NEW YORK, July 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Greenidge Generation Holdings Inc. ("Greenidge" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: GREE). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 888-476-6529, ext. 9980.
The investigation concerns whether Greenidge and certain of its officers and/or directors have engaged in securities fraud or other unlawful business practices.
On February 2, 2022, Greenidge announced selected preliminary operating results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2020. Among other results, the Company reported that it "[e]xpects GAAP Net Loss of $(51) to $(41) million, including a noncash goodwill impairment charge related to the Support.com business of $42 to $47 million[.]"
On this news, Greenidge's stock price fell $1.51 per share, or 11.93%, to close at $11.15 per share on February 2, 2022.
Then, on June 30, 2022, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ("DEC") issued a statement "announc[ing] its denial of the Title V air permit renewal for the Greenidge Generation, LLC, facility located in the town of Torrey, Yates County." DEC stated that it had "determined the permit renewal application does not demonstrate compliance with the requirements of the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. Based on DEC's review of the specific facts and circumstances presented, this natural gas-fired facility's continued operations would be inconsistent with the statewide greenhouse gas emission limits established in the Climate Act." DEC specified that "[a]mong the factors considered was the dramatic increase in greenhouse gas emissions from the facility since the passage of the Climate Act, driven by the change in the primary purpose of its operations. Rather than solely providing energy to the state's electricity grid, the power plant now primarily provides energy behind-the-meter to support the demands of Greenidge's energy-intensive proof of work cryptocurrency mining operations."
On this news, Greenidge's stock price fell $0.20 per share, or 7.3%, to close at $2.54 per share on June 30, 2022.

Jordan chalks up business success from limestone riches
Issued on: Modified:
Karak (Jordan) (AFP) – Long before whiteboards, beamers and laptops entered modern school classrooms, teachers relied on the humble, dusty, sometimes screechy blackboard chalk -- a material that has created a Jordanian business success story.
Chemical engineer Salah Aloqbi remembers sitting on a bus in Amman in 1995 when he hit on the idea that would lead him to create his company. More than two decades later it boasts 150 staff, with exports to more than 100 countries.
Chalk, a white, soft limestone, was formed aeons ago when the shells of tiny marine creatures were compressed on the sea floor -- and the landlocked Middle Eastern desert country of Jordan is blessed with vast deposits.
"It was a game-changing idea," recalled Aloqbi, now 49, who founded the Jordan Chalk Manufacturing Company.
"I was returning from work at the Jordan Carbonate Company when I heard a radio interview saying that the calcium carbonate produced by the company is used in various industries in Jordan -- except the chalk industry."
Aloqbi pondered how to make blackboard chalk, which was until then wholly imported, to gain extra value from the calcium carbonate that is also used to produce white cement, make soils less acidic, and toothpaste more abrasive.
Seven years later, he launched a small factory in Karak governorate south of Amman, with two rooms and just five workers, and started experimenting -- initially by pulverising the porous material with a meat mincer.
"But the chalk that we produced at that time was no longer used around the world, so we moved to produce dustless medical chalk," he said, referring to a carbonate-based type with larger particles.
The right stuff
Some 2,149 attempts later, the businessman said proudly, he hit the right formula for dustless chalk, creating a "very strong export opportunity" that now sees his company produce 10 billion pieces a year.
Jordan has a near endless supply of the raw material, with the ministry of energy and mineral resources estimating the country's "assets of limestone exceed 1.3 billion metric tons".
Limestone is the common form of calcium carbonate CaCO3, the main ingredient for chalk.
"It comes to mind that this is an outdated product, but the truth is that we are struggling to meet the great demand," Aloqbi said as he inspected hundreds of cartons heading to Britain and Germany, Mali and Morocco.
The chalk pieces come in a wide palette of colours and are used for art and play around the world.
The firm has also branched out into coloured crayons and modelling clay, and is the country's only producer of chalk sticks.
Today, the company sits on a 7,500 square metre plot and offers sought-after jobs in a country where the unemployment rate soared to 25 percent last year, about the same as the poverty rate.
"Most of us are from villages in Karak governorate," said one employee, 28-year-old Sundus Majali. "More than half of the workers are women."
At first, she said, "it was difficult for parents to allow females to work ... But today they have no problem with that, especially because the factory is safe, not like other workplaces."
Another colleague, Alaa Aloqbi, 33, said "the factory has provided job opportunities at a time when life became difficult".

SALT LAKE CITY – Chet Holmgren shined in his summer league debut, scoring 13 of his 23 points in the first quarter to help the Oklahoma City Thunder build an early 20-point lead en route to a 98-77 victory over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday night.
The No. 2 pick in the draft also had seven rebounds, four assists and a Salt Lake City Summer League-record six blocks in 24 minutes. Holmgren, a versatile 7-footer from Gonzaga who averaged 14.1 points and 9.9 rebounds and ranked fourth nationally with 3.7 blocks per game, finished 7 of 9 from the floor and 5 of 5 at the free throw line.
Holmgren made 4 of 5 shots in the first quarter, including three 3-pointers. He sat out the first six minutes of the second quarter before finding Jalen Williams for a dunk to make it 42-22. Holmgren made six straight shots after missing his first attempt.
Jalen Williams, the No. 12 pick out of Santa Clara, added 17 points to help Oklahoma City spoil the debut of new Utah coach Will Hardy. Josh Giddey finished with 14 points and 11 assists.
Oklahoma City closed the third quarter on a 10-0 run for a 78-50 lead.
HEAT 94, WARRIORS 70
Serbian forward Nikola Jovic scored 25 points and grabbed nine rebounds on Day 3 of the California Classic in San Francisco.
Jovic, the No. 27 overall pick, was 5 of 7 from 3-point range and shot 9 of 16 overall. Six of his rebounds were on the offensive end, helping the Heat to a 47-23 edge on the glass. Jovic has played for Mega Basket in the Serbian league, averaging 11.7 points on 43% shooting in that league this past season.
“I'm just happy we won," the 6-foot-11 Jovic said. “My performance, you know, I've been working my whole life to play here (NBA) and I did good.”
Gui Santos, selected by Golden State with the 55th pick, had 12 points and five assists. The 6-8 forward from the Novo Basquete Brasil league was 3 for 3 from distance.
KINGS 87, LAKERS 75
No. 4 pick Keegan Murray scored 16 of his 24 points in the second half, and Sacramento finished the California Classic unbeaten after beating Los Angeles.
Murray, the Big Ten’s leading scorer at 23.5 points a game, also had seven rebounds and three steals. He was 9 of 16 from the field, including 2 of 4 from 3-point range.
Max Christie, a Michigan State guard selected with the 35th pick, had five points and eight rebounds for Los Angeles. Christie, the 6-foot-6 shooter and wing defender who left East Lansing after just one season, was 1 of 6 from the field.
GRIZZLIES 103, 76ERS 99
Jake LaRavia, the No. 19 pick out of Wake Forest, made four of Memphis' 15 3-pointers, and the Grizzlies won the opening game in Salt Lake City.

DUNCAN — When students return to the Duncan campus of Cameron University in August, they’ll likely notice a few big changes to the front of the building.
A new, large classroom complete with an adjacent computer lab is being built at the front end of the building, together with a new testing center and a remodeled student lounge area and foyer.
Susan Camp, the director of the university’s Duncan branch, said that the project had been planned and discussed for quite a while before work began this year.
“We had the desire to do it for several year,” Camp said. “The McCasland Foundation provided us the financial support that allowed us to be very deliberate about the design and work.”
Camp said that the rooms at the front of the building were outdated and not particularly comfortable or accessible.
“Some of the furnishings there were decades old,” Camp said. “And the two classrooms which have now been combined into the new student collaboration area were not very student friendly, and not accessible in terms of ADA [Americans with Disabilities Act].”
The new collaboration space will be completely compliant with the terms of the Americans with Disabilities act, and will include new chairs which will replace the theatre-style seats of the original classroom, and windows letting in light from outside.
“We’ve never had windows to the outside on this part of the building until now,” Camp said. “We’re hoping it will provide a brighter space, and a more inviting space for students.”
Funding for the project was provided by Cameron University and by The McCasland Foundation, the latter of which provided the bulk of the funding. Work is expected to be completed early in the fall semester, and Camp hopes that the construction will be finished by the time the semester begins.
Camp said that enrollment at the Duncan campus has remained steady over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, with about 10% of the total Cameron student population enrolled at the location. Some degrees can be finished entirely at the Duncan branch, the most popular of which being allied health sciences, business and accounting degrees.
“The beauty of the Duncan campus is that you can complete entire programs here,” Camp said. For some students, a commute is really not feasible, and so access to courses and tutoring support and computer support is really important to have access to, especially if you live on this part of Stephens County.”
The campus will also have a new testing center at the front of the building, allowing easy access for students at various points in the semester.
“This is a lot better placement than the old lab, where you had to walk through the whole building and a room full of students to get there,” Camp said.
Camp said that she believes the improvements will not go unnoticed by the students at the branch.
“I expect the students are going to be very excited and pleased with everything about it,” Camp said. “The aesthetics, the function, the access, the beauty, all of it.” | https://www.swoknews.com/news/duncan-branch-of-cameron-university-is-being-renovated-for-upcoming-semester/article_43123782-4d5c-578f-9dd9-98975baccf34.html | 2022-07-06T04:36:37Z | https://www.swoknews.com/news/duncan-branch-of-cameron-university-is-being-renovated-for-upcoming-semester/article_43123782-4d5c-578f-9dd9-98975baccf34.html | true |

GALLE, Sri Lanka (AP) — The sport of cricket has become a welcome distraction for Sri Lankans looking for a break from the effects of the economic crisis in the country — long lines to buy fuel and cooking gas and school and work disrupted because there is little access to public transport.
The cricket-crazed South Asian island nation is facing its worst economic crisis in recent memory, enduring acute shortages of food, fuel and medicine. The government has shut schools and universities and has limited fuel supplies.
“Yes there is a problem in the country, people have become poor and helpless with all kinds of problems. We have been living a monotonous life and sometimes spent five, six seven days in fuel lines,” said Ujith Nilantha, who watched the first test between Sri Lanka and Australia with his 10-year-old son last week in the southern city of Galle.
“There is no happiness for children, and we can’t provide what the child needs. When we watch this (cricket) it brings a mental healing,” added Nilantha, whose livelihood in the tourism sector has been disrupted after arrivals fell with the energy crisis.
Nilantha said he had planned to suggest his son play cricket, an expensive game by Sri Lanka's standards, but his life changed quickly with the economic crisis and his plans were shattered.
“We love cricket but we can’t spend all our time on cricket, with the employment problems and all of that. But I expect to get some relief from the pressures by watching cricket.”
Cricket, a legacy from British colonizers, has become part of the local culture in Sri Lanka as in many South Asian and Caribbean nations. It is has been looked upon as a unifying factor in a country torn apart by racial, religious and political discord.
Even a bloody quarter-century civil war did not hamper the progress or the following of the sport in Sri Lanka.
The now-defeated Tamil Tiger rebel group which fought for an independent state silenced their arms for the 1996 World Cup final, when Sri Lanka beat Australia to win the title.
Teenager Theekshana Nethumaksila was at the scenic cricket ground in Galle, having traveled from the neighboring city of Matara by train.
The 16-year-old Nethumaksila is scheduled to sit for public exams this year but is unable to prepare properly because the schools are closed.
“We only have cricket in times of sadness,” he said. “We come here to watch cricket to get it off our minds.”
Before going ahead with the tour, the Australian cricket team had to contemplate whether it was ethical to travel to Sri Lanka and play when local people were struggling without electricity even for basic needs.
The tour involved a three-game Twenty20 international series, won by Australia, and a five-match one-day international series, won 3-2 by Sri Lanka.
The Australian team's decision to go ahead with the tour earned them admiration from fans who turned up at the fifth one-day match last month dressed in yellow — the color of Australia's ODI uniform — to thank them for entertaining them and sending a positive message about Sri Lanka to the world.
Some of the Australian players returned the favor. Led by captain Pat Cummins, many used social media to say they appreciated the outpouring of support they had received from the Sri Lankan fans.
Australia won the first test match by 10 wickets, leaving Sri Lanka with a chance to square the series when the tour concludes with the second test starting Friday, also at Galle.

Monterey tattoo studio owner convicted and sentenced for sexually assaulting two women
MONTEREY, Calif. (KION-TV)-- The owner of Gold Coast Tattoo Studio was convicted on two counts of assault on Friday, according to the Monterey County District Attorney Jeannine M. Pacioni.
Justin Dewayne Foss, 43, was found guilty of two counts of assault on two women, said Pacinoni. He was sentenced to serve 100 days in jail, one year of probation, and no contact with his victims.
The first incident occurred on Jan 24, 2020, after Foss tattooed the right arm of Jane Doe 1. Foss was drinking before, during, and after tattooing the woman, and his behavior continued to sour.
Foss tried to unclasp the victim's bra while he asked her to remove certain clothing items while she was getting tattooed. Pacioni said Foss kept acting inappropriately throughout their encounter.
The second incident occurred on Jan 12., 2021, and he abused alcohol while tattooing Jane Doe 2. Foss made sexual remarks toward his victim and tried to get her to stay the night with him, said Pacioni.
He made a sexual advance toward her, and she tried leaving. Foss grabbed her and forced her to kiss him, said Pacioni. | https://kion546.com/news/2022/07/05/monterey-tattoo-studio-owner-convicted-and-sentenced-for-sexually-assaulting-two-women/ | 2022-07-06T04:51:27Z | https://kion546.com/news/2022/07/05/monterey-tattoo-studio-owner-convicted-and-sentenced-for-sexually-assaulting-two-women/ | false |
The wave of cancellations made over the past weeks will affect tens of thousands hoping to jet off this summer from Heathrow and Gatwick.
The industry has been struggling with staff shortages as demand for air travel rebounds.
British Airways had already removed 10% of scheduled flights between April and October, but said that "regrettably" more reductions were needed.
A spokesperson from the airline, which is the UK's largest, said: "We took pre-emptive action earlier this year to reduce our summer schedule to provide customers with as much notice as possible about any changes to their travel plans.
"As the entire aviation industry continues to face into the most challenging period in its history, regrettably it has become necessary to make some further reductions."
The carrier said it was in touch with customers to "apologise and offer to rebook them or issue a full refund".
The wave of cancellations comes ahead of Friday's deadline, announced last month by the Department for Transport (DfT), for an amnesty to give airlines a short window to hand back airport slots in the summer season they are not confident they will be able to operate.
BA is expected to announce further cancellations over the summer ahead of the deadline.
Airport slots provide airlines with the authorisation to take off or land at a specified time on a specified day. In usual circumstances, the carriers risk losing the slots - and taking a hit to their business - if they cancel flights.
On Wednesday, British Airways was also affected by a rare "schedule intervention" by Heathrow Airport.
Heathrow asked airlines to cut 30 flights from their Thursday morning schedules, as more passengers were expected than it could deal with. | https://www.loopvanuatu.com/global-news/british-airways-cancels-1500-more-flights-114030 | 2022-07-06T05:02:28Z | https://www.loopvanuatu.com/global-news/british-airways-cancels-1500-more-flights-114030 | false |
SAN ANTONIO — Local developers are exploring sites around San Antonio for a new minor league baseball stadium, Bexar county judge Nelson Wolff said Tuesday.
The San Antonio Missions, a San Diego Padres Double-A affiliate, currently play at Nelson Wolff Municipal Stadium on the city's west side. The ballpark does not meet Major League Baseball's facility standards, implemented when the MLB took over MiLB in 2021.
As mayor, Wolff lobbied for the stadium's construction. The field opened in 1994, making it the oldest ballpark in the Missions' division.
"There's a little bit more of a push to get (a new stadium) or we'll probably lose the franchise," Wolff said.
He says renovating the existing facility to comply with the league's minimum standards would likely cost about much as building a new ballpark.
Local firms are now eyeing plots along San Pedro Creek in downtown, Wolff said. Other investors are considering redeveloping the Lone Star Brewery to include a ballpark, he confirmed.
There is also some discussion of a northside stadium, to be shared with UTSA's baseball team, he added.
"There's a lot of us who would like to see it downtown, but so far, nothing has come of that," Wolff said. "There's other places to build, besides downtown. We'll see if this comes together."
Wolff said the MLB wants to see financing plans, ownership approval, and a secured site.
"I don't think Major League Baseball has made any hard deadline," Wolff added. "But they made it clear, I think, that we're going to have to have something moving forward." | https://www.kens5.com/article/news/local/wolff-stadium-san-antonio-missions-baseball-renovations/273-8ed742fd-cb46-45d1-9932-bac709ba7e5d | 2022-07-06T05:02:32Z | https://www.kens5.com/article/news/local/wolff-stadium-san-antonio-missions-baseball-renovations/273-8ed742fd-cb46-45d1-9932-bac709ba7e5d | false |
The operator of a Colorado funeral home who was accused of stealing body parts and selling them to medical and scientific buyers, making hundreds of thousands of dollars in what the authorities called an “illegal body part scheme,” pleaded guilty to mail fraud Tuesday, the Justice Department said.
The woman, Megan Hess, 45, the principal figure in the scheme, was assisted by her mother, Shirley Koch, who is in her late 60s, prosecutors said. As part of a plea agreement, eight other criminal charges against Hess were dropped. She could face up to 20 years in prison.
“I exceeded the scope of the consent and I’m trying to make an effort to make it right,” Hess said in U.S. District Court in Grand Junction, Colorado, on Tuesday, according to The Daily Sentinel. “I’m taking responsibility.”
Koch has pleaded not guilty, but she has a change of plea hearing scheduled for July 12.
Prosecutors said the scheme worked like this: From about 2010 to 2018 Hess was in charge of Donor Services, a nonprofit “body broker service,” and Sunset Mesa Funeral Directors, which offered to arrange cremations, funerals and burials in the small western Colorado city of Montrose.
Hess and her mother sometimes obtained consent from families to donate small tissue samples or tumors of their dead relatives, according to an indictment in the case. On other occasions, their request was rejected, and sometimes, they never brought up the topic at all.
In any case, the documents say, on hundreds of occasions the funeral home operators would sell heads, torsos, arms, legs or entire bodies. Frequently, they delivered cremated remains to families with the suggestion they were the remains of their relative when, in fact, they were not, according to the indictment.
The income the mother and daughter earned from selling body parts enabled them to become the cheapest option for cremations in their region, increasing their supply of cadavers, the authorities said. Still, the authorities said, families typically paid $1,000 or more for a cremation that often never occurred.
The scheme included forging paperwork, such as signatures on authorization forms for donating body parts, and misleading buyers about the results of medical tests performed on the deceased, court documents said. Hess altered lab reports so they said that people had tested negative for diseases like HIV and hepatitis when they had actually tested positive, according to the authorities.
Lawyers for Hess did not immediately reply to requests for comment Tuesday. A spokesperson for the Justice Department and a lawyer for Koch declined to comment on the plea agreement. | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/funeral-home-operator-pleads-guilty-in-illegal-body-part-scheme/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | 2022-07-06T05:02:57Z | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/funeral-home-operator-pleads-guilty-in-illegal-body-part-scheme/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | true |
NEW YORK, July 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Digital World Acquisition Corp. ("Digital World" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: DWAC; DWACW). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at newaction@pomlaw.com or 888-476-6529, ext. 7980.
The investigation concerns whether Digital World and certain of its officers and/or directors have engaged in securities fraud or other unlawful business practices.
On October 29, 2021, The New York Times published an article entitled "Trump's $300 Million SPAC Deal May Have Skirted Securities Laws." The article reported that Donald J. Trump's efforts to take Trump Media & Technology Group ("TMTG") public via a merger with Digital World, a special purpose acquisition company ("SPAC"), involved discussions of a merger with Digital World's founder before Digital World itself went public. These discussions may have violated federal securities laws, which prohibit SPACs from planning mergers before conducting their initial public offerings.
On this news, Digital World's stock fell $6.93 per share, or 10.23%, to close at $60.82 per share on November 1, 2021.
Then, on June 13, 2022, Digital World stated in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that "[a]s previously disclosed in Digital World's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2022 and other filings with the SEC, Digital World received a document request and subpoena from the SEC seeking various documents and information regarding, among other things, meetings of Digital World board of directors; communications with and the evaluation of potential targets, including TMTG; communications relating to TMTG; agreements with and payments made to certain advisors; investors, including investor meetings and agreements; the appointment of certain of Digital World's officers and directors; policies and procedures relating to trading; and documents sufficient to identify banking, telephone, and email addresses. The SEC also recently issued an order of examination pursuant to Section 8(e) of the Securities Act, with respect to the Registration Statement relating to the Business Combination, and a further subpoena in support thereof."
On this news, Digital World's stock price fell $10.71 per share, or 28.18%, to close at $27.30 per share on June 14, 2022.

NEW YORK, July 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Upstart Holdings, Inc. ("Upstart" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: UPST) and certain of its officers. The class action, filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, and docketed under 22-cv-03668, is on behalf of a class consisting of all persons and entities other than Defendants that purchased or otherwise acquired Upstart securities between March 18, 2021 and May 9, 2022, inclusive (the "Class Period") against Upstart and certain of its officers (collectively "Defendants") seeking to pursue remedies under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.
If you are a shareholder who purchased or otherwise acquired Upstart securities during the Class Period, you have until July 12, 2022 to ask the Court to appoint you as Lead Plaintiff for the class. A copy of the Complaint can be obtained at www.pomerantzlaw.com. To discuss this action, contact Robert S. Willoughby at newaction@pomlaw.com or 888.476.6529 (or 888.4-POMLAW), toll-free, Ext. 7980. Those who inquire by e-mail are encouraged to include their mailing address, telephone number, and the number of shares purchased.
Upstart is a financial technology firm that uses artificial intelligence ("AI") and data science to underwrite consumer credit. The Company partners with banks to offer credit to consumers, either through the Upstart website or through banking partner websites embedded with Upstart technology. Upstart claims that its underwriting process allows banking partners to originate credit with higher approval rates, lower loss rates, and a high degree of automation.
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants claimed that the lack of loans the Company retained on its balance sheet ensured it only was exposed to limited credit risk. In reality, as investors learned after markets closed on May 9, 2022, the Company's highly touted, AI underwriting model was unable to adequately assess credit risk in changing macroeconomic conditions. As a result, Upstart had been increasingly underwriting progressively less creditworthy loans throughout the Class Period.
Investors learned the truth during the Company's first quarter 2022 earnings call with analysts when Upstart admitted that the loans the Company had been forced to retain on its balance sheet had more than doubled in a single quarter. Specifically, Chief Financial Officer Sanjay Datta ("Datta") reported that the "balance of loans, notes, and residuals at the end of the quarter was . . . up to $604 million from $261 million in Q4." Datta attributed the increase of loans on the Company's balance sheet to "rising interest rates and rising consumer delinquencies putting downward pressure on conversion." Datta acknowledged that "historically, [the Company's] balance sheet has been almost exclusively for the purposes of R&D," but in the first quarter of 2022, the Company used the balance "to do . . . sort of a market clearing mechanism." He further stated that Upstart had "started to selectively use [its] capital as a funding buffer for core personal loans in periods of interest rate fluctuation where the market clearing price is in flux."
Reporting on the Company's results, one analyst dismissed the Company's purported "market clearing" justification and explained that the increase in loans on the Company's balance sheet represented a "divergence" from the Company's "capital-light business model" that indicated the Company had "few alternatives other than to hold more loans due to funding issues." In response to this disclosure, the price of Upstart common stock cratered 56% the following trading day, from a closing price of $77.13 on May 9, 2022, to a closing price of $33.61 on May 10, 2022.

Former Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office employee sentenced to nearly 10 years
Published: Jul. 5, 2022 at 11:32 PM CDT|Updated: 53 minutes ago
WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) - A former property and evidence supervisor for the Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office was sentenced to nearly 10 years (119 months) in prison in connection with a crime that happened in 2020.
Robert White was arrested in 2020 after $145,000 in cash was stolen from the property and evidence storage site, along with drugs, guns and tools. Another former sheriff’s office employee was also arrested in connection with the case.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Immigrant advocates head to a federal appeals court in New Orleans on Wednesday in hopes of saving an Obama-era program that prevents the deportation of thousands of people brought into the U.S. as children.
A federal judge in Texas last year declared the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program illegal — although he agreed to leave the program intact for those already benefitting from it while his order is appealed.
DACA proponents planned an early morning vigil ahead of arguments at the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
The U.S. Justice Department is defending the program, allied with the state of New Jersey, advocacy organizations such as the Mexican-American Legal Defense and Education Fund and a coalition of dozens of powerful corporations — including Amazon, Apple, Google and Microsoft — which argue that DACA recipients are “employees, consumers and job creators.”
Texas, the lead plaintiff with eight other Republican-leaning states, argues that DACA was enacted without going through proper legal and administrative procedures, including public notice and comment periods. Additionally, the states argue that they are harmed financially by allowing immigrants to remain in the country illegally.
“DACA imposes classic pocketbook injuries on the States through social services, healthcare, and education costs,” Texas attorneys argued in a brief, estimating that the state spends tens of millions of dollars on Medicaid services on those in the country illegally.
DACA proponents argue the state hasn't proven that ending the program would decrease its costs. They argue that DACA is a policy that falls within federal authorities' power to decide how best to spend finite enforcement resources and that Texas diminished its claims of financial injury by waiting six years to challenge the program. They also argue the state ignores evidence that DACA recipients decrease Texas' costs because many of them hold jobs with health insurance benefits and many own homes and pay property taxes that support schools.
“Texas and the other states cannot point to an injury that is traceable to DACA,” MALDEF attorney Nina Perales said in a news conference last week. “Without injury, there's no jurisdiction for the federal courts to hear this case.”
The damage to DACA recipients would be grave, immigrant advocates argued in one brief, exposing them to removal from the only country many of them have known and disrupting the lives of established families.
“Collectively, they are parents of over a quarter-million U.S. citizens, and 70% of DACA recipients have an immediate family member who is a U.S. citizen,” advocates stated in one brief.
DACA has faced numerous court challenges since then-President Barack Obama created it by executive order in 2012. Former President Donald Trump moved to end the program. But a U.S. Supreme Court decision determined that he had not done it properly, bringing it back to life and allowing for new applications. That was followed by the Texas-led lawsuit.
Assigned to hear arguments at the 5th Circuit were Chief Judge Priscilla Richman, an appointee of President George W. Bush; and two Trump appointees, judges James Ho and Kurt Engelhardt. | https://www.mrt.com/news/article/Appeals-arguments-set-on-immigrants-brought-to-US-17286688.php | 2022-07-06T05:25:59Z | https://www.mrt.com/news/article/Appeals-arguments-set-on-immigrants-brought-to-US-17286688.php | true |

Man accused of killing neighbor’s rooster claims self-defense
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (WJAX/WFOX) - A Florida man spent a month in jail on accusations he killed his neighbor’s pet rooster. He claims the rooster was a menace in the neighborhood and attacked him.
James Nix Jr. hit his neighbor’s pet rooster, Big Roo, with a stick in a May incident. He says the rooster followed and attacked him, so he was trying to get the animal away.
“Its neck flares up and he’s doing his thing, and he’s trying to jump up at me,” Nix said. “So, I’m defending myself. You know, I was fearing for my safety, and the chicken died.”
Nix says the death was an accident.
“I didn’t know to give it a 21-gun salute,” Nix said. “CPR, mouth-to-mouth, you know? Or call the chicken ambulance?”
His neighbor, Jason Defelice, reported the incident to authorities. He believes Nix killed Big Roo on purpose.
“Next thing you know, he calls the chicken police on me,” Nix said.
Nix went to jail on an animal cruelty charge in June. He says he never should have been arrested.
“Chickens dying every day – people at Church’s, Popeyes and Kentucky Fried Chicken. Really,” he said.
The neighbors disagree about the rooster’s behavior. Defelice says he was not informed of any incidents, but Nix says he told him when it attacked his dad.
Defelice also says the neighborhood kids liked to play with the rooster by throwing rocks, while Nix says they were trying to keep the animal away.

President Joe Biden has received the handwritten letter from WNBA Brittney Griner asking for his help while she is detained in Russia according to the White House.
Griner has been in Russian custody on drug charges since shortly before Russia waged its war on Ukraine. Griner's family have been appealing to U.S. officials to help her get home. After multiple delays, her trial in Russia began on Friday.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said she was there when Biden read the letter, however, declined to say whether the president would respond to it or if he planned to contact Griner's family.
"It is a deeply personal letter," Jean-Pierre said. "The president is going to do everything that he can in his power to bring her home, along with other U.S. nationals who are being ... wrongfully detained abroad," Jean-Pierre said.
Parts of the letter were made public through Griner's representatives according to The Associated Press. Griner wrote:
... As I sit here in a Russian prison, alone with my thoughts and without the protection of my wife, family, friends, Olympic jersey, or any accomplishments, I'm terrified I might be here forever.
On the 4th of July, our family normally honors the service of those who fought for our freedom, including my father who is a Vietnam War Veteran. It hurts thinking about how I usually celebrate this day because freedom means something completely different to me this year.
Biden's national security adviser Jake Sullivan spoke with Griner's wife Cherelle Griner on Saturday, Jean-Pierre said, and Secretary of State Antony Blinken has also spoken with Cherelle Griner recently.
Jean-Pierre also responded to comments from Griner's WNBA coach saying if she were Lebron, she would be home.
"Our commitment to seeing every single American who is held hostage, wrongfully detained, unjustly detained, that commitment is the same when it comes to our engagement with the families," Jean-Pierre said.

WASHINGTON — The Food and Drug Administration issued an administrative stay Tuesday on the order it issued last month for vaping company Juul to pull its electronic cigarettes from the market.
The agency said on Twitter that the stay temporarily suspends the marketing denial order while it conducts further review, but does not rescind it.
The FDA issued the initial order banning Juul sales on June 23. A day later, a federal appeals court temporarily blocked the government ban.
The initial FDA action was part of a sweeping effort by the agency to bring scientific scrutiny to the multibillion-dollar vaping industry after years of regulatory delays.
To stay on the market, companies must show that their e-cigarettes benefit public health. In practice, that means proving that adult smokers who use them are likely to quit or reduce their smoking, while teens are unlikely to get hooked on them.
The FDA originally said Juul's application left regulators with significant questions and didn't include enough information to evaluate any potential health risks. Juul said it submitted enough information and data to address all issues raised.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit granted Juul's request for a hold while the court reviews the case.
On Tuesday, the FDA said it has determined "there are scientific issues unique to the Juul application that warrant additional review."
Still, it said, the stay and the review do not "constitute authorization to market, sell or ship Juul products."

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — Parts of Australia’s largest city have been inundated by four major floods since March last year, leaving weary victims questioning how many times they can rebuild.
The latest disaster follows Sydney’s wettest-ever start to a year with dams overflowing and a sodden landscape incapable of absorbing more rain that must instead run into swollen waterways.
Here are the climate, geographic and demographic factors behind the scale of Sydney’s latest flooding emergency.
___
LEADERS BLAME CLIMATE CHANGE
New South Wales state Premier Dominic Perrottet said government and communities need to adapt to major flooding becoming more common across Australia’s most populous state.
“To see what we’re seeing right across Sydney, there’s no doubt these events are becoming more common,” Perrottet said on Monday.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the fourth major flood event across Sydney following devastating wildfires in the same region during the 2019-2020 Southern Hemisphere summer were evidence of the need for climate action.
“What we know is that Australia has always been subject of floods, of bushfires, but we know that the science told us that if we continued to not take action globally on climate change, then … extreme weather events would be more often and more intense,” Albanese said on Wednesday.
“What we’re seeing, unfortunately, is that play out,” Albanese added.
___
LA NINA OUT, OTHER WEATHER PATTERNS IN
Two La Niña weather patterns brought above-average rainfall across Australia’s east coast in 2021 and this year. The second was declared over last month, but the Bureau of Meteorology forecast a wetter than usual Southern Hemisphere winter for Sydney and a 50-50 chance of La Niña returning this year.
The bureau says two climate drivers led to Sydney's flooding since Saturday.
The flooding was influenced by the Indian Ocean Dipole, which refers to the difference in sea surface temperatures between the western and eastern Indian Ocean. In the negative phase, warmer waters concentrate near Australia, leading to above-average Southern Hemisphere winter–spring rainfall as more moisture is available to weather systems crossing the continent. The IOD has repeatedly dipped into its rain-bearing negative phase in the past month and is expected to stay negative within months.
A second influence was the positive Southern Annular Mode. The SAM refers to the non-seasonal, north-south movement of the strong westerly winds that blow almost continuously in the mid to high latitudes of the southern hemisphere. In the positive phase, the SAM directs more moisture-filled air than usual into eastern Australia, driving above-average rainfall and more east coast lows in winter.
During the latest rainfall event, extraordinarily warm waters off the Australian coast, 21 to 23 degrees Celsius (70 to 73 degrees Fahrenheit), provided extra energy and moisture to a deep trough and east coast low, concentrating heavy rainfall to one 24-hour period that started at 9 a.m. Saturday.
Several rain gauges in Sydney and its surrounding area set July or all-time records.
___
GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY
Much of Sydney’s rain drains into a river system prone to spilling over, but economic interests have largely blocked moves to mitigate flooding.
A 22,000-square kilometer (8,500-square mile) rain catchment covering the Blue Mountains on Sydney’s western fringe and the city of 5 million’s western suburbs drain into the Hawkesbury-Nepean river system, which is the epicenter of some of the worst flooding.
The river system faces an extreme flood risk because gorges restrict the rivers’ seaward flow, often causing water to rapidly back up and spill across the floodplain after heavy rain, said Jamie Pittock, Australian National University professor of environment and society.
The Hawkesbury-Nepean Valley was home to 134,000 people and that population was projected to double by 2050 as Sydney’s population and real estate prices grow, he said.
“The potential economic returns from property development are a key driver for the lack of effective action to reduce flood risk,” Pittock said.
The state government wants to raise the wall of the Warragamba Dam, Sydney’s main reservoir, to reduce flooding in the valley.
But some argue that raising the wall would control only half the floodwater and won’t prevent major flooding delivered by other rivers in the region, said Dale Dominey-Howes, Sydney University’s professor of hazards and disaster risk sciences. | https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/EXPLAINER-Factors-behind-Sydney-s-recent-flood-17286724.php | 2022-07-06T06:07:34Z | https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/EXPLAINER-Factors-behind-Sydney-s-recent-flood-17286724.php | false |
CAMPBELL, Calif., July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Halo Microelectronics (SSE: 688173), a maker of analog and power management integrated circuits enabling energy-efficient smart systems announced that its HL5501, a wireless smart power load switch IC is protecting Samsung's Galaxy S22 Ultra flagship smartphones in Korean and Canadian models.
The Halo Microelectronics HL5501 is a high-voltage protection load switch IC allowing up to 30V. The input/output pins can stand off from ±40V at the off condition to protect the smartphone against positive and negative coil pin voltage faults. In addition, the HL5501 provides a well-optimized solution for wireless charging Tx/Rx in the mobile application.
In a recent Insight Analytical Labs' Galaxy S22 Ultra teardown report, the Halo Microelectronics' HL5501 (JCM9) Wireless RX Coil Switch was present on the main board, as it supports Samsung's phone-to-phone or phone-to-watch charging through the wireless coil. Depending on the charging device, they control the coil size through the HL5501, which is optimized for power transfer and minimizes unnecessary radiation.
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra uses Qualcomm SM8450 Snapdragon 8 Octa-Core processor and boasts a 6.8-inch edge quad HD+ dynamic AMOLED 2x display with 16% more brightness. The 120Hz adaptive refresh rate keeps the scroll smooth and adjusts to what's on-screen for an optimized view. Its battery is 5000mAh (typical) and with 45W super-fast charging that can provide battery life from dusk until dawn on one charge, according to the Samsung website. The Galaxy S22 Ultra is also the first Galaxy S smartphone that comes with a built-in S pen. The iconic S Pen fits right into S for the first time and can be used to take notes, edit content, and draw sketches with precision.

Mandy Moore has cancelled the remaining dates on her U.S. tour to put her health first during her pregnancy.
Moore, who revealed she was expecting her second child with husband Taylor Goldsmith earlier this month, announced on Instagram on Tuesday that she was scrapping the rest of her In Real Life tour.
“It is with a heavy heart and much consideration that I have to let you all know that I am canceling my remaining show dates in 2022,” she began. “It has been an honor and an absolute dream to return to the stage again this past month, performing for all of you. When we booked these shows, I wasn’t pregnant and although I truly thought I could power through, the way we are traveling (long hours on the bus and not getting proper rest) has caught up, taken its toll, and made it feel too challenging to proceed.
“I know that I have to put my family and my health (and the health of my baby) first and the best place for me to be right now is at home. Thank you for all of your support along the way and thank you in advance for respecting my decision.”
Mandy kicked off her In Real Life tour in Atlanta, Georgia on 10 June and it was originally scheduled to conclude in Newport, Rhode Island on 24 July.
Moore announced she was pregnant on 3 June by sharing a picture of her son Gus, who was born in February 2021, wearing a “big brother” T-shirt.
“Baby Boy Goldsmith #2 coming this fall! Tour is gonna be slightly different than I expected but I can’t wait and Gus is gonna be the BEST big brother!!” she wrote in the Instagram caption.

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — Parts of Australia’s largest city have been inundated by four major floods since March last year, leaving weary victims questioning how many times they can rebuild.
The latest disaster follows Sydney’s wettest-ever start to a year with dams overflowing and a sodden landscape incapable of absorbing more rain that must instead run into swollen waterways.
Here are the climate, geographic and demographic factors behind the scale of Sydney’s latest flooding emergency.

LEADERS BLAME CLIMATE CHANGE
New South Wales state Premier Dominic Perrottet said government and communities need to adapt to major flooding becoming more common across Australia’s most populous state.
“To see what we’re seeing right across Sydney, there’s no doubt these events are becoming more common,” Perrottet said on Monday.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the fourth major flood event across Sydney following devastating wildfires in the same region during the 2019-2020 Southern Hemisphere summer were evidence of the need for climate action.
“What we know is that Australia has always been subject of floods, of bushfires, but we know that the science told us that if we continued to not take action globally on climate change, then … extreme weather events would be more often and more intense,” Albanese said on Wednesday.
“What we’re seeing, unfortunately, is that play out,” Albanese added.

LA NINA OUT, OTHER WEATHER PATTERNS IN
Two La Niña weather patterns brought above-average rainfall across Australia’s east coast in 2021 and this year. The second was declared over last month, but the Bureau of Meteorology forecast a wetter than usual Southern Hemisphere winter for Sydney and a 50-50 chance of La Niña returning this year.
The bureau says two climate drivers led to Sydney's flooding since Saturday.
The flooding was influenced by the Indian Ocean Dipole, which refers to the difference in sea surface temperatures between the western and eastern Indian Ocean. In the negative phase, warmer waters concentrate near Australia, leading to above-average Southern Hemisphere winter–spring rainfall as more moisture is available to weather systems crossing the continent. The IOD has repeatedly dipped into its rain-bearing negative phase in the past month and is expected to stay negative within months.
A second influence was the positive Southern Annular Mode. The SAM refers to the non-seasonal, north-south movement of the strong westerly winds that blow almost continuously in the mid to high latitudes of the southern hemisphere. In the positive phase, the SAM directs more moisture-filled air than usual into eastern Australia, driving above-average rainfall and more east coast lows in winter.
During the latest rainfall event, extraordinarily warm waters off the Australian coast, 21 to 23 degrees Celsius (70 to 73 degrees Fahrenheit), provided extra energy and moisture to a deep trough and east coast low, concentrating heavy rainfall to one 24-hour period that started at 9 a.m. Saturday.
Several rain gauges in Sydney and its surrounding area set July or all-time records.
___
GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY
Much of Sydney’s rain drains into a river system prone to spilling over, but economic interests have largely blocked moves to mitigate flooding.
A 22,000-square kilometer (8,500-square mile) rain catchment covering the Blue Mountains on Sydney’s western fringe and the city of 5 million’s western suburbs drain into the Hawkesbury-Nepean river system, which is the epicenter of some of the worst flooding.
The river system faces an extreme flood risk because gorges restrict the rivers’ seaward flow, often causing water to rapidly back up and spill across the floodplain after heavy rain, said Jamie Pittock, Australian National University professor of environment and society.
The Hawkesbury-Nepean Valley was home to 134,000 people and that population was projected to double by 2050 as Sydney’s population and real estate prices grow, he said.
“The potential economic returns from property development are a key driver for the lack of effective action to reduce flood risk,” Pittock said.
The state government wants to raise the wall of the Warragamba Dam, Sydney’s main reservoir, to reduce flooding in the valley.
But some argue that raising the wall would control only half the floodwater and won’t prevent major flooding delivered by other rivers in the region, said Dale Dominey-Howes, Sydney University’s professor of hazards and disaster risk sciences.

Michael Kopech allowed five home runs in his first 14 starts this season.
The Minnesota Twins hit four of their five homers Tuesday off the Chicago White Sox right-hander.
The Sox couldn’t recover from the long balls, falling 8-2 in front of 18,566 at Guaranteed Rate Field.
“It’s not a good day, but unfortunately that’s how baseball goes sometimes,” Kopech said. “Made some bad pitches over the heart of the plate and they hit them hard. I’ve just got to be better than that. That’s something that’s easy to fix from start to start. It’s just executing pitches better.”
Jose Miranda and Jorge Polanco hit two-run homers and Max Kepler and Alex Kirilloff had solo home runs against Kopech. Kirilloff also hit a two-run homer against Vince Velasquez for the Twins, who have taken the first two rounds of a critical three-game series for the Sox.
The Sox, who are in third in the American League Central, trail the division-leading Twins by 6½ games. The Sox are 0-5 against the Twins this season.
Kopech allowed six runs on eight hits with five strikeouts and four walks in 4⅔ innings.
“Obviously it’s a big series, we want to beat these guys, so it’s tough right now,” Kopech said. “But I think everybody is looking forward to turning it around, however it comes. The effort and energy has been there from the guys on and off the field in the clubhouse.
“As a starter, I’ve got to do my part to set the tone and that goes a long way. It’s not how we want to play, especially the first two in a series against these guys, but we’re capable of turning it around.”
Kopech got out of a bases-loaded jam without allowing a run in the first, striking out Kirilloff to end the inning.
Kepler homered with two outs in the third. Kirilloff singled leading off the fourth and Miranda followed with his two-run homer, making it 3-0.
Polanco hit the first pitch in his fifth-inning at-bat over the right-field wall for a two-run homer. Kirilloff made it back-to-back for a 6-1 lead.
“I had some close misses in the first inning,” Kopech said. “I was happy with some pitches I threw. They were just being really patient with me and I was being a little too aggressive at the time. Changed my approach later in the game, being reactive to what they were doing, and then I started throwing more strikes and then they changed their approach to me.
“They seemed like they were playing proactively out there and I was playing a little reactively, which is never a good spot. I’ve just got to set the tone a little earlier.”
Kirilloff’s two-run homer in the seventh against Velasquez made it 8-2.
The Sox had 10 hits, but their only extra-base hits were doubles by Yoán Moncada and Josh Harrison. A run scored on Moncada’s double in the fourth.
“First of all, (the Twins) had pitches to hit and they didn’t miss them,” Sox manager Tony La Russa said. “That’s to their credit. From our side, I don’t like talking about home runs because you get that in their minds and we’ll do less, not more.
“We just want to be good hitters. When we hit the ball well — and we centered a few of them today, (Andrew) Vaughn hit two line drives — when we center the ball more consistently, we’ll get production we need, whether it’s home runs or runs scored or whatever.”
Harrison — who pitched a scoreless ninth — had two hits. His single in the seventh was his 1,000th big-league hit.
“Truly a blessing,” Harrison said of the milestone. “We put on this uniform and try to play as long as we can and never set out for individual accolades. But sometimes it’s nice to take a step back and appreciate the work I’ve put in to know I’ve been here this long.
“It’s something I don’t take lightly. I’m definitely grateful.”
Reese McGuire had three singles. But little else went right for the Sox, who will try to avoid being swept Wednesday.
“At the end of the day it’s not about who is on the other side,” Harrison said. “We have to take care of what we do in here and that’s showing up every day and keep plugging away.”

James Patrice says homophobia is still a problem in Ireland.
The social media sensation is proud of how progressive our country has become in recent years, but adds that we need to keep a dialogue going as there is still “ignorance and cowardice” out there.
James told RSVP Live: “Ireland is of course so progressive and we have come on leaps and bounds, there is no denying that whatsoever and 99% of the time it is fantastic.

“But unfortunately, there are people who use their time to troll online, heckle in the street or, in some worst cases, physically abuse others.
“They are cowards. They are looking for an outlet for their own insecurity and issues and they shouldn’t be taking it out on people because of their sexuality. It’s disgusting, really.”
James’ online skits involving fictional characters Malahide Woman and her partner Declan have become a success in recent years, but unfortunately the Dubliner has faced some backlash from trolls too for being “too queer”.
The TV star says we need to keep a dialogue going and speak up against homophobia and transphobia.
“Complacency can be compliance sometimes. If you witness something and don’t speak up, that’s wrong as well,” he said.
He added: “But I always say speak up if you feel safe enough to do so, never put yourself in a dangerous situation either.
“If you hear flippant remarks - yes they are throwaway comments, but if you hear those enough, they can become part of your psyche and your own mentality, especially if it’s amongst your peers.
“We need to keep conversations going, and be mindful of how we speak and talk about things because words can have an impact.
“It’s just about being mindful and generally being feckin’ sound.”
Thankfully for James, most of the feedback he gets for Malahide woman is enormously positive, and he admits he had no idea how successful his online persona would be.
“It’s mad. She started as a random idea in my head,” he said.
“I was dressed all in white one day and thought to myself, ‘I feel like a Malahide woman dressed for tennis’.
“She has definitely grown very long-heeled legs. There’s no stopping her and I think she has more rails of clothes than I do at this stage.
“Plus, her hair is getting bigger. It’s lovely to have her so well received.”
This month, James is back hosting a brand new series of Battle of the Food Trucks.
The show airs on RTE Player and sees a number of food truck businesses from all over the country battle it out to win a cash prize of €5,000.
Following a successful first season, James is back for new episodes and this time he has a co-host in the form of comedian Justine Stafford.
Opening up about the show’s return, James told us: “We’re back for a second season bigger and better than ever.
“Justine is such a scream, I am so happy to have her there. It’s great to have a longer show because we get to see more and learn more about the contestants which is lovely.
“There are brand new challenges and there is a great variety between the trucks which makes it harder for the judges to make a decision.
“The show proves that the food truck phenomenon is going nowhere, even after the pandemic. There is now a place for them now in Irish society.”
James is no stranger to our TV screens as he works as a roving reporter on some of RTE’s biggest shows including Today and Dancing with the Stars.
Since Battle of the Food Trucks started, he has now been bitten by the presenting bug and hopes he can land more TV work in the future.
“Nowadays you have to be a million things in order to get ahead, have success and keep working. It’s great to add another string to your bow,” James said.
“I love reporting on Today and Dancing with the Stars, but I do love presenting and want to do more of it. It’s great fun, because you get to put your own stamp on things.
“Hopefully this will lead to more things. It is great to say you’re hosting a show which is your own and fingers crossed there will be more.”
Battle of the Food Trucks is streaming now on RTE Player.

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — Parts of Australia’s largest city have been inundated by four major floods since March last year, leaving weary victims questioning how many times they can rebuild.
The latest disaster follows Sydney’s wettest-ever start to a year with dams overflowing and a sodden landscape incapable of absorbing more rain that must instead run into swollen waterways.
Here are the climate, geographic and demographic factors behind the scale of Sydney’s latest flooding emergency.
___
LEADERS BLAME CLIMATE CHANGE
New South Wales state Premier Dominic Perrottet said government and communities need to adapt to major flooding becoming more common across Australia’s most populous state.
“To see what we’re seeing right across Sydney, there’s no doubt these events are becoming more common,” Perrottet said on Monday.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the fourth major flood event across Sydney following devastating wildfires in the same region during the 2019-2020 Southern Hemisphere summer were evidence of the need for climate action.
“What we know is that Australia has always been subject of floods, of bushfires, but we know that the science told us that if we continued to not take action globally on climate change, then … extreme weather events would be more often and more intense,” Albanese said on Wednesday.
“What we’re seeing, unfortunately, is that play out,” Albanese added.
___
LA NINA OUT, OTHER WEATHER PATTERNS IN
Two La Niña weather patterns brought above-average rainfall across Australia’s east coast in 2021 and this year. The second was declared over last month, but the Bureau of Meteorology forecast a wetter than usual Southern Hemisphere winter for Sydney and a 50-50 chance of La Niña returning this year.
The bureau says two climate drivers led to Sydney’s flooding since Saturday.
The flooding was influenced by the Indian Ocean Dipole, which refers to the difference in sea surface temperatures between the western and eastern Indian Ocean. In the negative phase, warmer waters concentrate near Australia, leading to above-average Southern Hemisphere winter–spring rainfall as more moisture is available to weather systems crossing the continent. The IOD has repeatedly dipped into its rain-bearing negative phase in the past month and is expected to stay negative within months.
A second influence was the positive Southern Annular Mode. The SAM refers to the non-seasonal, north-south movement of the strong westerly winds that blow almost continuously in the mid to high latitudes of the southern hemisphere. In the positive phase, the SAM directs more moisture-filled air than usual into eastern Australia, driving above-average rainfall and more east coast lows in winter.
During the latest rainfall event, extraordinarily warm waters off the Australian coast, 21 to 23 degrees Celsius (70 to 73 degrees Fahrenheit), provided extra energy and moisture to a deep trough and east coast low, concentrating heavy rainfall to one 24-hour period that started at 9 a.m. Saturday.
Several rain gauges in Sydney and its surrounding area set July or all-time records.
___
GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY
Much of Sydney’s rain drains into a river system prone to spilling over, but economic interests have largely blocked moves to mitigate flooding.
A 22,000-square kilometer (8,500-square mile) rain catchment covering the Blue Mountains on Sydney’s western fringe and the city of 5 million’s western suburbs drain into the Hawkesbury-Nepean river system, which is the epicenter of some of the worst flooding.
The river system faces an extreme flood risk because gorges restrict the rivers’ seaward flow, often causing water to rapidly back up and spill across the floodplain after heavy rain, said Jamie Pittock, Australian National University professor of environment and society.
The Hawkesbury-Nepean Valley was home to 134,000 people and that population was projected to double by 2050 as Sydney’s population and real estate prices grow, he said.
“The potential economic returns from property development are a key driver for the lack of effective action to reduce flood risk,” Pittock said.
The state government wants to raise the wall of the Warragamba Dam, Sydney’s main reservoir, to reduce flooding in the valley.
But some argue that raising the wall would control only half the floodwater and won’t prevent major flooding delivered by other rivers in the region, said Dale Dominey-Howes, Sydney University’s professor of hazards and disaster risk sciences. | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/explainer-factors-behind-sydneys-recent-flood-emergecies/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | 2022-07-06T06:33:57Z | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/explainer-factors-behind-sydneys-recent-flood-emergecies/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | true |
Michael Kopech allowed five home runs in his first 14 starts this season.
The Minnesota Twins hit four of their five homers Tuesday off the Chicago White Sox right-hander.
The Sox couldn’t recover from the long balls, falling 8-2 in front of 18,566 at Guaranteed Rate Field.
“It’s not a good day, but unfortunately that’s how baseball goes sometimes,” Kopech said. “Made some bad pitches over the heart of the plate and they hit them hard. I’ve just got to be better than that. That’s something that’s easy to fix from start to start. It’s just executing pitches better.”
Jose Miranda and Jorge Polanco hit two-run homers and Max Kepler and Alex Kirilloff had solo home runs against Kopech. Kirilloff also hit a two-run homer against Vince Velasquez for the Twins, who have taken the first two rounds of a critical three-game series for the Sox.
The Sox, who are in third in the American League Central, trail the division-leading Twins by 6½ games. The Sox are 0-5 against the Twins this season.
Kopech allowed six runs on eight hits with five strikeouts and four walks in 4⅔ innings.
“Obviously it’s a big series, we want to beat these guys, so it’s tough right now,” Kopech said. “But I think everybody is looking forward to turning it around, however it comes. The effort and energy has been there from the guys on and off the field in the clubhouse.
“As a starter, I’ve got to do my part to set the tone and that goes a long way. It’s not how we want to play, especially the first two in a series against these guys, but we’re capable of turning it around.”
Kopech got out of a bases-loaded jam without allowing a run in the first, striking out Kirilloff to end the inning.
Kepler homered with two outs in the third. Kirilloff singled leading off the fourth and Miranda followed with his two-run homer, making it 3-0.
Polanco hit the first pitch in his fifth-inning at-bat over the right-field wall for a two-run homer. Kirilloff made it back-to-back for a 6-1 lead.
“I had some close misses in the first inning,” Kopech said. “I was happy with some pitches I threw. They were just being really patient with me and I was being a little too aggressive at the time. Changed my approach later in the game, being reactive to what they were doing, and then I started throwing more strikes and then they changed their approach to me.
“They seemed like they were playing proactively out there and I was playing a little reactively, which is never a good spot. I’ve just got to set the tone a little earlier.”
Kirilloff’s two-run homer in the seventh against Velasquez made it 8-2.
The Sox had 10 hits, but their only extra-base hits were doubles by Yoán Moncada and Josh Harrison. A run scored on Moncada’s double in the fourth.
“First of all, (the Twins) had pitches to hit and they didn’t miss them,” Sox manager Tony La Russa said. “That’s to their credit. From our side, I don’t like talking about home runs because you get that in their minds and we’ll do less, not more.
“We just want to be good hitters. When we hit the ball well — and we centered a few of them today, (Andrew) Vaughn hit two line drives — when we center the ball more consistently, we’ll get production we need, whether it’s home runs or runs scored or whatever.”
Harrison — who pitched a scoreless ninth — had two hits. His single in the seventh was his 1,000th big-league hit.
“Truly a blessing,” Harrison said of the milestone. “We put on this uniform and try to play as long as we can and never set out for individual accolades. But sometimes it’s nice to take a step back and appreciate the work I’ve put in to know I’ve been here this long.
“It’s something I don’t take lightly. I’m definitely grateful.”
Reese McGuire had three singles. But little else went right for the Sox, who will try to avoid being swept Wednesday.
“At the end of the day it’s not about who is on the other side,” Harrison said. “We have to take care of what we do in here and that’s showing up every day and keep plugging away.”

TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — The National Federation of Teachers Union (NFTU) has criticized the current teacher placement mechanism as prioritizing English over subject knowledge at the expense of the quality of education.
In a press release calling for an overhaul to the country's "Bilingual 2030" policy, NFTU President Hou Chun-liang (侯俊良) pointed out a myriad of shortcomings observed from this year's teacher placement exams that have been modified to comply with bilingual requirements. The union used the New Taipei City's teacher placement exam for junior high schools as an example, saying candidates vying for a bilingual teaching position could qualify for the second round not because of their subject knowledge, but because of their English proficiency.
The teachers union leader worried that the importance given to English may result in teachers not having adequate subject knowledge and a language environment where students fail to understand.
In response to the criticism, the Education Department of New Taipei City stated that in addition to the written exam, there is also an interview along with giving a trial lesson as part of the screening process to evaluate and guarantee a teacher's ability to teach a particular subject. The official explained that there is still a minimum score requirement for the second round, meaning those having good command of English but fail to demonstrate subject teaching ability will be disqualified.
This is not the first time the "Bilingual 2030" initiative has stirred controversy. There have been debates over the policy's promotion of English in conflict with the country's native languages. In April, a group of academics voiced their opposition to the plan and called for native languages to be prioritized instead. | https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4588990 | 2022-07-06T07:05:53Z | https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4588990 | false |
JACKSON, Calif. — Evacuation orders were expanded Tuesday for remote California communities near a wildfire that may have been sparked by fireworks or a barbecue on the Fourth of July in a mountainous region that's a top tourism destination.
The Electra Fire in Sierra Nevada Gold Country broke out Monday afternoon and tripled in size to about 6.1 square miles (15.8 square kilometers). It was 5% contained Tuesday night.
The fire was making short, uphill runs, fire officials said.
"The rate of spread isn't what it was like yesterday, but it is still spreading," said Amador County Sheriff Gary Redman. He said firefighters were working to keep flames confined to unpopulated canyon areas.
Mandatory evacuation orders and warnings combined affected up to 700 residents in Amador County and 300 to 400 people in Calaveras County, Redman said. Evacuation centers were set up for people and animals.
The fire started at a recreation area that was packed with people, forcing 85 to 100 celebrating the holiday at a river to take shelter at a Pacific Gas & Electric Co. facility, Redman said. All were later safely evacuated.
"This was the closest I've ever been to a fire. It was literally within feet of us," said Milka Mikula of Valley Springs, who had gone to the river with her husband, her 5-year-old daughter and her 1-year-old son.
They had to wait about six hours before they could finally start for home, she told KCRA-TV.
"I just wanted to get home. I just wanted to get out of there with my babies. I was shaking really, really bad for quite some time," Mikula said.
Redman said the cause of the fire was not known, but that it started in the Vox Beach area of the North Fork Mokelumne River. He said that could suggest fireworks or a barbecue as a potential cause.
More than 100 fire engines, 1,200 firefighters and 14 helicopters were sent to the fire, which was a threat to power infrastructure, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said. The terrain was described as steep and rugged.
Cal Fire activated an incident management team for the fire. The teams "are made up of trained personnel who provide operational management and support to large-scale, expanding incidents," Cal Fire said.
One firefighter from the local fire protection district suffered burn injuries, Redman said.
Vox Beach is about 55 miles (89 kilometers) east of Sacramento in the heart of the Sierra Nevada region that is steeped with the history of the mid-1800s Gold Rush.
Several other small fires were burning in the state.

UK's new finance minister to look at ways to remain competitive with Europe
LONDON, July 6 (Reuters) - Nadhim Zahawi, Britain's new finance minister, said on Wednesday he would look at ways at which the country can remain "competitive and dynamic" with its European neighbours and the rest of the world.
Asked about taxes, he said the Prime Minister wanted to ensure that the government had fiscal discipline, adding that he shared that focus with him.
"Of course I will be looking at where else can I make sure the economy remains competitive and dynamic with our European neighbours and the rest of the world as well.

A body found Tuesday in an estuary of the Han River just south of the border with North Korea may have floated from North Korea, police here said Wednesday.
The body, presumed to be a boy around 10 years old, was recovered at the estuary in Gimpo, Gyeonggi Province, just 9 kilometers from the Military Demarcation Line. It is where Han River meets the West Sea.
When the body was recovered, the deceased had only shorts on, which according to police investigators, looked worn out, had elastic waist strings and no fabric labels that are required for all clothing products sold here.
Police said they were working to establish the boy’s identity, while leaving all possibilities open, including accidental drowning, foul play or the victim of a recent North Korean flood having been washed down here.
In late June, the communist North’s state-run Korea Central News Agency reported that most parts of the country had suffered damage from heavy torrential downpours and subsequent flooding.
It is not a rarity that bodies of North Koreans wash up in the South.
In the summer of 2007, Seoul authorities repatriated the bodies of 11 North Korean flood victims who had floated down to the South.

PORTLAND, Maine — An unusual number of seals are becoming stranded and dying off Maine this summer, and avian influenza is to blame, the federal government said Tuesday.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has confirmed that samples from four Maine seals tested positive for the virus. The animals all died or required euthanasia, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said.
Marine mammal rescuers started to notice an unusually high number of seal strandings in June, and then the USDA conducted the tests, NOAA said in a statement. The rate of dead seal strandings in Maine is about three times the normal rate for the summer and is close to 60, the agency said.
The USDA is notifying the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and state animal and public health officials about the deaths, which came after a bird flu outbreak that led to the deaths of tens of millions of chickens and turkeys on farms. The virus is capable of jumping to mammals, though it rarely affects humans.
It's not the first instance of bird flu jumping to marine mammals such as seals, but the federal government is monitoring the deaths closely nonetheless, said Allison Ferreira, a NOAA spokesperson.
“There is a national outbreak of avian flu happening, so that was the cause of concern for these animals,” Ferreira said.
Most of the seals that have been founded stranded in Maine this summer have been dead, NOAA said. The dead seals have included gray seals and harbor seals.
The health risk “posed by avian flu to the general public is low; however, precautions are recommended,” NOAA's statement said. The agency said people and pets should never approach seals, and should contact authorities if they find an animal they believe is stranded.
Elsewhere in New England, hundreds of birds have washed up dead on Martha’s Vineyard, and local officials have sounded the alarm about a possible bird flu outbreak.
The source of the outbreak among seals is still being investigated.
Marine Mammals of Maine, a rescue organization, that it has responded to 40 stranded seals since June 1. Katy Green, a spokesperson for the organization, said it is “aware of this evolving situation” and working with NOAA on it.
Gray seals and harbor seals are abundant off New England, where they are beloved by wildlife watchers and sometimes bemoaned by fishermen. However, the bird flu deaths don't represent the first time they've died off at an alarming rate.
NOAA declared an “unusual mortality event” for the seals after more than 2,700 of them stranded off Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts from July 2018 to March 2020. Feds attributed those deaths to phocine distemper virus. That virus does not impact humans. | https://www.kgw.com/article/news/nation-world/seal-deaths-bird-flu/507-e7fd386b-5e50-461e-8f96-74a34680bc57 | 2022-07-06T07:30:33Z | https://www.kgw.com/article/news/nation-world/seal-deaths-bird-flu/507-e7fd386b-5e50-461e-8f96-74a34680bc57 | true |

CAIRO (AP) — With verdant gardens on one side and water on the other, they were an anomaly in a city bordered on three sides by desert. For decades, Cairo’s houseboats occupied prime waterfront real estate, offering residents a front-row seat to the passing Nile River, with its water taxis, anglers, sport rowers and occasional family of ducks.
But it’s coming to an end: A government push to remove the string of floating homes from the city’s Nile River banks has dwindled their numbers from several dozen to just a handful. Houseboats have been a Cairo tradition dating back to the 1800s and government efforts to remove them have drawn criticism in Egypt, where residents are mourning the loss of not just their homes but a way of life. Critics say the move is part of a series of development decisions by the government of Abdel Fattah el-Sissi that endanger the city’s heritage.
“The point is that they really, really don’t seem to understand that there is value — intangible values — there is value in history,” said Ahdaf Soueif, a prize-winning Egyptian novelist who bought and renovated a her houseboat after moving back to Egypt from the United Kingdom 10 years ago,
The floating homes are being removed or renovated to develop the waterfront commercially, according to officials. They have not released detailed plans of what that entails. In recent years a surge in infrastructure projects by el-Sissi’s government has drawn concern about heritage sites, including an ancient cemetery and historic gardens.
In late June, residents of at least 30 houseboats were ordered to evacuate within 20 days. Located on a stretch of the river in the working-class neighborhoods of Imbaba and Kit-Kat, they sat opposite the upscale residential island of Zamalek. The eviction notices came after years of government pressure in the form of increasingly expensive mooring licenses.
Action followed soon after, with most of the dwellings being dismantled by their owners or moved by the government in late June. The evictions are ongoing.
Soueif said her two sons had their wedding parties at her houseboat and it’s where she planned to spend the rest of her life. This week, her family watched it float away.
Soueif had been required to pay 72,000 Egyptian pounds (about $3,800) for a mooring license in 2018, up from 160 pounds in 2013.
Omar Robert Hamilton, Soueif’s son, said in a post on social media that Soueif and other residents stopped paying the fees and sued to fight the increases. But the government imposed fines and they are now demanding Soueif’s family produce 900,000 pounds, or roughly $48,000, in back fees.
Soueif hails from a prominent family of anti-government activists in Egypt and her nephew Alaa Abdel-Fattah, perhaps the country’s most high-profile activist, was imprisoned under el-Sissi. She said the opaqueness of the government’s decision-making is startling. She learned from an official’s recent interview on television that the Engineering Authority of the Armed Forces made the decision to evict the houseboat residents in 2020.
The authority is the force behind the military’s many road projects and the country’s mega-plans, including construction of a new administrative capital on Cairo’s desert outskirts. New building and development is not easy in Cairo, a city with layers upon layers of history. But Soueif says sacrificing history is not the right way to go about it.
“When you’re trying to turn Egypt into Dubai, you actually devalue it,” Soueif said, referring to the newness of one of the Middle East’s most modern capitals. “You are just destroying your assets that nobody has.”
Iklas Helmy, an 88-year-old owner of a bright blue houseboat, said she cannot imagine life elsewhere. She was born on a houseboat. She’s tried to get a new license for her houseboat — her home of the past 25 years — and was told it couldn’t be renewed and that the decision comes from very high up.
“You’re going to take my entire life away to build a cafe?” she said. Talking about it reduces her to tears.
Walking with a cane, Helmy greeted two geese who live on the riverbank next to her home.
After being featured in a number of media reports, Helmy’s case has caused some outcry. She called on the government to let her live in the boat until she dies. Her plea made it all the way to the president. In a rare televised question from the media, a reporter from the pan-Arab satellite channel Al-Hadath asked him about Helmy’s situation specifically.
El-Sissi said he appreciated Helmy’s situation but said: “We are bringing order back to the country.” He did not elaborate.
It remains unclear what will happen to some of the boats that were towed —where they will be moored or if their owners can afford the fees.
Tariq al-Murri, an Egyptian architect who specializes in issues of heritage, said the wooden houseboats are most reminiscent of those that floated on the Seine in Paris in the mid 1800s, and where some still exist. At the time, Egypt’s ruler Ismail Pasha strived to imitate everything architecturally that he had seen in France.
Al-Murri said houseboats on the Nile captured Egyptians’ imaginations and were featured in several of the country’s classic films and books. Some became locations for cabarets and bars. But now, the ones in question are largely just homes.
Al-Murri said government officials should have considered other options before forcing demolitions. He said the boats could be preserved, moved to another stretch of waterfront and turned into one of the city’s attractions.
“I think a conversation could still happen,” he said.
But there are indications that there is no room for discussion on the issue.
The television interview last month in which Soueif and other residents learned of the floating homes’ fate was given by Ayman Anwar, a government official who heads the Central Administration for the Protection of the Nile. He said boats that work in the tourism industry will be allowed to stay, but not those that are residences.
“The houseboats are like dilapidated cars from 1978 the licenses of which have been canceled by the traffic authorities,” he said. | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/world/cairos-historic-nile-river-houseboats-removed-in-govt-push/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_world | 2022-07-06T07:39:11Z | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/world/cairos-historic-nile-river-houseboats-removed-in-govt-push/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_world | true |

—
MAX IS BACK
Mets ace Max Scherzer returns to a major league mound for the first time since May 18 when the NL East leaders play at Cincinnati.
The right-hander, who turns 38 in three weeks, hasn’t pitched for the Mets since he strained the oblique muscle in his left side while throwing a pitch to the Cardinals’ Albert Pujols.
Scherzer is 5-1 with a 2.54 ERA in his first season with the Mets, who signed the three-time Cy Young Award winner to a $130 million, three-year contract during the offseason. He made a pair of starts for Double-A Binghamton on June 21 and 29, allowing four earned runs and seven hits in eight innings with 14 strikeouts and two walks.
Left-hander Nick Lodolo (1-2, 5.52), who was 10 when Scherzer made his big league debut, starts for the Reds. Cincinnati is starting three rookies in a row against the Mets, with Lodolo following Hunter Greene and preceding Graham Ashcraft.
Scherzer could be joined in the Mets rotation by Jacob deGrom by late July or early August. The two-time Cy Young Award winner hasn’t pitched in the majors since July 7 last year.
DeGrom missed the second half of 2021 with right forearm tightness and a sprained elbow, then has been sidelined this season by a stress reaction in his right scapula that caused inflammation. In his first rehab outing, deGrom struck out five of six batters and threw 18 of 24 pitches for strikes for Class A St. Lucie.
JA-MO ON A ROLL
Jameson Taillon of the New York Yankees is 9-0 with a 3.30 ERA in 14 starts since a 3-0 loss to Toronto on April 11 in his first outing this season.
Taillon starts the series opener at Pittsburgh, the team that selected him with the second overall pick in the 2010 amateur draft.
The 30-year-old right-hander was 29-24 with a 3.67 ERA in four seasons with the Pirates, who traded him to the Yankees in January 2021 for four prospects: right-handers Roansy Contreras and Miguel Yajure, infielder Maikol Escotto and outfielder Canaan Smith.
Taillon will be facing Pittsburgh for the first time.
Left-hander Jose Quintana (1-4, 3.43) starts for the Pirates. He is 0-3 with a 3.91 in nine outings since beating the Los Angeles Dodgers on May 9.
SHARP SANDY
Marlins right-hander Sandy Alcantara looks to add to his dominant first half when he faces Mike Trout and the Angels in Miami.
Alcantara (8-3, 1.95 ERA) has pitched at least seven innings in each of his last 10 starts. He’s 6-1 in that span and has allowed just three home runs.
The 26-year-old Alcantara threw a season-high 117 pitches in his last outing, a complete-game win at St. Louis.
Trout is coming off a three-game series in which he went 0 for 11 and struck out nine times as the Angels got swept in Houston. The three-time AL MVP is hitless in his last 14 at-bats overall.
REMEMBER ME?
Zack Greinke returns to Minute Maid Park to start for Kansas City against Houston.
Greinke joined the Astros at the 2019 trade deadline and started Game 7 of the World Series that fall in Houston. The 38-year-old righty also pitched for the Astros in the World Series last season.
Greinke signed with the Royals in the offseason and is 2-4 with a 4.38 ERA in 12 starts. Luis Garcia (6-5, 3.54 ERA) starts for the AL West-leading Astros.

Asian benchmarks mostly lower after tepid Wall St session
By YURI KAGEYAMA
AP Business Writer
TOKYO (AP) — Asian shares were mostly lower Wednesday after tepid trading on Wall Street amid worries about a global recession.
Major benchmarks fell across Asia. Oil prices recouped some lost ground. Analysts said markets were focusing on a variety of risks, including inflation, oil prices, moves by the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks on interest rates, political developments in Britain and worries over COVID-19.
But the basic mood appeared to be wait-and-see.
Wall Street had a weak opening after markets were closed Monday for the Independence Day holiday. The price of U.S. crude oil sank $8.93, eventually settling below $100 a barrel for the first time since early May.
On Wednesday, U.S. benchmark crude oil was up 42 cents at $99.92 per barrel. Brent crude, the international standard, gained 97 cents to $103.74 per barrel.
Market volatility reflects growing worries among investors that economies are slowing under the weight of surging inflation and sharply higher interest rates, pressures that could tip them into recession.
“Although China has had another wave of COVID, nothing new or market-related seemed to justify the severity of the move,” said Stephen Innes, managing partner at SPI Asset Management about the oil prices.
Japan’s benchmark Nikkei 225 lost 1.1% in afternoon trading to 26,134.71. Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 slipped 0.5% to 6,594.50. South Korea’s Kospi shed 1.9% to 2,297.02. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng dropped 2.4% to 21,333.26 while the Shanghai Composite slid 1.9% to 3,337.88.
Japan has parliamentary elections this coming weekend, but the expected outcome is for more stability. Prime Minister Fumio Kishida appears headed to victory amid a heavily divided and discredited opposition, polls show, despite the ruling party’s stumbling over curbing coronavirus infections, the economy and various scandals.
Stock indexes ended with meager gains on Wall Street with a late-afternoon rally led by technology companies.
The S&P 500 rose 0.2% to 3,831.39. The Nasdaq climbed 1.7% to 3,831.39. The Dow Jones Industrial Average remained in the red, losing 0.4% to 30,967.82. Small-company stocks bounced back after a downbeat start. The Russell 2000 gained 0.8% to 1,741.33.
In Britain, the FTSE 100 dropped 2.9% after two of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s most senior Cabinet ministers quit, saying they had lost confidence in Johnson’s leadership amid shifting explanations about his handling of a sexual misconduct scandal
Energy, industrials, health care and most of the 11 sectors in the S&P 500 ended in the red, despite the late rally in technology stocks, communication firms and retailers and other companies that rely on direct consumer spending.
Stocks have not bounced back from a slump that pulled the S&P 500 into a bear market last month, meaning an extended decline of 20% or more from a recent peak. The market’s performance in the first half of 2022 was the worst since the first six months of 1970.
Inflation has been squeezing businesses and consumers, tightening its grip after Russia invaded Ukraine in February. The invasion sent oil prices higher globally and sent gasoline prices in the U.S. to record highs. Consumers struggling with higher prices on everything from food to clothing are cutting back on spending.
Lockdowns in China from rising COVID-19 cases have also made supply chain problems worse.
Wall Street has been closely watching the latest economic updates for more clues on how inflation is impacting the economy and whether that could shift the Fed’s position on rate hikes. Wall Street will get a closer look at the employment market on Friday when the the government releases employment data for June.
Investors are also looking ahead to the next round of corporate earnings. Several big companies recently warned that their financial results are being squeezed by inflation, including spice and seasonings maker McCormick.
In currency trading, the U.S. dollar edged down to 135.12 Japanese yen from 135.84 yen. The euro cost $1.0260, inching down from $1.0266.

LEADING OFF: Ohtani excelling on mound, Javier an Astros ace
By The Associated Press
Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani takes a scoreless streak of 21 2/3 innings to the mound when he starts at Miami on Wednesday night. Ohtani is 7-4 with a 2.63 ERA. He has won four consecutive starts, allowing just one run in that span. He’s struck out 101 in 74 innings this year. The reigning AL MVP will pitch a day after his 28th birthday. This will be his first career pitching appearance against the Marlins, who have won six in a row. Los Angeles has dropped four straight. | https://kion546.com/sports/ap-national-sports/2022/07/05/leading-off-ohtani-excelling-on-mound-javier-an-astros-ace-2/ | 2022-07-06T07:56:03Z | https://kion546.com/sports/ap-national-sports/2022/07/05/leading-off-ohtani-excelling-on-mound-javier-an-astros-ace-2/ | false |
BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — Two United Nations peacekeepers from Egypt were killed and five others seriously wounded when their vehicle hit a landmine planted by suspected jihadis in northern Mali on Tuesday, the U.N. said.
The deadly attack comes just days after the renewal of the mandate of the U.N. Mission to Mali, known as MINUSMA.
“This morning, an armored vehicle of a MINUSMA logistics convoy hit a mine on the Tessalit-Gao road,” the mission announced in a press release.
“According to an initial report, two peacekeepers died of their injuries and five others were seriously wounded as a result of the attack,” the statement added.
“The victims are all Egyptian nationals,” a U.N. official told The Associated Press, insisting on anonymity because he is not allowed to speak to the press until the U.N. informs the families.
Ten U.N. peacekeepers have been killed in Mali since the beginning of the year.
First deployed in 2013, the mandate of the U.N. mission in Mali to help battle against Islamic extremist rebels was renewed last week although the Malian government said it will not support the mission’s aim to promote and safeguard human rights.
Russia and China abstained from the French-drafted U.N. resolution, which extends the mandate of the mission until June 30, 2023, with its current ceiling of 13,289 military personnel and 1,920 international police.
More than 270 peacekeepers have died in Mali, making it the U.N.’s deadliest peacekeeping mission, according to U.N. officials.
Mali is ruled by a military junta that seized power in August 2020. Col. Assim Goita has been named president.
Mali’s junta has grown closer to Russia, as Moscow has looked to build alliances and gain sway in Africa. The Russian Wagner Group has deployed a team of fighters in Mali.
Last week a European military task force that helped Mali’s government fight Islamic extremists formally withdrew from the West African country amid tensions with its ruling military junta.
The French military, which spearheaded the Takuba task force, announced that it had ended its work in Mali. The move was tied to France’s decision earlier this year to withdraw troops from Mali after nine years of helping Malian forces fight violent extremists who had threatened to seize power.
The European Takuba force was composed of several hundred special forces troops from 10 countries: Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, and Sweden. It aimed at training and protecting Malian combat forces. | https://who13.com/news/international-news/ap-international/2-egyptian-peacekeepers-killed-5-others-injured-in-mali/ | 2022-07-06T07:56:26Z | https://who13.com/news/international-news/ap-international/2-egyptian-peacekeepers-killed-5-others-injured-in-mali/ | true |

Amazon Prime Day is one of the biggest online shopping events of the year, so it’s an excellent time to find home goods deals. Despite the name, Prime Day runs for 48 hours, with impressive discounts on a wide range of home goods, among other products.
If you’re a member, you’re automatically eligible to shop at the event. If not, now is the ideal time to sign up for a 30-day free trial.
When is Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day 2022 falls on July 12 and 13. The first deals will go live at midnight PDT on July 12, and the sale will end at 23:59 PDT on July 13, giving you 48 hours to shop.
What home goods deals will be available on Prime Day?
It’s impossible to definitively say which specific products will go on sale on Prime Day, but you can learn the types of products to expect deals on. Plus, looking at deals from previous years, it’s possible to guess which exact items might be discounted, though it isn’t an exact science.
- Mattresses and bedding: You’ll find deals on mattresses, plus all kinds of bedding, such as pillows, comforters and sheet sets.
- Furniture: Desks, couches, nightstands, dining tables — whatever furniture you’re in the market for, you’ll find some relevant Prime Day deals.
- Storage: Storage solutions aren’t always essential, but they’re nice to have, making your home neater and more organized. You’ll find discounts on shelving, storage boxes and kitchen storage, to name just a handful of options.
- Home decor: Prime Day brings deals on a range of decorative items for homes, including wall art, plants, planters, vases and pillows.
- Kitchen items: Prices of popular kitchen items are often slashed on Prime Day. You might find deals on cookware, coffee makers, blenders and all kinds of kitchen appliances, big and small.
Should you wait for Prime Day to shop for home goods?
With Prime Day just around the corner, you might wonder whether it’s better to wait for the event or snap up any deals currently available. Ultimately, this is a judgment call. You’ll likely find the best deals on Prime Day, but there’s no guarantee which products will be available.
If you have your eye on a specific product — a Keurig K-Classic Coffee Maker, for example — and you see it reduced before Prime Day, it may be worth taking the risk and buying it. You could wait until Prime Day only to find it returns to its full price. However, if you’d be happy with any pod coffee machine, it makes sense to wait until the event so you can compare coffee machine deals and choose the best one.

LONDON – A defiant British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was battling to stay in power on Wednesday after his government was rocked by the resignation of two top ministers, who said they could no longer serve under his scandal-tarred leadership.
His first challenge is getting through Wednesday, where he faces tough questions at the weekly Prime Minister’s Questions session in Parliament, and a long-scheduled grilling by a committee of senior lawmakers.
Months of discontent over Johnson’s judgment and ethics within the governing Conservative Party erupted with the resignations of Treasury chief Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid within minutes of each other on Tuesday evening. In a scathing resignation letter, Sunak said “the public rightly expect government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously. … I believe these standards are worth fighting for and that is why I am resigning.”
Javid said the party needed “humility, grip and a new direction” but “it is clear this situation will not change under your leadership.”
Johnson quickly replaced the two ministers, promoting Nadhim Zahawi from the education department to the Treasury and installing his chief of staff, Steve Barclay, as health secretary.
But a string of resignations late Tuesday from more junior ministers — from both the liberal and right-wing branches of the Conservative Party — showed that danger to Johnson was far from over.
In the past few months, Johnson has been fined by police and slammed by an investigator’s report over lockdown-breaching parties in government during the pandemic; survived a no-confidence vote by his party in which 41% of Conservative lawmakers voted to oust him; and has seen formerly loyal lieutenants urge him to resign.
Through it all, he has vowed to carry on governing — even suggesting he wanted to stay in office until the 2030s.
The final straw for Sunak and Javid was the prime minister’s shifting explanations about his handling of a sexual misconduct scandal.
The latest scandal began last week when lawmaker Chris Pincher resigned as Conservative deputy chief whip amid complaints that he groped two men at a private club. That triggered a series of reports about past allegations leveled against Pincher and questions about why Johnson promoted him to a senior job enforcing party discipline.
Johnson’s office initially said he wasn’t aware of the previous accusations when he promoted Pincher in February. By Monday, a spokesman said Johnson knew of allegations that were “either resolved or did not progress to a formal complaint.”
When a former top civil servant in the Foreign Office said Johnson had been briefed about an allegation against Pincher in 2019, Johnson’s office changed its story again, saying the prime minister had forgotten that Pincher was the subject of an official complaint.
It was all too much for ministers who have been sent onto radio and TV to defend the government's position, only to find the position changing by the hour.
Bim Afolami, who quit as Conservative Party vice-chairman on Tuesday, said he had been willing to give Johnson the benefit of the doubt, “but I think that in the last few weeks we’ve seen that things haven’t improved. They’ve got a lot worse.”
“I think the behavior of Downing Street over the Chris Pincher affair was really appalling. And I, personally, just couldn’t think I could defend that sort of behavior any longer,” he told the BBC.
Johnson’s opponents in the party hope more Cabinet ministers will follow Sunak and Javid, though for now other top officials — including Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, Defense Secretary Ben Wallace and Home Secretary Priti Patel — are staying put.
Opponents are also trying to force another no-confidence vote over the prime minister. The existing rules require 12 months between such votes, but the rules are made by a powerful party committee — and elections for its executive are due in the next few weeks.

Senile walkback number 5 and counting Last year, Biden or his aides needed to clarify his remarks on Taiwan on at least four separate occasions. Don't hype over fantasy, China's been waiting almost 10 years for US to follow through on rhetoric over SCS construction.
the world is ignoring the western boy who cried wolf for 5 years and counting. Nobody who matters believes any of this. Last time a fake push unfortunately coincided with discovering mass graves at "schools" for Native Americans. Latest push has the sad timing with a mass shooting at a Texas elementary school. Ironic how the West's own atrocious human rights record, especially with children, keeps stealing the spotlight from their own disinformation.

Taiwan Losing Faith in U.S. Rescue After watching Ukraine, only 35% believe US would give military support, down from 65% just 6 months ago. Perhaps show them more armchair analysis spam? 🤡
Imagine watching de facto lopsided changes for China in Tibet, SCS, Xinjiang and HK, and still thinking a hot take using the same failed reused reasoning for Taiwan is a good idea. One can't even begin to entertain any of these imagined "reactions" for Taiwan unless you admit backing down on every issue prior despite the very same rhetoric. Imagine watching millions of refugees try to escape, be on an island and think "When's our turn!". 🤡
If a movie about China beating back US forces in North Korea bothers you, do NOT search "longest retreat in US history" and find out it's a movie based on real fact. https://streamable.com/s/nfdt5r. Definitely don't search - why didn't America invade North Vietnam in the Vietnam War. No connection at all.
Groups that bought into "U.S. values" rhetoric, worked for U.S. then got betrayed and left to rot: Hmong (Vietnam), Syrian rebels, Kurds (ISIS), HK rioters, Guaido (Venezuela), Afghan servicemen/translators (Taliban, who are now mocking Iwo Jima photo while wearing US military gear 😂), Ukraine (Budapest Memorandum, NATO membership)

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Seiya Suzuki homered for the second straight night as the Chicago Cubs overcame Kyle Hendricks’ early exit and defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 8-3. Hendricks left after three innings with a sore right shoulder. The right-hander threw 69 pitches, with his velocity slightly lower than usual. Chicago’s bullpen stepped up in Hendricks’ absence. Matt Swarmer, Rowan Wick and Michael Rucker combined to allow just one run over the last six innings. Suzuki’s two-run homer broke a 2-all tie in the fifth. Rowdy Tellez hit a two-run shot for the Brewers.

JACKSON, Calif. (AP) — Evacuation orders were expanded Tuesday for remote California communities near a wildfire that may have been sparked by fireworks or a barbecue on the Fourth of July in a mountainous region that’s a top tourism destination.
The Electra Fire in Sierra Nevada Gold Country broke out Monday afternoon and tripled in size to about 6.1 square miles (15.8 square kilometers). It was 5% contained Tuesday night.
The fire was making short, uphill runs, fire officials said.
“The rate of spread isn’t what it was like yesterday, but it is still spreading,” said Amador County Sheriff Gary Redman. He said firefighters were working to keep flames confined to unpopulated canyon areas.
Mandatory evacuation orders and warnings combined affected up to 700 residents in Amador County and 300 to 400 people in Calaveras County, Redman said. Evacuation centers were set up for people and animals.
The fire started at a recreation area that was packed with people, forcing 85 to 100 celebrating the holiday at a river to take shelter at a Pacific Gas & Electric Co. facility, Redman said. All were later safely evacuated.
“This was the closest I’ve ever been to a fire. It was literally within feet of us,” said Milka Mikula of Valley Springs, who had gone to the river with her husband, her 5-year-old daughter and her 1-year-old son.
They had to wait about six hours before they could finally start for home, she told KCRA-TV.
“I just wanted to get home. I just wanted to get out of there with my babies. I was shaking really, really bad for quite some time,” Mikula said.
Redman said the cause of the fire was not known, but that it started in the Vox Beach area of the North Fork Mokelumne River. He said that could suggest fireworks or a barbecue as a potential cause.
More than 100 fire engines, 1,200 firefighters and 14 helicopters were sent to the fire, which was a threat to power infrastructure, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said. The terrain was described as steep and rugged.
Cal Fire activated an incident management team for the fire. The teams “are made up of trained personnel who provide operational management and support to large-scale, expanding incidents,” Cal Fire said.
One firefighter from the local fire protection district suffered burn injuries, Redman said.
Vox Beach is about 55 miles (89 kilometers) east of Sacramento in the heart of the Sierra Nevada region that is steeped with the history of the mid-1800s Gold Rush.
Several other small fires were burning in the state.

LONDON, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- EDGE Strategy, a global leader in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I), has rebranded its offering and launched EDGE Empower, an integrated SaaS-based DE&I solution that brings the power of the latest tech, expert knowledge and experience, and independent verification and certification into a single solution.
An integral part of the launch is a new campaign to bring the EDGE Empower brand to life, with striking imagery uniting under a brand promise to help organizations deliver significant and meaningful Real. World. Change.
EDGE Empower effectively comprises four specific tools and services to support an organization in achieving DE&I success. At its core is EDGE Insights, which is rooted into the previous EDGE Strategy Tool™, providing detailed analytics of where an organization stands in relation to workplace gender and/or intersectional equity. It also provides powerful benchmarking against peers and the EDGE global Standards and identifies impactful action plans to accelerate progress.
EDGE Insights is complemented by EDGE Knowledge, giving DE&I experts practical support shaped by EDGE's thinking and real-world experience and the latest DE&I thought leadership from EDGE's Academic and Scientific Advisory Council. As well as sharing its own knowledge and insight, EDGE also empowers its customers to connect with like-minded professionals through EDGE Connections – a network of DE&I and HR professionals to support mutual learning and the collaborative exchange of ideas.
An organization's progress towards DE&I can be independently verified through EDGE Certification, carried out by third-party auditors to bring credibility both within and outside of the organization. It allows all stakeholders to see and share how the organization is making meaningful and visible DE&I change.
Aniela Unguresan, Founder of the EDGE Certified Foundation and CEO of EDGE Strategy, believes EDGE Empower has the potential to fundamentally change the DE&I landscape: "Through EDGE Empower, we are providing organizations with a solution which brings the same discipline and rigor to the topic of DE&I as they would apply for any/all of their business-critical goals," she explains.
"We provide their employees and potential employees with trusted information to empower their career choices. And we are delivering to the investor community a way of measuring DE&I in a way that can be objectively measured and tracked, benchmarked against a global standard, and get independently verified certification."
Aniela is similarly excited by the new imagery and branding: "Organizations that work with us and seek to have their DE&I progress verified are not addressing DE&I superficially," she explains.
"They are seeking to empower organizations and their HR/ DE&I professionals to craft strategies, determine priorities and define action plans that are 'real', meaningful and measurable. They are wanting to do so in their 'world', the world in which they work and live. And they are committed to delivering change that is transformational, that should not be seen as having a start, middle and end, but rather one that is part of a continuous journey."
"It is time for organizations to get real," she says, "to acknowledge that the world has moved on, that it's time to act, and in doing so we can make visible change today."

BERLIN (AP) — Germany won't achieve its targets for phasing out fossil fuels and ramping up renewable energy by 2030 with the measures currently in place, according to a think tank report released Wednesday.
The respected German Institute for Economic Research, or DIW, examined the goals that Chancellor Olaf Scholz's government set itself since coming to power last year following an election campaign in which combating climate change was one of the biggest issues.
Their economists calculated that the current roll-out of electric vehicles, solar and wind energy won't be fast enough to reach those targets.
The government's goal of putting 15 million electric cars on the road by 2030 would require 130,000 such vehicles to be registered every month — up from 30,000 at present. The speed at which solar panels are installed would need to triple compared with the rate seen in the past year, while the erection of wind turbines needs to quadruple, the report found.
“If the government doesn't want to fall behind on achieving its goals then it needs to implement concrete and far-reaching steps soon,” said Wolf-Peter Schill, an energy economist at the Berlin-based DIW. | https://www.beaumontenterprise.com/news/article/Economists-Current-measures-won-t-meet-German-17286825.php | 2022-07-06T08:32:08Z | https://www.beaumontenterprise.com/news/article/Economists-Current-measures-won-t-meet-German-17286825.php | false |
Cat Burns and Sam Smith brought their new single ‘Go’ to The Late Late Show With James Corden last week – check out the performance below.

‘Go’ reached Number Two in the UK singles chart upon its release earlier this year, and the pair came together for a live performance of the track as part of Corden’s London residency of his late-night show.
As part of the week-long residency last week, broadcasting from Freemasons’ Hall in London, other guests included President Joe Biden, Vin Diesel (Fast And Furious), Billie Eilish, Lizzo, Ed Sheeran, Jamie Dornan (Belfast), John Boyega (Star Wars), David Harbour (Stranger Things), Alanis Morissette, Sam Smith and Tessa Thompson (Thor: Love and Thunder, Westworld).
Watch Cat Burns and Sam Smith perform ‘Go’ on the show below.
Corden announced his decision to leave The Late Late Show back in April this year, revealing later that he will return to the UK from Los Angeles when the show ends in early 2023.
“This will be my last year hosting the show,” Corden said in a statement at the time. “When I started this journey, it was always going to be just that. It was going to be a journey, an adventure.
“I never saw it as my final destination, you know? And I never want this show to overstay its welcome in any way.”
Speaking to NME for a Radar interview earlier this year, Burns said she wants to “help Black queer artists” tell their story.
She said: “I think I’m part of a wave of LGBTQ+ artists that are encouraging others to be more open. We’re singing about more complex things within the themes of love and relationships, such as dating someone who’s not out yet.
“A lot of artists have started to become more comfortable telling those important stories, both lyrically and visually, which has allowed me to be more open. Personally, I want to help Black queer artists to be like, ‘OK, let me tell my truth, too.’” | https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/music/cat-burns-and-sam-smith-bring-electrifying-performance-of-go-to-corden-3262560 | 2022-07-06T08:32:34Z | https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/music/cat-burns-and-sam-smith-bring-electrifying-performance-of-go-to-corden-3262560 | true |
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Conan the Barbarian has a connection to the fourth season of Stranger Things.
In the finale, titled ‘The Piggyback’, Jim Hopper (David Harbour) picks up and wields a sword against a demogorgon inside a Russian prison.
Speaking to British GQ, actor David Harbour revealed the prop blade is the same one wielded by Schwarzenegger in the 1982 film Conan the Barbarian.
“I don’t know if you saw this, but that sword I pick up – it’s the actual prop sword they used in Conan the Barbarian,” Harbour said. “It’s the sword that Schwarzenegger swings in the movie.”
In the same episode, Hopper and Joyce Byers (Winona Ryder) also share a kiss, which Harbour described as “a bit of fan service”.
“It’s always something that Winona and I have talked about – on set riffing about what their relationship was in high school, and y’know, who they are to each other,” Harbour said. “There was always a tension between should this be consummated, or should they just be friends? And I do think it’s a bit of fan service. I think there was a real appetite for mommy and daddy to get back together again. And then once we were on that train, it seemed like an inevitability.”
Stranger Things is set to conclude with the upcoming fifth season, although show creators The Duffer Brothers have discussed potential spin-offs.
Harbour recently suggested Euphoria actor Jacob Elordi could play a younger version of Hopper, if one of the spin-offs turned out to be a prequel.
Speaking about the actor, Harbour said: “He could pull off being as handsome as I was at 20.”
In a four-star review of season four, NME wrote: “While there are some gripes to be had with the penultimate season of the show, it still packs in all the terrifying thrills you’d expect, deftly blending horror and sci-fi to maximum effect while still allowing for some laughs among the bleakness. It’s a finely-tuned formula that’s given us yet another sublime season.” | https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/tv/david-harbour-reveals-arnold-schwarzenegger-easter-egg-stranger-things-season-four-3262620 | 2022-07-06T08:35:10Z | https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/tv/david-harbour-reveals-arnold-schwarzenegger-easter-egg-stranger-things-season-four-3262620 | true |
SHENZHEN, China, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- In June 2022, Olight, a globally leading company specializing in illumination tools announced a completely new product, the Valkyrie Turbo, a First LEP Rail-mounted Light for both short and mid-length builds. Its powerful tight beam enables users to clearly illuminate and lock onto the target in the farthest recesses of night.
With an all-new, strikingly bright LEP light output with 70,225 Candela, the Valkyrie Turbo features a 530-meter maximum throw distance, far more than most LED lights can ever achieve, and with a much brighter beam with almost no spill.
But what is LEP for? The laser light of LEP (Laser Excited Phosphor) features excellent directionality and high intensity, emitting highly concentrated light beam and producing extremely high brightness. Therefore, users can see the target illuminated more intensely, more clearly, and in greater detail to help them make positive identification and enable accurate target acquisition.
Compared to the beam color from the previous Odin Turbo for long-range builds (unveiled in 2021 as Olight's first LEP product) the Valkyrie Turbo emits a much whiter beam, and the width of its beam angle is twice the size of the Odin Turbo. The laser light from Valkyrie Turbo is approved with Risk Group 2 of Optical Biosafety IEC 62471 certification and Class 1 of laser class IEC 60825 certification.
As one of the innovative giants in the flashlight industry, Olight always stands behind its products and commits to continuous innovation in R&D to provide superior lighting experiences for its users. With the launch of the Valkyrie Turbo, the extraordinary innovative concept of using a high-intensity LEP on short builds has been first applied to the market. On the strength of 15-year industry-proven experience and technological breakthroughs, Olight believes that the cutting-edge LEP technology will definitely bring increasingly practical value to users. Stay tuned.

Israeli army kills Palestinian in West Bank arrest raid
JERUSALEM (AP) - The Israeli military said it shot and killed a Palestinian man during an arrest raid near the city of Jenin in the occupied West Bank on Wednesday.
The army said that during one of a series of raids carried out across the Palestinian territory, its troops fired at a suspect who attempted to escape arrest in the village of Jaba.
"The force gave medical treatment to the suspect, but later pronounced him dead," the army said. It said the incident was under investigation.
The statement said the army was there to arrest suspects involved in terror operations without elaborating.
The Palestinian Health Ministry issued a statement saying it received confirmation of the death of Rafiq Riyad Ghannam from the agency that coordinates affairs with Israel. Wafa, the official Palestinian news agency, said the 20-year-old man was severely wounded during clashes in the village.
Ghannam was the second Palestinian from Jaba killed in recent days. On Sunday the Palestinian Foreign Ministry said 19-year-old Kamel Abdallah Alwaneh died a day after he was shot by Israeli troops. The army said soldiers came under attack "during routine security activity near the town of Jaba" and shot a man suspected of throwing a firebomb.
The Israeli military has carried out near-daily raids in Palestinian towns and villages in the West Bank following a series of deadly attacks by Palestinians earlier this year that killed 19 Israelis, with several of the attackers coming from the Jenin area.
Dozens of Palestinians have been killed in these Israeli army raids. Most of the dead were alleged to have opened fire on Israeli forces or hurled stones or firebombs at them. The dead also include at least two apparent passersby.
Israel captured the West Bank in the 1967 Mideast war and the Palestinians seek it as the heartland of a future state. Israel considers the West Bank as the biblical and historical heartland of the Jewish people.
Almost half a million Israeli settlers live in dozens of West Bank settlements scattered across the territory, alongside around 3 million Palestinians who live under Israeli military rule.
The Palestinians and much of the international community consider Israel´s West Bank settlements a violation of international law and an obstacle to a peaceful resolution of the decades-long conflict. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-10986707/Israeli-army-kills-Palestinian-West-Bank-arrest-raid.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-07-06T08:50:01Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-10986707/Israeli-army-kills-Palestinian-West-Bank-arrest-raid.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false |
Mexican navy sets hooks for illegal nets in bid to help vaquita porpoise
The Mexican navy has begun a controversial plan to drop concrete blocks onto the bottom of the Gulf of California to snag illegal nets that drown critically endangered vaquita marina porpoises.
As few as eight of the tiny, elusive porpoises remain in the Gulf, also known as the Sea of Cortez. It is the only place they live, and they cannot be captured and bred in captivity.
Vaquitas become trapped and drown in gill nets fishermen set illegally for totoaba, a fish whose swim bladder is a delicacy in China and sells for thousands of dollars per pound.
The Mexican government has largely abandoned efforts to keep small fishing boats out of a 110-square-mile “zero tolerance” area near San Felipe, Baja California, where the few remaining vaquita have been seen.
Environmentalists said the plan to sink 193 concrete blocks was approved with no public consultation and expressed concern that the metal hooks attached to the blocks may accumulate remnants of nets that could continue to entangle and drown sea life.
“This is a total surprise, because the environmental impact statement was approved in record time, in six weeks. It wasn’t opened to public comment,” said Alex Olivera, the Mexico representative for the Centre for Biological Diversity.
A vaquita porpoise (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration)
Mexico’s environment department acknowledged there had been no public consultation because nobody had requested one. The department has become known for quickly signing off on government projects.
Doubts about the plan abound. It would scatter one block, with a metal hook attacked, every kilometre over the zero tolerance area. It is not clear how, or whether, any snagged nets would be recovered from underwater.
“A net can be snagged on these hooks, and we don’t know, we’re talking about nets that are hundreds of yards long, so we don’t know if a net snagged down there might be a double-edged sword, and trap vaquitas,” said Mr Olivera.
Abandoned nets, known as “ghost nets”, can continue killing marine life for years.
Another expert said the plan might discourage the illegal fishermen by causing them to lose nets to the snags.
But he added that it would crucial for the navy to regularly clear out any snagged nets, “or other species could be killed down there”.
In a statement announcing the plan, the navy made a vague mention of “recovering detained nets”. In practice, it would probably require divers to descend and manually cut nets off each of the 193 blocks every few days.
Given the defiance of the fishermen and the lucrative nature of the illegal trade in dried totoaba bladders, there is also no guarantee that fishermen might not mark – either physically or with GPS – the location of the blocks and fish around them.
Last year, the Mexican government abandoned the policy of keeping fishing boats out of the “zero tolerance” zone in the upper Gulf.
It then introduced a sliding scale of punishments if more than 60 fishing boats are seen in the area on multiple occasions.
Mr Olivera expressed doubts. “They can’t be checking these blocks every day,” he said.
Earlier this year, the United States filed the first trade-based environmental complaint under the US-Mexico-Canada trade pact, arguing that Mexico is failing to protect the species.
Mexico has agreed to an investigation. Under the treaty, which took effect in 2020, the complaint could lead to trade sanctions. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-10986591/Mexican-navy-sets-hooks-illegal-nets-bid-help-vaquita-porpoise.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-07-06T08:50:20Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-10986591/Mexican-navy-sets-hooks-illegal-nets-bid-help-vaquita-porpoise.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true |

A decade after retiring from the NHL following 14 great seasons on the ice, Black hockey hero Mike Grier is making monumental moves once again as the first African American GM in the National Hockey League’s history.
LIKE US ON FACEBOOK. FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM & TWITTER. SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE.
Announced earlier today during a full press event with family in tow (seen above), Grier confirmed that he’ll be joining his former home with the San Jose Sharks as the California hockey franchise’s new General Manager. “Really excited to get to work and be back in the Bay Area,” the former right wing announced directly to Sharks fans via Instagram, also adding, “I know there’s been lots of ups and downs, but I’m ready to work hard and get at it and get this thing back on the tracks. We’re going to start winning some games in the Shark Tank and get it going again. See you soon!”
More on this epic Black first below, via ESPN:
“‘It’s something I’m extremely proud of,’ Grier said of being the league’s first Black GM. ‘I realized there was a responsibility that comes with the territory but I’m up for it [with] how I carry myself and how the organization carries themselves. … For me, my job is to do the best I can for the San Jose Sharks organization, and if I do that, hopefully it opens the door to give other opportunities to other minorities to get in front-office positions and maybe lead a team down the road as well.’
It was Grier’s ability to do just that which drew San Jose’s interest — a point team president Jonathan Becher wanted to make clear while also celebrating an historic achievement.
‘We hired the best general manager available,’ Becher said. ‘Mike just happens to be Black. The focus was on finding the best candidate for the job.’”

It’s worth noting that Grier already made Black history during his time playing as the first African-American player in NHL history to exclusively train in the U.S. He joins the GM ranks with his brother, Chris Grier, who’s been General Manager for the NFL’s Miami Dolphins since 2016.
Congratulations again, Mike Grier! Peep a few celebratory messages from his old teammates below:

LONDON, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Barings, one of the world's leading investment managers, today announced the successful completion of fundraising of its European Private Loan Fund and associated vehicles, attracting total investable capital of €7 billion. Barings has garnered interest from a global investor base, a mix of public and private pension funds, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds and family offices. Barings saw support from both new and existing investors with more than two thirds of commitments raised from investors in prior funds.
The €7 billion raised exceeded Barings' initial target. The European investment team has deployed €6 billion in the last 18 months across more than 80 transactions, resulting in the third vintage being over 50% invested.
"In these tumultuous times, Barings European Private Debt strategies offer investors exposure to a highly diversified pan-European strategy. Our clear and consistent investment philosophy, disciplined approach, and focus on defensive companies that have a fundamental reason to exist resonated with our clients. We will continue to endeavour to deliver our clients strong performance and consistency in these challenging times," said Adam Wheeler, Managing Director and Co-Head of Barings Global Private Finance Group.
This successful fundraise brings Barings' total committed capital in Europe to €12.8 billion with €10 billion invested. "Since joining Barings over 15 years ago, we have completed over 300 private market loan transactions in Europe. We have spent many years creating a leading European Private Debt platform, serving both our investors and private equity customers. Whilst there have been many notable milestones on the way, this fundraising cycle is a clear highlight and is attributed to our team across Europe who have worked hard to make this happen," said Mark Wilton, Managing Director and Co-Portfolio Manager for Barings European Private Finance Group.
"We firmly believe a disciplined approach and strong credit selection can continue to offer investors attractive, through-the-cycle, risk-adjusted returns. As more investors turn to private credit, scale, relationships and incumbency have become increasingly critical to accessing and evaluating deal flow. At Barings, we believe our local presence in Europe, as well as our ability to leverage our large global team for cross-border deal flow, leaves us well positioned," said Ian Fowler, Managing Director and Co-Head of Barings Global Private Finance Group. The successful European capital raise follows the $9.5 billion closed in 2021 for the firm's North American Private Loan Fund II and associated accounts.
With more than 90 investment professionals focused solely on private finance, and a presence across North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, Barings leverages the scale and resources of its team to source private credit investment opportunities across developed markets worldwide. The firm has a long track record in the space, lending to private equity sponsor-backed companies for more than 30 years. As a principal investor for its parent company, Barings also invests its own capital alongside its clients in most transactions. Over the last 12 months, Barings has invested $14 billion globally in private credit.
About Barings
Barings is a $371+ billion* global investment manager sourcing differentiated opportunities and building long-term portfolios across public and private fixed income, real estate, and specialist equity markets.

Women's Hockey World Cup 2022: India eyes win vs New Zealand for direct quarterfinals spot
India has drawn both its matches in the Women's Hockey World Cup 2022 so far. It desperately needs a win against New Zealand to stay in the hunt for a direct quarterfinals berth.

The Indian women's hockey team has been lacklustre so far and would need to tick all boxes in its final Pool B match against New Zealand on Thursday to stay in contention for sealing a direct quarterfinals berth in the 2022 Women's Hockey World Cup. The Indians, who finished fourth in the Tokyo Olympics last year, drew their opening games 1-1 against England and China in the tournament so far. It is currently placed third in the group table, a couple of points below China and NZ. As per the tournament format, the top four sides from each group will qualify for the quarterfinals directly, while the second and third-placed teams will engage in the crossovers.

In the crossovers, the second-placed team of Group A will clash against the third of Group D and vice versa, while the second of Group B will face take on the third of Group C and vice versa for the remaining four quarters spots. However, given India's performance in the first couple of games, it won't be accessible.

Although the Indian defence has been impressive so far, as it denied England a single penalty corner in the opening game, the forward line-up and midfield performance were sloppy. Except for Vandana Katariya, who has scored two goals for the side in the competition, no other striker has impressed, with the likes of Lalremsiami, Sharmila Devi and Navneet Kaur performing under-par.

While the Indians did create chances, they failed to capitalise on them. The midfield was rusty against China and needs to up its ante. The penalty corner conversion rate has also been concerning for chief coach Janekke Schopman, as India has scored just a couple from 12, while it came indirectly via Vandana.

Gurjit Kaur must polish her skills and upgrade her conversion rate if India needs to progress further in the tournament. Regarding rankings, there is hardly anything to separate the two, as NZ is ranked eighth while India is a rung below. The Black Sticks women, however, would be confident following their win against England. Both sides would have a good idea about the required equations, as China and England will be playing earlier on Thursday.

SKOPJE, North Macedonia (AP) — Police in North Macedonia said 47 officers were injured, two of them seriously, after a group of mostly young people threw stones, metal bars, eggs and Molotov cocktails at the parliament building in the capital late Tuesday.
Thousands of people have protested nightly in Skopje since the weekend over a French proposal for a compromise aimed at lifting objections by neighboring Bulgaria to North Macedonia joining the European Union.
Police said 11 protesters were detained Tuesday night. Prime Minister Dimitar Kovacevski condemned the attacks on the police, saying violence cannot be justified. Another protest was planned for Wednesday evening.
Bulgaria, which as an EU member has veto powers over new members, wants North Macedonia to formally recognize its language has Bulgarian roots, to recognize a Bulgarian minority in the country and to quash “hate speech” against Bulgaria. Many in North Macedonia say acquiescing would undermine their national identity.
North Macedonia’s president, Stevo Pendarovski, and the government back the proposed French deal, which calls for the country to acknowledge in its constitution the existence of an ethnic Bulgarian minority. It would also provide for regular reviews on how the bilateral dispute is being addressed, which could potentially hamper North Macedonia’s future course toward EU membership.
Bulgaria has already formally accepted the French proposal, which now requires the backing of North Macedonia’s parliament. Lawmakers are set to convene later this week.
The center-right main opposition party VMRO-DPMNE, many international law experts and civic organizations counter that the French proposal favors Bulgarian demands which dispute Macedonian views of regional history, language, identity and heritage.
North Macedonia has been a candidate for EU membership for 17 years. The country received a green light in 2020 to begin accession talks, but no date for the start of the negotiations has been set.

LONDON, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Barings, one of the world's leading investment managers, today announced the successful completion of fundraising of its European Private Loan Fund and associated vehicles, attracting total investable capital of €7 billion. Barings has garnered interest from a global investor base, a mix of public and private pension funds, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds and family offices. Barings saw support from both new and existing investors with more than two thirds of commitments raised from investors in prior funds.
The €7 billion raised exceeded Barings' initial target. The European investment team has deployed €6 billion in the last 18 months across more than 80 transactions, resulting in the third vintage being over 50% invested.
"In these tumultuous times, Barings European Private Debt strategies offer investors exposure to a highly diversified pan-European strategy. Our clear and consistent investment philosophy, disciplined approach, and focus on defensive companies that have a fundamental reason to exist resonated with our clients. We will continue to endeavour to deliver our clients strong performance and consistency in these challenging times," said Adam Wheeler, Managing Director and Co-Head of Barings Global Private Finance Group.
This successful fundraise brings Barings' total committed capital in Europe to €12.8 billion with €10 billion invested. "Since joining Barings over 15 years ago, we have completed over 300 private market loan transactions in Europe. We have spent many years creating a leading European Private Debt platform, serving both our investors and private equity customers. Whilst there have been many notable milestones on the way, this fundraising cycle is a clear highlight and is attributed to our team across Europe who have worked hard to make this happen," said Mark Wilton, Managing Director and Co-Portfolio Manager for Barings European Private Finance Group.
"We firmly believe a disciplined approach and strong credit selection can continue to offer investors attractive, through-the-cycle, risk-adjusted returns. As more investors turn to private credit, scale, relationships and incumbency have become increasingly critical to accessing and evaluating deal flow. At Barings, we believe our local presence in Europe, as well as our ability to leverage our large global team for cross-border deal flow, leaves us well positioned," said Ian Fowler, Managing Director and Co-Head of Barings Global Private Finance Group. The successful European capital raise follows the $9.5 billion closed in 2021 for the firm's North American Private Loan Fund II and associated accounts.
With more than 90 investment professionals focused solely on private finance, and a presence across North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, Barings leverages the scale and resources of its team to source private credit investment opportunities across developed markets worldwide. The firm has a long track record in the space, lending to private equity sponsor-backed companies for more than 30 years. As a principal investor for its parent company, Barings also invests its own capital alongside its clients in most transactions. Over the last 12 months, Barings has invested $14 billion globally in private credit.

XR applications, AI/ML-driven intelligent RAN, system-level network energy savings are key features in 5G-Advanced to bring the mass market monetary opportunities for operators and lead to a long-term sustainable future
LONDON, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The 3GPP approved the Release-18 package in December 2021, making the official start of 5G-Advanced with the planned freeze date in December 2023. Global technology intelligence firm ABI Research expects that 75% of 5G base stations will be upgraded to 5G-Advanced by 2030, five years after the estimated commercial launch. 5G-Advanced will bring continuous enhancements on mobile network capabilities and use case-based support to help mobile operators with 5G commercialization, long-term development of Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML), and network energy savings for a fully automated network and a sustainable future.
"In 5G-Advanced, Extended Reality (XR) applications will promise monetary opportunities to both the consumer markets with use cases like gaming, video streaming, as well as enterprise opportunities such as remote working and virtual training. Therefore, XR applications are a major focus of 3GPP working groups to significantly improve XR-specific traffic performance and power consumption for the mass market adoption," explains Gu Zhang, 5G & Mobile Network Infrastructure Principal Analyst at ABI Research. "Another noticeable feature is AI/ML which will become essential for future networks given predictive rapid growth in 5G network usage and use case complexities which can't be managed by legacy optimization approaches with presumed models. System-level network energy saving is also a critical aspect as operators need to reduce the deployment cost but assure network performance for various use cases."
The upgrade of 5G network infrastructure is expected to be faster in the consumer market than enterprises. ABI Research forecasts that 75% of 5G base stations will be upgraded to 5G-Advanced, while in the enterprise market the ratio is about half. 5G-Advanced devices per radio base station will quickly gain traction around 2024 to 2026 at the early stage of the commercial launch because devices will grow more aggressively than network deployments over the period.
"The commercial launch of 5G-Advanced will take two or three years, but the competition has already started," Zhang points out. "Taking AI/ML development as an example, industrial leaders such as Ericson, Huawei, Nokia, ZTE, and Qualcomm have trialed their solutions with mobile operators across the world. Ongoing development in this area will continue to bring improvements on traffic throughputs, network coverage, power saving, anomaly detection etc."
Different from previous generations, 5G creates an ecosystem for vertical markets such as automotive, energy, food and agriculture, city management, government, healthcare, manufacturing, and public transportation. "The influence on the domestic economy from the telco players will be more significant than before and that trend will continue for 5G-Advanced onward. Network operators and vendors should keep close to the regulators and make sure all parties involved grow together when the time-to-market arrives," Zhang concludes.
These findings are from ABI Research's 5G-Advanced and the Road to 6G application analysis report. This report is part of the company's 5G & Mobile Network Infrastructure research service, which includes research, data, and ABI Insights. Application Analysis reports present in-depth analysis on key market trends and factors for a specific technology.

LONDON, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- EDGE Strategy, a global leader in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I), has rebranded its offering and launched EDGE Empower, an integrated SaaS-based DE&I solution that brings the power of the latest tech, expert knowledge and experience, and independent verification and certification into a single solution.
An integral part of the launch is a new campaign to bring the EDGE Empower brand to life, with striking imagery uniting under a brand promise to help organizations deliver significant and meaningful Real. World. Change.
EDGE Empower effectively comprises four specific tools and services to support an organization in achieving DE&I success. At its core is EDGE Insights, which is rooted into the previous EDGE Strategy Tool™, providing detailed analytics of where an organization stands in relation to workplace gender and/or intersectional equity. It also provides powerful benchmarking against peers and the EDGE global Standards and identifies impactful action plans to accelerate progress.
EDGE Insights is complemented by EDGE Knowledge, giving DE&I experts practical support shaped by EDGE's thinking and real-world experience and the latest DE&I thought leadership from EDGE's Academic and Scientific Advisory Council. As well as sharing its own knowledge and insight, EDGE also empowers its customers to connect with like-minded professionals through EDGE Connections – a network of DE&I and HR professionals to support mutual learning and the collaborative exchange of ideas.
An organization's progress towards DE&I can be independently verified through EDGE Certification, carried out by third-party auditors to bring credibility both within and outside of the organization. It allows all stakeholders to see and share how the organization is making meaningful and visible DE&I change.
Aniela Unguresan, Founder of the EDGE Certified Foundation and CEO of EDGE Strategy, believes EDGE Empower has the potential to fundamentally change the DE&I landscape: "Through EDGE Empower, we are providing organizations with a solution which brings the same discipline and rigor to the topic of DE&I as they would apply for any/all of their business-critical goals," she explains.
"We provide their employees and potential employees with trusted information to empower their career choices. And we are delivering to the investor community a way of measuring DE&I in a way that can be objectively measured and tracked, benchmarked against a global standard, and get independently verified certification."
Aniela is similarly excited by the new imagery and branding: "Organizations that work with us and seek to have their DE&I progress verified are not addressing DE&I superficially," she explains.
"They are seeking to empower organizations and their HR/ DE&I professionals to craft strategies, determine priorities and define action plans that are 'real', meaningful and measurable. They are wanting to do so in their 'world', the world in which they work and live. And they are committed to delivering change that is transformational, that should not be seen as having a start, middle and end, but rather one that is part of a continuous journey."
"It is time for organizations to get real," she says, "to acknowledge that the world has moved on, that it's time to act, and in doing so we can make visible change today."

The Loop: Daniel Johns avoids jail, cargo ship crew rescued, Boris Johnson faces leadership questions, banks pass on rate rise
Hello, it's Wednesday, July 6. Here's what you need to get caught up on today's news.
One thing to know: Daniel Johns has avoided jail for a drink-driving crash
Here are the facts:
- The former Silverchair frontman was handed a 10-month intensive corrections order to be served in the community.
- He was disqualified from driving for seven months and ordered to fit an alcohol-reading interlock device to his car for 24 months.
- Johns was charged with high-range drink driving in March after he drove into an oncoming lane on the highway, crashing into a van with two people inside.
- Johns returned a blood alcohol reading three times the legal limit.
- The 43-year-old entered rehabilitation for four weeks after the crash and the court was told he had not touched alcohol since.
- In sentencing, the magistrate said Johns was best served to continue with psychiatric treatment in the community.
We heard a lot about the weather situation in NSW
First up: The bulk carrier and its 21 crew stranded off the coast of Sydney has been rescued and towed to shore after several failed rescue attempts.
The ship lost power on Monday in severe weather conditions, and attempts to fly the crew out via helicopter had to be abandoned.
Rescue crews had to wait for conditions to ease, but it wasn't until this afternoon that four tug boats were able to tow the ship to Port Botany for repairs.
Meanwhile: Residents on the Mid North Coast are being warned about the chance of dangerous flash-flooding, as heavy rain continues over much of the region.
The rain has eased in Sydney but heavy falls are predicted further north, particularly between Bellingen, Nowendoc and Foster.
Premier Dominic Perrottet said there was a "significant risk" of flash flooding at Singleton, where the Hunter River could peak at 13.8 metres.
And ICYMI: The federal government also announced a direct cash payment of up to $1,000 would be made available to flood-affected residents.
The Disaster Recovery Payment is $1,000 per adult and $400 per child and will be available to claim from 2pm tomorrow.
The news Australia is searching for
- Boris Johnson: The British Prime Minister is facing questions over his leadership after multiple resignations from ministers who say he's not fit to govern. Mr Johnson's finance and health secretaries have quit, along with several junior ministers, and a growing number of politicians in his party say it's time for him to step down.
- Elizabeth Struhs: The eight-year-old girl was found dead in her Toowoomba home in January after she was allegedly denied medical care for type 1 diabetes for about six days. Her parents, as well as a dozen other members of a religious group, have been charged with murder over her death.
News you might have missed
- The Commonwealth Bank, ANZ, NAB and Macquarie Bank have passed on the Reserve Bank's latest Big Four to pass on rate riseto customers in full.
The Prime Minister of Solomon Islands wants China to play a permanent role training his police. Australia has always been the major provider of police training in Solomon Islands, and senior Australian officials have publicly expressed their unease about the growing cooperation.
One more thing: Banks are passing on the latest rate rise
Australia's big four banks have announced they'll pass on the latest Reserve Bank interest rate increase to borrowers in full:
- NAB, ANZ, Westpac and the Commonwealth Bank will lift home-loan variable interest rates by half a percentage point.
- NAB, ANZ and CBA will pass on the changes from July 15, and Westpac from July 20.
- Other big banks like Macquarie Bank will also pass on the full 50 basis points to home-loan customers.
That's it for now
We'll be back tomorrow with more.

REMINGTON, Va. (AP) — For years, there’s been a cardinal rule for flying civilian drones: Keep them within your line of sight. Not just because it’s a good idea — it’s also the law.
But some drones have recently gotten permission to soar out of their pilots’ sight. They can now inspect high-voltage power lines across the forested Great Dismal Swamp in Virginia. They’re tracking endangered sea turtles off Florida’s coast and monitoring seaports in the Netherlands and railroads from New Jersey to the rural West.
Aviation authorities in the U.S. and elsewhere are preparing to relax some of the safeguards they imposed to regulate a boom in off-the-shelf consumer drones over the past decade. Businesses want simpler rules that could open your neighborhood’s skies to new commercial applications of these low-flying machines, although privacy advocates and some airplane and balloon pilots remain wary.
For now, a small but growing group of power companies, railways and delivery services like Amazon are leading the way with special permission to fly drones “beyond visual line of sight.” As of early July, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration had approved 230 such waivers — one of them to Virginia-based Dominion Energy for inspecting its network of power plants and transmission lines.
“This is the first step of what everybody’s expecting with drones,” said Adam Lee, Dominion’s chief security officer. “The first time in our nation’s history where we’ve now moved out into what I think everyone’s expecting is coming.”
That expectation — of small drones with little human oversight delivering packages, assessing home insurance claims or buzzing around on nighttime security patrols — has driven the FAA’s work this year to craft new safety guidelines meant to further integrate drones into the national airspace.
The FAA said it is still reviewing how it will roll out routine operations enabling some drones to fly beyond visual line of sight, although it it has signaled that the permissions will be reserved for commercial applications, not hobbyists.
“Our ultimate goal is you shouldn’t need a waiver for this process at all. It becomes an accepted practice,” said Adam Bry, CEO of California drone-maker Skydio, which is supplying its drones to Dominion, railroad company BNSF and other customers with permission to fly beyond line of sight.
“The more autonomous the drones become, the more they can just be instantly available anywhere they could possibly be useful,” Bry said.
Part of that involves deciding how much to trust that drones won’t crash into people or other aircraft when their operators aren’t looking. Other new rules will require drones to carry remote identification — like an electronic license plate — to track their whereabouts. And in the aftermath of Russia’s war in Ukraine — where both sides have used small consumer drones to target attacks — the White House has been pushing a parallel effort to counter the potential malicious use of drones in the U.S.
At a gas-fired plant in Remington, Virginia, which helps power some of Washington’s suburbs, a reporter with The Associated Press watched in June as Dominion Energy drone pilots briefly lost visual line of sight of their inspection drone as it flew around the backside of a large fuel tank and the top of a smoke stack.
That wouldn’t have been legally possible without Dominion’s recently approved FAA waiver. And it wouldn’t have been technically possible without advancements in collision-avoidance technology that are enabling drones to fly closer to buildings.
Previously, “you would have to erect scaffolding or have people go in with a bucket truck,” said Nate Robie, who directs the drone program at Dominion. “Now you can go in on a 20-minute flight.”
Not everyone is enthused about the pending rules. Pilots of hot air balloons and other lightweight aircraft warn that crashes will follow if the FAA allows largely autonomous delivery drones the right of way at low altitudes.
“These drones cannot see where they are flying and are blind to us,” said a June call to action from the Balloon Federation of America.
Broader concerns come from civil liberties groups that say protecting people’s privacy should be a bigger priority.
“There is a greater chance that you’ll have drones flying over your house or your backyard as these beyond-visual-line-of-sight drone operations increase,” said Jeramie Scott, a senior counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center who sat on the FAA’s advisory group working to craft new drone rules. “It’ll be much harder to know who to complain to.”
EPIC and other groups dissented from the advisory group’s early recommendations and are calling for stronger privacy and transparency requirements — such as an app that could help people identify the drones above them and what data they are collecting.
“If you want to fly beyond visual line of sight, especially if you are commercial, the public has a right to know what you’re flying, what data you are collecting,” said Andrés Arrieta, director of consumer privacy engineering at the Electronic Frontier Foundation. “It seems like such a low bar.”

Hartford Courant (TNS)
A new Yale study has found that COVID-19 will eventually transition to endemic status possibly within two years, according to the university.
The researchers used rats, which, like humans, “are also susceptible to coronaviruses,” to help study when and how COVID-19 might become endemic, according to the university.
“By collecting data on coronaviral reinfection rates among rats, (researchers) were able to model the potential trajectory of COVID-19,” the university said.
The study was published Tuesday in the journal .
The university said in a statement that animals such as pigs and chickens “live with endemic coronaviruses, too, and a key factor identified in the spread of animal and human coronaviruses alike is their tendency to evoke what’s known as non-sterilizing immunity.”
“It means that initially there is fairly good immunity, but relatively quickly that wanes,” , a professor of comparative medicine at Yale School of Medicine and senior author of the study, said, in the statement. “And so even if an animal or a person has been vaccinated or infected, they will likely become susceptible again.”
The university said Zeiss and her colleagues studied the way a coronavirus similar to one that causes the common cold in humans was transmitted through rat populations.
“The team modeled the exposure scenario to resemble human exposures in the United States, where a portion of the population is vaccinated against COVID-19 and where people continue to face natural exposure to SARS-CoV-2,” the statement said. “They also reproduced the different types of exposure experienced by people in the U.S., with some animals exposed through close contact with an infected rat (high risk of infection) and others exposed by being placed in a cage once inhabited by an infected rat (low risk of infection).
“Infected animals contracted an upper respiratory tract infection and then recovered. After three to four months, the rats were then reorganized and re-exposed to the virus,” the statement said. “The rates of reinfection showed that natural exposure yielded a mix of immunity levels, with those exposed to more virus through close contact having stronger immunity, and those placed in a contaminated cage (and therefore exposed to lower amounts of the virus) having higher rates of reinfection.”
According to Zeiss, the study showed “with natural infection, some individuals will develop better immunity than others. People also need vaccination, which is offered through a set dose and generates predictable immunity. But with both vaccination and natural exposure, the population accumulates broad immunity that pushes the virus toward endemic stability.”
The university said she and her team “then used this data to inform mathematical models, finding that the median time it could take for SARS-CoV-2 to become endemic in the United States is 1,437 days, or just under four years from the start of the pandemic in March 2020,” but also noted this is the median time predicted by the model, and it could longer to reach endemic stage nor did it account for mutations that “could make SARS-CoV-2 more harmful.”
After it reaches endemic phase, according to the model, 15.4% of the population would be susceptible to infection at any given time, according to the university.
“The virus is constantly going to be circulating,” Zeiss said, also in the statement. So it will be important to keep more vulnerable groups in mind: “We can’t assume that once we reach the endemic state that everybody is safe.”
“Coronaviruses are very unpredictable, so there could be a mutation that makes it more pathogenic,” said Zeiss. “The more likely scenario, though, is that we see an increase in transmissibility and probable decrease in pathogenicity.” That means the virus would be easily transmitted between people but less likely to cause severe illness, much like the common cold, according to the university.
The university also noted endemic stability in the United States depends on “what happens to the virus elsewhere.”
“We are one global community,” Zeiss said. “We don’t know where else these mutations are going to arise. Until we reach endemic stability around the entire globe, we are vulnerable here to having our U.S. endemic stability disrupted by introduction of a new variant.
The study was funded by the National Science Foundation.

WASHINGTON — Carlos Santana reportedly collapsed while performing on stage near Detroit Tuesday, according to multiple reports.
Billboard writer Gary Graff, who was at the concert, first reported the news around 10 p.m. The show reportedly began at around 7 p.m.
"@SantanaCarlos just collapsed onstage at @PineKnobMusic. Being treated as I type," he wrote.
Santana was performing at the Pine Knob Music Theater, an outdoor amphitheater in Clarkston, Michigan, about 40 miles north of Detroit.
Graff said on Twitter that Santana was taken off stage on a stretcher about 20 minutes after collapsing. The guitarist and singer reportedly waved to the crowd as he was carried off.
No word on Santana's condition was immediately available Tuesday night, but he was taken to the hospital
Another attendee, Roop Raj — a Detroit news anchor — posted a photo of what appears to be Santana being checked out by medics.
“Medical personnel on stage. Crowd asked to pray for him because of a ‘serious medical’ issue,” Raj wrote.
The 74-year-old musician was performing as part of his Miraculous Supernatural 2022 Tour, along with Earth, Wind & Fire, to promote his 26th studio album, "Blessings and Miracles," which was released in 2021.
Santana is scheduled to be back on stage Wednesday in Burgettstown, PA. It's unclear if his medical troubles will keep him from performing.
Earlier in the year, Santana had to cancel weekend shows at The House of Blues in Las Vegas because he and other members of his band had tested positive for COVID-19. After recovering, he continued with the tour. | https://www.wtsp.com/article/news/nation-world/santana-collapses-on-stage/507-1936d364-c63e-4569-bbd6-10a068906fc1 | 2022-07-06T09:35:47Z | https://www.wtsp.com/article/news/nation-world/santana-collapses-on-stage/507-1936d364-c63e-4569-bbd6-10a068906fc1 | true |

Police: More than 50 shots fired at cookout; 2 kids hurt
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - Police say more than 50 shots were fired at a Fourth of July cookout, leaving at least three people, including two children, injured.
Deonte Edmonds lives close to where the shooting happened at around 7 p.m. Monday in the parking lot of the Arlington Village Shopping Center in Indianapolis. He was just driving by when he noticed the families desperate for help.
“Kids running, families running, more cars pulling up, family members trying to figure out exactly what was going on,” Edmonds said.
Police say an 8-year-old girl and a 10-year-old boy were inside the bounce house when they got caught in the middle of gunfire. They were taken to the hospital in critical condition.
Officers say a 28-year-old man was also shot and listed in critical condition.
“It does something to me because it’s like here is a family that is trying to celebrate the Fourth, that’s out here to have fun, that’s out here to do a barbeque, and to have someone to come and start shooting, it’s definitely heartbreaking,” Edmonds said.
Police called the shooting an unprovoked attack during which more than 50 shots were fired.
“I know there’s always been guns. There’s always been violence, but at one point in time, there was a time when you didn’t wake up every day and see that somebody had been shot,” Edmonds said.
Police are not able to release any information regarding a possible suspect at this time. The investigation is ongoing.
No arrests have been made yet.
