tom Ford lipsticks come in a wide array of finishes, so you can find the perfect option for your look. The most common Tom Ford lipstick finish options include: - Matte: Matte lipsticks have a completely flat finish, so there’s no shine at all. They are usually intensely pigmented and offer longer wear times than other lipsticks. Matte lipsticks don’t contain many moisturizing ingredients, making them pretty drying and sometimes uncomfortable. Tom Ford lipsticks are available in several matte finishes, so some are formulated to be more comfortable to wear. - Cream: Cream lipsticks have a creamy texture and a slight sheen because they contain moisturizing ingredients. They’re extremely comfortable to wear and offer fairly full coverage. They don’t wear as long as matte lipsticks, so they require touching up throughout the day. - Satin: Satin lipsticks also have a creamy feel on the lips, but they usually aren’t as moisturizing as cream lipsticks. They have slightly more sheen on the lips as well. - Glossy: Glossy lipsticks have a high-shine finish and contain plenty of moisturizing ingredients that make them very comfortable to wear. They are pretty sheer and don’t last long on the lips. What to look for in a quality Tom Ford lipstick Ingredients Tom Ford lipsticks stand out for their high-performing formulas, which contain ingredients that improve their texture and feel. Each formula has different ingredients, but some common ingredients to look for in Tom Ford lipsticks include: - Soja seed extract: This ingredient helps nourish the lips and gives the lipstick a creamy texture. - Murumuru butter: This ingredient also helps nourish and hydrate the lips and provides a smooth, creamy texture. - Daikon radish oil: This ingredient is a natural emollient oil that hydrates the lips and offers a smooth texture. - Vitamins E and C: These antioxidants help protect the lips from free radical damage. They also help heal and soften dry, chapped lips. - Mineral powder: This natural ingredient helps provide rich pigmentation and a comfortable matte finish. In addition to containing high-quality ingredients, Tom Ford lipsticks also stand out for the potentially problematic ingredients they don’t contain. The lipsticks are paraben- and gluten-free. Shade range Depending on the Tom Ford lipstick formula you’re considering, you can choose from as many as 28 shades. All Tom Ford lipsticks come in classic shades, such as bold red, flattering nudes and wearable pinks. You can also find plenty of bright shades, including fun coral and fuchsia options, as well as deeper shades like burgundy or berry. Packaging Tom Ford lipsticks feature luxurious packaging that has a weighty feel in hand. Most lipsticks come in dark tubes with gold trim, though some special edition formulas feature white and gold packaging. A few even have fully gold packaging. How much you can expect to spend on a Tom Ford lipstick Tom Ford lipsticks cost $55-$58. Most of the brand’s standard matte, satin and cream lipsticks cost $55-$56, but you’ll pay $57-$58 for Tom Ford liquid lipsticks. Tom Ford lipstick FAQ Are Tom Ford lipsticks drying? A. Some Tom Ford lipsticks are fairly drying, but that’s because they offer a long-wearing matte finish that doesn’t contain as many hydrating ingredients. The brand also offers plenty of moisturizing lipsticks that are incredibly comfortable to wear. Unfortunately, you have to choose between wear time and comfort when buying lipstick because hydrating formulas don’t last as long on the lips. Should I use a lip liner with Tom Ford lipstick? A. It depends on the type of look you like and whether you have issues with lipstick bleeding around your lip line. Creamier, more hydrating lipsticks have a tendency to bleed more, so you may want to pair those Tom Ford formulas with a liner. Lighter nude shades can sometimes make your lips look less defined, so you may need to add a liner to help shape your lips. What’s the best Tom Ford lipstick to buy? Top Tom Ford lipstick What you need to know: Featuring the iconic Tom Ford packaging, this lipstick delivers a creamy, comfortable formula and vibrant color that looks as good as it feels. What you’ll love: It has hydrating ingredients like chamomilla flower oil and soja seed extract for a comfortable feel on the lips. It offers fade-resistant color that lasts for hours.

In an attack where unknown threat actor groups spent at least five months poking around inside the network of a regional US government agency, behavioral log data suggests that two or more such groups were active before the final group deployed a Lockbit ransomware payload earlier this year. Throughout the period attackers were active on the target’s network, they installed, then used Chrome browser to search for (and download) hacking tools on the “patient zero” computer, a server, where they made their initial access. Though the attackers deleted many Event Logs from machines they controlled, they didn’t remove them all. Sophos was able to piece together the narrative of the attack from those unmolested logs, which provide an intimate look into the actions of a not particularly sophisticated, but still successful, attacker. For instance, the logs recorded that the attackers installed various commercial remote-access tools on accessible servers and desktops. They appeared to prefer the IT management tool ScreenConnect, but later switched to AnyDesk in an attempt to evade our countermeasures. We also found download logs of various RDP scanning, exploit, and brute-force password tools, and records of successful uses of those tools, so Windows remote desktop was on the menu, too. In addition to various custom scripts and configuration files used by hacking tools the attackers installed, we found a wide variety of other malicious software, from password brute-forcers, to cryptominers, to pirated versions of commercial VPN client software. There was also evidence the attackers used freeware tools like PsExec, FileZilla, Process Explorer, or GMER to execute commands, move data from one machine to another, and kill or subvert the processes that impeded their efforts. Critically, technicians managing the target network left a protective feature disabled after they completed maintenance. As a result, some systems were left vulnerable to sabotage by attackers, who disabled endpoint protection on the servers and some desktops. With no protection in place, the attackers installed ScreenConnect to give themselves a backup method of remote access, then moved quickly to exfiltrate files from file servers on the network to cloud storage provider Mega. Over time, we found that the attackers’ tactics changed, in some cases so drastically it seemed as though an attacker with very different skills had joined the fray. The nature of the activity recovered from logs and browser history files on the compromised server gave us the impression that the threat actors who first broke in to the network weren’t experts, but novices, and that they may later have transferred control of their remote access to one or more different, more sophisticated groups who, eventually, delivered the ransomware payload. Reconstructing the attack from logs Attackers will often delete log data to obfuscate their tracks, and this incident was no exception – the attackers manually deleted nearly all log data about a month prior to investigator discovery. However, a deeper forensic dig indicates that the initial compromise occurred nearly half a year before investigators opened their case. The method of ingress was nothing spectacular – open RDP ports on a firewall that was configured to provide public access to a server. For a while, it was a relatively quiet invasion. The attackers got a lucky break when the account they used to break in over RDP was not only a local admin on the server, but also had Domain Administrator permissions, which gave it the ability to create admin-level accounts on other servers and desktops. Reconstructed through searches of browser and application history logs that remained untouched, Sophos analysts were able to build a picture of a network ill-equipped to resist this type of attack, and attackers who seemed to have done little preparation for what to do beyond gaining initial access. In the course of performing the post-attack analysis, Sophos analysts determined that the attackers used the servers they controlled inside the target’s network to perform Google searches for a variety of hacking tools. In some cases, following the search results for these tools led the attackers into a variety of shady download sites. The advertising networks whose banner ads appear on these sites appear to have generated popup ads that delivered a potentially unwanted app download as the attackers clumsily pulled together a selection of attack tools, further muddying the picture and leaving the server infected with adware, and the browser history cluttered with redirects. The forensic traces left behind seem to paint a picture of a novice attacker doing a bit of on-the-job training – attempting tool installation (after Googling the tools), opening random text files, and running a surprising number of speed tests, but not moving toward a particular goal or operating with great urgency. Surviving log data indicates the attacker would leave the server unbothered for days at a time, unexpectedly (and counterintuitively) during American holiday periods. When they were on the system, the attacker seemed to rely on a lot of the shady variety of public file-sharing services, whose advertisements mimic file download links or buttons in an attempt to entice visitors to click their ad instead of the real download button on the page – an ad that typically redirects the visitor into a rotating pool of sites pushing junkware. Some of the evidence shows the attacker either inadvertently clicked one of these fake-download-button ads, or suffered from popup or popunder advertisements that pushed unwanted downloads at the attacker, who then installed the adware, perhaps thinking it was the real pirated copy of a hack tool they thought they were downloading. These unintentional self-infections created additional noise in the logs. Unlike many threat actors who pre-configure attack scripts that, for instance, scan networks to determine a target list and then run those scripts to deliver payloads to internal machines, the attackers for months seemed content merely to poke around and occasionally create a new account on the initial, or another, machine. Some of the attacks originated from the Desktop folder of the user account the attackers initially compromised, but others involved admin-level accounts the attackers created with names like ASP.NET or SQL.NET. Pivot to a more serious attack In the fifth month of the infiltration, however, the attacker behavior dramatically changed. After a three-week hiatus, logs indicate that an attacker remotely connected and installed the password-sniffing tool Mimikatz. Sophos protections saw it happen, and cleaned a first attempt at infection. Unfortunately, the IT department didn’t heed the warning, and the attacker’s later attempt to run Mimikatz via a compromised account was successful. (The attackers also attempted to gather credentials using a different tool called LaZagne.) The credential-dumping application did its work, and within a couple of days, the attackers had a password.txt file sitting on the desktop of the admin-level accounts they’d created on the compromised server. This marks a turning point of sorts in the investigation; at this point, one must assume that any account that had logged into the troubled server was indeed compromised, credentials exposed. And something else happened: On the same day the passwords.txt file appeared, someone decided to do a bit of tidying up. The initial threat actor, or a newer threat actor, visited websites looking for instructions to uninstall a malicious coinminer that, earlier, had been installed on the beleaguered server. Scouring log data is a conventional move for an attacker, even one with less dwell time than the attacker in this case. Wiping logs eliminates useful forensic information about the intrusion. The attacker used a compromised account to clear the WitnessClientAdmin, Windows PowerShell, and System logs. By the end of the attack, no event logs prior to about five weeks before the end would be available on the system. The attacker also spotted the Sophos endpoint installation and tried (unsuccessfully) to remove those as well, using a variety of tools like GMER and IOBit Uninstaller. Via yet another compromised account, the attacker(s) installed an assortment of popular brute-force and proxy tools including NLBrute. A partial list of maliciously used tools discovered on the compromised system includes the following. It should be noted that not all of these are inherently malicious tools, nor are they all surprising to find on healthy, uninfected machine. Suddenly – over four months after the initial compromise — not only are the behaviors of the attackers suddenly crisper, more focused, but the locations of the malicious visitor(s) have expanded, with IP-address traces indicating connections from both Estonia and Iran. Ultimately the compromised network would host malicious visitors from IP addresses that geolocate to Iran, Russia, Bulgaria, Poland, Estonia, and… Canada. But these IP addresses may have been Tor exit nodes. Ironically, right around this time, the target’s IT department noticed that the systems were “acting strange” – repeatedly rebooting, possibly by the threat actor’s direct command shortly after destroying the event logs. The IT department began its own investigation and would ultimately take five dozen servers offline while they built network segmentation designed to protect known-good devices from the others. However, to cut down on distractions, the IT department disabled Sophos Tamper Protection. Things got frenetic after that. The last ten days of the infection were full of moves and countermoves made by the attackers and the IT department. On the eighth day, Sophos’ team entered the fray. Through the end of the last calendar month of the attack, a steady stream of table-setting activities took place as the attackers dumped account credentials, ran network enumeration tools, checked their RDP abilities, and created new user accounts, presumably to give themselves options in case they were interrupted in subsequent attacks. The logs were wiped multiple times and machines restarted during this period. On the first day of the sixth month of the attack, the attacker made their big move, running Advanced IP Scanner and almost immediately beginning lateral movement to multiple sensitive servers. Sophos protections knocked down several new attempts at malicious file installation, but compromised credentials allowed the attacker to outflank those protections. Within minutes, the attacker(s) had access to a slew of sensitive personnel and purchasing files, and attackers were hard at work doing another credential dump. The next day, the target engaged with Sophos. Labs analysts identified the 91.191.209.198:4444 as a phone-home address with related shellcode, now detected as ATK/Tlaboc-A and ATK/Shellcode-A. Over the course of several days, the IT team and Sophos analysts collected evidence then quickly shut down servers that provided the attackers with remote access, and worked to remove the malware from the machines that had not been encrypted. Fortunately for the target, on at least a few machines, the attackers didn’t complete their mission, as we found files that had been renamed with a ransomware-related file suffix, but that had not been encrypted. Cleanup in those cases just involved renaming the files to restore their previous file suffixes. Guidance and detection In the course of the investigation, one factor seemed to stand out: The target’s IT team made a series of strategic choices that enabled the attackers to move freely and to access internal resources without impediment. Deployment of MFA would have hindered the access by the threat actors, as would a firewall rule blocking remote access to RDP ports in the absence of a VPN connection. Responding to alerts, or even warnings about reduced performance, promptly would have prevented a number of attack stages from bearing fruit. Disabling features like tamper protection on endpoint security software seemed to be the critical lever the attackers needed to completely remove protection and complete their jobs without hindrance. The ransomware threat actors added a help wanted ad into their ransom note. Our recommendation is that insiders with access to sensitive information refrain from committing crimes by helping ransomware threat actors. The ransomware binaries deployed in this attack are detected using CryptoGuard and the various dual-purpose attack tools used in the attack are detected as follows. Not all files are routinely detected as many of these utilities have a legitimate IT administrative purpose. All other shareable IOCs relating to this attack are shown above. Sophos only shares indicators and samples which cannot be tied to a specific target to protect the target’s privacy. Acknowledgments SophosLabs would like to acknowledge the contributions of analysts Melissa Kelly, Peter Mackenzie, Ferenc László Nagy , Mauricio Valdivieso, Sergio Bestulic, Johnathan Fern, Linda Smith, and Matthew Everts for their work reconstructing the attack.

PHOTO Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy urged the European Union on Tuesday to impose sanctions on all Russian banks and Russian oil and to set a deadline for ending imports of Russian gas. "We cannot wait...We need powerful decisions, and the EU must take them now. They must sanction oil and all Russian banks...Each EU state must set terms for when they will refuse or limit (Russian) energy sources such as gas", he said. "Only then will the Russian government understand they need to seek peace, that the war is turning into a catastrophe for them," he told the Lithuanian parliament in a video address. Russian President Vladimir Putin sent his troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24 on what he calls a special military operation to demilitarise and "denazify" Ukraine. Ukraine and the West say Putin launched an unprovoked war of aggression. The EU executive is drafting proposals for a possible EU oil embargo on Russia, foreign ministers have said, although there is still no agreement to ban Russian crude. Galvanised by what Ukraine says are senseless killings of civilians by Russian troops since the start of the invasion, the bloc last week approved a fifth round of sanctions on Russia that included an end to Russian coal imports. Zelenskiy told the parliament that Russian soldiers had behaved the same everywhere they had stayed as they did in the town of Bucha. Russian forces are accused of killing many civilians there, although the Kremlin has denied this and says the incident was staged. The Ukrainian leader also said Russia had deported hundreds of thousands of people from occupied Ukrainian regions into "filtration camps". There was no comment from Moscow moment on the latest allegations but it generally denies targeting and abusing civilians in the conflict.

Edinburgh University aiming for historic first in men's hockey Edinburgh could become the first Scottish university men's club to play in the top national student hockey league if they beat Oxford Brookes in the Capital on Wednesday. Player/coach Hamish Imrie and his squad go into the Premier National play-off on a downer, however, having lost their Scottish Cup semi-final to unfanciedHillhead 3-2 after being 2-0 ahead in Glasgow on Sunday. That disappointment came 24 hours after the students clinched third place in Scotland's men's Premiership with a 6-1 victory over city rivals Watsonians at Peffermill. The 25-year-old playcaller claimed fatigue caught up with the squad on Sunday but added: "We're determined to make history." Edinburgh claimed this promotion chance after finishing top of the North League in Division Two of the competition run by British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS), winning five matches, drawing two and losing one. They missed out on being promoted to the top tier last week when they were edged by Oxford who won the South League in Division Two, but get a second chance against Oxford Brookes who finished second bottom of the top division. Imrie admitted that there is a big difference between the standard in the first and second division, but the Scottish international remains optimistic and declared: "We suffered heartbreak last week in losing on penalty strokes to Oxford. We were 2-2 at the end of regulation time, and we went down 4-1 on penalties. "However, I'm confident the boys will put that and Sunday's Scottish Cup disappointment behind them and win on this occasion. No other Scottish university men's team has ever been in the top division and we want to be there."

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The mass shooting that police say was a gun battle between rival gangs that left six dead and 12 wounded earlier this month shook the downtown core of California’s capital — and created another challenge for a city trying to redefine itself as a destination for more than just government workers. In recent years, downtown Sacramento has benefited from billions of dollars of development but has been rattled by rising crime, protests resulting in property damage and an economic drubbing caused by the pandemic. Now, the city is reeling from the aftermath of the April 3 shooting, when at least five gunmen fired 100 shots as people left bars and nightclubs. The violence just blocks from the Capitol highlights the successes and challenges many U.S. urban centers are facing as struggles with crime and homelessness persist despite revitalization efforts. Though Sacramento is home to more than 500,000 people, it’s considered sleepy by California standards. The derisive nickname “Cowtown” grew out of its agricultural roots. Today, downtown is at the center of the city’s efforts to become an entertainment and food destination. Local officials have worked to rebrand the city as “America’s Farm to Fork Capital,” a nod to a large number of well-regarded restaurants that get ingredients from the region’s many farms. A major part of the revitalization is a six-block strip of K Street anchored by a renovated convention center and the Golden 1 Center, home to the NBA’s Sacramento Kings and a regular stop for major concert tours. The shooting happened on a block that’s home to high-end nightclubs but also dotted by vacant buildings that once housed coffee shops and restaurants. Police have made two arrests connected to the shootings, but no one has been charged with homicide. The violence “came at a really pivotal moment for downtown,” said Sacramento City Councilwoman Katie Valenzuela, who represents the area. “It’s causing me to sort of reflect on where we go from here — and as a city, not just as downtown,” she said. A century ago, K Street was a bustling, diverse center of activity. But the strip struggled as people moved into the suburbs — giving way to decades of failed revival efforts, including the construction of a mall in the late 1960s and the launch of a light rail commuter line in the 1980s. A fresh wave of investment came to the area about a decade ago, with new businesses opening on K Street as part of an effort to revive downtown after the financial crisis. The Golden 1 Center’s 2016 opening sought to build on that, helping generate $6.7 billion in nearby investment and spurring the opening of 150 new businesses, according to the Downtown Sacramento Partnership business group. Then the pandemic hit, sending many of downtown’s 100,000 workers home and forcing some businesses closed. Now about 45,000 people work downtown daily, according to the partnership. As employment fell, crime rose. Aggravated assaults, burglaries and vandalism were up in 2020 and 2021 compared to the five previous years for a roughly 100-square block area that includes the Capitol and the arena, according to Sacramento police crime data. The city’s central hub has also served as the epicenter for protests focusing on racial justice and police misconduct. Protesters in 2018 shut down a downtown freeway entrance and blocked fans from entering the arena after Sacramento police shot and killed a young Black man. Then demonstrations in 2020 over the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis swept the city. Many downtown properties were vandalized and some were ransacked. “We’ve had a lot of different realities kind of hit downtown in different waves,” said Dion Dwyer, director of public space services for business partnership. Now Sacramento is among the ranks of cities recovering from recent mass shootings. Since 2017, there have been 133 mass shootings in the U.S., according to a database compiled by The Associated Press, USA Today and Northeastern University. Dayton, Ohio, in 2019 was shaken when a gunman killed nine people and wounded 17 just after midnight at a bar in the main entertainment district for the city of 140,000. Sandy Gudorf, president of the Downtown Dayton Partnership, said officials mounted an “intentional strategy to reclaim the district” after the shooting. Within three weeks of the violence, there was a free performance by Dave Chappelle, who lives outside the city. The community rallied to support local businesses, but it took time for people to feel comfortable returning to nightlife. The pandemic hit just as that activity was rebounding, Gudorf said. “In people’s minds and hearts they knew that this did not define who we are. It was an incident, it was a tragic incident where we lost lives and people were inured,” she said. “I think it just took time to process all of that.” Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg repeatedly said people should continue to feel comfortable going downtown. “It’s not one or the other” when it comes to enjoying the city’s entertainment offerings and feeling safe,” he said last week. Rachel Muro, a manager at the locally owned Capital Books several storefronts away from the shooting, said downtown has problems like any city but that people should not avoid it. The bookstore’s owners recently opened a board game cafe just around the corner. “We believe in this part of town enough to continue to help make it thrive,” Muro said. Elsewhere on the block, the area’s troubles are obvious, with many office and restaurant spaces vacant. Homelessness downtown and elsewhere in Sacramento has been a vexing problem. Last week the City Council voted to place a measure on the November ballot requiring the city build to more shelter beds and ban encampments on public land. Valenzuela, the councilwoman, opposed the plan and said it was inappropriate to debate that proposal so soon after the tragedy. Crystal Sanchez, president of the Sacramento Homeless Union, said homeless people live downtown because the area has street lighting and lots of activity and plenty of alcoves near businesses where they can shelter. “People are here because there are coves for protection,” Sanchez said. At a brewery a few blocks from the shooting site, co-workers enjoying a drink reflected on whether the shooting changed their view of the city. Braden Kolb, who was at a downtown bar for a friend’s 30th birthday the night before the shooting, said he patronizes downtown about once a month and that the shooting “is not going to change my behavior.” But his friend Jason Slieter said the incident made him wonder if Sacramento is the right place to raise his family, saying he felt a sense of heaviness downtown when coming to work after the six people were killed. “It definitely felt like something had changed,” he said. __ Associated Press journalists Adam Beam in Sacramento and Camille Fassett in Oakland contributed.

Alien space rock! Meteor that hit Earth in 2014 WAS from another star system, US Space Command confirms – pushing back the date of the first known interstellar visitor by 3 YEARS - US Space Command officials say the meteor 'was indeed an interstellar object' - A study reporting the meteor over Papua New Guinea was summitted years ago - But acknowledging the meteor's existence faced 'roadblocks from government' Experts have confirmed a meteor that hit Earth in January 2014 did come from another solar system and is therefore the first known interstellar object. In a newly-released memo, US Space Command officials have said that rocky body, measuring just 1.5 feet (0.45 of a metre) across, 'was indeed an interstellar object'. Their confirmation means the famous interstellar object known as Oumuamua, discovered in 2017, is actually the second interstellar object to visit our solar system. According to NASA, the meteor lit up skies near Manus Island, Papua New Guinea on January 8, 2014 whilst travelling at more than 100,000 miles per hour. Scientists believe it may have left interstellar debris in the South Pacific Ocean, which if recovered could reveal more about the rocky object's origin. 6/ “I had the pleasure of signing a memo with @ussfspoc’s Chief Scientist, Dr. Mozer, to confirm that a previously-detected interstellar object was indeed an interstellar object, a confirmation that assisted the broader astronomical community.” pic.twitter.com/PGlIOnCSrW — U.S. Space Command (@US_SpaceCom) April 7, 2022 According to NASA, the meteor lit up skies near Manus Island, Papua New Guinea on January 8, 2014 whilst travelling at more than 100,000 miles per hour. It may have showered the ocean with interstellar debris, according to scientists A lot of the information surrounding the object has until now been classified by the US government. The memo, dated March 1 and shared on Twitter this month, signs off findings from US Space Command chief scientist Dr Joel Mozer. Dr Mozer 'reviewed analysis of additional data available to the Department of Defense related to this finding,' reads the memo, which is signed by Lt. Gen. John E. Shaw, deputy commander of the US Space Command. 'Dr Mozer confirmed that the velocity estimate reported to NASA is sufficiently accurate to indicate an interstellar trajectory.' It was back in 2019 that Harvard University researchers posted a study on the preprint server arXiv, acknowledging the meteor's existence and saying it had come from outside our solar system. The study, which still hasn't been peer reviewed, reported the meteor as originating from interstellar space with '99.999 per cent confidence'. According to the authors, the study has been awaiting peer review for years so the claim could be confirmed, but it's faced roadblocks from the US government, which was withholding key information from a publicly-available NASA database. Amir Siraj, one of the study authors, told Vice that he wants to track down fragments from the object that may be at the bottom of the ocean. 'I get a kick out of just thinking about the fact that we have interstellar material that was delivered to Earth, and we know where it is,' he said. 'One thing that I'm going to be checking – and I'm already talking to people about – is whether it is possible to search the ocean floor off the coast of Papua New Guinea and see if we can get any fragments.' According to NASA, the meteor soared through skies near Papua New Guinea at more than 100,000 miles per hour and impacted near Manus Island on January 8, 2014 (concept image) The memo, dated March 1 and shared on Twitter this month, signs off findings from US Space Command chief scientist Dr Joel Mozer 'It would be a big undertaking, but we're going to look at it in extreme depth because the possibility of getting the first piece of interstellar material is exciting enough to check this very thoroughly and talk to all the world experts on ocean expeditions to recover meteorites.' Information about the meteor is scarce, although its details – including its coordinates above Manus Island – are logged in NASA's Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) fireball database. Siraj said he was inspired to investigate the meteor and its impact after noticing its usually high speed – over 100,000 miles per hour – compared to the other entries in the database. 'It was really fast, and so I was like "Oh my God, this could be an interstellar meteor",' Siraj told Vice. 'It was hiding in plain sight. 'It wasn't that we had to dig to find this database – it was more that there hadn't been an interstellar object until 2017. 'As a result, no one had a reason to think that there could be meteors that were from outside of the solar system.' Its high speed implies 'a possible origin from the deep interior of a planetary system or a star in the thick disk of the Milky Way galaxy', Siraj wrote in his 2019 paper. This artist's impression shows Oumuamua, discovered in 2017. Until now, it was known as the first-known interstellar object to visit our solar system A high speed is an indicator of an object that originates from outside our solar system because, if it were bound by an orbit around our sun it would be much slower. For comparison, Earth orbits the sun at around 66,000 miles per hour. Siraj's hopes his study, which was submitted The Astrophysical Journal Letters, will now soon be peer-reviewed and published. It will then assist hopefully the astronomical community and allow research into the implications of the 2014 meteor impact. The finding does of course mean that Oumuamua has been relegated to be the second interstellar object to be detected, in October 2017. Originally classified as a comet, Oumuamua was later reclassified as an asteroid as it lacked a coma – a cloud of gases that surrounds the nucleus of a comet. The third-known interstellar object to be discovered, a comet called 2I/Borisov, was discovered by Crimean amateur astronomer Gennady Borisov with a telescope in August 2019 when it passed by the sun. 2I/Borisov is one of the most 'pristine comets' ever observed, scientists announced last year, meaning it has not been altered or degraded by heat and radiation from stars like our sun.

Ehsan Jahandarpour is an experienced data-driven CMO, serial entrepreneur, and globally recognized growth hacker. Driving marketing strategies and initiatives is like going on an adventure—it's often challenging and unknown. When you plan to lead growth initiatives, you need to have the right vehicle, the right driver and enough fuel to get to your destination. Most importantly, you need to have your dashboards and navigation system fully set up so you can find your way on this journey. Design your CMO dashboard to lead with data. A CMO needs to have a single source of truth when measuring and monitoring marketing strategies. Your CMO dashboard should go above and beyond the typical digital marketing stats that advertisement platforms offer. While it's good to know your impressions and ad spend at a glance, it's essential to start with an end-to-end marketing funnel. Integrate your product marketing strategies and track the growth results per channel. A successful CMO knows the value of strategy but is also very comfortable getting their hands dirty. You have to consider high-level strategies when designing your CMO dashboard, but at the same time, you should also include all micro metrics and key performance indicators that impact your measurement. When crunching and visualizing data, you are not looking for numbers only. In fact, you should be looking for insights to figure out why you succeeded or failed in any initiative. The last thing you want is to celebrate the wins without fully understanding why the recent campaign was successful. Your CMO dashboard should help you interpret the results quickly. What metrics should CMO dashboards track? You should track different metrics at different stages of your business. I suggest starting with your funnel and looking for flaws and areas of improvement. It's best to create an end-to-end funnel covering the customer journey from awareness to renewal and referral. To easily monitor and manage your marketing and growth experiments, create three segments in your CMO dashboard to visualize your "top funnel data," "mid-funnel" and "high-intent bottom funnel" activities. How can you analyze your marketing funnel? When analyzing your top funnel data, you should connect your business insights to different live data sources such as your social media ads accounts, your SEO and organic channels. As you go deeper, pull data from other sources to optimize your strategy. Some essential factors to add here include: • Ideas submitted per month. Create a flow to receive ideas from different divisions in your organization. You should track the number and the ratio of ideas submitted by others every month—the more ideas in the funnel, the better. • Ongoing experiments. You should know the historical data and the current number of projects, campaigns and running experiments at the time of the report. This way, you know what you are focusing on and what needs to be reprioritized. • Traffic per channel. Since you are running campaigns, you need to look at paid and organic traffic. This metric shows the overall traffic generated to your digital assets. • Cost per click. This is the most common metric to be tracked in paid marketing campaigns. I suggest keeping an eye on the actual CPC and increased/decreased bid or CPC price per keyword, campaign and channel. The mid-funnel segment of your CMO dashboard should connect to the sales cycle, automation tools and customer relationship management software and compare them with top funnel data. That helps you better understand customers' engagements patterns and allows you to optimize trigger points. Focus on: • Click-through rate. It's a common stat that most conversion rate optimization experts study. You can calculate it by dividing the number of clicks by impressions. • Cost per lead. How much does it cost to generate leads? Look at it from the total marketing spend and divide it by the total number of new leads. • Cost of acquiring customers. Generally, the customer acquisition cost equals the combined cost of sales and marketing divided by the number of new customers acquired. • Conversion rate. You need to have a good baseline for measuring conversion rate, but to start, you should consider the percentage of users who have completed your desired action on a platform. • Social engagement rate. This is the number of social interactions divided by actual reach. • In-app engagement rate. This metric is very useful if you are using in-app marketing strategies. For paid ads that get traction in your app, you can look at the number of interactions with ads divided by actual reach and multiplied by 100. Finally, as you study the bottom of the funnel, you want to consider the micro-conversion data, lifetime value and lead to sales ratio, as well as look into customer referral and customer loops data from your products. Here are a few metrics to add to your dashboard: • Revenue per campaign. You need to justify why you run or stop a campaign, and the best way to do that is to monitor the revenue generated per campaign. • Lead per campaign. If you are running lead generation campaigns, especially in the B2B market, the actual number of leads captured per campaign is another factor to study. • Affinity rate. Affinity is a factor you cannot control, but your customers will appreciate it if you offer a product with a decent "aha" moment. A simple approach for tracking your brand affinity is running surveys or looking at the positive or negative reviews that customers leave on different forums. • Retention rate. You should always have a balanced ratio of customers who continue paying for each product over a given time frame. • Return on marketing investment. This is calculated by taking the amount of money you spend on a campaign, project or experiment and dividing it by the revenue generated from that initiative. It would be a big mistake to limit yourself to revenue value when analyzing your bottom funnel, especially if you want to generate recurring revenue. If you broaden your horizon and look beyond revenue, you can easily collect ideas to improve call to action and core offers and feed them to your high-tempo experiments and growth cycle.

“Good morning! Happy morning!” Rabbi Avraham Wolff exclaimed, with a big smile, as he walked into the Chabad synagogue in Odesa on a recent morning. Russian missiles had just struck an oil refinery in the Ukrainian city, turning the sky charcoal gray. Hundreds were lining up outside his synagogue hoping to receive a kilo of matzah each for their Passover dinner tables. The unleavened flatbread, imperative at the ritual meal known as a Seder, is now hard to find in war-torn Ukraine amid the war and a crippling food shortage. But the rabbi wanted no challenge to get him down — be it the lack of matzah or that he was missing his wife and children who had fled the Black Sea port for Berlin days ago. “I need to smile for my community,” Wolff said. “We need humor. We need hope.” Tens of thousands of Ukrainian Jews have fled while about 80% remain in Ukraine, according to estimates from Chabad, one of the largest Hasidic Jewish organizations in the world. Inside and outside Ukraine, a nation steeped in Jewish history and heritage, people are preparing to celebrate Passover, which begins sundown on April 15. It’s been a challenge, to say the least. The holiday marks the liberation of Jewish people from slavery in ancient Egypt, and their exodus under the leadership of Moses. The story is taking on special meaning for thousands of Jewish Ukrainian refugees who are living a dramatic story in real time. Chabad, which has deep roots and a wide network in Ukraine, and other groups such as the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) and the Jewish Federations of North America, have mobilized to help Ukrainian Jews celebrate Passover wherever they have sought refuge. In Ukraine, Chabad plans 52 public Seders welcoming about 9,000 people. In Odesa, Wolff is preparing to host two large Seders – one in early evening at the Chabad synagogue for families with young children and a later Seder at a hotel where participants can stay the night, obeying a 9 p.m. curfew. He's been waving in trucks loaded with Passover supplies – matzah from Israel, milk from France, meat from Britain. “We may not all be together, but it's going to be an unforgettable Passover,” Wolff said. “This year, we celebrate as one big Jewish family around the world.” JDC, which has evacuated more than 11,600 Jews from Ukraine, has shipped more than 2 tons of matzah, over 400 bottles of grape juice and over 700 pounds of kosher Passover food for refugees in Poland, Moldova, Hungary and Romania, said Chen Tzuk, the organization’s director of operations in Europe, Asia and Africa. In Ukraine, their social service centers and corps of volunteers are distributing nearly 16 tons of matzah to elderly Jews and families in need, she said. “Passover is something familiar and basic for Jewish people,” Tzuk said. “For refugees who have left everything behind, it's important to be able celebrate this holiday with honor and dignity.” JDC is organizing in-person Seders in countries bordering Ukraine and elsewhere in Europe, she said, and is facilitating online Seders where it’s too dangerous to gather in person. The Jewish Federations of North America has set up a volunteer hub in support of refugees fleeing Ukraine; it's a partnership with the Jewish Agency for Israel, the JDC and IsrAID. Russian-speaking volunteers, such as Alina Spaulding, will help organize a Seder for 100 refugees at a hotel in Budapest. Spaulding, a resident of Greensboro, North Carolina, fled Kharkiv, Ukraine, as a 5-year-old in the 1970s with her parents. She said the war has rekindled strong connections to Ukraine. “My mom showed me a photo of me with my grandpa on a street that was recently bombed,” Spaulding said. “We talked about the university in Kharkiv where my mom and dad went, which was also hit. Suddenly, it all felt so personal.” Spaulding believes spending Passover with refugees will be “an experience to remember." “Part of the magic of Passover is finding your own story,” she said. “We’re in the middle of a modern-day exodus. I can’t even imagine the stories I will hear.” Celebrating a holiday can give people a rush of hope and happiness even in grim situations, said Rabbi Jacob Biderman, who leads Chabad activities throughout Austria, including a center in Vienna that is sheltering about 800 Ukrainian Jews. Days after refugees reached his center, Biderman led a joyous celebration of Purim, a festival commemorating the deliverance of Jews from a planned massacre in ancient Persia. “The look on their faces changed from sorrow to joy... Their eyes lit up,” Biderman said. “It gave them a sense of normalcy, dignity and the belief that their spiritual life is something no one can take away from them.” That fueled Biderman's determination to provide a memorable Passover Seder for the refugees. Dr. Yaacov Gaissinovitch, his wife, Elizabeth, and their three children – ages 11, 8 and 4 – will be part of that celebration. They fled the Ukrainian city of Dnipro by car on Friday, March 4. Gaissinovitch, a urologist and mohel who performs the Jewish rite of circumcision, said it pained him, as an observant Jew, to drive on Shabbat – a forbidden act on the day of rest and prayer except when lives are at stake. “I drove nonstop for 12 hours to Moldova to save us all,” he said. “We sang all the Shabbat songs in the car. It was very, very hard.” In Dnipro, Gaissinovitch had his offices in the sprawling Menorah Center, which serves as a center of Jewish life, housing a synagogue, shops, restaurants, museums and the office of the city’s chief rabbi. After a month of being severed from everything familiar, the Chabad center in Vienna has been a blessing, Gaissinovitch said. “We’ve been accepted here very warmly,” he said. “After being disconnected for days, the children have been able to see that our life hasn’t stopped.” A similar community at the Chabad center in Berlin is housing about 1,000 refugees, including Rabbi Avraham Wolff’s wife and children from Odesa. The center plans to host eight Seders citywide and has distributed matzah and other food to community members. Refugees, including 120 children from an Odesa orphanage who arrived in Berlin along with Wolff’s family, distributed the items to locals, said Yehuda Teichtal, the chief rabbi of Berlin. “To me, this is extremely touching,” he said. “That people on the receiving end are able to give and not be viewed as victims. It’s empowering and energizing.” As they prepare for Passover, Teichtal, Biderman and Wolff said they have been inspired by Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, known as the Lubavitcher Rebbe, who was among the most influential global leaders in Judaism in modern times. April 5 marked the Rebbe’s 120th birth anniversary, a special number in Jewish tradition. “The Rebbe built a strong foundation (in Ukraine) so we’re able to do what we’re doing now,” Wolff said. Schneerson grew up in Ukraine during a challenging time in the former Soviet Union, Teichtal said. “In spite of all the darkness, his focus was selflessness, dedication, love for all humanity and the unwavering faith that we are going to overcome,” Teichtal said. ___ Associated Press religion coverage receives support through the AP’s collaboration with The Conversation US, with funding from Lilly Endowment Inc.

'Fatherhood is the most important job I'll ever do': Britney Spears' fiancé Sam Asghari, 28, breaks his silence after the singer, 40, revealed she's pregnant with her third child - Sam shared a post on his Instagram account on Monday evening, confirming that he and Britney are expecting their first child together - His post came hours after the popstar broke the news on her own social media - The actor, who previously called Britney a 'lioness', posted an image of two lions with a cub, stating 'marriage and kids are a natural part of a strong relationship' - His reference to marriage comes weeks after Britney sparked a flurry of rumors that the couple had secretly tied the knot by referring to Sam as her 'husband' - Britney's pregnancy comes after she was freed from a 13-year conservatorship during which she alleged she was forced to be on birth control - During legal proceedings to end the conservatorship, Britney voiced her desire to be 'able to get married and have a baby' Britney Spears' fiancé Sam Asghari has broken his silence over the news that the couple is expecting their first child together, gushing that 'fatherhood... is the most important job he will ever do'. The 28-year-old actor shared his thoughts on parenting just hours after Britney, 40, stunned the world by announcing that she is pregnant with her first child - just months after she was freed from a 13-year conservatorship during which she says she was forced to be on birth control. Sam, who has previously referred to the popstar as a 'lioness', shared a painted image of two lions with their cub, writing alongside it: 'Marriage and kids are a natural part of a strong relationship filled with love and respect. 'Fatherhood is something I have always looked forward to and I don't take it lightly. It is the most important job I will ever do.' Parents in the making! Britney Spears' fiancé Sam Asghari has gush that 'fatherhood is the most important job he'll ever do,' after the singer revealed she's pregnant with her third child. Sam captioned his post: 'Marriage and kids are a natural part of a strong relationship filled with love and respect. 'Fatherhood is something i have always looked forward to and i don’t take lightly. It is the most important job i will ever do.' Sam, who will welcome his first child with Britney began dating in October 2016, and got engaged in October 2021. Over the moon: The actor, who has previously called the hitmaker a 'lioness,' shared an Instagram painting of two lions and their cub Important: In the caption he candidly noted that he doesn't take the prospect of being a parent 'lightly' Britney has two sons Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15 from her previous marriage to Kevin Federline. On Monday the Toxic hitmaker shared news of her pregnancy on social media, after deciding to take a test when she noticed she'd gained weight while on vacation, and originally thought it was 'just a food baby' until she saw the positive result. Britney also referred to Sam, 28, as her 'husband' in the post, sparking rumours that the pair have secretly wed. DailyMail.com has reached out to reps for the couple for comment. In her announcement post, Britney also spoke about suffering perinatal depression during her first two pregnancies. Baby one more time! On Monday Britney surprised fans by sharing that she was expecting her third child after noting she'd gained weight while on hokiday (pictured on April 6) Perinatal distress is an umbrella term used to describe symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress that women may experience from conception to one year following birth. Britney explained: 'It's hard because when I was pregnant I had perinatal depression.' 'I have to say it is absolutely horrible… women didn't talk about it back then … some people considered it dangerous if a woman complained like that with a baby inside her but now women talk about it everyday … thank Jesus we don't have to keep that pain a reserved proper secret.' Tough time: In her announcement post, Britney also spoke about suffering perinatal depression during her first two pregnancies Last week, the mother-of-two was seen swimming naked with her assistant Vicky, after rolling around on the beach in a bikini. Before that, Britney posted a snap of her swimming topless in the ocean while on vacation. The pregnancy news comes after it was claimed that the Toxic singer forced onto birth control while she was under her 13-year-long conservatorship, that was terminated last November. In a court hearing in June last year, Britney spoke out against her conservatorship publicly, as she said she feels 'traumatized' by the controlling system she has been placed under. She said: 'I am not happy, I can't sleep. I'm so angry, it's insane. And I'm depressed. I am traumatised. I just want my life back. Arrival: It will be the first child for the singer and fiancé Sam (Pictured above at LAX this weekend) Spears has two sons from her previous marriage to Kevin Federline 'I want to end this conservatorship without being evaluated. This conservatorship is doing me way more harm than good. I deserve to have a life, I've worked my whole life. I deserve to have a two to three-year break.' The Toxic hitmaker accused her father and her conservatorship team of refusing to allow her to marry her boyfriend, Sam, 28, or have children with him. Britney claimed her conservators have made her get an IUD as a form of birth control so she cannot currently have children, even though she wanted to 'get married and have a baby' with Sam. She added: 'I want to be able to get married and have a baby. I have an IUD inside of myself so that I don’t get pregnant, but [my team doesn’t] want me to have any more children.' The star slammed her situation as 'abusive', and even called for her father and those involved with her conservatorship to be 'jailed'. Expecting: The Baby One More Time hitmaker explained that she got a pregnancy test after noticing that she had gained weight while on vacation Struggles: Britney explained that she had suffered with perinatal depression during her first two pregnancies (pictured above with ex-husband Kevin Federline) She fumed: 'They have me going to therapy three times a week and to a psychiatrist. 'I truly believe this conservatorship is abusive. I don't feel like I can live a full life. In the meantime, I want this therapist to come to my home, I'm not willing to go to Westlake ... They set me up by sending me to the most exposed places. I need your help. 'My dad and anyone involved in this conservatorship, including my management … they should be in jail.' All grown up: Britney is pictured above with her two sons Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15, in an Instagram snap Long haul: Britney and Sam have been an item after first meeting back in October of 2016 Following Britney’s remote appearance in court, Jamie Spears' legal team released a statement insisting he 'loves his daughter very much'. They said: 'He is sorry to see is daughter suffering and in so much pain. Mr Spears loves his daughter very much.' Since then, the singer has made no secret of her wish to have more children. In a topless beach photo from Sam Asghari's birthday vacation, Britney captioned the post: 'Planning on having babies in Polynesia!!!!!!'

Every 10 years, the city goes through a redistricting process to reflect any population shifts found in the decennial U.S. census. The process culminates in the Redistricting Task Force — the body charged with leading the process — creating a new map of the city that ensures each district has similar population sizes while preserving neighborhoods and communities as much as possible. But the plan the task force voted to adopt over the weekend doesn’t do that. Rather, it threatens to dismantle decades of Asian American community organizing across the city. For over 50 years, the Asian American community has worked tirelessly to ensure its voice is heard at the city level. Living in close-knit concentrated areas of San Francisco, activists galvanized and mobilized the community from within to assert its own agency and to participate in civic life. With time, that hard work paid off. By 2012, the city had elected 10 Asian American supervisors, including a board president, along with two Assembly members, a state senator and the city’s first Asian American mayor. But the draft map — which must be finalized by Friday — dilutes the voting strength of Asian Americans by making key districts that have historically elected Asian Americans to the Board of Supervisors more white, more affluent and less diverse. In particular, the new boundaries for District One (the Richmond) decrease Asian American population by 2.11% while they increase the white population by 2.38% with the addition of the wealthy Sea Cliff neighborhood. In District Three (Chinatown), the new map drops the Asian American population by 2.13% and increases the white population by 1.88%. In District Seven (west of Twin Peaks), the Asian American population drops by 2.61% while the white population is boosted by 2.42%. While those shifts may seem insignificant, even small changes can affect the outcome of an election. District One Supervisor Connie Chan defeated opponent Marjan Philhour in 2020 by only 125 votes. Decreasing the population of Asian Americans in these districts will make it more difficult to elect Asian Americans to the Board of Supervisors in the coming decade. This is not the first time the redistricting process threatened Asian American political representation in San Francisco. Just a few months ago, the California Citizens Redistricting Commission, the statewide body responsible for congressional, state Senate and Assembly redistricting, tried to create a majority white Assembly district that would have significantly decreased the voting power of Asian Americans by separating the growing immigrant and Asian communities in Visitacion Valley and Hunter’s Point from Chinatown, which would have remained in the proposed district. The outcry from the Asian American community was fast, loud and furious and fortunately the map was rightfully scrapped. There are similar problems causing Asian American disenfranchisement in other parts of the Bay Area as well. In San Jose, for example, Asian Americans comprise 38% of the city’s population and are the largest growing ethnic population in the city but they currently have no representation on the city council. Moreover, no Asian Americans served on the city’s Redistricting Commission, the body responsible for approving San Jose’s council district map. Unsurprisingly, that city’s final district map diminished the voting power of Asian Americans and other communities of color as well. Asian American political representation matters. Under the leadership of Assembly Member Phil Ting and then-Assembly Member David Chiu, the Asian American community of San Francisco was able to secure millions of dollars to support schools, housing, health and social services for the city, including $166 million of state funding to address the rising number of hate incidents directed against Asians. However, term-limits will preclude Ting’s continued service and Chiu now serves as San Francisco’s City Attorney. In a few years, the city faces the very real prospect of having no Asian American representative from San Francisco in the state Legislature for the first time in years. Given that Asian Americans make up about a third of the city’s population, such an outcome would be devastating to the community and undermine our city’s democratic ideals. The California Supreme Court has recognized the importance of maintaining community cohesion by designating “communities of interest” as a redistricting factor. The court defines the term as a “contiguous population which shares common social and economic interests.” The court further requires that “the geographic integrity of any ... local community of interest shall be respected in a manner that minimizes their division to the extent possible.” The draft map fails to abide by the court’s mandate. With only a few days left in the redistricting process, it might be tempting to resign ourselves to accepting the plan the task force voted to approve. But now is the moment that the Asian American community, as well as other minority communities being disenfranchised by the proposed map, must stand up and be heard. The task force is scheduled to meet one final time Wednesday to finalize the plan. The Asian American community needs to be at that meeting to ensure its voice is heard. The fortunes of the next generation of emerging Asian American leaders depends on it. David Lee is the executive director and Justin Ma is a student intern at the Chinese American Voters Education Committee.

Propaganda for the battle of the sunlounger? Now German tourists can fly to their destinations in planes painted like BEACH TOWELS - German charter airline Condor has unveiled two planes with a striped livery - The stripy paint job is 'inspired by parasols, bath towels and beach chairs' - Eighty per cent of its fleet will have the striped livery by 2024, the airline says - It's part of the airline's evolution into a ‘distinctive and unique vacation airline’ German airline Condor has given some of its planes a striking striped livery that it says is 'inspired by parasols, bath towels and beach chairs'. Though others may view it as a propaganda coup in the battle of the sunlounger. Germans are known for being highly efficient at throwing down beach towels to reserve the best spots by the pool and on the beach – and some may see Condor’s new paint job as broadcasting a statement of intent. German airline Condor has given some of its planes a striking striped livery that it says is 'inspired by parasols, bath towels and beach chairs' According to Condor, the new livery is part of its evolution into a ‘distinctive and unique vacation airline’ According to Condor, though, it’s all part of its evolution into a ‘distinctive and unique vacation airline’. ‘Condor is vacation. And vacation is stripes,’ says the airline. The five different colours of each candy-cane plane have a unique meaning - green for 'island', yellow for 'sunshine', blue for 'sea', red for 'passion' and beige for 'beach'. The stripes are also said to stand for 'the diversity of Condor's guests and employees'. The first repainted plane to be unveiled was a green-and-white striped A330neo, pictured above in Toulouse ‘Condor is vacation. And vacation is stripes,’ says the airline The first striped plane to be unveiled - showcased on the tarmac in Toulouse earlier this month - was a green-and-white striped A330neo, which is set to ferry passengers this autumn. A yellow-and-white Airbus A321, meanwhile, was the first striped Condor plane to make an 'official flight', flying holidaymakers from Frankfurt to Lanzarote on April 5. This aircraft will be joined by five more repainted planes - Boeing 757, Airbus A320, and Airbus A321 models – in flying Condor’s summer flight schedule, heading to Mallorca, Greece, the Canary Islands and Egypt. The charter airline plans to have around 80 per cent of its fleet – which consists of 54 aircraft - repainted by 2024. According to the airline, as each of the planes is due a fresh coat of paint anyway, it’s ‘choosing the most sustainable way to redesign its brand identity and fleet’. The five colours of each candy-cane plane have a special meaning - green symbolises 'island' The Condor logo on the tail of each aircraft has been given a ‘facelift’ The colourful stripes aren’t the only new twist to the Condor livery - the Condor logo on the tail of each aircraft has been given a ‘facelift’, a statement explains, ‘with finer and more dynamic lines’. Condor’s lettering has similarly been revamped – the bold black font has been made to appear more ‘compact’. And change is also afoot inside the cabins. The crew uniforms, and their neckerchiefs, ties and pins, will reflect this new stripy design, as will the cups, blankets and cutlery on board. Even Condor’s boarding passes and airport signage will get the stripe treatment. The makeover definitely packs a punch, but it's not to everyone's tastes. Willie Walsh, the director general of the International Air Transport Association (Iata) and former BA boss, said that he 'didn’t like' the livery when he saw it and wouldn't 'have signed off on it', according to FlightGlobal. The debate has taken to Twitter, with user 'alexampersander' writing: 'I'm not necessarily a fan of the livery but I'm a huge fan of Condor doing something different. Well done.' User 'ChrisQuinnNCL' described it as 'rubbish', whereas 'PatWerner74' labelled it 'unique and remarkable'. And 'realCessnaBroon' weighed in: 'Just seen the new Condor livery in the flesh, and I have to say, it is bonnie.' Comparisons have also been drawn to 'Where's Wally?' and Twister ice cream lollies, and one Twitter user, ‘aviosAdventurer’, joked that Condor's new business class seats might be stripy deck chairs. This Airbus A321 was the first striped Condor plane to make an 'official flight', flying holidaymakers from Frankfurt to Lanzarote on April 5 Condor’s lettering has also been revamped – the bold black font has been made to appear more ‘compact' Commenting on the airline’s redesign, Ralf Teckentrup, CEO of Condor, said: ‘Condor has undergone a transformation over the past two and a half years - from a subsidiary of a vertically integrated travel group to an independent airline that looks back proudly on its history and tradition, while at the same time embarking on the path to the future. We want to express this unmistakably through our corporate identity: Condor is vacation and Condor is unmistakable - like our new design, with which we are now launching into the future. ‘Our new trademark are stripes, our figurative mark stands for our origin and the colours for diversity. This triad is new, what remains is our passion. It has always made Condor unique and is therefore also reflected in our claim - passion is our compass.’ Remo Masala, the owner of Berlin-based creative agency Vision Alphabet, which was tasked with the conception of the new brand identity, added: ‘Revising Condor's brand identity with its long tradition is a delicate interplay based on respect for its origins and requirements for the future. 'Our goal was to endow Condor with a special visual independence, the rationale of which is united in Condor's brand essence - the invention of the vacation flight, and the effective vacation code, the stripes of summer, joy and freedom.’ For more information visit www.condor.com/eu. - Book & Plan - Condor - ttps://twitter.com/ChrisQuinnNCL/status/1511345918666321929 - https://twitter.com/PatWerner74/status/1511001537212043271 - https://twitter.com/aviosAdventurer/status/1511007693955289097 - https://twitter.com/alexampersander/status/1511308710500569097 - https://twitter.com/realCessnaBroon/status/1511379776421961737 - https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb-lzTBl9cE/ - New Condor livery not to Willie Walsh’s taste | News | Flight Global

Benfica star Darwin Nunez is one of the hottest prospects in European football at the minute, with the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United all reportedly interested in signing the talented striker. The Uruguayan international has caught the attention of some of Europe's biggest clubs following an impressive campaign with the Portuguese giants. His goalscoring talent would come in handy for a number of clubs, including London duo Arsenal and Chelsea. The pair are thought to be on the lookout for a new forward ahead of the 2022/23 campaign and Nunez could well be an excellent candidate. With plenty of rumours revolving around the 22-year-old's services, football.london takes a look at the latest reports doing the rounds. Read more here: Arsenal currently have worst finisher in the Premier League as Arteta dealt selection dilemma Lewandowski implication La Liga giants Barcelona are one of the many clubs that have been credited with an interest in Nunez, with The Telegraph claiming last month that a move to Spain was more likely for the youngster. However, a number of fresh reports now claim that the Blaugrana are instead chasing Bayern Munich star Robert Lewandowski, a move that would surely rule the Catalan club out of the running for Nunez. Nunez transfer decision made as Man Utd make first move According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Nunez will leave Benfica this summer for a fee in the region of €80million (£66.8million). Romano wrote on Twitter: "Darwin Nunez will leave Benfica in the summer, fee around €80m. His new agent will now meet with many top clubs to explore opportunities. Man United already discussed his name internally - Arsenal wanted him last January as West Ham but Darwin was not for sale." Chelsea, Man Utd lead race for Nunez Whilst Arsenal are one of the clubs who has been linked with the Benfica forward for the most amount of time, it appears that their Premier League rivals have stolen a march on them. According to The Athletic, Chelsea, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are 'leading the race' for Nunez ahead of the summer window. It is suggested that Benfica are open to a sale but ideally want a deal wrapped up sooner rather than later so that they can sign a replacement. Benfica boss speaks out Benfica boss Nelson Verissimo has suggested that Arsenal and Chelsea target Darwin Nunez could be worth as much as Joao Felix should he move in the upcoming window. The Portuguese departed Benfica for Atletico Madrid in 2019 for a huge fee of £113m. He said: “It will be at the end of this season or the following season, depending on what it has shown, it is natural that it will arouse interest from other clubs and naturally there may be the timing in which it goes. Now regarding numbers, I hope as a Benfica fan that he will leave for numbers close to those that were João Félix's numbers." Nunez changes agent Ahead of what is expected to be a busy summer for the Benfica striker, he has made a major decision regarding his representation this window. In an official statement released on Twitter, he has confirmed that he will not renew his deal with current agent Egardo Lasalvia. He wrote: "I want to clarify that I will not renew my contract with my representative Edgardo Lasalvia. I also want to clarify that neither my family nor I have received any threats and we are fine.” Reports have suggested that he could be set to turn to super-agent Jorge Mendes. Read the full story here. Tottenham interest According to The Athletic, superagent Jorge Mendes is in talks with Nunez, as well as AS Roma's Tammy Abraham, about replacing Harry Kane should the Tottenham Hotspur striker leave the Lillywhites this summer. The report also claims that Mendes enjoys a solid relationship with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy and Managing Director Fabio Paratici. Edu meeting Arsenal are tracking Benfica striker Nunez ahead of a potential summer move, football.london understands. The forward has scored 26 goals in 33 games this season, including the winning strike in the recent Champions League last-16 win over Ajax. Gunners technical director Edu is in contact with the representatives of Nunez and has shortlisted the Uruguayan forward as a potential summer signing. Arsenal's 'charm offensive' With Edu clearly intensifying his search for a new frontman, the Gunners have reportedly taken the first steps to persuade Nunez to join Mikel Arteta's project in north London. As per Record, the Gunners are on the ‘charm offensive’ to convince the Benfica man to join the club. The report adds that Arsenal are ‘a few steps above’ the likes of West Ham United and Newcastle United in pursuit of the 22-year-old. Whether Arsenal sign Nunez is a different question, but if reports are to be believed, the early signs are indeed encouraging. Arsenal join Manchester United in transfer race Having been impressed by his goal-scoring displays for Benfica, Arsenal are just the latest in a long line of clubs interested in making a move for Nunez as soon as the January transfer window opens. As well as the Gunners, Premier League rivals Manchester United, West Ham and Newcastle are also reportedly keeping tabs on his future. That is according to CalcioMercato, who also suggest that Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich are also interested in swooping for the forward. Elsewhere, AC Milan also appear to be contenders as they attempt to find a potential replacement for former Gunners striker Olivier Giroud. No offers lodged Considering the fee that Benfica are demanding for Nunez, it is not a total surprise to learn that no offers matching that have yet been lodged. As per Matteo Moretto, official bids to Benfica have not yet been forthcoming. Considering the interest in his services, that could potentially change as the summer transfer window creeps into view.

Filmmaker Paul Verhoeven has criticised the James Bond franchise for not including any sex scenes in No Time To Die. The Benedetta director shared his thoughts on the 007 films following the news that Daniel Craig will be retiring from the role, saying many Hollywood studio films today are sexless. “It’s about crashing and blowing up,” Verhoeven said of franchises like 007, in an interview with The Sunday Times. “Sometimes these movies are fun, but the narrative tells you nothing about us now. I don’t see any other thought in Marvel or Bond movies.” Verhoeven shared his thoughts on what his own Bond film would look like, saying “I’d go back to reality” with “cars that don’t leap up into the sky.” The filmmaker went on to criticise No Time To Die for scrapping any intimate scenes between Bond, after praising the ones in Craig’s debut as 007 in Casino Royale. “There was always sex in Bond!” Verhoeven said. “They did not show a breast, or whatever. But they had some sex.” Verhoeven most recently directed Benedetta, which will be released in UK cinemas over the Easter weekend. Last year, the filmmaker hit out at critics who took aim at the film’s sex scenes. “I don’t really understand how you can really blaspheme about something that happened, even in 1625,” he said. “You cannot change history, you cannot change things that happened, and I based it on the things that happened. So I think the word blasphemy in this case is stupid.”

As schools race to make up for classroom time they lost during the pandemic, many are grappling with a simple but vexing question: Which students need help most urgently, and what kind? Many schools saw large numbers of students fall under the radar when learning went online for the pandemic. Many skipped class, tests and homework. Record numbers of families opted out of annual standardized tests, leaving some districts with little evidence of how students were doing in reading and math. Now districts are trying to address that lack of information by adding new tests, training teachers to spot learning gaps and exploring new ways to identify students who need help. In many districts, the findings are being used to guide the spending of billions of dollars in federal relief that’s meant to address learning loss and can be used in myriad ways. New York City is adding three rounds of testing this year, hoping to pinpoint which students are behind. Similar tests are being used in Virginia’s Fairfax County, which is allotting larger shares of funding to schools with lower scores. Chicago is prioritizing students using a ranking system that factors in their grades and also rates of COVID-19 and violent crime near their homes. “Understanding completely where students are and what those gaps or challenges might be for them — that is going to be a challenge for us,” said Debbie Durrence, the data officer for Gwinnett County, Georgia. Her team, which serves the 180,000-student district, has started tracking a new metric: “missingness.” In regular reports, the team aims to log what is known about each student’s learning progress, but also what is unknown. Schools have been asked to help fill in gaps, and students are being tested more frequently. For students, disruptions related to the pandemic are still reverberating. Now that Lorena Rivera’s twin daughters are back in the classroom in Boston, some of their teachers have quit mid-year or gotten sick with COVID-19. The 14-year-old twins struggled with virtual learning, feeling like they had nowhere to turn when they had trouble with math problems. “There was a lot of giving up — it was hard,” Rivera said. Her daughters, Elizabeth and Amerie Allder, have since found support through a local tutoring program, Boston Partners in Education, but Rivera wonders whether their school knows how her daughters are doing. “I’m not sure because every time you meet with someone, they give you something different,” she said. “Some teachers say they’re doing great, others say they can do better.” Early results of data gathering by some of the country’s biggest school districts confirm what many had feared: Groups of students that already faced learning gaps before the pandemic, including Black and Hispanic students and those from low-income families, appear to be behind in even greater numbers now. In Fairfax County, tests given this fall found that 68% of Hispanic elementary school students need intervention in math, up from 55% in 2019. Students learning English saw a similar increase. A quarter of white students were flagged for help, up from 19% in 2019. Last year, public schools in Houston found that 45% of Black and Hispanic students had at least one failing grade. That was up from 30% in 2019, and nearly three times the rate of white students. Similar inequities are turning up at schools across the country, said Robin Lake, director of the Center on Reinventing Public Education, a national research group. It suggests that longstanding inequities are widening, she said, which could translate to deeper learning and income gaps for generations to come. States have been raising alarms, urging schools to focus on students who spent more time away from school. Utah’s education officials found that students who missed last year’s exams were far more likely to be Native American or Hispanic, prompting an urgent call to find those students and “prevent them from falling into an academic spiral.” Many bigger districts already had testing regimes and data systems to find students who are falling behind, while some are scrambling to catch up. But not all major districts are analyzing the data or making it public. New York City is spending $36 million on new testing, but officials said they don’t have district-wide results. Instead, they said the tests are being used at the school level to help teachers support students. Schools in Chicago were encouraged to use a new screening exam, but a district spokesperson declined to provide the results. In Fairfax County, where more than 20% of students opted out of state tests last year, district officials attempted to fill in the gaps by giving students informal, low-stakes tests to measure their progress this fall. “We’ve been working to figure out which students need the most targeted support most quickly,” said Amy Goodloe, principal of Rocky Run Middle School. Teachers have used test results to find concepts students struggle with and create plans to get them up to speed, she said. The results are also guiding the district as it divides $188 million in federal funding among nearly 200 schools. In many buildings, the money is being used to add staff who help students in small groups, or to hire tutors for more personal help after school. Testing increases in some districts have led to pushback from parents and teachers who say it takes away from valuable classroom time, but proponents say it’s a crucial step toward understanding the impact of the pandemic. In Texas, a law passed last year requires 30 hours of tutoring for students who did not pass state exams last year. It applies to students who failed tests but also those who didn’t take exams. In Houston, the state’s largest district, officials are hiring more tutors but haven’t added new tests. “Increasing the numbers of assessments isn’t going to yield a different result, it just would impact the amount of instructional time we have as a district,” said Margarita Gardea, who oversees elementary curriculum and instruction. Finding tutors, though, has been a challenge in many areas amid a sudden surge in demand. In Florida’s Miami-Dade County, school officials created a new learning loss index based on assessments, attendance and state exams, and then ranked students based on need. The district brought back retired teachers to work as tutors on a temporary basis, and it’s expanding summer school, Saturday classes and other programs. So far, test results have shown some progress toward getting students up to grade level, but thousands of students are still behind. “The bottom line is that we have such a loss that it will take some time,” said Gisela Feild, administrative director of assessment, research and data analysis. “You can’t make up that kind of a loss in one year.” ___ Associated Press reporter Kathleen Foody contributed from Chicago.

LVIV, Ukraine - Civilians were fleeing from areas of eastern Ukraine on Tuesday ahead of an anticipated Russian offensive, while Kyiv said it was checking reports that Russian forces had used chemical weapons in the besieged port city of Mariupol. The battle for Mariupol, where the regional governor said tens of thousands may have been killed, appeared to be reaching a decisive phase, with Ukrainian marines holed up in the Azovstal industrial district. Should the Russians seize Azovstal, they would be in full control of Mariupol, the lynchpin between Russian-held areas to the west and east. The city has already been laid waste by weeks of Russian bombardments. Deputy Defence Minister Hanna Malyar said the government was checking unverified information that Russia may have used chemical weapons while besieging Mariupol. "There is a theory that these could be phosphorous munitions," Malyar said in televised comments. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy had said on Monday night that Russia could resort to chemical weapons as it massed troops in the eastern Donbas region for a new assault on Mariupol. He did not say if they actually had been used. The United States and Britain said they were trying to verify the reports. The governor of the eastern Donetsk region, Pavlo Kyrylenko, said he had seen incident reports on possible chemical weapons use in Mariupol but could not confirm them. "We know that last night around midnight a drone dropped some so-far unknown explosive device, and the people that were in and around the Mariupol metal plant, there were three people, they began to feel unwell," he told CNN. They were taken to hospital and their lives were not in danger, he said. Asked about the total number of dead in Mariupol, Kyrylenko said: "We are currently discussing 20-22,000 people dead," adding that the figure needed to be checked very carefully. Chemical weapons production, use and stockpiling is banned under the 1997 Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC). Although condemned by human rights groups, white phosphorous is not banned under the CWC. Russia's defense ministry has not responded to a Reuters request for comment. Russian-backed separatist forces in the east denied using chemical weapons in Mariupol, the Interfax news agency reported. But should it prove to be the case, it would mark a dangerous new development in a war that has already left a trail of death of destruction since Russian President Vladimir Putin sent his troops over the border on Feb. 24. About a quarter of Ukraine's 44 million population have been forced from their homes, cities turned into rubble, and thousands of people have been killed or injured - many of them civilians. REDOUBLING EFFORTS Putin calls the action a "special military operation" to demilitarize and "denazify" Ukraine but it has drawn condemnation and alarm in the West, which has imposed a wide range of sanctions to squeeze the Russian economy. After their troops got bogged down in the face of Ukrainian resistance, the Russians abandoned their bid to capture the capital Kyiv for now. They are redoubling their efforts in the east and Ukrainian forces are digging in to face a new offensive. The governor of Luhansk region, Serhiy Gaidai, urged residents to evacuate using five humanitarian corridors agreed for the east. "It's far more scary to remain and burn in your sleep from a Russian shell," he wrote on social media. "Evacuate, with every day the situation is getting worse. Take your essential items and head to the pickup point." In all, nine humanitarian corridors had been agreed for Tuesday, including one from Mariupol, Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk said. The General Staff of Ukraine’s Armed Forces said that aside from trying to take control of Mariupol, Russian forces were intent on capturing Popasna, a town about two hours drive west of Luhansk, and were set to launch an offensive in the direction of Kurakhove in Donetsk. Ukrainian troops had repulsed attacks in both Luhansk and Donetsk, it said. President Zelenskiy pleaded overnight for more weapons from the West to help it end the siege of Mariupol and fend off the expected eastern offensive. "Unfortunately we are not getting as much as we need to end this war faster...in particular, to lift the blockade of Mariupol," he said. Separately, in an address to the Lithuanian parliament, Zelenskiy urged the European Union to impose sanctions on all Russian banks and Russian oil and to set a deadline for ending imports of Russian gas. "We cannot wait," he said. WAR CRIMES ALLEGATIONS The departure of Russian forces from the outskirts of Kyiv brought to light allegations of war crimes, including executions and rape of civilians. Moscow dismisses these and has in turn accused Ukrainian forces of sexual violence. United Nations official Sima Bahous told the Security Council on Monday: "We are increasingly hearing of rape and sexual violence.." Kateryna Cherepakha, president of rights group La Strada-Ukraine, told the council via video: "Violence and rape is used now as a weapon of war by Russian invaders in Ukraine." Russia's deputy U.N. ambassador denied the allegations. The Russian defense ministry said Ukraine's government was being directed by the United States to sow false evidence of Russian violence against civilians despite what it said was Moscow's "unprecedented measures to save civilians." Putin said on Tuesday Moscow's military operation would undoubtedly achieve what he said were its "noble" objectives. Speaking at a ceremony at the Vostochny Cosmodrome in the Russian Far East, Putin was quoted as saying by Russian news agencies that Moscow had no choice but to act to protect Russia and that a clash with Ukraine's anti-Russian forces had been inevitable. He is scheduled to meet Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko to discuss Ukraine and Western sanctions. Belarus is a staging area for Russian forces.

Lloyd's of London switches to remote trading after climate protests LONDON, April 12 (Reuters) - Lloyds of London said on Tuesday it had advised its employees and market participants not to come to their City of London headquarters on Tuesday and was trading remotely after climate activists blocked several entrances to the building. Extinction Rebellion said more than 60 people had gathered at the insurance market's flagship building to demand it "stop insuring fossil fuels including coal, tar sands, oil and gas." Protestors used superglue, chains and bike locks to block entrances with the aim of forcing Lloyd's to close for the day, the group said. Climbers also scaled the outside of the building and dropped a banner which said 'End fossil fuels now'. "Lloyd's supports safe and constructive engagement on climate change and we're continuing to work to support a responsible transition," a spokesperson for Lloyd's said. "In the interests of our people´s safety, we have advised corporation employees and market participants not to come to the building today. The market remains open and trading is continuing online using our remote capabilities." Police said they were aware of the protest and had officers at the scene. The protest formed part of the climate activists' "April Rebellion" which calls for further disruption across the country in order to push Britain to end all new fossil fuel investment.

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson has been threatened with legal action by Megan Rapinoe over a branding dispute. American footballer Rapinoe called out the WWE legend-turned-actor last week for his new logo for the XFL, an American football league which he bought off former boss Vince McMahon. She believes it is too similar to the logo for TogetherXR, a company she and wife Sue Bird, along with US teammate Alex Morgan, snowboarder Chloe Kim and swimmer Simone Manuel, created to challenge conventional roles for women in society. "Welp. This is awkward," tweeted Rapinoe. "Only thing @TheRock and @XFL2023 are gonna be cookin up is a response to the Cease and Desist and an ENTIRE new brand ID. @togethxr got this on lock boys." Fellow World Cup winner Morgan also hit out at Johnson, writing: "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I guess? Shout out to my team at @togethxr for creating a bad ass brand name, logo, and background story that resonates for so many." TogetherXR have since released a statement confirming they have contacted the XFL over the "striking similarities" between the two logos. What do you make of the claims? Let us know in the comments section. It read: "Togethxr and its co-founders have worked tremendously hard to build a platform that uplifts women in sports and culture. We were disheartened to see the announcement of the XFL’s new branding and logo, which has striking similarities to our own. “It’s our mission to weave representation and equality into all that we do, which is why we’ve issued a legal notice to the XFL highlighting our concerns." A post on their Instagram added: "Too often the work and creativity of women is overlooked and undervalued. Diversity and equality are the norm around here. We’re thrilled to see the XFL embrace inclusivity but this rebrand ain’t it. "We’ve issued a legal notice and will continue to protect the important work we’re doing." Neither Johnson or the XFL have publicly responded to the claims. A recent social media post from the XFL account said their "visual identity represents a new era for the forward-thinking league, signalling one of inclusivity, innovation, and co-creation as it works to build tomorrow’s league".

UDF delegation visits Kuttanad ALAPPUZHA April 12, 2022 17:32 ISTSatheeshan says farmers in dire straits and on the verge of suicide The State government is showing utter disregard for Kuttanad and its people, Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan has said. He was speaking to mediapersons after visiting rain-ravaged paddy polders in Kuttanad taluk on Tuesday. "The Opposition had raised issues related to Kuttanad in the Assembly. But the promises made by the government remain unfulfilled. It has failed to implement projects including the ₹2,000-crore second Kuttanad package announced by the previous Left Democratic Front government. Six agriculture officer posts in Kuttanad are lying vacant. Several inhabited areas are under water and people are migrating to other places. The government is not serious about the grave problems plaguing the region," Mr. Satheesan said. The Leader of the Opposition said the farmers in the region were in dire straits and on the verge of suicide. "Both the CPI(M) and CPI are treating the suicide of a farmer at Niranom lightly. The farmers are cultivating crops by borrowing money from private moneylenders at exorbitant rates or by pledging gold. Only a small number of farmers have got their crops insured. The government should purchase the rain-soaked paddy from farmers," Mr. Satheesan demanded, adding that the United Democratic Front would fight for the rights of farmers in the region and raise the issue in the Assembly. He called for a comprehensive project for Kuttanad, taking into account the vagaries of climate change. Mr. Satheesan said the government was going ahead with the SilverLine rail project without considering the perils of climate change. "Kuttanad is a parable of what is happening to the entire State. In view of the climate change, Kerala should go for balanced development. The summer rain causing large-scale crop loss and destruction has vindicated the UDF's stand," he added. Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee president K. Sudhakaran said the government which had failed to alleviate the grievances of the poor had no right to remain in power.

Manchester United and Erik ten Hag could face complications over any move to bring Robin van Persie back to Old Trafford as assistant manager - according to reports. Ajax expect Ten Hag to become the next United manager even though key figures at the club insist no deal has been formalised. Manchester Evening News revealed last month Ten Hag was a preferred candidate for the position. With one eager eye on the summer transfer window, meanwhile, suggestions as to who might join the Dutchman in the dugout are equally as prevalent and former United striker Van Persie has been mooted in that regard. However, as per this article from The Times, that would-be appointment might prove more difficult than anticipated due to visa complications prompted by Brexit. While he was a player at the highest level for well over a decade, Van Persie lacks elite coaching experience. READ MORE: Manchester United must let Erik ten Hag tear it down and rebuild As a result, that is understood to make a UK work permit more difficult to obtain post-Brexit. Interim manager Ralf Rangnick is set to remain in charge of the team until he moves upstairs into an advisory role at the end of the term and United move forward under a permanent successor for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Although no official announcement has been made, Ten Hag is thought to have edged out Mauricio Pochettino in the two-man race for the Old Trafford hot-seat. However, the Ajax manager downplayed ongoing developments as 'rumours' after clocking up another Eredivisie win on Saturday afternoon. Ajax remain front-runners to pick up a third Dutch crown under the United coach-elect. Van Persie currently serves as assistant manager to Arne Slot at Ajax's rivals and boyhood club Feyenoord.

“Good morning! Happy morning!” Rabbi Avraham Wolff exclaimed, with a big smile, as he walked into the Chabad synagogue in Odesa on a recent morning. Russian missiles had just struck an oil refinery in the Ukrainian city, turning the sky charcoal gray. Hundreds were lining up outside his synagogue hoping to receive a kilo of matzah each for their Passover dinner tables. The unleavened flatbread, imperative at the ritual meal known as a Seder, is now hard to find in war-torn Ukraine amid the war and a crippling food shortage. But the rabbi wanted no challenge to get him down — be it the lack of matzah or that he was missing his wife and children who had fled the Black Sea port for Berlin days ago. “I need to smile for my community,” Wolff said. “We need humor. We need hope.” Tens of thousands of Ukrainian Jews have fled while about 80% remain in Ukraine, according to estimates from Chabad, one of the largest Hasidic Jewish organizations in the world. Inside and outside Ukraine, a nation steeped in Jewish history and heritage, people are preparing to celebrate Passover, which begins sundown on April 15. It’s been a challenge, to say the least. The holiday marks the liberation of Jewish people from slavery in ancient Egypt, and their exodus under the leadership of Moses. The story is taking on special meaning for thousands of Jewish Ukrainian refugees who are living a dramatic story in real time. Chabad, which has deep roots and a wide network in Ukraine, and other groups such as the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (JDC) and the Jewish Federations of North America, have mobilized to help Ukrainian Jews celebrate Passover wherever they have sought refuge. In Ukraine, Chabad plans 52 public Seders welcoming about 9,000 people. In Odesa, Wolff is preparing to host two large Seders – one in early evening at the Chabad synagogue for families with young children and a later Seder at a hotel where participants can stay the night, obeying a 9 p.m. curfew. He’s been waving in trucks loaded with Passover supplies – matzah from Israel, milk from France, meat from Britain. “We may not all be together, but it’s going to be an unforgettable Passover,” Wolff said. “This year, we celebrate as one big Jewish family around the world.” JDC, which has evacuated more than 11,600 Jews from Ukraine, has shipped more than 2 tons of matzah, over 400 bottles of grape juice and over 700 pounds of kosher Passover food for refugees in Poland, Moldova, Hungary and Romania, said Chen Tzuk, the organization’s director of operations in Europe, Asia and Africa. In Ukraine, their social service centers and corps of volunteers are distributing nearly 16 tons of matzah to elderly Jews and families in need, she said. “Passover is something familiar and basic for Jewish people,” Tzuk said. “For refugees who have left everything behind, it’s important to be able celebrate this holiday with honor and dignity.” JDC is organizing in-person Seders in countries bordering Ukraine and elsewhere in Europe, she said, and is facilitating online Seders where it’s too dangerous to gather in person. The Jewish Federations of North America has set up a volunteer hub in support of refugees fleeing Ukraine; it’s a partnership with the Jewish Agency for Israel, the JDC and IsrAID. Russian-speaking volunteers, such as Alina Spaulding, will help organize a Seder for 100 refugees at a hotel in Budapest. Spaulding, a resident of Greensboro, North Carolina, fled Kharkiv, Ukraine, as a 5-year-old in the 1970s with her parents. She said the war has rekindled strong connections to Ukraine. “My mom showed me a photo of me with my grandpa on a street that was recently bombed,” Spaulding said. “We talked about the university in Kharkiv where my mom and dad went, which was also hit. Suddenly, it all felt so personal.” Spaulding believes spending Passover with refugees will be “an experience to remember.” “Part of the magic of Passover is finding your own story,” she said. “We’re in the middle of a modern-day exodus. I can’t even imagine the stories I will hear.” Celebrating a holiday can give people a rush of hope and happiness even in grim situations, said Rabbi Jacob Biderman, who leads Chabad activities throughout Austria, including a center in Vienna that is sheltering about 800 Ukrainian Jews. Days after refugees reached his center, Biderman led a joyous celebration of Purim, a festival commemorating the deliverance of Jews from a planned massacre in ancient Persia. “The look on their faces changed from sorrow to joy… Their eyes lit up,” Biderman said. “It gave them a sense of normalcy, dignity and the belief that their spiritual life is something no one can take away from them.” That fueled Biderman’s determination to provide a memorable Passover Seder for the refugees. Dr. Yaacov Gaissinovitch, his wife, Elizabeth, and their three children – ages 11, 8 and 4 – will be part of that celebration. They fled the Ukrainian city of Dnipro by car on Friday, March 4. Gaissinovitch, a urologist and mohel who performs the Jewish rite of circumcision, said it pained him, as an observant Jew, to drive on Shabbat – a forbidden act on the day of rest and prayer except when lives are at stake. “I drove nonstop for 12 hours to Moldova to save us all,” he said. “We sang all the Shabbat songs in the car. It was very, very hard.” In Dnipro, Gaissinovitch had his offices in the sprawling Menorah Center, which serves as a center of Jewish life, housing a synagogue, shops, restaurants, museums and the office of the city’s chief rabbi. After a month of being severed from everything familiar, the Chabad center in Vienna has been a blessing, Gaissinovitch said. “We’ve been accepted here very warmly,” he said. “After being disconnected for days, the children have been able to see that our life hasn’t stopped.” A similar community at the Chabad center in Berlin is housing about 1,000 refugees, including Rabbi Avraham Wolff’s wife and children from Odesa. The center plans to host eight Seders citywide and has distributed matzah and other food to community members. Refugees, including 120 children from an Odesa orphanage who arrived in Berlin along with Wolff’s family, distributed the items to locals, said Yehuda Teichtal, the chief rabbi of Berlin. “To me, this is extremely touching,” he said. “That people on the receiving end are able to give and not be viewed as victims. It’s empowering and energizing.” As they prepare for Passover, Teichtal, Biderman and Wolff said they have been inspired by Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, known as the Lubavitcher Rebbe, who was among the most influential global leaders in Judaism in modern times. April 5 marked the Rebbe’s 120th birth anniversary, a special number in Jewish tradition. “The Rebbe built a strong foundation (in Ukraine) so we’re able to do what we’re doing now,” Wolff said. Schneerson grew up in Ukraine during a challenging time in the former Soviet Union, Teichtal said. “In spite of all the darkness, his focus was selflessness, dedication, love for all humanity and the unwavering faith that we are going to overcome,” Teichtal said. ___ Associated Press religion coverage receives support through the AP’s collaboration with The Conversation US, with funding from Lilly Endowment Inc.

Maternity covers offered by companies are not in alignment with the rising cost of maternity in urban cities in India, according to a recent report by Plum, an employee health insurance platform. The average cost of childbirth (vaginal births) in Tier 1 cities and metros in India at private hospitals ranges between Rs 45,000 and Rs 55,000. However, the cost of Caesarean-sections in private hospitals can range between Rs 70,000 and Rs 2,00,000, depending on the level of complications. Given these figures, the study finds that while 66 per cent of the platform’s customers have adopted maternity covers, a majority of them cover expenses up to only Rs 50,000 for up to two children. Only 15 per cent have opted for covers between Rs 1,00,000 and Rs 1,25,000 for maternity. City-wise, Bengaluru has the highest average of Rs 55,000, followed by Chennai at Rs 53,000, New Delhi at Rs 51,000 and Mumbai and Hyderabad at Rs 45,000 each. Few Takers Maternity cover is an optional benefit and many organisations do not opt for it due to employee demographics and cost. Standalone retail policies for maternity are at present not available in India. Additionally, in retail health insurance, there is usually a 90-day waiting period from the time of the child-birth for the baby to get medical insurance coverage. Group health insurance policies provide cover for the baby from the first day. According to the report, ideal maternity benefits should provide a minimum cover up to Rs 1,00,000 for Tier 1 cities and cover the baby from the very first day. For workplaces to be considered equitable, employers must consider including of surrogacy and adoption leave policies and benefits, same-sex partner maternity and leave benefits and paternity leave and benefits. Healthcare inflation in India is rising at 18-20 per cent annually. In this backdrop, lack of proper maternity benefits could be one of the key reasons for a drop in the percentage of the women workforce from 26 per cent in 2005 to 20.3 per cent in 2019.

Kemarni Watson Darby: Man guilty of murdering partner's son, 3 - Published A man has been found guilty of murdering his partner's three-year-old son after inflicting more than 20 rib fractures over weeks of beatings. Nathaniel Pope left Kemarni Watson Darby with injuries comparable to a car crash or fall from height. Kemarni's mother Alicia Watson was convicted of causing or allowing her son's death at her West Bromwich flat. Watson and Pope were also found guilty of child cruelty charges at Birmingham Crown Court. Several jurors were in tears as the verdicts were read out after the 20-week trial. Kemarni had been the victim of what was described in court as a "brutal assault". Jurors heard it was one of several attacks the boy had suffered while living with Watson, 30, and her partner Pope, 32, at the flat in West Bromwich. Kemarni's body had 34 separate areas of external injuries which acted as a "silent witness" to his crime, the court was told. The pair had tried to pass this off as accidental and Watson told the police he was a "boisterous boy" who was "always running into things". Prosecutors said they deliberately beat Kemarni's abdomen rather than more obviously visible areas of his body. Kemarni had expressed a wish not to go back to her flat after contact visits with his dad. He died on the afternoon of 5 June 2018 after his ribcage was "crushed" at the two-bedroom flat. Both adults routinely abused drugs, the prosecution told the court, and neighbours said there had been a "constant smell of weed from the flat". Pope, a former warehouse worker, had been jailed in 2011 for attacking a mother with a metal bar in front of her children in London and dragging her off a bus by her hair. He had also previously been convicted of burglary and possession of heroin with intent to supply. Watson was said in court to have a "zero to a 100" temper and it emerged she spent money on cannabis and driving lessons at a time when her son lost his nursery place due to a lack of funds. The pair, who blamed each other from the witness box, were also convicted of one count of child cruelty, relating to rib fractures and an abdominal injury before Kemarni's death. They were also separately found guilty of two further counts of child cruelty in relation to other children. Watson was cleared of murdering her son. Their sentencing will take place at a later date.
