Celeste Small was looking forward to being a bridesmaid in a friend's destination beach wedding. But, when her Allegiant flight touched down, her travel companion found her luggage waiting on the baggage carousel, while Small did not.
"Her bag came, and I said where's my bag? We checked them together," Small said.
Her suitcase was lost. But, the worst part was that inside the lost bag was her custom-made blue bridesmaids' gown.
Small was devastated, as she couldn't stand next to the bride at the wedding.
Worse, she had to spend $400 on new clothing and makeup just to attend the nuptials.
"I had to buy undergarments, another dress, shoes, clothes to wear," she said.
How to avoid a luggage nightmare
The US Department of Transportation says the 17 biggest airlines in the country mishandled more than 215,000 bags in April this year and another 231,000 in May.
Caroline Teel with Smarter Travel.com says it is a serious issue this summer.
"Lost luggage is a huge problem these days," she said. "Airlines are understaffed. They're losing bags left and right."
Teel says to avoid the risk of lost luggage, fly with a carry-on only if possible. And if you need to check a bag, she says the key is never to put any valuables or anything you need immediately upon landing (such as a dress for a wedding) into that checked suitcase.
Teel also suggests packing a tracking device, such as an Apple AirTag, in your luggage.
"In some instances, travelers have been able to point out to the gate agent, 'hey, I see my bag. It's on the tarmac,'" she said.
Allegiant finally located Small's bag the day after the wedding. Small says it was inadvertently sent to the wrong city.
In a statement, a spokesperson said, "we sincerely apologize for this inconvenience." adding that it's rare for Allegiant to mishandle a passenger’s bag.
That appears to be true. In May, Allegiant was the best out of the 17 airlines regarding lost luggage, mishandling one of every 630 bags. Unfortunately for Celeste Small, her bag was that one.
If something is essential, especially the day you arrive, put it in a carry-on, so you don't waste your money.

China's Nio to make power products for Europe at its first overseas plant
Adds Nio's partnership with Shell
SHANGHAI, Aug 1 (Reuters) - Chinese electric car maker Nio NIO.N plans to open its first overseas plant in September to make power products for the European market as it accelerates expansion abroad.
The plant, in Pest, Hungary, will develop and manufacture power products such as battery-swapping stations to serve European users, Nio said in a statement late on Friday.
Nio will speed up construction of battery swapping stations in Europe with a view to expanding sales of its cars in countries including Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark in the second half of this year.
The company is also partnering with oil giant Shell PLC SHEL.L to build battery swapping stations globally, starting with China and Europe this year, according to a Nio statement on Monday. Shell will open its charging network in Europe to Nio users, it added.
Nio started shipping its ES8s to Norway in 2021 and has opened a showroom in Oslo.
The company has been touting its after-sales services with city-centre showrooms and battery service networks as important competitive advantages.
Nio has said it planned to establish 4,000 battery swapping stations worldwide, a quarter of them outside China.
More Chinese electric vehicle (EV) startups and battery makers are increasing their presence in global markets where EV and energy storage demand is taking off.
Chinese battery maker Gotion High Tech Co 002074.SZ said in June it planned to locate a third of its production capacity outside China by 2025 with construction of its first overseas battery plant, in Gottingen, Germany, to begin by the end of the year.

A motorcyclist was airlifted to hospital after a crash in Argyll and Bute.
The A85 was closed for eight hours as a result of the crash, which took place around 1.50pm on Sunday.
The incident – which took place at Bridge of Awe near Taynuilt – involved a white Yamaha motorcycle and a grey Renault Master van.
The 35-year-old motorcyclist was airlifted to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow where his condition is described as “serious”.
The 38-year-old driver of the van was uninjured.
Sergeant Archie Mcguire said: “A man has sustained serious injuries as a result of this incident so it is important that we establish how this crash occurred.
“We are appealing for anyone who witnessed the crash and has not already spoken with officers to get in touch with police.
“In particular, we are keen to speak to a motorcyclist who we believe to have witnessed the collision.
“I would also ask anyone who was in the area with dash-cam devices to check their footage as it could hold images that could help us in our enquiries.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101, quoting then reference number 2010 of Sunday July 31. | https://www.thecourier.co.uk/news/scotland/3549649/motorcyclist-airlifted-to-hospital-in-serious-condition-after-crash/ | 2022-08-01T09:36:57Z | https://www.thecourier.co.uk/news/scotland/3549649/motorcyclist-airlifted-to-hospital-in-serious-condition-after-crash/ | true |
Tony Finau on Sunday clinched back-to-back tour titles with a five-stroke win at the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
The American, who won the 3M Open the previous week, was barely troubled through his final round in Detroit as he split six birdies with a single bogey to finish 26 under for the tournament.
His score was well-clear of runners-up Patrick Cantlay, Cameron Young and Taylor Pendrith, who were all tied on -21.
Speaking to reporters after his victory, Finau said: “What a wonderful couple of weeks it’s been.
“I won the golf tournament last week and for some reason I left – bogeying the 18th hole – I had kind of a sour taste in my mouth.
“I think it just gave me extra motivation to put myself there again this week and just prove to myself the type of champion that I am.”
England’s Matt Wallace was the best of the British contingent, finishing equal 10th on 16 under. | https://www.thecourier.co.uk/news/uk-world/3549343/tony-finau-claims-second-straight-pga-tour-victory/ | 2022-08-01T09:37:21Z | https://www.thecourier.co.uk/news/uk-world/3549343/tony-finau-claims-second-straight-pga-tour-victory/ | false |

IT Sustainability Think Tank: Collaboration is key for CIOs to reach their company’s green IT goals
It takes a village to build a credible and robust IT sustainability strategy, so who should enterprise leaders be collaborating with to make their organisation’s green IT goals a reality?
Collaboration and partnerships are increasingly seen as essential for advancing the systemic issues at the forefront of the sustainability agenda and achieving a company’s environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals.
IT can play a vital role in this endeavour. Particularly when it comes to information-sharing, IT plays a critical role in supporting collaboration efforts and helping put an effective ESG strategy into practice.
Enterprises should look to the circular economy – with IT as enabler – as a vital part of the solution to address climate change and sustainability challenges, in order to meet ESG goals and seize new growth possibilities.
Achieving a circular economy goes far beyond recycling. It necessitates fundamental adjustments to the way IT resources are sourced, as well as having an impact on how infrastructure or services are created, manufactured, marketed, consumed, recycled and disposed of. To achieve ESG goals, a working circular economy needs partnerships and collaboration.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 17 – Partnerships for the goals, could provide guidance in this regard, focusing on developing inclusive partnerships, built upon principles and values of ESG and a circular economy, and upon a shared vision and shared goals placing people and the planet at the centre.
And while some enterprises may have taken tentative steps in the past towards “greening up” their IT operations, others might be just starting out or might be in need of some help and advice on how to go further and achieve their goals faster than before.
In which case, who should they turn to for advice and how can they ensure that the support they receive is credible and does not stray into “greenwashing” territory?
CIOs can play a key role in the development of innovative technological offerings, services and IT/digital infrastructure, as well as the development of critical data platforms that will support an ESG plan.
Collaboration and partnerships are imperative to progress an enterprise’s ESG goals faster than working alone. IT will help to bring these ideas together, harmonising internal and external stakeholders to aid the achievement of ESG goals.
IT and technology could pave the way in fostering collaboration and executing ESG strategy. In this endeavour, the sustainability performance of the IT and digital infrastructure and services itself has to be improved.
Integral role for CIOs
CIOs will play an integral role in driving an organistion’s adoption of ESG goals, to monitor and report progress to both internal and external stakeholders throughout the supply chain, and this will depend on deploying the appropriate technologies and practices.
Also, an in-depth understanding of the enterprise’s ESG strategy and goals and circular economy will provide guidance in shaping the role that the CIO can play in this regard. Improving the material and energy efficiency of the processes and IT infrastructure as a whole is an important step.
IT can support the enterprise’s renewable energy adoption across the organisation and influence supply chain as well, supporting efforts to track, monitor, measure and reduce the enterprise’s scope one, two and three emissions, driving accountability.
Developing deep and meaningful partnerships and seeking opportunities to collaborate can help to implement circular economy practices, continually exploring ways to reduce e-waste, improve re-use and extend life of resources and refurbishment efforts.
CIOs closely working with sourcing, procurement and purchasing is vital to ensure these are in line with the overall ESG strategy of the enterprise. ESG should form a key part of the assessment criteria for selecting suppliers and service providers to work with, thus positively influencing the supply chain.
To ensure the success of their ESG programmes, enterprises should make their sustainability objectives clear to all divisions within the organisation and prioritise these initiatives for both internal stakeholders and external partners. End-users should be kept abreast of the vision and execution to ensure adoption and drive accountability across all layers.
Enterprises need to refocus on value creation that adds environmental sustainability, ESG objectives, employee and end-user participation, internal collaboration, particularly in terms of IT and business strategy, and IT procurement to financial imperatives as metrics of success. | https://www.computerweekly.com/opinion/IT-Sustainability-Think-Tank-Collaboration-is-key-for-CIOs-to-reach-their-companys-green-IT-goals | 2022-08-01T09:42:01Z | https://www.computerweekly.com/opinion/IT-Sustainability-Think-Tank-Collaboration-is-key-for-CIOs-to-reach-their-companys-green-IT-goals | false |

When Lisa Gordon set out to find the perfect coworking space for her new business, she knew she wanted one that met all of her needs.
"I knew I needed a space where I could feel very focused and be in my flow and push me past [these] dips while I'm making this transition [to entrepreneurship]," Gordon told NPR.
The retired psychology professor-turned-social entrepreneur said she tried a series of coworking spaces in the Santa Monica, Calif., area, but felt as though they came with pretentiousness that didn't feel welcoming — especially as a woman of color.
"Although it was very empowering, I wasn't able to relax. I felt that in the spaces I was somewhat singled out because there wasn't a lot of people who looked like me there," Gordon said. "And I accepted it because I didn't know that there was anything else available."
But there was. Ultimately, Lisa found her way to becoming a member of Blackbird House.
A community coworking space based in the Los Angeles area, Blackbird House aims to support, guide and advance women of color and their allies — both professionally and personally in a "safe space."
"I didn't see a lot of women of color represented [in coworking spaces]. I was curious about what it would look like to start a space like this," founder and CEO Bridgid Coulter Cheadle told NPR.
"We are unapologetically centered on women of color. But, we are also open to allies," Cheadle said, who transitioned into interior design after getting her start as an actress in the 90s.
When she was searching for an office space for her interior design business, Cheadle said she had a lot of trouble finding one that felt inclusive.
"I was always drawn to spaces created by women, for women. Eventually, I thought 'I really want to develop something for women of color,'" Cheadle said.
Women of color are still searching for inclusive work environments
The concept of coworking spaces aims to bring people together for a sense of community. But research suggests that women of color are still facing challenges in finding an inclusive job environment.
Researchers from McKinsey & Company say the pandemic has disproportionately affected women in comparison to men. And women of color "continue to have the worst experience at work."
In McKinsey's 2021 Women in the Workplace report, data shows that women of color only make up 17% of entry-level corporate positions in the workplace. And they only account for 4% of C-suite leaders.
Erika James, dean of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, said in a 2020 interview on All Things Considered that change in the business world has been slow to reflect both the current gender and racial makeup of our country.
"I think if we can create social media platforms, if we can put people on the moon and if we can have self-driving cars, there's very little that we can't do," James said.
"So the fact that we have not yet created a more diverse work environment means that we simply haven't prioritized it," she added.
It's more than a coworking space
By offering in-person and digital opportunities that cater to the productivity, well-being and advocacy of women of color, Cheadle aims to expand the Blackbird House brand across the U.S. and internationally.
The flagship location in Culver City offers members a lineup of amenities that include a communal work environment, six private offices, multiple conference rooms, a meditation room and a café.
"Some people come in and they're like, 'I need to get my work done' and you can put your nose to the grind and get it done," Cheadle said.
"But then there's this other side of getting it done, looking around and seeing people [in the room] who look like you," she added.
Spending a significant amount of time curating Blackbird to feel welcoming to its members, Cheadle said she hopes this coworking space is more than just a "folding table in the back," but an experience for its members.
"I want you to walk in [to Blackbird] and think this is as beautiful as SoHo House or Noia House or any of these other spaces that are gorgeous and designed luxuriously. I want us to think of ourselves in that way," she said.
For Gordon, she says Blackbird is a space where she can be herself without the pressure of having to code-switch while working.
"It's perfect for me. It's what I wanted in other coworking spaces," she said. "I don't have to do that at Blackbird. I can just breathe."

As Pelosi begins Asia tour, China warns against visiting Taiwan
SINGAPORE, Aug 1 (Reuters) - U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi kicked off a closely-watched Asia tour on Monday in Singapore as China warned that its military would never "sit idly by" if she were to visit Taiwan, the self-ruled island claimed by Beijing.
Amid widespread speculation over whether she would make a stop in Taiwan, Pelosi's office announced on Sunday that she was leading a Congressional delegation to the region that would include visits to Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea and Japan. It did not mention Taiwan.
Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said that it would be "a gross interference in China's internal affairs" if Pelosi visits Taiwan, and warned that it would lead to "very serious developments and consequences."
"We would like to tell the United States once again that China is standing by, the Chinese People's Liberation Army will never sit idly by, and China will take resolute responses and strong countermeasures to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity," Zhao told a regular daily briefing.
Asked what kind of measures the PLA might take, Zhao said: "if she dares to go, then let us wait and see."
China views visits by U.S. officials to Taiwan as sending an encouraging signal to the pro-independence camp in the island. Washington does not have official diplomatic ties with Taiwan but is bound by U.S. law to provide the island with the means to defend itself.
A visit by Pelosi, who is third in the line of succession to the presidency and a long-time critic of China, would come amid worsening ties between Washington and Beijing. Republican Newt Gingrich was the last House speaker to visit Taiwan, in 1997.
During a phone call last Thursday, Chinese President Xi Jinping warned his U.S. counterpart Joe Biden that Washington should abide by the one-China principle and "those who play with fire will perish by it".
Biden told Xi that U.S. policy on Taiwan had not changed and that Washington strongly opposes unilateral efforts to change the status quo or undermine peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
On Monday, Taiwan Premier Su Tseng-chang did not directly respond when asked whether Pelosi will visit on Thursday, as local media have speculated.
"We always warmly welcome visits to our country by distinguished foreign guests," he told reporters in Taipei.
Shi Yinhong, an international relations professor at Renmin University in Beijing, said that if Pelosi visits Taiwan it would prompt the strongest counter-measures by Beijing in years, but he did not expect that to trigger major military conflict.
"China has reiterated in no ambiguous terms its opposition to Taiwan separatism. The U.S. has reiterated many times its one-China policy has not changed and that it is against any change to the status quo by either side of the Taiwan Strait," he said.
"Unless by accident, I am sure neither side would intentionally take military action that could lead to a major security risk."
SINGAPORE VISIT
On Monday, Pelosi and her delegation met with Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, discussing issues including cross-strait relations, the Ukraine war and climate change, Singapore's foreign ministry said.
"PM Lee highlighted the importance of stable US-China relations for regional peace and security," it said.
Beijing considers Taiwan to be part of its territory and has never renounced using force to bring the island under its control. Taiwan rejects China's sovereignty claims and says only its people can decide the island's future.
Last Wednesday, Biden told reporters he thought the U.S. military believed a Pelosi visit to Taiwan was "not a good idea right now".

Russia has little ability to help with Nord Stream 1 repair, Kremlin says
MOSCOW, Aug 1 (Reuters) - The Nord Stream 1 gas pipeline's equipment has malfunctions which require urgent repairs, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday, adding that the situation needed a fix which Russia has little ability to help with.
The delivery of a Nord Stream 1 gas turbine to Germany from Canada after maintenance was not in line with the contract, a Gazprom executive said last week, signaling a deepening of a row in which Russia has cited turbine problems as its reason for cutting gas supply via Nord Stream 1.

Nancy Pelosi arrives in Singapore as she begins tour of Asia
Pelosi's Asian tour itinerary includes Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea and Japan -- but makes no mention of Taiwan
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-CA, landed in Singapore early Monday morning to kick off her visit to the Indo-Pacific region. Her office said she plans to visit at least four Asian countries during her trip, but there was no mention of a stop in Taiwan amid threats from China.
Pelosi arrived with her Congressional delegation before dawn. She will visit Singapore President Halimah Yacob and Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, and meet with several Cabinet Ministers, according to a spokesperson for Singapore’s foreign ministry.
The Speaker is also expected to attend a cocktail reception with the American Chamber of Commerce in Singapore.
Her visit to Asia will not include any media access. The delegation includes Reps. Gregory Meeks of New York, Mark Takano of California, Suzan DelBene of Washington, Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois and Andy Kim of New Jersey.
NANCY PELOSI'S ASIA VISIT ITINERARY LEAVES OUT MENTION OF POSSIBLE STOP IN TAIWAN
In addition to Singapore, Pelosi will visit Malaysia, South Korea and Japan. The trip will center on "mutual security, economic partnership and democratic governance" in the Indo-Pacific region, her office said in a press release over the weekend.
"In Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea and Japan, our delegation will hold high-level meetings to discuss how we can further advance our shared interests and values, including peace and security, economic growth and trade, the COVID-19 pandemic, the climate crisis, human rights and democratic governance," she said in the release.
Her itinerary makes no mention of Taiwan. Her Asia tour comes after President Joe Biden said last month that U.S. military officials believe a visit to Taiwan is "not a good idea."
Beijing views Taiwan as part of its own territory and Chinese President Xi Jinping warned Biden in a phone call last week that the U.S. must not "play with fire" regarding China's involvement with Taiwan.
CHINA ANNOUNCES LIVE-FIRE NAVAL EXERCISES AHEAD OF POSSIBLE PELOSI TAIWAN VISIT
"Those who play with fire will perish by it. It is hoped that the U.S. will be clear-eyed about this," a Chinese readout of the call said.
Chinese officials have said Pelosi visiting Taiwan would violate the One China Policy and would constitute aiding an illegal rebellion. A Chinese state media personality even suggested shooting down the Speaker's plane if she does visit.
The U.S. does not have official relations with Taiwan, although it has increased engagements with the island and has tried to discourage China from invading. Pelosi would be the highest-ranking elected U.S. official to visit the island since then-Speaker Newt Gingrich in 1997.
The Chinese military has frequently sent planes into Taiwan's airspace to test the region's air defense zone. And on Saturday, China held live-fire military exercises in the Taiwan Strait.
The White House said Friday that there is no reason for the U.S. and China to "come to blows" if Pelosi did pay a visit to Taiwan and that a stop on the island would not signal a change in U.S. policy.
For more than 40 years, the U.S. has followed a One China Policy, recognizing Beijing as the government of China while still maintaining informal relations and defense ties with Taiwan.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Former Philippine President Fidel Valdez Ramos, a U.S.-trained ex-general who saw action in the Korean and Vietnam wars and played a key role in a 1986 pro-democracy uprising that ousted a dictator, has died. He was 94.
Ramos’s family announced his death with profound sadness but did not provide other details in a brief statement that asked for privacy.
One of his longtime aides, Norman Legaspi, told The Associated Press that Ramos had been in and out of the hospital in recent years due to a heart condition and had suffered from dementia.
Some of Ramos’s relatives were with him when he died on Sunday at the Makati Medical Center in metropolitan Manila, Legaspi said.
“He was an icon. We lost a hero and I lost a father,” said Legaspi, a retired Philippine air force official, who served as a close staff to Ramos in and out of government for about 15 years.
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. condoled with the family of Ramos in a Facebook post. “We did not only lose a good leader but also a member of the family,” he said.
The newly elected president is the namesake son of the former Philippine dictator, whose 1986 ouster came after Ramos, then a top official of the Philippine Constabulary, and defense chief Juan Ponce Enrile withdrew their support in defections that sparked massive army-backed protests.
Ramos was the late dictator’s second cousin, and in 1972 had helped him implement martial law during which thousands of people were incarcerated, tortured and became victims of extrajudicial killings and disappearances.
The Department of National Defense, which was once led by him, said Ramos was a decorated soldier who spearheaded the modernization of the military, one of Asia’s most underfunded. He organized the elite special forces of the army and the national police.
The United States, the European Union and other foreign governments expressed their condolences. “His contributions to the U.S.-Philippines bilateral relationship and advancing our shared goals of peace and democracy will always be remembered,” the U.S. Embassy in Manila said.
The cigar-chomping Ramos, known for his “we can do this” rallying call, thumbs-up sign, attention to detail and firm handshakes, served as president from 1992 to 1998, succeeding the democracy icon, Corazon Aquino.
She was swept into the presidency in 1986 after the largely peaceful “People Power” revolt that toppled the elder Marcos and became a harbinger of change in authoritarian regimes worldwide.
In a memorable moment of the revolt, as the tide turned against Marcos, Ramos jumped in triumph with his hands high up while Enrile was rallying a crowd under a Philippine flagpole, drawing applause and cheers from rebel forces. The scene was captured by an AP and a few other photojournalists and had been reenacted by Ramos each year during the anniversary of the revolt, until age and his failing health prevented him from showing up.
Marcos, his family and cronies were driven into U.S. exile, where he died in 1989.
After Aquino rose to the presidency, Ramos became the military chief of staff and later defense secretary, successfully defending her from several violent coup attempts.
In 1992, Ramos won the presidential elections and became the largely Roman Catholic nation’s first Protestant president. His term was marked by major reforms and attempts to dismantle telecommunications and other business monopolies that triggered a rare economic boom, bolstered the image of the impoverished Southeast Asian country and drew praise from business leaders and the international community.
One of his legacies was the 1996 signing of a peace pact between his government and the Moro National Liberation Front, the largest Muslim separatist group at the time in the volatile southern Philippines, homeland of minority Muslims.
Ramos’s calm bearing in times of crises earned him the moniker “Steady Eddie.”
A son of a longtime legislator and foreign secretary, Ramos graduated from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in 1950. He was a part of the Philippine combat contingent that fought in the Korean War and was also involved in the Vietnam War as a non-combat civil military engineer.
Ramos is survived by his wife, Amelita Ramos, a school official, pianist, sportswoman and an environmental advocate, and their four daughters. Their second child, Josephine Ramos-Samartino, died in 2011.

NEW ORLEANS (AP)Perhaps the late Sam Mills would have been a blue-chip college recruit and high NFL draft pick had someone invented – as the 5-foot-9 linebacker memorably suggested –- “a computer to measure heart.”
Mills played Division III college football and was not drafted. That made his rise to stardom with the New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers – and his enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, this weekend – all the more remarkable.
The player nicknamed “Field Mouse” had the will to “keep pounding,” as he’d famously say. It made him an inspiration to people facing long odds in many aspects of life, whether they were undersized football prospects or cancer patients.
“I get emotional talking about him and I always have, because the darn guy was special,” said Jim Mora, who coached Mills in the USFL with the Philadelphia and Baltimore Stars, and then with the Saints. “I loved the guy.”
Former Saints quarterback Bobby Hebert was struck by how little Mills resembled an NFL player in public. Not only was Mills a bit shorter than the average guy on the street, but he wore prescription glasses and had an air of politeness and approachability.
“He was a straight-and-narrow, great guy, just down to earth,” Hebert said, noting that Mills also ran Bible study with the Saints. “Not only was he a leader, like Xs and Os, but also a spiritual leader. … Sam was as tough as they come on the field and a perfect gentleman off.”
Hebert also marveled at Mills’ ability to so thoroughly win over the fan bases of two long-time divisional rivals.
“You know, I go to the same division, from the Saints to the Falcons, and I’m a mercenary,” Hebert said. “Sam’s a hero for both” New Orleans and Carolina.
Mills was part of New Orleans’ vaunted “Dome Patrol,” which included fellow Hall-of-Famer Rickey Jackson, as well as Vaughn Johnson and Pat Swilling, and is widely cited as one of the best four-linebacker units in NFL history.
Saints players who’d gaze downward at Mills in defensive huddles “all looked up to him,” Mora said. “Maybe they felt like he was an overachiever. He wasn’t. He was just that good.”
Outside the Panthers’ home stadium stands a statue of Mills wearing his No. 51 jersey. Mills spent the last three of his 12 NFL seasons in Carolina. In 1996, his second with the Panthers, he was named All-Pro. He also went into coaching with Carolina, and was an assistant when he was diagnosed with intestinal cancer before the 2003 season.
Mills kept coaching during his treatment, and made what is known as his “keep pounding” speech on the eve of the club’s Super Bowl match-up with New England at the end of that season.
“When I found out I had cancer, there were two things I could do: quit or keep pounding,” Mills said then. “I’m a fighter. I kept pounding. You’re fighters, too. Keep pounding!”
The quarterback of that Panthers team was Louisiana native Jake Delhomme, who grew up watching Mills call the Saints’ pre-snap defensive signals, fearlessly shed blocks from offensive linemen who dwarfed him and then plant ball-carriers on their backs.
“I always kind of revered Sam Mills,” Delhomme said. “I was that young kid that was like, ‘Man, that’s the undersized guy. That’s the guy that made it. That’s the Field Mouse.’”
During the speech, “You felt that emotion,” Delhomme recalled. “It was like, ‘Oh my God, let’s put on the uniform now. Let’s play right now!’”
But Delhomme’s most poignant memory of Mills came earlier that season, a few days after a loss to Dallas. Delhomme recalled feeling sore, sluggish and uncharacteristically sorry for himself as he walked to practice. Then Mills jogged past, slapped Delhomme on the back side and said, “Let’s go get better.”
Delhomme refers to that moment as an “awakening” in which he told himself: “You need to grow up and try to be just a tenth of this guy.”
“Everybody knew he was dying,” Delhomme continued. “He was doing chemo. And he’s running out to practice … and he’s going to coach his ass off.”
Mills was just 45 when he died in April 2005. “Keep pounding” remains the Panthers’ tag line.
“He lived ‘keep pounding,’ and it resonates with people because it’s real and because it’s not just a sports thing,” said Mills’ eldest son, Washington Commanders defensive assistant coach Sam Mills III.
“I feel honored that I’ve had a chance to be around someone that’s touched so many people’s lives,” Mills III added. “You see how many people he’s affected with his story of small school or small stature. And then when you go post-cancer, you see how many other people who have nothing to do with football would come up and speak to him about their fight. I feel privileged to have been a part of that – to see what that has meant to people, to see what stopping and talking to someone for two minutes out of your day means to people.”
When Mills was playing high school football in Long Branch, New Jersey, he had little expectation of going to college until his coach persuaded him. He was good enough at Montclair State to receive training camp invitations from the Cleveland Browns and Toronto Argonauts of the CFL. Neither team kept him because of concerns about his size, and he went back to New Jersey to teach photography at East Orange High School and serve as an assistant football coach.
But when the USFL was preparing for its inaugural season in 1983, then-Brown’s coach Sam Rutigliano, never comfortable with Cleveland’s decision to cut Mills, encouraged Philadelphia Stars general manager Carl Peterson to take a serious look at him.
Mora, then the Stars’ head coach, recalled linebacker coach Vince Tobin asserting, “I don’t care how tall he is. This guy is a football player.”
When Mora started to evaluate Mills more closely, he noticed that Mills was quick, had exceptional lower body strength, and that his shorter stature could be an asset.
Linebackers are taught to get their shoulder-pad level below that of the player they’re trying to tackle because it gives them leverage. Having also been a high school wrestler, Mills knew all about leverage and taking opponents to the ground.
“In football,” Mora noted, “sometimes the low man wins.”
Mills never “loafed” during practice and always made meetings on time, Mora said. He wasn’t just a run-stuffer, either. He could cover tight ends and running backs out of the backfield, and his positional soundness and anticipation of QBs’ intentions helped him effectively cover players who were taller than he was.
When Mora was hired by the Saints in 1986, he persuade the club to sign Mills.
In 181 NFL games, Mills made 1,265 tackles, had 23 fumble recoveries, forced 22 fumbles, had 20½ sacks and intercepted 11 passes. He also was part of the first four playoff teams in New Orleans Saints history and the first in Panthers history.
“It was hard to find negatives about the guy on or off the field,” Mora said. “He probably would have had a great future as a coach. He knew the game, he studied the game and always prepared mentally. Players would have loved playing for him.”
Mora has coached other Hall-of-Fame players – household names including quarterback Peyton Manning and receiver Marvin Harrison. Seeing Mills enter the Hall will be gratifying for Mora in a different way.
Many football fans “don’t know Sam Mills unless they are astute, older football guys,” Mora said. “He’s one of the best guys I ever coached, but I always have to explain a little bit about who Sam Mills was.”
Maybe less so after Mills’ enshrinement.

Q: I found Ilyce’s book, “100 Questions Every First-Time Home Buyer Should Ask,” to be extremely helpful. However, there was one section that I felt received short shrift, and that was the section about receiving the keys from the owner after the closing.
I expect to have my closing this week, and I would like to know what to do if I have a problem with the keys after I had already made full payment for the home.
I would appreciate, very much, any advice you can provide regarding this issue.
A: Congratulations on almost closing on your property. Why are you concerned that you might receive keys that don’t work? Or that you will not receive all of the keys that the sellers have in their possession? Have the sellers been problematic during the home-buying process? Did you or someone you know have a previous problem with keys when you (or they) rented or purchased a home?
Here’s what many people do immediately upon closing: They rekey their locks. That way, it doesn’t matter whether you get all of the keys you’re entitled to. You can hire a locksmith to put in new locks or even electronic locks, or you can sometimes take care of that yourself, if you’re handy and know what you’re doing. You can remove the cylinders and then go to a locksmith to get new keys made.
If you’re in a condo and are worried about not getting mailroom or storeroom keys, for example, you can ask for those to be delivered in time for the final walk-through, which you should be doing on the day of, after the seller has moved out, and then test them before the closing.
Usually, sellers leave at least one full set of keys for the buyer for the closing. The listing broker may have a full set in the lockbox or may have a full set at the time of the walk-through of the home. You’d expect to see keys for any front and back doors to the home, as well as keys to any other outside doors to the home.
In association developments, you might also expect to receive common area keys as well as keys to mailboxes, a fitness room, a bike room, storage lockers and garages. In addition to these keys, if you have a car to park, you should expect to get a garage door opener and fobs. You should also keep in mind that some single-family homes also have mailbox keys.
Before performing your walk-through of the property before closing, you should ask your real estate agent to make sure that all of these keys are located and available at that time. You can then check to make sure these keys work before the closing.
Sometimes sellers lose indoor keys to closets and the like. You might not see all keys at closing, but you really need to be able to get into the home and lock it to keep it safe. You also should be able to get in and out of any garage and in and out of any building. Surely, you should also be able to retrieve your mail. Lastly, after closing you should be able to get around a building or development by using the common key, key fobs or codes.
Then comes the question of what you might do if you don’t get all the keys, remotes or fobs at closing.
One option: a holdback. If you feel you’re missing a set of keys, you can negotiate to withhold some funds at the closing until all wayward keys and fobs have been delivered. Sometimes, while unpacking a box, they find an extra set here or there, and then those typically get dropped off later, either directly or through the listing agent.
This happened to us recently. We were helping a family member close on a property they had lived in for 45 years. In all that time, there were extra sets of keys made and handed out. A few days after the closing, Sam realized he still had an extra set, and immediately let the broker know. We dropped them off with the building’s doorman the next day.
Sometimes, agents have an extra set of keys. You’ll want to make sure you get those. And if there’s a key left in the lockbox (used by agents to gain access to the house while it was listed), you’ll want to make sure you get that one, too.
Finally, if you have some concerns about the seller not vacating the property before the closing, or that the seller might keep a set of keys, you’ll want to check everything carefully at the property before the closing.
We always recommend buyers do a final walk-through after the sellers have moved out but before the closing. You need to check to be sure the sellers have taken what they were supposed to and left items that were specifically listed in the contract. Remember, the house should be in the same condition as the day you bought it. Be sure to look for any damage caused by the move out, so you can have that conversation before you close on the property.
We hope you don’t have a problem at your closing, but the best way to ward off any issues is to have a plan in place. Once you close, either hire someone to rekey your locks, buy and install new locks, or make sure your agent works with the listing agent to secure all keys to the property before the closing. And always do the walk-through after the seller has moved out.
More condo associations are installing keyless entry systems in their buildings and locking elevators, typically by floor. In these situations, associations will have new owners download an app to their phone and give them instructions as to how to use the app to get in and out of common areas in the building.
In the next few years, we think we’ll see fewer keys and more apps and codes that get reprogrammed by the building or association once a change of ownership has happened. So don’t forget to ask about any codes for keyless entry doors and how and when that switch will happen.
We hope your closing goes well.

LONDON — Maybe the Premier League’s “Big Six” should actually be renamed the “Big Two.”
It has created the highest-quality rivalry ever seen in English soccer, given the points totals the teams push each other to achieve every season.
The question now is who, if anyone, can break this City-Liverpool stranglehold in the Premier League?
The answer will likely be found among Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester United, the other four teams making up the six English clubs who tried to become part of the now-defunct European Super League breakaway.
In their own ways, they have all been busy during the offseason: Chelsea has new ownership, United has another new manager, and Tottenham and Arsenal have been among the most active movers in the transfer market.
Here’s a look at the prospects of the four title outsiders this season:
CHELSEA
Chelsea became a major force in English soccer in Roman Abramovich’s reign starting in 2003. Can that be maintained now that the Russian oligarch has been forced out?
The post-Abramovich era has gotten off to a busy start under Chelsea’s new American ownership, which has a quirky feature — the guy who fronts the club leadership, Todd Boehly, installed himself not only as chairman but as interim sporting director in control of offseason transfer dealings.
There were fears his lack of soccer knowledge might undermine him but a couple of early player arrivals looked promising. England forward Raheem Sterling came from Manchester City in one of the league’s standout transfers of the offseason and Senegal defender Kalidou Koulibaly joined from Napoli to fill the void at center back left by the departures of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen.
Further strengthening of the squad has proved difficult, however, and manager Thomas Tuchel said after a 4-0 loss to Arsenal in a July 24 friendly that he “cannot guarantee we will be ready” for the start of the season, adding there were still some players in the squad “trying to leave us.”
Chelsea still looks a couple of center backs short and there are question marks about whether there are enough goals in the likely front line of Sterling, Kai Havertz and Mason Mount.
TOTTENHAM
They’ve got one of the best managers in the world and, after something of an offseason spending spree, a deep and versatile squad. Maybe Antonio Conte’s Tottenham could be the team to push into title contention?
With the front three of Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski linking up to great effect, Tottenham had almost as strong a finish to last season as City and Liverpool, winning 11 of its last 16 games. That included a victory at City — completing the home-and-away double over the eventual champions — and a draw at Anfield that ultimately cost Liverpool the title.
Conte, who took over in November and has quickly stamped his own style on the team with a 3-4-3 formation, demanded that he was backed in the transfer market. And he was.
Brazil forward Richarlison has arrived from Everton to provide options across the front three, Yves Bissouma has joined from Brighton to offer much-needed strength in depth in central midfield, and Djed Spence is a highly rated wing back who might have been the best player in the second-division Championship last season.
ARSENAL
Arsenal’s lack of squad depth was highlighted in the way the team faltered at the end of last season, dropping out of the Champions League qualifying positions and getting replaced in them by north London rival Tottenham.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta was eager to rectify that this offseason and he has turned to the club he left to come to London. Manchester City, where Arteta was assistant coach under Pep Guardiola from 2016-19, has sold both Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko to Arsenal.
Crucially, both are versatile players, with Jesus able to operate on the wing or at center forward and Zinchenko a midfielder who mostly played at left back at City.
With Fabio Vieira, a young attacking midfielder, joining from Porto for potentially 40 million euros ($42 million) and 19-year-old Brazilian striker Marquinhos also arriving, Arsenal has spent about $150 million this offseason and has an even younger squad being nurtured by Arteta.
For that reason, a title bid looks highly unlikely but qualifying for the Champions League will be the target. And preseason results have been encouraging, with Jesus settling in quickly — scoring in a 4-0 win over Chelsea and a hat trick in a 6-0 victory over Sevilla.
MANCHESTER UNITED
A new manager in Erik ten Hag. An unsettled star in Cristiano Ronaldo. A bunch of new players with past or present links to the Dutch league in Lisandro Martinez, Christian Eriksen and Tyrell Malacia.
Who knows what to expect from United this season?
For sure, the fans will demand a finish higher than the sixth place of last season but that is not a certainty considering the competition in the league and the spending of United’s rivals.
What happens to Ronaldo is the key. If he stays, will the 37-year-old striker bow to the demands of Ten Hag, or the other way around? He played 45 minutes in a 1-1 draw against Rayo Vallecano on Sunday, but questions remain. If he goes, does a likely front three of Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Jadon Sancho have enough goals and staying power in a season that also includes an often-grueling Europa League campaign?
Eriksen will provide more creativity in midfield but United is still short of a top-class holding midfielder. There are also question marks about how quickly Martinez, a small, ball-playing center back who Ten Hag worked with at Ajax, fits in to English soccer.

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- JELD-WEN Holding, Inc. (NYSE: JELD) today announced results for the three and six months ended June 25, 2022, including second quarter net revenue of $1,331.0 million, net income of $45.8 million, adjusted EBITDA of $125.8 million, cash flow used in operations of $165.7 million, earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.52, and adjusted EPS of $0.57.
Comparability is to the same period in the prior year, unless otherwise noted. References to "core" financial results exclude the impact of foreign exchange and acquisitions completed in the last twelve months.
Highlights
- Net revenue increased 6.8% for the second quarter driven by 11% core revenue growth
- Eighth consecutive quarter of core revenue growth; core revenue grew in each segment, led by North America segment
- Realized 12% pricing to mitigate significant cost inflation
- Adjusted EBITDA decreased 15.1% in the second quarter to $125.8 million
- Repurchased 5.2 million shares in the first six months or approximately 6% of total shares outstanding at year-end 2021
- The board of directors approved new $200 million share repurchase authorization
"Significant cost inflation and softening retail demand in North America and Europe impacted our profitability more than we anticipated in the second quarter," said Gary S. Michel, chair and chief executive officer. "These results are not indicative of the performance-driven culture and expectations at JELD-WEN. We know we have the right strategy, our long-term macroeconomic fundamentals remain strong, and our productivity initiatives are yielding benefits. But, we must execute better and consistently deliver on our promises to customers and shareholders. We have already taken aggressive actions to reduce costs and are actively working on additional opportunities to accelerate margin expansion."
"Even with the impact of these aggressive cost savings decisions, we have adjusted our full year expectations for revenue growth and adjusted EBITDA, as market headwinds are likely to persist through year-end," continued Michel. "We are confident in our strategy to deliver profitable growth and we remain focused on operational excellence, world-class innovation and exceptional customer service that will create long-term value for our shareholders."
Second Quarter 2022 Results
Net revenue for the three months ended June 25, 2022 increased $85.2 million, or 6.8%, to $1,331.0 million, compared to $1,245.8 million for the same period last year. The increase in net revenue was driven by 11% core revenue growth, partially offset by a 4% adverse foreign exchange impact. Core revenue growth was driven by price realization (+12%), partially offset by lower volume/mix (1%).
Net income was $45.8 million in the second quarter, compared to net income of $60.7 million in the same period last year, a decrease of $14.9 million. The decrease in net income was largely due to lower gross profit from cost inflation, partially offset by higher other income and lower SG&A expense. Adjusted net income for the second quarter decreased $10.1 million, or 16.7%, to $50.2 million, compared to $60.3 million in the same period last year.
EPS for the second quarter was $0.52, compared to EPS of $0.60 for the same quarter last year. Adjusted EPS was $0.57, compared to adjusted EPS of $0.59 in the same quarter a year ago.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased $22.4 million, or 15.1%, to $125.8 million, compared to the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA margin declined 240 basis points to 9.5% primarily due to higher cost inflation, partially offset by price realization and lower SG&A expense.
On a segment basis for the second quarter of 2022, compared to the same period last year:
- North America - Net revenue increased $99.0 million, or 13.4%, to $839.1 million, due to a 14% increase in core revenue. Core revenue increased due to price (+14%). Adjusted EBITDA margin was 11.1%.
- Europe - Net revenue decreased $9.7 million, or 2.8%, to $340.0 million, due to a 12% adverse impact from foreign exchange, partially offset by a 9% increase in core revenue. Core revenue increased due to price (+11%), partially offset by lower volume/mix (2%). Adjusted EBITDA margin was 5.9%.
- Australasia - Net revenue decreased $4.1 million, or 2.6%, to $151.8 million, due to a 7% adverse impact from foreign exchange, partially offset by a 4% increase in core revenue. Core revenue increased due to price (+8%), partially offset by lower volume/mix (4%). Adjusted EBITDA margin was 10.5%.
Cash Flow and Balance Sheet
Net cash flow used in operations was $165.7 million during the first six months of 2022, compared to net cash flow from operations of $40.7 million during the same period a year ago. The increase in net cash flow used in operations was due to higher investment in working capital and lower net income. Free cash flow used was $200.5 million in the first six months of 2022, compared to free cash flow used of $4.0 million during the same period a year ago. The increase in free cash flow used was due to higher net cash flow used in operations, partially offset by lower capital expenditures.
The company repurchased 3,430,006 shares in the second quarter for $64.3 million.
Total liquidity, including cash and cash equivalents and undrawn committed credit facilities, was $550.8 million as of June 25, 2022, compared to total liquidity of $837.8 million as of December 31, 2021. The decrease in total liquidity was primarily due to cash utilized for share repurchases, higher working capital investments, and decreased earnings in the current period.
Revised 2022 Outlook
- Core revenue growth remains at approximately 10%, but due to foreign exchange translation headwinds, revenue growth is revised to a range of 4% to 6% from a previous range of 7% to 10%.
- Adjusted EBITDA is lowered to a range of $430 million to $450 million from previous outlook of $520 million to $565 million.
- Full year 2022 capital expenditures are expected to be within a range of $90 million to $110 million, compared to the previous outlook of $130 million to $150 million.
Share Repurchase Authorization
On July 28, 2022, the board of directors approved a new share repurchase authorization to purchase up to $200 million of the company's common stock. The new share repurchase program, which replaces the company's existing program, is designed to return value to shareholders by offsetting dilution from stock issuances and reducing share count over time. The company expects to fund repurchases through cash on hand and cash generated from operations. The timing and total amount of stock repurchases will be determined by management at its discretion and will vary depending on certain factors including, but not limited to, market conditions, available funds and alternative uses of capital. This program has no termination date, may be suspended or discontinued at any time and does not obligate the company to acquire any amount of common stock.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this press release are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements by our CEO and statements regarding our business strategies and ability to execute on our plans, market potential, future financial performance, customer demand, the potential of our categories, brands and innovations, the impact of our footprint rationalization and modernization program, the impact of acquisitions and divestitures on our business and our ability to maximize value and integrate operations, our pipeline of productivity projects, the estimated impact of tax reform on our results, litigation outcomes, and our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, prospects, assumptions, or other future events. Forward-looking statements are generally identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as "anticipate", "believe", "continue", "could", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "may", "might", "plan", "potential", "predict", "seek", or "should", or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Where, in any forward-looking statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans, expectations, assumptions, estimates, and projections of our management. Although we believe that these statements are based on reasonable expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections, they are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, many of which are beyond our control that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different from those indicated in such statements.
The assumptions underlying the guidance provided for 2022 include revenue impact from increased pricing; softening demand; product mix; headwind from foreign exchange; and margin expansion from volume, pricing, and productivity, offset by higher expenses related to material and freight inflation and SG&A expense. Additionally, the outlook does not include the impact of potential acquisitions or divestitures and assumes no new COVID-19 lockdowns or restrictions, which could unfavorably impact our operations, labor availability, and supply chain continuity.
Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements include risks associated with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the company and our employees, customers, and suppliers, and other factors, including the factors discussed in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The forward-looking statements included in this release are made as of the date hereof, and except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update, amend or clarify any forward-looking statements to reflect events, new information or circumstances occurring after the date of this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release presents certain "non-GAAP" financial measures. The components of these non-GAAP measures are computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables at the end of this press release. The company provides certain guidance solely on a non-GAAP basis because the company cannot predict certain elements that are included in certain reported GAAP results, including the variables and individual adjustments necessary for a reconciliation to GAAP. While management is not able to specifically quantify the reconciliation items for forward-looking non-GAAP measures without unreasonable effort, management bases the estimated ranges of non-GAAP measures for future periods on its reasonable estimates of such factors as assumed effective tax rate, assumed interest expense, and other assumptions about capital requirements for future periods. The variability of these items may have a significant impact on our future GAAP results.
We use adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS because we believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management believes adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are helpful in highlighting trends because they exclude the results of decisions that are outside the control of management, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, and capital investments. We use adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin to measure our financial performance and also to report our results to our board of directors. Further, our executive incentive compensation is based in part on adjusted EBITDA. In addition, we use adjusted EBITDA for purposes of calculating compliance with our debt covenants in certain of our debt facilities. adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance or to cash flows from operations as a liquidity measure.
We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted for the following items: loss from discontinued operations, net of tax; equity earnings of non-consolidated entities; income tax (benefit) expense; depreciation and amortization; interest expense, net; impairment and restructuring charges; gain on previously held shares of equity investment; (gain) loss on sale of property and equipment; share-based compensation expense; non-cash foreign exchange transaction/translation (income) loss; other non-cash items; other items; and costs related to debt restructuring and debt refinancing. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues.
We present several financial metrics in "core" terms, which exclude the impact of foreign exchange and acquisitions completed in the last twelve months. We use core adjusted EBITDA, which we define as adjusted EBITDA excluding the impact of foreign exchange and acquisitions completed in the last twelve months. We define core revenue as net revenue excluding the impact of foreign exchange and acquisitions completed in the last twelve months. Our use of core margin is defined as core adjusted EBITDA divided by core revenue. These "core" metrics assist management, investors, and analysts in understanding the organic performance of the operations.
We present free cash flow because we believe it assists investors and analysts in determining the quality of our earnings. We also use free cash flow to measure our financial performance and to report to our board of directors. In addition, our executive incentive compensation is based in part on free cash flow. We define free cash flow as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures (including purchases of intangible assets). Free cash flow should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operations as a liquidity measure. We also present net debt leverage because it is a key financial metric that is used by management to assess the balance sheet risk of the company. We define net debt leverage as net debt (total principal debt outstanding less unrestricted cash) divided by adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve month period.
Adjusted net income represents net income adjusted for certain items as presented in our reconciliation of non-GAAP, including the after-tax impact of i) non-cash foreign currency (gains) losses, ii) impairment and restructuring charges, iii) one-time non-cash gains, and iv) other non-recurring expenses associated with mergers and acquisitions and litigation. Adjusted EPS represents net income per diluted share adjusted to exclude the estimated per share impact of the same specifically identified items used to calculate adjusted net income as described above. Where applicable, such items are tax-effected at our estimated annual adjusted effective tax rate.
Other companies may compute these measures differently. Non-GAAP metrics should not be considered as alternatives to any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP.
Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this release may not sum precisely to the totals provided and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.

Meet the location scout helping Norfolk homeowners earn thousands
- Credit: Emma Chapman Photography/East Coast Locations
A Norfolk-based locations agency is expanding to help even more homeowners turn their properties into locations for some of the UK's biggest brands.
East Coast Locations is the sister company to Sandra Reynolds model agency and was founded in 2013 under the name Norfolk Production.
It later rebranded to East Coast Locations, and now works regularly with some of the UK’s biggest fashion and lifestyle brands, from Next, Joules and Boden to Denby, Radley and Parker Knoll - as well as local companies including Virgin Wines, Hopkins Homes and Cotswold Company.
The team manages an ever-growing library of locations for clients and offers production, photography and video services, as well as design and branding, and pairs commercial clients with locations and local crew and talent.
The team has recently moved into a new office on Westwick Street – the former home of Cookes Pianos – to accommodate its growth despite the pandemic.
“We were so busy throughout lockdown, which we just didn’t expect,” says location agent Rhiannon Bond. “Shoots were definitely tricky and I was worried to start with that it would stop all together, to be honest – but it didn’t. Being one of the industries that couldn’t work from home, we worked all the way through using very strict Covid protocols.
“Some clients chose to stay in London and do studio shoots but because we’ve got so much open space here in Norfolk, others wanted to travel out of the city and be in the open air. We have a lot of shoot and stay properties here so the crews were able to bubble together and stay in the house they were shooting at.”
As the business has grown, so has their client base and now their locations portfolio includes sites not only in Norfolk and Suffolk but throughout the UK, including London and the north. But Rhiannon says that one of their biggest “perks” is still their local knowledge, which often encourages some of the bigger brands to come – and then return – to Norfolk.
“When a client books a location with us we also organise the logistics for them, booking the best beaches and outdoor spaces as well as other locations that work for them and fit with their shoot schedule. For them that’s the value of what we do – we know the whole area and everything that we have here.
“We also offer full production, everything from crew and creatives to catering and shoot planning, which makes it easy for teams travelling here. When we bring clients to Norfolk it is nice because once they see what we have here, they usually always come back.”
Rhiannon’s role as a location agent includes scouting out new location properties and balancing the expectations of both the location owners and the clients.
She says the process usually works in one of two ways – either property owners contact the team with a location they think they might be interested in, or Rhiannon and her team scout them based on a client’s brief. “Sometimes I just drive past an amazing house and I just go and ask them if they’d be interested as a lot of people don’t know this exists or that it’s an option in Norfolk” she says.
But not every house makes an ideal location – even those which might fit the brief aesthetically.
“The house needs to be appropriate and right for all the things you need it for,” says Rhiannon. “Some people have amazing houses but they’re quite small or too dark or there’s no parking or something is a bit tricky, logistically, with them.”
Lots of people like the idea of it, Rhiannon says – particularly if they have spent a lot of money on a renovation and see it as a way to recoup the cost – but it is hard work. “You have to be really committed,” she says. “You can’t have family photos everywhere and fridge magnets. The house has to look aesthetically perfect all the time during shoots and recces.
“It can be long days, you have to be comfortable with lots of people being in your house and moving your furniture around. If a client has paid to use your house for the day they can’t have an owner running around after them, looking anxious every time they move anything – they need to be able to work freely and our location owners know they can always rely on us to ensure their house will be put back exactly as it was found by the end of the day.
“It can be really rewarding seeing your house used for shoots and obviously there’s the financial gain, but equally you have to be okay with what comes with that and a lot of people aren’t. Your house is a really personal space so I think a lot of the time, holiday lets and venues and event spaces are great because they’re built for that – but when it works, it’s really special.
"Some of our location owners are brilliant. They are so accommodating, so easy. It’s kind of a two-way thing: is your house right for us and is location work right for you? It’s about matching that up.”
Rhiannon says she visits every house she lists to get a feel for the space, although often clients will send her through floor plans and photographs to help her understand its layout. In lots of ways, it sounds like a similar process to buying a house: “Once you visit, you just see it so differently,” she says, and because client briefs can be both vague and super specific, she says it’s important the team know each location property inside out.

The standard rate for an eight-hour shoot is normally around £1,250, Rhiannon says, although it does vary. “Some of the stately homes go up to £5,000-£6,000 a day and then equally, if you want a little cottage and you want to use their kitchen for a couple of hours, that can be different, too.” East Coast Locations then take a commission of 20pc.
But when location owners, understandably, ask how many bookings they will get, how much money they will make or the size of the crew they will need to accommodate, Rhiannon says it’s difficult to know as every shoot is different. “It can be a crew of four people, up to a crew of 50. Every shoot works on a case-by-case basis.
“The most amazing houses that I think are going to get booked for absolutely everything we sometimes don’t get a booking for at all – and other houses like a cute little cottage gets booked every week. It’s so random. You can’t estimate how these things are going to go.
"Some of the houses that I find and I fall in love with just don’t get booked as a shoot location – it’s interesting to see how trends change and what brands are looking for from season to season.”
Often the choice of properties follows seasonal patterns – although these are often ahead by around six months. This means that when we speak in July, Rhiannon says many locations are being set up for Christmas. “It’s the hottest day of the year and you’re putting Christmas trees and fake snow out – it’s the weirdest job!”
The team services a wide range of clients and has a growing property portfolio to match, from traditional stately homes to lakeside cabins and modern feats of architecture to renovated barns.
They have recently launched a new website, which makes searching for a location even easier, and Rhiannon says she’s always on the lookout for new properties, too.
Like what? I ask.
“Anything coastal that is whitewashed with white floorboards and just lovely and airy and beachy. I think that’s one of the biggest things clients ask for – they want direct access to the beach so they can shoot in the house and then literally walk out onto the sand. I know that doesn’t come up very often, but if any readers do have something like this, get in touch…
“And anything amazingly architectural. I think anything like that is another reason to come to Norfolk – people already know that we have the beaches and the stately homes, so it’s having those really cool houses that brands or clients will want to travel for.”
But the biggest thing, she says, is a big Georgian home – as long as it’s not white. “I’m looking for something that’s got really high ceilings, all the traditional features like ceiling roses and big fireplaces, but minimal furniture. So if somebody lives in one of those, I’d love to hear from you.”

We’ve all probably glimpsed a few big-brand beauty names taking pride of place on the Love Island glam room shelves, but have you wondered which beauty products are loved the most by the Islanders? From the cleanser that’s been requested time and time again to the lip gloss that has been the favourite for the last few series, we’ve kindly been given all of the details by Boots, Love Island’s official beauty partner.
The number one product which has been a favourite among all Islanders is Soap & Glory Soap & Clarity Face Wash, £7.95 here. The 3-in-1 formula features biodegradable wax beads and removes makeup in a flash. Perfect for speedy take-off after a long evening of recoupling.
Second on the list is Boots Vitamin C Brightening Moisturising Cream, £4 here. This bargain cream features a punchy vitamin C formula to help to give skin a luminous glow, so it doesn’t surprise us that the girls have been using it as a base before applying makeup.
Third is another cleanser: Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser, £28 here – an iconic beauty buy that most of us will have tried at some point. Next comes Soltan Soothe & Moisturise Aftersun Lotion, £4 here – no surprise there as the Islanders probably feel frazzled after long days spent in the sun.
Finally, last but not least on the most-used list is Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Spot Wand, £5 here – a natural anti-inflammatory formula that works to shrink blemishes overnight.
Oh, and one more interesting stat from the Boots beauty team: 1,330 bottles of Soltan have been placed in the villa over the course of the last 12 weeks – that’s a lot of sun protection right there!
On the subject of in-villa beauty favourites, last year’s Love Island winner, and Boots ambassador, Millie Court says: “I’ve loved watching this series and catching up with Boots on all the beauty gossip. It’s no surprise my favourite lip gloss, the Fenty Gloss Bomb, is once again a favourite this year. It’s the perfect glossy finish to any makeup look.”
This new intel on villa favourites comes after Boots informed us of the effect Love Island has had on some of the products on the website. The cast has prompted several beauty items to spike in sales, showing just how much of an influence the show has on our spending.
Top sellers include 17. Créme Lip, just £2 here, which has seen a whopping +125% surge in sales since being stocked in the villa, 17. Eyeshadow Palette in Glitter, £5 here, and 17. Another Level Volume Mascara, £2 here, has seen an impressive increase of +70%.
With the final happening tonight, where will we get all of our bargain beauty recs from now on?

Last week, long before a Tiverton restaurant posted an appalling antisemitic meme to its Facebook page, I was in Krakow, Poland, meeting with Ukrainian refugees, and visiting organizations supporting their needs like the Jewish Community Center. The Auschwitz concentration camp stands just 60 miles from the Krakow JCC. It is where more than a million people, mostly Jews, were executed during the Holocaust. It is where Anne Frank and her family were sent after being discovered in Amsterdam.
In Warsaw, we saw memorial after memorial of those Jews who were concentrated in the Warsaw Ghetto, and who perished in the Ghetto Uprising in 1943. Seeing the few remaining walls of the ghetto, hearing how glass and barbed wire were placed on top of the tall brick so that Jews could not escape, was a reminder of the brutality Jews and others faced at the hands of the Nazis. It is also a reminder that the brutality was not the beginning of antisemitic treatment in Europe. The Holocaust did not begin with the extermination of Jews. It began with prejudice. It began with mistreatment. And it began because too many good people looked the other way as the Nazis enacted laws institutionalizing harsh treatment of Jews and other minority groups.

The Jewish people have a saying about the Holocaust. Never forget. As Rhode Islanders, we must never forget what happened in World War II, and we must never allow history to repeat itself. We must learn the lessons from the Holocaust and avoid looking the other way when any minority group is targeted. Sadly, and alarmingly, I worry we are forgetting these lessons.
Over the last several years, the number of antisemitic incidents in Rhode Island has risen steadily, and in the last few months, incidents are even more frequent. It was good to see the public outcry surrounding the restaurant’s post, and good to see that the restaurant did apologize. However, it is time for all of us to take seriously the threat of antisemitism to our state’s founding ideals and principles, and it is time for all of us to act against this intolerance.
Advertisement
Over the last several months, Rhode Island has seen neo-Nazis in Providence. We have seen racist and antisemitic leafleting by the same white nationalist organization in East Providence and Cranston. We have seen stickers placed throughout our state with antisemitic language. And we have heard from more and more Jewish community members sharing stories of verbal abuse and harassment directed at them because they are Jewish.
Antisemitic incidents reached an all-time high in the United States in 2021, with a total of 2,717 incidents of assault, harassment and vandalism reported to the Anti-Defamation League. This represents the highest number of incidents on record since ADL began tracking antisemitic incidents in 1979 — an average of more than seven incidents per day and a 34 percent increase year over year.
These incidents no longer represent the work of isolated bad actors. They are part of an alarming pattern, one that we must reverse, especially in Rhode Island. Our state was founded on the principle of religious freedom. The country’s oldest synagogue, Touro Synagogue, stands in Newport, and Rhode Island has always been a place where the Jewish community has not only been able to survive, but thrive. We can no longer be silent about this.

Everyone in our state has a role to play in fighting antisemitism and hatred in all forms. First, people can educate themselves about the long history of antisemitism and the Holocaust. The Jewish Alliance of Greater Rhode Island has a wealth of resources to help those looking for information and the Sandra Bornstein Holocaust Education Center is an invaluable resource for information about the Holocaust. Education is only a first step, however. Share what you learn with others, through social media and through conversations with family and friends. You can also share posts from the Jewish community on your social media to further the education of others.
Finally, like so many did last week, stand up and speak out against antisemitism when you see it. We must make clear that our state does not tolerate antisemitism in any form. And if you see an incident, report it. In Rhode Island, you can report an incident to the Jewish Alliance.
In George Washington’s 1790 letter to the Hebrew Congregation of Newport, he said “Everyone shall sit in safety under his own vine and fig tree, and there shall be none to make him afraid.” We all must work together to make sure that 232 years later, Rhode Islanders continue to live up to those ideals.
Adam Greenman is the president and CEO of the Jewish Alliance of Greater Rhode Island.

PRISTINA, Kosovo (AP) — Kosovo’s authorities early Monday moved to ease mounting ethnic tensions in the country by delaying a controversial order on vehicle license plates and identity cards that triggered riots by minority Serbs who put up roadblocks, sounded air raid sirens and fired their guns into the air.
The Kosovo government accused neighboring Serbia of instigating the riots in order to destabilize the country that declared independence in 2008 after a NATO intervention that stopped Serbia’s bloody crackdown against ethnic Albanian separatists in 1999.
Officials in Kosovo had earlier decided that as of Aug. 1 they would resume the practice of requiring vehicles that enter from Serbia to replace Serbia license plates with Kosovo ones. For the past 11 years, the reverse was required by Serbia for vehicles driving from Kosovo that transit through Serbia.
Kosovo also is planning to block its ethnic Serb minority from using only the Serbian identity cards when crossing the border.
After discussions with European and U.S. partners, the “reciprocity” license plate and identity card plan was being postponed for a month, until Sept. 1, the Kosovo government said.
EU Foreign Policy chief Josep Borrell said he welcomed the move, adding that he expected all roadblocks “to be removed immediately.”
A Kosovo government statement said that many “aggressive acts” like blocking roads and shot-firing in the northern areas dominated by ethnic Serbs took place on Sunday and accused Serbia of inciting them.
Kosovo was part of Serbia until an armed uprising in 1998-1999 by the territory’s ethnic Albanian majority triggered a bloody crackdown by Serbs. A NATO bombing campaign to force Serbia’s troops out of Kosovo ended the war. But Serbia refuses to recognize Kosovo’s 2008 declaration of independence.
Prime Minister Albin Kurti and President Vjosa Osmani blamed Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic for the latest protests.
“Vucic and (Petar) Petkovic are the main responsible persons for the riots,” Kurti wrote in Facebook. Petkovic is Belgrade’s official in charge of Kosovo.
Osmani also wrote on Facebook that “Vucic’s efforts to destabilize Kosovo” would fail.
Vucic responded by saying that “we’ve never been in a more complex situation than today” and blamed Kosovo for the escalating tensions over the licenses plates and ID cards.
He accused Kosovo of trying to make itself the victim and “taking advantage of the mood in the world where they think they can play cards,” he said, adding that Kurti is trying to be seen in the same light as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Vucic said Kosovo cannot stop its ethnic Serbs from using Serbian identity cards when they cross the border. He later visited Serbian Army headquarters in Belgrade in what was seen as a thinly veiled warning that all options – including military action – were on the table.
Serbian ally Russia denounced the Kosovo government, saying the latest measures were intended to chase the remaining Serbs out of Kosovo. There are fears in the West that Russia could use Serbia to destabilize the Balkans and thus shift at least some attention from its war in Ukraine.
The NATO-led peacekeeping mission in Kosovo said it was monitoring the “tense” situation in northern Kosovo and was “prepared to intervene if stability is jeopardized.”
The force said it would “take whatever measures are necessary to keep a safe and secure environment in Kosovo at all times, in line with its UN mandate.”
The mission, which has some 3,800 soldiers from 28 countries, is led by NATO but is supported by the United Nations, the European Union and others.

SOMERSET, Wis. (AP) — A Minnesota teenager died and four other people were seriously hurt after being stabbed while tubing down a Wisconsin river, authorities said.
St. Croix County Sheriff Scott Knudson the victims and suspect, a 52-year-old Prior Lake, Minnesota man, were all on the Apple River when the attack happened Saturday afternoon. Knudson said investigators were working to determine what led to the stabbings and whether the victims and suspect knew each other. They were tubing with two different groups that included about 20 people.
“We don’t know yet who was connected to who, who knew each other or what precipitated it,” Knudson said.
The knife attack happened on a difficult-to-access section of the river near the town of Somerset, Wisconsin, which is about 35 miles (56 kilometers) east of Minneapolis. The suspect was arrested about an hour and a half later while getting off the river downstream.
“Thank goodness a witness had taken a photo of him,” Knudson told the Minneapolis Star Tribune. “Another witness located him at the exit of the tubing area, where he was taken into custody.”
A 17-year-old boy from Stillwater, Minnesota, died. Two of the other victims were flown to a hospital in St. Paul, Minnesota, and two others were taken there by ambulance. The sheriff’s office said Sunday that the condition of all four surviving victims — a woman and three men in their 20s — ranged from serious to critical. They suffered stab wounds to their chests and torsos.
The sheriff’s office didn’t name the victims, but did provide a few details about them. The victims included a 20-year-old man and a 22-year-old man from Luck, Wisconsin; a 22-year-old man from Elk River, Minnesota; and a 24-year-old woman from Burnsville, Minnesota;
The name of the suspect wasn’t immediately released, but St. Croix County jail records show a 52-year-old man was being held without bond on suspicion of first-degree homicide, four counts of aggravated battery and four counts of mayhem. | https://cbs4indy.com/news/national-world/17-year-old-killed-4-hurt-in-stabbings-on-wisconsin-river/ | 2022-08-01T10:42:16Z | https://cbs4indy.com/news/national-world/17-year-old-killed-4-hurt-in-stabbings-on-wisconsin-river/ | false |

PARIS, FRANKFORT and MONTRÉAL, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Following a competitive auction process, Akiem shareholders have agreed to enter into exclusive negotiations with CDPQ on the proposed sale of Akiem, a leading provider of freight locomotive leasing services in France and Europe.
With revenues of nearly EUR 220 million, EBITDA of around EUR 150 million in 2021, a fleet of over 600 locomotives, 46 passenger trains and some 250 employees, Akiem is a European leader in locomotive leasing and maintenance. Headquartered in France with 7 international offices, Akiem provides local expertise to over 80 customers in 21 countries. The company has the largest fleet on the continent, of which 75% is electric, a share that is expected to increase in the coming years.
CDPQ's offer is subject to the customary consultation with employee representative bodies within the SNCF Group and Akiem. In addition, this transaction is subject to the approvals of certain competition authorities.
Emmanuel Jaclot, Executive Vice President and Head of Infrastructure at CDPQ, states: "CDPQ is thrilled to acquire Akiem, a major European player in the rail sector, and is looking forward to working with its team to bring the company to the next stage of its growth. Akiem's size and positioning across the entire value chain, including maintenance, give it a significant competitive edge to benefit from the expected growth in the locomotive leasing market across Europe. With three quarters of its fleet already operating on electricity, Akiem offers a sustainable response to the challenges of decarbonizing transport – a solution that appealed to us from the start."
Laurent Trevisani, Deputy CEO Financial Strategy, SNCF Group, adds: "This plan to sell Akiem is fully in line with SNCF Group's strategy to become a global leader in sustainable mobility for people and merchandise, with the rail industry as a core business and two strategic assets: GEODIS and KEOLIS. Once the definitive agreements are concluded, this transaction will provide financing for our core activities and the Group's future growth while accelerating debt reduction. It also provides Akiem with the backing of a long-term partner and ensures the continued operations of this company, which will remain a business partner of SNCF. We would like to thank the Akiem teams for their involvement over the past few years and will continue to support them in the various stages of this project."
Hamish Mackenzie, Head of Infrastructure at DWS, says: "Since becoming a shareholder of Akiem in 2016, DWS has supported management's strategic growth ambitions through its active asset management approach combined with the rail expertise of its partner, SNCF. Akiem's success during our investment reflects the quality of its management team and their unrivalled track record in the European locomotive leasing market, as well as the quality of our long-term partnership with SNCF. We wish Akiem and its teams every success in this project."
Fabien Rochefort, CEO, Akiem group, affirms: "This acquisition is a new step following a very successful collaboration between Akiem and its shareholders, SNCF and DWS. We are delighted with CDPQ's commitment, which will allow Akiem to continue investing in support of its long-term growth in the European locomotive and passenger train leasing markets. As rail operators face rising demand for more environmentally friendly transportation in a complex environment, Akiem is providing its customers with rolling stock that is sustainable, solid and reliable. We intend to continue innovating and developing our operational and industrial expertise to benefit our customers."
SNCF is a global leader in passenger and freight transport services, including management of the French rail network, with revenue of EUR 34.8 billion in 2021, of which one third on international markets. The Group does business in 120 countries and has 270,000 employees, with 208,000 in France and over half in its core rail business. The new Group, a public limited company that began operating on January 1, 2020, consists of a parent (SNCF) and five subsidiaries: SNCF Réseau (management, operation and maintenance of the French rail network, plus railway engineering) with its own subsidiary SNCF Gares & Connexions (station management and development); SNCF Voyageurs (Transilien, TER and Intercités; INOUI, OUIGO, Eurostar, Thalys, Alleo, Lyria and distribution with SNCF Connect); Keolis (a French and global operator of urban, suburban and regional mass transit systems); RAIL LOGISTICS EUROPE (rail freight); and Geodis (freight transport and logistics solutions).

From Casa Amor betrayals to shock walk-outs and thousands of Ofcom complaints about 'bullying': As the 2022 Love Island final looms, MailOnline takes a look at the most dramatic moments of the series
The Love Island 2022 final is set to take place on Monday night at 9pm on ITV2 - and while it's been a ratings hit - with 5m viewers tuning in to the saucy show's opening episode, the series has been marred with controversy.
With thousands of Ofcom complaints registered about alleged 'bullying and misogyny' from the male Islanders towards the female cast, ITV boss Kevin Lygo has been forced to confirm the broadcaster will 'sit down and review' the show when the series ends.
It's not clear whether or not the UK's media regulator will investigate the complaints.
Viewers were stunned by Luca Bish, 24, and Dami Hope's treatment of Tasha Ghouri, 23, when they believed her to not be genuine, and at Luca for losing his temper at his partner Gemma Owen, 19, for supposedly flirting with Billy Brown, 23 while in Casa Amor.
Then Gemma gave him what for when he reacted badly to her licking 26-year-old Adam Collard's chest during a sexy challenge - with viewers calling out his behaviour.
However, it's fair to say there have been plenty of incredible moments in the villa, such as the the reunion of show favourites, Ekin-Su and Davide after a brief split, which saw her crawl on the terrace to kiss new bombshell Jay Younger, 28, with Davide finding out and calling her 'faker than a Louis Vuitton from China'.
Then there was the moment when Indiyah Polack, 23, kept mistakenly calling Dami by the name of love rival, Deji Adeniyi, 29 - her mother came on the show and DID THE SAME THING causing viewers to howl with laughter.
Monday night will see couples, Gemma and Luca, Ekin-Su and Davide, Tasha and Andrew and Dami and Indiyah all battling it out to be crowned your Love Island winners - so let's look at the series' most dramatic and controversial moments.
EKIN-WHO?
Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, 27, really came into her own when bombshell Nathalia Campos, 23, brutally called the Turkish soap-star ‘Ekin-Who?' during a heated row.
Things got particularly tense one evening when Ekin-Su asked Nathalia - who had her eyes on Davide Saclimenti, also 27: ‘You alright? Have you got an issue with me? It feels like you’ve got an issue with me.’
While Nathalia insisted she didn’t, Ekin-Su said: ‘Do you know what I’ve learnt my love, the best way to end an argument is cooking. You can prove to me with your pancakes my love, to see how good you are.’
Ekin-Who? Ekin Cülcüloğlu, 27, really came into her own when bombshell Nathalia Campos, 23, brutally called the Turkish soap-star ‘Ekin-Who?' during a heated row
Nathalia said: ‘I don’t need to prove anything babe, honestly who are you for me to prove anything?’
Nathalia said: ‘I don’t need to prove anything babe, honestly who are you for me to prove anything?’
Ekin-Su sassily answered back: ‘I am Ekin-Su babe and there’s only one of me.‘
Nathalia responded: ‘Who is that to me? Who is that to me though, Ekin-who…?’
Deji later revealed what really happened next, which wasn't aired on the show - and that was that Ekin-Su replied: 'Ekin-your mum.'
He said it was his funniest moment of the series and was unable to stop laughing as he recalled the moment.
'I LICKED A T*T... OR WHATEVER'
Love Island fans are saying this is the funniest moment in the show's history when Andrew Le Page, 26, had to admit to his original partner Tasha that he didn’t just kiss Coco Lodge, 27, in Casa Amor, like she thought was the case.
He started off by saying that he 'sucked her t*t, or whatever', before changing his story to ‘licked her t*t, or whatever’.
The sentence went viral, with images of cakes with the words: 'I licked a t*t' emblazoned on them which appeared on lots of viewers' Instagram Stories.

LIAM LEAVES THE VILLA FOR MENTAL HEALTH REASONS
The Welsh student, 23, quit the show after just six days in the villa at the start of the series, saying he underestimated how being filmed 24/7 would impact him mentally, knowing his every move was being watched and edited unfavourably.
Liam said: 'I thought I was going to have the summer that everyone dreams of but now I'm living with no regrets, I took a chance but I realised I can't live on TV.
'I was expected to do things for a TV show and I couldn't be myself. I didn't want to do it. It is a TV show and it is produced. It's not all natural.
'My head was miles away': Liam Llewellyn quit the villa after six days and has opened up for the first time about the 'out of body experience' he felt during his brief time on the series
'In my head I was not in the right position to take part in a TV show because that's what you're doing. You have to go on dates, do challenges, and you're not in control of any of it.
'On my dates they asked me to repeat things because it didn't quite come through.
'I had loads of meetings with the execs, the series editor, and professional physiologists but after a couple of days of feeling the way I did, I made the decision on my own behalf that it wasn't right for me to carry on.'
Liam was coupled up with Gemma courtesy of a viewer's vote but they were only together for a matter of days.
MEET THE PARENTS
While the Islanders broke down in tears when their family members arrived in the villa after eight weeks of not seeing them, there were some notable moments.
Who could forget the savagery of Paige's parents when her mother told her: 'I'm not buying it' when it comes to her romance with Adam, before her dad said: 'I haven't watched the show.'
Adam burst into tears upon seeing his parents and said he had genuine feelings for Paige after coming into the villa as a last minute bombshell in order to ruffle feathers.
Oops! Fans were left in stitches when Indiyah Polack's mum Dee called Dami, Deji, while giving him the third degree about his Casa Amor three-way kiss
Embarrassed: An embarrassed Indiyah, 23, later told the Beach Hut: 'Like mother, like daughter...when she did that...I literally just wanted the floor to swallow me up' - she called Dami Deji twice, too!
Gemma - who said she would not become Luca's girlfriend until she got her parents' approval was delighted when her mother Louise said she was happy for them.
Davide's mother was so emotional, she caused her son to break down in tears, telling her son that she could see he was in love with Ekin-Su.
Indiyah's mother gave Dami a good old talking to for his three-way kiss in Casa Amor and when he apologised, she said: 'What are you sorry for?' before accidentally calling him Deji.
Spoiler alert: Gemma Owen's mum Louise gave Luca her approval when she appeared on the show
Dami's family were unable to attend due to Covid but chatted to him and Indiyah over Zoom, asking him what on earth he was thinking by kissing other girls in Casa Amor while he was coupled up with Indiyah.
Luca's mother stole the show in a silver lamé dress and told Luca that he had overreacted in the show at times but would talk to him about it when he was out of the villa.
And Tasha's dad won hearts after telling his daughter how proud he is of her and that he supports her romance with Andrew. Tarek has become a bit of a social media sensation for all his loving tweets about his daughter.
JACQUES LEAVES VILLA AND CALLS SHOW 'WORST MISTAKE OF HIS LIFE'
The hunk, 23, sensationally quit the show a fortnight ago over fears he'd lose control but claims bosses tried to make him stay.
The reality personality decided to remove himself following the arrival of Adam Collard, 26, as he declared: 'Love Island was the worst decision of my life.'
Jacques was rattled by the arrival of former contestant Adam, who set his sights on the rugby player's partner Paige Thorne, 24, before telling his fellow Islanders that the sportsman was 'immature.'
Adam, who was known for his womanising ways, made a shock comeback to the ITV2 show after originally appearing in series four in 2018.
Gemma's ex, Jacques, said he'd reached breaking point after Adam's arrival, telling The Sun: 'I thought if I don't get myself out things could go horribly wrong and I could get physical.'
Walking out: Jacques broke down in floods of tears when he left the show over fears he'd lose control - and claims it was the 'worst mistake of his life' going on there
Jacques said he removed his microphone and walked out the front doors of the villa before producers intercepted, prompting him to demand to be left alone.
While viewers learned the television personality had left the villa on the Tuesday, he had in fact departed on the Sunday.
He claims he'd been gone a day before bosses coaxed him back when he had a 'welfare chat' about his situation.
Jacques insisted he 'couldn't deal with it' any longer and was in tears, saying he wanted to return to the UK.
He added: 'It broke me and I was already broken. I was crying my eyes out. I couldn't cope. I was literally feeling awful. It was the worst I'd ever felt in my life.'
Jacques' family revealed during his time in the villa that he had been diagnosed with ADHD at the age of nine and sometimes struggled to deal with emotional situations.
'YOU'RE A LIAR, AN ACTRESS, GO THE F**K OUT!'
They have become the 1/8 odds-on favourites to win Love Island - but Davide and Ekin-Su's journey to love hasn't been a smooth one.
Right at the start, Ekin-Su turned her back on the Italian Stallion and made a play for bombshell Jay Younger, crawling on the terrace to give him a secret kiss.
Davide found out and he and Ekin-Su had a fiery bust-up of words after he told her 'you're an actress, a liar, go the f**k out'.
Love: They have become the 1/8 odds-on favourites to win Love Island - but Davide and Ekin-Su's journey to love hasn't been a smooth one - he was rattled when she kissed Jay Younger and called her 'faker than a Louis Vuitton from China
Can you see her? Right at the start, Ekin-Su turned her back on the Italian Stallion and made a play for bombshell Jay Younger, crawling on the terrace to give him a secret kiss
They soon reunited but when she was captivated by Adam, he was a little rattled by his arrival and called her a 'player', then shouted across the villa that she's 'as fake as the Louis Vuitton from China'.
However, Ekin-Su has since won Davide's trust and the pair have said they are 'head over heels in love for one another', with Ekin-Su breaking down in tears at the thought of bringing their future children back to the villa to show them where their parents met and fell in love.
A CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY
Indiyah Polack has more than once mixed-up her Love Island beau Dami Hope's name with bombshell Deji Adeniyi's.
And it would seem that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree as her mother made the same error during Sunday night's Meet the Parents episode.
Fans were left in stitches when Indiyah's mum Dee made the slip-up as she grilled the 26-year-old Dublin native on his Casa Amor actions.
She began with 'Deji, so' before realising her mistake.
Again? Hotel waitress Indiyah accidentally called her couple partner Deji on two separate occasions
A howling Dami exclaimed 'Deji?!' as Indiyah's sister Shak scolded her mum.
'Why?!' Dami yelled as he laughed, later concluding 'my name's Dami though'.
An embarrassed Indiyah, 23, later told the Beach Hut: 'Like mother, like daughter...when she did that...I literally just wanted the floor to swallow me up.'
Earlier episodes saw the hotel waitress accidentally call her couple partner Dami by Deji's name on two separate occasions.
The first time it happened, as she walked in the kitchen to chat with Gemma Owen and Danica Taylor, the stunner approached Dami and called him by the wrong name.
In the doghouse: The second slip-up took place when the pair were cuddled up in bed after a dramatic evening which saw four new bombshells enter the villa
The second slip-up took place when the pair were cuddled up in bed after a dramatic evening which saw four new bombshells enter the villa.
Referencing new girl Nathalia Campos' quip at Dami's decision to recouple with Summer Botwe during Casa Amor, Indiyah whispered: 'She was like "oh poor Summer".
'If you felt that way with Summer, Deji - not Deji.'
'I'm actually irritated, this is getting a bit too much now,' the Dublin-native replied.
DAMI'S FUMING FACE WHEN INDIYAH CAME BACK FROM CASA AMOR
They might be in love with one another now but Dami and Indiyah were nearly no more after his feelings for her were seriously tested in Casa Amor.
His head was turned by Summer and Dami was the third boy to choose in the recoupling, with host Laura Whitmore questioning whether he'd like to 'stick or twist'.
And after getting to know new girl Summer Botwe during Casa Amor, Dami admitted he'd like to recouple, even making a pun as he said 'Summer isn't over yet'.
He told Laura: 'Me being true to myself and I feel this Love Island experience is about exploring connections... and Summer isn't over yet,' before announcing his decision to recouple.
Despite himself choosing a new girl, Dami couldn't hide his shock as Indiyah returned to the villa moments later with Deji Adeniyi on her arm.
Shocked: Dami looked furious when Indiyah returned to the villa with Deji after Casa Amor - even though he recoupled with Summer
Indiyah said: 'May the best heartbreaker win' in response to Dami's words
'I did have a connection but I thought that I needed to follow my head and I'm glad that I did, everything happens for a reason you know, it is what it is' she said, while a visibly upset Dami cut in saying ''till it isn't'.
As Indiyah rolled her eyes at the comment, Laura questioned if Dami had anything to say to her, to which he replied that he is happy for her - but for himself too, while making a fed up facial expression.
Not buying the comments, Indiyah replied 'seems it', before saying she is 'absolutely' happy when questioned by him.
As the other islanders awkwardly shuffled in their chairs, Laura wasn't stopping there - asking Indiyah if she expected Dami to be sitting with someone else.
'Do you know what? Expect the unexpected, I see his true colours now, do you know what I mean?', said Indiyah.
While Dami chimed in saying 'We're heartbreakers so here we are', as Indiyah concluded the tense face off with: 'May the best heartbreaker win'.
THE TALENT SHOW
Indiyah Polack left her fellow islanders and the viewers in stitches with her talent show performance on Monday's episode of Love Island.
The hotel waitress, 23, set social media alight when she attempted to play the recorder for her talent - with hilarious results.
The beauty performed a rendition of Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star but ended up playing much of the track out of tune.
The other islanders quickly tried to muffle their laughter, with Tasha Ghouri even covering Andrew Le Page's mouth.
Indiyah herself started to crack up during the performance and quickly knelt down behind her notes so she couldn't see her fellow islanders' faces.
Hilarious: Indiyah left her fellow islanders and the viewers in stitches with her talent show performance as she tried and faield to play the recorder
In stitches: The other islanders quickly tried to muffle their laughter, with Tasha even covering Andrew's mouth
Viewers quickly took to Twitter to react to the hilarious moment, with one saying: 'Why is Indiyah playing the recorder so funny to me?'
Another said: 'Indiyah on the recorder had me rolling and it's the way Ekin-Su was being so serious telling Danica to stop laughing'.
Another viewer wrote: 'Indiyah babe, guys I've never laughed harder at an episode.'
Some fans likened Indiyah's performance to Millie Court's in the series seven talent show, where she struggled with her keyboard.
The official Love Island twitter account photoshopped Indiyah and Millie into the same snap and wrote: 'We know someone who could have helped Indiyah'.
CHALLENGE - SNOG, MARRY, PIE
Complaints: 1509 for misogyny and bullying
Islanders were tasked with selecting someone to snog and 'marry', by placing a ring on someone's finger and ditch, by throwing a custard pie in that person's face.
The challenge appears on the show each year and while it's meant to be playful in tone, Islanders have to give a reason as to why they select someone for each action.
It seems viewers were upset about how dancer and model Tasha was treated when she was pied three times - with some calling the boys' behaviour 'bullying'.
Tasha had three pies thrown in her face, by Davide , 26, microbiologist Dami and fishmonger Luca after they had accused her of not having good intentions towards Andrew - who she was coupled up with.
The general consensus was that Tasha did not like Andrew as much as he likes her and that she was stringing him along.
Tasha was the left in tears after the boys pushed the pies into her face during the supposedly light hearted game, with fellow Islanders later agreeing things went 'too far'.
Upset: Love Island received over 1,500 Ofcom complaints about 'misogynistic behaviour and bullying' after the Snog, Marry, Pie challenge which saw Tasha (pictured) get pied three times
Davide, who is coupled up with actress Ekin-Su had said his reasons for doing so was because she called him and his partner the fakest couple.
Dami, coupled up with Indiyah confessed he pied Tasha because she usually 'gets away with a lot of stuff' after openly criticising her in the villa.
And Luca, coupled up with Gemma told her: 'I could give you a list, [of reasons] but I'll let it go for today. It's just a game.'
Snog, marry, pie: Viewers' complaints have been registered but it is not clear yet whether or not Ofcom will investigate
On top of fans using the word 'bullying, Love Island alum Amber Gill wrote on social media: 'Gosh I hope Tasha is OK. These boys are basically bullying her at this point.'
Gemma's mother Louise Owen also criticised Luca and Dami's behaviour towards Tasha, saying it was 'close to bullying'.
Luca and Dami received harsh criticism from viewers for the way they have treated Tasha in recent days and Luca's family members have now said they have been left 'broken' over the awful comments they have received about him.
Louise commented on an Instagram clip of the moment Tasha asked Andrew to be her boyfriend and wrote: 'I hope Tasha is ok, I feel it's close to bullying now which is so sad to see'.
Moreover: Billy Brown's sister was forced to defend him on social media after he came under fire over his treatment of Danica Taylor during the challenge
Tough: The roofer, 23, was slammed by fans of the ITV show who were 'disgusted' after he laughed and called subsequent showdown 'mental' while Danica Taylor voiced her feelings
Later in the show, the two men apologised to Tasha with Brighton based fishmonger Luca admitting he was 'out of line'.
He said: 'I do actually genuinely feel bad right now for what I said and I'm sorry'. Luca said.
Echoing his words Dami agreed saying: 'I do support you and Andrew and obviously we have our opinions about everything that happened'.
He continued: 'I have said to you I thought you always get away with everything so I just thought it would be funny to say 'you always get away with everything well you're not getting away with this pie'.
Before adding: 'I don't want it to be like I'm ganging up on you. I actually want us to be friends.'
Tasha hugged both men and they agreed to draw a line under the situation, however fans were left unconvinced the apologies was genuine, believing that viewers may have put them up to it.
Speaking out: Gemma Owen's mother Louise has criticised Luca Bish and Dami Hope's behaviour towards Tasha on Love Island, saying it is 'close to bullying'
Moreover, Billy Brown's sister was forced to defend him on social media after he came under fire from viewers over his treatment of Danica Taylor, during the Snog, Marry, Pie challenge and branded the Love Island villa a 'mad toxic place'.
The now eliminated roofer, 23, was slammed by fans of the ITV show who were 'disgusted' after he laughed and called their recent showdown 'mental' while Danica voiced her feelings.
He also received backlash after he upset Danica by ignoring her during the challenge and later dumped the dancer saying they had no 'spark'.
Despite being his love interest at the time, Billy refused to either kiss or propose to Danica during the challenge.
Instead the roofing company director chose to snog Gemma, who he has previously been accused of flirting with, and marry Paige Thorne, 24, labelling his actions 'banter.'
Danica was left fuming, saying: 'I'm not having this,' and later cried to the other girls about how she was having such bad luck in the villa.
Later Billy said: 'It's just banter, I'm sick of this s**t.'
Arguments: Viewers also expressed concern for Luca's treatment of his love interest Gemma Owen after Movie Night at the time the episode aired
On top of this, Dami chose to kiss his Casa Amor ex Summer Botwe, 22, to the shock of Indiyah.
He then tried to marry Indiyah but she was having none of it and threw the ring off the hill.
MailOnline has contacted a spokesperson for Love Island for comment.
CHALLENGE: MOVIE NIGHT
Complaints: 2481 for misogynistic and controlling behaviour
Fans were delighted when Love Island brought back the Movie Night challenge which sees both the girls watch clips of their partners during their time in Casa Amor.
Halfway through the show, the girls were packed off to another villa, dubbed Casa Amor, where they spend a few days with a whole new group of boys.
The boys remained in the original villa with a new group of girls and at the end to see if they remain faithful to their partners or couple up with someone else.
At the end, the girls returned to the villa either with a new partner, or choosing to stick with who they were with originally.
Likewise, the boys decided whether or not to do the same. The episode inevitably brings heartache or tension when people stay true to their partners, only to discover they want to couple up with someone else.
During movie night, Luca watched a clip of Gemma allegedly flirting with Billy Brown, 23, in Casa Amor, Tasha also kissed Billy and coupled up with him and Andrew got intimate with Coco Lodge, 27, out of anger, after the new girls told him Tasha did not have good intentions towards him.
Coco later said Andrew's behaviour made her feel 'used' after he brought her back to the villa and dumped her for Tasha.
Figures released by Ofcom showed that 2481 viewers alone complained about 'alleged misogynistic behaviour by some of the male contestants' during the July 17 episode.
Tasha was once again of the main targets during both Movie Night and the dares game after Luca and Dami repeatedly criticised her behaviour during her relationship with Andrew.
After the boys clubbed together and cheered on their Casa Amor antics during Movie Night, despite the girls' upset, the male islanders also came under fire for their behaviour during a game of dares.
Taking part in a game of 'Suck and Blow', tensions rose as the game led to Andrew coming to blows with close friends Luca and Dami.
Dami was asked to rub the feet of the islander who has been walked over most in the villa and he went for Andrew - once again making his feelings clear on Tasha.
Luca was asked to choose the Islander 'riding on their partners coattails', he picked Tasha and explained that he thought she's the one most with her partner in order to win.
Dami echoed this and said 'you know what you need to do'.
Viewers also expressed concern for Luca's treatment of his love interest Gemma Owen after Movie Night with his heated outburst.
In reaction, Luca lost his temper and said to the boys: 'You were f***ing flirting! And I was made out to look like an idiot for it.
'I can't stand liars mate. If you wanna flirt then I'll flirt, Get me a bombshell in here now. I have been made to look like a f***ing mug. I am bringing that up with her 100%.'
It has been revealed that Luca's Twitter account has been deleted amid the backlash to his behaviour on the show.
During a search for the star the page that comes up reads: 'This account doesn't exist', despite him previously using the platform.
It is not clear if his family were the ones to delete the account or if it was removed.
Luca's family took to Instagram Stories on his account at the time to say they don't condone his behaviour towards partner Gemma.
Fans had called for Gemma to break off her relationship with the fishmonger, after he raged at her for 'flirting' with Billy on Sunday night's show.
And his family have said that while he would be 'embarrassed' by his actions and will no doubt apologise, he doesn't deserve the abuse he has been getting.
They say his behaviour is not reflective of the boy they 'know and love at home' but noted that his Love Island experience is an intense one.
Earlier in the week 167 viewers complained about the first installment of Movie Night, when footage was shown of Ekin-Su in bed with George during Casa Amor.
Davide branded Ekin-Su a liar after the clip was shown, after she claimed 'nothing happened.'
Love Island's spin-off show - Aftersun
Complaints: 427 for Jacques O'Neil's treatment during his interview and the panellists' discussion about Ekin-Su
Aftersun sparked 427 complaints to Ofcom a fortnight ago, citing the 'slut-shaming' of Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and the treatment of Jacques O'Neill in his interview.
Host Laura Whitmore and Aftersun producers came under fire on social media for comments the guests made about Ekin-Su and George Tasker's flirtations in Casa Amor - after Ekin-Su denied she had been intimate with him.
Laura said: 'Once again Ekin-Su swore that nothing happened with George and it seems Davide doesn't believe her.'
As Laura burst into laughter, panellist Tom Grennan exclaimed: 'It deffo happened though didn't it?'
Fellow panellist Darren Harriott continued: 'She said her head never turned but I think her hand might have turned, and possibly wrist.'
Instead of shutting down the comments, some viewers were disappointed to see Laura continuing the conversation, turning to Sian Welby to ask her opinion.
This angered fans who argued that the guests were 'slut shaming' Ekin-Su and passing it off as 'banter', with Laura receiving criticism for 'encouraging' the comments.
One viewer tweeted: 'It's shameful that a national network has so little awareness, and is normalising sexism. Aftersun especially was a disgrace tonight.'
And the handling of Jacques - who has openly spoken about quitting the series to protect his mental health - on the show was also criticised after he was shown videos of his ex-partner paramedic Paige Thorne kissing personal trainer Adam Collard after his depature.
Some called the interview with Jacques 'cruel', saying that forcing him to watch clips of Paige and Adam was dangerous for his mental health after the ex-Islander said he had not been able to watch the show.
But several made it known that they intended to complain to Ofcom about the misogynistic comments and interview with Jacques.
A spokesperson for Love Island said in a statement to MailOnline: 'Laura is the presenter of the show, and part of that role is to pose questions to the panel and discuss events in the Villa.
'We do not condone trolling against either our host or our Islanders and any subsequent elevation of these comments.
'We had various measures in place to ensure Jacques' welfare was prioritised at all times ahead of and during his appearance on Aftersun.
'This included a full briefing with show producers to outline the show's content and likely questioning, a conversation with Laura before and after the show was recorded, and chaperoning from both a welfare producer and a member of his family while he was in studio.
'Should an Islander not wish to participate in the Aftersun recording, we would always respect that decision.'
A spokesperson for Laura Whitmore told MailOnline: 'Laura's job as the presenter of Aftersun is to ask questions relating to what is happening in the main show.
'This is all that Laura has done on this occasion and suggesting otherwise is simply unfair and false.'
In response to the complaints about Aftersun and Laura Whitmore and the panellists' discussion about Ekin-Su and the interview with Jacques, ITV stated:
'Laura is the presenter of the show, and part of that role is to pose questions to the panel and discuss events in the Villa.'
'We do not condone trolling against either our host or our Islanders and any subsequent elevation of these comments.
'We had various measures in place to ensure Jacques' welfare was prioritised at all times ahead of and during his appearance on Aftersun.'
'This included a full briefing with show producers to outline the show's content and likely questioning, a conversation with Laura before and after the show was recorded, and chaperoning from both a welfare producer and a member of his family while he was in studio.
'Should an Islander not wish to participate in the Aftersun recording, we would always respect that decision.'
In the past, Laura has defended herself against criticisms of 'invasive' questioning on Aftersun.
Last series, a viewer reminded Laura on her Instagram how she named and shamed journalists for asking questions saying: 'If you're going to ask people invasive questions based off tabloid stories because it's your job... remember that when you name and shame other journalists who ask you the same questions because they're too doing their jobs.'
Laura defended her actions saying: 'I insist everyone sees the questions before they go on air and are ok with it. I believe in choice so nothing is ever asked without permission... that is the difference.'
Since leaving the villa Jacques has told how he left Love Island over fears he'd lose control but claims bosses tried to make him stay.
The reality personality decided to remove himself following the arrival of Adam as he declared: 'Love Island was the worst decision of my life.'
Jacques was rattled by the arrival of former contestant Adam, who set his sights on the rugby player's partner Paige Thorne, 24, before telling his fellow Islanders that the sportsman was 'immature'.
Adam, who was known for his womanising ways, made a shock comeback to the ITV2 show after originally appearing in series four in 2018.
Gemma's ex, Jacques, said he'd reached breaking point after Adam's arrival, telling The Sun: 'I thought if I don't get myself out things could go horribly wrong and I could get physical.'
Jacques said he removed his microphone and walked out the front doors of the villa before producers intercepted, prompting him to demand to be left alone.
He claims he'd been gone a day before bosses coaxed him back when he had a 'welfare chat' about his situation.
He insisted he 'couldn't deal with it' any longer and was in tears, saying he wanted to return to the UK.
He added: 'It broke me and I was already broken. I was crying my eyes out. I couldn't cope. I was literally feeling awful. It was the worst I'd ever felt in my life.'
Jacques' family revealed during his time in the villa that he had been diagnosed with ADHD at the age of nine and sometimes struggled to deal with emotional situations
All the complaints have been registered by Ofcom but there has been no decision yet from the media regulator to investigate.
Quit: On the July 12 episode of Love Island, 129 complaints were received, with the majority 'related to Adam entering the villa, and Jacques' wellbeing in the lead up to and during his departure from the villa'
ITV told MailOnline in response to the bullying claims: 'We cannot stress highly enough how seriously we treat the emotional well-being of all of our Islanders.'
'Welfare is always our greatest concern, and we have dedicated welfare producers and psychological support on hand at all times, who monitor and regularly speak to all of the Islanders in private and off camera.'
'At the same time, we also have a duty of care towards the Islanders, none of whom have any means of defending themselves against these highly damaging labels, as well as a duty of care towards their next of kin, and we are naturally concerned that this could provoke a negative response on social media.'
'Ahead of this series, contributors on the show were offered video training and guidance covering inclusive language around disability, sexuality, race and ethnicity, behaviours and microaggressions.
'We are always looking at how we expand and evolve on this training to ensure that all of our Islanders feel they are part of a safe and inclusive environment.' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11068513/Love-Island-2022-final-MailOnline-takes-look-dramatic-moments.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-01T10:52:46Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11068513/Love-Island-2022-final-MailOnline-takes-look-dramatic-moments.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true |

BANGKOK (AP) — World shares were mostly higher Monday after a strong close on Wall Street last week, though the latest manufacturing surveys showed weakening factory activity in Asia’s two biggest economies: China and Japan.
Germany’s DAX gained 0.3% to 13,522,83 while the CAC 40 in Paris added 0.4% to 6,473.00. Britain’s FTSE 100 climbed 0.4% to 7,455.55.
The futures for the S&P 500 and the Dow industrials were 0.2% lower. On Friday, Wall Street closed out its best month since November 2020. The S&P 500 index, a benchmark for many stock funds, rose 1.4%. It finished 9.1% higher for July.
In Asian trading, Tokyo’s Nikkei 225 index gained 0.7% to 27,993.35 while the Shanghai Composite index edged 0.2% higher, to 3,259.96. In Sydney, the S&P/ASX 200 rose 0.7% to 6,993.00. The Kospi in Seoul ended nearly unchanged at 2,452.25 and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng edged less than 0.1% higher to 20,163.08.
Chinese manufacturing’s recovery from anti-virus shutdowns faltered in July as activity sank, a survey showed Sunday, adding to pressure on the struggling economy in a politically sensitive year when President Xi Jinping is expected to try to extend his time in power.
Factory activity was depressed by weak global demand and anti-virus controls that are weighing on domestic consumer spending, according to the national statistics agency and an official industry group, the China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing.
“The country was already facing an uphill challenge, to put it mildly, with regard to its growth target this year and the fact that manufacturing activity is slowing again doesn’t bode well,” Craig Erlam of Oanda said in a commentary.
A similar survey of purchasing managers, the au Jibun Bank Japan Manufacturing PMI, slipped to 52.1 in July from 52.7 in June, the slowest growth in the sector in 10 months, as costs of energy and labor rose. The survey measures various components on a scale up to 100, with readings above 50 indicating expansion.
Investors in the region will be getting a new installment of updates on corporate results this week.
Wall Street’s latest rally came as investors weighed a mix of company earnings reports and new data showing inflation jumped by the most in four decades last month.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq rose 1.9%, ending the month 12.4% higher, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1% and notched a 6.7% gain for the month. The Russell 2000 rose 0.7%, ending July with a 10.4% gain.
Weak economic data, including a report Thursday showing that the U.S. economy contracted last quarter and could be in a recession, have also spurred stocks higher by giving some investors confidence that the Federal Reserve will be able to dial back its aggressive pace of rate hikes sooner than expected.
The central bank raised its key short-term interest rate by 0.75 percentage points on Wednesday, lifting it to the highest level since 2018. The Fed is raising rates in a bid to slow the U.S. economy and quell inflation.
An inflation gauge that is closely tracked by the Federal Reserve jumped 6.8% in June from a year ago, the biggest increase in four decades, leaving Americans with no relief from surging prices. On a month-to-month basis, inflation accelerated to 1% in June from May’s 0.6% monthly increase, the Commerce Department said Friday.
In Europe, inflation surged in July, hitting 8.9% in the 19 European countries that use the euro currency.
In other trading early Monday, U.S. benchmark crude oil lost 83 cents to $97.79 per barrel. It jumped $2.20 to $98.62 on Friday. Brent crude oil, the basis for pricing international oils, lost 21 cents to $103.76 per barrel.
The U.S. dollar fell to 132.60 Japanese yen from 133.25 yen. The euro rose to $1.0236 from $1.0223.

CAIRO (AP) — Sudan says it has detected the country’s first case of the monkeypox virus in the conflict-wrecked Darfur region.
The Health Ministry said late Sunday that the 16-year-old student’s case was discovered last week in West Darfur province. It did not give further details about the patient.
The ministry said there were at least 38 suspected cases of monkeypox and all tested negative to the virus but one in West Darfur. It said health authorities were working to determine the student’s contacts to limit the spread of the virus.
An outbreak of monkeypox could be devastating for Sudan, which suffered from decades of conflict in Darfur and other parts of the country, and international isolation. The East African nation is in turmoil since a military coup last year derailed its short-lived transition to democracy.
The virus originates in primates and other wild animals and causes fever, body aches, chills and fatigue in most patients. People with severe cases can develop a rash and lesions on the face, hands and other parts of the body.
The smallpox-related disease was commonly found in parts of central and west Africa, before spreading to different parts of the world.

European demand has kicked the US LNG industry into high gear, but its capacity is too low and the climate is being caught in the crossfire.
As Europe weans itself off Russian energy as punishment for Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, the continent's demand for liquefied natural gas (LNG) has soared to unprecedented levels.
The US is now the world's largest exporter of natural gas, yet political, economic and technical limits prevent the country from being its full-on savior. While the industry is booming, lacking export capacity is bottlenecking supply to Europe and the rest of the world.
Meanwhile, climate groups insist the LNG export boom is a destructive way to deal with the energy crisis, and other paths are available to ensure global climate goals are met.
"This is a risky path forward in terms of our energy needs and in terms of our climate," said Robin Schneider, executive director of the nonprofit group Texas Campaign for the Environment.
Skyrocketing natural gas prices have slammed Europe since the continent has sought to break its dependence on Russian gas and the invading nation has restricted its pipeline flows.
Prices jumped 25% last week as Russia announced its Nord Stream 1 pipeline to Germany would supply only 20% of its normal capacity. In May, the country responded to European sanctions by fully halting gas flows to Europe through the Yamal pipeline.
European nations are scrambling to store enough gas as winter approaches. Fears abound that rations will need to be implemented for both households and businesses and that the energy crisis could induce a recession.
The continent relies on natural gas for home heating, as well as electricity and industrial production.
Countries are enacting a number of initiatives to help households and businesses foot the bill, from Germany bailing out gas utilities to France nationalizing its state-backed power company EDF.
To meet Europe's natural gas demand, the US has solidified its spot as the world's largest LNG exporter in the first half of 2022, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA).
The country's average daily export surged 12% in the past six months to 11.2 billion cubic feet (bcf) per day.
Displacing Asia as the top importer of US LNG, the UK and EU received 71% of those exports — and are paying a premium. Poorer nations like Brazil or Bangladesh haven't been able to compete with Europe at current cargo prices. Some exporters have even broken contracts with poor countries to reroute fuel to Europe, reaping higher profits despite penalties.
According to Eugene Kim, research director at Wood Mackenzie's Americas Gas research department, the US has emerged as one of the only secure LNG suppliers. Thought to be potential growth areas prior to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Australia and Western Africa's gas industries have been limited by political and economic conflict.
"The Qataris and North America are the only future growth areas of LNG supply," Kim told DW.
But capacity issues on both sides of the Atlantic are limiting America's ability to play the superhero.
While President Joe Biden promised in March to export more LNG to Europe, the industry is already maxed out. Additionally, due to reliance on pipelines from Russia, much of Europe lacks sufficient import infrastructure even if America could export more LNG.
In the short term, US LNG exports are expected to drop significantly due to a June explosion at the Freeport LNG facility on the Gulf Coast.
The Freeport explosion will disrupt about one-fifth of the US' natural gas export capacity until late 2022 or early 2023
But the US was unequipped to fuel Europe even before the Texas incident. "Prior to the Freeport LNG explosion in early June, US LNG was reaching capacity," Kim said.
"Assuming everything is ramped up fully in 2023, we are still maxed out at 12 bcf a day. There is no new project that could substantially increase our LNG exports until the next wave of projects starts up," he added.
The existing capacity is largely tied up in long-term contracts with non-European nations, and the next wave of export infrastructure will not come online until 2024 or later. Even then, Kim explained that would not be enough capacity to fuel Europe.
Beyond capacity limitations, US consumer and business groups are resistant to the higher prices resulting from ramping up US LNG exports.
Paul Cicio, CEO of the manufacturer trade group Industrial Energy Consumers of America, told the Wall Street Journal that "the American consumer, the American economy, the American national security is at risk unless we maintain surplus inventory."
Indeed, prices have soared as the use of air conditioners during recording-breaking heat waves upended the loss in demand expected from the Freeport explosion, which kept gas intended for export in storage in the US. The EIA recently reported that US inventories are 12% lower than the five-year average for this time of year.
US gas is also receiving domestic and international resistance on the climate front.
Climate groups argue that the expansion of LNG infrastructure necessary to increase exports would mean reneging on existential goals to reduce fossil fuel emissions.
"A big concern is that LNG export companies are using [Europe's energy crisis] as an excuse to try and rush new export terminals through the permitting process and also avoid air pollution laws," said Schneider of Texas Campaign for the Environment.
Climate activists point out that LNG accounts for a third of the US's carbon emissions, including nearly half of its methane emissions. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has labeled methane, which is an especially potent greenhouse gas released by the fracking process, as a key driver of the climate crisis.
Fossil fuel companies are framing LNG as having low carbon emissions, branding its products 'responsibly sourced gas'
Further, research has shown that the natural gas extraction and liquefaction processes can be exceedingly dangerous and polluting.
In addition to methane, fracking can release cancerous and other harmful chemicals in the facilities' surrounding environment, which are disproportionately poor, Black and brown communities.
The liquefaction process also risks fires and explosions like the one at the Freeport LNG facility in Texas.
Schneider told DW the Freeport explosion is "an example of why this is dangerous stuff. We're scared and it could have been so much worse."
Despite the climate risks, the EU has moved to include natural gas in its list of sustainable investments, and US gas exporters have signed a flurry of contracts to meet European demand.
According to Kim, there's been a shift in Europe's energy priorities.
"Energy transition used to be a very big theme, but now energy security has crept in to supersede it. Let's get our energy security first, then tackle energy transition," Kim explained.
Schneider insisted that Europe could seek a cleaner route to energy, by investing more heavily in renewable energy, for example. New US LNG export facilities wouldn't even help the situation for another three years, she said, adding that Europe could "use this crisis to transition to more sustainable fuels."

DETROIT -- Tony Finau has changed the conversation about him in less than a calendar year.
Finau ran away with the Rocket Mortgage Classic on Sunday at Detroit Golf Club to become the first player in three years to win consecutive PGA Tour events in the regular season. He closed with a 5-under 67 for a five-shot victory and a tournament-record 26-under 262 total.
It was his fourth career victory, and third title in 11-plus months. Finau began his stretch of success last August at The Northern Trust, where he had his first victory in five years and 142 PGA Tour starts.
"I'm proud of the way I've fought through adversity in my career," said Finau, a Salt Lake City native with Tongan-Samoan heritage. "They say a winner is just a loser who kept trying, and that's me."
Finau ended a drought in Detroit, winning for the first time in six attempts when he had or shared the 54-hole lead in a PGA Tour event.
And, he did it easily.
Taylor Pendrith (72), Patrick Cantlay (66) and rookie of the year front-runner Cameron Young (68) tied for a distant second.
Former University of Arkansas golfer Taylor Moore posted a 6-under 66 on Sunday and finished sixth with a 19-under 269.
"I wasn't that close," Young said. "Tony put on a show."
Indeed.
Finau hit 66 of 72 greens in regulation, trailing the accuracy of just two players since 1980 in a PGA Tour 72-hole event. Peter Jacobsen hit 69 greens in regulation at Pebble Beach in 1995 and a year later, Willie Wood hit 67 at the Sanderson Farms Championship.
With Finaul's sixth birdie at No. 17 and a closing par, he broke Nate Lashley's tournament record of 25 under set in 2019 during the inaugural PGA Tour event.
The PGA Tour will close the regular season at the Wyndham Championship, with the North Carolina event opening Thursday. Players on the bubble will have one last shot to finish in the top 125 of the FedEx Cup standings to earn a spot in the playoffs and a full card next season.
Finau and Pendrith started Sunday tied after a third round that seemed like match play, and a potential Detroit duel turned into a dud.
Pendrith had his first lackluster round of the tournament after he shared the first-round lead with Finau, led him by one shot after the second and matched his 21-under total through three rounds.
The 31-year-old PGA Tour rookie from Canada hit an errant tee shot on the second hole to the right in the rough behind tree branches -- after being distracted by a fan running across the fairway -- and pulled a 9-foot putt on the hole to lose the lead for good.
Cantlay, No. 4 in the world ranking, had his third consecutive round in the mid-60s after opening with a 70. Young bounced back from a first-round 71 to finish second for the fifth time.
"I'd be lying if I said it was easy to just watch other people win," Young said. "Obviously, today Tony beat us all by a lot."
Pendrith struggled in the final round just as he did the only other time he had a 54-hole lead. He led the Bermuda Championship last October by three shots before a 76 dropped him into fifth place, which was his best finish before his showing in the Motor City.
"It stings a little bit," said Pendrith, who played in his third tournament after missing nearly four months with a broken rib.
Finau began to pull away from Pendrith with an 11-foot birdie putt at No. 4 and a tap-in for birdie at No. 7.
A par-saving, 11-foot putt at No. 9 was pivotal.
"When that lipped in, that gave me some momentum and then I was in control of the golf tournament," Finau said.
He made a 21-foot putt for birdie at No. 10 for his third birdie. After his first bogey in the tournament at No. 11, Finau made a 31-foot putt with a break from right to left at No. 12.
Finau was the 3M Open winner last week in Minnesota, where he rallied from five strokes back to win by three. Brendon Todd was the last PGA Tour player to win two in a row in the regular season, pulling off the feat in 2019.
"A week can change your life," Finau said. "When you look at mine, two weeks have changed my life." | https://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2022/aug/01/finau-pulls-away-from-classic-field/ | 2022-08-01T11:05:21Z | https://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2022/aug/01/finau-pulls-away-from-classic-field/ | false |

‘Ignore it at your peril’: Independent MP Allegra Spender slams Liberals for lack of female representation
The spotlight was on female representation, action on climate change and a revamp of parliament, when newly elected MP Allegra Spender took to the floor of parliament on Monday night to deliver her maiden speech.
The teal independent, who snatched the Sydney seat of Wentworth from Liberal Dave Sharma at the federal election, said women like herself were “done waiting”.
“I am the daughter of a female trailblazer, I am a feminist, I am the mother of girls – and if I do nothing else, I am one piece of a transformative change in the balance of this parliament,” she said.
“I will say to the Coalition – in 1996 in this parliament, 23 per cent of your members in the lower house were women – after this last election this was 19 per cent.
In 25 years, it has never gotten to above 25 per cent.”
The former businesswoman said women like herself had “been polite, we have asked nicely and waited”.
“We are done waiting, and we are taking what is ours,” she said.
“This cross bench reflects this. Ignore it at your peril.”
The independent told the story of her late mother, world-class fashion designer Carla Zampatti and her rise to fame, calling her “a champion of women, migrants and the arts”.
“Some in this room knew my mum, Carla Zampatti, – many of you knew her designs and if she was alive she would be delighted to see so many women in this house, and how many of them have worn her clothes this last week!” she said.
She taught me that as a woman I could and should do anything – and to not feel guilty about it.”
Ms Spender also called for tax reforms, an overhaul of the way public money is managed, a federal ICAC and greater focus on the housing market.
“We have a tax system that holds us back – stamp duty that imposes costs on housing, payroll tax that is a tax on working, a tax system that doesn’t drive productivity,” she said.
“It is not fit for purpose – the economists know it, the business community knows it, the social sector knows it – but neither party wants to deal with it.”
The daughter of John Spender, a former Liberal politician under Andrew Peacock and John Howard and granddaughter of Percy Spender, a Liberal MP for Warringah, said “many people asked me if it was hard to stand against my family’s Liberal tradition”.
“Saying yes was the hardest decision I ever made,” she said.
“I said yes because I watched with despair the former government go to COP 26 with a position that our businesses, our scientists, our community did not support.”
They did not stand for us.”
Following a fierce campaign against the teal independents, Ms Spender denied that their shared calls for greater climate action, integrity in politics and equal representation of women were “radical”.
“There were many who tried to paint me and other independents as radical. Our success proves how wrong they were,” she said.
But she didn’t stop there.
Ms Spender also called on the parliament to “behave better”.
“Because we do not behave like this in our living rooms, in our workplaces,” she said.
“I am yet to meet a member of the public who thinks the football match of Question Time is helping our country to be governed better.”
The former management consultant said money was not always the answer, accusing both sides of politics of signalling “their commitment to issues with dollar signs”.
“In business if you spend money and don’t get results, your budget gets cut. We are spending more money in education, in health and are going backwards,” she said.
“We must always remember that this isn’t our money, we are taking it out of the pockets of families who need it.”
To finish off her maiden speech, Ms Spender promised to stand “in the middle”, to mirror where most Australians stand ideologically.
“You can be pro-environment and pro-business. You can live in the city and care about regional Australia. You can be economically responsible and compassionate,” she said.
The independent also recognised her predecessors Dave Sharma, Kerryn Phelps and Former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.
“These are enormous shoes to fill.”

7 killed, including 5 kids, in wrong-way crash in Illinois
HAMPSHIRE, Ill. (AP) - Police say seven people are dead after a crash involving a wrong-way vehicle on an interstate in northern Illinois.
The crash occurred around 2 a.m. on Interstate 90 in McHenry County, roughly 50 miles from Chicago.
Police say 31-year-old Lauren Dobosz and five children in a Chevrolet van were killed. The children were ages 5 to 13.
The driver of the van, 32-year-old Thomas Dobosz, was seriously injured.
Jennifer Fernandez, the 22-year-old driver of an Acura TSX, was also killed in the crash. Police say she was traveling in the wrong direction on westbound I-90 before striking the van.
Both vehicles were “engulfed in flames,” according to police.
It wasn’t immediately known why Fernandez was in the wrong lanes.

Two separate incidents -- a drawbridge malfunction and a crash -- wreaked havoc on Monday's morning commute for people trying to use the Hutchinson River Parkway to get where they needed to go.
A drawbridge malfunction at Bartow Avenue in the Bronx forced the highway to be closed in both directions in the area around 2 a.m., judging by the tweets of exasperated drivers who said at 4 a.m. they had been waiting for two hours.
"Absolute gridlock, we’ve been waiting 2 hours now with absolutely no movement or clarity. I called 911 about an hour in, they said they were on it and had already received one previous call on the issue. An NYPD Traffic car rolled up about 20 min later. Since then, absolutely nothing," one wrote. "It is just complete disarray with no place to U-turn or get out, and everyone is hysterical beyond belief."
The reason for the malfunction wasn't clear, but the city's Office of Emergency Management started tweeting about the closure and suggesting drivers take alternate routes, around 4 a.m. Videos posted to social media showed cars stopped. Some still had their lights on, others were dark. And people were seen walking in between vehicles along the highway.
It was pitch black out, too. Traffic started slowly inching along for some shortly before 5 a.m. after some had spent three hours "waiting idly in the queue." It wasn't clear from authorities when or if the issue was completely resolved.
The drawbridge wasn't the only hiccup on the Hutchinson River Parkway Monday morning.
A collision shot down the northbound lanes at the New England Thruway around 5:45 a.m. There was no immediate word on injuries.

MONTRÉAL, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - CGI (TSX: GIB.A) (NYSE: GIB) announced today that it intends to enter into a private agreement with CDPQ for the purchase for cancellation of 938,914 of its Class A subordinate voting shares ("Class A Shares") held by CDPQ for a price of $106.51 per Class A Share, which represents a discount to the closing price on July 29, 2022 of the Class A Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX").
The transaction will be made in connection with the periodic portfolio rebalancing of CDPQ. Once completed, CDPQ will continue to hold approximately 22.5 million Class A Shares, representing approximately 9.5% of CGI's total outstanding shares.
"Once again this year, CGI produced excellent results for its shareholders and this repurchase of shares is an opportunity to monetize a portion of our investment to the benefit of our depositors" said Kim Thomassin, Executive Vice-President and Head of Québec at CDPQ. "Following this transaction, CDPQ will continue to be one of the main shareholders of CGI, and we intend to remain so to support the long-term growth of this information technology leader."
"This transaction is consistent with our value creation strategy and is immediately accretive to our shareholders," said Julie Godin, Co-Chair of the Board, CGI. "CGI has the strength and capital resources to execute on our Build and Buy profitable growth strategy given our strong balance sheet and excellent cash generation, combined with $2.3 billion of cash readily available at the end of June 2022."
A favourable decision was obtained from the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) to exempt CGI from the issuer bid requirements under applicable securities legislation. The transaction will be entered into at a discount, in accordance with the decision of the AMF, and is expected to be entered into later today and settled on August 2, 2022.
The share repurchase will be made under CGI's normal course issuer bid ("NCIB"), the renewal of which was announced on February 2, 2022. Under the NCIB, CGI is authorized to repurchase up to 18,781,981 Class A Shares by February 5, 2023. The NCIB allows for purchases outside the facilities of the TSX by private agreements pursuant to exemption orders issued by securities regulators. As at July 29, 2022, CGI had repurchased 5,088,959 Class A Shares under its current NCIB.
Information regarding the share repurchase, including the number of Class A Shares purchased for cancellation and aggregate price paid, will be available on the SEDAR website at sedar.com following the completion thereof.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Swvl Inc. ("Swvl" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: SWVL), a global provider of transformative tech-enabled mass transit solutions, today announced its entry into a strategic partnership with City Group Co. KSCP ("City Group"), a leading transport operator and warehousing services provider, through which City Group will utilize Swvl's Software as a Service ("SaaS") offerings in Kuwait. Under the partnership, Swvl and City Group will work to provide the optimal transportation platform for serving Kuwaiti residents, in an effort to simplify their daily lives. The platform will feature a wide range of services, including on-demand, door-to-door, ride hailing, ride sharing and network buses, as well as school and corporate solutions.
Swvl and City Group will initially focus on the development of an initial launch program titled "Citylink Shuttle." The program will include demand responsive transportation ("DRT") and other preferred services, with plans to scale services to 100 or more vehicles over the following six months. Following the successful completion of these phases, Swvl and City Group expect to initiate a comprehensive platform onboarding of City Group's remaining vehicles over a mutually agreed upon period.
Mostafa Kandil, Swvl Founder and CEO, said, "We are excited to partner with City Group to bring next generation of transportation solutions to Kuwait. We are deeply committed to the Kuwaiti transport sector and believe that collectively, we have the unique ability to transform the current offering and customer experience for the benefit of the country's daily passengers. In the process, we will make mobility more reliable, affordable, and convenient."
Mr. Kandil continued, "This partnership is another great example of how Swvl is leveraging strong and rapidly accelerating demand for its SaaS and B2G offerings, in turn facilitating expansion into new, attractive markets. We continue to demonstrate tremendous progress against our business plan goals. This SaaS partnership demonstrates the substantial synergies from our recent acquisitions of a controlling stake in Shotl and door2door, both leading SaaS platforms in Europe."
Youssef Salem, Swvl CFO, said, "We believe the launch of Citylink Shuttle in Kuwait, which is incremental to our business plan, provides Swvl with a compelling upside. It represents another major organic SaaS market expansion after Swvl's recent expansion into Brazil. The expansion of Swvl's SaaS business, its highest profitability segment, is expected to contribute to its plans to turn cash flow positive in 2023. Swvl's ability to pursue complimentary organic and inorganic expansions including the recent acquisition of Urbvan and healthy pipeline de-risk growth plans, increases capital efficiency and provides further upside."
Dr. Dheeraj Bhardwaj, Group CEO of City Group Co. said, "The core objective of Citylink Shuttle" is to provide smooth and safe transportation to match supply with demand efficiently in busy urban areas, in turn making those areas congestion free.
DRT is a form of shared transport for travelling individuals and groups. In this type of transport, vehicles alter their routes automatically, using advanced machine learning and AI technologies, based on transport demand without using fixed routes or timetabled journeys. These vehicles typically pick-up and drop-off passengers in specific stops according to the passengers' needs. The technology ensures that the pickup and drop-off locations are within walking distances from the passengers.
Citylink Shuttle will be a premium and an alternative service to personal vehicles or taxis. It aims to address several requirements by promoting optimized public transportation and majorly supplements the public transportation in areas with little to no access to it; and helps to organize transportation for everyone going to work, appointments, shopping, schools etc. This attractive service will translate into real savings for all, while offering better access to mobility and having a positive impact on the environment".
About Swvl
Swvl is a global provider of transformative tech-enabled mass transit solutions, offering intercity, intracity, B2B and B2G transportation across > 135 cities in > 20 countries. The Company's platform provides complimentary semi-private alternatives to public transportation for individuals who cannot access or afford private options.

Customers can book their rides on an easy-to-use proprietary app with varied payment options and 24 / 7 access to high-quality private buses and vans.
Swvl was co-founded by Mostafa Kandil, who began his career at Rocket Internet, where he launched the car sales platform Carmudi in the Philippines, which became the largest car classifieds company in the country in just six months. He then served as Rocket Internet's Head of Operations. In 2016, Kandil joined Careem, a ride-sharing company and the first unicorn in the Middle East. He supported the platform's expansion into multiple new markets.

- BMO's commitment to Madison now exceeds over $1 million
MADISON, Wis, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - BMO Financial Group today announced a $650,000 investment in several Madison community programs and organizations. These contributions will support the Urban League of Greater Madison's Black Business Hub, The Center for Black Excellence & Culture, and Boys & Girls Clubs of Dane County's McKenzie Workforce Development Center.
"Investments like these are at the core of our Purpose, to Boldly Grow the Good in business and life," said Anthony Hudson, Regional President, Retail Banking, Wisconsin, BMO Financial Group. "We are pleased to work with these great organizations to help make progress for the Madison community. Today's announcement, with these tremendous partners, exemplifies our commitment for a thriving economy, sustainable future, and inclusive society throughout the communities we serve."
"We are proud to work with the Urban League, The Center for Black Excellence & Culture, and the Boys & Girls Clubs to support the delivery of these important community programs. Alongside the economic growth and prosperity achieved by customers we serve, this financial commitment is a direct investment in the future of the Madison economy," said Jeff Ticknor, Senior Vice President and Group Marketing Director, Commercial Banking, Wisconsin, BMO Financial Group.
BMO is investing $250,000 over five years in the Urban League of Greater Madison's Black Business Hub. The Hub will serve as an entrepreneurial incubator for small businesses created by people of color. It will serve as an economic anchor, drawing resources to the area to create opportunities for business growth, employment, and social development. The Hub will support 200 Black-owned businesses and entrepreneurs, create or relocate 150+ jobs, and train Black real estate developers.
"The Urban League of Greater Madison is enormously proud of the partnership that we have with BMO in creating greater access to opportunities in the banking industry," said Ruben L. Anthony, Jr., Ph.D., President and CEO, Urban League of Greater Madison. "As we are on a mission to help build wealth for Brown and Black people in this community, BMO is right there with us, supporting initiatives such as the development of the Black Business Hub. This project and partnership we will create wealth for multiple generations."
BMO is also committing $250,000 over five years to The Center for Black Excellence & Culture.

"The Center for Black Excellence and Culture offers an exciting and important opportunity to create a cultural home for the Black community in Madison. This important investment in The Center demonstrates BMO's support in making the Madison community a welcoming, culturally rich home where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. We are grateful for BMO's leadership and commitment to The Center," said Dr. Alex Gee, Founder, The Center for Black Excellence and Culture.
In addition, BMO's contribution of $150,000 over three years will help support Boys & Girls Clubs of Dane County's McKenzie Workforce Development Center.

The Center will educate, and support interested youth to pursue careers as plumbers, carpenters, HVAC technicians, electricians and more. BMO's investment will allow young adults to access resources, programming, and support systems that will generate transformational change for families in South Central Wisconsin.
"Recently, we took on an initiative to build a skilled trades center that will offer the youth in our community another pathway to success and BMO was one of the first supporters to join our cause. Their team members are helping us build out a $35 million youth work force center by providing volunteers, funding, and guidance to help us achieve this historic goal, which will ultimately improve the labor shortage and racial disparities we see in our region," said Michael Johnson, CEO, Boys & Girls Clubs of Dane County.
BMO has committed more than $1 million to the Madison community. These investments are integral to BMO EMpower, BMO's five-year, $5 billion commitment to address barriers faced by minority businesses, communities, and families.

-Topline data expected in the second half of 2023-
WATERTOWN, Mass., Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYPT), a pharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing therapeutics to improve the lives of patients with serious eye disorders, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in the Phase 2 "Durasert® and Vorolanib in Ophthalmology 2" (DAVIO 2) clinical trial of EYP-1901, an investigational sustained delivery anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD).
"We are very pleased to announce the initiation of the Phase 2 DAVIO 2 clinical trial of EYP-1901 for wet AMD. Using a 'Treat to Maintain' therapeutic approach, EYP-1901 has the potential to transform the wet AMD treatment landscape by sustaining a majority of patients up to six months without supplemental anti-VEGF treatment, thereby greatly reducing the treatment burden," said Nancy Lurker, Chief Executive Officer of EyePoint Pharmaceuticals. "We are encouraged by the safety and efficacy results from our Phase 1 DAVIO trial, including no reports of ocular or drug related systemic serious adverse events and strong durability data with 53% of patients requiring no supplemental treatment up to six months. We anticipate initial topline data from our Phase 2 trial in the second half of 2023."
The twelve-month, randomized, controlled Phase 2 DAVIO 2 trial of EYP-1901 for wet AMD is expected to enroll approximately 150 patients, previously treated with a standard-of-care anti-VEGF therapy, randomly assigned to one of two doses of EYP-1901 (approximately 2 mg or 3 mg) or an aflibercept control. EYP-1901 is delivered with a single intravitreal injection in the physician's office, similar to current FDA approved anti-VEGF treatments. The primary efficacy endpoint of the DAVIO 2 trial is change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) compared to the aflibercept control six-months after the EYP-1901 injection. Secondary efficacy endpoints include change in central subfield thickness (CST) as measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT), time to first supplemental anti-VEGF, and safety. More information about the trial is available at clinicaltrials.gov (identifier: NCT05381948).
About EYP-1901
EYP-1901 is being developed as an investigational sustained delivery treatment combining a bioerodible formulation of EyePoint's proprietary Durasert® delivery technology with vorolanib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Positive twelve-month safety and efficacy data from the DAVIO Phase 1 clinical trial of EYP-1901 showed no reports of ocular or drug-related systemic serious adverse events and no dose limiting toxicities with stable visual acuity and OCT. Further, 53% and 35% of eyes did not require supplemental anti-VEGF injections up to six and twelve months, respectively, following a single dose of EYP-1901. Phase 2 clinical trials are underway for wet AMD and planned in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy in Q3 2022 and diabetic macular edema in 2023. Vorolanib is licensed to EyePoint exclusively by Equinox Sciences for the localized treatment of all ophthalmic diseases.
About Wet AMD
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) impacts as many as 11 million Americans. About 15% of those affected have neovascular or wet AMD - the hallmark of which is fluid and bleeding in the center of the retina, which may lead to irreversible vision loss. The majority of patients with wet AMD require intravitreal anti-VEGF injections every month or two to control the disease. This intense treatment regimen represents an ongoing challenge for patients, caregivers, and physicians.
About EyePoint Pharmaceuticals
EyePoint Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: EYPT) is a pharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing therapeutics to help improve the lives of patients with serious eye disorders. The Company's pipeline leverages its proprietary Durasert® technology for sustained intraocular drug delivery including EYP-1901, an investigational sustained delivery intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment initially targeting wet age-related macular degeneration. The proven Durasert drug delivery platform has been safely administered to thousands of patients' eyes across four U.S. FDA approved products, including YUTIQ® for the treatment of chronic non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye, which is currently marketed by the Company. EyePoint Pharmaceuticals is headquartered in Watertown, Massachusetts

HAMPSHIRE, Ill. (AP) - Police say seven people are dead after a crash involving a wrong-way vehicle on an interstate in northern Illinois.
The crash occurred around 2 a.m. on Interstate 90 in McHenry County, roughly 50 miles from Chicago.
Police say 31-year-old Lauren Dobosz and five children in a Chevrolet van were killed. The children were ages 5 to 13.
The driver of the van, 32-year-old Thomas Dobosz, was seriously injured.
Jennifer Fernandez, the 22-year-old driver of an Acura TSX, was also killed in the crash. Police say she was traveling in the wrong direction on westbound I-90 before striking the van.
Both vehicles were “engulfed in flames,” according to police.
It wasn’t immediately known why Fernandez was in the wrong lanes.

Millions of women and children have fled the war in Ukraine. Traffickers are waiting to prey on them
By Ivana Kottasová and Ana Sârbu, CNN
There was nothing obviously untoward about the woman who approached the Palanca border crossing between Ukraine and Moldova with a 15-year-old boy she said was her nephew. But something about the pair just seemed odd. The boy, in particular, appeared embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Suspicious, border officials started asking questions, bringing in social workers and psychologists. “We saw something was not okay, but didn’t know what. So we interviewed them separately,” the psychologist who helped conduct the interview told CNN.
It turned out their story was a lie. The woman was a stranger who had promised the boy a lucrative job in Cyprus — a chance to “be a man” and support his family living in Ukraine.
All he had to do was pretend to be her nephew, give her his passport and help her write a fake parental consent letter, he told the officials.
“We found his mother and called her, and she was crying and said she did not write any declaration and had no idea about this, it was terrible,” the psychologist said. CNN is not using their name for security reasons.
The incident was referred to Moldovan law enforcement for an investigation, the psychologist added. The border authorities did not respond to CNN’s request for more information about the case.
Authorities in the region and international organizations have warned that the number of women and children at risk of human trafficking has skyrocketed because of the war in Ukraine. While the boy at the Palanca crossing was reunited with his family — his mom came to the border to pick him up — many others may not be so fortunate.
CNN has spoken this month to a number of organizations involved in the humanitarian response to the crisis. All had examples of suspicious behavior targeting refugees, especially women — including a man who sought to lure away 10 pregnant women with a bogus offer of housing.
Another woman, Ludmila, who ended up in Moldova after escaping an abusive relationship in Ukraine as the war began, told CNN that her three children had been put at risk in what should have been a sanctuary. They were offered alcohol and worked for strangers, she said, before she managed to find a place in a shelter for vulnerable women in Chisinau, the Moldovan capital.
When Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his troops to attack Ukraine in late February, volunteers from across Europe rushed to the Ukrainian borders to offer help to those fleeing the violence. But so did people looking to exploit the situation.
Pramila Patten, the United Nations Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict, warned last month that the humanitarian crisis caused by Russia’s war in Ukraine was “rapidly turning into a human trafficking one in which women and children are being exploited.”
More than 5.9 million people have fled Ukraine since the start of the war, according to the UN’s refugee agency. The vast majority are women and children, many of them very vulnerable.
“And the longer the crisis goes on, the more desperate people get,” said Mendy Marsh, co-founder and executive director of VOICE, a non-profit focused on ending violence against women and girls in conflict, crisis, and disaster settings.
“In the beginning of a crisis, you have people who are the most mobile, who have the best connections, maybe a family to get to in Poland or other places in the region. As the crisis goes on longer and longer, there are fewer people who have those connections,” she said, and many are poorer. “Some people have had to move inside of Ukraine and then maybe they’re moving again.”
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) says its anti-trafficking advice hotline in Ukraine has received almost 19,000 calls since the war began — twice the monthly average. “We know that these evil predators are using every trick in the book to dupe confused, vulnerable people with promises of a safe onwards journey,” IOM spokesman Joe Lowry told CNN.
Traffickers’ tactics ‘getting better’
It’s not a new problem — some of the countries Ukrainian refugees are fleeing to, including Moldova, have long-term problems with human trafficking. Moldova has received 570,000 refugees from the war in Ukraine, with about 88,000 still in the country, according to UNICEF, the UN children’s agency.
A 2021 US State Department report into the issue said Moldova still doesn’t meet the minimum policy standards needed for the elimination of trafficking — despite making “significant efforts” to do so in recent years.
The war has amplified the risks. “Trafficking was entrenched in the region before the war and traffickers are not going away because of a conflict or crisis, they’re actually getting better in their tactics,” Marsh said.
Money is a key issue, according to the State Department report. Moldova is one of the poorest countries in Europe and resources are limited.
“Moldova already had a serious issue with social services, protection services” for children, victims of domestic abuse and those suffering gender-based violence, said Ilija Talev, UNICEF’s deputy representative in Moldova. “The crisis added to the issue and it also made the response more expensive.”
One organization that took on new responsibilities as the refugee crisis ballooned in Moldova is Memoria, a Chisinau-based rehabilitation center for victims of torture, violence and other inhuman or degrading treatment. The center offers medical assistance, psychological therapy, counseling, material help and information and advice.
A team of nine women — all of the employees there are women — used to see five to six clients a day before the war. These days, Memoria might need to assist as many as 80 — the majority of them from Ukraine. The group has encountered new issues, while also trying to keep focused on its core clients: Moldovan victims of violence and trafficking.
The center’s assistant project manager Andriana Zaslavet said money is tight and the group is struggling to hire more experts. As in other conflicts, foreign donations often target big, international organizations rather than local groups. Yet it is precisely groups like Zaslavet’s that can offer personalized help because of their local expertise. This extends to educating refugees about the risks of trafficking.
“I had a [client] who is divorced with two little children, she is young and beautiful and she got a contact for someone in France who was supposedly providing support for refugees,” Zaslavet said.
“She contacted him on WhatsApp and he began to ask for photos and was sending her compliments and began to be very insistent that she comes to France, offering money and support if she did, and she became very uncomfortable,” Zaslavet said. In the end, the woman did go to France, but to a different place, where she felt safe, she added.
Dubious offers of help
Yana Tovpeko, who is part of VOICE’s Ukraine response team, recalled cases of people coming to refugee shelters offering dubious work opportunities or transport to other countries.
“Many people try to help, some are volunteers, some are just random people offering a ride and that can be a problem,” she said. “A woman with heavy luggage, with children, needs help; if somebody offers transport, it can be a potentially dangerous situation.”
Tovpeko said VOICE had come across a number of examples of suspicious behavior. There was the man who came into one shelter offering housing for 10 pregnant women. When social workers accompanied the women who wanted to stay with him to the accommodation, it turned out to be a scam — there were no supplies and almost no equipment.
“Ukrainian refugees constantly look for job opportunities, for more permanent, more stable housing opportunities and there are many suspicious offers,” Tovpeko said. “Many women are staying in unofficial shelters, private homes and private hotels … we met with women who were forced to wash dishes seven days per week.
“And when we talked to them, it’s been two months, they were staying at this private place, without any weekend, any time off and they were happy about the conditions and didn’t complain, but when you analyze this situation, it seems like it is a forced labor,” she said.
Talev, of UNICEF, said many refugees are at their most vulnerable — and most at risk of being exploited — immediately after crossing the border.
“[They] need to deal with that initial shock of what is happening in this moment: ‘I am a refugee.’ I think the first time that really hits them is when they cross the border, and they separate from whoever left them on the other side, it’s usually a husband or father or brother,” he said, adding that this initial shock is why UNICEF and other aid organizations tend to concentrate their forces near the border.
Officials at the border crossing in Palanca are well aware of the risk. Anton Zagoreț, the deputy head of the East Directorate of the Moldovan border police, said his team had come across numerous cases of minors traveling on their own or with people who were not their parents.
While most cases are not nefarious — kids might be traveling to safety with relatives or family friends — officials are required to refer each case to specially trained social workers, because of the risk of trafficking.
On the day of the invasion, Zagoreț remembers hearing loud bangs from explosions across the border. And then the crowds came — thousands of people, many with no documents, he said. The line of cars waiting to cross the border was as long as 20 kilometers (12 miles), according to the border police.
“We have protocols to follow when … a minor is traveling with a stranger — we bring in social workers and our partners. We have many minors coming through — every day, even now, maybe four or five kids, mostly [teenagers] traveling on their own,” he said.
New beginnings
When help is not available, the consequences can be dire. Other times, that help comes just in time.
Ludmila, a 35-year-old mother-of-three from Izmail in southwestern Ukraine, was in an abusive relationship for more than a decade. Ludmila is not her real name — she is so scared of her husband and his family, she asked CNN to use a pseudonym.
She said her husband, an alcoholic, beat her and their children. Everybody in their village knew, as did her family, she said. But nobody helped. Sometimes people asked why she didn’t leave — but that was impossible, she said, with no money, three children and a controlling husband.
The war gave her an opportunity finally to escape. Since Ukrainian law currently prevents men aged 18 to 60 from leaving the country, her husband was forced to stay behind. Ludmila and her two sons, age 17 and 15, and her 9-year-old daughter walked all day to get to the border with Moldova.
They ended up in a small village living with relatives of her husband. It wasn’t the safe haven she imagined. The kids worked for strangers in the village to make money and were regularly offered alcohol, she said.
She got sick and, after months of suffering physically and mentally, turned to local authorities for help and was offered a place with her children in a shelter for vulnerable women in Chisinau. Now, she and her children have access to therapy and other resources and are slowly rebuilding their lives. “Strangers here treat me better and offer me more respect than my husband,” she told CNN, nervously clutching her fists and struggling to maintain eye contact.
Ludmila’s neighbor in the shelter, Natasha, who asked for her last name not to be published for safety reasons, had spent the past nine years in Burundi. She was trafficked there by a man she trusted who offered a lucrative business opportunity. All she had to do was travel to the African country and help him set up a gaming business there, she recounted. He promised to pay $1,500 a month — big money for Natasha, whose mother was ill and needed care.
Things didn’t go the way she imagined. The business plan fell through and the man quickly abandoned her, she said. She was stuck in a foreign country, with no money and no way to go back. She worked in low paid jobs, lived in unsafe accommodation and later gave birth to a boy whose father turned out to be abusive and violent. He threatened to kill her if she left, Natasha said.
Last month, six years after the birth of her son, she finally managed to escape, with the help of a UN-affiliated NGO. She was going home — except she wasn’t. A war is raging in her home country of Ukraine.
Like Ludmila, Natasha and her son found refuge in Moldova. The little boy is full of energy, doing cartwheels mid-sentence and running around with the other kids living in the shelter. He proudly informs everyone he meets that he is Ukrainian — despite never having set foot in the country.
Natasha says he is very excited about the prospect of going “home.” The biggest draw? Something he’s never experienced in Burundi: Snow. “He wants to see the winter and snowflakes and to wear gloves. He keeps asking when will it get cold.”
The boy will have to wait a few months to get his first taste of a European winter, but it may be even longer before it’s safe to go to Ukraine.
Ludmila has a different dream. “I want to start from the beginning and have a new life. I don’t want to go back to my husband. If I can find work here, I would like to stay here,” she said, adding that her children are also getting therapy, slowly working through the trauma they’ve experienced.
“I’d like to find a place where I can cook for them, all the dishes they’d like, borscht of course, they ask about that all the time,” she said tearfully. “I really wish that would happen. I believe in God, I believe in miracles.”

CHICAGO — On a recent morning inside Chalmers School of Excellence on Chicago’s West Side, five preschool and kindergarten students finished up drawings. Four staffers, including a teacher and a tutor, chatted with them about colors and shapes.
Chalmers lost almost a third of its enrollment during the pandemic, shrinking to 215 students. In Chicago, COVID-19 worsened declines that preceded the virus: Predominantly Black neighborhoods like Chalmers’ North Lawndale, long plagued by disinvestment, have seen an exodus of families over the past decade.
The number of small schools like Chalmers is growing in many American cities as public school enrollment declines. More than one in five New York City elementary schools had fewer than 300 students last school year. In Los Angeles, that figure was over one in four. In Chicago it has grown to nearly one in three, and in Boston it’s approaching one in two, according to a Chalkbeat/AP analysis.
Most of these schools were not originally designed to be small, and educators worry the coming years will bring tighter budgets even as schools are still recovering from the pandemic’s disruption.
“When you lose kids, you lose resources,” said Crockett, the Chalmers principal. “That impacts your ability to serve kids with very high needs.”
A state law prohibits Chicago from closing or consolidating schools until 2025. And across the U.S., COVID-19 relief money is helping subsidize these shrinking schools. But when the money runs out in a few years, officials will face a difficult choice: Keep the schools open despite the financial strain, or close them, upsetting communities looking for stability for their children.
“My worry is that we will shut down when we have all worked so hard,” said Yvonne Wooden, who serves on Chalmers’ school council. Her children went to the pre-K through eighth-grade school, and two grandchildren attend now. “That would really hurt our neighborhood.”
The pandemic accelerated enrollment declines in many districts as families switched to homeschooling, charter schools and other options. Still other students moved away or vanished from school rolls for unknown reasons.
Many districts like Chicago give schools money for each student. That means small schools sometimes struggle to pay for fixed costs — the principal, a counselor and building upkeep.
To address that, many allocate extra money to small schools, diverting dollars from larger schools. In Chicago, the district spends an average of $19,000 annually per student at small high schools, while students at larger ones get $10,000, according to the Chalkbeat/AP analysis.
“I love small schools, but small schools are very expensive,” Chicago schools chief Pedro Martinez told the school board recently. “We can get some really creative, innovative models, but we need the funding.”
At the same time, these schools are often stretched thin. Very small schools offer fewer clubs, sports and arts programs. Some elementary schools are forced to group students from different grades in the same classroom, although Martinez has vowed that won’t happen next year.
Manley Career Academy High School on Chicago’s West Side illustrates the paradox. It now serves 65 students, and the cost per student has shot up to $40,000, even though schools like Manley offer few elective courses, sports and extracurricular activities.
“We’re spending $40,000 per pupil just to offer the bare minimum,” said Hal Woods of the advocacy group Kids First Chicago, which has studied declining enrollment in the district. “It’s not really a $40,000-per-pupil student experience.”
Small schools are popular with families, teachers and community members because of their tight-knit, supportive feel. Some argue districts should pour more dollars into these schools, many of them in predominantly Black and Latino neighborhoods hard hit by the pandemic. Schools can serve as community hubs and points of local pride even as they lose students — as is the case in North Lawndale.
Race also looms large. Nationally, schools with more students of color are more likely to be closed, and those in affected communities often feel unfairly targeted.
The prospect of closing schools is particularly fraught in Chicago, where 50 schools were shuttered in 2013, most in predominantly Black neighborhoods. The move frayed trust between residents and the district and, according to University of Chicago research, markedly disrupted learning for low-income students.
In Boston, where the district had been losing students well before the pandemic, families are skeptical of closures.
Among the schools most at risk is P.A. Shaw Elementary School in Boston’s Dorchester neighborhood. Revived from a previous closure in 2014, the school had just over 150 students last year, down from 250 in 2018. After making plans to eliminate two classrooms earlier this year — seen by some as a harbinger of closure — the district faced blowback from parents and teachers.
Parents rallying behind the school included Brenda Ramsey, whose 7-year-old daughter, Emersyn Wise, is entering second grade. When Ramsey became homeless and went to stay with family during the pandemic, teachers from Shaw drove half an hour to deliver schoolwork. Later, the school’s staff helped Ramsey find permanent housing.
Ramsey, 32, still remembers the joy she felt when she and her two daughters first visited Shaw.
“The principal looked like them — she was a young Black woman who was excited to see them,” she said.“ They were really big on family engagement, family involvement, and that’s just something you don’t see that often.”
Now, with the school’s fate in question, Ramsey is debating whether to keep Emersyn there.
Ramsey’s dilemma illustrates what the district calls its “cycle of declining enrollment”: Schools’ enrollment falls, leading to financial instability – which prompts even more families to leave. The problem is often worse at schools with more students of color.
And when schools face closure, it’s “devastating” for families, said Suleika Soto, acting director of the Boston Education Justice Alliance, which advocates for underrepresented students.
“It means you have to uproot,” she said. “And then if parents don’t like it, then they’ll remove their children from the public school system, which again adds to the toxic cycle.”
Nevertheless, some urban school districts that are losing students, including Denver, Indianapolis, and Kansas City, Missouri are considering school closures. Earlier this year, the Oakland, California, school board voted to close several small schools despite furious protests.
“School budgets have been cut as a way to keep more schools open,” said former Oakland board member Shanthi Gonzales, who resigned in May soon after voting to support school closures. “There are really awful tradeoffs.”
Elsewhere, leaders — buoyed by federal COVID-19 relief funds — have continued to invest in these schools.
Chicago will use about $140 million of the $2.8 billion in COVID-19 relief it got to help prop up small schools this school year, officials said. Martinez, who took over as schools chief last fall, has sidestepped talk of closures, saying he wants to study how the district can make its campuses more attractive to families — and push for more money from the state.
In Los Angeles and New York City, officials say they’re focused on luring students back into the system, not school closures.
But federal relief money will run out soon: districts must budget that money by September 2024. When it does, districts may be hard pressed to keep all of their small schools afloat.
“It’s a huge problem,” said Bruce Fuller, an education researcher at University of California, Berkeley. “It’s going to be increasingly difficult for superintendents to justify keeping these places open as the number of these schools continues to rise.”

A voluntary nationwide recall has been issued for three batches of Banana Boat Hair & Scalp Sunscreen Spray SPF 30.
An internal review found that some samples of the product contained trace levels of benzene. While benzene is not an ingredient in any Banana Boat products, the review showed that unexpected levels of benzene came from the propellant that sprays the product out of the can.
The products are:
UPC, Description, Lot code, expiration, code
- 0-79656-04041-8 Banana Boat Hair & Scalp Spray SPF 30 20016AF December 2022 6 oz
- 0-79656-04041-8 Banana Boat Hair & Scalp Spray SPF 30 20084BF February 2023 6 oz
- 0-79656-04041-8 Banana Boat Hair & Scalp Spray SPF 30 21139AF April 2024 6 oz
No other Banana Boat products are in the scope of this recall and may continue to be used by consumers safely and as intended.
Edgewell Personal Care Company said consumers should dispose of the affected product and will be offered reimbursements.
Benzene is classified as a human carcinogen. Exposure to benzene can occur by inhalation, orally, and through the skin and it potentially can result in cancers including leukemia and blood cancer of the bone marrow and blood disorders which can be life threatening.
Edgewell has not received any adverse events related to this recall. Benzene is ubiquitous in the environment. Humans around the world have daily exposures to it indoors and outdoors from multiple sources. Daily exposure to benzene in the recalled products would not be expected to cause adverse health consequences according to an independent health assessment using established exposure modeling guidelines.
The voluntarily recalled sunscreen spray products are packaged in aerosol cans. The products were distributed nationwide in the United States through various retailers and online. Edgewell has notified its retailers to remove any remaining recalled product from shelves. Banana Boat will also offer reimbursement for consumers who have purchased a product marked with one of the lot codes in the table above. Lot codes are located on the bottom of the can. Consumers should stop using the affected product immediately and appropriately discard. | https://www.al.com/life/2022/08/popular-sunscreen-recalled-due-to-possible-carcinogen-heres-what-you-need-to-know.html | 2022-08-01T11:49:16Z | https://www.al.com/life/2022/08/popular-sunscreen-recalled-due-to-possible-carcinogen-heres-what-you-need-to-know.html | false |

SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- FIBERSTAMP is proud to release the 400G data center interconnect architecture based on silicon photonics transceivers. Currently, what the interconnection scenarios within 2 kilometers of 400G data centers mainly deployed are the 400G QSFP-DD DR4 transceivers based on EML technology. However, the data centers have been looking forward to a new technology that can address the higher and higher bandwidth demands coming with emerging artificial intelligence and machine learning applications, and that is silicon photonics technology.
For hyperscale data centers, 400G QSFP-DD silicon photonics optical transceivers have brought some tangible benefits. The signal generated by the silicon photonics transceivers features less dispersion, less inter-symbol interference (ISI), and the best optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR), etc., which ensure the high quality of optical transmission based on the 100G PAM4 technology. For massive demands, silicon photonics can significantly reduce the cost per bit. In addition, the latency and power consumption caused by DSP can also be well reduced with silicon photonics technology.
The launch of FIBERSTAMP's 400G silicon photonics transceivers has paved the road for high-speed 400G data centers. The company is looking forward to the recognition and appreciation of customers and the industry.
Highlights of FIBERSTAMP's Silicon Photonics 400G QSFP-DD DR4/DR4+ Transceivers
- Industry-leading 7nm DSP chip
- Silicon Photonics chip integrated with multiple active and passive chips such as MZM modulators, silicon waveguides, and detectors
- 4-channel fiber array coupling components and ultra-low loss CW light source coupling technology
- The integrated chip is greatly reduced in size and can be packaged into the transceiver with mature COB technology, which significantly simplifies the design and manufacturing process.
- TDECQ ≤ 2.0dB, BER reaches 1E-11 without FEC
- Reach up to 2km and power consumption is lower than 9W
"The Silicon Photonics 400G DR4/DR4+ transceivers are designed for the intraconnection of data centers, such as the interconnection between TOR switches and Leaf switches, where the number of interconnections is extremely large," said Aaron Chow, the product manager of FIBERSTAMP, "We believe that our Silicon Photonics 400G QSFP-DD DR4/DR4+ transceivers can become the most reliable choice for data centers based on 112G PAM4."
About FIBERSTAMP
As the mail carrier of open optical network, FIBERSTAMP is committed to providing global customers with Economic, Professional and Efficient products and solutions, including 25G/50G/100G/200G/400G optical transceivers, active optical cables (AOCs), direct attached cables (DACs), 100G/200G/400G coherent optical modules, and UHD video optics.

YANGZHOU, China, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Meihua International Medical Technologies Co., Ltd. ("MHUA" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: MHUA), a reputable manufacturer and provider of Class I, II and III disposable medical devices with operating subsidiaries in China, today reported its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. All amounts are in U.S. dollars.
Fiscal year 2021 highlights:
- Revenue increased by 16.82% to $104.04 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $89.06 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
- Gross profit increased by 7.13% to $39.81 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $37.16 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
- Gross margin slightly decreased to 38.26% for the year ended December 31, 2021, from 41.72% for fiscal year 2020.
- Income from operations increased by 7.80% to $25.30 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $23.47 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
- Net income increased by 4.99% to $20.00 million for year ended December 31, 2021 from $19.05 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Mr. Yongjun Liu, Chairman of the Company, commented: "During the past year COVID-19 still hangs over the world and poses many new challenges and opportunities to the economy and the medical industry in various countries. Thanks to our extensive product offerings, a strong upstream and downstream supply chain system and technical upgrades to our equipment and production capacity, our total sales increased to more than $100 million, representing a growth rate of more than 16% from 2020. We continue to place great importance on maintaining healthy cash flow reserves in the context of improving both our production and marketing capacity. Our strong cash reserves of more than $8 million as of end of last year, and the $36 million in proceeds raised from our successful IPO in February 2021 makes us confident we can further improve our production efficiency and new product research and development, especially in response to the COVID-19 infection cases in Shanghai and other regions since the first quarter of 2022. The Company has also increased a new production line of COVID-19 testing products. As another wave of the new coronavirus variant broke out, international and domestic orders have shown a continuous growth trend.
"Under our core value that 'science and technology lead production,' we plan to complete the construction of a new factory for the production of coronavirus detection and prevention products this year. In this way we can continue to maintain and expand our leading position in the industry in this environment as the spread and variation of the pandemic continues. We believe that the ongoing strategy of new product development and production capacity upgrades will further distinguish Meihua from a segmented market and enable us to become one of the world's leading medical device suppliers in the next few years. At the same time, we will continue to monitor the changing market conditions in order to timely optimize our operation strategies and maintain rapid growth post-pandemic and create stable and long-term value returns for investors.
"As a medical device manufacturer with a leading position in the industry and a long history of more than 30 years, while developing at a high speed, we still adhere to a strict pursuit of product quality and production safety. Regardless of the type of products and their margins, the company uses a unified high standard of production and services. Because Meihua's products concern human life and health, we can't tolerate any carelessness. After the ups and downs of 2021, the company continues to maintain its commitment to the development and scientific research of new products, improve our production efficiency, and win long-term sustainable growth with high-quality after-sales service. We are dedicated to playing an important role in the global medical device supply chain."
Mr. Yulin Wang, CEO and interim CFO of the Company, commented: "Overall, we achieved solid revenue growth in fiscal year 2021 and greatly optimized the Company's operational efficiency with our net income expanding by nearly 5% to $20 million for the past year. As we advance, we will continue our commitment to building robust product capabilities, making them our core strengths that drive our Company to meet people's growing needs for a better life.
"With our strong cash position we are confident in the sustainable profitability of all of our core key businesses, which maintained a strong gross margin at about 40% over the past two years, as well as the growth and profit potential of our new initiatives. The Company's management team will continue to work together to seek profitable growth. We believe our continued commitment to high quality products and operational efficiency will generate more value for our customers, society and shareholders over the long term.
"The Covid-19 outbreak posed some challenges to the Company's financial works that led to a slight delay in the reporting of our financial results. But we quickly adjusted and resolved all issues. Meihua will deliver sustainable growth and provide timely update on our business to cement investor confidence in the future."
Fiscal Year 2021 Financial Results
The following table sets forth a summary of our consolidated results of operations for the periods presented:
Revenues
Revenues increased by $14.98 million or approximately 16.82%, to $104.04 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 from $89.06 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was mainly due to the company's business expansion, research and development of new products, and development of new customers.
Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues primarily include cost of materials, direct labors, overhead, and other related incidental expenses that are directly attributable to the Company's principal operations. Cost of revenue increased by $12.33 million to $64.23 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 from $51.90 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was mainly attributable to the increased sales in fiscal year 2021.
Gross profit and margin
Gross profit increased by $2.65 million or approximately 7.13%, to $39.81 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 from $37.16 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. Gross margin slightly decreased to 38.26% for the year ended December 31, 2021, from 41.72% for fiscal year 2020. The higher gross profit margin in fiscal 2020 was mainly attributable to much higher selling prices and increased gross margin for medical masks as a result of COVID-19 in fiscal year 2020. The price of medical masks fell back to normal levels as a result of increased supply in fiscal 2021, which brought down the overall gross profit margin.
Operating costs and expenses
Our operating costs and expenses, consisting of selling expenses, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses, increased by $0.81 million or approximately 5.92%, to $14.50 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 from $13.69 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Selling expenses decreased by 2.42% to $6.46 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 from $6.62 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The decrease was mainly attributable to the combined effects of the followings:
- The Company did not conduct additional market research in fiscal year 2021 as market research activities incurred in fiscal year 2020 were still valid. Market research expenses were nil in fiscal year 2021 as compared to $579,357 in fiscal year 2020.
- The increase in sales led to an increase of $329,025 in transportation expenses for fiscal year 2021 to $2.80 million.
- Salaries and benefits expenses increased by $176,995 to $1.29 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was mainly attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic in China had been brought under control and the local government had canceled the social insurance relief policy.
- Entertainment expenses decreased $83,365 to $0.79 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease was mainly attributable to the fact that Yangzhou City in the PRC had been under lockdown for some period due to the epidemic in fiscal 2021, so the relevant business entertainment expenses were reduced.
General and administrative expenses increased by $742,235 to $5.32 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $4.58 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was mainly due to the $0.96 million investor relations service fee incurred in fiscal year 2021.
Research and development expenses increased by approximately 9.64%, to $2.73 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $2.49 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase was mainly due to the increase in salaries and benefits expenses which was mainly attributable to the pandemic in China having been brought under control and the local government having canceled the social insurance relief policy that had been in place during the height of the pandemic.
Income from operations
As a result of the factors described above, our income from operations increased by $1.84 million, or approximately 7.80%, to $25.30 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 from $23.47 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Net income
As a result of the factors described above, our net income increased by $945,991, or approximately 4.99%, to $20.00 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 from $19.05 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
Cash
Cash was $8.15 million as of December 31, 2021, reflecting an increase of $0.96 million from $7.19 million as of December 31, 2020.
Recent developments
On February 19, 2022, the Company announced the closing of its initial public offering (the "Offering") of 3,940,000 ordinary shares at a public offering price of $10.00 per ordinary share (the "Ordinary Shares") including 340,000 Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the partial exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option, for aggregate gross proceeds of $39.4 million before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

“We’ve got our work cut out for us,” Surf manager Jeff Ball said. “It’s just going to be a good series, and I think it will go five games. We won it last year and we’re looking to repeat. It’s been tough. We’ve had a bullseye on our back all year.”
The Surf have some good hitters, including Caden Dulin, Monny Strickland, Dante DiPalma, Dave Appolonia, Antonio Caraballo (Ball’s son) and Jimmy Pasquale. Leading pitchers include Cole Vanderslice, Carson Denham, Kyle Transue and Matt Steiger. Kevin Foreman and Nick Atohi are also key players.
“It’s all about winning and it’s about scoring runs,” Ball said. “If we can set it up early, our pitchers will be more relaxed. I have a somewhat different team than last year. The majority are local guys.”
The Blue Dawgs have won nine straight, including the four playoff games. They outscored their opponents 29-4 in those four games.
“We expect a hard-fought series, and we’ve been looking forward to it since last year,” Buena manager Jim Kurtz said. “The Surf have a strong team and they’re very well coached. We expect a lot of exciting games.”
Denny Brady, a former minor leaguer in the Los Angeles Angels system, and Dante Coia are leading pitchers for the Blue Dawgs. Brady is one of the top hitters. Other leading batters include Alexi Colon, Jim Kurtz Jr. (son of the coach), brothers Luis and Yani Sauri and Jake Guglielmi. Buena has other good pitchers, including Joey Kurtz (also a son of the coach), Andrew Slade and TJ Cheli. Jay Peacock is a key player.
“I think we’re a balanced team with pitching, defense and hitting,” Coach Kurtz said. “Our lineup is strong from 1 to 10. We have four or five good pitchers, and if it’s five games in a row (with no rainouts) that may be good for us. Defensively we don’t beat ourselves. Denny Brady is hitting about .500, and Alexi Colon is about .480.” | https://pressofatlanticcity.com/sports/local/surf-blue-dawgs-to-meet-in-sjssbl-finals-rematch/article_a89b6aa8-10fe-11ed-919c-4b8cbb9c567b.html | 2022-08-01T11:52:00Z | https://pressofatlanticcity.com/sports/local/surf-blue-dawgs-to-meet-in-sjssbl-finals-rematch/article_a89b6aa8-10fe-11ed-919c-4b8cbb9c567b.html | false |
WASHINGTON — Traditionally, August is a time in which politics slows down a bit. Congress usually leaves Washington for a month-long recess, and presidents typically take a vacation.
Former President Donald Trump loved August in New Jersey. Former President Barack Obama loved August in Martha’s Vineyard.
Former President George W. Bush enjoyed August at his Texas ranch. However, this August, there is a lot of politics to pay attention to – including this week’s primary on Tuesday.
RACES TO WATCH
August 2 is the primary day in several states.
One of the more interesting races will be in Kansas, where the first abortion-related election that has happened since the Supreme Court struck down abortion rights earlier this summer.
Kansas voters will decide if their constitution should continue to protect abortion or if state officials have the power to pass new restrictions. The results will be studied across the country.
Kansas has more registered Republicans than Democrats, but this election will show whether Democrats have convinced any conservatives to join them on this divisive issue.
TRUMP VS PENCE
Even though former President Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence are not on the ballot Tuesday, it will feel like it in Arizona especially. That’s because Trump and Pence are backing different candidates for governor.
Trump has endorsed Former television news anchor Kari Lake. Pence is supporting Karrin Taylor Robson.
The result will help answer the question -- what does the future of the Republican Party look like and just how influential still is the former president?
PRIMARIES & IMPEACHMENT CONSEQUENCES
You can’t forget about the elections in Missouri, Michigan and Washington state either on Tuesday. Missouri has an open republican primary for retiring Republican Senator Roy Blunt.
In Michigan and Washington, Republicans who voted to impeach former President Trump are fighting for their political life. Mr. Trump has made it clear he wants all of them defeated.
Political revenge will be a theme throughout August.
Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney of Wyoming, who voted to impeach former President Trump and helped lead the January 6 hearings, is in a primary battle in Wyoming on August 16 as well. All polls indicate she will lose. So don't discredit the politics of August, vacations can wait. | https://www.wrtv.com/news/national-politics/why-you-should-pay-attention-to-elections-in-some-states-this-week | 2022-08-01T11:55:18Z | https://www.wrtv.com/news/national-politics/why-you-should-pay-attention-to-elections-in-some-states-this-week | true |

PART 3. Examples\nHIPC-IMF Debt to SADR: Morover! - An Addditionall\nAlberto Alpizar and Rama Bhaidry The field of Alzheimer's research is branching out.
After decades of focusing on the sticky amyloid plaques and tangled tau fibers associated with the disease, brain researchers are searching for other potential causes of impaired memory and thinking.
That search is on full display this week at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in San Diego, where sessions are exploring factors including genes, brain injury, clogged arteries and inflammation.
A group of researchers from Seattle even unveiled a highly detailed atlas showing how different types of brain cells change in Alzheimer's. The goal is to help scientists identify new approaches to treatment.
"Certainly, plaques and tangles are a hallmark," says Maria Carrillo, chief science officer of the Alzheimer's Association. "It doesn't mean plaques are the cause of cell death."
Plaques are clumps of a protein called beta-amyloid that appear in the spaces between neurons. Tangles are made up of a protein called tau that appears inside a neuron.
Both proteins tend to accumulate in the brains of people with Alzheimer's. But their role in killing brain cells is still unclear.
Carrillo says the Alzheimer's field needs to look to cancer research where a deeper understanding of the disease has led to better treatments.
The shift comes after a series of experimental drugs have succeeded in removing amyloid plaques and tau tangles from the brain, but failed to halt the disease.
The Food and Drug Administration has approved one amyloid drug, Aduhelm, but is still evaluating whether it actually helps patients.
An Alzheimer's Atlas
The study that produced the atlas is emblematic of how researchers are recalibrating.
"What we're trying to do with this study is to look at cell vulnerability early on in disease, before [people] have plaques and tangles, before they have cognitive impairment," says Dr. C. Dirk Keene, a neuropathologist at the University of Washington.
To create the atlas, Keene and a team of researches analyzed more than a million cells from 84 brains donated by people who'd signed up for Alzheimer's research projects run by the University of Washington and Kaiser Permanente Washington Research Institute.
The brains came from donors "at all different stages of disease" Keene says, "so we can pinpoint what's happening from the earliest levels all the way through to people with advanced disease."
The effort is funded by the National Institute on Aging and grew out of the federal BRAIN initiative launched by President Obama in 2013.
The atlas came from the realization that "If we want to treat diseases of an extremely complex cellular organ, you need to understand that organ much better than we do," says Ed Lein, a senior investigator at the Allen Institute for Brain Science, which played a key role in analyzing the brain tissue.
So the team spent years studying cells in healthy brains before looking at brains affected by Alzheimer's.
"We've defined what a normal adult brain looks like," Lein says, "and now we can use that knowledge and look for changes that are happening in specific kinds of cells."
Finding vulnerable brain cells
At the Alzheimer's meeting, the team described changes they saw in more than 100 types of cells taken from the cortex — an area of the brain which is important to memory and thinking.
One finding was that neurons that make connections within the cortex itself were much more likely to die than those that connect to distant areas of the brain.
"What we're seeing is a profound effect on cortical circuitry that very plausibly is the reason we have cognitive decline," Lein says.
If so, a treatment designed to protect those vulnerable neurons might prevent declines in memory and thinking linked to Alzheimer's.
The team also found a proliferation of brain cells that contribute to inflammation. These included certain immune cells and a type of cell that responds to injury.
"So while the neurons are lost, the non-neuronal cells are actually increasing and changing" Lein says.
The finding supports the idea that inflammation plays an important role in Alzheimer's, and that anti-inflammatory drugs might help protect the brain.
The Seattle team hopes other scientists will use the brain cell atlas to come up with new treatments for Alzheimer's.
"We've created an open-access resource where the whole community can come and look at this data," Lein says. "They can mine it to speed up progress in the field as a whole."
Speeding up progress is one reason Kyle Travaglini, a researcher at the Allen Institute, jumped at the chance to work on the Alzheimer's project.
"My grandmother started developing Alzheimer's disease when I was just going off to college," says Travaglini, who received his PhD in 2021.
Travaglini says the atlas project is appealing because it isn't based on a preconceived idea about what causes Alzheimer's.
"It's like looking at the same disease that everyone has been looking at but in an entirely different way," he says.

XO Cross Catheter Platform successfully used in peripheral vascular procedures utilizing pedal artery retrograde access to treat complex Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) patients.
PARK CITY, Utah, Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Transit Scientific reports multiple successful peripheral vascular procedures with the XO Cross Catheter Platform utilizing pedal retrograde access. The non-tapered 2Fr XO Cross 14 Microcatheter in 90cm, 135cm, and 175cm lengths is designed to facilitate guidewire support, guidewire exchange, and contrast media injection during complex peripheral vascular interventions.
"2Fr 014 catheter-guidewire systems are an important tool for pedal and below-the-knee interventions," said Dr. George Adams, Interventional Cardiology Director Cardiovascular and Peripheral Vascular Research at UNC REX Healthcare. "The XO Cross incorporates a non-tapered torquable shaft design which supports a smaller and less invasive access site from below. Tools like these can help broaden options for approaches and access techniques in CLI patients."
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a severe degree of peripheral artery disease (PAD) that requires intervention to avoid limb loss and its associated complications. The standard treatment strategy for tibial lesions involves either a retrograde or antegrade femoral artery approach, but in many patients, this strategy poses challenges due to the presence of widespread multilevel disease, long and complex lesions, and the common involvement of tibial vessels. The retrograde pedal/tibial approach is an alternative way to treat this challenging patient population.
The XO Cross Catheter Platform introduces new levels of pushability, trackability, flexibility, and torque response to access challenging lesions and complex anatomy. XO Cross's non-tapered, metal-alloy and polymer construction delivers high fatigue resistance against tough lesions found in late-stage peripheral artery disease (PAD) and critical limb ischemia (CLI).
Dr. Richard Saxon of Tri-City Medical Center, Oceanside, CA shared, "A patient presented with trifurcation disease and severe calcifications in the superficial femoral artery (SFA), popliteal, and the posterior tibial (PT) artery. The low-profile and pushability of the XO Cross 14 enabled pedal retrograde access following failed crossing and wire from above. A second XO Cross 14 (135cm) was used from above to support a flossing technique and subsequent angioplasty treatment. The unique non-tapered design of the XO Cross lends itself well to challenging limb salvage procedures that often require multiple access sites and different approaches to achieve a good outcome."
Transit Scientific's XO Cross Platform features (24) FDA-cleared devices including 2Fr XO Cross 14 Microcaths, 2.6Fr XO Cross 18 Microcaths, and the 3.8Fr XO Cross 35 Support Catheters for use with standard 0.014", 0.018", and 0.035" guidewires in 90cm, 135cm, 150cm, and 175cm lengths.
Transit Scientific is a private company that designs, develops, and commercializes medical devices including the FDA-cleared and CE Mark-cleared XO Score® and XO Cross® platforms plus the XO Cath Interventional Oncology and XO CS Coronary System under development. Transit Scientific has 20+ combined issued and pending U.S. and global patents. www.XOScore.com

Do you have a small Premium Bond holding from a long time ago? Proof it CAN win big as £25 from 1983 scoops a £25k prize this month…
- Somerset based holder purchased the winning bond almost 40 years ago
- The £25,000 win from a £25 holding represents a whopping 100,000% return
- In May NS&I upped the Premium Bond underlying prize fund rate from 1% to 1.4%
One lucky Premium Bond holder has scooped a 100,000 per cent return on their investment after winning £25,000 on a holding of just £25 in this month's draw.
It also proves that older purchases can win too, with the bond having been bought in November 1983 - the same month that saw Billy Joel dominate the singles chart with Uptown Girl and Sean Connery star as James Bond one last time in Never Say Never Again.
The Somerset based holder won with a £10 bond after patiently holding it for almost 40 years.
Tidy return: NS&I now pay out more than 4.8m tax free prizes ranging from £25 to £1m every month to Bond holders.
It comes after the odds of each £1 Premium Bond number winning a prize has improved from 34,500 to 1 to 24,500 to 1.
Although there are still an unchanged two £1million prizes on offer, the number of £100,000 prizes have risen from six to 10, and £50,000 prizes from 11 to 19.
Along with the boost to £100,000 and £50,000 prizes, the number of £25,000 prizes has increased from 24 to 40.
While many who have purchased Premium Bonds in recent years now choose to be alerted to a win via email, many older and smaller bonds like this one may not be signed up to an alert system, meaning it is important to check historic holdings and contact details.
As for this month's two £1million jackpot winners, these were won with far more sizeable holdings.
One winner, from Dorset held the maximum £45,000 purchased last August, while the other winner, from Buckinghamshire, held £22,875, purchased in April 2009.
Premium Bonds Winners
Over the past two years a considerable amount has been stashed into Premium Bonds.
There are currently more than 118billion bond numbers eligible for the draw, up from just over 86billion eligible bonds in March 2020.
In May, NS&I upped the Premium Bond underlying prize fund rate from 1 per cent to 1.4 per cent boosting the chances of its 21million savers bagging a monthly prize.
This means NS&I now pay out more than 4.8million tax free prizes ranging from £25 to £1million every month to Bond holders.
However, it is worth noting that a win will most likely secure you one of the £25 prizes awarded each month.
For example, this month, roughly 3.34million of the 3.42million prizes awarded were for £25.
The popular NS&I product allows savers to stick up to a maximum of £50,000 in the account.

First Alert: An earlier Monday start to storms expected
There may be a quicker start to the wet weather today, and with that, Charlotte may not quite make it to 90 degrees this afternoon.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - A First Alert remains in play today, as more showers and storms are in the forecast, but there are some subtle changes.
- First Alert Today: Storms may get an earlier start
- Midweek: Middle 90s back in the forecast
- Looking Ahead: Above-normal temps hold thru the weekend
There may be a quicker start to the wet weather today, and with that, Charlotte may not quite make it to 90 degrees this afternoon, something that has happened each of the past 17 days. It will be a close call.
Regardless, the heat index will make a run into the middle 90s, so it will still feel steamy! As was the case over the weekend, the main concerns today are lightning, damaging wind gusts and heavy downpours that could lead to localized flooding.
Another warm and sticky night will follow with lows close to 70 degrees.
The midweek period will bring slightly a lower rain chance but higher heat. High temperatures Tuesday through Thursday will make a run back to the low to middle 90s each day with heat index values in the upper 90s. A stray shower or thunderstorm is possible each afternoon.
For the end of the week and the weekend, we’ll be keeping a close eye on a cold front which will likely increase the coverage of showers and storms across the area. Highs on Friday into the weekend will drop from the lower 90s, still above normal for this time of the year.

ALLEN PARK -- The rookies have already gone through their own minicamp, plus three rounds of Organized Team Activities, then another minicamp with the full roster. Now they’ve been on the field for four straight days of training camp.
Problem is none of it was in pads.
That day arrives today, and the Detroit Lions are about to get a much clearer picture of what exactly they have in their first-year players. But safe to say the early returns on Aidan Hutchinson have been huge, from dropping three straight quarterbacks during his first practice in front of the media, to blowing past Penei Sewell for a sack in his last one.
Asked by MLive which rookies have stood out the most during padless work this summer, Dan Campbell started right there with the standout pass rusher out of Michigan.
“It’s so hard (to tell much) without pads, but certainly Hutch, I mean I can’t ... he just ... he pops,” Campbell said. “To watch him just continue to work and go through it, I’m telling you, every day he just gets a little bit better, and that’s all you care about, is that you just see a little bit of improvement every day.”
No surprise there. Campbell was keen on Hutchinson throughout the draft process, a high-production pass rusher with high-end strength, high-end speed and high-end motor. He also happens to have the sort of grit Detroit wants for this rebuild, like Sewell and Amon-Ra St. Brown. As the pads go on today, Hutchinson -- and his looming battles with Sewell -- figures to be one of the stars of the show.
But Campbell also dropped another rookie’s name that has stood out to him, and it was a little more surprising: Chase Lucas, the seventh-round cornerback out of Arizona State.
Lucas was selected with the 237th overall pick in the draft, and with Jeff Okudah back to full health, not to mention Amani Oruwariye coming off a six-pick year, plus Jerry Jacobs and A.J. Parker fresh off standout rookie seasons, plus the addition of veteran Mike Hughes, Lucas figures to have a tough path to the roster. He still does. But seems like he’s really helped himself heading into the dog days of camp.
“Lucas has caught my eye,” Campbell said. “I would tell you particularly in the special teams drills, that’s where I really see it. The compete drills. And there’s an awareness about him. He’s pretty instinctive, and he’s aggressive. You’ve got to have all of that to be a good special-teams player. I would say those are probably the two that really pop to me right now.”
That’s good news for Lucas’ bid to make the team. Special teams is usually the best way for late-round picks to stick on the roster, and that’s especially true for a guy like Lucas, who has so many guys back at his position.
A former high school track star and All-American running back, Lucas has shown good speed since moving to cornerback at Arizona State. He started on the outside before sliding inside during his six years in Tempe, and has drawn most of his reps there in Lions camp. Parker is fimerly entrenched with the first team, but Lucas has shown nice polish to his game, especially in the third phase.
That could have something to do with the fact that he’s 25 years old, after opting to stay in Tempe for a sixth season because of COVID. That’s older than third-year players like D’Andre Swift, Jeff Okudah and Quintez Cephus.
He also was coached by former NFLers like Herm Edwards -- who also was a cornerback -- and Marvin Lewis.
“Just having them come in and try to critique the little things I was doing wrong, whether it was shadowing with the wrong hand or moving with the wrong foot, I feel like that just progressed 10 times, tenfold over the last three, four years,” Lucas said. “Especially because we kept adding new coaches like Chris Hawkins from USC, who kind of just taught me to be my own man and play my own technique. I feel like when they came, they kind of sharpened the edges where I needed to sharpen. I feel like it made me better as a whole, as a player and as a person, everything.
“I feel like my experience is going to help me, especially in the NFL and especially because I was coached by NFL coaches like Marvin Lewis, (and) Herm Edwards. I’ve been around pro guys. I’ve been around pro coaches. I feel like their competitive nature at the Detroit Lions is going to fit my type of style of how I am, (and) how I play. I feel like just my experience alone probably even got me drafted. I’m just excited. I’m happy and just thankful for this opportunity.”

-Topline data expected in the second half of 2023-
WATERTOWN, Mass., Aug. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYPT), a pharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing therapeutics to improve the lives of patients with serious eye disorders, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in the Phase 2 "Durasert® and Vorolanib in Ophthalmology 2" (DAVIO 2) clinical trial of EYP-1901, an investigational sustained delivery anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD).
"We are very pleased to announce the initiation of the Phase 2 DAVIO 2 clinical trial of EYP-1901 for wet AMD. Using a 'Treat to Maintain' therapeutic approach, EYP-1901 has the potential to transform the wet AMD treatment landscape by sustaining a majority of patients up to six months without supplemental anti-VEGF treatment, thereby greatly reducing the treatment burden," said Nancy Lurker, Chief Executive Officer of EyePoint Pharmaceuticals. "We are encouraged by the safety and efficacy results from our Phase 1 DAVIO trial, including no reports of ocular or drug related systemic serious adverse events and strong durability data with 53% of patients requiring no supplemental treatment up to six months. We anticipate initial topline data from our Phase 2 trial in the second half of 2023."
The twelve-month, randomized, controlled Phase 2 DAVIO 2 trial of EYP-1901 for wet AMD is expected to enroll approximately 150 patients, previously treated with a standard-of-care anti-VEGF therapy, randomly assigned to one of two doses of EYP-1901 (approximately 2 mg or 3 mg) or an aflibercept control. EYP-1901 is delivered with a single intravitreal injection in the physician's office, similar to current FDA approved anti-VEGF treatments. The primary efficacy endpoint of the DAVIO 2 trial is change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) compared to the aflibercept control six-months after the EYP-1901 injection. Secondary efficacy endpoints include change in central subfield thickness (CST) as measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT), time to first supplemental anti-VEGF, and safety. More information about the trial is available at clinicaltrials.gov (identifier: NCT05381948).
About EYP-1901
EYP-1901 is being developed as an investigational sustained delivery treatment combining a bioerodible formulation of EyePoint's proprietary Durasert® delivery technology with vorolanib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Positive twelve-month safety and efficacy data from the DAVIO Phase 1 clinical trial of EYP-1901 showed no reports of ocular or drug-related systemic serious adverse events and no dose limiting toxicities with stable visual acuity and OCT. Further, 53% and 35% of eyes did not require supplemental anti-VEGF injections up to six and twelve months, respectively, following a single dose of EYP-1901. Phase 2 clinical trials are underway for wet AMD and planned in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy in Q3 2022 and diabetic macular edema in 2023. Vorolanib is licensed to EyePoint exclusively by Equinox Sciences for the localized treatment of all ophthalmic diseases.
About Wet AMD
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) impacts as many as 11 million Americans. About 15% of those affected have neovascular or wet AMD - the hallmark of which is fluid and bleeding in the center of the retina, which may lead to irreversible vision loss. The majority of patients with wet AMD require intravitreal anti-VEGF injections every month or two to control the disease. This intense treatment regimen represents an ongoing challenge for patients, caregivers, and physicians.
About EyePoint Pharmaceuticals
EyePoint Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: EYPT) is a pharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing therapeutics to help improve the lives of patients with serious eye disorders. The Company's pipeline leverages its proprietary Durasert® technology for sustained intraocular drug delivery including EYP-1901, an investigational sustained delivery intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment initially targeting wet age-related macular degeneration. The proven Durasert drug delivery platform has been safely administered to thousands of patients' eyes across four U.S. FDA approved products, including YUTIQ® for the treatment of chronic non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye, which is currently marketed by the Company. EyePoint Pharmaceuticals is headquartered in Watertown, Massachusetts

Hundreds of people walked through the streets of Bolton in memory of The Wanted singer Tom Parker, visiting his old haunts in the town and places special to him.
Tom, who grew up in Tonge Moor, Bolton, died at a hospice in south-east London in March at the age of 33 after being diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour. The 'Walk for Hope' walk was organised to celebrate Tom's life ahead of his 34th birthday this Thursday and raise money for a campaigning foundation.
Ahead of the Game foundation, which the event raised money for, said it aims to bridge a 'gap' in the NHS by providing free rehabilitation to those diagnosed with all types of cancer to make a positive impact on people's lives when they need it most.
Tom's mum, Noreen Parker, led off the walkers and said the event had grown so much she was touched by people's care and response. She told ITV Granada Reports : "It's his birthday on Thursday so this is a walk we wanted to do.
"We wanted to raise some money for Ahead of the Game. But also for people that couldn't come down to the funeral - friends, family, fans in Bolton to come along and do the walk."
The five kilometre walk through the town started at Tom's primary school, St Brendan's RC Primary, before heading to Tonge Park, where a young Tom would play with his friends. From there, walkers headed to The Swan bar for karaoke - where Tom once won a singing competition.
Parker announced in October 2020 he had been diagnosed with stage-four glioblastoma and had begun radiotherapy and chemotherapy. He wrote about his experiences in a book titled 'Hope'.
Tom married his partner, Kelsey Hardwick, in 2018 and welcomed their son, Bodhi, in October 2020. Their daughter, Aurelia Rose, was born in 2019.
Kelsey confirmed news of his death in a statement, saying: "It is with the heaviest of hearts that we confirm Tom passed away peacefully earlier today with all of his family by his side.
"Our hearts are broken, Tom was the centre of our world and we can't imagine life without his infectious smile and energetic presence. We are truly thankful for the outpouring of love and support and ask that we all unite to ensure Tom’s light continues to shine for his beautiful children."
The band released their self-titled debut album in 2010 and went on to enjoy several hits including UK chart-topping singles All Time Low and Glad You Came. In 2014, The Wanted announced they were taking some time apart so that each member could pursue personal endeavours but since reformed for a new tour.
It's hoped the 'Walk for Hope' has raised upwards of £5,000 for the foundation.
