(LEAD) Kakao Pay narrows net loss in Q2 on franchise partnership expansion
(ATTN: RECASTS with more details; CHANGES headline; ADDS photo)
SEOUL, Aug. 2 (Yonhap) -- Kakao Pay Corp., the online payment unit of South Korean tech giant Kakao Corp., said Tuesday its second-quarter net loss decreased 38.4 percent from a year earlier thanks to expansion of retail franchise partnerships.
Kakao Pay logged a net loss of 5.7 billion won (US$4.4 million) on a consolidated basis in the three months ending in June, compared with a 9.28 billion-won net loss a year earlier, the company said in a regulatory filing.
Sales climbed 22.8 percent to 134.1 billion won, and the company's operating loss widened to 12.5 billion won, compared with an operating loss of 8.2 billion won a year earlier.
The operating loss was 142 percent higher than the average estimate, according to the survey by Yonhap Infomax, the financial data firm of Yonhap News Agency.
The company attributed the on-year net loss reduction to the growth of sales led by those of its transaction service division, which grew 35.7 percent on-year, backed by an expansion of online and offline retail franchise partnerships.
Volume of transactions during the second quarter amounted to 29.1 trillion won.
The service's accumulated users reached 38.15 million, with monthly active users tallied at 21.95 million. The average number of annual transactions per user climbed 25 percent to 100.3.

How to apply for Winter Love Island: Everything you need to know to land yourself in the villa for a season of love
Another season of drama and romance in Love Island has come and gone.
But luckily for fans, it has been confirmed we will be treated to a second dose of the show this winter.
Winter Love Island will begin at the start of next year and will be making a return to South Africa once again.
Back again: It has been confirmed we will be treated to a second dose of the show this winter, with Winter Love Island
The first and only series of the winter show aired in 2020 and was won by Paige Turley and Finn Tapp.
They are one of the show's rare success stories - still loved-up and currently living together in Manchester.
Plans for a second winter series were shelved in 2021 amid concerns surrounding the pandemic.
Winners: The first and only series of the winter show aired in 2020 and was won by Paige Turley and Finn Tapp
Paul Mortimer, Director of Reality Commissioning and Controller, ITV2, said 'Love Island has once again proved itself to be the nation's favourite talking point across the summer, and we're always blown away by the show's ongoing impact and talkability amongst our younger audience. So, rather than just serving up a Summer of Love, we thought we'd make 2023 the Year of Love with two full series of the show.'
Mike Spencer, Executive Producer at Lifted Entertainment, said 'After eight brilliant series, we are excited to be serving up two helpings of love in 2023 by kicking off in January at a stunning new villa in South Africa. We can look forward to more romances, bromances and everything in between as we embark on another epic year of love.'
If you want to spend the winter in the sun and find love, you can apply to be on Winter Love Island on ITV's website.
The site says: 'ITV2 are looking for vibrant singles from across the UK who want to head to the sun, in search of love!
Application: If you want to spend the winter in the sun and find love, you can apply to be on Winter Love Island on ITV's website
'The chosen cast will spend time in a luxury villa, getting to know one another, but to remain in paradise they must win the hearts of the public and their fellow Islanders who ultimately decide their fate on Love Island.;
Applicants must be 18 years or over if they want to apply.
They also state they may need 'sensitive information', writing: 'We may also collect and process personal information which is more sensitive than ‘everyday’ personal information, such as your mental health, your physical fitness and health, your sex life, your sexual orientation, your political opinions, your religion, your race and your criminal history (which may include allegations, on-going proceedings and/or convictions).'
Applications are currently open and will remain so, until ITV announce a closing date on the Love Island website.
It comes after Davide and Ekin-Su were crowned the winners of Love Island 2022.
Winner, winner! Ekin-Su and Davide won Love Island 2022 and will split the £50,000 prize money
As the news was announced, emotional Ekin-Su, 27, jumped into her Italian beau's arms as they celebrated their win and speechless Davide exclaimed he 'couldn't believe it'.
Congratulations rushed in for genetically-blessed couple Ekin-Su and Davide as viewers celebrated their win on social media, admitting that they thought the 'right couple had won'.
The couple finished ahead of Gemma Owen, 19, and Luca Bish, 23, who were awarded second place and narrowly missed out on the money, with bosses deciding to ditch the 'split or steal' twist that usually comes at the end for the first time in the history of the ITV2 show.
In previous years, winners have picked an envelope which either has the prize money or nothing enclosed, with one person in the couple being given the £50,000 with the option to 'split or steal' the cash.
This year, host Laura Whitmore, 37, announced during Monday night's live final they would automatically be sharing the money as producers opted to scrap the tradition which has been in place since series one. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11072159/How-apply-Winter-Love-Island-need-know-land-villa.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-02T08:35:12Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11072159/How-apply-Winter-Love-Island-need-know-land-villa.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false |
Googe Play is aiming to cut down on the number of copycats available on its store.

Titles like 'Justin Bieber Official' are not allowed without the necessary permissions or rights."
Meanwhile, the company also announced that developers cannot show full-screen ads of all formats and have also banned ads that do not offer a skip button after 15 seconds.
The post added: "Developers are required to comply with the following ads guidelines to ensure high quality experiences for users when they are using Google Play apps. Your ads may not be shown in the following unexpected ways for users: Full screen interstitial ads of all formats (video, GIF, static, etc.) that show unexpectedly, typically when the user has chosen to do something else, are not allowed.

Full screen video interstitial ads that appear before an app’s loading screen (splash screen) are not allowed. | https://nordot.app/927112094821908480 | 2022-08-02T08:37:01Z | https://nordot.app/927112094821908480 | true |

China's Liaoning launches freight train transporting PV products to Europe
(Xinhua) 13:04, August 02, 2022
SHENYANG, Aug. 2 (Xinhua) -- A China-Europe freight train carrying 50 containers of photovoltaic (PV) products left a train station on Sunday in Shenyang, capital of northeast China's Liaoning Province, for Duisburg, Germany.
These PV products were manufactured by a company in Jinzhou City of Liaoning. The whole journey of the train totals 10,517 km. It is expected to arrive at Duisburg in 21 to 25 days.
The freight train will help the company boost exports while catering to the demand of overseas markets.
By July 29, the China-Europe freight trains launched from Liaoning Province had made a total of 199 trips this year, a year-on-year increase of 20.6 percent.

Almost 20 years ago, Bryan Hall came to the Eureka Rescue Mission as a person who was struggling and needed to find housing. On Tuesday, as the executive director of the shelter, Hall held a ceremony for the latest graduate, Steve Morrison, from the New Life program, which Hall says helped him overcome his own struggles and has had a 90% success rate.
“You can take somebody with — I don’t know — a complacency in the life, maybe they have an illicit drug problem, and put them directly in housing, but without addressing the underlying issues of why they became homeless in the first place, it won’t be long before they lose that housing for whatever reason and end up back on the street homeless,” Hall said. “What we endeavor to do at the rescue mission is address those issues.”
Hall coordinates with other providers like Uplift Eureka, which provides job skills training and other services, and Betty Chinn, who has access to computers at the Betty Kwan Chinn Day Center that people can use to build their resumes.
Once those issues are addressed, however, finding affordable housing can be a challenge.
“Most of the people who stay with us actually work,” Hall said. “They’re saving their money to move into permanent housing … So that’s the big thing, the housing.”
And outside the rescue mission, people are still sleeping in tents and on the street. Few wanted to talk about their experiences, save for transients passing through the area. While a recent point-in-time count found the number of people who are homeless dropped below pre-pandemic levels, Chinn and other providers say the numbers have actually increased.
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic opened up more funding streams for housing assistance than were available before March 2020, said Robert Ward, the county Department of Health and Human Services housing and assistance coordinator. For instance, Project Roomkey provided funding to convert hotels and motels into temporary housing and Project Homekey is converting those hotels into permanent supportive housing.
Roomkey ended in June of last year, but Ward said it served a lot of people and many of the Project Roomkey sites are turning into Homekey sites. For instance, Providence Mother Bernard House is providing 20 units of shelter space while its renovating to convert more units into permanent supportive housing. The Days Inn that Arcata House Partnership operated is one of the Homekey sites as well and Redwoods Rural Health Center is continuing to operate a motel voucher program.
“So far there are 17 Homekey permanent housing units in operation by Arcata House at the former Teen Challenge site on Fourth Street in Eureka,” Ward said.
Ward said, as far as he knew, no other county of Humboldt’s size “has done anything on this scale.”
Arcata House Partnership also created a safe parking program for people who are using their cars as housing and the Housing Authority received new resources for emergency housing vouchers through the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Even then, there are challenges. Some of the vouchers require individuals to score fairly high on a vulnerability index in order to receive them.
Places like Arcata House Partnership have a low barrier to entry and are operating on a housing-first model, meaning the organization doesn’t require anyone to be sober before coming into its program.
The program works on the idea you can put someone into housing first and then help them improve from there by offering them resources and services, but right now there aren’t enough places to put people because there isn’t enough housing, especially the further up the chain you go.
“There are some problems going from shelter to transitional and from transitional to permanent supportive to just regular housing,” said Eureka City Manager Miles Slattery.
While the city has had success getting people jobs and into homes — the city housed more than 120 people in the past two years — it doesn’t have the very low-income units, costing about $470 month, Slattery said.
“It’s hard to find that type of low-income housing,” Slattery said. “We’re in the process of addressing that and once we get some of these affordable programs and projects going … that’ll help out significantly.”

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Ascend Elements Inc. will invest $310 million in a new Kentucky plant, creating 250 full-time jobs in Christian County.
Ascend produces advanced, sustainable battery materials from recycled lithium-ion batteries. The plant will produce enough recycled battery precursor and sustainable cathode active materials to equip up to 250,000 electric vehicles annually, Gov. Andy Beshear's office said Monday.
There is potential to increase to $1 billion in investment and a total of 400 full-time jobs with later phases, which would be the Westborough, Massachusetts-based company's largest U.S. operation.
The state approved a 15-year incentive agreement that can provide up to $7.5 million in tax incentives and additionally approved up to $2 million in sales and use tax incentives.
The 450,000-square-foot (41,806-square-meter) facility will be on 140 acres (56 hectares) in Hopkinsville's Commerce Park II. | https://www.sfchronicle.com/news/article/New-Kentucky-plant-to-create-250-jobs-in-17344718.php | 2022-08-02T08:56:49Z | https://www.sfchronicle.com/news/article/New-Kentucky-plant-to-create-250-jobs-in-17344718.php | true |
"We are only a step away from nuclear destruction..."
UN Secretary General António Guterres warned today that "humanity is only one misunderstanding and one misjudgment away from nuclear destruction".
Source: TanjugGuterres said this at the opening of a long-delayed high-level conference to revise the landmark 50-year-old Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) with the aim of finally achieving a world without nuclear weapons, AP reports.
The UN Secretary General specifically cited the war in Ukraine and the threat of nuclear weapons in conflicts in the Middle East and Asia as risks, two regions "that are on the verge of disaster" and pointed out that the meeting is being held "at a critical moment for our collective peace and security", at a time of nuclear danger not seen since the height of the Cold War.
According to him, the conference is "an opportunity to adopt measures that will help to avoid catastrophe and to see humanity on a new path without nuclear weapons".
Guterres said that nearly 13.000 nuclear weapons are in arsenals around the world, and that countries seeking "false security" are spending hundreds of billions of dollars on "doomsday weapons".
"All this is happening at a time when the risks of proliferation are growing and the mechanisms to prevent escalation are weakening. Crises with nuclear overtones are simmering from the Middle East and the Korean peninsula to Ukraine," Guterres said.
He called on the conference participants to urgently strengthen and reaffirm the 77-year-old treaty against the use of nuclear weapons, to work tirelessly to eliminate nuclear weapons with new commitments to reduce arsenals, and to promote the peaceful use of nuclear technology.
"Future generations are counting on your commitment to bring us back from the brink. This is our moment to face this fundamental test and end the threat of nuclear annihilation once and for all," Guterres told the conference participants.
U.S. President Joseph Biden said today that the US is ready to talk with Russia about a new arms control agreement that would replace New START, but only if Moscow shows that it is ready to continue teamwork.
"Even at the height of the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union were able to work together to uphold our shared responsibility to ensure strategic stability," Biden said, pointing out that China also has a responsibility as a nuclear-armed state to engage in negotiations that will "reduce the risk of miscalculations" and address destabilizing military dynamics.
Meanwhile, the head of Iran's atomic energy sector, Mohammad Eslami, said Iran has always said its nuclear program is for civilian purposes only.
India and Pakistan are nuclear powers that have not joined the NPT, as has North Korea, which ratified the treaty but later announced withdrawal. Israel, which is not a signatory to the treaty, is believed to have a nuclear arsenal, but has neither confirmed nor denied it. | https://www.b92.net/eng/news/world.php?yyyy=2022&mm=08&dd=01&nav_id=114130 | 2022-08-02T09:04:16Z | https://www.b92.net/eng/news/world.php?yyyy=2022&mm=08&dd=01&nav_id=114130 | false |
Deshaun Watson’s inadequate six-game penalty for sexual misconduct is nevertheless the NFL’s cleanest judicial process yet under Roger Goodell — and that’s a terrible thing to say. You know you’re in a snarl-up when the NFL may decide to appeal to itself over the actions of the judge it helped appoint. The skeins of illogic in this matter will only create even greater knots in Goodell’s necktie. But maybe an injustice in this instance will help prevent future extreme swings of the NFL injustice pendulum.
Watson’s punishment, levied by former judge Sue L. Robinson, is shockingly light, but at least it was issued by a neutral and independent arbiter, and that made her ruling worthy of more respect than the previous commissariat proceedings conducted by the self-interested Goodell. It’s a terrible choice, isn’t it? What’s better: to let Goodell have full, heavy-handed dominion or to seek some restraint on his power and wind up with a semi-walkaway like Watson’s? It sticks in the throat to say it, but the latter version of imperfect justice is better.
The only reason Robinson was even in position to hand down a penalty to Watson was because NFL players had come to so distrust Goodell’s motives that they insisted on some form of independent adjudication in the 2020 collective bargaining agreement. The appointment of Robinson, formerly of the U.S. District Court, was mutually agreed on by the NFL and the NFLPA, and now the league can live with her. Or, if Goodell wants to exercise his lingering role as appellant overlord to unilaterally impose a stricter penalty, he can deal with the vehement legal response — and explain in open court the difference between his treatment of Watson and Washington Commanders owner Daniel Snyder for overseeing a franchise rife with serial sexual harassment.
Robinson’s reasoning in her 16-page decision is fascinating for the fact that she finds not one but two guilty parties: In the first half she finds Watson guilty of unwanted sexual contact, and in the second half she finds the league guilty of capricious standards. What is proportional punishment? That should not have been so difficult of a question in Watson’s case — except that it was because of the league’s history of handing out six-game love taps to even its most violent offenders against women.
As Robinson pointed out, in the NFL “by far the most commonly-imposed discipline for domestic or gendered violence and sexual acts is a 6-game suspension. Only two players have been suspended for 8 games, one for multiple incidents of domestic violence and the second for the assault of multiple victims.”
Let’s be clear: The NFL proved its case that Watson had imposed unwanted sexual contact on multiple massage therapists, and he has settled 23 civil complaints. But the judge could see no precedent — as a fundamental matter of legal fairness — by which she could give Watson the full year’s suspension that the league sought, thanks to the whole lousy walk-up to this case, dating from Goodell’s decision to give Ray Rice just two games for slugging his future wife in 2014. She found the NFL’s seeking of a year-long suspension against Watson was more a response to “public outcry” than in keeping with its policy.
“Here, the NFL is attempting to impose a more dramatic shift in its culture without the benefit of fair notice to — and consistency of consequence for — those in the NFL subject to the Policy,” Robinson wrote.
Why do precedent and proportionality matter? Preet Bharara, the former U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, answered the question better than anyone in his book “Doing Justice.”
“People will regard a result as just if they regard the process leading to it as fair and if they believe the people responsible for it are fair-minded,” he wrote. “It is often said that justice not only must be done but also must be seen to be done.”
Nothing in the NFL’s player penalties in recent years has seemed fair in process or fair-minded. Goodell’s imposition of “discipline” — an infantilizing word for adult workplace conduct — has veered between politically calculating and choleric. He either issues puffs of air or decisions with the nuance of a press gang. Mostly he seems to care about shifting public opinion.
The NFL is the victim of its own terrible mistakes in previous highly charged cases. It wound up with a judge who treated the question of Watson’s penalty as she would a case in court and refused to exercise too much latitude. That is to be expected when you hire a retired federal judge. Good judges try not to wilt or bend with popular outrage — that’s not a system, frankly, any of us would want to live in. As the NFL demonstrates, it’s one that swiftly devolves into incoherence, with penalties alternately cruel and toothless.
What you want in a judge, or an arbiter of anything, is someone evenhanded, with a decent sense of previous context. Whatever you may feel about the wisdom of Robinson’s decision, she was at least operating in a context. “I am bound by standards of fairness and consistency of treatment among players similarly situated,” she wrote.
No one can feel good about the lightness of the penalty. But you might feel a great deal worse if you had to work in a world without consistency-seeking judgments. | https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2022/08/02/deshaun-watson-roger-goodell-sue-robinson/ | 2022-08-02T09:05:48Z | https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2022/08/02/deshaun-watson-roger-goodell-sue-robinson/ | true |

WASHINGTON — As the Justice Department bids to persuade a federal judge that the proposed merger of Penguin Random House and Simon & Schuster would damage the careers of some of the most popular authors, it is leaning in part on the testimony of a writer who has thrived like few others: Stephen King.
The author of "Carrie," "The Shining" and many other favorites, King has willingly — even eagerly — placed himself in opposition to Simon & Schuster, his longtime publisher. He was not chosen by the government just for his fame, but for his public criticism of the $2.2 billion deal announced in late 2021, joining two of the world's biggest publishers into what rival CEO Michael Pietsch of Hachette Book Group has called a "gigantically prominent" entity.
"The more the publishers consolidate, the harder it is for indie publishers to survive," King tweeted last year.
One of the few widely recognizable authors, known for his modest-sized glasses and gaunt features, King is expected to take the witness stand Tuesday, the second day of a federal antitrust trial anticipated last two to three weeks.
He may not have the business knowledge of Pietsch, the DOJ's first witness, but he has been a published novelist for nearly 50 years and knows well how much the industry has changed: Some of his own former publishers were acquired by larger companies. "Carrie," for instance, was published by Doubleday, which in 2009 merged with Knopf Publishing Group, and now is part of Penguin Random House. Another former King publisher, Viking Press, was a Penguin imprint that joined Penguin Random House when Penguin and Random House merged in 2013.
King's affinity for smaller publishers is personal. Even while continuing to publish with the Simon & Schuster imprint Scribner, he has written thrillers for the independent Hard Case Crime. Years ago, the publisher asked him to contribute a blurb, but King instead offered to write a novel for them, "The Colorado Kid," released in 2005.
"Inside I was turning cartwheels," Hard Case co-founder Charles Ardai would remember thinking when King contacted him.
King himself would likely benefit from the Penguin Random House-Simon & Schuster deal, but he has a history of favoring other priorities beyond his material well-being. He has long been a critic of tax cuts for the rich, even as "the rich" surely includes Stephen King, and has openly called for the government to raise his taxes.
"In America, we should all have to pay our fair share," he wrote for The Daily Beast in 2012.
On Monday, attorneys for the two sides offered contrasting views of the book industry. Government attorney John Read invoked a dangerously narrow market, ruled tightly by the "Big Five"— Penguin Random House, Simon & Schuster, HarperCollins Publishing, Macmillan and Hachette — with little chance for smaller or startup publishers to break through.
Attorney Daniel Petrocelli argued for the defense that the industry was actually diverse, profitable and open to newcomers. Publishing means not just the Big Five, but also such medium-size companies as W.W. Norton & Co. and Grove Atlantic. The merger, he contended, would in no way upend the ambitions so many hold for literary success.
"Every book starts out as an anticipated bestseller in the gleam of an author's or an editor's eye," he said.

Jim Fitton: Jailed British geologist reunited with family
- Published
A geologist who was jailed in Iraq has been reunited with his family following his release.
Jim Fitton, 66, from Somerset, was accused of trying to remove artefacts from the country and was jailed for 15 years in June.
The court has since overturned his conviction and he flew to Malaysia to be reunited with his family on Friday.
Mr Fitton's daughter Leila Tasker, from Bath, said the ordeal had been "worse than a nightmare".
The retired geologist was arrested at Baghdad airport on 20 March, charged under a 2002 law against "intentionally taking or trying to take out of Iraq an antiquity", which carries the maximum sentence of the death penalty.
He had collected 12 stones and shards of broken pottery during a geology and archaeology tour and always insisted he did not know he was breaking Iraqi laws.
An appeal was made and the court overturned his conviction allowing him to go free.
Mr Fitton, originally from Bath, lives in Malaysia with his wife Sarijah, and was reunited with his family at Kuala Lumpur International Airport on Friday.
"As soon as we saw him it was such a relief," said his daughter Leila.
"It was a real nightmare and I'm very close to my dad.
"I really missed him. It impacted me a lot and I was stressed every day.
"It was a nightmare, worse than a nightmare. I couldn't really sleep, I feel like I've not slept for months," she added.
Mr Fitton's son-in-law Sam Tasker said they were happy but there remained a feeling of disbelief.
"I don't think he quite believed it either," he said.
"Obviously it's a huge kind of release of four months' worth of the most stress you've ever experienced in your life.
"There's no kind of playbook in these situations. No-one tells you what to do," he added.
Wera Hobhouse, Liberal Democrat MP for Bath, said she was glad to see an end to the "very stressful" saga for the family.
"I believe that if they hadn't have gone public we wouldn't have had the outcome that we have today," she said.

SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT
Special Weather Statement
National Weather Service Brownsville TX
337 AM CDT Tue Aug 2 2022
...CONDITIONS MORE FAVORABLE FOR WILDFIRES TODAY...
A continuation of little to no rainfall across Deep South Texas
and the Rio Grande Valley for the past several weeks has produced
widespread Moderate Drought conditions with abundant very dry to
dead grasses and brush. Additionally, breezy winds and lowered
relative humidity percentages will occur today, especially this
afternoon. These factors will combine to create conditions more
favorable for wildfires.
Outdoor activities that could inadvertently cause wildfires today
are discouraged. These activities include burning trash, using
welding or grinding equipment near dry grass, brush, and weeds,
and driving or parking vehicles offroad in dead vegetation. Do not
throw cigarette butts on the ground and do not allow safety chains
to drag on roads if you are towing a trailer.
Finally, be sure to report wildfires quickly to your local fire
department or law enforcement office.

Strong rain continued to fall early Tuesday in Kentucky, as officials and first responders worked to find perhaps hundreds of people who were reported missing amid floods that have killed at least 37.
Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear on Monday evening warned that a “series of complex storms” were moving overnight through counties already ravaged by flooding.
“The biggest concern is overnight flooding,” he said on Twitter. “Please, if you are in an area that has suffered flooding seek shelter on higher ground. Be weather-aware and stay safe.”
The National Weather Service's Weather Prediction Center early on Tuesday warned of flash floods throughout Kentucky, along with areas in Tennessee, Virginia, Illinois and Indiana.
The Kentucky governor's office said Beshear on Tuesday would visit three eastern counties hit by the flooding. He was expected to meet with local officials, volunteers and families.
At least 37 people were reported dead as of Monday, Beshear said. He had said earlier in the day that there were “hundreds of unaccounted for people, minimum," but cautioned that the number wasn't exact.
Almost 600 people had been rescued from flooded areas by Monday, with thousands more expected to lose their homes, the governor's office said.
The National Weather Service issued a new flash flood warning for "most" of Kentucky at about 2:30 a.m. local time. South-central Illinois and far southern Indiana were also expected to get heavy rains that could result in flash flooding, the center said.
Some areas in Kentucky had seen from 4 to 8 inches of rain in six hours prior to 2 a.m., the center said.
"Instances of flash flooding are likely to continue and expand through dawn, possibly becoming significant to extreme locally near the IL/IN/KY border region," the center said.
Beshear’s office said the governor will brief media at the Capitol at 8 a.m. local time, offering details on the state’s response.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Ascend Elements Inc. will invest $310 million in a new Kentucky plant, creating 250 full-time jobs in Christian County.

To check if you’ve won anything, you can visit the NS&I Premium Bonds prize checker.
What are Premium Bonds?
Premium Bonds are an investment product issued by National Savings and Investment (NS&I). Unlike other investments, where you earn interest or a regular dividend income, you are entered into a monthly prize draw where you can win between £25 and £1 million tax free.
A minimum of £25 is required to buy Premium Bonds and you must be aged at least 16 to purchase them, however you can buy them on behalf of your child, grandchild or great-grandchild as an investment in their future.
The maximum level of holding for Premium Bonds is £50,000.
Premium Bonds though are not recommended as a means of regular income, guarantee returns or if you have concerns over the impact of inflation on your savings.
You can read all the terms and conditions regarding Premium Bonds over at the National Savings and Investment website.
How does the Premium Bonds prize draw work?
A unique bond number is issued for every £1 invested, so a £100 investment in premium bonds would equate to 100 bond numbers, each with a chance to win after being held for a full month.
Every month Bond holders, whose numbers are generated at random by NS&I’s random-number generator, ERNIE, can win prizes from £25 to £1 million and are all tax-free.
How do I check if I’ve won?
You don’t have to do anything else aside from check if your issued bond number is a winner by checking over at the National Savings and Investment website.
Have there been any millionaires from Liverpool since the prize draw started?
There have been, but not since 2017.
The winning bond from the Liverpool resident was £5,000 which netted them £1 million. It was a double celebration for the Liverpool winner as they bought the bond on the date of their tenth anniversary.
At the time, Retail Director for NS&I Jill Waters stated that “It’s been a while since a Liverpool resident has won the jackpot, and it’s particularly exciting that we can celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Bond holder’s purchase.”
It’s been a while since the last big win - perhaps lady luck will return to Liverpool sooner rather than later? | https://www.liverpoolworld.uk/news/premium-bonds-august-winners-liverpool-3790290 | 2022-08-02T09:43:49Z | https://www.liverpoolworld.uk/news/premium-bonds-august-winners-liverpool-3790290 | false |

LONDON (AP) — BP’s earnings tripled in the second quarter as the British energy giant profited from oil and natural gas prices that soared after Russia invaded Ukraine.
London-based BP said Tuesday that underlying replacement cost profit, which excludes one-time items and fluctuations in the value of inventories, jumped to $8.45 billion from $2.80 billion in the same period a year earlier.
The soaring earnings allowed BP to return billions of dollars to shareholders, with the company boosting its dividend by 10% and announcing that it would buy back $3.5 billion in shares. BP said it expects to increase dividends by about 4% annually through 2025.
But the good news for BP shareholders was bad news for consumers as soaring energy prices contribute to the cost-of-living crisis in Britain and around the world.
In the United Kingdom, where inflation reached a 40-year high of 9.4% in June, the government has announced a 25% windfall profits tax on the earnings of oil and gas companies that come from British operations.
The opposition Labour Party criticized the government for failing to use more of the revenue from the new tax to help consumers.
“People are worried sick about energy prices rising again in the autumn, but yet again we see eye-watering profits for oil and gas producers,” Rachel Reeves, the party’s spokeswoman on treasury issues, said in a statement. “Labour argued for months for a windfall tax on these companies to help bring bills down, but when the Tories finally U-turned they decided to hand billions of pounds back to producers in tax breaks.”
BP said the windfall profits tax would increase the headline tax rate on its North Sea operations to 65% from 40%. The company said it plans to set aside $800 million to cover the tax increase.
BP said it received an average of $105.50 per barrel for its oil in the second quarter, up 71% from a year earlier. Gas more than doubled to $8.42 per thousand cubic feet.

YAKIMA, Wash., Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Consumers have yet another reason to choose the Pink Lady® brand when shopping for apples. For the first time in the global brand's history, the beloved fruit was named Best Apple in the 2022 Healthy Snack Awards from Good Housekeeping in the Powerhouse Produce category. The awards are based on a lengthy testing process in which the registered dieticians and culinary pros at the Good Housekeeping Nutrition Lab pore over the nutrition facts, ingredient lists and flavor profiles of hundreds of snacks. All products must meet specific criteria to qualify and are subject to additional consumer testing and real-life analysis. The result is this article of 2022 winners, where Good Housekeeping notes that testers found the flavor of Pink Lady® "superior to that of other apples, saying it was 'crisp, refreshing and incredibly tasty."
Stefani Sassos, MS, RDN CDN and Deputy Nutrition Director for Good Housekeeping said, "The incredible flavor profile and impressive nutrition of Pink Lady® apples were some of the many reasons why the fruit stood out to our testers and judges. They make for an easy, nutrient dense snack at any time of day that provides a family-friendly snacking solution too."
To celebrate earning this impressive accolade, Pink Lady® apples are serving up new snack-spiration this month with recipes developed in partnership with lifestyle experts. The recipes will be shared with the growing community of Pink Lady® apple fans that are connected to the brand through its digital platforms.
"As a marketer and a shopper, it's incredible to know that over 5,300 product samples and nearly 50,000 data points were analyzed for the Good Housekeeping Nutrition Lab to choose the Healthy Snack Award winners," said Kathryn Grandy, Chief Marketing Officer of Pink Lady® America. "With so many options available, this annual roundup is hugely valuable for consumers looking for brands they can trust," she added. "We are ecstatic that Pink Lady® apples are a 2022 winner and are honored to see our brand next to the market's most innovative and delicious snacks."
Brought to the United States over 25 years ago, Pink Lady® brand apples are grown in Washington State, and other prime farming regions across the country. It is the first apple to blossom and the last to be harvested with each one soaking up 200 days of sunshine. As the 6th most popular variety on the market, Pink Lady® apples are often called out by name in recipes developed by noted chefs and bakers. Available in all seasons, Pink Lady® apples are known for their sweet and tart flavor and signature rosy color. Pink Lady® apples are perfect for snacking as well as baking and even cocktail making.

Five states hold primaries Tuesday: Arizona, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri and Washington.
In Washington, two Republicans who voted to impeach then-President Donald Trump in the wake of the Capitol insurrection are aiming to fend off primary opponents.
Washington's top-two primary system puts all candidates on one ballot and advances the top two vote-getters to the general election, regardless of party.
Washington is mostly an all-mail-voting state, and polls close at 8 p.m. PT, or 11 p.m. ET.

August is a busy month for midterm election primaries, with Arizona, Michigan, Missouri, Kansas and Washington starting off the calendar on Tuesday.
We're keeping an eye on races where former President Donald Trump's picks are in play, and contests where he's targeted Republicans who voted to impeach him.
We're watching the number of 2020 election deniers who are on the ballot Tuesday, including two GOP candidates running for secretary of state in Arizona, which President Biden narrowly won in the last election.
And in Kansas, abortion rights are on the ballot — the first test of voter sentiment since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
Here's a breakdown of what to watch for.
Abortion in the spotlight
All eyes are on Kansas, where voters will decide whether to change the state constitution to potentially allow the legislature to further restrict or ban abortion. As of now, abortion is considered a fundamental right in the state, thanks to a 2019 Kansas Supreme Court ruling.
And earlier this summer in Michigan, Republicans in the state legislature introduced a measure that would enforce an abortion ban from 1931. Incumbent Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has vowed not to let that happen and has made the issue a signature part of her campaign for reelection, which is shaping up to be a tight race.
On the Republican side, candidates include Tudor Dixon, a businesswoman and former TV commentator, chiropractor Garrett Soldano and businessman Kevin Rinke. Dixon, who is backed by former U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and — since this past weekend — Trump, has had a lead in recent polling.
Where there are notable Trump-aligned candidates and election deniers
Arizona: In the GOP gubernatorial primary Trump has backed Kari Lake, a former television host who has spread lies about the 2020 election, while other Republicans — including former Vice President Mike Pence and current Gov. Doug Ducey — have endorsed her main opponent, Karrin Taylor Robson.
On the Senate side in Arizona, Trump's pick is Blake Masters, former chief operating officer of the investment firm Thiel Capital. Masters' campaign has been boosted by millions of dollars from Peter Thiel, his longtime friend and boss. Masters is in the race alongside businessman Jim Lamon, state Attorney General Mark Brnovich and Michael McGuire, a retired National Guard major general. The GOP winner will then move to a highly contested race against incumbent Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly.
Both Lake and Masters appear to have healthy leads in recent polling.
Trump has also endorsed state Rep. Mark Finchem, who has denied the results of the 2020 election and sought to overturn it. He's now running to oversee voting in Arizona. He's one of two election deniers on the Republican ballot for secretary of state.
Missouri: Trump opted not to make a last-minute endorsement in the race for Missouri's open U.S. Senate seat, instead backing "ERIC" — a nod at two of the leading candidates, state Attorney General Eric Schmitt and former Gov. Eric Greitens. Many Republicans have been concerned that the controversial Greitens would win the nomination, complicating GOP hopes of holding on to what's considered a safe seat.
Kansas: In Kansas, the open race for attorney general includes Kris Kobach, a former secretary of state who unsuccessfully ran for governor in 2018. Trump has backed Kobach, who is a longtime ally of the former president. Also in the Republican field are candidates Tony Mattivi, a former federal prosecutor, and state Sen. Kellie Warren. Chris Mann, a former prosecutor and police officer, is unopposed on the Democratic side.
Kobach's failed gubernatorial candidacy in 2018 meant the state got a Democratic governor with Laura Kelly. Kelly is now running for reelection in a race that's considered a toss-up. She's facing a primary challenge from accountant Rich Karnowski in her own party. And on the Republican side, Trump has endorsed the state's current attorney general, Derek Schmidt, for the seat.
Where GOP candidates who voted against Trump face a challenge
Ten House Republicans voted to impeach Trump after the Jan. 6 insurrection. Three are on the ballot Tuesday — and facing tough battles to get reelected.
In Washington's 3rd Congressional District, Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler is being challenged from the right by Joe Kent, a former member of the U.S. Army Special Forces, and Heidi St. John, a podcaster and homeschool advocate. Trump has backed Kent, who also has falsely said the 2020 election was stolen.
At a rally last week, Trump said of Herrera Beutler, "She voted for the radical Democrats' second impeachment hoax where the Republicans stood up tall for me but she didn't."
Herrera Beutler, for her part, has been running a campaign as a more "independent" candidate.
In the state's 4th District, Rep. Dan Newhouse has a similar fight. He's facing challengers including the Trump-endorsed Loren Culp, a former town chief of police, who ran for governor in 2020 and would not concede following his loss.
And rounding out the three in Michigan's 3rd Congressional District is Rep. Peter Meijer, who is facing a challenge from Trump pick John Gibbs, a former Trump administration official. Democrats have controversially meddled in the race, promoting Gibbs' conservative credentials under the belief that he'd be easier to beat in one of Democrats' top pickup opportunities.

Robber, 50, who stole £3,000 in series of betting shop raids by using WALKING STICK in carrier bag that he claimed was a shotgun is jailed for 10 years after he was caught dodging train fare
- Brett Mullan, 50, used a collapsible walking stick to pretend he had a shotgun
- He marched into five bookmakers and demanded they handed him their cash
- Brazen crook didn't bother with getaway car and used the train to get to targets
- But he was snared after dodging a ticket fare and giving inspect his real name
- Police were then able to find and trace his movements around all five robberies
A crook has been jailed for ten years after carrying out a series of armed robberies using his walking stick to pretend he had a gun.
Brett Mullan, 50, folded up his collapsible walking aid and wrapped it in a plastic bag to stage the ambitious south London heists.
Mullan, from Gravesend, targeted bookmakers during a month-long spree in April and made off with thousands of pounds.
But he was snared over his habit of brazenly catching the train to where he was going to rob.
A railway revenue ticket inspector caught him fare dodging on his way to his third crime on April 13 and he gave his real name.
Police - who had pieced together the offender was using trains - discovered his identity through the dodge and they amassed CCTV of him going to his crimes.

Mullen, from Gravesend marched into five bookmakers and used stick (circled) to do robberies
Mullan, 50, used a collapsible stick like this one and wrapped it in a bag to look like a shotgun
They pounced as he was leaving his home on April 25 and charged him with robberies in Lee, Norwood, Sutton and Crayford between Monday, 4 April and Sunday, 24 April.
Inside his home they found the walking stick he had used to carry out the five crimes, by pretending it was a shotgun.
Yesterday he was sentenced to ten years in jail at Snaresbrook Crown Court.
Police amassed CCTV of Mullan going in and out of trains on his way to the five robberies
He had previously pleaded guilty to five counts of robbery and five counts of being in possession of an imitation firearm at Barkingside Magistrates' Court on April 26.
During his crime spree he managed to take a total of £2,780 over the course of the robberies.
Detective Constable Carl Stallabras, from the Met's Flying Squad, said: 'Mullan terrified members of the public and staff at the bookmakers who were going about their normal lives when he demanded cash and made threats of serious violence. Those people feared for their lives.
'But a simple mistake on his way to the second offence was all we needed to track him down, and from there the wealth of evidence we obtained left him no choice but to plead guilty.
'Tackling violent crime in all its forms is our top priority, and the Met is determined to reduce the number of robberies. If you are targeted by robbers you can give us the best chance of catching them by contacting us as soon as possible. Dial 999.' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11072141/Serial-robber-50-jailed-ten-years-holding-bookmakers-WALKING-STICK.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | 2022-08-02T10:06:02Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11072141/Serial-robber-50-jailed-ten-years-holding-bookmakers-WALKING-STICK.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | false |
Lee Ryan was reportedly arrested after he had an explosive outburst on a flight to London from Glasgow on Sunday afternoon.
The 39 year old is said to have kicked off during a flight into London City Airport after the cabin crew refused to serve him alcohol.
Lee went on to have a foul-mouthed rant on the British Airways plane whilst refusing to return to his seat, and “turned the air blue”, passengers have stated.
The Blue singer’s disruptive behaviour was thought to have occurred for 20 minutes mid-flight and led to him being arrested for suspicion of public order offences.
The Met Office confirmed an arrest following the Sunday flight. They told The Mirror: “At around 1640hrs on Sunday, 31 July, officers met a flight that had arrived at London City Airport from Glasgow.
"A 39-year-old man was arrested for a public order offence. He was taken into custody at an east London police station and was released under investigation the following day."
OK! have contacted Lee's representatives for comment.
One passenger on the London-bound flight described Lee’s behaviour as “crazy” at the time, as they told The Sun: “Never mind singing with Blue, he turned the air blue with his language.
"He became aggressive with the air hostesses once it became clear he wouldn’t get given alcohol.
"At one point he left his seat and started walking up and down the aisle despite being told to sit down — he even ran behind the cabin crew curtains. It was crazy behaviour."
Lee joined boyband Blue in 2000, along with members Duncan James, Simon Webbe and Anthony Costa and the foursome went on to have huge success in their music career.
The former popstar is married to X Factor star Verity Paris and the pair share a daughter, who they welcomed last year. Lee also has daughter Bluebell, 13, and son Rayn, 12, from previous relationships.
Lee announced that he had married longtime girlfriend Verity, 31, in an intimate ceremony in March.
"I met someone finally who loves and supports me in everything I do,” he said at the time.
"Verity is a beautiful, strong and loving woman who I treasure, and I’m a lucky man to have such a wonderful mother for my child, and now wife in her.
"I’ve never been more calm and grounded and I have Verity to thank for that. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been in my life because of the wonderful family life I now have."

By now, everyone knows someone who’s had COVID-19 — even if they’ve somehow managed to escape it themselves — and an increasing number of people are getting infected a second time.
The vast majority of those infections will not cause severe disease or death. Most people have some immunity, even against the newer versions of the omicron variant, whether the result of vaccination, a prior infection, or both.
But that’s no reason to give up on precautions entirely, infectious disease experts say. A person with a mild case can still pass it on to someone who is more vulnerable. And long COVID remains poorly understood.
As COVID becomes a fixture of American life, here’s what infectious disease experts say about the future.
How often will I get COVID in the future?
As of mid-July, the average time between infections is about nine months, according to a nationwide sample from Helix, a genetic testing company in San Mateo, Calif.
For now, that trend seems to be moving in the right direction. In April, the average time between infections was less than eight months, Helix reported.
What the future looks like is unclear, but scientists have looked for clues in the four coronaviruses that cause the common cold. In one such study, researchers found that people often went a year between infections with one of those viruses — but in some cases, as little as six months.
In the long term, the coronavirus that causes COVID may infect people as often as two to three times a year, epidemiologist Michael Mina told the New York Times.
But as with other respiratory viruses, some of those infections will be so mild as to go unnoticed, Drew University biologist Brianne Barker said.
Will COVID become like the common cold?
COVID is a cousin of the coronaviruses that cause colds, some of which have been circulating in human populations for centuries. Still, it isn’t clear whether COVID will end up like them. For now, it is far more deadly than the other coronaviruses, and it seems to be more transmissible — though the others have not been subjected to anywhere near the same degree of study.
“Understanding the depth of immune response to those viruses is limited,” said E. John Wherry, director of the University of Pennsylvania’s Institute for Immunology. “We don’t know what they first looked like when they entered the human population.”
The hope is that this coronavirus will become as benign as its common-cold cousins, through a combination of vaccination and immunity that lingers from prior infection. But riskier variants could yet emerge.

Is BA.5 really more transmissible?
The omicron variant has dominated the COVID landscape for months in the United States, most recently in the form of a subvariant called BA.5.
BA.5 is generally thought to be more transmissible than its predecessors. But just how much, and why, is not fully understood, said Drew’s Barker, who studies the immune response to viruses.
Some of BA.5′s edge may come from evading the immunity that people have from vaccination or past infection. Some might be the result of mutations that enable it to thrive in other ways, say, by making more copies of itself so that infected people are more likely to pass it on.
» READ MORE: Why BA.5 is not a super-virus, and how the vaccines are still the best option against COVID
Do breakthrough infections mean the vaccines have lost their punch?
Breakthrough infections and reinfection may seem discouraging, but that’s no reason to lose confidence in the vaccines.
The vaccines still reduce the risk of infection, especially in people who’ve gotten one of the shots recently. In a new study JAMA Network Open, Rhode Island residents who had been vaccinated after being infected were half as likely to become infected again, relative to people who had not been vaccinated.
The vaccines also reduce the chance that an infected person will pass on the disease, because a vaccinated person “sheds” smaller amounts of virus and recovers more quickly than the unvaccinated, according to another study in the same journal.
Most important: even with the newer COVID variants, the vaccines still protect against severe disease.
Yet COVID variants may continue to evolve to be more effective at getting through the body’s initial line of immune defense. For now, that likely means regular booster shots will be recommended, Penn’s Wherry said.
Scientists also are working on “pan-coronavirus” vaccines, which could protect against future variants of this coronavirus and against others — even viruses that have yet to surface, or make the jump from animals to humans.
If I’m eligible for a booster, should I get it now or wait for the omicron version this fall?
Vaccine makers have told U.S. health officials that by mid-September, they can deliver a booster shot tailored to protect against various versions of omicron variant, the New York Times reported last week.
So it might make sense to wait until then for a booster shot, said Shane Crotty, a virologist at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology.
“You can’t get a vaccine shot Aug. 1 and get another vaccine shot Sept. 15 and expect the second shot to do anything,” he told the media outlet. “You’ve got so much antibody around, if you get another dose, it won’t do anything.”
Still, the original vaccines remain protective against severe disease and death. If you haven’t gotten one yet, physicians urge rolling up your sleeve as soon as possible. | https://www.inquirer.com/health/coronavirus/omicron-ba5-covid-coronavirus-20220802.html | 2022-08-02T10:13:45Z | https://www.inquirer.com/health/coronavirus/omicron-ba5-covid-coronavirus-20220802.html | true |

Stewartby lake death: Mother pays tribute to teenager
- Published
The mother of a teenager who died after getting into difficulty in a lake has paid tribute to him.
Kyron Hibbert, 13, was playing in the lake at Stewartby, Bedfordshire, with friends at about 18:45 BST on Friday when he disappeared under the surface of the water.
Emergency services were called and Kyron's body was recovered in the early hours of Saturday.
Kyron's mother said her son was a "beautiful, happy and healthy boy".
"You were just growing and being independent, but now you are gone so soon," she said.
"We will love and miss you. Until we see you again, my son. God bless you."
Det Con Sam Ostley, from Bedfordshire Police, said: "This is a truly tragic case which has had a devastating impact on Kyron's family and friends.
"It is an awful reminder of just how dangerous swimming in open water can be - through the shock of the cold, or currents or objects which may be under the surface.
"We would urge people to stick to designated swimming areas which are supervised by lifeguards.
"Our thoughts remain with Kyron's family and we would ask for people to respect their privacy at this difficult time."

BOSTON (AP) — A Massachusetts bill aimed at recasting the state’s gun laws in the wake of last month’s Supreme Court ruling making it harder for states to limit access to firearms was approved by lawmakers Monday.
Democratic leaders — who have pledged to draft tougher legislation when they come back into formal session next year — said the bill would bring state law in line with the high court ruling that found a New York law restricting carrying licenses, similar to Massachusetts law, was unconstitutional.
Under the New York law, residents needed to show proper cause, or an actual need, to carry a concealed handgun in public for self-defense.
Massachusetts’ law had said those deemed suitable could get a license to carry if they show “good reason to fear injury” to themselves or their property “or for any other reason,” including “for use in sport or target practice only.”
The bill would strike much of the language, which the court ruling has effectively deemed unconstitutional.
The language was shipped to Republican Gov. Charlie Baker early Monday after lawmakers blew past a midnight deadline when they were supposed to end their formal session.
The measure would require a licensing authority, like a law enforcement official, to conduct a personal interview with anyone seeking an initial application for a license to carry a firearm.
It would also ban from getting a gun license anyone subject to “a permanent or temporary harassment prevention order” or who “may create a risk to public safety or a risk of danger to self or others.”
Following the ruling, Democratic Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey, who is running for governor, said police chiefs should no longer deny or impose restrictions on licenses to carry a gun just because the applicant doesn’t have a “good reason” to carry,
Jim Wallace, executive director of the Gun Owners’ Action League, said lawmakers failed to reach out to his organization before drafting the bill.
“It would have been nice if they had given the courtesy of a phone call so we could have consulted with them,” he said Monday. “They didn’t include the stakeholders in any of this.”
Baker said last week that he’d talked to Democratic leaders and hoped to have a bill he can sign.
“It’s certainly my hope we get something that we can use to both validate the laws we already have here in the commonwealth but also to a couple other things we need to do to comply with what the federal Supreme Court did,” he said. | https://www.fox16.com/news/national/bill-aims-to-bring-state-gun-laws-in-line-with-supreme-court/ | 2022-08-02T10:17:40Z | https://www.fox16.com/news/national/bill-aims-to-bring-state-gun-laws-in-line-with-supreme-court/ | false |
West Midlands mayor Andy Street backs Liz Truss for prime minister
- Published
West Midlands mayor Andy Street has backed Liz Truss for Conservative leader and prime minister.
Writing in the Telegraph, Mr Street said Ms Truss had a "bold, optimistic vision" for the country.
The Conservative mayor added he had asked himself which of the two remaining contenders would "deliver better outcomes" for the West Midlands.
Ms Truss's leadership rival Rishi Sunak has said he had a "radical" tax vision if he became prime minister.
In announcing his latest tax policy, Mr Sunak emphasised the need to control inflation before cutting taxes, adding that tax cuts now would make the situation worse and "endanger people's mortgages".
In his article, Mr Street said he had several reasons for making his choice and had held discussions with both candidates.
Backing Ms Truss, he said she would "inject dynamism into our economy and create more high quality, well-paid jobs".
Mr Street added he wanted a prime minister "utterly committed" to delivering "levelling up" and he believed Ms Truss would be that person.
He said he wanted to see a devolution deal delivered for the West Midlands "to make a tangible difference to people's lives".
In his article in the Telegraph, he said he believed she would cut the country's dependence on fossil fuels and also stand up for the country's status in the world.
"As she has shown while facing down Vladimir Putin, Liz Truss is not afraid to stand up for our values," he wrote.
MPs have revealed who they were supporting in the leadership contest, with former leadership candidate Penny Mordaunt announcing her backing for Ms Truss on Monday.
Analysis by West Midlands political editor Elizabeth Glinka
On the surface this endorsement may not appear the natural choice for the Mayor of the West Midlands.
The former John Lewis boss is widely viewed as a socially liberal pragmatist who's often benefitted from the perception he's not really that political at all.
So aligning himself with the candidate of the Tory right, including Johnson loyalists like Nadine Dorries, may raise eyebrows - but everyone wants to back a winner, especially a pragmatist.
The key factor here starts with L and ends with Up. Mr Street wants a PM committed to English devolution with the cash to back it up.
By instinct he may sit closer to Rishi Sunak's 'sensible' fiscal responsibility, but as Mayor he wants a PM who keeps the funding flowing.

CHICAGO (AP) — Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones arrived at a Texas courthouse for his defamation trial for calling the Sandy Hook Elementary School attack a hoax with the words “Save the 1st” scrawled on tape covering his mouth.
Although Jones portrays the lawsuit against him as an assault on the First Amendment, the parents who sued him say his statements were so malicious and obviously false that they fell well outside the bounds of speech protected by the constitutional clause.
The ongoing trial in Austin, which is where Jones’ far-right Infowars website and its parent company are based, stems from a 2018 lawsuit brought by Neil Heslin and Scarlett Lewis, whose 6-year-old son was killed in the 2012 attack along with 19 other first-graders and six educators.
Jones is expected to testify Tuesday in his own defense.
Here’s a look at how the case relates to the First Amendment:
ARE ALL DEFAMATION LAWSUITS FIRST AMENDMENT CASES?
They are. Defamation laws evolved through decades of U.S. Supreme Court rulings on what is and isn’t protected speech.
Typically, the first question jurors answer at trials is whether the speech qualifies as unprotected defamation. If it does, they address the question of damages.
Jones’ trial largely skipped the first question and went straight to the second. From the start, it focused not on whether Jones must pay damages, but how much.
WHY IS HIS TRIAL DIFFERENT?
Jones seemed to sabotage his own chance to fully argue that his speech was protected by not complying with orders to hand over critical evidence, such as emails, which the parents hoped would prove he knew all along that his statements were false.
That led exasperated Judge Maya Guerra Gamble to enter a rare default judgment, declaring the parents winners before the trial even began.
Judges in other lawsuits against Jones have issued similar rulings.
“I don’t know why they didn’t cooperate,” said Stephen D. Solomon, a founding editor of New York University’s First Amendment Watch. “It is just really peculiar. … It’s so odd to not even give yourself the chance to defend yourself.”
It might suggest Jones knew certain evidence would doom his defense.
“It is reasonable to presume that (Jones) and his team did not think they had a viable defense … or they would have complied,” said Barry Covert, a Buffalo, New York, First Amendment lawyer.
HAVE BOTH SIDES REFERRED TO THE FIRST AMENDMENT?
Yes. During opening statements last week, plaintiffs’ lawyer Mark Bankston told jurors it doesn’t protect defamatory speech.
“Speech is free,” he said, “but lies you have to pay for.”
Jones’ lawyer Andino Reynal said the case is crucial to free speech.
And Jones made similar arguments in a deposition.
“If questioning public events and free speech is banned because it might hurt somebody’s feelings, we are not in America anymore,” he said.
Jones, who had said actors staged the shooting as a pretext to strengthen gun control, later acknowledged it occurred.
WHAT ARE KEY ELEMENTS OF DEFAMATION?
Defamation must involve someone making a false statement of fact publicly — typically via the media — and purporting that it’s true. An opinion can’t be defamatory. The statement also must have done actual damage to someone’s reputation.
The parents suing Jones say his lies about their child’s death harmed their reputations and led to death threats from Jones’ followers.
IS IT EASIER FOR NON-PUBLIC FIGURES TO PROVE DEFAMATION?
Yes. They must merely show a false statement was made carelessly.
In New York Times v. Sullivan in 1964, the Supreme Court said the bar for public figures must be higher because scrutiny of them is so vital to democracy. They must prove “actual malice,” that a false statement was made “with knowledge that it was false or with reckless disregard of whether it was false or not.”
ARE THE PARENTS PUBLIC FIGURES?
Their lawyers say they clearly aren’t in the category of politicians or celebrities who stepped voluntarily into the public arena.
The high court, however, has said those who temporarily enter public debates can become temporary public figures.
Jones argues that Heslin did just that, entering the national debate over guns by advocating for tougher gun laws on TV and before Congress.
WHAT DAMAGES ARE BEING SOUGHT?
The plaintiffs are seeking $150 million for emotional distress, as well as reputational and punitive damages.
Reynal told jurors that his client has been punished enough, losing millions of dollars being booted off major social media platforms.
He asked them to award the plaintiffs $1.
CAN FIRST AMENDMENT ISSUES INFLUENCE THE TRIAL’S OUTCOME?
Indirectly, yes.
Jones can’t argue that he’s not liable for damages on the grounds that his speech was protected. The judge already ruled he is liable. But as a way to limit damages, his lawyers can argue that his speech was protected.
“Jurors could say (Jones’ defamatory statements) is actually something we don’t want to punish very hard,” said Kevin Goldberg, a First Amendment specialist at the Maryland-based Freedom Forum.
COULD JONES HAVE WON IF THE TRIAL WAS ALL ABOUT FREE SPEECH?
He could have contended that his statements were hyperbolic opinion — that wild, non-factual exaggeration is his schtick.
But it would have been tough to persuade jurors that he was merely riffing and opining.
“It was a verifiable fact the massacre occurred at Sandy Hook,” said Solomon. “That’s not opinion. It is a fact.” Even if the parents were deemed public figures, imposing the higher standard, “I think Alex Jones would still lose,” he said.
But Covert said defamation is always a challenge to prove.
“I wouldn’t discount the possibility Jones could have prevailed,” he said. “Trying to speculate what a jury would find is always a fool’s errand.”
MIGHT THE SUPREME COURT BE SYMPATHETIC TO ANY JONES APPEAL?
Conservatives and liberal justices have found that some deeply offensive speech is protected.
In 2011, the high court voted 8-to-1 to overturn a verdict against the Kansas-based Westboro Baptist Church for picketing military funerals with signs declaring that God hates the U.S. for tolerating homosexuality.
“As a Nation we have chosen … to protect even hurtful speech … to ensure that we do not stifle public debate,” the ruling said.
But it and the Jones case have key differences.
“The were both extreme, outrageous, shocking, deplorable. But the Westboro Baptist Church was also manifestly political and not defamatory … not about any one person’s reputation” Goldberg said.
He added: “I’d be shocked if (Jones’) case ever ended up in the Supreme Court.”

Slimbridge Wetland Centre breeds Baer's pochard ducklings
- Published
A pair of critically-endangered birds have hatched at a wildlife reserve.
Slimbridge Wetland Centre has announced that it welcomed two Baer's pochard ducklings in June.
It is the first time that wildlife haven in Gloucestershire has successfully bred the rare birds.
Phoebe Vaughan, Deputy Living Collections Manager at the centre, said: "When you make habitat, they will come, they will breed, and they will thrive!"
She added: "This is such a valuable message to our visitors and future generations."
The species was once common across Eastern Asia, but their population is rapidly declining.
In 2012, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) listed Baer's pochards as critically endangered.
It is estimated that there are fewer than 1,000 of the birds left in the wild in countries such as China, Japan and Vietnam.
Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust's (WWT) Conservation Breeding Unit used Baer's pochard and Ferruginous ducks to trial equipment that was eventually used for the pochard soft release at Lake Sofia in Madagascar.
The Baer's were helpful to assess the suitability of the equipment, and in turn, the WWT were able to successfully raise their species profile.
Ms Vaughan said: "The Baer's pochard is the most recent in a long list of 'little brown ducks' to need our help and understanding in recent decades.
"The aviculture team is thrilled to be able to do our bit for raising the awareness of both the Baer's pochard, and also incidentally the Madagascar pochard, to which this little family are representing for us so beautifully."
The Living Collection team at Slimbridge have a history of breeding rare species.
Visitors to the centre can see the Baer's pochard ducklings at the Mission Possible exhibit.

The state-run medical center in the nearby city of Sabha received at least 50 injured people, Halima al-Mahri, a spokeswoman for the center. She urged authorities to help evacuate the injured to the capital of Tripoli for treatment.
The center posted footage, including graphic images, of people at an emergency ward receiving treatment for their burn injuries.

Hinkley B: Generations of workers mark nuclear plant's shutdown
- Published
Workers at the Hinkley B nuclear power site have been marking the plant's closure, as the reactor is switched off after 46 years.
"It's the end of an era. We'll go from making electric to making flasks [of nuclear waste]," said Pete Bryan, who has clocked up 34 years at the site.
The workers who ran the plant will now stay on for the next few years to help decommission the site.
Multiple generations of some families have shared employment at Hinkley B.
Paul Gallagher, whose two brothers and daughter also work there, said he was "fortunate" to have spent 12 years on the site.
"The company looked after the employees well, and that's not the corporate view that's my view.
"It's in such a beautiful part of the country so why wouldn't you want to work here?
"It will be sad to see a station and plant that is in good shape not generating any more," he said.
Mark Langston started working at the site as a security guard 24 years ago, before doing an engineering degree and returning.
"Dad was already in the control room, mum was working as a station guide and I have cousins on the A site and an uncle on the B site.
"Through the family there will be a hint of sadness, but we've preparing for this for a while and de-fuelling and de-commissioning will be exciting," he said.
A shared sentiment among many of the workers is that the plant could still go on generating, but the site is now well past its original lifespan.
When it was planned in the 1960s it was expected to operate only just into the 2000s.
"It's sad, because the plant is in really good state. It does feel like there's more life left in it," said Mr Bryan.

Wow the last 17- days was craaaauugh, on a high- and intensty level so I haven´ve even got up my post for a good, calm, medel week -but still some fun here; first a week´worth of inspitefull new tunes, which got picked this past weekend up at this fantastic, warm festival over here ; Second the new FREE single of one amazi8ng Artiste; finally another Artist An ornate pencil drawing of a dragon; a floral postcard congratulating a 40th birthday, never mailed; a silver crochet hook.
All of these items share a connection: They were left behind in books returned to the Oakland Public Library.
Librarian Sharon McKellar collects the found artifacts and posts them on the library's website in a collection titled "Found in a Library Book."
McKellar was fascinated by the things she'd find at the library and the anonymous glimpses into people's lives they offered. She thought the public may be interested too, so nearly 10 years ago she began adding found items to the library's website.
"I had always collected little things I'd found in library books and I knew other people did that too," McKellar said. "So that was how it started. It was pretty simple, I was inspired by a magazine called Found Magazine."
Oakland librarians send McKellar the things they find, which she then scans and adds to the library's growing online collection.
The archive now includes more than 350 items of all sorts. There are yellowed photographs, snippets of homework, bus tickets, love notes and postcards among the collection.
Many of the items appear to come from children. In one note, a child praises "Borok Oboma" for his speeches and family devotion. In another, the writer Ana asks someone in Spanish to check "yes", "no" or "maybe" to say if the two are friends (none of the bubbles are checked.)
Some of McKellar's favorites appear to have been left behind on purpose.
"There's an entire annotated Matilda by Roald Dahl, where a young person put Post-it notes all through the book with just things that popped into their mind as they read it, like, 'Wow! I can't believe the teacher did this,'" she said.
Many of the items seem mysterious without context or origins, and for more than nine years no one ever reached out to claim one, McKellar said.
That changed last month, when Jamee Longacre was looking through some of the collection and a green sticky note caught her eye.
"I even jokingly leaned further in closer to my computer screen," Longacre said, trying to scrutinize it. She recognized the loopy letters of her own handwriting.
Longacre is from nearby Concord, California. She said she remembered writing the note, but couldn't recall the context or who it was given away to. She said she hadn't been to one of Oakland's libraries.
"I just kind of giggled to myself," Longacre said, when she realized the note was her own. She reached out to McKellar to claim it.
To McKellar, the project's fun lies in imagining an item's possible history and the person it belonged to.
"It lets us be a little bit nosy. In a very anonymous way, it's like reading people's secret diaries a little bit but without knowing who they are," or breaching anyone's trust, she said.
She said the library may someday hold a writing contest and ask people to submit short stories to go along with the found items.
Under McKellar's desk, she keeps a box of more found notes waiting to be added to the website. In between meetings, she'll often take out a note or photo or a drawing and examine it.
"I wonder if it was a precious object to somebody," McKellar said. "Does the person miss that item? Do they regret having lost it or were they careless with it because they actually didn't share those deep and profound feelings with the person who wrote [it]?" she wonders.
Then she'll scan the item and add it to the collection.

"During the quarter, we continued to shape our portfolio and deployed capital in a strategic, accretive, balanced manner," Bradie said.

Summarized Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
*As adjusted for the adoption of ASU 2020-06 using the full retrospective method
Financial highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2022
- Revenue of $1.6 billion grew 5% compared to the same period in 2021 primarily attributable to increased activity in 2022 in the European Command related to the war in Ukraine as well as the acquisition of Frazer-Nash Consultancy in October 2021, partially offset by activity in 2021 related to our exit from Middle East contingency operations.
- KBR net income attributable to KBR, diluted earnings per share, adj. EBITDA1 and adj. EPS1 increased in line with revenue as well as the following.
- GS earnings continue to benefit from favorable international mix, strong project execution, excellent customer performance scores in challenging technical areas that reflect high client satisfaction, core revenue growth and favorable project closeouts.
- GS earnings were favorably impacted by the sale of selected non-core assets for which we received $42 million in proceeds and recorded $22 million in gains on assets sales that elevated margins by ~165 bps in Q2 2022.
- STS earnings reflect strong end markets, superior technology offerings, and highly sought-after engineering solutions.
- STS earnings were enhanced by the acceleration of certain project close-outs and other timing items that elevated margins by ~160 bps in Q2 2022.
- STS earnings in Q2 2021 were favorably impacted by a net favorable $16 million benefit associated with the settlement of a subcontractor dispute.
Recent Developments and New Business
In the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the company delivered book-to-bill2 of 2.1x and recorded $2.9 billion of awards and options, including the following:
- A new $69 million ceiling, five-year best value takeaway to provide research and development for airborne manned reconnaissance aircraft intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, and targeting systems for Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane; services include systems engineering, technology improvements, integration, test & evaluation, and training.
- A $95 million, five-year expanded recompete win to develop tools to manage maintenance data, monitor trends, and conduct prognostic analysis using DEVSECOPS to improve readiness of naval aircraft. This award is double the predecessor contract.
- A $1.5 billion award that represents KBR's proportionate share of its non-majority joint venture KZJV's notice to proceed with Phase 1 of Plaquemines LNG for Venture Global LNG, inclusive of KBR services to be provided to KZJV. KZJV will integrate highly modularized, owner-furnished equipment for the 13.33 million tonnes per annum nameplate facility. KBR's role in the joint venture is project management, engineering, program integration and interface management, and commissioning support under an innovative commercial structure that enhances overall program alignment between KZJV and its client. Consistent with our backlog policy, we have recorded our proportionate share of KZJV's estimated backlog into KBR's backlog. As this project is predominantly accounted for as an equity method investment, our proportionate share of the joint venture's future earnings will be recorded in Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates.
- As announced in Q1 2022, a $640 million ceiling Ground Systems and Mission Operations contract to support more than 10 NASA exploration missions, including continued efforts on the James Webb Space Telescope, Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter and Earth Observing System. KBR will provide systems engineering, launch and early orbit support, flight operations, and flight dynamics support to various NASA missions managed by Space Science Mission Operations and Earth Science Mission Operations at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. This highly strategic and technical win represents KBR's largest recompete in 2022.
Capital Deployment
KBR continues to employ a balanced approach to capital allocation, which includes investments that facilitate sustainable, long-term growth and prudent return of capital to shareholders. In the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the company generated $344 million of deployable free cash, which included strong quarterly operating cash flows, planned capital expenditures, and the receipt of proceeds from the sale of non-core assets and subcontractor settlements.
- Today, the company completed its acquisition of VIMA Group, a leading UK digital transformation company serving defense clients, for an agreed-upon purchase price of approximately $73 million funded from cash on hand, subject to certain working capital and other closing adjustments, $5 million of deferred consideration and potential additional cash payments aggregating up to approximately $12 million, contingent upon the achievement of certain performance targets. VIMA Group delivers solutions across a number of large-scale, high-priority digital transformation programs to support its clients in ensuring availability of effective digital and information technology as guided by the UK's Digital Strategy for Defence. VIMA Group is a trusted advisor and a top five supplier to Defence Digital and Navy Digital – both organizations within the UK Ministry of Defence with a number of highly strategic, fast-growing programs. The VIMA Group acquisition is KBR's third acquisition announced in the UK over the past year and enhances the company's platform of high-end consulting, engineering and advisory services in this growing defense market. In July 2021, KBR acquired Harmonic Ltd and in October 2021, Frazer-Nash Consultancy.
- In June 2022, we announced an expansion of our investment in Mura Technology, a UK-based pioneer in circular plastics recycling technology. This investment builds on an alliance KBR and Mura entered into in early 2021 whereby KBR became the exclusive licensing partner for Mura's innovative, proprietary, closed-loop plastics recycling technology powered by super critical water. Not only does this incremental investment increase KBR's potential ownership percentage in Mura from ~5% to ~18.5%, but it also expands the suite of professional services KBR will deliver to Mura-led projects (e.g., advisory, engineering, project management services).
- In the first half of 2022, KBR returned capital to shareholders through the repurchase of $74 million of its common shares, inclusive of share repurchases to satisfy requirements of equity compensation plans and paid $32 million in shareholder dividends.
FY 2022 Guidance
KBR combines deep mission understanding, market-leading expertise and technology, and unwavering operational focus to deliver solutions that help solve our clients' most complex issues. Our 2022 financial guidance is underpinned by favorable market tailwinds, good bookings momentum, a strong first half, and work under contract of over 90% to deliver our 2022 results.
KBR updates its FY 2022 guidance as follows:
- Consolidated revenue: $6.4 billion to $6.8 billion;
- Adjusted EBITDA1 margin: ~10%;
- Effective tax rate: 24% to 25%;

Non-GAAP Financial Information
The following information provides reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures presented in the press release to which this reconciliation is attached to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company has provided the non-GAAP financial information presented in the press release as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in the press release that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented in the press release. The non-GAAP financial measures in the press release may differ from similar measures used by other companies.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
We evaluate performance based on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as Net income (loss) attributable to KBR, plus interest expense, net; provision for income taxes; other non-operating income (expense); and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain amounts included in EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are considered non-GAAP financial measures under SEC rules because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude certain amounts included in the calculation of net income (loss) attributable to KBR in accordance with GAAP for such periods. Management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA afford investors a view of what management considers KBR's core performance for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and also affords investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core performance for the comparable periods.
---------
Adjusted EPS
Adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under SEC rules because Adjusted EPS excludes certain amounts included in the diluted EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP for such periods. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is diluted EPS for the same periods. Management believes that Adjusted EPS affords investors a view of what management considers KBR's core earnings performance for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and also affords investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core earnings performance for the comparable periods.
We have calculated Adjusted EPS for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 by adjusting diluted EPS for the items included in the table below.
---------
We have calculated the 2022 guidance for Adjusted EPS by adjusting diluted EPS for the items included in the table below.

Adjusted Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities and Adjusted Free Cash Flows
Adjusted operating cash flows and adjusted free cash flows are considered non-GAAP financial measures under SEC rules. Adjusted operating cash flows exclude certain amounts included in the cash flows provided by operating activities calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted free cash flows exclude capital expenditures from adjusted operating cash flows. Deployable free cash flows exclude capital expenditures from adjusted operating cash flows and include certain amounts included in the cash flows provided by investing activities calculated in accordance with GAAP. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is cash flows provided by operating activities. Management believes that adjusted operating cash flows, adjusted free cash flows and deployable free cash flows afford investors a view of what management considers KBR's core operating cash flow performance and also afford investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core operating cash generation performance.
We have calculated adjusted operating cash flows and adjusted free cash flows for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 by adjusting operating cash flow provided by operating activities for items included in the table below.

As the beginning of the school year approaches, the Baltimore region is facing a high number of teacher vacancies.
A presentation at Tuesday’s Maryland State Department of Education board meeting described nearly 2,000 teacher vacancies statewide as of September 2021. Individual school systems such as Baltimore City and Prince George’s County are still reporting high numbers of vacancies as the 2022-23 school year approaches.
Adria Hoffman, a professor and education researcher at the Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, said the relatively low pay and pandemic era working conditions contribute to the shortage.
“They’re citing working conditions and financial challenges,” Hoffman said. “And that to me speaks to … this big wondering if we keep talking about a teacher shortage, it’s as though people don’t want to be teachers. But that’s not what I’m seeing and hearing from colleagues who’ve been in the profession. They [teaching colleagues] love teaching. They just can’t continue to do it because of the working conditions and salaries,” she said.
She said the inconsistency that comes with the constant shuffling of teachers to fill gaps creates issues for students emotionally.
MSDE data shows that in the 2018-19 school year, there were 615.62 vacancies, a number calculated based on the time teachers are needed to work in school. Baltimore City and County are two of 11 districts that saw teacher vacancies increase during the 2021-22 school.
Baltimore City Public Schools Chief of Staff Alison Perkins-Cohen estimates that there are approximately 600 to 700 teacher vacancies currently, down from 1,300 in April.
She said the shortage is particularly frustrating since this is the first year with additional funding for more educators as a result of The Blueprint for Maryland’s Future Act, 2021 legislation that will increase education funding by $3.8 billion each year over the next decade.
The city’s schools have been working to fill the gap by starting their hiring process earlier in the year to beat competition with the neighboring school systems. Additionally, they’ve offered conditional hires to those who have not completed the required certifications necessary to teach but intend to do so.
Andrene Castro, a Virginia Commonwealth University professor and education researcher who studies the teacher workforce, said the concept of emergency-certifying educators is a tricky line to walk. She said more vulnerable districts are often the ones with high numbers of emergency-certified teachers.
“There’s a lot of data that shows that students — low-income students, vulnerable students, students of color, when they are exposed to teachers who are not adequately prepared, when those teachers are often leaving the profession ... it then affects student performance, " Castro said.
Castro said that although people might have been in careers in which they interacted with children, they lack the clinical training a degree program typically provides.
Diamonté Brown, president of the Baltimore Teachers Union, said the teacher shortage is due to the hiring process. She said the school system’s hiring department is too busy to keep up.
“A lot of people want to work for Baltimore City Public Schools, but because whatever systems are in place, and our district makes it so difficult to actually become a hire, we end up losing a lot of people that would be working here,” Brown said.
In response, Sherry Christian, spokesperson for the city’s schools said in a statement that they’ve hired teacher ambassadors for the summer to help recruit and aid potential candidates through the hiring process.
Baltimore County currently has 430 teacher vacancies, according to Gboyinde Onijala, director of communications for the school system. If there are still vacancies on the first day of school current teachers will have to assist she said
“I think in any given year, you are recruiting, and if you’re unable to fill certain vacancies, you’re leveraging the staff that you have. You’re leveraging long-term substitutes to cover those positions,” Onijala said. “Schools kind of rearrange things that they’ve got going on to fill that critical need you may have.”
According to an email from the school system, Baltimore County has met with area universities to recruit seniors finishing their internship requirements to be long-term paid substitutes.
Cindy Sexton, president of the union representing Baltimore County teachers, said the shortage has been exacerbated by the coronavirus pandemic. The increased workload leads to stress and burnout, she said.
“I think it’s just something we’ve seen coming, and now, the workload, the discipline concerns, you know, pay — all those things that teachers, educators struggle with — are still happening,” Sexton said.
Onijala said the school system is working to support teachers by providing them with more wellness breaks and additional early dismissal dates.
Lena Amick, a sixth year social studies teacher within the county, said more support for current and new teachers is needed. She said she’s had to give up her planning periods to help cover as a substitute teacher and worked 10 to 12 hour days last year as a teacher at Owings Mills High School.
By taking away her planning, Amick said she’d have to make up the work she missed at home. She’s starting at Parkview High School this year in hope of getting her work hours down to nine a day.
“I want to come in to work, do the stuff that feels really rewarding, do the work to get there and then have enough time to, like, rest and have a life so that I can come back and be my best self the next day,” Amick said, adding the recent school climate and workload has led to an increase in resignations and early retirements.
Nearly all localities started the 2021-22 school year with more vacancies than previous years, and most had vacancies in the areas of special education, early childhood education and elementary education. In central Maryland, Anne Arundel County Public Schools reports 418 teacher vacancies. Farther north, in Carroll County, the school system is working to fill 51 educator vacancies, The Sun reported.
As of Thursday, Howard County Public Schools has about 170 teacher vacancies, according to system spokesperson Brian Bassett.
According to MSDE data, 13.3% teachers statewide in the 2020-21 school year did not return to the same school in the 2021-22 school year. New educators in the state are leaving at a rate of 13.6% after less than three years.
“It’s a lot of work,” Brown said. “And so to have to take on additional work, especially without additional pay, is very burdensome.”
As of Oct. 15, 2021, voluntary resignation was the top reason for teacher exits at 39.2% statewide. During the 2021-22 school year, 55.4% of new teachers, meaning those with five years or less in the industry, left as voluntary resignation.
Amick said the lack of support and heavy workload leads to burnout and pushes both current and potential educators away from the field.
“To have to feel like you have to fight just to be able to do a good job at your job is really frustrating and demoralizing,” Amick said. “And it gives the impression to teachers that they’re not appreciated and that their work isn’t seen and that they’re not wanted.” | https://www.capitalgazette.com/education/bs-md-teacher-shortage-20220802-ogngisg4djdxznxccmqgspw54i-story.html | 2022-08-02T10:34:34Z | https://www.capitalgazette.com/education/bs-md-teacher-shortage-20220802-ogngisg4djdxznxccmqgspw54i-story.html | false |

CHELSEA, Manhattan (PIX11) — Two burglars swiped more than $20,000 in tobacco and vape products from a 7-Eleven in Chelsea, police said Tuesday in a public appeal for tips.
The pair shattered the glass front door of the convenience store on 7th Avenue near West 21st Street just before 4:35 a.m. July 21 and slipped inside, officials said.
The thieves then went behind the counter and grabbed vapes, cartons of cigarettes, and other tobacco products worth a cumulative $20,320, authorities said.
The duo fled on foot into the nearby West 23rd Street subway station on the No. 1 line, according to police, who released surveillance images of the suspects inside the station.
Submit tips to police by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477), visiting crimestoppers.nypdonline.org, downloading the NYPD Crime Stoppers mobile app, or texting 274637 (CRIMES) then entering TIP577. Spanish-speaking callers are asked to dial 1-888-57-PISTA (74782). | https://pix11.com/news/local-news/manhattan/manhattan-7-eleven-thieves-steal-more-than-20k-in-tobacco-vapes/ | 2022-08-02T10:37:09Z | https://pix11.com/news/local-news/manhattan/manhattan-7-eleven-thieves-steal-more-than-20k-in-tobacco-vapes/ | true |
Q: If Boston has now set the mark that an All-Star needs to be included in the package for Kevin Durant, it should be Jimmy Butler and not Bam Adebayo. The combination of Butler and Durant is simply not as lethal as a combination of Bam and Durant. Not to mention, having two 34-year-olds is something that should be avoided especially with the severity of injury Durant had. Bam has 10 elite-level years left and Butler maybe a few. The team would be in better shape for the future, as well, by keeping Bam. – Brian.
A: Actually, when reports of Kevin Durant’s trade request surfaced, some of the speculation did center on Jimmy Butler as a matching trade piece. But that seemingly would be nothing more than subbing out similar components, with a potential net gain, but not an extreme net gain, in light of Butler’s perimeter defensive capabilities. And Jimmy is so tied to Kyle Lowry that there could be some lingering concerns there, as well. When you go through the machinations to bring aboard a Kevin Durant, it has to be with the mind of a significant, franchise-altering upgrade. I’m not sure it’s worth the effort if it means moving on from a player who helped you make the Eastern Conference finals in two of the past three seasons, at times carrying the team on his back, as well as tossing in other sweeteners. To this point, what team has offered their best player to Brooklyn for Durant?
Q: Dare I point out what should be the elephant in the room, but somehow is camouflaged against a gray-painted wall? Jimmy Butler as the centerpiece for Kevin Durant makes more sense from both sides than Bam Adebayo. They fill the same role on each team and they’re the same age, so we don’t mortgage 10 years of good basketball for a 2-3 year window. Butler trumps all the Jaylen Browns and Andrew Wigginses out there. We don’t decimate a “big men” front line that already has nothing behind Bam that can be played in a Finals rotation. – Morgan, New Orleans.
A: So then let’s go to the other side of the equation, regarding the Nets. Subbing out Kevin Durant in favor of Jimmy Butler would hardly move the needle there, as well. Jimmy Butler, Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons gets you where? Let alone the awkward reunion between Butler and Simmons. That’s why the attraction with a younger star, be it a Jaylen Brown and Bam Adebayo. That way you at least can try to bridge to a future.
Q: Are Nets playing a chess game of attempting to dismantle the Celtics’ and/or Heat’s young core? Kevin Durant may change his mind (wink, wink) by deciding to stay with Kyrie Irving, but the emotional scars of battle remain into the 2022-23 season. Irving is known to be a habitual manipulator. This vendetta especially applies to the team which swept the Nets out of the playoffs in the first round. Some observers are still trying to figure out the raison d’etre of Durant’s puzzling trade demand last month. – Leonard, Cornelius, N.C.
A: No, not psychological warfare, but rather a team desperately trying to regroup from a failed experiment. As for Jaylen Brown, Bam Adebayo or any other player mentioned in trade speculation, that’s when you put your big-boy pants on and handle it like a pro. It’s all part of the game.

Q: Who is the better fit next to Kyle Lowry in the starting unit, Victor Oladipo or Tyler Herro? – Eddie, South Bend, Ind.
A: First it remains to be seen how the Heat handle power forward. But assuming a lineup of Bam Adebayo at center, Jimmy Butler at small forward and Kyle Lowry at point guard, you are talking about one additional starting wing. Considering that such a role has gone almost exclusively to a 3-point shooter during this three-year run that has included a trip to the NBA Finals and a trip to the East finals, it would appear that Max Strus would have a leg up. Even if Tyler Herro upgrades his 3-point shot, his slashing style of scoring does not necessarily make him a floor spacer. For Tyler or Victor to crack the starting lineup, it would have to mean consistent 3-point shooting from the starting power forward, and perhaps from Adebayo.
Q: P.J. Tucker barely limped home down the stretch, while Victor Oladipo and Caleb Martin showed more upside potential. – Greg, Jacksonville.
A: I agree that the loss of P.J. Tucker has been overstated. Yes, his veteran presence made a significant difference in the run to within one win of the NBA Finals, but it’s not as if his skill set is irreplaceable. Erik Spoelstra designed a system that played to P.J.’s strengths. Now he’ll have to design a different system. That’s what coaches do.
Q: Is the Heat’s (Pat Riley’s) premise of defense first built on a flawed system? Defense is important, but at the highest levels of competition in the NBA (playing against the best players/ teams in the world), you need players who can create offense. – Stuart.
A: Thus the interest in Kevin Durant and Donovan Mitchell. But Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro and Victor Oladipo all can be shot creators, which gives the Heat a reasonable variety of choices. We have yet to see the Heat when all three are at the tops of their games collectively. This season provides such an opportunity.

An Italian holiday hotspot is putting a stop to people wearing swimming costumes or going shirtless in public.
Tourists could be fined as much as €500 euros or £420 for flouting rules that have been put into effect for causing "discomfort" to locals.
Sorrento, which is situated near the Amalfi Coast and Positano, is popular for its stunning vistas. However, some tourists are ruining the view and risking the "quality of life" of residents, said mayor Massimo Coppola.
"No more with indecent behaviour," declared Coppola when he signed an ordinance in July that enacted fines from €25 to €500. "That's why I signed the ordinance that prohibits people from walking around with a bare chest as well as in swimming suits."
"These types of behaviours can be considered as a cause for unease and discomfort for both Sorrento residents and tourists."
The mayor said the fines are designed to protect the "worthiness of living" in Sorrento's public spaces. He continued: "In this way, we want to protect and improve the worthiness of living, quality of life, and the decor inside the city centre and public spaces."
Sorrento is on the Sorrentine Peninsula south of Naples. Its dramatic coastline is a glamorous destination for its steep cliffs, shimmering views of the Mediterranean, and colourful houses.
Officials in Spain are also cracking down on swimwear. It's against the law to wear swimming trunks, a bikini, or go shirtless outside the beach in Barcelona and Majorca. Offenders could be fined up to £260 in Barcelona and up to £500 in Majorca.

THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
Huntsman Corporation (NYSE: HUN) today reported second quarter 2022 results with revenues of $2,362 million, net income of $242 million, adjusted net income of $265 million and adjusted EBITDA of $432 million.
Peter R. Huntsman, Chairman, President, and CEO, commented:
"Second quarter EBITDA margins exceeded 18% on the back of our value over volume strategy, improved pricing, and solid cost control. We remain well ahead or on track to meet the targets that we presented at our Investor Day in November 2021, despite an increasingly challenging economic environment due to extremely high European natural gas prices, headwinds in China associated with government-mandated shutdowns and monetary tightening in the United States. In addition to the positive results, we repurchased approximately $500 million in shares in the first six months of the year and our balance sheet remains extremely strong with a net leverage ratio of 0.6x.
"Regardless of any macro headwinds that may impact the chemical industry in the coming quarters, our priorities around cost control, a focus on downstream businesses and returning capital to shareholders will remain unchanged. Our balance sheet and cash generation places us in an enviable position to take advantage of opportunities as they present themselves to invest in our core businesses."
Segment Analysis for 2Q22 Compared to 2Q21
Polyurethanes
The increase in revenues in our Polyurethanes segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 was primarily due to higher MDI average selling prices, partially offset by lower sales volumes. MDI average selling prices increased in all our regions. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to the extended government-mandated COVID lockdown in Shanghai, China and lower demand, partially offset by favorable comparisons in Europe due to the scheduled turnaround at our Rotterdam, Netherlands facility in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher MDI margins and a gain from an insurance settlement, partially offset by lower sales volumes, the negative impact of weaker major international currencies against the U.S. dollar and lower equity earnings from our minority-owned joint venture in China.
Performance Products
The increase in revenues in our Performance Products segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 was primarily due to higher average selling prices, partially offset by lower sales volumes. Average selling prices increased primarily due to commercial excellence programs and in response to an increase in raw material costs. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to a shift in product mix based on demand and business strategy. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased revenues and margins, partially offset by a slight increase in fixed costs.
Advanced Materials
The increase in revenues in our Advanced Materials segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 was primarily due to higher average selling prices, partially offset by lower sales volumes. Average selling prices increased largely in response to higher raw material, energy and logistics costs as well as improved sales mix. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to deselection of lower margin base resins business. The increase in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to higher sales prices and improved sales mix.
Textile Effects
The decrease in revenues in our Textile Effects segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 was primarily due to lower sales volumes, partially offset by higher average selling prices. Sales volumes decreased primarily due to a deselection of certain volume as well as lower demand. Average selling prices increased in response to higher direct costs. The decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower revenues, partially offset by improved portfolio mix.
Corporate, LIFO and other
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, adjusted EBITDA from Corporate and other was a loss of $38 million as compared to a loss of $48 million for the same period of 2021. The year-over-year difference was primarily due to translational foreign currency gains related to the Chinese Yuan.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, our free cash flow from continuing operations was a source of cash of $162 million as compared to a use of cash of $83 million in the same period of 2021. As of June 30, 2022, we had approximately $2.1 billion of combined cash and unused borrowing capacity.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we spent $69 million on capital expenditures as compared to $76 million in the same period of 2021. For 2022, we expect to spend approximately $300 million on capital expenditures.
Income Taxes
In the second quarter of 2022, both our effective tax rate and our adjusted effective tax rate was 22%. We expect our 2022 adjusted effective tax rate to be approximately 22% to 24%.

Molecular Partners AG NEWS - MOLN NEWS
CLASS ACTION CASE DETAILS: The filed complaint alleges that Molecular Partners AG made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Company's product, ensovibep, was less effective at treating COVID-19 than defendants had led investors to believe; that (ii) accordingly, the the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") was reasonably likely to require an additional Phase 3 study of ensovibep before granting the drug Emergency Use Authorization ("EUA"); (iii) waning global rates of COVID-19 significantly reduced the Company's chances of securing EUA for ensovibep; (iv) another of the Company's product candidates, MP0310, was less attractive to Molecular Partners' collaborator, Amgen, than defendants had led investors to believe; (v) accordingly, there was a significant likelihood that Amgen would return to global rights of MP0310 to Molecular Partners; (vi) as a result of all the foregoing, the clinical and commercial prospects of ensovibep and MP0310 were overstated; and (vii) as a result, documents issues in connection with the Company's initial public offer and defendants' public statements throughout the class period were materially false and/or misleading and failed to state information required to be stated therein.

The patient was discharged on Monday night after showing the sign of recovery.

Months before the Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments in two consolidated cases that could change the nature of affirmative action in higher education, over 80 companies have signed two amicus briefs to defend diversity in higher education.
Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard could have wide-ranging repercussions for higher education admissions beyond Harvard and the University of North Carolina, the two schools being sued. By signing on to these briefs, business and technology leaders have affirmed the importance of diversity in the workforce.
Education is supposedly the great equalizer, but equality has yet to be actualized. And yet, groups like Students for Fair Admissions swipe at efforts to improve opportunities for diverse groups of students.
Affirmative action ensures workplace diversity
Those supporting the use of race as a part of a holistic admissions process argue that because diversity is vital for business and industry, higher education institutions need to ensure meaningful diversity in the students admitted. Corporate supporters include Ikea, Google, Apple, Proctor & Gamble and Intel. (See the complete list here).
According to the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, the corporate signees represent over five million employees and trillions in annual revenue. The third brief from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford University, IBM and Aeris Communications spoke specifically to the importance of racial diversity within science and engineering. The brief also outlined how underrepresented students would be even more so if race were dropped as an admissions factor.
These briefs are among several being filed this week. The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law and Asians Americans Advancing Justice filed an amicus brief on behalf of several Harvard students and Alumni. Damon Hewitt, president and executive director of the Lawyers’ Committee, said the experiences of the diverse group of students and alumni make a case for affirmative action.
“Affirmative action appropriately widens the lens to identify merit, talent, and potential,” Hewitt said. “That doesn’t just benefit students of color who have been systematically denied equitable access to higher education—it benefits students from all backgrounds.”
Speaking with NewsOne, Michaele N. Turnage Young, senior counsel at LDF, said the filings are essential in providing the Court context for how these legal considerations operate in the real world.
“The Court knows the law, but the court might not have the experience the real-life experience of what it’s like to work in a science and technology company, and really need a diverse pipeline of graduates to populate your company so that you can do the very best when it comes to technological innovation,” Turnage Young explained. “Having amici curiae weigh in on cases is about making sure that the court has the benefit of all the real-life experiences relevant to that particular case.”
Affirmative action cases could change college admissions
While the role of affirmative action has changed over the years, the fight over who is entitled to attend elite institutions persists. And the two cases involving Students for Fair Admissions could fundamentally change college admissions policies and opportunities for Black and other students of color.
Representing more than two dozen Harvard student and alumni organizations as amici curiae, Turnage Young said the filings are important and more can be expected.
“Affirmative action is really just the very limited consideration of race as one of the hundreds of factors that universities consider when deciding who to admit,” she explained. “The legal argument that we’ve made on behalf of our clients —25 Harvard student and alumni organizations— is that if colleges are to pursue the educational benefits of diversity, they need to be in a position to freedom to assemble a class that is diverse along many lines, including racial diversity.”
Shruthi Kumar, co-president of the Harvard South Asian Association, told NewsOne that having race considered as a factor in admissions provides an opportunity to showcase their full selves. Kumar explained that without understanding her background, experiences have a completely different meaning and relevance if carried out by a different student.
David Lewis, Havard Black Student Association’s political chair, argued that considering race is necessary as part of a holistic admissions process.
“Race-conscious admissions are so important to maintain the quality and fairness of education for everybody,” Lewis said. “When I’m in my social studies classes, discussing different social phenomena, I think when there are not multiple people of all backgrounds, ethnicities and races, the quality of the discussion is so much less. I think that we all benefit from diversity here.”
Affirmative action programs in higher education
Striking a balance in a holistic college admissions process has been a long evolving discourse. Different schools use different frameworks for determining which students to offer admission. This becomes a bigger issue at schools perceived as “selective” or “high value.”
But without affirmative action policies and programs, Black and Latino student enrollment could significantly drop at many institutions, potentially creating racialized tiers of higher education access. Turnage Young pointed to enrollment declines after California passed Proposition 209 in 1996.
“At Harvard, the experts estimate that if they are precluded from the limited consideration of race in admissions, the population of black Latinx Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander students might commit by nearly 50 percent,” Turnage Young said. “The state flagship universities there, so at UC Berkeley, you saw this decline in students of color, and the same happened at UCLA.”
According to a 2020 University of California, San Francisco study, almost 30 years after Proposition 209, there has been some “recovery” in Black and Latino student enrollment in California medical schools. But removing the use of race as a consideration created equity gaps that schools had to innovate to overcome. Instead of struggling to recover loss diversity gains, educational institutions could focus on improving student experiences and support.
Students thrive in a more diverse environment
Kumar and Lewis say the holistic admissions process provides a more robust academic experience. Kumar said businesses must show direct, tangible support for diversity beyond slogans and recognizing particular affinity months. If people want to support future leaders, they need to consider who they are supporting and how they provide that support.
“A world in which race-conscious admissions is illegal wouldn’t provide all young people with that equal chance of being in those positions,” Kumar said. “It’s influencing the future generations of who is going to be in these workforces, who’s going to be in leadership positions and what kind of a world is being created to make people feel comfortable, seen, welcomed and valued.
Lewis said that fairness and equity in opportunity for all are at stake in the cases before the Supreme Court in the fall. He also sees efforts to roll back college admissions as exacerbating persisting inequalities in power and wealth, limiting equal access to educational opportunities.
“It’s not just about the numbers on your application and how they compare,” he explained. “Numbers can never take into account the full holistic view of an applicant. We have to look at where they come from, what they persevered through to make those accomplishments and how they played a role and every single factor.”

WILMINGTON, Del., Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- - DuPont (NYSE: DD) today announced financial results(1) for the second quarter of 2022.
"We delivered second quarter financial results ahead of expectations by maintaining a disciplined focus on pricing actions and operational excellence in the face of continued global supply chain and logistics challenges and ongoing inflationary pressure," said Ed Breen, DuPont Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

For the M&M transactions, we continue to expect the completion of the sale of portions of this business to Celanese to close around year-end."
"As DuPont drives innovation investment to support long-term growth, we continue to introduce new products across our key growth pillars," Breen said. "We are excited to have won four 2022 Edison Awards highlighting innovative technologies, while also progressing well with our broader new product pipeline to support growth over the coming years."
Net sales
- Net sales increased 7% on organic sales(2) growth of 9%; portfolio benefit of 1% was more than offset by a 3% currency headwind.
- Organic sales(2) growth of 9% consisted of an 8% increase in price and 1% increase in volume.
- 9% organic sales(2) growth in Water & Protection; 8% organic sales(2) growth in Electronics & Industrial; 15% organic sales(2) growth in retained businesses reported in Corporate & Other, which predominantly consists of our auto adhesives portfolio.
- Organic sales(2) growth in all regions globally, including 13% in U.S & Canada, 8% in EMEA and 6% in Asia Pacific.
GAAP Income/GAAP EPS from continuing operations
- GAAP income/GAAP EPS from continuing operations declined as higher segment earnings and a lower share count were more than offset by lower gains on business divestitures and a higher tax rate compared to the year-ago period.
Operating EBITDA(2)
- Operating EBITDA(2) increased as pricing actions, earnings associated with Laird Performance Materials and volume gains more than offset higher inflationary costs from raw materials, logistics and energy.
Adjusted EPS(2)
- Adjusted EPS(2) increased due to higher segment earnings and a lower share count partially offset by a higher tax rate compared to the year-ago period.
Operating cash flow
- Operating cash flow in the quarter of $86 million and capital expenditures of $135 million resulted in free cash flow(2) of $(49) million.
Net sales
- Net sales increased 16% on organic sales(2) growth of 8%; a portfolio benefit of 11%, reflecting the acquisition of Laird Performance Materials in the prior year, was slightly offset by a 3% currency headwind.
- Organic sales(2) growth of 8% driven by a 6% increase in volume and a 2% increase in price.
Operating EBITDA
- Increase in operating EBITDA driven by earnings associated with Laird Performance Materials, volume gains and higher pricing which was partially offset by higher raw material and logistics costs.
Net sales
- Net sales increased 6% as organic sales(2) growth of 9% was partially offset by a 3% currency headwind.
- Organic sales(2) growth of 9% reflects a 12% increase in price and a 3% decline in volume. The increase in price reflects broad-based actions taken across the segment to offset continued cost inflation.
Operating EBITDA
- Operating EBITDA was down slightly as pricing actions taken to offset higher raw material, logistics and energy costs were more than offset by volume declines.
"Our strong first half 2022 results reflect positively on the secular end-markets in which we operate and highlight our team's focus on execution," said Lori Koch, Chief Financial Officer of DuPont. "As we look towards the second half, demand and overall order trends in our key end-markets remain solid, however, future uncertainties continue to exist including continued inflationary pressure, challenging supply chains, and U.S. dollar strength against global currencies."
"We are narrowing our full year 2022 adjusted EPS guidance from $3.20-$3.50 to $3.27-$3.43 while maintaining the mid-point of our previous range." Koch continued. "Our updated full year 2022 guidance ranges for net sales and operating EBITDA reflect incremental foreign currency headwinds and the removal of contribution from the Biomaterials business, which was divested on May 31, 2022."
"We expect third quarter 2022 net sales and operating EBITDA to be slightly weaker than second quarter 2022 as sequential volume increases are expected to be offset by foreign currency headwinds and the absence of the Biomaterials net sales contribution," Koch said. "We are also expecting a negative impact during the third quarter on operating EBITDA of approximately $15 million from unplanned downtime at our Spruance site in Virginia within the W&P segment resulting from an unforeseen utility disruption with a third-party supplier. On a year-over-year basis, we expect third quarter net sales to be up 2 percent at the mid-point of the range, or up high single-digits on an organic basis."
Conference Call
The Company will host a live webcast of its second quarter earnings conference call with investors to discuss its results and business outlook beginning today at 8:00 a.m. ET. The slide presentation that accompanies the conference call will be posted on the DuPont's Investor Relations Events and Presentations page. A replay of the webcast also will be available on the DuPont's Investor Relations Events and Presentations page following the live event.

Overview
On November 2, 2021, DuPont announced it has entered definitive agreements to acquire Rogers Corporation ("Rogers"), (the "Intended Rogers Acquisition"). On January 25, 2022, Rogers's shareholders approved the transaction. Closing is expected in the third quarter 2022, subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.
On February 18, 2022, DuPont announced that it has entered into definitive agreements to divest a majority of its historic Mobility & Materials segment, excluding certain Advanced Solutions and Performance Resins businesses, to Celanese Corporation ("Celanese"), (the "M&M Divestiture"). Closing is expected around the end of 2022, subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions. The Company also announced on February 18, 2022, that its Board of Directors has approved the divestiture of the Delrin® acetal homopolymer (H-POM) business. In addition to the entry into definitive agreements, the Company anticipates that the closing of the sale of Delrin® would be subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, (the "Delrin® Divestiture" and together with the M&M Divestiture, the "M&M Divestitures").
As of March 31, 2022, the results of operations and the assets and liabilities of the businesses in scope for the M&M Divestitures are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The cash flows of these businesses have not been segregated and are included in the interim Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Unless otherwise indicated, the discussion of results, including the financial measures further discussed below, refer only to DuPont's Continuing Operations and do not include discussion of balances or activity of the businesses in scope for the M&M Divestitures. The Auto Adhesives & Fluids, Multibase™ and Tedlar® product lines previously within the historic Mobility & Materials segment (the "Retained Businesses") are not included in the scope of the intended divestitures. The Retained Businesses are reported in Corporate & Other. The reporting changes have been retrospectively applied for all periods presented.
Cautionary Statement about Forward-looking Statements
This communication contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "see," "will," "would," "target," and similar expressions and variations or negatives of these words.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release includes information that does not conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and are considered non-GAAP measures. Management uses these measures internally for planning, forecasting and evaluating the performance of the Company, including allocating resources. DuPont's management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide additional information related to the ongoing performance of DuPont to offer a more meaningful comparison related to future results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures supplement disclosures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and should not be viewed as an alternative to U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, such non-GAAP measures may not be consistent with similar measures provided or used by other companies. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP measures to U.S. GAAP are provided in the Selected Financial Information and Non-GAAP Measures starting on page 11 and in the Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Measures on the Investors section of the Company's website. Non-GAAP measures included in this release are defined below. The Company has not provided forward-looking U.S. GAAP financial measures or a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain future events. These events include, among others, the impact of portfolio changes, including asset sales, mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; contingent liabilities related to litigation, environmental and indemnifications matters; impairments and discrete tax items. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP results for the guidance period.
The historic Mobility & Material segment costs that are classified as discontinued operations include only direct operating expenses incurred by the M&M Businesses which the Company will cease to incur upon the close of the M&M Divestitures. Indirect costs, such as those related to corporate and shared service functions previously allocated to the M&M Businesses, do not meet the criteria for discontinued operations and remain reported within continuing operations. A portion of these indirect costs include costs related to activities the Company will continue to undertake post-closing of the M&M Divestiture, and for which it will be reimbursed ("Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs"). Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs are reported within continuing operations but are excluded from operating EBITDA as defined below. The remaining portion of these indirect costs is not subject to future reimbursement ("Stranded Costs"). Stranded Costs are reported within continuing operations in Corporate & Other and are included within Operating EBITDA.
Adjusted earnings per common share from continuing operations - diluted ("Adjusted EPS"), is defined as earnings per common share from continuing operations - diluted, excluding the after-tax impact of significant items, after-tax impact of amortization expense of intangibles, the after-tax impact of non-operating pension / other post employment benefits ("OPEB") credits / costs and Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs. Management estimates amortization expense in 2022 associated with intangibles to be approximately $600 million on a pre-tax basis, or approximately $0.93 per share.
The Company's measure of profit/loss for segment reporting purposes is Operating EBITDA as this is the manner in which the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") assesses performance and allocates resources. The Company defines Operating EBITDA as earnings (i.e., "Income from continuing operations before income taxes") before interest, depreciation, amortization, non-operating pension / OPEB benefits / charges, and foreign exchange gains / losses, excluding Future Reimbursable Indirect Costs, and adjusted for significant items. Reconciliations of these measures are provided on the following pages.
Significant items are items that arise outside the ordinary course of the Company's business that management believes may cause misinterpretation of underlying business performance, both historical and future, based on a combination of some or all of the item's size, unusual nature and infrequent occurrence. Management classifies as significant items certain costs and expenses associated with integration and separation activities related to transformational acquisitions and divestitures as they are considered unrelated to ongoing business performance.
Organic Sales is defined as net sales excluding the impacts of currency and portfolio.
Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by/used for operating activities less capital expenditures. As a result, free cash flow represents cash that is available to the Company, after investing in its asset base, to fund obligations using the Company's primary source of liquidity, cash provided by operating activities. Management believes free cash flow, even though it may be defined differently from other companies, is useful to investors, analysts and others to evaluate the Company's cash flow and financial performance, and it is an integral measure used in the Company's financial planning process. Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow divided by net income adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact of non-cash impairment charges, gains or losses on divestitures, and amortization expense of intangibles.

HUDSON, Wis. – A 52-year-old Minnesota man was charged Monday with killing a teenager and stabbing four other people in a dispute that allegedly began with a lost cellphone during a weekend tubing excursion on a western Wisconsin river.
Investigators said in court documents that Nicolae Miu, of Prior Lake, Minnesota, attacked the group after people accused him of approaching children in the water. Miu told investigators that he had acted in self-defense.
He faces one count of first-degree intentional homicide and four counts of attempted first-degree intentional homicide in St. Croix County, which sits along Wisconsin's border with Minnesota. The judge set bond at $1 million cash for Miu, who appeared at the hearing by video.
The family of the teen who died has identified him as 17-year-old Isaac Schuman, of Stillwater, Minnesota. He would have been a senior at Stillwater High School this fall.
The victims were tubing on Saturday down the Apple River northeast of Stillwater, which is about 25 miles (40 kilometers) east of Minneapolis, when they were attacked, sheriff's officials said. Those wounded were two men from Luck, Wisconsin, ages 20 and 22, a 24-year-old woman from Burnsville, Minnesota, and a 22-year-old man from Elk River, Minnesota.
Minnesota Public Radio obtained a copy of the criminal complaint against Miu. According to the complaint, Miu was tubing down the river with his wife and several other people. Another group of people also was tubing on the river.
Miu told investigators that he was using a snorkel and goggles to look for a lost cellphone. Video and witness accounts indicate bystanders accused him of approaching children in the water. Witnesses said Miu was bothering a group of juveniles and others told him to leave, the complaint states.
Instead of leaving, Miu punched a woman and a fight ensued, according to the complaint. Video shows him falling into the river, emerging with a knife and then stabbing a person.
“There was enough blood in the river that the water turned a red tint in places,” the complaint states.
Miu told investigators that he was provoked, according to the complaint. He said at least two others in the crowd had knives and he took one of the knives away from one of the males in the crowd but didn't know what happened to it.
“They attacked me,” he said. “I was in self-defense mode.”
The Burnsville victim, Ryhley Mattison, wrote in a GoFundMe post that she was tubing with her friends when they came across a group asking for help. She said there was an older man who was “being inappropriate and was asked to leave, but wouldn't," and that he stabbed her and several other people.
The victims from Luck have been released from the hospital, St. Croix County Sheriff Scott Knudson said Monday.
Schuman's family said in a statement that he was an honor roll student and was preparing to apply to several universities to study electrical engineering.
“He had an incredibly bright future ahead of him and we are all heartbroken and devastated beyond words that his future has been tragically and senselessly cut short,” the family said. “We very much appreciate the overwhelming outpouring of love and support from our friends, Isaac’s friends and the Stillwater Community.”
Stillwater High School Principal Robert Bach said in an e-mail to families that “we extend our deepest sympathy to the family and everyone impacted directly or indirectly."
Bach told parents the school would help them and their children work through he difficult process.
“The death of a classmate, even for those who didn’t know them well, will impact each student differently, and all reactions need to be addressed with great care and support," he wrote. “We encourage you to talk with your children about this sad news and help them to process their feelings.” | https://www.clickorlando.com/news/national/2022/08/01/minnesota-man-charged-in-deadly-wisconsin-river-attack/ | 2022-08-02T11:00:02Z | https://www.clickorlando.com/news/national/2022/08/01/minnesota-man-charged-in-deadly-wisconsin-river-attack/ | false |

Euro 2022: England win over Germany watched by record television audience of 17.4m
Last updated on .From the section Women's Euro 2022
England's Euro 2022 final win over Germany was watched by a peak BBC One television audience of 17.4 million, making it the most-watched women's football game on UK television.
The 2-1 extra-time win is also the most-watched programme in the UK so far in 2022.
There were a further 5.9 million streams of the game on the BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website and app.
A record crowd of 87,192 watched the game at Wembley Stadium.
Ella Toone and Chloe Kelly got the goals as the Lionesses gave England a first victory in a major international tournament since the men's World Cup triumph of 1966.
"We are incredibly proud to have championed women's football and are thrilled we were able to bring such a special sporting moment to the public," said BBC director-general Tim Davie.
"This was the most-watched women's football game on UK television of all-time and the most-watched programme in 2022 so far - and deservedly so. Everyone at the BBC is delighted at the win and being able to share that with the public."
The previous most-watched programme of the year had been the Party at the Palace event, part of June's Platinum Jubilee celebrations, which had a peak audience of 13.4 million.
The previous highest peak TV audience for women's football in the UK was 11.7 million for England's World Cup semi-final defeat by the United States in 2019.
An audience of 27.4m watched BBC coverage of Euro 2022 across the tournament. All of the most watched matches were England games: England v Germany by an audience of 17.4m, England v Sweden by 9.3m, England v Spain by 7.6m, England v Norway by 4m and England v Austria by 3.6m.
Last year's Euro 2020 final between England and Italy at Wembley, which was broadcast on both the BBC and ITV, peaked at 30.95 million viewers with an average of 29.85 million watching.
That was the highest TV audience since the funeral of Diana, Princess of Wales in 1997. | https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62375750 | 2022-08-02T11:03:45Z | https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/62375750 | false |
BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union’s top court ruled Monday that national maritime authorities cannot impound ships involved in search-and-rescue work on suspicion that they might be overloaded due to the number of migrants they plucked from the sea.
The European Court of Justice ruling came in response to an appeal by German migrant aid group Sea-Watch. Two of the German group’s ships were forced to undergo inspections in Sicily in 2020 after disembarking migrants for taking aboard more people than they were authorized to carry.
Italian harbor authorities also considered that the ships were not certified for search-and-rescue missions.
But the court said that rescued people “must not be taken into account when verifying whether the rules on safety at sea have been complied with. The number of persons on board, even if greater than that which is authorized, cannot therefore, in itself, constitute a ground for a control.”
The Luxembourg-based ECJ also said national port authorities have the right to inspect ships to assess whether rules on working conditions, health and safety, and the environment are being respected.
But it added that they do “not have the power to demand proof that those ships hold certificates other than those issued by the flag state,” which in the case of the Sea-Watch vessels was Germany.
Sea-Watch described the court decision as a victory that means that port authorities can’t arbitrarily detain ships and prevent them from doing their work.
“The ruling provides clear legal security for NGOs and is a victory for sea rescue. In the future, ships will thus continue to do what they do best: Rescue people instead of being arbitrarily stuck in port,” the organization said in a tweet.
Neither the EU nor any of its 27 nations are actively searching for people in danger in the Mediterranean Sea, where more than 1,000 people have died or are missing so far this year, many of whom tried to reach Europe from North Africa in unseaworthy smugglers’ boats.
But ships are bound by international law to respond to any distress call near them.
Most Europe-bound migrants hope to reach family or find work, but many of them are denied asylum because they fled poverty and not persecution or war.
Migration is a key issue in Italy’s early parliamentary election on Sept. 25. Right-wing League party leader Matteo Salvini has promised to take a hard line on migration if his party comes to power in a center-right alliance.

A spooked woman has been told 'someone is living in your house' after a series of strange occurrences. And while she says she doesn't believe in the paranormal, she can't help but think her home might be haunted.
After sharing her experiences of living in the detached home, forum users responded with mixed reaction. Some dismissed her fears but one wrote, 'Burn it down'. Another told her to get a priest in.
The woman explained she'd noticed objects moving around, "muffled voices" and unexplained creaking, reports EdinburghLive. And while her husband has also heard noises, he refuses to speak about.
But before he enters the room, he sends the dog in first to check it out. Now at her wits' end, the freaked-out woman took to popular forum Mumsnet to share her concerns.
She said the house was built on marshland 20 years ago and the couple have lived there for ten. Some dismissed her fears, saying it was just the house 'settling', but others agreed it could be something more sinister.
Remaining anonymous, she wrote: "I’m not into the paranormal but I’m getting freaked out in my house. A year or so after we moved in weird s*** started happening.
"Stuff moving around, noises, dog going nuts in certain rooms, doors opening by themselves etc. DH [dear husband] got freaked out by it and started getting angry at me every time I mentioned it.
"He outright refused to discuss it but admitted he had seen and heard the same stuff as me. Then it all stopped. Nothing happened for years. All good."
But a couple of weeks ago she said she saw a shadow go past behind her in the hallway out of the corner of her eye and heard it "brush along the wall". She said: "The dog (different dog) flew over me barking and growling, all heckles raised.
"Back door was locked, there was no way anyone could have got in without me (or the dog) hearing the front door. I sent the dog around the whole house - nothing at all.
"I put it to the back of my mind but ever since the noises have started up again - footsteps on the first floor, doors opening and closing, muffled voices. DH has heard it too and is laughing it off saying the ghost is back but he too is randomly sending the dog into rooms and upstairs before him and telling me not to be stupid when I mention it.
"It’s seriously starting to freak me out. It happened again 10 minutes ago … the sound of the floorboards creaking upstairs in the pattern of footsteps - DH looked up and muted the TV - then the sound of something being moved.
"I said “You’re not telling me you didn’t hear that?” And he said “I’m not getting into this s*** again” and turned the TV up.
"It’s a detached house, we don’t have neighbours. What the **** is it??"
One forum user reasonably argued: "If it’s a house built on marsh land could it be something like subsidence? That could account for all sorts of things."
Although others argued something a little darker: "You say you lived here 10 years and house 20 year old. Have you checked all rooms, attics, basements, garages to make sure previous occupants definitely left?"
A second echoed: "I hate to break this to you, but someone is living in your house... An alive someone." One simply commented: "OK, I'd move." "Burn it down," another said.
A fourth piped up: "I think I’d get a priest in to bless the house or whatever it is they do to get rid of ghosts! Not sure I believe in all that but it’s worth a try perhaps."
"You need to stop talking about it and try to ignore it. You are giving it energy which makes it stronger," someone suggested. Looking for a logical explanation, another commented: "Rats? Pigeons? Squirrels? I was once sitting in the living and a pigeon flew out of my fireplace." | https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/real-life/woman-warned-someone-secretly-living-24647820 | 2022-08-02T11:05:08Z | https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/real-life/woman-warned-someone-secretly-living-24647820 | false |
Most popular Indianapolis State fair food? Long-time vendor sticks with the past
When Ron Smith is asked about the most popular food at the Indiana State Fair this year, he doesn't hesitate with an an answer.
It's the same he would have given 10 years ago. And 25 years ago. And even 50 years ago.
This marks his 53rd year as a food vendor at the Indiana State Fair, making him the longest-serving concessionaire on the fairgrounds.
His most steady product? Corn dogs.
New fair eats:Foods debuting at the 2022 Indiana State Fair
"I've sold corn dogs my entire life. When I started selling them, they were 35 cents," said Smith, 72, owner of the Lebanon, Indiana-based R.E. Smith Food and Drink, which has 11 food stands at the Indiana State Fair.
Smith's family has been in the food concessions business since the 1920s, traveling by train to sell plated hot lunches of roast beef at fairs and festivals across the country. Back then, traveling food vendors would build wooden stands at each event.
Paper cups weren't yet widely a thing, he said. Coffee sold at fairs, festivals and other outdoor gatherings was served in ceramic cups.
Smith began working in the business as a child.
"It's the only thing I've ever done; the only thing I ever wanted to do," he said.
"The hard part was the logistics. You had to have the equipment move in and get set up. If you weren't at home, you had to have some accommodations for sleeping," he said. "When I started, we didn't have running water. We carried the water in big what they call 'GI cans.' They were galvanized containers but they look like garbage cans. You'd go somewhere and get water and and then we would have a kitchen set up in the stand and there would be a burner in here that kept water boiling all the time. That's where you get your hot water from."
From the hot plates, the family moved to selling hamburgers and hot dogs in buns, and then the more popular footlong hot dogs with chili sauce, along with fish his father fileted, batter-dipped and deep-fried onsite.
"It was an item that you couldn't get every day," Smith said.
At age 19, Smith started his own concessions business at the Indiana State Fair in 1969, selling hotdogs from a stand.
When he was drafted into the U.S. Army and went to Vietnam, his father ran the stand. They were partners when he returned in 1971.
He added corn dogs later, after saving enough money to buy a fryer.
The dish had began to be popularized in the U.S. in the late 1930s and 1940s.
Fair food fads
Today there are more than 20 Indiana State Fair concessionaires, some with multiple stands, with corn dogs on the menu. A couple of them are offshoots of the traditional — there's a turkey corn dog at one stand; one is part of a barbeque dish, and mini corn dogs show up in a charcuterie take on standard fair foods.
Smith, a past president of the National Independent Concessionaires Association, has seen vendors across the fair introduce new items to generate buzz. Food is the top draw for the fair — and a major factor in most entertainment events. His company is one of three year-round food vendors at the state fairgrounds.
"They're all trying new things. They want to try the doughnut burger or whatever it might be. I see some really good items. Very few of them keep going. It's just a fad."
Outside diningEnjoy the weather at these Indianapolis-area restaurant patios
That's not to say that Smith hasn't experimented with his menu. The Italian sausage sandwich was added in the 1970s and was a top seller for about 20 years. It's still there.
The deli sandwiches, fruit salad and veggie kabab he got rid of a few years ago when customers flat-out told him they were coming to the fair to ingest grease and had no interest in healthier fare.
"We did that for about 15 years, and people don't want that stuff," he said.
But, surprisingly, a pig-in-a-blanket with a cocktail-smoked sausage fried in pancake batter and served with syrup also didn't take, he said.
"They're always after you to come up something new and different, which is fine for publicity," he said. "But I stick with what I've done all of my life — corn dogs, hot dogs on a stick."
The Smith stands still dip the dogs in batter and fry them up onsite.
"In the beginning, you made your own batter, and then some factory batters came out. For years, we were hooked up with Pillsbury. We used it or years and years. And then they just quit selling it. Then we were all scrambling to come up with a new one."

Smith said he tried other premade mixes, doctoring them up to his liking for about eight years, until finding one that he was happy with a couple of years ago.
Not all of the many corn dog vendors though are crafting the fried goods. Some arrive at the fairgrounds frozen with low standards that impact other vendors, Smith said.
"The bad thing is there are lots and lots of corn dogs being sold," he said. "And sometimes it's the bad ones that give the good ones a bad name." | https://www.indystar.com/story/entertainment/dining/restaurants/2022/08/02/r-e-smith-food-drink-corn-dog-indy-state-fair/65381477007/ | 2022-08-02T11:08:35Z | https://www.indystar.com/story/entertainment/dining/restaurants/2022/08/02/r-e-smith-food-drink-corn-dog-indy-state-fair/65381477007/ | false |
Op/Ed: Pressure U.S. Congress to enact legislation to protect Hoosiers from hate crimes
For the past year, many in Indianapolis have become acquainted with the local Sikh community through the lens of the April 2021 FedEx shooting. Eight Americans — including four Sikhs and four of our non-Sikh friends, neighbors and coworkers — were killed in that deadly assault, but we have found strength and resilience in one another as we’ve worked to heal and move forward since, including at the one-year anniversary commemoration this past spring.
Now, this weekend, the Sikh community will again pause in remembrance — but this time, for a targeted mass shooting that happened a decade ago in Oak Creek, Wisconsin.
On Aug, 5, 2012, a white supremacist gunman assaulted the gurdwara, or Sikh house of worship, in the city of Oak Creek. Worshippers at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin were gathering for Sunday services, which typically include prayers, singing and a meal made in the communal kitchen and served to everyone, seated on the floor as equals. But by the time the shooting rampage was done, six innocents had been killed, and a seventh was critically injured and would pass from complications years later.
More:New details show interventions failed — again and again — to stop FedEx shooting
In that moment, the Oak Creek sangat, or Sikh community, experienced a remarkable tragedy — but like our own families here in Indianapolis, they came together to support one another. They built interfaith bridges, held service projects to give back to the city that joined them in grief and even went to Capitol Hill to lobby the federal government to specifically track anti-Sikh hate.
That last effort was successful — and in the years since, we have seen the same trend in anti-Sikh hate violence as we’ve seen against hate and bias more broadly: It keeps going up. From Pittsburgh to El Paso and Charleston to Orlando and Isla Vista to Buffalo, white supremacists like the one who attacked Oak Creek continue to pose a real danger, and impose a devastating cost, on marginalized communities.
That’s why this year, I’m choosing to honor the memory of those lost in Oak Creek and all of those other tragedies by engaging my elected officials in Congress.
More:Fed Ex mass shooter's past held more violence, missed red flags, disclosed documents reveal
A first priority is prevention, which can be helped by passing both the Nonprofit Security Grant Program Improvement Act and the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act. The former will free up more resources for gurdwaras and other houses of worship that want to apply for money to increase their security, and the latter will organize the federal government’s terrorism monitoring and response around the greatest threat to our country: identity-based extremists like white supremacists. But we also must include efforts to help those who have already experienced bigotry. By passing the Justice for Victims of Hate Crimes Act, Congress would enable the Department of Justice to pursue hate crimes cases where hate wasn’t the sole motive — a current limit that leaves many hate crime survivors totally dependent on only state and local law enforcement.
After the Indianapolis shooting, many in our state began a conversation about how to change, enhance, or better apply our "red flag" law to prevent further shootings. The same conversation — about concrete policy change to push back against violent hate — has to be had at a national level. This work, of course, must be paired with more inclusive education, efforts to build bridges between faith communities and honest conversations about racism and other bias within every community.
More:‘He should have been red flagged’: mother of FedEx shooter speaks out in Fox59 interview
No one should be targeted by violent hatred, regardless of whether they are at their house of worship, a workplace or just out in public. Too many families have been lost to violence, and we must work together to do something to prevent further tragedy. Anything less dishonors those who have been forced to persevere through so much already.

RESTON, Va., Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Leidos Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: LDOS), a FORTUNE 500® science and technology leader, today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2022.
Roger Krone, Leidos Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Leidos remains on track for another year of solid organic growth and core business profitability. The affirmation of our Defense Enclave Services contract award by the Government Accountability Office demonstrates our leadership in digital modernization across the federal government, with strong demand for our technology solutions and services across our diversified business portfolio. We continue to execute on our disciplined and balanced capital allocation strategy to drive shareholder value. And, we are proving our ability to compete successfully for talent with another quarter of robust hiring."
Summary Operating Results
Revenues for the quarter were $3.60 billion, up 4% in total and organically compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2021. Revenues grew across all reportable segments; the largest contributors were continued growth of the Navy Next Generation Enterprise Network Recompete (NGEN-R) Service Management, Integration and Transport (SMIT) contract and increased deployments on the Defense Healthcare Management System Modernization (DHMSM) program.
Net income was $172 million and diluted EPS was $1.24. Net income and diluted EPS were up 1% and 5% year-over-year, respectively, and net income margin decreased from 4.9% to 4.8% year-over-year. Net interest expense increased to $50 million from $46 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021. In addition, the weighted average diluted share count for the quarter was 138 million compared to 143 million in the prior year quarter, which benefited from the retirement of 0.3 million shares as part of the final settlement of the Accelerated Share Repurchase (ASR) agreement implemented in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA was $366 million for the second quarter, up 2% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased from 10.4% to 10.2% over the same period. Non-GAAP net income was $220 million for the second quarter, which was up slightly year-over-year, and non-GAAP diluted EPS for the quarter was $1.59, which was up 5% compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2021.
Cash Flow Summary
In the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, Leidos generated $40 million of net cash provided by operating activities, used $8 million in investing activities and generated $6 million in financing activities. After adjusting for payments for property, equipment and software, quarterly free cash flow was $19 million.
In the quarter Leidos entered into a 364-day term loan credit agreement for a senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $380 million, and the proceeds were used to repay the $380 million senior unsecured term loan entered into on May 7, 2021. As of July 1, 2022, Leidos had $339 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.2 billion of debt, including $150 million of Commercial Paper Notes outstanding.
After the close of the quarter, Leidos entered into a definitive agreement with private equity firm Advent International to acquire Cobham Aviation Services Australia's Special Mission business. The acquired business provides Border Force Airborne Surveillance and Maritime Safety Search and Rescue services to the Australian Federal Government. The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.
On July 29, 2022, the Leidos Board of Directors declared that Leidos will pay a cash dividend of $0.36 per share on September 30, 2022 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 15, 2022.
New Business Awards
Net bookings totaled $2.2 billion in the quarter, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 0.6. As a result, backlog at the end of the quarter was $34.7 billion, of which $7.5 billion was funded. During the quarter Leidos received several particularly important awards:
- Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Defense Enclave Services (DES). DISA awarded Leidos a single-award, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract with a total estimated value of $11.5 billion and a four-year base period of performance followed by three two-year option periods. Through the DES contract, Leidos will consolidate enterprise IT services and provide standardized, responsive and cost-effective solutions for more than 370,000 users spanning 22 Department of Defense (DoD) agencies and field activities with over 500 sites both in the U.S. and abroad. This work will focus on mission value and user experience, while improving cybersecurity, network availability and reliability for Fourth Estate agencies.
- Program Executive Office (PEO) Integrated Warfare Systems (IWS) Undersea Warfare Combat System and Product Support. Leidos was awarded a follow-on contract to support the Navy's PEO IWS Directorate. Under the contract, Leidos will perform a range of support services, including shipboard modernization, curriculum development, training conduct, depot support, technical data, maintenance planning and management. The single award, cost-plus-fixed-fee contract holds an approximate value of $291 million and includes a one-year base period of performance with four additional one-year option periods.
- Navy Medical Performance Research. Leidos was awarded a new task order by the Naval Medical Readiness Logistics Command, Detachment Fort Detrick, to support research to maximize warfighter performance and survivability in the aviation, underwater and special warfare environments. Under the contract, Leidos will support research on the human cognitive and physiological factors associated with military operations. The research focuses on motion sickness, aeromedical standards, hypoxia, fatigue assessment, aviation safety and both neurocognitive and neurophysiological effects. The contract holds an approximate value of $53 million and includes a one-year base period of performance with four one-year options and one six-month option.
- Punta Cana Security Checkpoint Upgrade. Leidos was selected by the Dominican Republic's Punta Cana International Airport to upgrade their security checkpoints. Punta Cana hosts more than 4 million tourists annually with strong projected growth over the coming years. The Leidos solution will keep passengers and staff safe while enhancing operational efficiencies and increasing passenger throughput. For example, using enhanced screening techniques, passengers will no longer need to remove electronics and liquids from carry-on bags. Implementation will be completed in the first half of 2023.
Forward Guidance
Leidos is maintaining its fiscal year 2022 guidance as follows:
For information regarding adjusted EBITDA margin and non-GAAP diluted EPS, see the related explanations and reconciliations to GAAP measures included elsewhere in this release.
Leidos does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA margins or non-GAAP diluted EPS to net income due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because certain deductions for non-GAAP exclusions used to calculate projected net income may vary significantly based on actual events, Leidos is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income at this time. The amounts of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected net income and diluted EPS being materially less than what may be implied by projected adjusted EBITDA margins and non-GAAP diluted EPS.
Conference Call Information
Leidos management will discuss operations and financial results in an earnings conference call beginning at 8:00 A.M. eastern time on August 2, 2022. Analysts and institutional investors may participate by dialing +1 (877) 869-3847 (toll-free U.S.) or +1 (201) 689-8261 (international callers).

Defense Solutions
Defense Solutions revenues of $2,052 million increased by 2% compared to the prior year quarter. The primary drivers of revenue growth were the ramp up of the Navy NGEN-R SMIT and the Enduring Indirect Fires Protection Capability (IFPC) contracts, which offset the completion of the programs supporting operations in Afghanistan, a reduction in the volume of material purchases supporting hypersonics programs and an adverse foreign exchange impact. For the quarter Defense Solutions operating income margin was 6.8% and non-GAAP operating income margin was 8.3%, both unchanged compared to the prior year quarter.
Civil
Civil revenues of $857 million increased by 7% compared to the prior year quarter. The primary drivers of revenue growth were the start up of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Advanced Enterprise Global Information Technology Solutions (AEGIS) program and increased demand on existing programs with commercial energy providers and the Department of Energy (DoE). Civil operating income margin for the quarter decreased to 4.4% from 6.9% in the prior year quarter. Non-GAAP operating income margin was 6.5%, compared to 9.1% in the prior year quarter. The decline in segment profitability was primarily attributable to an adverse arbitration ruling and associated legal fees totaling $17 million relating to the acquisition of IS&GS from Lockheed Martin.
Health
Health revenues of $688 million increased by 7% compared to the prior year quarter, primarily as a result of increased volumes on the DHMSM program and the ramp up of the Military and Family Life Counseling (MFLC) program. In addition, Leidos received a $28 million equitable adjustment to cover costs incurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was the primary driver for operating income margin to improve from 16.6% to 18.3% and non-GAAP operating income margin to improve from 17.8% to 19.8% compared to the prior year quarter.
LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
UNAUDITED BACKLOG BY REPORTABLE SEGMENT
(in millions)
Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts. Backlog value is based on management's estimates about volume of services, availability of customer funding and other factors, and excludes contracts that are under protest. Estimated backlog comprises both funded and negotiated unfunded backlog. Backlog estimates are subject to change and may be affected by several factors, including modifications of contracts, non-exercise of options and foreign currency movements.
Funded backlog for contracts with the U.S. government represents the value on contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Funded backlog for contracts with non-U.S. government entities and commercial customers represents the estimated value on contracts, which may cover multiple future years, under which Leidos is obligated to perform, less revenue previously recognized on the contracts.
Negotiated unfunded backlog represents estimated amounts of revenue to be earned in the future from contracts for which funding has not been appropriated and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include unexercised option periods and future potential task orders expected to be awarded under IDIQ, General Services Administration Schedule or other master agreement contract vehicles, with the exception of certain IDIQ contracts where task orders are not competitively awarded or separately priced but instead are used as a funding mechanism, and where there is a basis for estimating future revenues and funding on future anticipated task orders.
The estimated value of backlog as of the dates presented was as follows:
The increase in backlog includes $49 million of backlog acquired through business combinations in our Defense Solutions reportable segment. Total backlog at July 1, 2022, included a negative impact of $268 million when compared to total backlog at July 2, 2021, primarily due to the exchange rate movements in the British pound and Australian dollar when compared to the U.S. dollar.
LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
UNAUDITED NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Leidos uses and refers to organic growth, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP diluted EPS, free cash flow and free cash flow conversion, which are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. and, accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with Leidos's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide another representation of the results of operations and financial condition, including its ability to comply with financial covenants. These non-GAAP measures are frequently used by financial analysts covering Leidos and its peers. The computation of non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, thus limiting their use for comparability.
Organic growth captures the revenue growth that is inherent in the underlying business excluding the impact of acquisitions made within the prior year; it is computed as current revenues excluding acquisition revenues within the last 12 months divided by previous year revenues excluding revenues from entities divested within the prior year.
Non-GAAP operating income is computed by excluding the following discrete items from operating income:
- Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs – Represents acquisition, integration, lease termination and severance costs related to acquisitions.
- Amortization of acquired intangible assets – Represents the amortization of the fair value of the acquired intangible assets.
- Asset impairment charges – Represents impairments of long-lived intangible assets.
Non-GAAP operating margin is computed by dividing non-GAAP operating income by revenues.
Adjusted EBITDA is computed by excluding the following items from income before income taxes: (i) discrete items as identified above; (ii) interest expense; (iii) interest income; (iv) depreciation expense; and (v) amortization of internally developed intangible assets.
Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenues.
Non-GAAP net income is computed by excluding the discrete items listed under non-GAAP operating income and their related tax impacts.
Non-GAAP diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Free cash flow is computed by deducting expenditures for property, equipment and software from net cash provided by operating activities.
Free cash flow conversion is computed by dividing free cash flow by non-GAAP net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders; operating cash flow conversion is computed by dividing net cash provided by operating activities by net income attributable to Leidos shareholders.

Alex Jones expected to testify in defamation case over Sandy Hook shooting
By Jack Queen
Aug 2 (Reuters) - U.S. conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is expected to take the stand on Tuesday to defend against claims that he must pay the parents of a child killed in the Sandy Hook massacre for falsely claiming the shooting was a hoax.
Jones, founder of the Infowars radio show and webcast, is on trial in a Texas court to determine how much he must pay for spreading falsehoods about the killing of 20 children and six staff at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, on Dec. 14, 2012.
Neil Heslin and Scarlett Lewis, the parents of slain 6-year-old Jesse Lewis, are seeking as much as $150 million from Jones and his company, Free Speech Systems LLC.
A lawyer for Jones said he had already paid a price after being deplatformed in 2018 and losing millions of viewers. Jones has since acknowledged that the shooting took place. He was expected to take the stand on Tuesday in his defense, a lawyer for the parents said.
The parents are also expected to testify on Tuesday.
The defamation suit in Austin, Texas, where Infowars is based, is one of several brought by families of victims who say Jones's followers harassed them as a result of his false claims.
The Sandy Hook gunman, Adam Lanza, 20, used a Remington Bushmaster rifle to carry out the massacre. It ended when Lanza killed himself with the approaching sound of police sirens.

Kremlin to U.S.: 'megaphone diplomacy' won't work on Griner swap
Aug 2 (Reuters) - Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday that any talks on a possible prisoner exchange involving U.S. basketball star Brittney Griner needed to be discreet and that "megaphone diplomacy" would not achieve results.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Wednesday that Washington has made a "substantial offer" to Moscow to release American citizens held in Russia. A source said that the United States was willing to exchange convicted arms trafficker Viktor Bout, known as the "Merchant of Death." (Reporting by Reuters; editing by Guy Faulconbridge)

Stories of war are being told now by some of Ukraine's leading female artists at New York's Fridman Gallery, as well as a gallery in Kyiv. The women are activists as well as artists, and are responding in paint, photographs and videos to the Russian invasion, and earlier conflicts over the annexation of Crimea. The powerful, haunting works prove that art is not just about pretty pictures.
Lesia Khomenko's portrait of her new husband Max shows one of the many Ukrainian men drafted to fight against the Russians. He'd been a musician and media artist before the war. He and Lesia were a couple. When Max entered the army, Lesia was able to leave the country.
Over the months of separation, he regularly sent her selfies. But during those months, she noticed changes in Max. "Now, he is totally in military uniform" she says. And she paints a new tension in him. There's a scowl on his face. He stands as straight as possible, saluting. His expression is serious — determined and focused. His clothes are too big. "I wonder if I can still recognize him," she says.
Lesia spoke to NPR a day before she flew from New York back to Ukraine, for just a week-long visit. She'd felt she had to leave her country, even though it meant being away from Max. "It's too dangerous in Ukraine. I have a small daughter and I am very responsible for her. I can't live with her in Ukraine." Three times a day she'd had to run to the basement to hide from shelling: "You're filled with fear."
But with help from technology, she and Max were able to make the fear almost bearable. They got married online.
Other artists in the exhibition "Women at War" make works about history, politics, war and the pain and toll of it. They show the aftermath of rapes — painful drawings of private parts, bloodied by aggression; a mother and small children at the foot of a filthy basement staircase; the forbidding image of a psychiatric hospital. Surrounded by shelling and death, the Ukrainian women make artworks.
"In every war, there was artistic life," says curator and art historian Monika Fabijanska, "either underground or above ground, wherever possible." Creating is an essential outlet. "Art allows you to process and name our feelings, and find other people who feel it and process it."
In drawings, film, even handwriting on scraps of bed linen, these artists are history's witnesses to the realities of war: its dailiness and the toll it takes.

LUXEMBOURG, Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Swiss Insured Brazil Power Finance S.à r.l., a private limited liability company (société à responsabilité limitée), incorporated and existing under Luxembourg law, having its registered office at 16, rue Eugène Ruppert, L – 2453 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, registered with the Luxembourg Register of Commerce and Companies under number B 217648 (the "Company"), previously launched a consent solicitation (the "Consent Solicitation") in relation to its 9.850% Senior Secured Notes due 2032 with ISIN USL8915MAA38/US870880AA90 (the "Notes") pursuant to the consent solicitation statement, dated July 20, 2022 (as supplemented and amended prior to the date hereof, the "Statement"). Capitalized terms used, but not defined, in this announcement (the "Announcement") have the meanings assigned to them in the Statement.
The Company announces today that it has extended the scheduled expiration time for the Consent Solicitation from 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on August 1, 2022 (the "Existing Expiration Time") to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on August 3, 2022 (as so extended, the "Expiration Time"). D.F. King & Co., Inc., as Information and Tabulation Agent, informed the Company that, as of the Existing Expiration Time, Holders of R$1.45 billion aggregate principal amount of Notes, or 45.17% of the Original Face Value (as defined below), have provided their Consent in the Consent Solicitation. Furthermore, as of the date hereof, the holder of 100% of the loans under the Uninsured Loan Agreement has consented to the CELSE Consent and Amendment Authorization; therefore, the Requisite Consents threshold will be met if Holders representing at least 51.25% in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes validly deliver (and do not revoke) Consents in the Consent Solicitation. Accordingly, Holders of an additional R$194.7 million, or 6.08% of the R$3,201,500,000 initial aggregate principal amount of Notes (the "Original Face Value"), would be required to Consent (and not revoke) in the Consent Solicitation in order for the Company to obtain the Requisite Consent. As of the date hereof, the Company continues to be in dialogue with certain Holders that have not yet consented but who have provided non-binding indications of intent to Consent. By adding such non-binding indications of intent to Consent together with the consents received as of the Existing Expiration Time, the Company expects that the Requisite Consents will be obtained.
As previously announced, the aggregate Consent Payment payable to Holders who validly deliver (and do not revoke) their Consent at or prior to the Expiration Time, will be 1.00% of the Original Face Value, or R$32,015,000, to be shared by all such consenting Holders. Specifically, the Consent Payment will be an amount, per R$1,000 of Original Face Value of Notes for which Holders have validly delivered (and not revoked) Consents prior to the Expiration Time, equal to the product of R$10.00 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Original Face Value of the Notes outstanding as of the Expiration Time and the denominator of which is the Original Face Value of Notes for which Holders have validly delivered (and not revoked) Consents prior to the Expiration Time. As a result, the Consent Payment for the Notes will range from R$10.00 per R$1,000 (if all Holders consent) to approximately R$19.51 per R$1,000 (if Holders of 51.25% of the Original Face Value of Notes consent). Payment of the Consent Payment to consenting Holders is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the other conditions to the Consent Solicitation set forth in the Statement, including the receipt of the Requisite Consents.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Joe Cunningham has chosen Tally Parham Casey, a civil litigator who flew fighter jets during three combat tours over Iraq, to be his running mate in his quest to become South Carolina’s first Democratic governor in 20 years.
“She’s one of the most impressive people that I’ve ever met,” said Cunningham, who previewed his lieutenant governor pick for The Associated Press ahead of a formal announcement Monday. “She’s fought for our freedoms abroad, and she wants to continue fighting for those freedoms, so that’s why I put her on the ticket, and she’s agreed to do it.”
Cunningham, 40, planned to introduce Casey, 52, at an event in Greenville, her hometown.
“I have long admired Joe’s bipartisan approach to governing and believe he is exactly what South Carolina needs as governor,” Casey said in a statement provided by the campaign, calling her selection “an incredible honor and privilege.”
“Joe is a regular guy who has the guts to say what we’re all thinking,” she also said in the statement.
This is the second gubernatorial election cycle in which contenders for South Carolina’s top two executive offices run on the same ticket. In years past, governors and their lieutenant governors were elected separately, meaning that sometimes the politicians clashed ideologically or were from different parties.
Last week, Gov. Henry McMaster and Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, 54, became South Carolina’s first gubernatorial ticket to file for reelection, with McMaster calling the payroll company founder “fully conversant with the trials, tribulations and challenges of business.” That skillset, the governor has said, complements his decades in law and politics.
Since her election in 2018, Evette has spent many months traveling the state, meeting with businesses and promoting their relationships with South Carolina’s technical training schools. Both she and the governor say keeping them strong is key to the state’s manufacturing economy.
Cunningham also points to the diverse experiences of his running mate. Casey’s military service, legal savvy and the fact that she’s a woman make her the right fit for where he’d like to take the state, he said.
“Tally is the best person for the job, period,” Cunningham told AP. “And the fact that she’s a woman brings that perspective to the ticket, especially in light of everything that’s gone on with Gov. McMaster’s attack on our freedoms and his assault on women’s rights. It makes it that much more personal for Tally.”
The Republican-dominated Legislature is on track to make abortions even harder to get in South Carolina after the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to reverse its nearly 50-year-old Roe v. Wade ruling affirming a constitutional right to the procedure.
While abortion-rights groups challenge the state’s current law, which bans abortions after six weeks of pregnancy but includes some exceptions, a special legislative committee advanced a proposal last week to ban almost all abortions, except when the mother’s life is at risk.
McMaster, who has said he would “immediately” work with those lawmakers, said last week that the six-week ban includes “good exceptions” and is “quite reasonable.”
“If there are other steps, if there are other things that they believe should be done after thorough examination, then I’d like to hear about it,” McMaster said.
Cunningham has called for legislators to hold off on debating the measure this fall until after the November election.
Casey was South Carolina’s first female fighter pilot, enlisting with the state’s Air National Guard’s 157th Fighter Squadron in 1996 and attaining the rank of lieutenant colonel. She has nearly 1,500 hours in the F-16, more than 100 of them in combat, and has received numerous service-related awards.
Casey also has been an attorney for more than two decades, most of that at Wyche P.A. in Columbia, where she was elected chair in 2017 and focuses on commercial litigation, products liability, insurance and aerospace law. The graduate of Princeton University and the University of Virginia School of Law has also been a federal law clerk.
On Monday, McMaster’s campaign said in a statement that Casey’s selection “will have far less of an impact on the campaign than his record as left-wing, Joe-Biden Democrat who has spent more time chasing Tik-Tok followers than working to improve the lives of South Carolinians.”
Like Cunningham, Casey is significantly younger than McMaster, who at 75 is the state’s oldest governor, and whose age the Democrat has said is too advanced to adequately represent South Carolinians.
“He’s been in politics literally longer than I’ve been alive, and you look at where that’s gotten us,” Cunningham said. “What Tally offers is much-needed change, and it’ll be a refreshing take on politics.”
Cunningham has proposed an age cap of 72 for South Carolina officeholders — a shift that would require voters to approve a constitutional change. He’s signaled openness to a similar federal age limit, which would apply to 82-year-old House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn of South Carolina and 79-year-old President Joe Biden.

TORONTO, Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Electra Battery Materials Corporation (NASDAQ: ELBM) (TSXV: ELBM) ("Electra" or the "Company") today provided an update on its 2022 exploration program at its Ruby prospect, located 1.5 kilometers from its primary Iron Creek cobalt-copper deposit in the Idaho Cobalt Belt. Electra's exploration program is a cornerstone of its strategy to onshore the electric vehicle supply chain by identifying domestic sources of critical minerals for the electric vehicle market.
- A strong and open-ended anomaly at Ruby was defined by an Induced Polarization (IP) survey, which measures the chargeability of the subsurface to determine the presence of sulphide minerals.
- Drilling on the eastern margin of the Ruby target area intersected mineralization that is texturally similar to the Iron Creek deposit. Additional drilling is planned to the west, targeting the strongest part of the identified anomaly.
- Surface sampling, geophysical surveys and drilling completed to date suggest that Ruby could be an important new mineralized cobalt and copper target in proximity to Electra's Iron Creek deposit.
- Drill samples have been sent for testing at a third-party laboratory, with assay results expected before the end of Q3 2022.
"It is a testament to the Electra team that our maiden drill campaign at Ruby intersected mineralization exactly where the geophysical survey predicted it would be," said Trent Mell CEO of Electra Battery Materials. "These are early days for this target, but the similarities to our Iron Creek cobalt and copper deposit validate our view that the underexplored Idaho Cobalt Belt remains prospective for new discoveries. Idaho could play an important role in the onshoring of the EV battery supply chain by providing a domestic supply of cobalt in America."
The 2022 drill program was based on the results of a 7.6-kilometer pole-dipole 3D IP survey of the Ruby prospect. The survey defined a strong chargeability anomaly with a 10 mV/V contour open-ended on each side (see Figure 1). Stronger chargeability zones exceeding 30 mV/V occur on the western edge of the survey and remain open-ended, extending toward the Coiner Fault system. The chargeability anomaly is spatially coincident with cobalt mineralization sampled at surface, and 3D modeling indicates it increases in thickness with depth.
Two drill holes have been completed for a total of 824 metres on the eastern side of the target. Both holes intercepted strong zones of pyrite mineralization spatially coincident with the upper edge of the target zone. Additional drilling will move west and target the strongest portion of the anomaly.
Electra previously sampled surface exposure of cobalt mineralization at Ruby across a 295-metre strike extent, returning several high-grade values, such as 10.7 metres at 0.24% cobalt (including 1.5 metre at 0.48% cobalt) and 7.6 metres at 0.26% cobalt (see October 29, 2019 press release).
Based on bedrock mapping, Ruby may be a separate stratigraphic unit or may be structurally offset from the Iron Creek mineralized horizon by a north-south trending fault. Younger volcanic rocks partially cover the target stratigraphy between Iron Creek and Ruby.
Along with covering Ruby, a single 1.5 km line of pole-dipole IP was completed on the Redcastle property approximately 1.2 km southeast of Ruby. The Redcastle project covers similar stratigraphy to Ruby and Iron Creek occurrences and is being explored for additional zones of sulfide mineralization. The single IP line did not identify any significant chargeability anomalies, however, additional exploration is planned on the Redcastle property. In 2021, Electra entered a joint venture on the 224 hectares Redcastle property with Phoenix Copper Ltd. (see May 25, 2021 press release for terms of JV).
Electra's Iron Creek Project is located in the Idaho Cobalt Belt and is one of the few primary cobalt deposits in the world. The Company completed 30,000 metres of drilling from 2017 to 2019 before pausing exploration to focus on developing its battery materials park in Canada, which will be commissioned in phases starting in Q4 2022.
Iron Creek is considered to be amenable to underground mining extraction, which would result in a small footprint and minimize environmental impact. Drilling has demonstrated multiple mineralized horizons continuous along strike and down-dip. Thicker zones of mineralization of up to 30 metres occur in the eastern portions of the resource that also contain higher grades of cobalt.
Iron Creek currently has an Indicated Resource of 2.2 million tonnes at 0.32% cobalt equivalent (0.26% cobalt and 0.61% copper) for 12.3 million pounds of contained cobalt and 29 million pounds of contained copper, as well as an Inferred Resource of 2.7 million tonnes at 0.28% cobalt equivalent (0.22% cobalt and 0.68% copper) for an additional 12.7 million pounds of contained cobalt and 40 million pounds of contained copper. The resource estimate used a 0.18% cobalt equivalent cutoff grade.

Readers are cautioned that mineral resources are not economic mineral reserves and that the economic viability of resources that are not mineral reserves has not been demonstrated. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by geology, environmental, permitting, legal, title, socio-political, marketing or other relevant issues. The mineral resource estimate is classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum's (CIM) "2014 CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves" incorporated by reference into NI 43-101. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies or economic studies except for a Preliminary Economic Assessment as defined under NI 43-101. Readers are cautioned not to assume that further work on the stated resources will lead to mineral reserves that can be mined economically. An Inferred Mineral Resource as defined by the CIM Standing Committee is "that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence and sampling. Geological evidence is sufficient to imply but not verify geological and grade or quality continuity. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — The San Diego Padres acquired All-Star closer Josh Hader from the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday in exchange for recently benched closer Taylor Rogers and three other players in a blockbuster deal between NL playoff contenders.
The NL Central-leading Brewers shipped one of the game’s top relievers to the Padres for Rogers, right-hander Dinelson Lamet, outfielder Esteury Ruiz and pitching prospect Robert Gasser.
The trade features the two big league saves leaders. Hader has 29 saves while Rogers has 28, though the Padres recently removed Rogers from the closer role after he blew consecutive opportunities in a series at Detroit. The Padres obtained Rogers from Minnesota on opening day.
“Josh Hader is one of the best closers in the league,” Padres general manager A.J. Preller said. “He’s been there, done that, pitched in big spots, big playoff games. He’s got elite stuff.”
San Diego also finalized a $100 million, five-year contract with right-hander Joe Musgrove that starts next year. The 29-year-old Musgrove is 8-4 with a 2.65 ERA in 18 starts this season.
Hader, the NL reliever of the year three times in the last four seasons, has a career-high 4.24 ERA after enduring one of his worst slumps just before the All-Star break.
The left-hander allowed five homers and 12 runs over 4 1/3 innings in a stretch of six appearances in early July, increasing his ERA from 1.05 to 4.50. Hader otherwise has allowed just four runs in 29 2/3 innings.
And hitters continue to have all kind of trouble making contact against him. Hader has struck out 59 batters in 34 innings. He has blown only two of his 31 save opportunities.
Hader, 28, is making $11 million this year and is eligible for arbitration again in the offseason. He could become a free agent after 2023. His gradually increasing salary had raised speculation with each trade deadline that the budget-conscious Brewers might deal him.
This time, they made the move.
“We felt this was the right time, and it was only a player of that caliber that could garner such a significant return to make such an impact on the future of the organization,” Brewers President of Baseball Operations David Stearns said.
The Brewers also might have been convinced by the emergence of All-Star reliever and 2020 NL Rookie of the Year Devin Williams, who has 30 consecutive scoreless appearances. Stearns declined to speculate on whether Williams or Rogers would take over as closer, saying that decision would be left up to manger Craig Counsell.
Hader issued an Instagram post thanking the city of Milwaukee for embracing him. He had spent his entire major league career with the Brewers, who acquired him along with Adrian Houser, Brett Phillips and Domingo Santana in a 2015 trade that sent Carlos Gomez and Mike Fiers to the Houston Astros.
“Thank you for the support throughout my career,” Hader said. “Y’all have been great to me. The people, the energy, the love! There will always be a special place in my heart for MKE.”
Rogers is 1-5 with a 4.35 ERA and seven blown saves. After a strong start to the season, Rogers posted a 5.59 ERA in June and a 9.31 ERA in July. He can become a free agent after the season.
“In Taylor’s case, a lot of this was and is reliever volatility that we can see,” Stearns said of Rogers’ recent struggles. “We think this is a good pitcher who’s going to perform for us. And we think our staff will be able to get the best out of him.”
Lamet has struggled this season with an 0-1 record and 9.49 ERA in 13 appearances, well above his career ERA of 4.08.
The 23-year-old Ruiz has hit well above .300 at both the Double-A and Triple-A levels this season and was hitting .222 in 14 games with San Diego. Gasser, a second-round draft pick last year, has gone 4-9 with a 4.18 ERA at the high Single-A level this year.
The Brewers will assign Ruiz to Triple-A Nashville and Gasser to Double-A Biloxi.
Milwaukee has a three-game lead over St. Louis in the NL Central, and the Padres have a 1 1/2-game lead over Philadelphia for the second NL wild card.

Elevate Capital Awarded Management of Business Oregon's Second Commercialization Gap Fund
PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Elevate Capital, Oregon's first inclusive venture capital fund that supports inclusion and diversity, has been selected by Business Oregon as the Fund Manager for their second Commercialization Gap Fund.
The Commercialization Gap Fund was initiated in 2020 after Business Oregon's Innovation Council (Oregon InC) studied capital gaps and found a need to support science and research-based companies in early stages of commercialization. There are few sources of capital or "gap funding" in Oregon for entrepreneurs at the earliest stages of commercialization due in part to the long-term nature of return expectations. In response to this issue, Oregon InC created the Gap Fund to focus on filling the "valley of death" and support commercialization of disruptive science and research technologies. The Gap Fund also intends to recycle investment back to Oregon InC to support additional companies as an evergreen program. The Gap Fund is a critical component of Oregon's 10-Year Innovation Plan.
Business Oregon, via Oregon InC, previously awarded Elevate Capital $2.5 million to manage the state's first Commercialization Gap Fund in 2020. This year, Elevate has been awarded $4.5 million for Gap Fund 2. For Gap Fund 1, Elevate Capital invested in 15 companies over a 12-month period, with check sizes ranging from $50,000 to $250,000. Of these startups, 29% are led by women and another 29% have BIPOC or immigrant founders.
For Fund 2, a $4.5 million State-financed Fund, Elevate Capital will invest in another 15 companies with larger check sizes from Fund 1, ranging from $100,000 to $250,000, and increased follow-on funding. Like the first Fund, Gap Fund 2 will invest in early-stage innovation across Oregon Innovation Council's target industries, such as life science, cleantech, sustainable resources, advanced manufacturing, and active lifestyle. Elevate Capital will continue leveraging its experience as an industry leader investing in underserved founders, an especially important effort in the hard sciences.
"Elevate Capital, through its work with the Gap Fund, exposed a dire need for capital for Oregon's early-stage companies coming out of its research institutions," said Nitin Rai, Founder and Managing Partner at Elevate Capital.

Now home shoppers can use the Home Swap™ interest-free home equity advance to increase their down payment and lower their mortgage rate
NEW YORK, Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Buyers and sellers are quickly realizing that traditional home loans don't work when rising interest rates and home prices combine to make buying a home more expensive than ever before. Knock, the fast-growing fintech company that makes all homebuyers Power Buyers, today introduced two new features that give homeowners the ability to tap into the unprecedented equity gains they've amassed in their current house to make buying a new home more affordable.
Effective today, homeowners who take advantage of the Knock Home Swap1, which includes a competitively priced mortgage and 100% of the financing necessary to buy before you sell, are eligible to use the Home Swap's interest-free home equity advance in two ways to lower the interest and monthly payments on their new home. They can use it to:
- Buy down their mortgage rate by as much as 0.75%
- Make up to a 30% down payment on their new home, which would reduce their monthly payment further by as much as an additional one-eighth of a percentage point
"With mortgage rates doubling since the start of the year and home prices continuing to grow at double-digits, buying a home has gotten a lot more expensive. At the same time, homeowners have more of their wealth tied up in their home than any other time in history," said Knock Co-Founder and CEO Sean Black. "Thousands of homeowners have used the Knock Home Swap to work with the agent they trust to compete with cash offers to win their dream home and then move on their own timeline and sell for top dollar. Now, they can use it to buy down their rate and put more money down, which will drive their rate even lower."
In just a year, the typical U.S. homeowner saw their home equity increase $55,300 in 2021, according to CoreLogic, and with the median-priced home reaching a record of $416,000 in June that has only continued to increase in 2022. A homebuyer purchasing a median price home could reduce their mortgage payment by nearly 14%, or $259 a month, by leveraging the Home Swap's no interest equity advance to increase their down payment from 20% to 30% and qualify for a lower interest rate. Paying a point to lower their interest by 0.5% would trim an additional $90 per month, saving more than $32,000 over the life of the loan.2
The Knock Home Swap's interest-free equity advance loan covers the down payment on the new home, home prep and up to six months of mortgage payments on the old house. Home Swap customers are able to sell their old house on the open market for the maximum sale price after they've moved into their new home, avoiding the hassle of living through repairs or showings.
Knock also provides a 30-day closing guarantee, Home Prep Concierge and backup offer on the old house in the unlikely event that it doesn't sell within six months. More than 98% of Knock homes sell in 90 days or less, with 88% selling in 30 days or less.
Knock partners with more than 350 real estate brokerage firms with 120,000 agents in approximately 5,900 ZIP codes to bring its innovative home loan financing solutions to homebuyers nationwide on home purchases up to $3 million.
1Mortgage loans offered by Knock Lending LLC. NMLS 1958445. Equal Housing Lender. For licensing information go to: www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

Knock is rewriting the rules of homeownership with mobile technology and innovative home financing solutions that make all homebuyers Power Buyers. Knock's flagship Home Swap™ product empowers consumers with a non-contingent offer on their phone to buy the home they want before selling the home they have, providing certainty knowing you've found your dream home and the convenience of not having to live through repairs or showings. Knock GO™ (Guaranteed Offer) is a cash-like home loan solution for first-time homebuyers looking to compete in today's hot housing market.
Launched in 2015 by founding team members of Trulia.com, Knock currently operates in 75 markets nationwide. Knock has raised $900 million in debt and equity from top-tier investors, including Foundry Group, Greycroft, RRE, Parker89 and The National Association of Realtors®, giving NAR's 1.5 million members the ability to market Knock's homeownership solutions to their clients.

Fury as Chinese vlogger eats great white shark: Giant fish - a vulnerable species - is marinated and barbecued before influencer feasts on it
- Chinese vlogger known as Tizi filmed herself eating a great white shark
- Video showed shark being sliced up and barbecued so she could eat it
- Police are now investigating after the footage caused outrage online
- Great whites are 'protected' in China, meaning consumption is restricted
A Chinese influencer is under police investigation after a clip of her roasting and eating a great white shark went viral.
Footage of the vlogger, popularly known by her online pseudonym Tizi, showed her feasting on the predatory fish, which police in the central city of Nanchong confirmed Sunday was a great white.
'It may look vicious, but its meat is truly very tender,' Tizi said while tearing off large chunks of the animal's barbecued meat, in a video posted in mid-July.
Chinese vlogger known to her online fans as Tizi is under police investigation after she filmed herself eating a great white shark
Footage shows Tizi unwrapping the shark and lying next to it before the animal is cut in half and barbecued
In the video, since deleted, she is seen unwrapping a two-metre-long fish and lying down next to it to show that it is taller than her.
The shark is then sliced in half, marinated and barbecued, while the head is cooked in a spicy broth.
Great white sharks are listed as a vulnerable species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature - just one step before being classed as endangered.
Populations of sharks - some of the oceans' most important apex predators - have been battered over the last few decades, the main culprits being finning and industrial longline fishing.
In China, they are listed as protected. Illegal possession can lead to a five-to-10-year prison term.
'It is flabbergasting that an internet celebrity can eat a protected animal in front of millions in broad daylight!' wrote one commentator in response to the story.
Tizi is then shown eating the shark, which is a 'protected' species under Chinese law meaning consumption is prohibited - though not necessarily illegal
The vlogger insists she obtained the shark by 'legal means' and so eating it is allowed, but Chinese investigators say that is 'inconsistent with the facts'
'These uncultured attention-mongers will stoop very low to attract eyeballs!' another said.
It is unclear whether Tizi, who has almost eight million followers, will be punished.
She told local media that she acquired the shark through 'legal channels', but the local agriculture bureau said Monday her claim was 'inconsistent with the facts' and that police were investigating.
Dried baby shark flesh is used as a cat food in China and can be bought in many online stores.
Chinese state media has long waged war on viral binge-eating videos, known by the Korean slang 'mukbang', while livestreaming platforms have for years promised to shut down accounts promoting excess eating and food wastage. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11072407/Fury-Chinese-vlogger-eats-great-white-shark.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-02T11:36:06Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11072407/Fury-Chinese-vlogger-eats-great-white-shark.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true |
Economist Impact survey of 2,000 business leaders, sponsored by Cognizant, shows key challenges include competing priorities, deriving value from technology investments, addressing a talent and skills gap, and sustaining action on ESG
- Approximately 90% of respondents cited competing strategic imperatives, including data-driven ways of working, digital business models, and aligning operations with these new ways to work.
- Over 60% of respondents are planning for or have already begun adopting advanced technology such as quantum computing, blockchain, and robotics. Yet nearly 50% claim they are not achieving significant value from existing technology investments.
- Nearly half of respondents, approximately 46%, recognize they lack the internal talent necessary to implement and utilize advanced technologies.
- An overwhelming nine out of 10 respondents recognize attention to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues is an essential aspect of being a modern business; only 35% are currently incorporating ESG into company strategy.
TEANECK, N.J., Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
Cognizant today introduced The Future-Ready Business Benchmark, research from Economist Impact, commissioned by Cognizant. This comprehensive survey of business leaders across eight industries and 10 countries is aimed at understanding the state of the modern business and how leaders are preparing for long-term success in a post-pandemic world. The research identifies three essential interrelated areas that leaders must prioritize to create a resilient, future-ready enterprise: 1) Realizing full value from accelerated technology adoption, 2) overhauling workforce strategies, and 3) closing the gap on thought and action in the face of growing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) challenges.
"Resilience is the new must-have capability for every organization that expects to thrive in this time of intensifying competition, ever-accelerating digital technology, and unpredictable global events," said Euan Davis, Head of Cognizant Research. "To succeed as a modern business, leaders must be ready for anything, and prioritization is key when everything seems equally critical. We've shown that savvy technology investment, attention on developing talent with new and expanded skillsets, and embedding and acting on an ESG agenda are core elements of focus on which leaders can build. The successful CxOs will build future-ready, resilient businesses by ensuring their organizations learn, adapt, and continually evolve."
Economist Impact surveyed 2,000 senior executives in 10 countries across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific to assess and compare their businesses across a range of metrics.
Survey highlights include these insights:
- Strategic clarity is muddled. Over 90% of business leaders surveyed say it is a strategic priority to adopt a data-driven approach and create a digital-first business model, with 37% citing both imperatives, along with the need to align operations with these new modes of working, as "business critical."
- Technology investment is accelerating beyond what has become the standard shopping list of cloud, advanced analytics, IoT and artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) even while respondents say they are not yet realizing full value of existing investments. In addition to these foundational technologies, of which the vast majority of respondents, 80%, say they have adopted or plan to adopt, there is a growing appetite for an emerging set of technologies; over 60% of respondents say they plan to or are already adopting quantum computing, blockchain, and robotics.
- Workforce and talent management strategies need a major overhaul to prepare workers for new ways of work. Nearly half of respondents, at 46%, recognize they lack the skilled talent necessary to make productive use of advanced technologies. When asked about the biggest hurdles to implementing new processes, products, services and technologies over the last 12 months, the two most significant challenges were workforce-related: a lack of knowledgeable staff and a chronic lack of focus on preparing workers for the new ways of work. For example, just one-third, or 33%, of respondents are using data to identify and understand training needs and cultivate talent.
- Business resilience is at risk for companies that recognize ESG as a critical consideration but fail to take action to integrate ESG throughout the organization. Nine in 10 decision-makers, or 90%, recognize attending to ESG issues is an important aspect of being a modern business. However, there is a massive disconnect between recognition and action, with only 31% having dedicated staff and resources devoted to ESG, and only 35% incorporating ESG into company strategy. A slight majority, 54%, report setting and taking action on specific environmental targets, while only 44% currently measure social impact.
"Many businesses today are struggling to prepare for next month, let alone years from now," noted Vaibhav Sahgal, Principal at Economist Impact. "Firms genuinely embedding principles of future-readiness from our Future-Ready Business Benchmark into their operational realities will maintain and grow their competitive advantage. Our data validated the fact that it is particularly challenging to make progress on the matter when juggling a vast array of often competing priorities. Our guidance is to start where the gaps are most significant and dial up the focus on people; the benchmark offers tangible calls to action for businesses across countries and industries. A failure to embrace the volatility that is here to stay, and prioritize business plans and investments accordingly, puts your business at the risk of losing relevance."
Study Methodology
The Future-Ready Business Benchmark, research from Economist Impact, supported by Cognizant, examines the state of businesses today in light of the needs of tomorrow. It was developed through a rigorous process of research, expert consultations, data collection and analysis. The benchmark reflects a range of key considerations and measures of future-readiness for multi-national firms from 10 developed economies and eight industries, spanning the external environment, business preparedness factors and current performance, and focused on cross-cutting themes including firm fundamentals, talent, technology and innovative ability, and ESG.
