XRAY investors may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. via email at jlevi@levikorsinsky.com or by telephone at (212) 363-7500.

Capital Impact Partners, CDC Small Business Finance, and Ventures Lending Technologies bring more than 80 years of combined small business and community development experience to the Momentus Capital family of organizations.
ARLINGTON, Va. and SAN DIEGO, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The financial sector can play a greater role in helping build inclusive and equitable communities — by providing people with access to the capital and opportunities they deserve. Opening up these doors is fundamental for local leaders and entrepreneurs to contribute not only to their communities, but to our shared economy.
In a first-of-its-kind merger, Capital Impact Partners, CDC Small Business Finance, and Ventures Lending Technologies are coming together as Momentus Capital to create the transformational change needed in the financial sector to achieve this vision.
For too long, many people — especially people of color — have been overlooked, ignored, or systematically excluded from the current system. Residents from all walks of life deserve to have equitable access to the things that contribute to their health and wealth: a vibrant local economy with good jobs; high-quality social services; and a voice in what happens in their community.
"Small business owners, developers, and other local leaders are the engines of job creation and economic activity in communities across the country. When these leaders have the opportunity to succeed, their communities, their residents — and our country — thrive," said Ellis Carr, president and CEO of Momentus Capital. "We need bold thinking and a holistic approach to unleash solutions for underestimated communities. Momentus Capital was created to meet that challenge."
Each organization under the Momentus Capital brand will continue operating as a separate entity committed to serving its key market and clients, albeit with additional resources and product offerings.
By unifying as Momentus Capital with one shared vision and mission, these leading, mission-driven financial organizations can achieve even more than they could working as separate entities.
To achieve that shared vision and mission, Momentus Capital is uniquely positioned to provide entrepreneurs and local leaders at every stage of their growth with a continuum of capital and opportunities under one roof. These key resources that address the challenges of — and support the solutions for — underestimated communities include:
- Financial capital: a range of flexible debt and equity products to meet Momentus Capital's partners' needs, as well as access to new markets and potential investors
- Knowledge capital: business advising, assistance, and training to develop the skills and insights that can help partners advance their enterprises
- Social capital: connections to networks and people that can help Momentus Capital's partners succeed
Momentus Capital further amplifies this approach through technology solutions — including the industry-leading Ventures+ loan software — that assist its partners in making a greater impact in their communities.
Momentus Capital is the culmination of a vision that Mr. Carr and Kurt Chilcott, the longtime leader of CDC Small Business Finance, began to develop in 2019. These leaders sought a way that both organizations, impactful in their own right, could accelerate their work. Mr. Carr, the president and CEO of Capital Impact since 2016, was named the CEO of CDC Small Business Finance in 2021, while Mr. Chilcott transitioned to a role as chair of both organizations' boards. Under their leadership, Momentus Capital will continue to innovate how capital and investments flow into communities.
"In the midst of developing the strategy for Momentus Capital, we witnessed the toll from the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing racial reckoning," said Mr. Chilcott. "While challenging, those two years strengthened our resolve as we witnessed how these experiences specifically impacted communities of color and fueled the growing racial wealth gap."
Momentus Capital combines its national presence with a local, place-based approach. It works with local leaders — including small business owners, social entrepreneurs, community-minded developers, policy-makers, and builders of community facilities — to identify issues and drive solutions.
This approach is supported by the organization's lending and investment activities: over $700 million annually deployed to support small business owners, developers, and other community leaders. That, in turn, builds on more than $23 billion of investments that the Momentus Capital family of companies already made to support community solutions throughout their histories.
To support these community solutions, Momentus Capital is:
- Rethinking its credit parameters, and developing new lending and investing products to create more equitable access to capital for borrowers and projects who have traditionally been denied.
- Enhancing its lending with programs that solve for systemic issues through training, mentorship, and network building.
- Deploying technology solutions for community-focused partners and lenders to amplify their work.
- Working alongside partners in shaping national, regional, and local policy to address systemic inequities and expanding funding opportunities.
- Combining robust financial experience with community trust to attract mainstream dollars and deliver them to locally-led projects.
"We are constantly working to rethink outdated approaches that limit who has access to capital," said Mr. Carr. "Where others see risk, we see the opportunity to demonstrate that communities deserve investment. As more capital flows into these communities, the residents benefit — as do we all."
Among the recent programs and initiatives from the Momentus Capital family of companies:
- Activate Detroit, a new loan product that is empowering Black entrepreneurs by focusing on character-based evaluations, rather than credit scores.
- Impower, which helps business owners who have been denied for a commercial real estate loan, assisting them with the opportunity to build wealth, create jobs and stay in the communities they serve.
- The Equitable Development Initiative, Housing Equity Accelerator Fellowship, and Growing Diverse Housing Developers, all of which provide training, mentorship, connections, and pathways to financing for developers of color, helping them overcome racial barriers and systemic issues.
- Expanding access to Ventures+, a proprietary loan processing and portfolio management tool that has become one of the top resources for small business and community lenders. This has helped other local lenders create an impact in their communities by providing access to high-level services they would otherwise be unlikely to manage on their own.
- Launching an Impact Investing group to jumpstart growth-stage businesses that will impact their communities. Equity investments make up less than 2% of CDFI portfolios in the United States. This will fill a crucial gap for companies like this that need more than traditional debt products.
- Coming Soon! We are developing a first-of-its kind mission-driven investment bank to better connect investors with community organizations through community-centric securities offerings.
"Momentus Capital is dedicated to the idea that everyone deserves the opportunity to achieve the dreams they have for themselves, their communities, and for generations to come," said Mr. Carr. "I'm encouraged about what we've been able to achieve leading up to this key milestone. But I'm even more excited about the opportunities that stand before us to make real change."
Momentus Capital is transforming how capital and investments flow into communities to provide people access to the capital and opportunities they deserve.
Through our family of mission-driven organizations including Capital Impact Partners, CDC Small Business Finance, and Ventures Lending Technologies, we are working to reinvent traditional financial systems that have failed to address systemic issues of inequality, economic empowerment, and the widening racial wealth gap.
Each organization under the Momentus Capital brand will continue operating as a separate entity committed to serving its key market and clients, albeit with additional resources and product offerings.
We offer a continuum of financial, knowledge, and social capital to help local leaders build inclusive and equitable communities and create generational wealth. This includes a comprehensive package of loan products, impact investment opportunities, training and business advising programs, and technology services that advance locally-led solutions.
Leveraging 80 years of combined experience, a portfolio of nearly $3 billion, and strong community engagement, the family of companies has delivered more than $23 billion in financing, created and preserved 250,000 jobs, and served 12,000 small businesses and five million people across their history.
With headquarters in Arlington, Virginia, and San Diego, California, Momentus Capital operates nationally with a focus on larger urban areas and cities in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, New York, Texas, and Washington, D.C.

New investors include Outpost Ventures – a Neuberger Berman fund, Xerox Ventures, and G Squared. Continuing investors include Foundation Capital, Point72 Ventures, and Cervin Ventures.
PALO ALTO, Calif., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Anvilogic, a modern Security Operations Platform that brings a cloud-based security data lake to life, announced today the company's $25 million Series B funding. The round was led by Outpost Ventures – a Neuberger Berman fund, with participation from Xerox Ventures, G Squared, Foundation Capital, Point72 Ventures and Cervin Ventures. This round brings Anvilogic's total funding to $40 million.
"In this emerging new world of cloud-first applications and multi-cloud workloads, it's important to bring about similar modernization in security operations architectures, specifically when it comes to understanding the signals from newer cloud applications and correlating across them to weave together a complete picture of the threat landscape. Additionally, building out and operationalizing a security data lake to deliver threat detection and triage automation for the SOC is becoming mainstream," said Karthik Kannan, Founder/CEO of Anvilogic. "Enterprises need a bridge to get to the modern world as there is far too much institutional knowledge and investment that cannot be thrown away overnight in favor of a new architecture. This is exactly what Anvilogic brings – an automation platform that bridges the legacy world to the cloud world and transforms security operations to a new, cloud-based modern architecture."
Anvilogic is a cloud-based, modern, and automated Security Operations Center (SOC) platform. It enables security operations to function across on-prem, hybrid and multi-cloud workloads as well as security data lakes, while automating the majority of the traditional security workflows – detect, hunt, triage and response – all in a single platform. Security practitioners no longer have to worry about disparate tools or coding in tool-specific languages. Instead, they can work in a single detect & respond continuum fully enriched with context and integrated with downstream ticketing and case management systems like ServiceNow.
Purpose-built for security teams by security professionals, Anvilogic is designed to eliminate legacy approaches of traditional SIEMs. The AI-driven, community-connected threat detection, investigation and response capabilities help customers quickly navigate the threat detection journey, from maturity scoring to alerts to action, and create a modern, future-proof SOC.
"We are happy users of the Anvilogic SOC platform – it provides us the perfect force-multiplier effect we need in our detection engineering automation, and we look forward to the journey with their hunting & triage capabilities this year."
- Steven Sterns, Senior Director of Information Security at eBay
"The Anvilogic Threat Detection Platform uses robust industry frameworks like the MITRE ATT&CK to empower SOC analysts to cut through the high noise and low signal problem plaguing most SIEMs in use today. The Anvilogic team is very customer-focused and their modern SIEM approach is an extension of our team and helps us remain defensive against any adversary."
- Mark Eggleston, CISO at a leading global business services company
Anvilogic is building strong partnerships in the journey to become the leader in security operations automation and modernization. Anvilogic's key partner, and market leader, in providing security data lakes is Snowflake, on whose platform Anvilogic has built an architecture for enterprise security transformation.
"Anvilogic's quick growth is a testament to their commitment to solving difficult challenges the industry and its customers face. Snowflake looks forward to continuing to mobilize the world's data in partnership with Anvilogic by delivering a security data lake strategy that bridges legacy enterprise stacks to modern cloud architecture, lowers costs and improves our joint customers' overall security posture."
- Omer Singer, Head of Cybersecurity Strategy, Snowflake
New investors, Outpost Ventures – a Neuberger Berman fund, and Xerox Ventures, see the innovative and promising nature of Anvilogic's automation platform. Their support, network, and knowledge of the security industry is going to benefit Anvilogic in our growth over the next few years.
"The Neuberger Berman team values Anvilogic's ability to leverage data and alerts from various sources and apply artificial intelligence to supercharge SOC analysts by automating the process of detecting advanced threats and triaging them successfully. I've known Karthik from the very beginning of this venture and the Neuberger Berman investment represents a continuation of my belief in the company. I'm excited to double down based on the product and strong, positive customer feedback. Karthik and the Anvilogic team have been at the forefront of securing the enterprise and modernizing the SOC. This team has the technical and industry chops to build the next big thing in this market."
- David Dubick, Partner at Outpost Ventures, a Neuberger Berman fund
"Anvilogic's AI-driven purpose-built platform automates detection, hunt, triage and response workflows and helps SOC teams mitigate threats. Xerox Ventures is dedicated to supporting the company as it further expands the team and continues to tackle the challenge of modernizing security operations across cloud data environments."
- Dean Mai, Investment Director at Xerox Ventures
Anvilogic is a Palo Alto based cybersecurity startup founded by veterans from across the security industry. Our mission is to help unify people, process, and technology across the Security Operations Center and the business to protect organizations from cybersecurity threats. Anvilogic's modern SOC Platform enables efficiency by unifying and automating threat detection and incident response so security teams can quickly detect, hunt, triage, and respond to threats.

FARNBOROUGH, United Kingdom, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Boeing [NYSE: BA] and Cargolux today announced that Europe's largest all-cargo airline has selected the 777-8 Freighter as the preferred solution to replace its 747-400 fleet. The selection was announced at the Farnborough International Airshow.
"With the 777-8 Freighter being the preferred solution to replace our 747-400s, Cargolux is looking forward to continuing its ongoing relationship with Boeing," said Richard Forson, president and CEO of Cargolux.
The 777-8 Freighter is ideally suited for operators like Cargolux, creating a more sustainable and profitable future. With nearly identical payload and range capabilities as the 747-400 Freighter, the 777-8 Freighter will provide 30% better fuel efficiency and emissions and 25% better operating costs per tonne as the airplane to replace aging large freighters later this decade.
"With the selection of our newest freighter as their preferred solution, Cargolux continues its long and enduring history with Boeing, integrating the 777-8F seamlessly into the airline's all-747 cargo operations," said Stan Deal, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes. "With its investment in the 777-8 Freighter, Cargolux will operate the most advanced, fuel-efficient, twin-engine freighter in the industry. The 777-8 Freighter significantly reduces CO2 emissions compared to previous models with a reduced noise footprint, helping to advance Cargolux's commitment to sustainable operations."
Boeing launched the 777-8 Freighter in January and has booked more than 50 orders for the model. With advanced technology from the new 777X family and proven performance of the market-leading 777 Freighter, the 777-8 Freighter offers the highest payload and the lowest fuel use, emissions and operating cost per tonne of any large freighter.
Cargolux is the largest operator of Boeing widebody freighters in Europe with a combined total fleet of 30 747-400 and 747-8 Freighters. Boeing and Cargolux's partnership has spanned almost 50 years from 1973 when it received its first Douglas DC-8 Freighter before entering the jet age in 1977 with the delivery of its first 747, a 747-200 Freighter called 'City of Luxembourg'.
The 2022 Boeing Commercial Market Outlook projects a 80% increase in the global freighter fleet through 2041, including approximately 940 new widebody freighters such as the new 777-8 Freighter. First delivery of the 777-8 Freighter is anticipated in 2027.
Cargolux, based in Luxembourg, is Europe's leading all-cargo airline operating a fleet of 30 Boeing 747-8 freighters and Boeing 747-400 freighters. The Cargolux worldwide network covers over 75 destinations on scheduled all-cargo flights and offers full and part-charter services. The company has more than 85 offices in over 50 countries and operates an extensive global trucking network to more than 250 destinations. With 50 years of experience in the air cargo industry and an extensive product portfolio, Cargolux provides tailored transport solutions for all types of shipments. As a responsible cargo carrier, Cargolux has developed a solid CSR program encompassing Environmental, Social, and Governance principles. The Cargolux Group employs close to 2,500 staff members worldwide.

The BBC is set to pay “substantial” damages to the former nanny to Princes WIlliam and Harry over claims made by disgraced journalist Martin Bashir that she had an affair with the Duke of Wales.
A report by the UK national broadcaster last year found that Bashir had “deceived and induced” Earl Spencer, the brother of Princess Diana, to secure his 1995 Panorama interview with her.
In doing so, he is alleged to have told the Earl that royal nanny Tiggy Legge-Bourke had an affair with Prince Charles which ended in a terminated pregnancy.

Her lawyer Louise Prince said the “very serious and totally unfounded allegations” were fabricatd.
“The claimant did not have an affair with HRH The Prince of Wales, did not become pregnant with his child, and did not have an abortion,” Prince said.
She added that the allegations impacted the nanny’s relationship with Princess Diana, causing Ms Legge-Bourke, whose married name is Alexandra Pettifer, to become “extremely upset and confused”.
“She felt she had to prove to others that the allegations were untrue by revealing highly sensitive matters, including private medical information,” Prince said.
“Sadly Diana, Princess of Wales, could not be convinced even when incontrovertible evidence was presented.”
Pettifer also suffered from the publicity and the coverage in the national press for the ensuing 25 years, she said.
In court, BBC representatives issued an apology to Pettifer and agreed to a settlement.
TIm Davie, BBC director-general said: “The BBC has agreed to pay substantial damages to Mrs Pettifer and I would like to take this opportunity to apologise publicly to her, to the Prince of Wales, and to the Dukes of Cambridge and Sussex, for the way in which Princess Diana was deceived and the subsequent impact on all their lives.”

DETROIT (AP) — Tesla’s second-quarter profit fell 32% from record levels in the first quarter as supply chain issues and pandemic lockdowns in China slowed production of its electric vehicles.
But the Austin, Texas, company still surprised analysts Wednesday with a better-than-expected $2.26 billion net profit for the quarter. Tesla stuck with a prediction of 50% annual vehicle sales growth over the next few years, but said that depends on the supply chain, equipment capacity and other issues.
The company made a record $3.32 billion in this year’s first quarter.
Tesla’s sales from April through June fell to 254,000 vehicles, their lowest quarterly level since last fall. But the company predicted record-breaking production in the second half and said that in June it had the highest production month in its history.
Industry analysts had been expecting lower earnings after the lower sales figures and tweets by CEO Elon Musk about laying off 10% of the company’s work force due to fears of a recession. In an interview, Musk described new factories in Austin and Berlin as “money furnaces” that were losing billions of dollars because supply chain breakdowns were limiting the number of cars they can produce.
But Tesla exceeded Wall Street expectations from April through June with adjusted earnings of $2.27 per share. Analysts polled by FactSet expected $1.81. Revenue was $16.93 billion, beating estimates of $16.54 billion.
Edward Jones analyst Jeff Windau said the earnings were better than expected. He noted that the decrease in automobile revenues from the first quarter was offset by stronger energy storage, solar and services performance.
Musk reiterated the 50% annual vehicle sales growth forecast but said it depends a lot on circumstances that the company might not be able to control.
Windau said the forecast “shows the confidence they have in their ability to grow the electric vehicle market.”
Tesla shares rose 1.5% to $753.40 in extended trading Wednesday.
The company said it converted 75% of its bitcoin investment to government currency during the quarter, adding $936 million in cash to its balance sheet. It spent $1.5 billion on the investment last year. Overall, it booked a $106 million cost for bitcoin, plus added costs for employee reductions.
CEO Elon Musk said the bitcoin holdings were sold to raise cash because of uncertainty over how long pandemic lockdowns would last in China. He said Tesla is open to increasing bitcoin holdings in the future.
The price of bitcoin has fallen about 50% so far this year.
Musk also said Tesla is seeing indications that inflation may be declining as prices for most commodities drop. He cautioned against making economic predictions but said commodity prices, such as steel and aluminum, are trending down.
Musk said Tesla’s “Full Self-Driving” beta test software is on track to be released before the end of this year to all North American customers who want to buy it. And with regulatory approval, it will be released in Europe and other parts of the world, he said. Despite its name, “Full Self-Driving” cannot drive itself, and Tesla warns that drivers have to pay attention all the time.
Chief Financial Officer Zachary Kirkhorn said the company is seeing “maybe a little” impact on demand due to macroeconomic issues. Musk reiterated that Tesla has a vehicle supply problem, not a demand problem, and said it now takes six months to a year to get a new vehicle. He said the company has increased prices to “embarrassing levels” due to inflation, but he hopes to reduce prices a bit. | https://phl17.com/business/ap-business/tesla-2q-profit-drops-from-1q-but-company-beats-estimates/ | 2022-07-21T11:20:32Z | https://phl17.com/business/ap-business/tesla-2q-profit-drops-from-1q-but-company-beats-estimates/ | false |

Renowned Norwegian architecture and design company Snøhetta appointed to design project
Swire Hotels' "The House Collective", a leading contemporary luxury hotel brand, makes Japan debut
TOKYO and GREENWICH, Conn., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Tokyu Corporation, a conglomerate that is the main part of Tokyu Group, L Catterton Real Estate ("LCRE"), the real estate investment and development arm of L Catterton, the largest global consumer-focused private equity firm, and Tokyu Department Store, Tokyu Group's retail company, today unveiled plans for the Shibuya Upper West Project, a landmark, high quality, mixed-use project in Tokyo's vibrant Shibuya district.
Located at the intersection of the affluent residential areas of Shoto and Yoyogi, the cultural neighborhoods of Kamiyamacho and Tomigaya, and the lively Shibuya district, Shibuya Upper West Project (currently Tokyu Department Store's flagship store) will feature high quality retail, a small luxury hotel, and rental residences. The concept of the project is "Tokyo's Urban Retreat", an enclave of relaxation combined with art and culture through a collaboration with the cultural powerhouse Bunkamura. Targeting completion in fiscal year 2027, the Shibuya Upper West Project will become the 'super-connector' of these communities, with prime access to large parks and public transportation.
The ground-breaking project leverages Tokyu Group's deep roots in Shibuya and expertise in mixed-use developments, retail, hospitality, and culture, and LCRE's extensive experience designing prominent destinations and curating world-class brands. To lead architectural design, the partnership has retained internationally acclaimed Snøhetta, which specializes in designing sustainable spaces fusing conceptual form with landscape and nature. The House Collective, a contemporary luxury brand by Swire Hotels, a subsidiary of Swire Properties, brings a unique, art-conscious offering to a wide fan base across Asia and beyond, marking the first true luxury hotel in Shibuya. Environmental and sustainability objectives are central to the project with the goal of securing international certifications.
Tokyu Corporation President and Representative Director Kazuo Takahashi commented:
"In the year of Tokyu's Group's 100th anniversary, we are honored to announce our partnership with luxury real estate investor L Catterton Real Estate, a strong partner with deep experience in creating iconic mixed-use projects who brings a strategic relationship with LVMH and Agache, global design firm Snøhetta and leading contemporary luxury hotel brand Swire Hotels. Snøhetta's heritage rooted in Norway, one of the most sustainable countries in the world, places social and environmental sustainability at the heart of every project. The House Collective creates elevated luxury experiences with distinctive character and a sense of style. Located at the site of Tokyu Department Store's flagship store, the new development expects to welcome diverse audiences. With its synergy with the adjacent cultural facility Bunkamura, we believe that the project will play a key part in our vision for "Entertainment City Shibuya" and pave the way for Tokyu Group's continued growth over the next 100 years."
L Catterton Real Estate Managing Partner, Mathieu Le Bozec commented:
"We are excited to work with world renowned and likeminded partners, Snøhetta and Swire. This project solidifies our commitment to creating value by developing next-generation, sustainable, world class destinations in key neighborhoods of global cities. In Snøhetta, we partner with a design architect that creates striking architecture and are thrilled to see their building debut in Japan become an important flagship to Shibuya. In Swire and The House Collective, we work with one of Asia's most sophisticated and luxurious hoteliers and are delighted to introduce a new standard of contemporary hospitality to Tokyo. Together with our partner Tokyu Group, we look forward to seeing this project take shape and cement its position as the intersection of history, tradition, and urban lifestyle in one of the world's most vibrant cities."
Robert Greenwood, Partner and Managing Director of Asia at Snøhetta commented:
"We have imagined a new 24-hour vision for Shibuya with this hybrid urban development that combines Landmark and Landform – a bridge between the city and the streets that extends itself into the skyline – connecting Shibuya to Shoto. The design is formed as a single gesture, moving from the horizontal ground plane to the vertical skyline, symbolizing the energy of the area in a single stroke. It is an homage to the duality of Tokyo – a modern city that is steeped in tradition."
Toby Smith, Deputy Chairman of Swire Hotels commented:
"Witnessing the growth of The House Collective is an extremely proud moment as we venture into new cities to bring our distinctive design and people-first approach to Tokyo. Our partners Tokyu Group and LCRE share our vision of creating a new and vibrant guest experience which, with the opening of our new House, will offer world-class hospitality for both locals and visitors to the city."

BEIJING, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Waterdrop Inc. ("Waterdrop", the "Company" or "we") (NYSE: WDH), a leading technology platform dedicated to insurance and healthcare service with a positive social impact, today announced that it has partnered with China United Property Insurance Company Limited ("CIC") and Yong An Insurance ("Yong An") to launch "Waterdrop Blue Ocean", a series of customized and cost-effective critical illness products with a waiver on health declarations, further expanding its user group beyond healthy customers to cover customers with pre-existing medical conditions.
The waiver on health declaration is a breakthrough in critical illness insurance
In October 2021, China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission ("CBIRC") unveiled a directive guidance on further enriching health insurance product supply, in which the regulator encourages insurance companies to appropriately relax the threshold requirements for insurance applicants, and provide reasonable coverage for the elderly with pre-existing conditions and chronic diseases.
Currently, typical health insurance products in China mainly target healthy customers while products available for customers with pre-existing conditions only cover certain categories of illnesses, or partially lower their thresholds on insurance purchase. Although people with pre-existing conditions have a stronger needs of insurance protections, their growing demand has been notably unattended.
Mr. Wei Ran, a partner of Waterdrop, commented, "To address this issue, we have been collaborating closely with our insurance partners to promote product innovation, including insurance products to customers with pre-existing conditions. Today, we are pleased to jointly launch the 'Waterdrop Blue Ocean' with CIC and Yong An, a series of cost-effective customized critical illness product with a waiver on health declarations, dedicated to customers with pre-existing medical conditions."
Mr. Shangjun Nie, vice president of China United Property Insurance and general manager of its Beijing branch, commented, "As the first of its kind in the industry, the launch of the 'Waterdrop Blue Ocean' series is a pioneering initiative and adds great significance to the development of the entire online health insurance sector."
Mr. Xiong Liu, executive vice president of Yong An, commented, "Many elderly and consumers with chronic diseases were hesitant to purchase health insurance products as they worried about an incomplete disclosure of their health conditions to the insurance company would adversely affect their future insurance claims. 'Waterdrop Blue Ocean' has waived the health declaration of customers, allowing them to enjoy a more convenient and intelligent insurance service."
The waiver on health declaration will not result in tougher claim criteria
During the development phase, Waterdrop, CIC, and Yong An Insurance have listened to users' opinions extensively. The launch of "Waterdrop Blue Ocean" has waived the health declaration of customers but ensure the risks are controllable at the same time.
Mr. Hui Teng, chief actuary of Waterdrop, commented, "The underwriting risk for consumers with pre-existing conditions could be relatively higher. However, through the expansion of the underwriting population, and the strengthening of our claims review capabilities and our actuarial estimation of insurance claims, we are capable of diversifying and minimizing the underwriting risks."
The "Waterdrop Blue Ocean" critical illness product series is available for any insured person ranging from 30 days after birth to 60 years old, and it is on a yearly renewable basis up to the age of 80. It provides extensive coverage for a total of 193 mild, moderate, and critical illnesses with a maximum of two claims on critical illnesses in the first year, and offers extended coverage such as optional benefits for ICU inpatient treatment, specific organ transplants, ECMO treatment, and off-site medical referrals. In regards to insurance claims, the criteria of the "Waterdrop Blue Ocean" series are in line with those of other critical illness products that require health declarations and the claim process remains as efficient as other critical illness products.
In terms of insurance premium, for instance, a 40-year-old male can purchase "Waterdrop Blue Ocean No. 1" at an annual premium of RMB679, with maximum benefits of RMB150,000 on critical illnesses and a maximum of two claims in the first year. Similarly, a 40-year-old female can purchase "Waterdrop Blue Ocean No.2" at an annual premium of RMB1,452, with maximum benefits of RMB300,000 on critical illnesses and a maximum of two claims in the first year.
Mr. Ran said, the launch of the new product showcases Waterdrop's commitment to the mission of "leveraging internet technologies to make insurance protection more inclusive and accessible to the public, and bring insurance and healthcare service to billions". Going forward, Waterdrop will continue co-developing more inclusive insurance products with more industry partners to satisfy the protection needs of more people.

Blackpool drug arrests: Three held over California cannabis imports
- Published
Three people have been arrested after police seized herbal cannabis posted from the United States to Blackpool.
The crackdown on "brazen" drug dealers importing cannabis from California - where cannabis is legal - featured three raids in the Lancashire resort.
Police seized about 10kg of herbal cannabis as well as electronic devices, a Rolex watch and £2,000 in cash.
Two women and a man, all aged 29 and of Blackpool, have been held on suspicion of importing a controlled drug.
The raids follow an increasing number of herbal cannabis seizures in the county, police said.
It is mainly being imported from California, where the drug's regulated production and sale is legal.
'More brazen'
"The arrests are our response to an increase in these drugs being brought into our county, in particular Blackpool," said Det Ch Insp James Edmonds.
"Dealers order the drug online, with the packages being unwittingly delivered by parcel providers.
"The drugs come from California, but on occasion, seizures from Morocco and Spain have been made."
He said "dealers are becoming more brazen".
"We want to try and stem some of the flow into Blackpool as this is a persistent and growing problem in the area." | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-62250727 | 2022-07-21T11:32:57Z | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-62250727 | true |

– Based on Results from Phase 3 BOSTON Study, Marketing Authorisation Expands Multiple Myeloma Indication –
– Approval Follows Positive Opinion by European Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) in May 2022 –
NEWTON, Mass. and FLORENCE, Italy, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq:KPTI), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering novel cancer therapies, and the Menarini Group ("Menarini"), a privately-held, leading international pharmaceutical company, today announced that the European Commission (EC) has granted Marketing Authorisation for NEXPOVIO® (selinexor), a first-in-class, oral exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitor, in combination with once-weekly bortezomib (Velcade®) and low-dose dexamethasone (SVd) for the treatment of adults with multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior therapy. With this approval for the extension of NEXPOVIO®'s indication in the European Union (EU), the conditional marketing authorisation is now converted to a full approval. The marketing authorisation, which marks the second indication for NEXPOVIO®, is valid in all 27 member states of the EU as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Northern Ireland. Stemline Therapeutics B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Menarini Group, will be responsible for all commercialization activities in Europe.
The approval follows a positive opinion granted in May 2022 by the CHMP based on results from the Phase 3 BOSTON study that demonstrated once-weekly SVd resulted in a statistically significant reduction in the risk of disease progression or death compared to standard twice-weekly bortezomib plus dexamethasone (Vd) regimen. The results from the BOSTON study were published in The Lancet (Grosicki, et al.) in November 2020.
"The European Commission's approval of an expanded use of NEXPOVIO® provides another option for patients with multiple myeloma who have relapsed, or become resistant to current treatment regimens," said Richard Paulson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Karyopharm. "Our decision to pursue approval for this patient population is indicative of our commitment to expand access to selinexor across the globe and we look forward to working closely with Menarini who will commercialize NEXPOVIO® in Europe."
"The approval of NEXPOVIO® marks an important step forward for patients in Europe where nearly 51,000 new cases of multiple myeloma are diagnosed each year and therapeutic options are limited," said Elcin Barker Ergun, Chief Executive Officer of Menarini. "We are committed to offering patients and physicians a valuable new treatment option and are working hard to make NEXPOVIO® available in different European countries as quickly as possible."
About the BOSTON study
The Marketing Authorisation is based upon the Phase 3 BOSTON (Bortezomib, Selinexor and Dexamethasone) study, which was a multi-center, randomized study (NCT03110562) that evaluated 402 adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who had received one to three prior lines of therapy. The study was designed to compare the efficacy, safety and certain health-related quality of life parameters of once-weekly SVd versus twice-weekly Vd. The primary endpoint of the study was progression-free survival and key secondary endpoints included overall response rate, rate of peripheral neuropathy, and others. To learn more about this study, please refer to Karyopharm and Menarini's press release on the positive CHMP opinion issued on May 20, 2022.
About Multiple Myeloma in Europe
Multiple myeloma is an incurable cancer with significant morbidity and the second most common hematologic malignancy. According to the World Health Organization, in 2020, there were approximately 51,000 new cases and 32,000 deaths from multiple myeloma in Europe1. While the treatment of multiple myeloma has improved over the last 20 years, and overall survival has increased considerably, the disease remains incurable, and nearly all patients will eventually relapse and develop disease that is refractory to all approved anti-myeloma therapies. Therefore, there continues to be a high unmet medical need for new therapies, particularly those with novel mechanisms of action.
About NEXPOVIO® (selinexor)
NEXPOVIO®, which is marketed as XPOVIO® in the U.S., has been approved in the following oncology indications by the European Commission: (i) in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of multiple myeloma in adult patients who have received at least four prior therapies and whose disease is refractory to at least two proteasome inhibitors, two immunomodulatory agents and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody, and who have demonstrated disease progression on the last therapy; and (ii) in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone for the treatment of adults with multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior therapy.
The expanded NEXPOVIO® indication now allows adult patients with multiple myeloma to be treated in earlier lines of therapy. The indication for NEXPOVIO® is valid in the EU Member States as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Northern Ireland. NEXPOVIO® is also approved in the UK under a Conditional Marketing Authorisation. The extension of indication in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone for the treatment of adults with multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior therapy is currently under review by Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency.
NEXPOVIO® is a first-in-class, oral exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitor. NEXPOVIO® functions by selectively binding to and inhibiting the nuclear export protein exportin 1 (XPO1, also called CRM1). NEXPOVIO® blocks the nuclear export of tumor suppressor, growth regulatory and anti-inflammatory proteins, leading to accumulation of these proteins in the nucleus and enhancing their anti-cancer activity in the cell. The forced nuclear retention of these proteins can counteract a multitude of the oncogenic pathways that, unchecked, allow cancer cells with severe DNA damage to continue to grow and divide in an unrestrained fashion.
Please see NEXPOVIO® Summary of Product Characteristics and European Public Assessment Report at https://ec.europa.eu/health/documents/community-register/html/h1537.htm

Powered by U-Haul, the growing program offers moving services to more than 350 schools
PHOENIX, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Collegeboxes® will help more students move back to school in 2022 than ever before, and the families who plan ahead will find added savings this week when utilizing a special discount.
Students who sign up for Collegeboxes' Ship to School service and use the code "BACK2SCHOOL" through July 29 will receive 10% off their moving services at Collegeboxes.com. Orders can also be placed by calling (866) 269-4887.
"Collegeboxes has seen a 40% increase in the number of students using our service to move their items to campus," stated Dain Howell, Director of Collegeboxes. "This means a record number of families are looking for new and better ways to approach back-to-school moving. With higher prices on gas, airplane tickets and hotel rooms, Collegeboxes helps families avoid those financial hurdles by providing a white-glove service at an affordable price."
Collegeboxes, a division of U-Haul®, can deliver items to students in two ways:
- The Collegeboxes team delivers boxes directly to the student's dorm or residence the day they move in.
- Or now, with Pre-arrival Delivery, Collegeboxes works directly with the student's school personnel to deliver items to dorm rooms in the days before the student arrives.
"Pre-arrival Delivery cuts down on the chaos and stress of moving day," Howell noted. "This option is increasingly popular because both families and schools benefit from our contactless delivery service. With Pre-arrival Delivery, students can move to campus with just a backpack. Once they get their room key and open the door, they'll see their items already in the room."
Collegeboxes expects more than 7,000 students to utilize its moving services upon returning to school in 2022. More than 350 schools currently enjoy the benefits of full-service moving for their students with Collegeboxes. Additionally, Collegeboxes provides a direct shipping service at another 990 schools throughout the U.S.
Full-service schools have access to school-scheduled dates for Collegeboxes specialists to assist students; pickup times from dorm rooms; loading and unloading boxes; barcoding boxes for easy tracking; reporting for students to follow their items; storage at secure local U-Haul facilities; and domestic and international shipping.
Students at all other schools can still utilize Collegeboxes' direct shipping service and track their shipment using their Collegeboxes account.
Since 1999, Collegeboxes has provided proven results for schools when it comes to the difficulties of move-in and move-out day. Student communications go through Collegeboxes – not the school – so administrations are never burdened. Students gain peace of mind knowing Collegeboxes assumes all liability for possessions once they are in the care of the local team, while also using a service that integrates social distancing during a busy, crowded time.
Since 1945, U-Haul has been the No. 1 choice of do-it-yourself movers, with a network of more than 23,000 locations across all 50 states and 10 Canadian provinces. U-Haul Truck Share 24/7 offers secure access to U-Haul trucks every hour of every day through the customer dispatch option on their smartphones and our proprietary Live Verify technology. Our customers' patronage has enabled the U-Haul fleet to grow to approximately 186,000 trucks, 128,000 trailers and 46,000 towing devices. U-Haul is the third largest self-storage operator in North America and offers 876,000 rentable storage units and 75.1 million square feet of self-storage space at owned and managed facilities. U-Haul is the largest retailer of propane in the U.S., and continues to be the largest installer of permanent trailer hitches in the automotive aftermarket industry.

- 85% of patients feel better about their healthcare experience when they have transparency and greater access to medical imaging records
- More than 70% of patients are actively researching their specific health condition(s), while 83% of those that do research feel more empowered
- One-third (33%) of patients have received incorrect test results or a medical report error, while almost half (46%) claim to have experienced a misdiagnosis.
- More than half (52%) of respondents had difficulty accessing and sharing medical imaging records with their healthcare team
TORONTO, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - After feeling powerless for much of the pandemic, patients want to play an active role in their healthcare and the health journeys of their loved ones, according to a new survey of 242 patients across the U.S. and Canada. Findings also revealed opportunities to develop stronger relationships between patients and their healthcare providers.
The new Patient Pulse survey was conducted by PocketHealth, a healthcare technology platform that enables more than 720,000 patients across the US and Canada to permanently own, access and share their medical imaging and health records. The survey was developed to gain insights into the growing trend of patients seeking more information beyond what their doctors provide. and found that 71% of patients cited they actively researched their own healthcare conditions, while 83% of those that do research feel more empowered by the process.
Findings also revealed that 85% of patients feel better about their overall healthcare experience when they have transparency and greater access to medical imaging records.
"The demand for transparency in the healthcare system is evident as patients are hungry for the tools and information that give them more control of their health – a trend accelerated by the pandemic," said Rishi Nayyar, Co-Founder and CEO, PocketHealth. "By placing patients at the center of their healthcare journey, providers are able to strengthen the partnership between physicians and patients leading to better outcomes."
Patients also voiced concerns about falling through the cracks of an overburdened medical system. The study found that 33% of patients said they or someone they knew had received incorrect test results or noticed an error on a medical report, while 46% of respondents had been misdiagnosed or knew someone who had experienced a misdiagnosis. Patients who have watched others experience a misdiagnosis either personally or second hand are likely determined to avoid the same fate by embracing technologies and information sources that give them greater control over their health.
"Patients need access to their information, or they will find ways to obtain it on their own," added Nayyar. "As access to Electronic Health Records (EHRs) improves, healthcare providers benefit from patients who are educated about their own care, resulting in better doctor-patient relationships."
Placing patients at the center of their own healthcare journey will help providers in the long-run as the more informed, confident and empowered patients are, the less strain there is on providers and healthcare workers in general.
Survey responses were collected recently by PocketHealth from 242 patients across Canada. For the full report, please visit this link.
PocketHealth is the world's first patient-centric image sharing platform. With PocketHealth, patients can instantly access, share and take ownership over their own medical imaging and records - anytime, anywhere, and with anyone. PocketHealth also enables direct sharing between hospitals and physicians, as well as instant DICOM retrieval and automated importing capability, creating a unified image management solution for more than 600 hospitals and imaging clinics across North America. PocketHealth believes that by placing patients at the center of their care journey, records move more ethically, easily and securely throughout the healthcare system. Learn more at pockethealth.com

Biden wants to REFUND the police: President will ask for $37billion to fight and prevent crime as rates soar across the country including hiring 100,000 more cops
- President Biden proposing to spend $37 billion for fighting and preventing crime
- Under plans, at least $3 billion would be geared toward clearing court backlogs
- $15 billion for a grant program that would fund ideas for preventing violent crime
- The remaining $5 billion would support programs intended to prevent violence
President Joe Biden is proposing to spend roughly $37 billion for fighting and preventing crime, including $13 billion to help communities hire and train 100,000 police officers over five years.
Biden will outline his anti-crime program, dubbed the Safer America Plan, on Thursday during a visit to Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.
As part of Biden's plans, $3 billion would be geared toward clearing court backlogs, resolving cases involving murders and guns and setting up task forces to share intelligence, with an eye toward reducing gun violence.
His plan would also impose tougher penalties for fentanyl trafficking amid an epidemic of drug overdoses.
The president also wants to use $15 billion to create a grant program that would fund ideas for preventing violent crime or creating a public health response to nonviolence incidents, aimed at reducing the burden on law enforcement.
The remaining $5 billion would support programs intended to stop violence before it occurs.
President Joe Biden is proposing to spend roughly $37 billion for fighting and preventing crime, including $13 billion to help communities hire and train 100,000 police officers over five years
To tackle organized retail theft, the plan calls on Congress to pass legislation to require online marketplaces like Amazon to verify third-party sellers' information, and to impose liability on online marketplaces for the sale of stolen goods on their platforms.
Biden has long rejected some progressive Democrats' drive to 'defund the police.'
Polls show Americans consider crime one of the top challenges facing the country, and Biden is attempting to bolster Democrats in what are expected to be closely fought midterm elections in November that will determine whether they remain in control of Congress.
Republicans are trying to gain leverage in November's midterm elections by portraying Democrats as unwilling to confront crime problems.
The Democratic president will request the money from Congress as part of his latest budget proposal, according to senior administration officials who previewed the plan on the condition of anonymity ahead of the formal announcement.
After speaking in Wilkes-Barre on Thursday, Biden is scheduled to attend a fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee in Philadelphia.
Then he is expected to spend a long weekend in Wilmington, Delaware, where he has a home.
Several Democrats have changed their tune on defunding the police in recent weeks amid a surge in crime.
Democratic Representative Mondaire Jones of Westchester in 2020 backed calls to defund police departments.
Democratic Representative Mondaire Jones of Westchester in 2020 backed calls to defund police departments
He told Wenonah Hauter, founder of the NGO Food & Water Watch, in an interview in June 25, 2020: 'Of course we need to end mass incarceration, and legalize cannabis and defund the police.'
And in July that year, he added: 'Let me go back and say we need to, you know, talk about defunding the police, cutting that funding and reallocating it to social workers, and youth employment.'
But early this month Jones changed tack, saying that 'black Americans don’t want to send police officers out of their communities.'
Others who have pivoted on the issue include Stacey Abrams who told Axios in June that should increase base pay for Georgia state troopers and other law enforcement officers, if elected November.
In June 2020, she voiced support for the defund the police movement.
Democrat-held cities including New York City and Minneapolis implement defund the police programs following the death of George Floyd, but many have since reversed the policies.
Meanwhile poll in March found the majority of voters would support candidates who back funding the police, listing the issue in the top two swaying the electorate.
Asked if they were more or less likely to back 'a candidate who supports funding the police and providing them the resources and training they need to protect our communities,' 75 percent of respondents said it would boost their chances.
Just 11 percent said it would be a turn-off.
The results came in an NBC News poll released less than eight months before November's midterm elections.
At the very bottom of the list is the issue of defunding the police - 73 percent said they're less likely to support a candidate echoing the progressive call and 17 percent said it would help win their vote.
That's a sizeable net difference of 56 percent.
Democrat Senator Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, known as AOC, has repeatedly called to defund the police in the wake of the killings of George Floyd and Duante Wright
Several Democrats including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, known as AOC, have called to defund the police in the wake of the killings of George Floyd and Duante Wright.
Challenged on her position in 2020, AOC said: 'I believe the path toward justice is a long arc. Safety is not just an officer with a badge and a gun.
'Our [police budget] is too high,' she added, citing a $6 billion figure for New York's department.
She also said that many of her constituents have complained to her that 'too many people' are killed by 'police violence', with widespread protests being sparked by the killing of George Floyd on May 25 in Minneapolis.
'It's my job to listen. We need to invest in those other types of safety,' AOC said.
'We need to stop being so reactionary.'
'Defund the police' became a rallying cry for protesters calling for police reform during nationwide demonstrations over the death of Floyd. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11035061/Biden-seeking-37B-fighting-crime-hiring-police.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-07-21T11:35:11Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11035061/Biden-seeking-37B-fighting-crime-hiring-police.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false |
The AI-Digital Assistant and Educational Platform Provider Announces Partnership with Sequoia Financial
PALO ALTO, Calif., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- CogniCor, the Morgan Stanley-backed provider of artificial intelligence-powered business automation and learning platform for highly regulated industries, today announced it established a formal relationship with Charles Schwab to provide AI-enabled solutions to its affiliated registered investment advisors (RIAs) through the Managed Account Marketplace®. Sequoia Financial is the first customer as part of this new engagement.
Continued consolidation in the space has pushed RIA owners to pursue M&A-based growth, leading to a significant need for scalable solutions that enable quick and efficient onboarding and education of new staff and advisors, new account openings and helping clients transition existing accounts to their advisor's new firm.
CogniCor Co-founder and CEO Sindhu Joseph, Ph.D., said, "AI-enabled digital assistants are uniquely positioned to alleviate the issues born of significant M&A growth within this industry. Our relationship with Schwab addresses the significant demand for these solutions from the nation's leading RIAs."
Charles Schwab-affiliated RIAs will have ready access to CogniCor's suite of AI-enabled digital assistants and learning platforms through the Managed Account Marketplace®. Once an RIA establishes a direct agreement with the company, CogniCor's digital assistant will facilitate a seamless experience for advisors and straight through processing to the custodians. The RIA can integrate these solutions into their day-to-day operations, driving efficiencies and automating critical back-office functions.
Dr. Joseph continued, "Currently, advisors and employees are forced to spend around 40% of their time executing routine, manual tasks. This time should be devoted to serving clients and performing other value-generative activities. By providing its affiliated RIAs access to our business automation and learning platforms, Schwab can fuel further growth opportunities for its customers."
Sequoia Partnership
Sequoia Capital, one of Schwab's largest RIA customers, is working closely with CogniCor to test its latest AI-enabled solution, the Meeting Assistant, on a large scale. This system works with advisors and the firm's current Salesforce-based CRM to automate the pre- and post-meeting paperwork, create dynamic agendas and help track life events and milestones for a customer in real-time.
"As we looked to improve our advisors' efficiency without any impact to the client experience, we identified the administrative processes around the client advisor meeting as an area ripe for improvement," said Trevor Chuna, Chief Technology Officer with Sequoia. "Working closely with CogniCor, we selected several areas in which we believe this technology can reduce the time spent on repetitive administrative activities. We are extremely pleased to roll these seamlessly integrated tools to our advisors in the coming months."
Dr. Joseph concluded, "We look forward to our partnership with Sequoia as we address this particular opportunity and provide their advisors a completely integrated, AI-enabled solution that can help them focus on what matters most, the relationships with clients."

Boeing lands deal for 30 737 MAX jets from Miami's 777 Partners
By David Shepardson
FARNBOROUGH, England, July 19 (Reuters) - Private equity firm 777 Partners on Tuesday agreed to buy 30 more Boeing 737 MAX jets as it expands its low-cost airline plans.
The Miami-based investment firm said it plans to buy both the main 737 MAX 8 model and the higher-density 737 MAX 8200 version.
It said it plans to buy up to 66 MAX jets in part for a new planned low-cost airline.
The deal, announced at the Farnborough Airshow, takes 777 Partners' purchase plans up to 134 MAX planes having announced an agreement for 30 in December.
The firm has used its 737 MAX purchases to launch two budget carriers - Canadian ultra low-cost carrier Flair Airlines and Bonza Airline, an Australian start-up set to begin operations this year.
"This new order marks another milestone in the robust growth of our aviation businesses and concurrently, our partnership with Boeing," said Josh Wander, managing partner of 777 Partners.
Wander told reporters the order would help it launch another low-cost air carrier that he plans to announce "in the near term."
He declined to say where it would be located but called it a "market ripe for low cost air travel."
"The 777 aviation platform, which now spans two continents and two airlines, will soon be three and in the future 4, 5 and 6," Wander said. "Using the MAX platform to enable our capacity to deliver ultra-low cost airlines to a global community."
777 said 93% of Bonza's planned routes are not currently served by any airline and 96% not currently served by a low-cost carrier. Flair serves over 30 cities across Canada, the United States and Mexico.
Boeing Commercial Airlines CEO Stan Deal said the MAX 8200 "really in the ultra-low cost carrier optimises unit cost.... so that they can pass on great value to the passenger."

Heat, drought beginning to take a toll on Kansas cattle ranchers
PRATT, Kan. (KWCH) - The constant heat and lack of rain are causing headaches for Kansas agriculture. Ranchers say they’re now having trouble feeding their cattle due to a lack of grass and hay, meaning they could be forced to sell them early.
Ranchers at Pratt Livestock said hay is becoming harder and hard to come by. Some fear that the severe drought and the brutal heat that are threatening the Texas beef cattle production could soon make their way to Kansas.
“Luckily, we have a couple of circles of hay to get us by for the winter. For now, like down in Texas, they don’t have no grass. Stuff is starting to burn up. It ain’t no good, and it ain’t going to be good neither,” said Beau Schauvliege, a rancher from Wilmore, Kan.
Schauvliege said everyone he knows is selling cattle. Others are having trouble transporting the animals because of the heat.
“Getting up as early as we can. We’ll start at 4:30, 5 o’clock. Try to get everything gathered and in. Make sure they have enough water, water’s a big deal,” said Schauvliege. “Try not to leave them on the trailer, for as short as possible.”
Steve Stratford is the assistant manager for Pratt Livestock. He said if drought conditions don’t improve in the next 30 days, ranchers may have no other choice than to get rid of their whole herd.
“I’m seeing a lot more of the butcher cows and bulls, but people are kind of cleaning up the problems and what they don’t want. Not the whole herd. But, I do fear, in 30 days if something doesn’t change, we’re going to have a lot of whole herd dispersals,” he said.

North Kansas City community holds candlelight vigil for fallen Officer Daniel Vasquez
NORTH KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - The North Kansas City Police Department parking lot is full of flowers, notes and candles placed by mourning community members who held a candlelight vigil Wednesday night for Officer Daniel Vasquez.
Vasquez was killed in the line of duty Tuesday during a traffic stop for an expired temporary license plate around 10:40 a.m. near 21st and Clay in North Kansas City.
If convicted of first-degree murder, Joshua T. Rocha, the man prosecutors say confessed to killing Vasquez, could face the death penalty or spend the rest of his life in prison without parole.
As the sun began to set Wednesday, candles illuminated the police department parking lot. Many in the crowd needed a place to grieve.
“He was my baby brother,” Officer Vasquez’s sister, Areli Vasquez, said. “His dream was to be a police officer because he wanted to serve the community he wanted to be a hero. They took him away from us.”
Ever since a suspect shot and killed Vasquez, community members have stopped to place flowers, notes and keepsakes for Officer Vasquez, his family, and his coworkers.
“I had to stop and say a prayer. It’s a shame. It’s got to stop,” resident Rodney Welchen said. “This man was just doing his job.”
Teresa Stuckenschneider drove from Gladstone to bring flowers to a memorial at the police station.
“We have a really dear friend who is a sergeant,” Stuckenschneider said while holding back tears. “I didn’t know this man but I went to high school here, so we chose purple and gold flowers for him. To know that he was 32 years old is a devastating loss not only to this community, to Kansas City and to his family. We pray he is in heaven.”
“Thank you, everybody, for coming,” Areli Vasquez said. “I know he loved this community and every community he served.”
The first line of duty death in the North Kansas City Police Department’s history hit far too close to home for long time community members.
“I grew up in this city. I could ride my bike and walk without a fear about anything. We are all sad,” longtime NKC resident Ron Whited said. “He was shot and killed right next to my grandfather’s house. When I came down and discovered the memorial, I was taken aback.”
Local FOP Lodges have created a fund for Vasquez’s family. All donations go to support Officer Vasquez’s relatives. Donations are also being accepted at local Price Chopper stores.
After a line of duty death of a first responder, another local organization reaches out to support their grieving family within 24-48 hours. Representatives from the Surviving Spouse and Family Endowment, known as S.A.F.E., present them with a check for $25,000. The organization accepts donations to help ensure they have funding to help any relatives of first responders who lost their life in the line of duty.
“I say to them, this isn’t a family you ever wanted to be a part of, but you are now and we’re going to be there to support them going forward,” Raymore Police Chief and S.A.F.E. Director Jan Zimmerman said. “We make sure that those families are supported, you know, even after the tragedy has happened. It is always a good way to support first responders all throughout the metro. We cover 12 counties.”
On Wednesday, the Clay County Prosecutor announced prosecutors charged Rocha with first degree murder and armed criminal action. His bond is set at $2 million dollars. Court records show Rocha walked into the Clay County Courthouse Annex Tuesday and told an employee he needed to turn himself in. When asked why he said, “I committed a murder.”
Police say after he was read his Miranda rights, he admitted he shot the officer because he did not want to go to jail or have his car towed.
KCTV5 News found a warrant had previously been issued for Rocha after he failed to appear in court. He was previously charged in March of this year in North Kansas City Municipal Court.
According to a citation, Rocha displayed an expired Missouri temporary license plate, operated a motor vehicle while having a revoked license, failed to provide valid proof of insurance, possessed a digital scale and narcotics grinder with narcotic residue, and possessed a green leafy substance that tested positive for marijuana.
Rocha was charged with failure to register a vehicle, driving while suspended or revoked, operating a motor vehicle without maintaining financial responsibility, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana. A warrant was issued for failure to appear.
In a separate 2020 traffic stop, Rocha was charged with expired plates and driving while suspended or revoked. In both counts, a show cause summons for failure to appear was filed in court.
KCTV5 News plans to attend Rocha’s first court appearance for the first-degree murder and armed criminal action charges Thursday afternoon. Stay with KCTV5 for updates.

TRAVERSE CITY — Grand Traverse County Road Commission board members will get raises ranging from 40 percent to 45 percent after a two-hour presentation that provoked questions and critique.
The GTC Board of Commissioners approved the raises Wednesday, setting the annual salary for the chair at $9,000, the vice-chair at $8,500 and other members at $8,000. They are now paid $6,500, $6,000 and $5,500 respectively.
Raises were approved on a 4-2 vote, with commissioners Bryce Hundley and Betsy Coffia voting “no.” Commissioner Darryl V. Nelson was absent, as was Administrator Nate Alger, who was out of town on business.
This is the second time the salary increases have been on the commissioners’ agenda; the first time on June 1 when the issue was tabled until road commission board members — none of whom attended the June 1 meeting — could be there to answer questions.
On Wednesday, two members were present and Coffia asked Chairman Jason Gillman how taxpayer satisfaction with the road commission is rated and measured.
Coffia said she and other commissioners have heard “a steady drumbeat of constituent concerns about responsiveness from the road commission ... any raises that go beyond cost-of-living should probably be tied to customer satisfaction.”
Gillman said complaints should be separated from compensation.
“We’re accountable,” he said. “We take the same calls that you guys take for the reasons that you take them.”
When pushed for an answer, Gillman said, “I don’t know how to answer that question. I don’t think like you do.” He also called the raises a “pittance.”
During his report, road commission Manager Brad Kluczynski cited statistics that indicated they get 150 requests for service every month — most of which are about potholes, grading, trees, washouts and road shoulders. Their response time to complete those requests averages 10 days, he said.
On Wednesday, a couple of those constituents who are not happy with road commission service spoke during the public comment portion of the meeting, including Sandra Revnell, who said she has been waiting several months for an answer on connecting her 20-acre property with Bannister Road in Long Lake Township.
The property is landlocked by a 10- to 15-foot strip of land owned by the road commission, which has denied a driveway permit and recently suggested putting in a T-turnaround, rather than a cul-de-sac that would have cost Sandra and Justin Revnell $109,000, according to an estimate from 2019.
Revnell said she heard a road commissioner remark at a meeting that the commission has a laissez-faire attitude about various items under their purview.
“Considering it has been 25 weeks since first engaging with the board and nearly seven since the T-turnaround was brought to the table, I’m in full agreement with his statement,” Revnell said.
Another resident, Al Howard, lives on Matchett Road, which has deteriorated in recent years, he told the county board, since roads are no longer maintained with tarring, chipping and sealing.
“I am not in favor of any increases for the road commission board members,” Howard said.
A schedule of routine maintenance has gone by the wayside, he said. In addition, people who call the commission with a complaint are often told to call their township supervisor.
Kluczynski said people may be referred to townships to ask about larger projects because the township must pay for half of the work on local roads through a cost-sharing plan.
Work in subdivisions is funded through special assessment districts that tax the people who live there, although the road commission has no power to set an assessment district, he said.
“We are not directing them to the township. We are not saying that this is a township issue. We are saying that this road ... this project, if it is done, is a township cost-sharing plan,” Kluczynski said.
The commission recently updated that plan so that 120 miles of local roads now require no township match. Most of them are roads that are local, but function as primary roads, Kluczynski said.
All 83 counties in Michigan and 70 larger cities, by law, have to follow Asset Management Council guidelines that say 85 percent of primary roads have to be maintained in good or fair condition before focusing on local, or secondary, roads.
Matchett Road is scheduled for a total reconstruct next year, Kluczynski said.
The county has 290 miles of primary roads, 720 miles of local roads and 345 miles of unpaved gravel roads. By the end of this year, 90 percent of Grand Traverse County primary roads will be in that good to fair condition, an achievement that has put the county in 8th place in the state, Kluczynski said.
A web-based app will soon be in place to allow the public to report issues to the road commission. Users will know when their request for service is received and can track its progress.
Commissioner Brad Jewett said Kluczynski’s report was interesting, although took up a lot of meeting time. He suggested that Kluczynski attend more county board meetings, adding that he hasn’t seen him at a meeting since before the pandemic.
If he did attend more often, Jewett pointed out, his reports would not have to be so long. | https://www.record-eagle.com/news/road-commissioners-get-40-percent-raise/article_351a4114-0850-11ed-a315-83237faae679.html | 2022-07-21T11:44:31Z | https://www.record-eagle.com/news/road-commissioners-get-40-percent-raise/article_351a4114-0850-11ed-a315-83237faae679.html | false |
The suspect approached a 41-year-old man and spit in his face, according to police.
When the victim began recording him, the man grabbed an expandable baton, and began hitting him, then punching him in the face.
The incident happened on a southbound N train yesterday near the Fort Hamilton Avenue subway stop.
The victim was hospitalized and is expected to recover.
Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website at https://crimestoppers.nypdonline.org/, on Twitter @NYPDTips.
All calls are strictly confidential.

DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Dover (NYSE: DOV), a diversified global manufacturer, announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, Dover generated revenue of $2.2 billion, an increase of 6% (+7% organic) compared to the second quarter of the prior year. GAAP net earnings of $290 million increased 9%, and GAAP diluted EPS of $2.00 was up 10%. On an adjusted basis, net earnings of $309 million increased 3% and adjusted diluted EPS of $2.14 was up 4% versus the comparable quarter of the prior year.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Dover generated revenue of $4.2 billion, an increase of 8% (+8%% organic) compared to the comparable period of the prior year. GAAP net earnings of $516 million increased 4%, and GAAP diluted EPS of $3.56 was also up 4% year-over-year. On an adjusted basis, net earnings of $585 million increased 4%, and adjusted diluted EPS of $4.03 was also up 4% versus the comparable period of the prior year.
A full reconciliation between GAAP and adjusted measures and definitions of non-GAAP and other performance measures are included as an exhibit herein.
MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY:
Dover's President and Chief Executive Officer, Richard J. Tobin, said, "Our team delivered a strong second quarter performance which led to record quarterly revenue and sequential and year-over-year earnings growth, despite a difficult operating environment and significant foreign currency headwinds. Our backlog remains at a historically high level, providing a good line of sight for operational execution while new order bookings normalize as our lead times improve.
"Input shortages and the COVID-19 lockdowns in China negatively impacted shipment volumes and fixed cost absorption across multiple businesses. Despite these headwinds, our operating margin improved sequentially in the quarter, driven by cost controls, overall strong volume and meaningfully improving price-cost dynamics, which we expect to drive profitability in the second half of the year.
"Our strong balance sheet supports our disciplined capital allocation initiatives. We are investing in capacity expansions and productivity improvements across many operating companies to capture secular revenue growth opportunities and continue driving efficiencies. The recently-announced Malema acquisition closed on July 1 and we continue our pursuit of attractive bolt-on acquisitions. We also repurchased $85 million of our common stock in the second quarter and will continue to proactively evaluate various capital deployment alternatives through the remainder of the year.
"Our strong backlog, constructive demand and execution playbook tailored to various operating scenarios position us well to deliver revenue and earnings growth amidst continuing economic uncertainty. We are maintaining our 2022 adjusted full-year guidance."
FULL YEAR 2022 GUIDANCE:
In 2022, Dover expects to generate GAAP EPS in the range of $7.44 to $7.64 (adjusted EPS of $8.45 to $8.65), based on full year revenue growth of 8% to 10% (8% to 10% on an organic basis).
CONFERENCE CALL INFORMATION:
Dover will host a webcast and conference call to discuss its second quarter and year-to-date 2022 results at 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time (8:00 A.M. Central Time) on Thursday, July 21, 2022. The webcast can be accessed on the Dover website at dovercorporation.com. The conference call will also be made available for replay on the website.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS:
This press release contains "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. All statements in this document other than statements of historical fact are statements that are, or could be deemed, "forward-looking" statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous important risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company's control. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, the impacts of COVID-19, or other future pandemics, on the global economy and on our customers, suppliers, employees, business and cash flows, supply chain constraints and labor shortages that could result in production stoppages, inflation in material input costs and freight logistics, other general economic conditions and conditions in the particular markets in which we operate, the impact on global or a regional economy due to the outbreak or escalation of hostilities or war, changes in customer demand and capital spending, competitive factors and pricing pressures, our ability to develop and launch new products in a cost-effective manner, our ability to realize synergies from newly acquired businesses, and our ability to derive expected benefits from restructuring, productivity initiatives and other cost reduction actions. For details on the risks and uncertainties that could cause our results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained herein, we refer you to the documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. These documents are available from the Securities and Exchange Commission, and on our website, dovercorporation.com. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Measures Definitions
In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, management also discloses non-GAAP information that management believes provides useful information to investors. Adjusted net earnings, adjusted diluted net earnings per share, total segment earnings, adjusted segment EBITDA, adjusted segment EBITDA margin, free cash flow, free cash flow as a percentage of revenue, free cash flow as a percentage of adjusted net earnings, and organic revenue growth are not financial measures under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net earnings, diluted net earnings per share, cash flows from operating activities, or revenue as determined in accordance with GAAP, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Adjusted net earnings represents net earnings adjusted for the effect of purchase accounting expenses, restructuring and other costs/benefits, Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and gain/loss on dispositions. Purchase accounting expenses are primarily comprised of amortization of intangible assets and charges related to fair value step-ups for acquired inventory sold during the period. We exclude after-tax purchase accounting expenses because the amount and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions the Company consummates. While we have a history of acquisition activity, our acquisitions do not happen in a predictive cycle. Exclusion of purchase accounting expenses facilitates more consistent comparisons of operating results over time. We believe it is important to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. We exclude the other items because they occur for reasons that may be unrelated to the Company's commercial performance during the period and/or management believes they are not indicative of the Company's ongoing operating costs or gains in a given period.
Adjusted diluted net earnings per share or adjusted earnings per share represents diluted EPS adjusted for the effect of purchase accounting expenses, restructuring and other costs/benefits, Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and gain/loss on dispositions.
Total segment earnings is defined as the sum of earnings before purchase accounting expenses, restructuring and other costs/benefits, gain/loss on dispositions, corporate expenses/other, interest expense, interest income and provision for income taxes for all segments. Total segment earnings margin is defined as total segment earnings divided by revenue.
Adjusted segment EBITDA is defined as segment earnings plus other depreciation and amortization expense, which relates to property, plant, and equipment and intangibles, and excludes amounts related to purchase accounting expenses and restructuring and other costs. Adjusted segment EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted segment EBITDA divided by revenue.
Management believes the non-GAAP measures above are useful to investors to better understand the Company's ongoing profitability as they will better reflect the Company's core operating results, offer more transparency and facilitate easier comparability to prior and future periods and to its peers.
Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures. Free cash flow as a percentage of revenue equals free cash flow divided by revenue. Free cash flow as a percentage of adjusted net earnings equals free cash flow divided by adjusted net earnings. Management believes that free cash flow and free cash flow ratios are important measures of performance because it provides management and investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as funding acquisitions, paying dividends, repaying debt and repurchasing our common stock.
Management believes that reporting organic revenue growth, which excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of acquisitions and dispositions, provides a useful comparison of our revenue and bookings performance and trends between periods. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking organic revenue to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure because we are not able to provide a meaningful or accurate compilation of reconciling items. This is due to the inherent difficulty in accurately forecasting the timing and amounts of the items that would be excluded from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure or are out of our control. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of unavailable information which may be material.
Performance Measures Definitions
Bookings represent total orders received from customers in the current reporting period. This metric is an important measure of performance and an indicator of revenue order trends.
Organic bookings represent total orders received from customers in the current reporting period excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of acquisition and dispositions. This metric is an important measure of performance and an indicator of revenue order trends.
Backlog represents an estimate of the total remaining bookings at a point in time for which performance obligations have not yet have satisfied. This metric is useful as it represents the aggregate amount we expect to recognize as revenue in the future.
We use the above operational metrics in monitoring the performance of the business. We believe the operational metrics are useful to investors and other users of our financial information in assessing the performance of our segments.

"The second quarter was marked by robust loan growth, increased average deposit balances, and 6% sequential revenue growth, benefited by higher interest rates. We achieved our targeted expense level as we completed the TCF cost synergies and delivered sustained positive operating leverage. This superb performance demonstrated the growth potential of the Huntington franchise as we drive top tier financial results for our shareholders.
"The quality of our balance sheet remains a strength, and credit continues to perform exceptionally well with record low net charge-offs.Our outstanding credit performance reflects the disciplined approach, in line with our aggregate moderate-to-low risk appetite through the cycle. We were pleased to see this validated through the recent CCAR stress test results, which included loan portfolios from the TCF acquisition, as our modeled credit loss rates continued to be near best in class.
"Further, during the quarter, we added capabilities through bolt-on acquisitions in both Capstone and Torana. These acquisitions highlight the complementary capabilities we are adding to existing businesses and better positions us to serve our customers and support our organic growth plans.

In the premiere episode of the HBO Max comedy Rap Sh!t, executive producer Issa Rae's first major project post-Insecure, Shawna (Aida Osman), a socially conscious rapper, fervently announces her retirement from the rap game.
Never mind that she's a relatively unknown 20-something artist who's barely stepped foot in the game to begin with – after dropping out of college to work with a producer, she's found only fleeting, minor viral success, and that was ... two years ago. She's done. Out. Over an industry that only values female rappers who show off all their assets while putting in the "bare minimum with no originality."
To pay the bills, Shawna has been working the reception desk in a Miami hotel lobby by day while writing rhymes at night (think lyrics about "goddesses," "nurturers," and the "garden of Eden") under the stage name The Vision. In her accompanying videos, she dons a decorated face mask, a giant 'fro, and a hoodie, "because I want people to focus on my lyricism, not what I look like."
An admirable, if potentially non-lucrative, aim to have.
"Y'all say, 'I want a different type of female rapper.' ... NO YOU DON'T!" she bemoans to her handful of Instagram Live followers. "Cause you don't support me! You don't support any of us!"
She gives it another try
It's not spoiling things to say that Shawna comes out of retirement faster than Jay-Z did in the mid-'00s. After reconnecting with Mia (KaMillion), an estranged friend from high school who's now a single mother juggling multiple side hustles – makeup artistry, an OnlyFans page, and wealthy sugar daddies – Shawna rediscovers her love for rap and the two of them decide to form a rap duo. But that tension between artistry and commercialism, politics and entertainment, is a central recurring theme in this zeitgeist-y take on the current landscape of hip-hop and the music industry at large.
The show is at its freshest and funniest when this eternal struggle to strike a balance is front and center. As the one who embodies the flamboyant attitude and capitalistic ethos of many of the biggest current rappers (Meghan thee Stallion, Cardi B, and real-life analog and Rap Sh!t co-producers City Girls), Mia acts as a stand-in for the masses, pushing Shawna to loosen up a bit and think more commercially. The first time they sit down to write together, Shawna presents an expletive-laced, unintentionally silly verse where she's rapping from the perspective of student loans.
Mia, bewilderedly: "Why would I want a song to be about that?"
Shawna, sheepishly: "Everybody's affected by predatory lending."
Osman and KaMillion have strong banter and chemistry in these scenes, and their characters' dueling personalities and bonding anchor the episodes as they attempt to create and build a following on social media and within the local Miami scene. There have been plenty of shows and movies that have tapped into the absurdities and contradictions of being an aspiring rapper (Atlanta, Dave, or to go back much further, CB4), but it's refreshing to see it told from a woman's perspective, where the pathways to success are unarguably different in many ways. In this fruitful era where more female rappers than ever before are sharing space, collaborating, and finding success in the mainstream, Rap Sh!t attempts to both celebrate this progress and call into question the structural limitations that remain for women in rap through Shawna.
Clashing goals
The result can be a bit messy – does Shawna's embrace of more ratchet lyricism represent survival mode or selling out? It's not entirely clear, and only six of eight episodes were made available to critics ahead of the premiere – though perhaps that's a reflection more of the messiness of double standards than anything else. Her desire to Billie Eilish her sartorial aesthetic is treated like a punch line, and her grievances about the industry's lopsided standards and formulas for superstardom – get a man who wants to sleep with them to co-sign their aspirations, get cosmetic surgery and then flaunt it – are almost always shut down by someone else arguing "the game is the game" or that women in hip-hop are actually thriving on their own terms.
At the same time, her long-distance boyfriend Cliff (Devon Terrell), an uptight N.Y.U. law student who aims to be the next Barack Obama or Benjamin Crump, is dismissive of her aspirations and worried what they might mean for his political career. (His sexist roommates negatively refer to Mia as a "porn star" and snarkily comment that "We in a new era of women now. [Shawna] don't have to have to be Michelle, she can be Melania.") As plenty of women in hip-hop understand, no matter what you do, or don't do, misogyny will rear its ugly head from some corner or another.
A promising series
When Rap Sh!t falls back on more familiar elements, like the predictable way the relationship plays out with Cliff or a girls' night out that's nearly derailed by the imbibing of molly, it can drag a bit. And depending on how old you are, you may find the show's technique of presenting most scenes as though they were being shot on a phone for social media or via Facetime conversation to be exhausting or an accurate, immersive depiction of how so many people move and connect throughout the world. (Admittedly, I'm an aging 30-something millennial and found it unnecessary at times.)
But there's likely enough here for hip-hop fans and Insecure fans to chew on and be satisfied, while anticipating where Shawna and Mia will go next. As the latter astutely points out, we're in the middle of a "bad b---h renaissance," and these two characters are capturing (and capitalizing on) the moment.

Covey's analyst-owned community hosts hundreds of analysts–ranging from hobbyists to traditional finance industry veterans, and everyone in between– and is designed to find and reward the world's next top money managers. Top performers receive token rewards, and earn the option to become a Money Manager in Covey's copy trading fund.
NEW YORK, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Covey, the first analyst-owned community created to find and reward the world's next top money managers, closed a $2.5M seed round led by Social Leverage and Portage Ventures with participation from Cue Ball and BoxOne.
The barrier to entry for investing has been lowered thanks to fintechs enabling the mainstream adoption of commission-free investing, microinvesting, cryptocurrencies, and more. However, although someone might have the means to begin investing, retail investors in particular are likely to face obstacles in the way of actually seeing returns, and in turn creating any meaningful wealth. Those that are already actively investing lack market and strategy knowledge, causing over 85% of daytraders to actually lose money. Even 80% of professional fund managers trail behind the S&P 500. Further, many potentially talented analysts are generally locked out of the finance industry due to lacking a traditional education or professional network connections, or the high capital requirement of greater than $200K necessary to start a hedge fund.
Covey was founded as an investment community open to all, to find and rank the best and brightest stock analysts from around the world, so that everyone can benefit from the top performers, creating an unprecedented amount of wealth-making opportunities for all.
For the past year, Covey hosted over a hundred anonymized analysts on the blockchain-enabled platform, tracking their simulated stock picks on Covey's leaderboard, with the users that have the best performing portfolios receiving monetary rewards. Going forward, Covey will reward the best ideas with tokens, recognizing the members contributing the most to the community. Soon, Covey will award the top 10% of analysts with the opportunity to publish their investment ideas to Covey users, who can then implement the analysts' strategies for themselves through the Covey platform. This will allow Covey's users to be able to benefit from the ideas of these proven investors , armed with a transparent view of their performance and investing philosophies, all tracked on the blockchain. Additionally, earning potential is unlimited for analysts as they can receive returns from other users who are leveraging their content.
Covey was founded by Brooker Belcourt, an established investor who spent the last 7 years managing investments for Citadel, a Tiger Management Seeded Fund, and Coatue. Brooker built Covey as a personal tool to simulate and track his own portfolio strategies, but soon realized Covey could be a ubiquitous tool for the future of active management.
"Having spent 7 years personally overseeing ideas at large hedge funds, I learned how hard it was to beat the market, but I also saw a small group of Analysts that consistently won. That talent can come from any background, we need an open platform to find the Analysts that can consistently beat the market and allocate money to them," said Brooker Belcourt, Founder, and CEO of Covey. "It's no secret that traditionally, Wall Street has only been accessible to those who could afford prestigious educations or with deep enough pockets to open a hedge fund, but that doesn't necessarily mean that these are the best people to be heading up investing strategies. Covey is allowing everyone the opportunity to test their strategies and then those with the best performance–whether it be a well-read flight attendant using their downtime to get smart on stocks, a young up-and-coming student who spends a lot of time on Reddit and Twitter, or your traditional financial services industry veteran that frequents the Wall Street Journal–can become money managers based purely on merit. We've seen from recent events fueled by retail investors, that when smart, strategic investors work together, they can beat the market, and we're excited about scaling this community."
Covey will use the funds to continue building its platform, with an emphasis on its token launching this fall and copy trading launching in 2023. A copy trading functionality will be groundbreaking for both the future money managers and a broader set of investors using the platform as they'll be able to leverage these proven strategies with more ease and efficiency, allowing investors to make the most of the money they're able to invest. Additionally, Covey is expanding the engineering team, with plans to almost double its size by the end of the year.
"I invested in Covey because of the founding team, and I believe the best investment analysts have yet to be found. Covey has built both a platform and community that will find and reward the next generation of great analysts," said Howard Lindzon, Founder and Managing Partner of Social Leverage. "Active investing has been losing trillions to indexing and machines over the last decade, when Covey adds Copy trading it will offer a new generation of active managers the opportunity to practice their trade."
Covey's mission is to empower anyone to create wealth by finding, rewarding, and training the next top investment managers —from any background—that anyone can copy, so everyone can win. Covey removes the traditional barriers to connect investors directly to proven top performing investment managers. The top 10% of analysts earn the option to become an investment manager on Covey's Copy Trading app (launching 2023), offering unlimited earning potential as independent investors invest alongside them.

Juventus unveil starry 2022-23 away kit inspired by night matches
Juventus has released their 2022-23 away kit which takes inspiration from night matches played at the team's home stadium. The club moves away from its classic striped pattern to a black colourway lit with a starry design that represents the club's history.

White accents through the thin sleeve cuffs and collar add a pop of brightness. The combined design elements create a shirt that perfectly captures the night atmosphere at the Allianz Arena and the stars that grace its pitch.
The new jersey is made with 100% recycled materials and features HEAT.RDY–KEEP COOL, adidas's latest innovation designed to keep players cool and dry.

SANTA ROSA COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) — A school board candidate in Santa Rosa County, Florida publicly stated that doctors who prescribe gender-affirming treatments to transgender children should be hung from trees.
According to a Pensacola News Journal report, Alisabeth Janai Lancaster made the comment during a political forum Monday night.
“These doctors that are going along with mutilating these children and prescribing hormone blockers to these kids, in my opinion, they should be hanging from the nearest tree,” Lancaster said. The statement was reportedly met by applause from the audience.
The “Closing Arguments” forum, held for the county’s conservative-leaning candidates and organized by the Gulf Coast Patriots, was hosted at a Catholic church near downtown Navarre.
Despite school board seats being non-partisan, Lancaster was reportedly endorsed by the Santa Rosa County Republican Executive Committee. The Pensacola News Journal reached out to the committee’s chairman, Rita Gunter, to see if the county Republicans still backed Lancaster, but she declined to comment. Lancaster also did not return the News Journal’s request for comment.
Another Republican candidate present at the forum, however, criticized her comments.
“I’ll always stand on the side of parent’s rights and protecting our kids, but it’s wrong to joke about lynching political opponents,” state Rep. Alex Andrade said in a written statement. “We should never call for the murder of the Americans that disagree with us.”
It is unclear whether or not Lancaster’s comments were intended as “a joke”, as Andrade described. Transgender rights supporters in Northwest Florida stressed the seriousness of Lancaster’s statement.
“I feel like she just said the quiet part of what conservatives believe,” Devin Cole — president of the Socialist Trans Initiative, or STRIVE, a self-described left-wing local advocacy organization that supports transgender people — told the News Journal. “It’s a disgusting and deplorable comment and a reminder that we absolutely have to unite and fight these horrible reactionary people who want to kill us.”
Experts in pediatrics support providing gender-affirming care to transgender children. The Florida chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), an organization of over 67,000 pediatricians, issued a statement in April rejecting new Florida Department of Health guidelines advising doctors not to provide treatments like hormone blockers to transgender children.
A joint statement in April 2021 from six major medical associations, including the AAP, stated the following: “Our organizations are strongly opposed to any legislation or regulation that would interfere with the provision of evidence-based patient care for any patient, affirming our commitment to patient safety.” | https://www.yourcentralvalley.com/news/u-s-world/florida-school-board-candidate-doctors-who-treat-transgender-kids-should-be-hanging-from-tree/ | 2022-07-21T12:23:31Z | https://www.yourcentralvalley.com/news/u-s-world/florida-school-board-candidate-doctors-who-treat-transgender-kids-should-be-hanging-from-tree/ | true |
Families on summer getaways face three-hour queues at Dover
Families embarking on summer getaways at the start of school holidays are being caught in long queues at the Port of Dover.
Ferry operators warned passengers to expect delays of several hours at the border.
DFDS wrote: “Please allow three hours to complete the check-in process and border controls at the port.”
P&O Ferries stated: “There are major queues (approximately two hours) at border controls in Dover.
“Our check-in is free-flowing and all sailings are on time.”
Another company, Irish Ferries, told passengers: “Due to expected queues, please allow up to two hours to complete border control and check-in.

“Have documents ready to assist border control checks and reduce queueing time.”
All three operators said delayed passengers would be allowed to travel on the next available sailing.
Last week, the Port of Dover stated that passengers should “expect average wait times of around 60-90 minutes for French border controls at the port during peak periods”. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11035557/Families-summer-getaways-face-three-hour-queues-Dover.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-07-21T12:23:58Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11035557/Families-summer-getaways-face-three-hour-queues-Dover.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false |

U.S. insurer Travelers posts plunge in profit as catastrophe claims mount
July 21 (Reuters) - Property and casualty insurer Travelers Companies Inc reported a nearly 29% fall in quarterly profit on Thursday, hurt by higher catastrophe-related claims and lower returns on its investments.
The company's core income fell to $625 million, or $2.57 per share, in the second quarter ended June 30, from $879 million, or $3.45 per share, a year earlier.
New York-based Travelers, often seen as a bellwether for the insurance sector as it typically reports before its industry peers, said net written premiums rose 11% to $9.02 billion in the quarter.
The insurance industry had over the past two years faced claims from businesses losing revenue because of the coronavirus-led crisis and canceled events among others, even though many have been insulated by virus exclusions in their contracts.
While pandemic-related claims have slowed, the insurance industry now faces hefty claims from the Ukraine crisis and greater uncertainty brought on by higher claims costs this year from inflation.
Travelers reported catastrophe loss net of reinsurance of $746 million in the quarter, compared with $475 million a year earlier, impacted mainly by severe wind and hail storms in several regions of the United States.
Global insured catastrophe losses in the first half of 2022 were estimated at $39 billion - 18% higher than the 21st century average of $33 billion, with severe convective storm events in the United States and Europe alone accounting for 54% of the total, according to broker Aon.
Underwriting gains fell to $113 million from $324 million a year earlier, while pretax net investment income dropped to $707 million from $818 million a year earlier.
The company reported a combined ratio of 98.3%, compared with 95.3% a year earlier. A ratio below 100% means the insurer earned more in premiums than it paid out in claims.

Microcontroller Market Regional Outlook, and Survey Report 2030
Posted on 2022-07-21 by researchinsights in Industrial // 0 Comments
Microcontroller Industry Overview
The global microcontroller market size is expected to reach USD 41.6 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.8% from 2022 to 2030. Globally, more than 27 billion units of microcontrollers were shipped in 2021. The market growth is attributed to the increasing focus on automation and artificial intelligence across various verticals such as automotive and industrial. Increasing demand for embedded control systems in multifunctional devices such as vehicles, robots, medical devices, mobile radio, and residential appliances is also playing a principal role in the growth of the market.
Microcontroller Market Segmentation
Grand View Research has segmented the global microcontroller market on the basis of product, application, and region:
Based on the Product Type Insights, the market is segmented into 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit.
- In terms of revenue, the 32-bit segment dominated the market with a share of over 40.0% in 2021. This large share is attributed to the increasing use of these MCUs for automotive applications and rapidly decreasing average selling prices. The 32-bit technology simplifies the product design and lowers the material costs, and it has 32 pathways in parallel for data transmission.
- 8-bit MCU is expected to witness slower growth in the years to come owing to processing speed, which generally runs at 8 MHz and does not have substantial internal Random-Access Memory (RAM).
Based on the Application Insights, the market is segmented into Automotive, Consumer Electronics & Telecom, Industrial, Medical Devices, Aerospace & Defense, and Others.
- The consumer electronics and telecom application segment held the largest revenue share of over 45.0% in 2021 and is expected to register the fastest CAGR from 2022 to 2030. This segment is driven by the miniaturization of consumer devices and the increasing adoption of consumer electronic products such as cameras, televisions, washing machines, and microwave ovens.
- The medical devices segment is expected to witness increasing demand for microcontrollers over the forecast period owing to various factors such as the high demand for accuracy in medical procedures, technological advancements, government support for medical automation, and increasing R&D investments for the development of MCUs that are required in advanced medical equipment.
- The automotive segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. This is attributed to the increasing demand for microcontrollers for enhanced car safety features, convenience functions, entertainment systems, and government edicts on emission control. This application sector is also expected to witness significant growth over the coming years owing to the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS).

Even before last month's Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, a growing number of people were traveling across state lines for abortions.
Nearly 1 in 10 abortions in 2020 were provided to patients who'd crossed state lines, according to a report released Thursday by the Guttmacher Institute. That's up from 6% in 2011. As the report notes, the increase occurred as a growing number of states were passing abortion restrictions.
Interstate travel for abortion is expected to continue to increase as more states enact abortion bans in response to the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision, issued on June 24.
"These are a baseline for the changes that we expect to see and already are seeing as much more restrictions are occurring in the wake of Dobbs," said Isaac Maddow-Zimet, who co-authored the report for Guttmacher, a research group that supports abortion rights.
Maddow-Zimet notes that the report looks at data from both before Dobbs and before the implementation of SB 8, an abortion ban that took effect in Texas in September 2021.
Already, clinics in states like Colorado and Illinois, which have less restrictive laws, have been reporting an influx of patients from neighboring states.
The report looked at not only where abortions were provided but also where patients were from.
It found that abortion restrictions did not necessarily translate to fewer abortions. In Missouri, for example, the number of abortions provided there dropped significantly between 2017 and 2020. During the same period, the abortion rate for residents increased by 18% when out-of-state abortions were taken into account.
"We're going to see more and more of those kinds of situations, as more and more states put bans in place, where most residents are going to have to travel out of state for care," Maddow-Zimet said.
Guttmacher examined data from sources including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, state health departments and its own survey of abortion providers. The report did not capture self-induced abortions, which many experts predict will become increasingly common, particularly for people in states with abortion bans.

MOSCOW (AP) — The spokesperson for Russia's Foreign Ministry lashed out Thursday at the United States characterizing basketball star Brittney Griner's jailing on drug charges as “wrongful detention,” saying it shows disrespect for Russian law.
Griner has been jailed since she was arrested in mid-February at a Moscow airport after vape canisters containing cannabis oil were found in her luggage. The Phoenix Mercury standout and two-time Olympic gold medalist acknowledged in court this month that she had the canisters, but said she had no intent to break the law.
She faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted. Her trial is scheduled to resume Tuesday.
The State Department in May designated Griner as wrongfully detained, moving her case under the supervision of its special presidential envoy for hostage affairs - effectively, the government’s chief hostage negotiator.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Thursday that the legalization of cannabis for medical and recreational use in parts of the U.S. has no bearing on what happens in Russia.
“If a U.S. citizen was taken in connection with the fact that she was smuggling drugs, and she does not deny this, then this should be commensurate with our Russian, local laws, and not with those adopted in San Francisco, New York and Washington,” Zakharova said.
“You understand, if drugs are legalized in the United States, in a number of states, and this is done for a long time, and now the whole country will become drug-addicted, this does not mean that all other countries are following the same path,” she added.
Russian media have persistently speculated that Griner could be exchanged for prominent Russian arms trader Viktor Bout, who is imprisoned in the United States, and that Paul Whelan, an American imprisoned in Russia for espionage, may also figure in an exchange.
U.S. officials have not commented on the prospects for such a trade. Russian officials have said no exchange could be discussed until the conclusion of the legal proceedings against Griner. It is unclear how long the trial will last, but a court has authorized Griner's detention until Dec. 20. | https://www.ourmidland.com/sports/article/Moscow-says-US-must-respect-Russian-law-in-Griner-17319154.php | 2022-07-21T12:28:30Z | https://www.ourmidland.com/sports/article/Moscow-says-US-must-respect-Russian-law-in-Griner-17319154.php | false |
LONDON (AP) — The U.K. Supreme Court said Thursday it will hold hearings in October on whether Scotland can call an independence referendum without the consent of the British government.
Pro-independence Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has said she intends to hold a plebiscite on secession on Oct. 19, 2023. Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s U.K. government says it won’t allow it because Scots rejected independence in a 2014 referendum that was billed as a once-in-a-generation vote. A vote held without the approval of the London government would not be legally binding.
Sturgeon’s Scottish government has asked the Supreme Court to rule on whether it can legislate to hold the vote if the U.K. government does not give the go-ahead.
The court said Thursday it will hear the arguments from both sides on Oct. 11 and 12.
Sturgeon and her Scottish National Party argue that Britain’s departure from the European Union and the coronavirus pandemic have upended politics and the economy and that it’s time to revisit the case for independence. British voters narrowly approved Brexit in a 2016 referendum, but those in Scotland voted strongly to stay in the EU.
Like Wales and Northern Ireland, Scotland has its own parliament and government and makes its own policies on public health, education and other matters. But the U.K.-wide government in London controls matters such as defense and fiscal policy.
Sturgeon’s party leads a pro-independence majority in the Scottish parliament, together with the Scottish Green Party, and she argues that the Scottish parliament has an “indisputable democratic mandate” for a new independence vote.
Even if the referendum does go ahead as proposed, a majority vote will not by itself make Scotland independent from the rest of the U.K. Sturgeon has said that “for Scotland to become independent following a yes vote, legislation would have to be passed by the U.K. and Scottish Parliaments.” | https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/UK-Supreme-Court-to-hear-Scottish-independence-17319189.php | 2022-07-21T12:29:04Z | https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/UK-Supreme-Court-to-hear-Scottish-independence-17319189.php | false |
- Based on preliminary results, INEO expects to achieve record revenue for Q4-2022 and for its fiscal year 2022, ending June 30, 2022.
- INEO's sales activities are accelerating with the Company's sales pipeline climbing to approximately $40 million in annual recurring revenue.
SURREY, BC, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - INEO Tech Corp. (TSX-V: INEO) (OTCQB: INEOF) (the "Company" or "INEO"), the innovative developer and operator of the INEO Media Network, a digital advertising and analytics solution for retailers, is pleased to provide the following business update following its fiscal fourth quarter and fiscal year ending June 30, 2022.
INEO continues to show impressive growth as the Company is poised to deliver another quarter of record revenues in Q4-2022 with growth approaching 90% over Q4-2021. The Company is also on track for achieving record financial performance for the full fiscal year and is continuing to execute on its direct sales and channel sales opportunities.
INEO's sales pipeline has grown from $20 million annual recurring revenue to now over $40 million annual recurring revenue, based on the potential full contract value with retail chains who have currently installed or committed pilot installations. INEO has active pilots and commitments with large retail chains through its direct sales efforts as well as the Prosegur global distribution partnership channel. These retailers represent a broad spectrum of industries including grocery, apparel, wholesale club, hardware, department store and pharmacy chains.
"INEO is performing better than ever and is on track to exceed our previous quarter's performance with another record high in revenue for Q4-2022," said Kyle Hall, CEO of INEO. "Growth in the fourth quarter is approaching 90% year-over-year despite the increasing interest rates, significant supply chain disruptions, inflationary concerns and other macroeconomic challenges currently affecting other companies around the globe. The Company has not felt any recessionary impacts and is instead experiencing accelerated growth with new pilot systems being installed with new retailers and advertising fill rates increasing with the growth of the INEO Media Network. Furthermore, our ramping revenue and improving gross margins are assisting our cash flow profile and we will continue to control our operating expenses."
INEO's advertising fill rates have increased tremendously on the INEO Media Network. INEO has had over 30 brands or advertisers who have utilized the power of the INEO Media Network and INEO recently launched its largest advertising campaign to date. Brands are choosing to add the INEO Media Network to their advertising mix, due to the company's unique ability to give advertisers access to retail customer across both online and in-store channels. INEO is continuing to capitalize on this opportunity and as the Company expands the footprint of the retail Media Network, INEO is expecting to generate increasing revenues throughout the second half of 2022.
INEO will be holding a webinar to provide an update on the business and the Company's future outlook, on Wednesday, July 27, 2022 at 10:00 am PT (1:00 pm ET). The call will be hosted by: Kyle Hall, Chief Executive Officer; Greg Watkin, Chairman and President, and Pardeep S. Sangha, Head of Investor Relations.

KHARKIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian shelling pounded a densely populated area in Ukraine’s second-largest city Thursday, killing at least two people and injuring at least 21 with a barrage that struck a mosque, a medical facility and a shopping area, according to officials and witnesses at the scene.
Police in the northeast city of Kharkiv said cluster bombs hit Barabashovo Market. a public bazaar where Associated Press journalists saw a woman crying over her dead husband’s body. Local officials said the shelling also struck a bus stop, a gym and a residential building.
The bombardment came after Russia on Wednesday reiterated its plans to seize territories beyond eastern Ukraine, where the Russian military has spent months trying to conquer Ukraine’s Donbas region, which is south of Kharkiv. Ukrainian officials recently aired their plans to try to recapture Russian-occupied areas near the country’s southern Black Sea coast.
Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov said the attacks early Thursday targeted one of the most crowded areas of the city, which had a prewar population of about 1.4 million.
“The Russian army is randomly shelling Kharkiv, peaceful residential areas, civilians are being killed,” Terekhov said. “Be careful!”
The police claim that cluster bombs hit Barabashovo Market could not be independently confirmed. The AP journalists at the scene shortly after the attack reported seeing burned-out cards and a bus pierced by shrapnel.
The Kharkiv region’s governor, Oleh Syniehubov, said four people were in grave condition and a child was among those wounded in the shelling. Russian forces also have shelled wheat fields in the area, setting them on fire, he said.
Elsewhere, Russian forces shelled the southern city of Mykolaiv overnight as well as the eastern cities of Kramatorsk and Kostiantynivka, where two schools were destroyed after a civilian was killed Wednesday, Ukrainian officials said.
As of 8 a.m. Thursday, Russian shelling of cities across Ukraine killed at least five people and wounded at least 17 more in 24 hours, Ukraine’s presidential office reported.
The scattered attacks illustrate broader war aims beyond Russia’s previously declared focus on the Donbas region’s Donetsk and Luhansk provinces, where front line battles mostly unfolded in recent weeks.
When it invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, Russia quickly seized territory but withdrew from the capital region and north after about six weeks to concentrate on seizing Donetsk and Luhansk, which pro-Moscow separatists have partly controlled since 2014.
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told state-controlled RT television and the RIA Novosti news agency in an interview published Wednesday that Russia plans to retain control over more territory, including the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions in the south.
Moscow’s current strategy also envisions making gains elsewhere, Lavrov said. His comments indicated the war could flare up rather than wind down in the weeks to come.
With Western countries providing Ukraine with longer-range weapons, Lavrov said Russia’s “geographical tasks will be pushed even further from the current line because we cannot allow the part of Ukraine under control of (Ukrainian President Volodymyr) Zelenskyy or whoever comes to succeed him, to have weapons that will pose a direct threat to our territory and the territories of those republics that have declared their independence.”
Analysts from the Institute for the Study of War, a think tank based in Washington, said they think the current Russian offensive in Donetsk may result in the capture of the cities of Sloviansk or Bakhmut, though Moscow’s troops have have not yet made “meaningful” progress.
The think tank’s latest analysis t also noted that “Russian troops are now struggling to move across relatively sparsely-settled and open terrain. They will encounter terrain much more conducive to the Ukrainian defenders,” the Institute’s most recent analysis said.
The General Staff of Ukraine’s military reported Thursday that Russian forces attempted to storm the Vuhlehirska power station in the Donetsk region, but “Ukrainian defenders made the enemy resort to fleeing.” Ukraine forces also on Wednesday struck a key bridge on the Dnieper River for the second time in as many days, apparently trying to loosen Russia’s grip on the southern Kherson region.
“Russia is prioritizing the capture of critical national infrastructure, such as power plants,” the British Defense Ministry said Thursday. “However, it is probably also attempting to break through at Vuhlehirska, as part of its efforts to regain momentum on the southern pincer of its advance towards the key cities of Kramatorsk and Sloviansk.”
Fighting also persists in the Luhansk region, next to Donetsk, but it has not been fully captured by the Russian military, governor Serhiy Haidai said.
In other developments on Thursday:
— The operator of a major pipeline from Russia to Europe says natural gas has started flowing again after a 10-day shutdown for maintenance. But the gas flow was expected to fall well short of full capacity and the outlook was uncertain. The Nord Stream 1 pipeline to Germany had been closed since July 11 for annual maintenance work. The pipeline is Germany’s main source of Russian gas. German officials had feared that the pipeline might not reopen at all amid growing tensions over Russia’s war in Ukraine. Operator Nord Stream AG said that gas was flowing again Thursday morning and its network data showed gas beginning to arrive.
— Swiss technology, industrial products and robotics company ABB said it is exiting the Russian market over the war in Ukraine and related sanctions. The company previously suspended accepting new orders from Russia after the invasion of Ukraine. The Zurich-based company, which has two production sites and about 750 people in Russia, posted a second quarter hit of $57 million in financial impact due to the situation. The company says Russia accounted for 1%-2% of its annual revenues – which totaled nearly $29 billion last year – before it stopped taking new orders from Russia.

LOS ANGELES and WASHINGTON, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- MPLC and the American Hotel Lodging Association (AHLA) today jointly announced that they have entered into a partnership to support audiovisual copyright compliance in member hotel locations.
The partnership establishes a framework by which MPLC and AHLA will work together to teach members strategies for using movies and TV to increase business, and also to advise members of the risks of failing to comply with copyright laws. Ideas and information will be shared via an MPLC educational strategy that will include direct marketing and online outreach. In addition, MPLC has committed to providing a special member rate on its Umbrella License® for association members.
"Public performances of audiovisual works are a common part of hotel operations and can help enhance the guest experience," said Chip Rogers, president and CEO of AHLA. "We are proud to have MPLC as an AHLA Allied member, and we appreciate that they offer a generous discount to AHLA member hotels. With a license from MPLC, hotels can ensure legal compliance, while supporting the artists behind the movies and shows they enjoy."
Since its founding in 1986, MPLC has taken an educational approach to the licensing of television, movies, and other audiovisual content, forging partnerships with industry associations in a variety of verticals to educate businesses about copyright compliance.
"We are excited to be working with the American Hotel Lodging Association," said Dave Davis, Chief Commercial Officer at MPLC. "They are committed to ensuring the success of America's hotel industry. One component of that is helping their members find creative ways to bring the magic of movies and TV to their businesses in a cost-effective way, all while ensuring copyright compliance."
According to the US Copyright Act, Title 17 of the United States Code, copyrighted movies, television, and other audiovisual content originally intended for personal, private use, require a public performance license when exhibited in public. Showing audiovisual content in auto dealerships and other public spaces via broadcast, cable, or satellite television; DVDs, downloads, or streaming services requires a public performance license.

(NEXSTAR) – If you’re stuck at home with COVID-19 right now, you’re far from alone. The U.S. is undergoing another major surge in coronavirus cases, driven by two new types of the omicron variant.
BA.4 and BA.5, both subvariants of the highly contagious omicron, make up more than 90% of new cases in the country, according to tracking done by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
There are a few reasons these two subvariants – especially the dominant BA.5 – are spreading like wildfire and making such a big impact in the U.S. right now.
BA.4 and BA.5 are sneakier
Early evidence suggests BA.4 and BA.5 aren’t more contagious than the original strain of omicron. However, it appears they are better at evading prior immunity.
That means people with some immunity – either from vaccines or past COVID infection – are still susceptible to infection from BA.5.
Plus, it’s been more than six months since our last major national surge of the first omicron variant. People infected in that wave may likely have gotten some boosted immunity, but that window has passed for most of us.
“The good news is that the vast majority of breakthrough infections now are outpatient illnesses,” said Dean Blumberg, UC Davis Children’s Hospital’s chief of pediatric infectious diseases. “They are not resulting in the kind of severe illness that we saw earlier in the pandemic when no one had immunity, which led to increased hospitalizations and deaths.”
People are testing at home, if at all
While you may feel like you know more people catching COVID than ever before, case rates tracked by public health departments don’t seem to reflect a massive surge. The New York Times’ thorough COVID tracker shows a rise in new cases, but the latest curve is dwarfed by last winter’s surge.
Epidemiologists agree that COVID-19 cases are severely undercounted right now.
“With the home testing, we’ve lost our ability to track based on reported cases,” said Dr. George Rutherford, an epidemiologist at the University of California, San Francisco.
When someone tests positive for the virus at home, that case often goes unreported to public health officials, leaving us with a murkier idea of how widely BA.5 is spreading.
On top of that, milder symptoms mean fewer people may be testing themselves. If they never test for the virus, they may continue to spread it unknowingly in the community.
COVID restrictions are gone
The original wave of coronavirus cases – before we had vaccines – triggered widespread restrictions, closures and masking requirements. The delta surge of summer 2021 and the original omicron wave of last winter had more cautious localities and states reinstate mask mandates. Now, there are nearly no COVID-19 restrictions left nationwide.
With less masking and more intermixing, the virus can spread more quickly through a community.
The CDC recommends wearing a mask indoors if your county is experiencing a “high” level of COVID transmission. As of Tuesday, more than a third of U.S. counties were in that category. You can check your county’s status on the CDC’s map. | https://www.wane.com/community/health/coronavirus/why-it-feels-like-practically-everyone-has-covid-right-now/ | 2022-07-21T12:32:27Z | https://www.wane.com/community/health/coronavirus/why-it-feels-like-practically-everyone-has-covid-right-now/ | false |
SANTA ROSA COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) — A school board candidate in Santa Rosa County, Florida publicly stated that doctors who prescribe gender-affirming treatments to transgender children should be hung from trees.
According to a Pensacola News Journal report, Alisabeth Janai Lancaster made the comment during a political forum Monday night.
“These doctors that are going along with mutilating these children and prescribing hormone blockers to these kids, in my opinion, they should be hanging from the nearest tree,” Lancaster said. The statement was reportedly met by applause from the audience.
The “Closing Arguments” forum, held for the county’s conservative-leaning candidates and organized by the Gulf Coast Patriots, was hosted at a Catholic church near downtown Navarre.
Despite school board seats being non-partisan, Lancaster was reportedly endorsed by the Santa Rosa County Republican Executive Committee. The Pensacola News Journal reached out to the committee’s chairman, Rita Gunter, to see if the county Republicans still backed Lancaster, but she declined to comment. Lancaster also did not return the News Journal’s request for comment.
Another Republican candidate present at the forum, however, criticized her comments.
“I’ll always stand on the side of parent’s rights and protecting our kids, but it’s wrong to joke about lynching political opponents,” state Rep. Alex Andrade said in a written statement. “We should never call for the murder of the Americans that disagree with us.”
It is unclear whether or not Lancaster’s comments were intended as “a joke”, as Andrade described. Transgender rights supporters in Northwest Florida stressed the seriousness of Lancaster’s statement.
“I feel like she just said the quiet part of what conservatives believe,” Devin Cole — president of the Socialist Trans Initiative, or STRIVE, a self-described left-wing local advocacy organization that supports transgender people — told the News Journal. “It’s a disgusting and deplorable comment and a reminder that we absolutely have to unite and fight these horrible reactionary people who want to kill us.”
Experts in pediatrics support providing gender-affirming care to transgender children. The Florida chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), an organization of over 67,000 pediatricians, issued a statement in April rejecting new Florida Department of Health guidelines advising doctors not to provide treatments like hormone blockers to transgender children.
A joint statement in April 2021 from six major medical associations, including the AAP, stated the following: “Our organizations are strongly opposed to any legislation or regulation that would interfere with the provision of evidence-based patient care for any patient, affirming our commitment to patient safety.” | https://www.yourbasin.com/news/national-news/florida-school-board-candidate-doctors-who-treat-transgender-kids-should-be-hanging-from-tree/ | 2022-07-21T12:33:55Z | https://www.yourbasin.com/news/national-news/florida-school-board-candidate-doctors-who-treat-transgender-kids-should-be-hanging-from-tree/ | true |
STAMFORD, Conn., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Webster Financial Corporation (NYSE: WBS), the holding company for Webster Bank, N.A. and its HSA Bank division, today announced net income available to common shareholders of $178.1 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to $92.1 million, or $1.01 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.
Second quarter 2022 results include $66.5 million pre-tax, ($50.5 million after tax), or $0.29 per diluted share, of merger-related expenses. Excluding these expenses, earnings per diluted share would have been $1.29 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Reported results prior to the first quarter of 2022 reflect legacy Webster Financial results only.
"Our second quarter performance is a great reflection of the strength of Webster," said John R. Ciulla, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We achieved strong and diverse loan growth, the quality of our core deposit franchise was evident in this rising rate environment, and we maintained our strong capital position, providing flexibility as we operate through a changing macro environment."
Highlights for the second quarter of 2022:
- Revenue of $607.6 million.
- Period end loan and lease balance of $45.6 billion; 80 percent commercial loans and leases, 20 percent consumer loans, and a loan to deposit ratio of 86 percent.
- Period end deposit balance of $53.1 billion.
- Provision for credit losses totaled $12.2 million.
- Charges related to the merger and strategic initiatives totaled $66.5 million.
- Return on average assets of 1.10 percent; adjusted 1.41 percent (non-GAAP).
- Return on average tangible common equity of 14.50 percent; adjusted 18.45 percent (non-GAAP).
- Net interest margin of 3.28 percent includes net accretion of 0.19 percent.
- Common equity tier 1 ratio of 11.04 percent.
- Efficiency ratio (non-GAAP) of 45.25 percent.
- Tangible common equity ratio of 7.68 percent.

"Our financial performance illustrates both merger synergies and the organic growth we anticipate our company will produce," said Glenn MacInnes, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "On an adjusted basis, we generated a return on assets of 1.41 percent and return on tangible common equity of 18.5 percent. Earnings improvement was broad, with interest income, fees and expenses all trending positively."
Increases in the balance sheet and income statement, when compared to a year ago, are largely attributable to the merger with Sterling Bancorp on January 31, 2022.
Line of Business performance compared to the second quarter of 2021
Commercial Banking
Webster's Commercial Banking segment serves businesses that have more than $2 million of revenue through our business banking, middle market, asset-based lending, equipment finance, commercial real estate, sponsor finance, and treasury services business units. Additionally, our Wealth group provides wealth management solutions to business owners, operators, and consumers within our targeted markets and retail footprint. As of June 30, 2022, Commercial Banking had $36.6 billion in loans and leases and $20.5 billion in deposit balances.
Pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue increased $167.4 million to $280.1 million in the quarter as compared to prior year. The increase in balances and income was largely attributable to the merger. Net interest income increased $192.8 million to $333.4 million, with $177.1 million driven by the merger, and $15.7 million due to loan and deposit growth in the legacy Webster portfolios. Non-interest income increased $31.1 million to $49.4 million, with $27.6 million driven by the merger, and $3.5 million primarily driven by increased client hedging activity and growth in loan related fees. Non-interest expense increased $56.4 million to $102.7 million, with $50.6 million due to the merger, and $5.8 million primarily to support loan and deposit growth in the legacy Webster portfolios.
HSA Bank
Webster's HSA Bank division offers a comprehensive consumer-directed healthcare solution that includes health savings accounts, health reimbursement arrangements, flexible spending accounts and commuter benefits. Health savings accounts are distributed nationwide directly to employers and individual consumers, as well as through national and regional insurance carriers, benefit consultants and financial advisors. As of June 30, 2022, HSA Bank had $11.1 billion in total footings comprising $7.8 billion in deposit balances and $3.3 billion in assets under administration through linked investment accounts.
Pre-tax net revenue increased $2.2 million to $38.6 million in the quarter as compared to prior year. Net interest income increased $7.4 million to $49.6 million, primarily due to an increase in net deposit spread and growth in deposits. Non-interest income was flat at $26.6 million. Non-interest expense increased $5.1 million to $37.5 million, primarily due to incremental expenses from Bend's acquired business and higher temporary help, consulting, and travel expenses.
Consumer Banking
Consumer Banking serves consumer and business banking customers primarily throughout southern New England and the New York Metro and Suburban markets. Consumer Banking is comprised of the Consumer Lending and Small Business Banking (businesses that have less than $2 million of revenue) business units, as well as a distribution network consisting of 202 banking centers and 359 ATMs, a customer care center, and a full range of web and mobile-based banking services.

Pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue increased $59.5 million to $102.5 million in the quarter as compared to prior year. The increase in balances and income was largely attributable to the merger. Net interest income increased $86.0 million to $179.1 million, with $72.1 million driven by the merger, and $13.9 million driven by deposit and loan growth coupled with lower interest paid on deposits. Non-interest income increased $6.7 million to $30.8 million, with $6.4 million driven by the merger and $2.0 million from higher deposit and loan service fees, partially offset by $1.7 million in lower mortgage banking and investment services income. Non-interest expense increased $33.2 million to $107.3 million, primarily driven by the incremental expenses from the merger.
Consolidated financial performance:
Quarterly net interest income compared to the second quarter of 2021:
- Net interest income was $486.7 million compared to $220.9 million.
- Net interest margin was 3.28 percent compared to 2.82 percent. The yield on interest-earning assets increased by 51 basis points, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 5 basis points.

- Average deposits totaled $53.4 billion and grew by $24.7 billion, or 86.0 percent.

- The provision for credit losses reflects a $12.2 million expense in the quarter, contributing to a $2.1 million increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases. The provision for credit losses reflected an expense of $188.8 million in the prior quarter, which included $175.1 million associated with day one accounting provision required for loans and leases acquired during the quarter from the Sterling merger, compared to a benefit of $21.5 million a year ago.
- Net charge-offs (recoveries) were $9.6 million, compared to $8.9 million in the prior quarter and $(1.2) million a year ago.

Quarterly non-interest income compared to the second quarter of 2021:
- Total non-interest income was $120.9 million compared to $72.7 million, an increase of $48.2 million. The increase primarily reflects the impact of the merger with Sterling, along with higher deposit and loan related fees as a result of higher transactional activity.

- Total non-interest expense was $358.2 million compared to $187.0 million, an increase of $171.2 million.

Excluding those charges, total non-interest expense increased $122.9 million which primarily reflects the impact of the merger with Sterling.
Quarterly income taxes compared to the second quarter of 2021:
- Income tax expense was $54.8 million compared to $34.0 million, and the effective tax rate was 23.1 percent compared to 26.6 percent. The higher effective tax rate in the period a year ago reflects the effects of merger related expenses recognized during the period that were estimated to be largely nondeductible for tax purposes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of net income, ROATCE, and other performance ratios, in each case as adjusted, is included in the accompanying selected financial highlights table.
We believe that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance, our performance trends and financial position. We utilize these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. We believe that our presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Rare orchid found in Vermont for first time since 1902
The small whorled pogonia was believed to be extinct in Vermont since 1902
A rare orchid has been found for the first time in 120 years, according to officials.
The small whorled pogonia was found by botanists in Vermont last month, according to a Wednesday Facebook post from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS).
The last time a small whorled pogonia was seen in Vermont was in 1902, the department wrote on Facebook.
HOW GARDENERS CAN CONTROL PESTS, PROTECT POLLINATORS
In the post, the USFWS called the discovery of the orchid "breaking botanical news."
The rare orchid – which is listed as a threatened species – is named for its whorled arrangements of leaves just below the flower, USFWS said.

The discovery of the small whorled pogonia in Vermont was first shared by Vermont Fish and Wildlife in June.
In a press release, Vermont Fish and Wildlife said a population of the flowers was found in Winooski Valley Park District conservation land.

The small whorled pogonia is typically found in the eastern U.S. and in Ontario, the press release said.
Now that the rare orchid has been discovered, Vermont Fish and Wildlife will work with the Winooski Valley Park District to look for more of the flowers and monitor them to ensure they can flourish in Vermont, the release said.

The Company's first Cultivate Next venture fund cohort includes Hyphen and Meati Foods
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) today announced it is investing in Hyphen, a foodservice platform designed to help restaurant owners, operators, and budding chefs move their business forward by automating kitchen operations, and Meati Foods, a company focused on using proprietary, clean processes to provide nutritious, complete proteins made from mushroom root, as part of its first cohort for the Cultivate Next venture fund.
Cultivate Next is Chipotle's $50 million venture fund that intends to make early-stage investments into strategically aligned companies that further its mission to Cultivate a Better World and help accelerate Chipotle's aggressive growth plans. As a people-first company, Chipotle is seeking opportunities that will elevate the human experience for its teams as well as increase access and convenience for its guests. Investments may include innovations in farming and supply chain, advanced robotics like Hyphen, alternative proteins like Meati, and more.
Hyphen Builds a Link to the Future
Hyphen, based in San Jose, CA, believes that modern day kitchens need to move faster without sacrificing quality, accuracy, or hospitality. The company's first product, The Makeline, is an automated system that utilizes advanced robotics and a customized operating system to give busy kitchens a reliable and precise way to make and fulfill orders. The Makeline assembles all digital orders under the counter via automated production while allowing staff to assemble in-house orders from the top of the counter.
"Hyphen is reimagining the intersection between makelines and digital kitchens, with a focus on improving speed and order accuracy," said Curt Garner, Chief Technology Officer at Chipotle. "Their use of robotics to enhance the employee and guest experience to find efficiencies in the restaurant industry aligns with our mission of leveraging emerging technology to increase access to real food."
"Chipotle's investment in Hyphen will accelerate our hiring plans; allowing us to invest more heavily in R&D, all while providing the necessary infrastructure to scale sustainably," said Stephen Klein, Co-founder and CEO of Hyphen. "We're thrilled to work with Chipotle to find more innovative solutions by removing repetitive tasks from the employee experience so they can focus on creating delicious dishes and providing outstanding hospitality."
With its aggressive goal of growing to 7,000 restaurants in North America, Chipotle is committed to ongoing exploration for ways to ease pain points experienced by restaurant employees as demonstrated by its recent test of Chippy, an autonomous kitchen assistant that integrates culinary traditions with artificial intelligence to make tortilla chips.
Meati Foods: A New Nutritional Ecosystem
Meati Foods, based in Boulder, CO, serves nutrient-dense whole-food products made from mushroom root. The mushroom roots used in Meati products are grown indoors year-round in an ultra-clean, pure environment that is unexposed to pollutants, pesticides, antibiotics, or growth hormones. Meati's products are created in a way that protects and preserves our planet's water, land, and air.
"We are excited to support new ways to bring vegetables to the center of the plate though plant-based alternative protein options that mirror Chipotle's Food With Integrity standards," said Garner. "Meati is producing responsibly grown plant-based protein that tastes delicious."
"With their industry-leading commitments to sustainability and responsibly-raised ingredients, Chipotle is a likeminded leader in the movement to create sustainable food systems," said Tyler Huggins, Co-founder and CEO of Meati Foods. "Breaking ground on the Cultivate Next venture fund is an important signal of Meati's industry leadership potential, and new investments like this will help us scale operations and our mission-driven team."
Plant-powered options have been a priority for Chipotle's ongoing menu innovation over the past few years. Following a successful national launch of Cilantro-Lime Cauliflower Rice in January 2021, which resulted in an incremental sales lift while also attracting new guests, Chipotle announced it is testing Mexican Cauliflower Rice at 60 restaurants in Arizona, Southern California, and Wisconsin for a limited time.
What's Next?
Chipotle will continue to provide more updates on the Cultivate Next venture fund leading into 2023. Companies interested in collaborating with Chipotle through the Cultivate Next venture fund can apply by emailing cultivatenext@chipotle.com.

Column: Don’t underestimate Kamala Harris. She’s still the Democrat most likely to succeed Biden
As Democrats despair over President Biden’s unpopularity and cast about for an alternative, many overlook the obvious front-runner to succeed him as party leader:
Vice President Kamala Harris.
Biden, of course, has said he fully plans to seek reelection in 2024, with Harris as his running mate.
But that hasn’t stopped rampant speculation about the leadership and direction of a post-Biden Democratic Party, and how soon it takes shape.
Some Democrats have turned from musing to open mutiny, urging the septuagenarian president to stand aside for the perceived good of his party, as well as the country, and make way for someone younger and more vigorous.
Some of that may be ageism. (Though, at age 79, Biden has clearly lost a few steps.) Most of the chatter stems from panic among Democrats fearing a ghastly November and worried that worse could come if Biden tops the ticket again in 2024.
Hence, the breathlessness surrounding a notional Gavin Newsom run for president and the bruiting about of other possible Biden replacements: Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand and Elizabeth Warren, former New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, and on.
Trolling for attention is different than a longshot White House bid
Clearly, the thinking goes, if Biden were to withdraw, the 2024 nomination would not be Harris’ for the asking, never mind her role as the president’s understudy. She is no heir apparent.
Which, despite Harris’ own slew of problems, shouldn’t necessarily be taken as a personal reflection on the vice president.
“Of course it’s not going to be given to her,” said Cornell Belcher, a Democratic pollster who made clear his belief that Biden should and would seek election to a second term. “It never is.”
Harris’ 2020 presidential bid ended in a heap of smoke and ash, and she’s been working to politically rehabilitate herself ever since.
The results have been decidedly mixed.
She acquitted herself well as Biden’s running mate, doing her duty attacking President Trump and holding her own in the debate with Vice President Mike Pence. Her time in office, though, has been much rockier.
Some of that has nothing to do with Harris and everything to do with the vice presidency. The job is inherently subservient, which tends to diminish those in the post — even a history-making figure like Harris. If anything, her role as the first female and first woman of color to hold the position has increased the gap between reality and expectation.
But many of Harris’ difficulties have been her own doing, including stumbling TV interviews, persistent staff turnover and a penchant for verbal calamity when speaking off-script. (Clips labeled “Kamala Harris word salad” have been viewed nearly 27 million times on TikTok.)
The result is a dismal approval rating that nearly matches Biden’s poor standing and an eagerness among some Democrats to write off both Harris and the president and start fresh in 2024.
That thinking, however, diminishes her political prospects and ignores advantages Harris enjoys over other possible contenders.
The office of vice president might shrink its occupants in the public eye. But behind the scenes it offers a formidable platform to build a national campaign. (In recent decades, Biden, Al Gore, George H.W. Bush and Walter Mondale held the office before winning their party’s nomination.)
Harris, who publicly shuns overt political activity, has nevertheless made moves that could serve her well, speaking at a major Democratic Party dinner in early-voting South Carolina and, as the administration point person on abortion rights, meeting state lawmakers and Democrats across the country.
Last weekend she was in Pennsylvania, appearing on behalf of gubernatorial hopeful Josh Shapiro and rallying activists in a major battleground state.
It also helps a great deal that Harris is a pioneering Black woman in a party whose most loyal constituents are Black voters. Their support for Harris remains strong.
In a Fox News poll released last month, the vice president’s overall approval rating was 41%. Among Black respondents, it was 73%.
In a recent nationwide survey of Black women, Belcher put the question differently, asking how warmly they felt toward Harris. She rated a quite favorable 71 on a scale of 100.
“Until Gavin and Pete and Kirsten and Liz show they can win Black voters, Kamala Harris is the front-runner,” said Bakari Sellers, a former South Carolina lawmaker who co-chaired Harris’ presidential campaign and remains a friend and confidant. “That’s just pure objective analysis.”
South Carolina has been crucial in deciding the Democratic nomination ever since it moved its primary forward in 2008.
The state’s most powerful Democrat, Rep. James E. Clyburn, was vital to Biden’s success in 2020, rescuing his flailing campaign with a timely endorsement, and he’s made his 2024 preference known.
“Right now, I’m for Biden, and second I’m for Harris,” he told the Wall Street Journal.
“So I don’t care who goes to New Hampshire or Iowa,” Clyburn said of two other traditionally early-voting states. “I’m for Biden and then I’m for Harris — either together or in that order.”
Harris is just the latest vice president to learn the job is ripe for ridicule.
All the political handicapping will be moot if Biden runs again.
If he doesn’t, and Harris bids to succeed him, she’ll have to run a better and smarter campaign than the last one, which sunk in a mire of mixed messaging and internal squabbles. Her ability to do so is by no means certain.
But any Democrat who thinks the vice president is a nonfactor or would be an easy pushover in a fight for the nomination risks failing as badly as Harris did in 2020.
Today’s head-to-head polls are meaningless. In the fight to succeed Biden, his vice president remains the one to beat.

Support from investors including Revolution Growth and Chipotle's Cultivate Next fund will support rapid retail expansion, development of product and Giga Ranch production facility
BOULDER, Colo., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Meati Foods, the creator of Eat Meati™ juicy, delicious alternative whole-food proteins made from mushroom root, today announced it has raised $150 million in a Series C investment round that will help to expand the production and accessibility of the company's popular products as they aim to become the U.S. market share leader in plant-based meat by 2025. The company's products deliver taste and texture superior to current meat alternatives while offering comparable complete protein to meat with more fiber and no cholesterol.
The round was led by Revolution Growth, with participation from existing and new investors, including Grosvenor Food & AgTech, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments), Wellington Management, and Cultivate Next, Chipotle Mexican Grill's new venture fund which includes Meati Foods in its first cohort of investments.
"The continued growth and momentum that Meati is experiencing underscores how differentiated and scalable our products and vision are," said Meati Foods CEO and co-founder, Tyler Huggins. "Revolution Growth and our new and existing investors bring not just the financial firepower and ethos alignment, but deep and diversified expertise that will be instrumental in building a brand and organization that will truly change how people eat in a way that's better for our bodies and better for our planet."
Meati™ has distanced itself from an ever-crowded category through its standard-setting composition of at least 95 percent mushroom root, earning its whole-food distinction and unmatched nutrition. The delicious, whole-cut meats naturally deliver as much as 17 grams of complete protein (33 percent of the daily recommended value according to the FDA) and 12 grams of dietary fiber (42 percent of the daily recommended value), along with micronutrients such as 45 percent and 90 percent of the recommended daily intakes of zinc and vitamin B12 (riboflavin).
The funds will support the completion of the company's more than 100,000-square-foot Mega Ranch in Thornton, Colo., a facility that will begin to ship product in late 2022, ultimately producing tens of millions of pounds of product annually. Additionally, the company will continue its rapid growth, including a national omni-channel footprint by the end of 2023, diversification of its product portfolio, as well as breaking ground on the company's first "Giga Ranch", designed to be the production facility that will be replicated domestically and globally, with a single ranch capable of producing hundreds of millions of pounds annually.
"Meati Foods' innovative products mirror Chipotle's Food with Integrity standards and bring an exciting, new alternative protein to market," said Curt Garner, Chief Technology Officer at Chipotle. "Through Chipotle's Cultivate Next venture fund we are investing in companies that align with our mission to Cultivate a Better World and Meati is doing just that with their clean processes and plant-based proteins."
Meati has won the hearts and minds of food industry icons and world-renowned chefs including: David Chang (chef and founder of Momofuku and Majordomo Media); Walter Robb (former Whole Foods Market CEO); Rose Marcario (former Patagonia CEO); John Foraker (Once Upon a Farm CEO and former Annie's Organic CEO); Nicolas Jammet and Jonathan Neman (co-founders of Sweetgreen); Sam Kass (former White House senior policy advisor for nutrition and partner at Acre Venture Partners); David Barber (co-owner of Blue Hill Restaurants and founder of Almanac Investments); and the Alinea Group (including one of the most awarded and recognized chefs in the world, Grant Achatz).
"Meati is poised to be the leader in this large and growing category with a capability to produce plant-based meats in whole-cut form with a clean ingredient list. The company is meeting an unmet demand for products that are delicious, healthy, and good for the planet. We're thrilled to partner with Tyler and the full team as the company expands its production and tackles real-world issues of food security and sustainability," said Fazeela Abdul Rashid, a Partner at Revolution Growth who is joining the board of the company.
Meati is available online and at several restaurants throughout Colorado and Arizona. Learn more at www.meati.com.

Provides $7 million to scale up production capacity for pioneering sodium-ion battery
developer to tap emerging oilfield carbon reduction market
HAMILTON, Bermuda and SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Nabors Industries Ltd. ("Nabors") (NYSE: NBR), a leading provider of advanced technology for the global energy industry, today announced that it has invested $7 million in Natron Energy, Inc. ("Natron"), a global leader in the manufacturing of sodium-ion batteries.
Natron plans to use the funds to accelerate the production of its sodium-based battery technology at its Michigan facilities, concentrating on industrial power and energy transition markets. Natron and Nabors are evaluating the introduction of sodium-ion batteries as an energy storage solution for drilling markets.
Natron's batteries, which store sodium ions in electrode materials based on Prussian blue materials, offer higher power density, longer service life, and unique safety characteristics over other battery technologies. Natron leverages existing lithium-ion manufacturing facilities for production, and its supply chain requires zero lithium, cobalt, copper, nickel, or other difficult-to-obtain minerals.
Management Comments
Anthony G. Petrello, Nabors Chairman, CEO and President, said: "As businesses accelerate the electrification of operations, the need for reliable, affordable, and environmentally responsible energy storage solutions is greater than ever before. Natron can provide a safe, cost-effective battery solution for various industrial applications. Together, Natron and Nabors will target drilling operations where Nabors has already started to combine energy storage solutions with traditional fuel-powered generators to lower emissions and fuel consumption. Following our investment in geothermal energy, emissions monitoring, and ultracapacitors, we now welcome Natron to our energy transition venture portfolio. We are excited to add to our clean energy initiatives while leveraging our existing competencies and global scale to help accelerate the commercialization of this exciting technology within the oil and gas industry."
Colin Wessells, Ph.D., Natron Co-Founder and CEO, added: "We are excited to team up with Nabors. Their investment dramatically accelerates Natron's entry into oil and gas markets. Having the global power of Nabors backing us is a game-changer that expands access to the carbon reduction initiatives in the oilfield. With this support from Nabors, Natron is accelerating the rate at which it brings its Michigan factory online for the world's first mass production of sodium-ion batteries."
About Nabors Industries
Nabors Industries is a leading provider of advanced technology for the energy industry. With operations in more than 15 countries, Nabors has established a global network of people, technology and equipment to deploy solutions that deliver safe, efficient and responsible energy production. By leveraging its core competencies, particularly in drilling, engineering, automation, data science, and manufacturing, Nabors aims to innovate the future of energy and enable the transition to a lower carbon world.

Topline
Federal officials said they have found what appears to be a Fabergé egg on a seized superyacht, according to CNN, one of the more unusual and unexpected artifacts found as governments around the world continue to crack down on Russian oligarchs and those complicit with the invasion of Ukraine.
Key Facts
Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco said U.S. law enforcement found the egg on a seized superyacht docked in San Diego, according to CNN.
Monaco said the egg is one of the more “interesting” discoveries her team has made in their investigations.
If genuine, Monaco said the egg would be one of last known in the world and worth millions.
Monaco did not state which yacht the egg was found on but did say the vessel had been taken from an oligarch in Fiji last month and sailed to the U.S.
Fiji handed the U.S. a $300 million superyacht, the Amadea, in June after a protracted legal battle over who owned it.
The U.S. claims the yacht is owned by Russian oligarch Suleiman Kerimov, who has been targeted by international sanctions over suspected ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin
What To Watch For
Redistributing resources to Ukraine. Monaco said the Justice Department has asked Congress for the authority to give Ukraine proceeds from seized goods, according to CNN. Officials in the EU and U.K. are mulling similar policies, particularly as the war drags on into its sixth month and costs mount.
Key Background
The U.S. and other governments around the world have seized billions of dollars’ worth of assets from those sanctioned over Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine. The murky ownership of assets, particularly large ones like yachts and jets, can help the super rich stall proceedings or evade sanctions entirely, something initially exploited with the Amadea (the yacht’s lawyer claimed it is owned by a different oligarch, Eduard Khudainatov, who has not been sanctioned). Finding a Fabergé egg, if authenticated, is both a symbolic and monetary coup. The decorative eggs were made specifically for the Russian Imperial family by famed jeweler Peter Carl Fabergé. Only a few dozen were created and not all survived and the rare items can sell for millions when they do come to market.
Tangent
This is not the first time a Fabergé egg has been caught up in Russian sanctions. London’s V&A museum had borrowed Fabergé eggs and other items from Russian institutions for an exhibition on the jeweler and faced breaching international sanctions if it returned the objects. Government ministers were working on whether they could be returned without compromising sanctions.
Forbes Valuation
$12.9 billion. That’s the estimated net worth of Kerimov and his family, according to Forbes’ real-time tracker. A large portion of Kerimov’s wealth comes from his 76% stake in Polyus, Russia’s biggest gold producer.

LONDON (AP) — Fans of Liz Truss think she is the new Iron Lady.
Britain’s foreign secretary is one of the two final contenders to replace Boris Johnson as Conservative Party leader and prime minister. Some 180,000 party members will be asked to choose either Truss or former Treasury chief Rishi Sunak, with the winner set to be announced Sept. 5.
If Truss wins, she would become Britain’s third female prime minister. She has forged her image in homage to the first, Margaret Thatcher.
Truss has posed in a British Army tank in Eastern Europe, evoking an image of Thatcher during the Cold War. In a televised leadership debate this week, Britain’s top diplomat sported a pussy-bow blouse eerily similar to one the late prime minister used to wear.
Truss, 46, is a favorite among many Conservatives, who revere Thatcher above all other leaders. Critics say it’s an empty homage and believe Truss lacks the gravitas to lead the country amid economic turbulence and a European war.
As foreign secretary, Truss has been front and center in Britain’s support for Ukraine and Western sanctions against Russia over the invasion of its neighbor. She also has figured prominently in the U.K.’s feud with the European Union over post-Brexit trade arrangements.
Her pugnacious approach — along with her promises to slash taxes and boost defense spending — have made her the favorite of the party’s strongly euroskeptic right wing.
Writing in the Daily Telegraph, Truss said she was “the only person who can deliver the change we need on the economy — in line with true Conservative principles — and the only person capable of stepping up and leading the response to Ukraine and the increased security threat that the free world faces.”
But opponents criticize her as a dogmatist and a wooden public speaker, and note that she has not always been a true-blue Tory.
Born in Oxford in 1975, Truss is the daughter of a math professor and a nurse who took her on anti-nuclear and anti-Thatcher protests as a child, where she recalled shouting: “Maggie, Maggie, Maggie — out, out out!”
Truss attended a public high school in Leeds, northern England, and then studied philosophy, politics and economics at Oxford University, where she briefly belonged to the centrist Liberal Democrats and called for the abolition of the monarchy.
She worked as an economist for energy giant Shell and telecommunications firm Cable and Wireless, and for a right-of-center think tank while becoming involved in Conservative politics and espousing free-market Thatcherite views. She ran unsuccessfully for Parliament twice before being elected to represent the eastern England seat of Southwest Norfolk in 2010.
Truss is married to Hugh O’Leary, with whom she has two teenage daughters.
In Britain’s 2016 referendum on whether to leave the European Union, Truss backed the losing “remain” side. But she has served in Johnson’s staunchly pro-Brexit government as trade secretary and then foreign secretary, and has won the support of the Conservative Party’s most fervent Brexiteers.
Her record as foreign secretary has drawn mixed reviews. Many praise her firm response to the invasion of Ukraine, and she secured the release of two British nationals jailed in Iran where her predecessors had failed. But EU leaders and officials hoping she would bring a softer tone to the U.K.’s relations with the bloc have been disappointed.
Tim Bale, professor of politics at Queen Mary University of London, says the fact that euroskeptics adore Truss, while suspecting Sunak of pro-EU views — despite that fact that he backed “leave” in the referendum — shows the importance of image over substance in politics.
“His image doesn’t fit that of a Brexiteer whereas hers does,” Bale said. “There’s a kind of presumption that if you’re a bit of a smoothiechops who moves easily in international circles you must be a remainer, and if you’re someone who tells it like it is to Johnny Foreigner then you’re obviously a (true) Brexiteer.”

Dolcas Biotech unveils new beadlet liquid encapsulation for -its TruOliv™ organic olive leaf and fruit extract
LANDING, N.J., July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Dolcas Biotech, LLC.'s desert-grown TruOliv™ organic olive leaf and fruit extract has been newly minted with Zero-Carbon certification. The new seal endorses the company's commitment to environmental welfare as Dolcas unveils the new liquid beadlet encapsulation formulation for its prized olive extract.
The new label asserts compliance with PAS-2060—the only internationally recognized certification for organizational carbon neutrality. Formulated in a carbon-neutral facility in Morocco, TruOliv's raw material is sourced from the Moroccan desert's olive groves, located in the pristine foothills of the Atlas Mountains. This part of the Saharan region produces some of the world's most highly valued and immaculately cultivated olive oil olives, as well as fruit-and-leaf, full-spectrum olive extracts.
Sun scorched and potent
The intensely hot, rocky arid environment in which the olive trees grow naturally enriches their fruits, leaves, and stems with a unique profile of polyphenols. This eliminates the need to use solvent systems or apply heat traditionally used in potentiating the highly venerated olive fruit and leaf derived antioxidants, specifically hydroxytyrosol and oleuropin. The extreme climate conditions naturally optimize water utilization within the trees' root systems, inducing the polyphenol-producing enzymes into activation.
"Protecting the environment is not just about reducing the impact of emissions," asserts Dr. Shavon Jackson-Michel, Director of Medical & Scientific Affairs for Dolcas Biotech. "It also involves restoring the land and empowering rural communities—especially in low socioeconomic zones—to instill a sense of pride and self-sufficiency."
Some of the regenerative systems employed in the production of TruOliv include recently installed drip-irrigation systems that avert unnecessary loss of water. There also is the continuous planting of extensive olive groves to resist further desertification in Morocco. The company further operates a circular economy system, whereby the olive extract side stream (pits and branches) is upcycled into smoke-free charcoal briquettes to be used for barbequing, dental preparations, and other horticultural practices.
TruOliv gets a makeover
Already bearing USDA and EU Organic certifications, TruOliv has recently undergone a makeover with the debut of its beadlet liquid-encapsulated product. With this new format, the microencapsulated actives float through an oil-filled capsule, simulating the appearance of a lava lamp. Apart from its aesthetic appeal, the beadlets formatting effectively minimizes capsule loads for more compact delivery of powdered extracts, making this attractive supplement easy to swallow and with enhanced bioavailability. The beadlets are wrapped in a sustained release coating for slow timed release of the actives.
Hydroxytyrosol, found exclusively in olives and red wine, is a potent antioxidant valued for its diverse activity. This primary olive active has been referenced by EFSA for its role in reducing LDL-oxidation, supporting lipid metabolism, and protecting cells from oxidative damage.
One 250 mg TruOliv capsule can accommodate 5mg of hydroxytyrosol, the minimum daily dose recommended by EFSA for supporting optimal cardiovascular function and blood cholesterol. The beadlets are suspended in a potent culinary olive oil, sourced from the same Moroccan desert groves, and harnessing a potent dose of polyphenols delivered in the monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) matrix native to olives.
"The Mediterranean diet, long considered a gold standard for supporting heart health, centers on the consumption of olive oil," notes Jackson-Michel. "With more than 100 years of collective olive cultivation expertise, spanning four generations of olive growers, TruOliv is unmatched in its delivery of a full-spectrum, clinically studied, naturally enriched, and regeneratively farmed polyphenol extract."
The TruOliv beadlet format will be offered alongside the existing encapsulated powdered formula and will be available both in the oil carrier or without. The raw material and capsule varieties will be commercialized in bulk, as well as on a turnkey private label basis.

TEL AVIV, Israel, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Circles is launching a new service offering free, anonymous, voice-only support rooms. The newest feature within the Circles support platform now invites people to connect around the common issues they face in their lives – anonymously, and for free. People going through similar life challenges or events drop into voice-only support rooms around those specific topics in a safe space, to give and get support whenever they need it, guided by a peer with that same lived experience.
The new free feature, named Voices, has been operating in beta phase for the last few weeks on the Circles support app, already hosting weekly voice-only support rooms, with the majority of users revisiting the platform on a weekly basis. A portion of Circles' recent $16.5M Series A funding is dedicated to expanding this new feature on the Circles platform.
Circles is the leading platform for anyone dealing with a life challenge to find group support, available on the App Store and Google Play, where up to 10 people experiencing similar life challenges are matched into groups and meet weekly via video chat to give and receive emotional support, guided by trained, vetted mental health professionals. Until now, Circles offering was subscription-based, supporting thousands of paying members across the country with hundreds of groups. Following Circles' success, it is launching Voices, the platform's newest, cost-free offering which lowers the barrier even further to anyone who could use support but finds that 1:1 therapy isn't a feasible or effective solution.
Voices' partners were handpicked to guide the first VoiceRooms, focusing on individuals who were already sharing their story to help others.
"People feel better after talking to someone going through similar experiences. I saw this when my mother was sick with cancer, and I felt this myself after she passed. We've proved this with the Circles platform, and now, we want to make it available to everyone," says Irad Eichler, Co-Founder and CEO of Circles. "Today, we're launching our new Voices feature with 100 initial partners across over 30 topics, so that anyone who feels alone and like no one understands them, can jump on and find someone who does, all day, everyday."

Police take naked, dancing man with gun on Mich. highway into protective custody
Charles E. Ramirez
The Detroit News
A northern Michigan man who was dancing naked with a gun in his hand on a highway Tuesday is in protective custody, Michigan State Police said.
Police received multiple 911 calls about the naked man who was dancing, doing pushups and had a 9mm handgun with him on southbound US-131 near mile marker 187 in Wexford County, they said.
Witnesses told dispatchers the man eventually emptied the ammunition from the gun.
A state police sergeant and a county sheriff's deputy took the man into custody, officials said. He was taken to a hospital for a mental health evaluation.
An investigation revealed the man has a valid license to carry a gun. | https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/michigan/2022/07/21/police-take-naked-dancing-man-gun-mich-highway-into-protective-custody/10115071002/ | 2022-07-21T13:02:47Z | https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/michigan/2022/07/21/police-take-naked-dancing-man-gun-mich-highway-into-protective-custody/10115071002/ | false |

BERLIN (AP) — Europe faced an energy crisis even before drama emerged about the Nord Stream 1 pipeline reopening from Russia to Germany.
While natural gas started flowing again Thursday after the major pipeline shut down for 10 days of maintenance, Europe will still struggle to keep homes warm and industry humming this winter.
That is because Russia has already slashed Europe’s amounts of natural gas used to power factories, generate electricity and heat homes in the winter, and Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned they could keep dwindling.
Deliveries through Nord Stream 1 were cut by 60% before annual repairs began and were expected to stay well below the pipeline’s full capacity. Government officials had feared the pipeline may not reopen at all, saying Putin is using energy for political leverage in his confrontation with the European Union over the war in Ukraine.
Here are key things to know about Europe’s energy crisis:
DID RUSSIA CUT OFF GAS TO EUROPE?
It has reduced supplies significantly. Even before the invasion of Ukraine, Russia was not selling gas on the short-term spot market. After the EU imposed sanctions on Russia’s banks and companies and started sending weapons to Ukraine, Russian cut off gas to six countries and reduced supplies to six more.
Flows into Germany, the EU’s biggest economy, through Nord Stream 1 were dialed back by two-thirds, with Russia blaming a part that was sent to Canada for maintenance and not returned due to sanctions. European leaders rejected that claim, calling it a political move to create uncertainty and spike energy prices.
It has left the 27-member EU scrambling to fill gas storage ahead of winter, when demand rises and utility companies draw down their reserves to keep homes warm and power plants running.
The EU’s goal is to use less gas now to build storage for winter. Europe’s gas reserves are only 65% full, compared with a goal of 80% by Nov. 1.
WHY IS RUSSIAN NATURAL GAS SO IMPORTANT?
Russia supplied some 40% of Europe’s natural gas before the war. That has dropped to around 15%, sending prices through the roof and straining energy-intensive industries.
Gas is used across a range of processes that most people never see — to forge steel to make cars, make glass bottles and pasteurize milk and cheese.
Companies warn that they often can’t switch overnight to other energy sources such as fuel oil or electricity to produce heat. In some cases, equipment that holds molten metal or glass is ruined if the heat is turned off.
High energy prices are already threatening to cause a recession in Europe through record inflation, with consumers having less to spend as costs rise for food, fuel and utilities. A complete cutoff could deal an even heavier blow to an already troubled economy.
WHAT IS THE NORD STREAM 1 PIPELINE?
It is the major European natural gas pipeline that runs under the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany and is Germany’s main source of Russian gas.
The head of Germany’s network regulator, Klaus Mueller, tweeted that gas deliveries could reach the pre-maintenance level of some 40% on Thursday.
Even with Nord Stream 1 resuming at reduced levels, Europe would need to save 12 billion cubic meters of gas, the equivalent of 120 LNG tankers, to fill its storage levels by winter.
Three other pipelines bring Russian gas to Europe, but one through Poland and Belarus has been shut down. Another, through Ukraine and Slovakia, is still bringing reduced amounts of gas despite the fighting, as is one through Turkey into Bulgaria.
Gas also comes by pipeline from Norway, North Africa and Azerbaijan.
WHAT’S PUTIN’S GAME?
Although Russia’s oil and gas exporters are selling less energy, spiking prices mean Putin’s earnings have actually increased, according to the International Energy Agency.
Since the invasion, Russia’s revenue from exporting oil and gas to Europe has doubled over the average from recent years, to $95 billion, the Paris-based IEA said.
The increase in Russia’s energy revenue in just the last five months is three times what it typically makes by exporting gas to Europe over an entire winter.
So Putin has cash in hand and could calculate that painful utility bills and an energy recession could undermine public support for Ukraine in Europe and increase sentiment for a negotiated settlement in his favor.
“Based on what we have seen over the past year, it would be unwise to exclude the possibility that Russia could decide to forgo the revenue it gets from exporting gas to Europe in order to gain political leverage,” IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol said.
Indeed, Putin said Tuesday that the flow of gas through Nord Stream 1 would decline even further if the turbine that was sent to Canada for repairs wasn’t returned by late July, when another turbine would shut down for maintenance. Canada has said it gave permission to return the part that powers a compression station.
“Our partners are trying to shift the blame for the mistakes they made to Russia and Gazprom, but it’s absolutely unfounded,” Putin said.
WHAT CAN EUROPE DO?
The EU has turned to more-expensive liquefied natural gas, or LNG, which comes by ship from places like the U.S. and Qatar. Germany is fast-tracking construction of LNG import terminals on its North Sea coast, but that will take years. The first of four floating reception terminals is to come online later this year.
But LNG alone can’t make up the gap. The world’s LNG export facilities are running at full capacity amid tight energy markets, and there’s no more gas to be had. An explosion at a U.S. terminal in Freeport, Texas, that sent most of its gas to Europe took 2.5% of Europe’s supply offline overnight.
Conservation and other energy sources are key. For example, Germany is running coal plants longer, creating a gas auction system intended to encourage conservation, and resetting thermostats in public buildings.
The European Union on Wednesday proposed that member states voluntarily cut their gas use by 15% over the coming months. The European Commission, the EU’s executive arm, is seeking the power to impose mandatory reductions across the bloc if there’s a risk of a severe gas shortage or an exceptionally high demand.
EU member states will discuss the measures at an emergency meeting of energy ministers next Tuesday.
Countries have been scrambling to secure alternative energy supplies, with leaders of Italy, France and the European Union sealing deals with their counterparts in Algeria, Azerbaijan and the United Arab Emirates this week.
COULD PEOPLE FREEZE THIS WINTER?
It’s unlikely homes, schools and hospitals will lose heat because governments are required to impose rationing first on businesses. The German government also could allow gas suppliers to immediately pass on increases to customers.
The choices could include torpedoing industry and/or socking consumers with even higher bills.
The IEA recommends European countries step up campaigns people to conserve at home and plan to share gas in an emergency. And time is getting short.
“European leaders need to be preparing for this possibility now to avoid the potential damage that would result from a disjointed and destabilizing response,” Birol said. “This winter could become a historic test of European solidarity — one it cannot afford to fail — with implications far beyond the energy sector.” | https://wgntv.com/news/international/ap-international/explainer-can-europe-live-without-russian-natural-gas/ | 2022-07-21T13:03:52Z | https://wgntv.com/news/international/ap-international/explainer-can-europe-live-without-russian-natural-gas/ | true |
JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military on Wednesday confirmed one of its worst-kept secrets, publicly acknowledging for the first time that it uses unmanned aerial vehicles to carry out attacks.
Israel is a world leader in UAV technology. But until Wednesday, the military censor barred official confirmation of the use of attack drones.
In a statement, the censor’s office said that after a lengthy review, it had concluded that acknowledging the use of the weapons was not a security risk.
“There is no prohibition on publishing the use of attack drones as part of the Israeli military’s operational activity,” it said.
Israel has used drones to attack targets in Gaza for well over a decade, with human rights groups and international media reporting on the practice. Experts say the weapons can be identified based on the explosions, which are much smaller than airstrikes carried out by warplanes, and the buzzing sound of the unmanned aircraft flying overhead. | https://wgntv.com/news/international/ap-international/israel-acknowledges-use-of-attack-drones-for-1st-time/ | 2022-07-21T13:04:06Z | https://wgntv.com/news/international/ap-international/israel-acknowledges-use-of-attack-drones-for-1st-time/ | true |

River Wye: Dead fish found in Herefordshire due to hot weather
- Published
A number of fish have been found dead in a body of water in Herefordshire due to warm weather, the Environment Agency has said.
The remains of salmon and a barbel were discovered floating in the River Wye.
As a heatwave gripped the UK this week, dissolved oxygen levels in the water has had a negative impact on wildlife.
The agency said it would continue to monitor the situation over the coming days but expects further reports of dead fish.
Hot and sunny weather triggers algal blooms, which can reduce dissolved oxygen levels in water leading to fish becoming distressed and, in some cases, dying, the government body warned.
Julian Lane from the Ross-on-Wye Angling Association, said the river was witnessing its "lowest levels in a generation".
"I've been fishing here for 40 years and I've never seen it this low," the 49-year-old committee member said.
The organisation had suspended fishing on the river in amid concerns over the hot weather.
The water temperature currently is at about 24C (75F) and oxygen levels were returning, Mr Lane said.
"But we're being predicted another heatwave later in the month with no significant rain on the horizon."
Extra water was pumped into the river from the Elan Dam at the weekend, raising the river levels by about 10cm, he said.
"We don't know yet, but it looks as if it could have stopped a major fish kill," Mr Lane said.
"As someone who has spent much of my life on the river, it's extremely difficult to watch."
On Tuesday, the UK has recorded temperatures of over 40C (104F) for the first time.
In Shropshire, almost 100 brown trout and Atlantic salmon had to be rescued from the "dried-up" River Redlake in Bucknell and relocated further downstream.

NEW YORK (AP) — Ivana Trump, the 1980s style icon and businesswoman who helped Donald Trump build the empire that put him on a road toward the White House, lived a “beautiful life,” the former president recalled as loved ones paid final respects to her Wednesday.
The ex-president joined all his children, an array of other relatives and friends at a Manhattan church for Ivana Trump’s funeral Mass.
“A very sad day, but at the same time a celebration of a wonderful and beautiful life,” he wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social, before he, former first lady Melania Trump and their son Barron headed to St. Vincent Ferrer Roman Catholic Church, located just a few blocks from Ivana Trump’s home near Central Park.
Ivana and Donald Trump’s three children — Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric — stood with their father and their families as the gold-toned casket was carried from the church. Eric Trump briefly put an arm around his sister’s shoulders as she held the hand of one of her small children, who clutched a red flower.
Tiffany Trump, the daughter of the former president and his second wife, Marla Maples, also attended the service, as did family friends including Jeanine Pirro, co-host of Fox News’ “The Five,” and Charles Kushner, a real estate developer and the father of Ivanka Trump’s husband, Jared Kushner. Fashion designer Dennis Basso, a longtime friend of Ivana Trump’s, was also among the mourners.
The Mass was “an elegant, wonderful send-off for Ivana Trump,” another longtime friend, R. Couri Hay, said as he emerged.
Trump’s family announced Thursday that the 73-year-old had died at her home. Authorities said the death was an accident, with blunt impact injuries to her torso as the cause.
Ivana and Donald Trump met in the 1970s and were married from 1977 to 1992. In the 1980s, they were a power couple, and she became well known in her own right, instantly recognizable with her blond hair in an updo and her glamorous look.
Ivana Trump also took part in her husband’s businesses, managing one of his Atlantic City casinos and picking out some of the design elements in New York City’s Trump Tower.
Their very public divorce was ugly, but in recent years, they were friendly. Ivana Trump was an enthusiastic supporter of Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and said they spoke on a regular basis.

Welsh teachers to get below inflation pay rise
- Published
Teachers in Wales will get a below-inflation pay rise this year, the Welsh government has announced.
Salaries will rise by 5% rise in the first year and could go up by 3.5% in the second.
Teaching unions reacted with alarm to the news, and two are expected to ballot members for industrial action.
Education Minister Jeremy Miles said he was committed to finding ways to reward teachers.
Inflation currently stands at 9.4% in the UK, and is predicted to reach 11%.
Accepting the recommendations of an independent pay review body "in principle," Mr Miles agreed that salaries should rise by 5% from September 2022.
That will put starting salaries for new teachers of £28,866. The salaries of more experienced classroom teachers will rise to £44,450.
But the body's call for a by 3.5% in September 2023 would be used as a "planning assumption" - although it will be subject to review.
Mr Miles said the pay body's recommendation that, given "current economic uncertainties and pressures", future pay awards next year need to be kept under review is "sensible".
It had also recommended that from September 2023 starting salaries are increased to at least £30,000.
Mr Miles said he was "committed to finding ways we can continue to reward and recognise our teachers here in Wales through this difficult economic period".
Similar pay increases of between 5% - 8.9% for teachers in their first year have been promised in England by the UK government.
Teaching union NEU Cymru will hold a preliminary ballot for industrial action in the autumn, "given this very poor pay proposal".
David Evans, the union's Wales secretary, accused the proposal of being a reaction to what is happening in England: "We simply cannot allow these attacks on our members pay and their standards of living to continue."
He said if there is "no movement come September, we will have no hesitation in recommending that our members take action".
'Scandalous'
One union - NASUWT - has already said it will ballot for industrial action if teachers do not receive a 12% pay award.
NASUWT accused the Welsh government of waiting until schools close for the summer to "deliver another real-terms pay cut for teachers".
"It is scandalous that many experienced teachers and school leaders are already leaving the profession and today's announcement will do little to stop that," the union's general secretary Patrick Roach said.
Meanwhile headteachers group the NAHT said it would consult with its members to decide what to do next.
It's understood not to be ruling out future industrial action, something the 125-year old organisation has never done in Wales.
Laura Doel, NAHT Cymru director, said 5% was a "pay cut" that does "nothing to address the decade of cuts to salaries".
The Welsh government's decision on what it will pay NHS staff this year is also expected soon.
Peter Fox, Welsh Conservative Shadow Finance Minister, said it was a "fair settlement".
He said: "While the desire to award our public servants a greater reward while the cost-of-living is on the increase, we must also be acutely aware of potential inflationary effects of doing so." | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-62253090 | 2022-07-21T13:05:46Z | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-62253090 | true |

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. and allies committed more rocket systems, ammunition and other military aid to Ukraine Wednesday, as American defense leaders said they see the war to block Russian gains in the eastern Donbas region grinding on for some time.
Speaking at the close of a virtual meeting with about 50 defense leaders from around the world, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said it will be “hard work” to keep allies and partners all committed to the war effort as the months drag on.
“We’re pushing hard to maintain and intensify the momentum of donations,” Austin said. “This will be an area of focus for the foreseeable future, as it should be, in terms of how long our allies and partners will remain committed … There’s no question that this will always be hard work making sure that we maintain unity.”
Officials have been reluctant to say how long the war may last, but Army Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, suggested it could be a long slog.
“We have a very serious grinding war of attrition going on in the Donbas. And unless there’s a breakthrough on either side — which right now the analysts don’t think is particularly likely in the near term — it will probably continue as a grinding war of attrition for a period of time until both sides see an alternative way out of this, perhaps through negotiation or something like that.”
Officials said Wednesday that the U.S. will send Ukraine four more High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) and precision-guided rockets for them, as well as additional artillery rounds. A more detailed announcement is expected later this week.
The aid comes as Russian forces try to solidify gains in the two provinces in Ukraine’s eastern Donbas region, Donetsk and Luhansk, while also expanding attacks into other areas. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told state-controlled RT television and the RIA Novosti news agency that Russia has expanded its “special military operation” from the Donbas to the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions and other captured territories.
Austin said Lavrov’s comments come as no surprise to allies who have known Russia has greater ambitions in capturing Ukraine.
But Ukrainian troops have been using the HIMARS to strike Russian logistics nodes and command and control centers, including behind the front lines to disrupt supply chains. And on Wednesday they struck and damaged a bridge that is key to supplying Russian troops in southern Ukraine, where Lavrov said Moscow is trying to consolidate its territorial gains.
Milley said the Ukrainian strikes are “steadily degrading the Russian ability to supply their troops, command and control their forces, and carry out their illegal war of aggression.”
He said that, due to Ukraine’s resistance, Russia has been able to gain just six to 10 miles of ground in the Donbas over the past 90 days, with “tens of thousands of artillery rounds” fired in each 24-hour period. And he said he does not believe that the Donbas region has been lost to Russia.
“It’s not lost yet. The Ukrainians are making the Russians pay for every inch of territory that they gain and advances are measured in literally hundreds of meters,” Milley said.
The issue going forward, he said, will be the amount of HIMARS rockets and other ammunition expended by the Ukraine forces. The U.S. has been sending thousands of rounds, taking them from American military stockpiles, and raising questions about how long that will last and at what point there may be a risk to U.S. military readiness.
“We are looking at all of that very, very carefully,” Milley said. “We think we’re okay right now as we project forward into the next month or two or three, we think we’re going to be okay.”
The U.S. has already provided more than $7 billion in aid to Ukraine since the war began in late February. Austin said that during the defense meeting, there was also discussion about how to ensure that Ukraine is able to maintain and repair the weapons systems into the future.

What are the best Sennheiser products?
Sennheiser is a top electronics brand specializing in audio products. It’s not as glamorous as other industry-leading brands, but there’s no question that their audio devices and equipment are of exceptional quality.
Sennheiser makes several kinds of audio electronics, primarily headphones and sound bars. However, it can be challenging when browsing its products to find the best ones. While most Sennheiser products are worth a look, a few premium devices are comparable to those of other top brands.
What are the most popular kinds of Sennheiser products?
Headphones
Headphones are the most common Sennheiser products with several styles available, so you can choose something that suits your needs. There are bulkier over-ear headphones for superior audio quality and lightweight in-ear headphones suitable for exercising and traveling. There are also high-end TV headphone systems specially designed for watching TV.
Sound bars
Sennheiser only offers one sound bar. However, it delivers fantastic audio quality, including crystal-clear dialogue and deep bass. It has everything you could ever want in a sound bar and is a terrific addition to any home theater or speaker setup.
What should I look for in Sennheiser headphones?
Audio quality
It might seem unnecessary to mention, but you want your headphones to deliver high-quality sound. Over-ear headphones are equipped to deliver deeper bass, but they should also reproduce clear mids and highs. Finding headphones that provide the sound you’re looking for can take some trial and error, but it’s best to consider your favorite genres and go from there.
Ingress Protection
An Ingress Protection, or IP, rating refers to a device’s resistance to dust particles and moisture. The first digit represents a device’s dust protection level, while the second indicates moisture resistance. For example, headphones with an IP54 rating offer limited dust protection and are resistant to water splashes from any direction.
Headphones with an IP rating are crucial for exercising, as those without an IP rating can become damaged by sweat and other moisture. Also, those without an IP rating aren’t suitable for environments like the beach where sand can get inside them.
Controls
The best Sennheiser headphones have built-in controls for managing music playback and accessing virtual assistants, such as Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri. Touch controls can also be used for managing phone calls and volume, and sometimes they can be customized through a smartphone app based on your preference.
Noise-canceling and transparency modes
Active noise-canceling is appealing for those who are often in noisy environments and want to drown out the exterior sound for a smoother listening experience. However, a transparency mode enhances ambient sound and helps wearers gain a better sense of their surroundings, which is helpful for cyclists and joggers.
Battery life
Top-quality wireless headphones should offer at least 20 to 30 hours of battery life. Wireless earbuds usually offer five to 10 but can be recharged in their portable case multiple times, often providing 18 to 24 total hours of listening.

TEL AVIV, Israel, July 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Circles is launching a new service offering free, anonymous, voice-only support rooms. The newest feature within the Circles support platform now invites people to connect around the common issues they face in their lives – anonymously, and for free. People going through similar life challenges or events drop into voice-only support rooms around those specific topics in a safe space, to give and get support whenever they need it, guided by a peer with that same lived experience.
The new free feature, named Voices, has been operating in beta phase for the last few weeks on the Circles support app, already hosting weekly voice-only support rooms, with the majority of users revisiting the platform on a weekly basis. A portion of Circles' recent $16.5M Series A funding is dedicated to expanding this new feature on the Circles platform.
Circles is the leading platform for anyone dealing with a life challenge to find group support, available on the App Store and Google Play, where up to 10 people experiencing similar life challenges are matched into groups and meet weekly via video chat to give and receive emotional support, guided by trained, vetted mental health professionals. Until now, Circles offering was subscription-based, supporting thousands of paying members across the country with hundreds of groups. Following Circles' success, it is launching Voices, the platform's newest, cost-free offering which lowers the barrier even further to anyone who could use support but finds that 1:1 therapy isn't a feasible or effective solution.
Voices' partners were handpicked to guide the first VoiceRooms, focusing on individuals who were already sharing their story to help others.
"People feel better after talking to someone going through similar experiences. I saw this when my mother was sick with cancer, and I felt this myself after she passed. We've proved this with the Circles platform, and now, we want to make it available to everyone," says Irad Eichler, Co-Founder and CEO of Circles. "Today, we're launching our new Voices feature with 100 initial partners across over 30 topics, so that anyone who feels alone and like no one understands them, can jump on and find someone who does, all day, everyday."

WASHINGTON – The monarch butterfly fluttered a step closer to extinction Thursday, as scientists put the iconic orange-and-black insect on the endangered list because of its fast dwindling numbers.
“It’s just a devastating decline,” said Stuart Pimm, an ecologist at Duke University who was not involved in the new listing. “This is one of the most recognizable butterflies in the world.”
The International Union for the Conservation of Nature added the migrating monarch butterfly for the first time to its “red list” of threatened species and categorized it as "endangered" — two steps from extinct.
The group estimates that the population of monarch butterflies in North America has declined between 22% and 72% over 10 years, depending on the measurement method.
“What we’re worried about is the rate of decline,” said Nick Haddad, a conservation biologist at Michigan State University. “It’s very easy to imagine how very quickly this butterfly could become even more imperiled.”
Haddad, who was not directly involved in the listing, estimates that the population of monarch butterflies he studies in the eastern United States has declined between 85% and 95% since the 1990s.
In North America, millions of monarch butterflies undertake the longest migration of any insect species known to science.
After wintering in the mountains of central Mexico, the butterflies migrate to the north, breeding multiple generations along the way for thousands of miles. The offspring that reach southern Canada then begin the trip back to Mexico at the end of summer.
“It’s a true spectacle and incites such awe,” said Anna Walker, a conservation biologist at New Mexico BioPark Society, who was involved in determining the new listing.
A smaller group spends winters in coastal California, then disperses in spring and summer across several states west of the Rocky Mountains. This population has seen an even more precipitous decline than the eastern monarchs, although there was a small bounce back last winter.
Emma Pelton of the nonprofit Xerces Society, which monitors the western butterflies, said the butterflies are imperiled by loss of habitat and increased use of herbicides and pesticides for agriculture, as well as climate change.
“There are things people can do to help,” she said, including planting milkweed, a plant that the caterpillars depend upon.
Nonmigratory monarch butterflies in Central and South America were not designated as endangered.
The United States has not listed monarch butterflies under the Endangered Species Act, but several environmental groups believe it should be listed.
The international union also announced new estimates for the global population of tigers, which are 40% higher than the most recent estimates from 2015.
The new figures, of between 3,726 and 5,578 wild tigers worldwide, reflect better methods for counting tigers and, potentially, an increase in their overall numbers, said Dale Miquelle, coordinator for the nonprofit Wildlife Conservation Society’s tiger program.
In the past decade, tiger populations have increased in Nepal, northern China and perhaps in India, while tigers have disappeared entirely from Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam, said Miquelle. They remain designated as endangered.
