Indonesia postpones $252 Komodo Island entry fee after strike By IANS | Published: August 10, 2022 10:48 AM2022-08-10T10:48:03+5:302022-08-10T11:00:08+5:30 Jakarta, Aug 10 Indonesia has postponed a steep increase to the entry fee for Komodo Island, home to ... Jakarta, Aug 10 Indonesia has postponed a steep increase to the entry fee for Komodo Island, home to the giant lizards known as Komodo dragons, following a strike by tourism operators. The annual membership fee of 3.75 million rupiah ($252) will instead be imposed in January 2023, Gusti Hendriyani, spokesperson for the Tourism and Creative Economy Ministry, said on Tuesday. "The postponement is in line with public aspirations," she said. Tourism Minister Sandiaga Uno said the strike was called off following dialogue between local government officials and protesters. Tourism operators and workers in Labuan Bajo, the town on Flores island where most visitors to Komodo stay, declared a one-month strike on August 1, the same day authorities imposed the new fee. Previously, domestic visitors were charged $5 per entry and foreigners had to pay $10, but no single-entry option was offered under the new pricing. The government is aiming to limit visitors as part of conservation efforts, but tourism operators had called for the old price structure be restored, saying the new fee was killing their business as many prospective tourists cancelled bookings. Listed by National Geographic as one of the world's top 10 destinations, Komodo National Park is home to more than 5,000 rare giant lizards. The government first floated the idea of limiting access to Komodo island in 2018. The island typically takes in over 10,000 visitors per month. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) said last year that the Komodo dragon is increasingly threatened by the impacts of climate change.

NEW YORK (AP) — Lamont Dozier, the middle name of the celebrated Holland-Dozier-Holland team that wrote and produced “You Can’t Hurry Love,” “Heat Wave” and dozens of other hits and helped make Motown an essential record company of the 1960s and beyond, has died at age 81. Dozier died “peacefully” Monday at his home near Scottsdale, Arizona, according to a statement issued by his family. The cause of death was not immediately determined. Duke Fakir, a close friend and the last surviving member of the original Four Tops, called Dozier a “beautiful, talented guy” with an uncanny sense of what material worked best for a given group. “I like to call Holland-Dozier-Holland ‘tailors of music,’” he said Tuesday during a telephone interview. “They could take any artist, call them into their office, talk to them, listen to them and write them a top 10 song.” In Motown’s historic, self-defined rise to the “Sound of Young America,” Holland-Dozier-Holland stood out even compared to such gifted peers as Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder and Barrett Strong. Over a four-year period, 1963-67, Dozier and brothers Brian and Eddie Holland crafted more than 25 top 10 songs and mastered the blend of pop and rhythm and blues that allowed the Detroit label, and founder Berry Gordy, to defy boundaries between Black and white music and rival the Beatles on the airwaves. For the Four Tops, they wrote “Baby I Need Your Loving” and “Reach Out (I’ll Be There),” for Martha and the Vandellas they wrote “Heat Wave” and “Jimmy Mack,” for Marvin Gaye “Baby Don’t You Do It” and “How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You).” The music lived on through countless soundtracks, samplings and radio airings, in cover versions by the Rolling Stones, Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor and many others and in generations of songwriters and musicians influenced by the Motown sound. “Their structures were simple and direct,” Gerri Hirshey wrote in the Motown history “Nowhere to Run: The Story of Soul Music,” published in 1984. “Sometimes a song barreled to number one on the sheer voice of repetitive hooks, like a fast-food jingle that lurks, subliminally, until it connects with real hunger.” Brian Wilson, Ronnie Wood and Mick Hucknall were among the many musicians offering tributes Tuesday. Carole King, who with then-husband Gerry Goffin was another leading hitmaker of the ’60s, tweeted that “striving to keep up with them made us better songwriters.” The polish of H-D-H was ideally suited for Motown’s signature act, Diana Ross and the Supremes, for whom they wrote 10 No. 1 songs, among them “Where Did Our Love Go,” “Stop! In the Name of Love” and “You Can’t Hurry Love.” Expectations were so high that when “Nothing But Heartaches” failed to make the top 10 in 1965, Gordy sent a company memo demanding that Motown only release chart toppers for the Supremes, an order H-D-H obeyed with “I Hear a Symphony” and several more records. Holland-Dozier-Holland weren’t above formulas or closely repeating a previous hit, but they worked in various moods and styles: the casual joy of “How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You),” the escalating desire of “Heat Wave,” the urgency of “Reach Out (I’ll Be There).” Dozier’s focus was on melody and arrangements, whether the haunting echoes of the Vandellas’ backing vocals on “Nowhere To Run,” flashing lights of guitar that drive the Supremes’ “You Keep Me Hanging On,” or the hypnotic gospel piano on Gaye’s “Can I Get a Witness.” “All the songs started out as slow ballads, but when we were in the studio we’d pick up the tempo,” Dozier told the Guardian in 2001. “The songs had to be fast because they were for teenagers – otherwise it would have been more like something for your parents. The emotion was still there, it was just under cover of the optimism that you got from the up-tempo beat.” The prime of H-D-H, and of Motown, ended in 1968 amid questions and legal disputes over royalties and other issues. H-D-H left the label, and neither side would recover. The Four Tops and the Supremes were among the acts who suffered from no longer having their most dependable writers. Meanwhile, H-D-H’s efforts to start their own business fell far short of Motown. The labels Invictus and Hot Wax both faded within a few years, and Dozier would recall with disbelief the Hollands’ turning down such future superstars as Al Green and George Clinton. H-D-H did release several hits, including Freda Payne’s “Band of Gold” and Honey Cone’s “Want Ads.” Holland-Dozier-Holland were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1988 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame two years later. On his own, Dozier had a top 20 hit with “Trying to Hold on to My Woman,” helped produce Aretha Franklin’s “Sweet Passion” album and collaborated with Eric Clapton and Hucknall among others. His biggest success was co-writing Phil Collins’ chart-topping “Two Hearts,” from the 1988 movie “Buster,” a mid-tempo, Motown-style ballad that won a Grammy and Golden Globe and received an Oscar nomination. H-D-H reunited for a stage production of “The First Wives Club,” which premiered in 2009, but their time back together was brief and unhappy. Dozier and the Hollands clashed often and Dozier dropped out before the show launched. “I can’t see us ever working with Lamont again,” Eddie Holland wrote in “Come and Get These Memories,” a memoir by the Hollands that came out in 2019, the same year Dozier published the memoir “How Sweet It Is.” Dozier acknowledged that his early success conflicted with his family life, but he eventually settled down with Barbara Ullman, who died in 2021 after more than 40 years of marriage. His children included the songwriter-record producer Beau Dozier and composer Paris Ray Dozier. Like so many Motown artists, Dozier was born in Detroit and raised in a family of singers and musicians. He sang in the choir of his Baptist church and his love for words was affirmed by a grade school teacher who, he recalled, liked one of his poems so much she kept it on the blackboard for a month. By the late 1950s, he was a professional singer and eventually signed with Motown, where he first worked with Brian Holland, and then Eddie Holland, who wrote most of the lyrics. Some of Motown’s biggest hits and catchiest phrases originated from Dozier’s domestic life. He remembered his grandfather’s addressing women as “Sugar pie, honey bunch,” the opening words and ongoing refrain of the Four Tops’ “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch).” The Four Tops hit “Bernadette” was inspired by all three songwriters having troubles with women named Bernadette, while an argument with another Dozier girlfriend helped inspire a Supremes favorite. “She was pretty heated up because I was quite the ladies’ man at that time and I’d been cheating on her,” Dozier told the Guardian. “So she started telling me off and swinging at me until I said, ‘Stop! In the name of love!’ And as soon as I’d said it I heard a cash register in my head and laughed. My girlfriend didn’t think it was very amusing: we broke up. The only ones who were happy about it were the Supremes.” ___ For more AP entertainment news, go to https://apnews.com/hub/entertainment

BEIJING (AP) — Asian stocks followed Wall Street lower Wednesday ahead of U.S. inflation data that traders worry will show upward pressure on prices still is too strong for the Federal Reserve to ease off interest rate hikes. Shanghai, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Seoul declined. Oil prices edged lower. Wall Street’s benchmark S&P 500 index lost 0.4% on Tuesday for its fourth daily decline following disappointing earnings reports. Data on Wednesday are expected to show headline U.S. inflation in July eased from the previous month’s four-decade high of 9.1%. But a survey by FactSet found traders expect core inflation, which strips out volatile food and energy, leaving rent and other costs, to edge higher. That is despite other data that show economic activity cooling. Anything above 8% is “still too high” for the Fed, Tan Boon Heng of Mizuho Bank said in a report. “The fight to tackle inflation is far from over,” Tan said. Investors worry efforts by the Fed and other central banks in Europe and Asia to cool inflation that is at multi-decade highs might derail global economic growth. On Wall Street, the S&P 500 fell to 4,122.47 while traders waited for more evidence of how aggressively the Fed might pursue more rate hikes. The Fed has raised rates four times this year, including twice by 0.75 percentage points, triple its usual margin. Investors expect another hike of 0.75 percentage points in September after data last week showed hiring was stronger than forecast. Fed officials acknowledge there is a danger the U.S. economy might tip into recession, but some point to the strong job market as evidence it can tolerate more rate hikes. The Dow slipped 0.2% to close at 32,774.41. The Nasdaq dropped 1.2% to 12,493.93. The Russell 2000 ended down 1.5%, at 1,912.89. Chipmaker Micron Technology fell 3.7% after warning investors that revenue could fall short of forecasts because of weakening demand. That warning hit other chipmakers hard, with Nvidia shedding 4%. Norwegian Cruise Line plunged 10.6% for the biggest drop in the S&P 500 after reporting disappointing results and a weak revenue forecast. Expedia fell 1.6% and American Airlines fell 2.7%. Markets also have been rattled by Russia’s war on Ukraine, which caused a spike in prices of oil, wheat and other commodities, and uncertainty about Chinese anti-virus measures that disrupted manufacturing and trade. In energy markets, benchmark U.S. crude lost 30 cents to $90.20 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell 26 cents to $90.50 on Tuesday. Brent crude, the price basis for international trading, shed 25 cents to $96.06 per barrel in London. It declined 34 cents the previous session to $96.31. The dollar declined to 135.02 yen from Tuesday’s 135.18 yen. The euro rose to $1.0215 from $1.0205.

Elizabeth A. Eaton, presiding bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, issued a public apology Tuesday to members of a majority Latino immigrant congregation for the pain and trauma they endured after the predominantly white denomination’s first openly transgender bishop unexpectedly fired their pastor. Speaking during the 2022 Churchwide Assembly being held in Columbus, Ohio, Eaton delivered the apology to members of the Iglesia Luterana Santa Maria Peregrina in Stockton, California, describing the events that transpired as “a sharp assault on your dignity.” The series of events that led to the apology began on Dec. 12 when the Rev. Megan Rohrer, the denomination’s first transgender bishop who oversaw one of the church’s 65 synods, announced to the congregation that their pastor, the Rev. Nelson Rabell-Gonzalez, had been removed over allegations of verbal harassment and retaliation. Rohrer oversaw nearly 200 congregations in northern California and northern Nevada. Rohrer’s shocking announcement upended the congregation’s much-anticipated celebration of the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. The community had planned an elaborate program that day with mariachi singers, traditional dancers and performances by children, all led by their pastor. After the pastor’s firing, the congregation lost the denomination’s financial backing and were forced to vacate their building and worship in the parking lot. Rohrer resigned in June and the next day became the target of a church disciplinary process. During Tuesday’s public apology, Eaton addressed how especially egregious it was to have the announcement of their pastor’s termination coincide with the feast day that has elevated significance within the Latino community. Eaton said she is working with church leadership to make amends with the congregation and reviewing Rabell-Gonzalez’s case. What happened “exposed the depth of systemic racism that we wrestle with as a church and in society,” Eaton said. “It is not the end, but a critical step on a continuing journey for the goal of being a more faithful church responding to the plague of racism,” Eaton said. “I pray that God’s power enables these words of apology and acknowledgement as a step toward concrete repentance.” Eaton also committed to listening intently to the voices of those traditionally marginalized. She delivered her remarks in English and they were translated in real time into Spanish. Jovita Torres Pérez, a congregant from the California church, delivered an emotional address in Spanish, saying it was not easy for her and other church members “to be here.” “The last nine months have been difficult and painful for our community,” she said, adding that their pastor and the community have been victims of various racist actions on the larger church’s part. Pérez accepted Eaton’s apology on behalf of her church and said the congregation believes in forgiveness, reconciliation and reparations. She said she viewed this apology as the first step in the process of dismantling systemic racism and white supremacy within the denomination. Pérez said congregants still support their pastor. “We believe in his integrity and honesty,” she said. Another congregant choked up as she translated Pérez’s words into English. Eaton hugged Pérez and the other congregants and the crowd listening rose to their feet in applause. Eaton invited those in attendance to write on ribbons their laments and prayers for the congregation, the church and the world, and tie them onto a wired crossed that will be on display during the assembly. Rohrer, who uses “they” pronouns, said they were traveling in Israel. Rohrer responded via direct messaging to The Associated Press on Tuesday expressing support for “all efforts to provide care, healing and reconciliation for all affected from 2019 to the present.” “At its assembly, our beloved ELCA has the opportunity to prayerfully take legislative actions that will support diversity and the inclusion of more of God’s beautiful creation,” Rohrer said. “I pray they will do so, in intersectional ways.” Rohrer said they were in Israel “learning more about peacemaking efforts and supporting LGBTQ individuals in Israel and Palestine.” “I’ll also be discerning God’s call for the next chapter of my life,” Rohrer said. ___ Associated Press religion coverage receives support through the AP’s collaboration with The Conversation US, with funding from Lilly Endowment Inc.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House panel investigating the U.S. Capitol insurrection interviewed former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and met briefly with Pennsylvania’s Republican nominee for governor Doug Mastriano on Tuesday as it probes Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Pompeo is among several of Trump’s former Cabinet officials the committee wanted to talk to after it was disclosed that some of them raised concerns about former president’s actions — going so far as having considered invoking the 25th Amendment process to remove Trump from office after the riot. Pompeo’s appearance was confirmed by a person familiar with the situation but unauthorized to discuss it publicly. Mastriano, who was outside the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, and helped organize efforts in Pennsylvania to submit alternate presidential electors beholden to Trump, cut his interview short without answering questions. He disputed the validity of the committee and the terms of the appearance, his attorney said. The committee is working through August, deepening its probe after blockbuster public hearings this summer that began to outline its investigation into Trump’s multi-pronged effort to reverse his election loss to Joe Biden and the subsequent storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. The meeting with Pompeo, who is considering a 2024 presidential run, comes as the panel’s Vice Chair Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., has publicly disclosed that the committee has several former Cabinet officials in mind for interviews. Steven Mnuchin, Trump’s treasury secretary, testified before the committee last month. The scheme to compile alternative electors has involved Republican officials in battleground states across the nation who are now facing questions, from the Jan. 6 committee and federal investigators. The “fake electors” emerged as a last-ditch plan by Trump’s team to stop Biden’s victory when Congress met for the typical routine job of certifying the state election results. Mastriano’s attorney, Timothy Parlatore, said his client’s appearance before the committee was over in less than 15 minutes. He said Mastriano wanted to be able to record the interview and said little during the brief session, Parlatore said they plan to challenge the committee in court. “Because he’s currently in a general election, we just want some protective measures,” Parlatore said in a phone interview, “to prevent them from putting out a false or misleading quote that would potentially impact the election.” Committee chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson issued the subpoena for Mastriano back in February as the panel intensified its probe of the “fake electors” scheme, seeking documentation from him and others potentially involved and in close contact with Trump. The committee “is seeking information about efforts to send false slates of electors to Washington and change the outcome of the 2020 election,” Thompson wrote. “We’re seeking records and testimony from former campaign officials and other individuals in various states who we believe have relevant information about the planning and implementation of those plans.” Mastriano, who organized two buses from central Pennsylvania for the Trump speech that preceded the violent siege and himself had VIP seating at the rally, walked to the Capitol afterward. He had been scheduled to speak on the Capitol steps that afternoon. Parlatore said Mastriano “knows nothing about any insurrection” and did not witness any violence or see any firearms. He said his client would be willing to testify publicly before the panel. A retired Army officer who beat out several candidates to emerge as the GOP nominee for governor in Pennsylvania, Mastriano has previously been willing to talk to the committee. He also spoke with the FBI last year and said he did not know about a planned insurrection, his lawyer has said. Mastriano has said he had regular calls with then-President Donald Trump in the months between Trump’s reelection defeat and the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. His attorney sought to shield Mastriano from testifying over the alternative electors plan because it was undertaken when his client was a state senator. Parlatore said much of Mastriano’s contacts with Trump in the lead-up to Jan. 6 involved Mastriano’s capacity as a state lawmaker — a status that complicates the committee’s efforts to interview him about what the lawyer described as “alternative electors” to the Electoral College. Parlatore said he planned to file a court action in Washington, D.C., federal court, seeking to have a judge determine if Jan. 6 committee’s makeup and procedures violate House rules. Growing from Trump’s false claims of voter fraud, the fake electors strategy relied on having several battleground states that Biden won submit their tally for the defeated Republican president, rather than the Democratic winner, Biden. Federal authorities earlier this summer issued subpoenas in several key battleground states across the nation to individuals in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Georgia and other Republican officials potentially involved in the strategy to submit electors for Trump. Prosecutors in Georgia are similarly probing Trump’s attempt to subvert the election results in that state. The Justice Department has charged more than 800 people in the deadly Capitol riot and is investigating Trump’s actions in the run up and aftermath of the insurrection. The Jan. 6 attack left at least nine people dead in the riot and its aftermath, including a Trump supporter shot by police and a police officer who died later. __ Scolforo reported from Harrisburg, Pa.

Beware: Bond Arithmetic The Term Premium The term premium is the amount of extra yield you will need in order to lend over a longer period rather than a shorter one, or to quote the New York Fed’s excellent home page on this, “The compensation that investors require for bearing the risk that interest rates may change over the life of the bond.” More things can go wrong in a longer period of time, so it’s natural to regard longer-term investing as risky, but exactly how much of a premium do investors get for buying bonds for the long term? As with another elusive but important concept, the equity risk premium (the premium you get for taking the extra risk of investing in equities rather than some risk-free investment), the term premium can only be known with certainty in hindsight. Generally, the higher the premium that investors are demanding, the greater their uncertainty about the future of the economy. A low or even negative term premium implies great confidence about the direction of the economy. That leads to a conundrum. Most of us can agree that the global economic outlook is more than usually uncertain. But sensible estimates of the term premium suggest that it’s historically low. This is the term premium as calculated by CrossBorder Capital Ltd.: And this is the term premium as calculated by the New York Fed’s ACM model (short for Adrian, Crump and Moench, its inventors): The models agree that term premia are historically low and indeed negative. CrossBorder Capital reckons the term premium is its lowest since World War II, while the the New York Fed thinks it’s slightly higher than at the height of the Covid lockdown. Either way, it’s very low. And that’s strange, as generally a fear of higher inflation (suffered by a lot of us at present) means demanding a higher term premium. You’d also expect it to be higher when the bond market is volatile, which it has been of late. So the term premium isn’t telling us what it would normally. Instead, Mike Howell of CrossBorder summarizes the possible explanations as follows: • There’s a big recession coming (so people are desperate for safe assets). • There’s a shortage of collateral in the system (so people pay up for long bonds). • There’s a lack of liquidity in the system. Howell gives greatest weight to the last two, and suggests that regulators should be concerned about it. If there is excess demand for collateral and liquidity, that would also affect inflation-protected bonds. Inflation breakeven forecasts derived from the bond markets have been reassuringly low for most of the last two years; this might explain why, and show that breakevens aren’t sending a good signal. Beyond that, if technical factors are depressing term premiums, it could also mean that other bond market indicators of the economy cannot be trusted. Which brings us to…. The Yield Curve My colleague Bob Burgess has a long analysis about this today that is worth reading. An inverted yield curve (in which short-term yields are higher than longer-dated bonds) is held to portend a recession. When it’s imminent, you should expect the inversion to extend along the curve, with three-month yields exceeding 10-years. On that basis, the most popular version of the curve is its most inverted since 2000, and the three-month/10-year curve is now close to inversion. So that looks terrifying: How seriously should we take this? Again, extreme-low term premiums, for reasons that don’t seem to be tied to the economy, tend to imply that this could be a false signal. Bond yields are obeying the normal rules of supply and demand, which are usually driven by the economy — but on this occasion, maybe they aren’t sending such a clear signal. An inverted curve doesn’t cause a recession, as Burgess points out, but usually the forces that create a recession also drive an inversion. This time, maybe we can ignore the yield curve. But to quote the cliche, that does commit economic bulls to saying that it’s different this time, and those are the most dangerous words in finance. Quantitative Tightening (Very Very Frightening) Interest rates take up most attention, but the decisions the Federal Reserve — and other central banks — have to make about bringing their balance sheets down to size promise to be even more important. The last time the Fed attempted quantitative tightening (QT), in 2018 and 2019, it was forced to reverse course by ructions in the repo market. And QT to date has had a tiny impact on the official size of the balance sheets of both the Fed and the European Central Bank: Quantitative easing (QE) is widely seen as the preeminent driver of markets during the post-crisis decade. Could QT have a similar impact? Howell of CrossBorder argues that it could well. What matters is the effective balance sheet, which measures how much liquidity the Fed puts into the system. Not all possible actions change liquidity, and a raft of technical factors this year have stopped the balance sheet from contracting much so far. Once it does start to contract, however, it can be expected to have a non-linear effect on stock markets. Since the first Covid shutdown, stocks have tended to rise and fall with liquidity injections by the Fed. As this chart from CrossBorder shows, if the balance sheet is to shrink back to pre-Covid levels, the stock market could be vulnerable to fall much farther: Liability-matching One powerful downward force on yields comes from the need for defined benefit pension funds to guarantee their liabilities — the pensions they have promised to their members. Higher bond yields make it cheaper to buy the annuities that back pensions, and so when yields rise high enough to allow managers to match their liabilities, they have a big incentive to buy bonds and lock in those yields while they can. That is certainly part of the reason for the heavy demand for bonds in the last few months, and at least in part explains why bond yields have fallen since June. As this chart from the consulting actuaries at Mercer show, the rise in yields of the last year has allowed corporate pension funds to eliminate their deficits (meaning their assets are now worth more than their liabilities) for the first time since the crash of 2008. If bond yields are at a level that allows them to guarantee that their status stays that way, they can be expected to buy more bonds: It’s possible to lump liability-matching regulations as part of “financial repression” — measures by the government to force investors to lend to the state at uneconomically low interest rates. But a looming pension crisis has been one of the greatest fears of the last decade. If it can be averted, that would be one of the few genuinely positive financial developments of the last few months. But, yet again, liability-matching implies that the signals from the bond market don’t mean all that they usually mean. Inflation By the time you read this, the July US inflation data should almost be here. To make sure some important second-tier data on prices and the labor market don’t get forgotten in the rush, let me point out that unit labor cost data for the second quarter show the fastest year-on-year rise since 1982. Higher wage pressure and a problem maintaining productivity will do that. That suggests that risks of a wage-price spiral remain intact. It also suggests that price/earnings multiples for stocks are at present way over-optimistic. Over time, growth in unit labor costs and earnings multiples (shown inverted on the chart below) have had a strong inverse relationship — if labor costs are rising fast, all else equal, you should expect multiples to drop: Why isn’t the market re-rating stocks this way? The concern about labor costs is primarily about profit margins. If companies can pass those costs on to customers in higher prices, and maintain those margins, then there’s less need to cut their valuation. And one of the most important points to emerge from the second-quarter earnings season is that companies do indeed have pricing power. They’re worried about their margins, as they should be, but so far they’re managing to maintain them. This was a pleasant surprise for analysts; revenues exceeded expectations by 2%, but profits beat forecasts by 5%. Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s David Kostin has published his quarterly “Beige Book” on the main points to emerge from executives’ earnings calls. Margins and pricing power were on the list. This was his summary: Profit margins remained a top priority for company managements in 2Q. On last quarter’s earnings calls, firms highlighted rising input costs as one of the largest headwinds to their earnings. 2Q earnings calls have revealed that input costs remain a key issue for managements, particularly as economic growth has started to slow and focus has once again turned to margin stability over sales and earnings growth. In order to offset the impact of input cost pressures, firms continue to leverage pricing power. Companies have noted that consumer demand has remained robust in the face of price increases implemented over 2Q. Some companies plan on taking even further pricing action as higher commodity prices have placed further strain on margins. All of this is great news if you’re a shareholder, and not so good if you’re a consumer or central banker hoping for lower inflation. Finally, the National Federation of Independent Business published its latest monthly survey of smaller businesses. The bad news is that the number complaining of rising prices and difficulty recruiting people remains near all-time highs. The good news is that these have at least been reduced from even more extreme levels earlier this year: These are not numbers to suggest that the inflation problem is going away. They do at least suggest that the economy is now moving in the right direction. Now for some Wednesday morning excitement (or afternoon if you’re in Europe, or a nightcap for those in Asia). The Only Way Is Tech If you’re looking for a culprit for stock markets’ volatility in recent years, perhaps blame tech stocks. The sector has an unparalleled impact on the overall performance of US equities. If nearly 100 years of history are any guide, the S&P 500 only outperforms when the tech sector does so as well. The line graph by the Leuthold Group below shows the relative total return back to 1926 for the the sector: The letters, as seen above, highlight major periods when the sector outperformed and underperformed. The chart below shows six significant periods of when tech outperformance pulled the benchmark index higher. Of these leadership cycles, only the period between December 1964 to November 1967 (G) saw the S&P 500 make an annualized price gain in modest single digits. The rest saw hefty double-digit gains of up to 36%: In contrast, when tech lagged, the benchmark index saw two annualized price declines, and two with gains of less than 2%. The only stronger performance than this came in the years before 1992. For nearly three decades, then, tech outperformance has behaved almost as a prerequisite for market outperformance: To view the relationship differently, this is how the tech sector of the S&P 500 has performed relative to the rest of the index, mapped against the performance of the S&P itself. The tendency to rise and fall with tech is evident: At present, the S&P 500 is down 13.6% year-to-date with 151 trading days gone. Tech stocks, represented by the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100, are still lower by 20.2% for the year, while the S&P 500 tech sector is down 17.3%. But what do tech stocks have that others do not? The Leuthold Group laid out how each sector performed compared to the stock market. It found that for all months in which tech shares outperformed, the average annualized price return of the benchmark index was 27.2%, compared to -9.3% for all months when it lagged. The entire sector functions like a highly leveraged version of the overall stock market: Other sectors such as durables, manufacturing and financials did display similar directional effects, but not on the same magnitude as tech. Here’s Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist at the Leuthold Group: “For nearly 100 years, the tech sector has had a domineering influence on the stock market versus any other segment, both in terms of satisfying/disappointing performance and the frequency of losses... the relationship between tech performance and the broad stock market has been fairly persistent. Over rolling 240-month periods since 1926, when tech was in the lead, the S&P 500’s annualized return was typically near 20% or higher, and it was negative almost every time tech was trailing.” This is why Paulsen says it’s not surprising that the performance of high-beta tech strongly correlates with broad stock market results, while sectors commonly considered market barometers, like energy, have not been useful gauges. Put differently, tech has led the economy for decades, and its success has been critical in allowing other sectors to raise their profits. Hence the entire stock market begins to look like one big play on technology. Ann Miletti, head of active equity at Allspring Global Investments, put it this way: “If you look at margin improvement across the indices, it’s improved because technology has played a bigger part in the indices as well. And so, it’s that innovation, it’s the leadership, it’s the better business models for the most part that technology has... As we look toward the future — we probably have no better proof of this story than during Covid — technology is improving all companies across all industries. So, if you think about the digitalization of our future, it’s happening on the consumer end, it’s happening on the industrial side, the companies that invested in that prior to Covid did extremely, extremely well.” In the last few days, tech stocks have been under duress as investors turn more cautious ahead of the next wave of macro data, headlined by Wednesday’s CPI release. The big question now to Paulsen is: Has the tech rally peaked? “A reasonable argument could be made that last year’s tech rollover may have marked the top of another major leadership cycle. However, our guess is the economic recovery is in a mid-cycle pause rather than an imminent recession. If that is true, the underperformance of tech stocks may already be ending. The valuation of the technology sector is far more attractive today than at the end of the dot-com cycle.” That of course isn’t difficult; the tech sector traded at a trailing earnings multiple of 80, and nobody thinks that should be repeated. Its slide from 35 at the beginning of this year to its current level of 27 (even after its rebound) does suggest that it’s more buyable, however. Paulsen suggests that we should be due more tech outperformance — and by this logic, even with weak growth, that would imply that the broader stock market should grow too. Let’s hope he’s right. — Isabelle Lee Survival Tips Lamont Dozier, part of the legendary Holland-Dozier-Holland songwriting team that penned most of the Motown songs you’ve ever heard, has passed.

MANILA, Philippines — The Bay Area Dragons have added three stars from the Chinese Basketball Association to complete a roster that already contains former NBA players Andrew Nicholson and Myles Powell and the aptly named Big Liu for the inaugural season of the revamped East Asia Super League. The eight-team league will launch in October and feature the winners and runners-up from the Japanese, South Korean and Philippines leagues as well as the Taiwanese champions and the Bay Area Dragons, who will also be playing in the Philippines league. Zhu, a forward who played with Sichuan in the CBA and was the fourth overall pick in the 2020 CBA draft, said he’s looking forward to the challenge with the Dragons and “being part of the new face of Chinese basketball.” Ju, a 10-year CBA veteran who has spent the last three seasons with the Shanghai Sharks, said the lure was being part of “the first fully professional Chinese club to play internationally.” The Bay Area Dragons have recruited players from across greater China. “When we started building this team, we wanted to aim for a mixture of youth and experienced guys. Ju Mingxin is the perfect balance in this mix,” Dragons head coach Brian Goorjian said. “His years of experience in the CBA will be a huge asset for our team, and he is also only 29 . . . He’s stepping into his prime years as a player.” Goorjian, who coached Australia’s national team to a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics and has been a multiple coach of the year winner in Australia’s National Basketball League, will also be reuniting with Liu Xiaoyu. Liu won CBA championships with the Guangdong Southern Tigers and also played for the Shanghai Sharks and Beijing Ducks and represented China’s national team. “The Dragons are a one-of-a-kind team,” he said. “I previously played under Coach Goorjian with Shanghai and I’m very excited to be back with him.” Liu Chuanxing, a 22-year-old, 2.25-meter (7-foot-5) center for China’s national team, was among the first 10 players who signed for the Dragons after a brief stint in Australia, where he was widely known as Big Liu. The Bay Area Dragons will play exhibitions later this month before joining the Philippine Basketball Association’s Commissioner’s Cup as a guest team. Their first game in the EASL home-and-away season is scheduled for Oct. 12 against the PBA runners-up. The pan-regional basketball league has started production on a reality series covering the inaugural season of the EASL. South Korean film director John H. Lee will lead the project and work with executive producers Ezra Holland, director of CTRL Media owned by former NBA star Steve Nash. ___ More AP Asia sports: https://apnews.com/hub/sports-asia and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports

Hello, Lincoln! First, I want to thank you for welcoming my wife Suzi and me back into this beautiful and vibrant community. Any community willing to rededicate a magnificent water fountain as a tribute to its teachers, as Lincoln recently did with the Cascade Fountain in the Sunken Gardens, is a place where I am proud to live. It is evident in every conversation I have that Lincoln values education, our schools, and the countless individuals who work daily to ensure our children have what they need to learn and grow. I have already toured numerous schools and programs during my first 40 days as the superintendent of Lincoln Public Schools, and I have witnessed thousands of students and staff actively engaged over the summer. I have also observed the valuable community partnerships LPS has thoughtfully cultivated to offer our children and families more choices while mapping their educational journey. People are also reading… When I interviewed for the superintendent’s position last spring, I laid out my transition plan for the Lincoln Board of Education. It includes meeting with as many community groups and individuals as possible in my first 100 days to better understand our strengths, opportunities and needs. This work will help us craft a clear vision for moving the school district forward -- not my vision, but our collective vision. Lincoln Public Schools has so many things going well, yet we know there are areas where we can continue to improve. One key to moving our school district forward will be to maintain current relationships as we build new ones within all levels of our organization. We will do this in part by continuing to be transparent and openly communicate our progress towards our goal of educating and providing meaningful opportunities for all students who enter our schools. We are accountable to you, our community. Our nation’s founders understood the importance public education has on creating and maintaining a free republic -- the cornerstone of our democracy. We also know that public education is a principal foundation for any thriving community, and our schools' success is our collective responsibility. The best education is provided in schools that embrace children of all religious, social and ethnic backgrounds. Our students need us -- our entire community -- to provide these opportunities and support them as they discover their potential and their passions. For those I have met already, you may have heard me speak about one of my loves -- besides my family and my work in education -- and that is the arts. When I was in second grade at Linden Elementary in Fremont, I sat in awe as I watched Ernie from Sesame Street play a drum set. I knew then I, too, wanted to learn how to play the drums. I did what any curious child would do, and I went to my music teacher at school and asked him to teach me how to play the drums. Mr. Olson could have easily dismissed my request and instructed me to come back when I was a fifth-grade student - the typical grade when elementary students started playing an instrument. Instead, Mr. Olson nurtured my interest and not only procured a snare drum for me but a place to store and practice my instrument at school as I was afraid my new treasure might be stolen or damaged. He continued patiently working with me outside of the school day, on his own time, to build my skills and my passion for music. This same support is what our teachers, staff members, administrators and our Board of Education do every single day. It is what drives them. They dedicate their skills, expertise and resources to connecting our students with new growth opportunities. I am asking you, our beloved and respected community, to continue supporting our mission of focusing on students’ needs and fostering their growth. You can do this in many ways, but you can start by joining the conversation, visiting and volunteering in our schools and learning about what we do and why we do it. We are proud to serve our students. All are welcome and expected to be given extraordinary opportunities for growth in the Lincoln Public Schools.

Israeli troops killed three Palestinian militants and wounded dozens in a shootout that erupted during an arrest raid in the city of Nablus in the occupied West Bank on Tuesday. The deaths came a day after a ceasefire ended three days of fighting between Israel and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad militant group in the Gaza Strip. Israeli police said security forces encircled the home of Ibrahim al-Nabulsi, who they say was wanted for a string of shootings in the West Bank earlier this year. They confirmed that al-Nabulsi and another Palestinian militant were killed in a shootout at the scene, and that troops found arms and explosives in his home. The Israeli military said that troops came under attack from Palestinians throwing rocks and explosives, and that soldiers responded with live fire. It confirmed Palestinians were shot but did not elaborate on their condition. The Palestinian Health Ministry said that three people were killed — al-Nabulsi, Islam Sabouh and Hussein Jamal Taha — and at least 40 others were wounded. The armed wing of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah party, the Al-Aqsa Martyr’s Brigade, later claimed the three as its members and vowed retaliation. The Fatah party said the organisation “mourns its martyred sons” and said the three had “sacrificed their lives in defence of our great people and their right to freedom and independence”. Israel has conducted near nightly arrest raids in the West Bank in recent months as part of a crackdown on Palestinian militant groups, particularly Islamic Jihad, in the aftermath of a string of attacks targeting Israelis earlier this year that left 19 people dead. Dozens of Palestinians have been killed in clashes with Israeli troops during these arrest raids. Last week, Israel arrested Bassam al-Saadi, a senior Islamic Jihad militant in the West Bank city of Jenin, during one of the nightly operations. The group said it was going “on alert,” and on Friday, Israel launched a series of strikes on Islamic Jihad targets in the Gaza Strip in what it said was a response to an “imminent threat” by the militant group. During the three days of Gaza fighting, at least 46 Palestinians were killed, including 16 children and four women, and 311 were wounded, the Palestinian Health Ministry said. Twelve of those killed were Islamic Jihad militants, one was from a smaller armed group, and two were Hamas-affiliated policemen who were not taking part in the fighting, according to the armed factions. Israel estimated that a total of 47 Palestinians were killed, including 14 killed by misfired Islamic Jihad rockets. It said 20 militants and seven civilians died in Israeli air strikes and that it was still investigating six deaths. Israel’s caretaker prime minister, Yair Lapid, applauded the co-operation by Israeli security personnel and said that al-Nabulsi’s killing “was another step in our uncompromising struggle against terrorism”. Nabil Abu Rdeneh, a spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, warned that continued violence could further ignite the region, and accused the Israeli government of shedding Palestinian blood to secure internal political capital ahead of November parliamentary elections. Israel captured the West Bank in the 1967 Middle East war and the Palestinians seek it as the heartland of their future state. Israel views the West Bank as the biblical and historical heartland of the Jewish people and has constructed dozens of settlements, now home to over 400,000 Israelis. The Palestinians and much of the international community consider Israel’s West Bank settlements a violation of international law and an obstacle to a peaceful resolution of the decades-long conflict.

The fertility rate in England and Wales has risen for the first time in around a decade, figures have confirmed. There were 624,828 live births registered in England and Wales in 2021, up 1.8% from 2020, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said. It is the first annual increase in live births since 2015, although this remains below the number of births registered in 2019. And the latest year “remains in line” with the long-term trend of falling live births since before the coronavirus pandemic, the ONS said. The total fertility rate increased to 1.61 children per woman in 2021 from 1.58 in 2020 – the first time it has risen since 2012. This is the average number of live children that a woman would bear if they experienced the age-specific fertility rates of 2021 throughout their childbearing years. The 2021 total fertility rate still remained below the rate observed in 2019. The ONS figures are based on birth registrations, and delays mean some births in 2021 may not be covered. It follows provisional data, based on NHS births notifications data, published by the ONS in March. Within the overall increase in fertility, rates fell among younger groups and rose in older women. The largest decrease was among women and girls under 20 years old (16%), while women aged 35 to 39 saw fertility rates increase by 5%. Fertility rates increased across all regions of England in 2021, except for London and the West Midlands. The figures also show there were 2,597 stillbirths in 2021, an increase of 226 from 2020. Of the total number of live births in 2021, 445,055 were to UK-born women, 179,726 were to non-UK-born women, and in 47 births the country of the mother was not stated. The percentage of live births to non-UK-born women decreased to 28.8% in 2021 from 29.3% in 2020. This was similar to the percentage in 2019 and the result of a higher number of UK-born women giving birth. Romania became the most common country of birth for non-UK-born mothers in 2021, while Pakistan remained the most common country of birth for non-UK-born fathers.

Quarterly Qualitative Information on Business Results (1) Qualitative Information on Business Results During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the outlook for the Japanese economy remains uncertain due to concerns about a slowdown in the economy due to rising prices for energy and raw materials, against backdrop of worsening conditions in Ukraine and a weakening yen, despite the trend toward recovery amid the low number of new infections of COVID-19 and the normalization of socio-economic activities. The consumer finance industry's recovery trend continued as the number of new contracts at major companies increased year-on-year. In addition, although interest repayment claims have been steadily decreasing, it still requires close monitoring as it is easily affected by changes in the external environment. Under these circumstances, in order to realize AIFUL Group's management theme "Go (new) Standard -Deepening Customer Orientation-", the Company will focus on "diversification of business portfolio" through business diversification and strengthening overseas businesses, etc., and "utilization of digital technologies," such as IT technology analysis and in-house production of systems. At the same time, we will strive to expand assets by balancing "growth potential" and "profitability" and optimize management resources to maximize consolidated income, while responding to requests for interest repayment, which is one of our management issues. (Overview of the results) AIFUL Group's consolidated operating revenue for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023 rose 7.3% year on year, to 34,692 million yen. The principal components were 20,027 million yen in interest on loans (up 7.7% year on year), 4,909 million yen in revenue from the credit card business (up 10.3% year on year) and 4,052 million yen in revenue from the credit guarantee business (up 4.8% year on year). Operating expenses increased by 1,461 million yen, or 5.5% year on year to 28,082 million yen. This was mainly due to an increase in advertising expenses by 1,152 million (up 45.3% year on year). As a result, AIFUL Group posted operating profit of 6,609 million yen (up 15.8% year on year) and ordinary profit of 6,714 million yen (up 17.5% year on year). Profit attributable to owners of parent stood at 5,945 million yen (up 18.6% year on year), reflecting a profit attributable to non-controlling interests of 148 million yen. (2) Qualitative Information on the Forecasts for the Consolidated Business Results The Group's earnings forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023 remains unchanged from the earnings forecast announced on May 11, 2022.

Butters throws support behind Power coach Port Adelaide young gun Zak Butters has thrown his support behind Ken Hinkley, despite the club dropping out of the AFL finals race early in their coach's 10th season in charge. The Power played in back-to-back preliminary finals in the past two seasons but, after losing their last four matches, are now certain to finish outside the top eight for the fifth time under Hinkley. Club president David Koch this week refused to guarantee Hinkley would lead the Power next year but Butters wants the coach to at least fulfill the remaining year on his contract. "100 per cent I want Kenny at the top and Kenny leading us boys," Butters said. "He's done a bulk of work in the last four years since I've been at the club. "He's helped me so much on-field and off-field, so I definitely want him as my coach next year." After a shock 0-5 start to the season, the Power won eight of their next 11 matches to fight their way back into finals contention but have been unable to maintain that momentum later in the year. At 8-12 the Power have slumped to 12th-place and face Essendon this week before a final-round Showdown against Adelaide (7-13) that could decide which of the crosstown rivals finish higher on the ladder. With finals already out of reach, the Power are targeting a strong end to the year to at least finish it sitting above the Crows. "I think everyone is pretty aware that's the case," Butters said about the risk of dropping below the Crows next week. "The boys certainly won't let that happen. We want to win the next two games, starting this weekend and then the Showdown." The 21-year-old Butters was this week named in the AFL Players' Association's 22under22 squad of 40 players along with teammate Connor Rozee. Butters has bounced back from an injury-interrupted 2021 to average a career-high 22 disposals and three clearances a game this year. He was also named in the 22under22 squad in 2020 and hopes to use the recognition as extra motivation to become one of the leading players at the Power next year. "It's definitely an honour to be amongst some great young players," Butters said. "I hold high expectations of myself and I'm sure those around me do as well. "I think I should be putting myself in the mix and being one of the best players at the club. "I don't think I'm too far off it. But I definitely think there is still a lot of room for improvement and that's what excites me."

Dragons complete roster with 3 players from Chinese league MANILA, Philippines (AP) - The Bay Area Dragons have added three stars from the Chinese Basketball Association to complete a roster that already contains former NBA players Andrew Nicholson and Myles Powell and the aptly named Big Liu for the inaugural season of the revamped East Asia Super League. The Dragons on Wednesday confirmed Zhu Songwei, Ju Mingxin and Liu Xiaoyu have signed from the CBA, joining the new club which will be based in Manila for Season 1 of the EASL. The eight-team league will launch in October and feature the winners and runners-up from the Japanese, South Korean and Philippines leagues as well as the Taiwanese champions and the Bay Area Dragons, who will also be playing in the Philippines league. Zhu, a forward who played with Sichuan in the CBA and was the fourth overall pick in the 2020 CBA draft, said he's looking forward to the challenge with the Dragons and "being part of the new face of Chinese basketball." Ju, a 10-year CBA veteran who has spent the last three seasons with the Shanghai Sharks, said the lure was being part of "the first fully professional Chinese club to play internationally." The Bay Area Dragons have recruited players from across greater China.

Murray, File) "When we started building this team, we wanted to aim for a mixture of youth and experienced guys. Ju Mingxin is the perfect balance in this mix," Dragons head coach Brian Goorjian said. "His years of experience in the CBA will be a huge asset for our team, and he is also only 29 . . . He´s stepping into his prime years as a player." Goorjian, who coached Australia's national team to a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics and has been a multiple coach of the year winner in Australia's National Basketball League, will also be reuniting with Liu Xiaoyu. Liu won CBA championships with the Guangdong Southern Tigers and also played for the Shanghai Sharks and Beijing Ducks and represented China's national team. "The Dragons are a one-of-a-kind team," he said. "I previously played under Coach Goorjian with Shanghai and I´m very excited to be back with him." Liu Chuanxing, a 22-year-old, 2.25-meter (7-foot-5) center for China´s national team, was among the first 10 players who signed for the Dragons after a brief stint in Australia, where he was widely known as Big Liu. The Bay Area Dragons will play exhibitions later this month before joining the Philippine Basketball Association's Commissioner´s Cup as a guest team. Their first game in the EASL home-and-away season is scheduled for Oct. 12 against the PBA runners-up.

Rishi Sunak has suggested he could offer hundreds of pounds in extra support to those shouldering the rising cost-of-living burden after analysts delivered a shock warning that energy bills could top £4,200 in the new year. The two remaining contenders in the Tory leadership race faced renewed calls to spell out how they would help after Cornwall Insight forecast average bills could hit about £3,582 in October, from £1,971 today, before rising further in January. The former chancellor has said he has “no doubt” extra support will be needed to get people through the winter, and he is “confident” he can find the money needed to ease the strain from Government efficiency savings. Quizzed on how much extra he would be prepared to hand out, Mr Sunak told ITV News that bills look set to increase by “a few hundred pounds more”, and “that’s the kind of scale that I did before”. Pressed on whether “we’re talking a few hundred pounds more here”, he said: “Yes.” Liz Truss, meanwhile, refused to commit to extra support for families struggling with the cost of living, again insisting her priority was driving through tax cuts to kick-start the economy. Speaking during a campaign visit to Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, the Foreign Secretary said that if she became prime minister she would “see what the situation is like” in the autumn. However, in a fresh swipe at Mr Sunak’s record at the Treasury, she said that with the tax burden at a 70-year high, the priority had to be economic growth, with a package of emergency tax cuts. “What I am talking about is enabling people to keep more money in their own pockets,” she said. “What I don’t believe in is taxing people to the highest level in 70 years and then giving them their own money back. We are Conservatives. We believe in low taxes. “Of course, we will need to deal with the circumstances as they arise. We will see what the situation is like in the autumn, but I am committed to making sure people are supported and I am committed to growing the economy.” Mr Sunak, in his interview with ITV News, claimed Ms Truss’s tax-cutting plans would not provide “any help” for the least well-off. He acknowledged he is “definitely the underdog” in the race to be the next prime minister, but said he is “giving it absolutely everything I’ve got”. The former chancellor also addressed his controversial comments about diverting funding from “deprived urban areas”, insisting it is “incredibly wrong” to suggest there is no poverty elsewhere. According to the New Statesman magazine, the Tory leadership hopeful told party members in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, that he had started changing public funding formulas to ensure “areas like this are getting the funding they deserve”. But Mr Sunak told ITV “it’s not about Tunbridge Wells”, arguing that he had been speaking to people in a “broader rural area”. Asked if the Treasury was pumping too much money into places like the site of his interview on Tuesday, near Newcastle, he said: “Yeah.” He added: “There are pockets of poverty that exist everywhere. They’re not just in big urban cities. They’re in small towns. They’re in smaller cities. They are in rural areas. There’s poverty everywhere that we need to tackle and make sure gets the investment it needs.” Earlier, Money Saving Expert’s Martin Lewis appealed to the two contenders to bury their differences to tackle the problem together, warning the country was facing a “national cataclysm”. “They are all in the same party, let’s call on them to come together for the good of the nation rather than personal point-scoring,” he said. Ms Truss has been under fire from Mr Sunak after she suggested at the weekend that there should be no more “handouts”. A spokesman for his campaign said: “Liz Truss has doubled down, refusing five times to say she will provide direct support for British families and pensioners this winter. “Liz’s plan will not touch the sides for the majority of British families this winter and pensioners will get no help whatsoever. It seems she is divorced from reality.” Mr Sunak has pointed out that, as chancellor, he provided £15.3 billion in targeted support for families – with at least £1,200 for eight million of the most vulnerable households. In a statement, he said that if he became prime minister, he would act again once it became clear how much bills would rise. However, Defence Secretary Ben Wallace, who is backing Ms Truss, said the scale of the impending price rises meant it was “fraudulent” to suggest the problem could be resolved by Government alone. “We are all feeling it in our pocket. And the idea there is a magic wand coming out of Whitehall – no matter who is prime minister, including the Labour Party – is fraudulent to say so,” he said. Ms Truss also hit back at a warning by Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab, who supports Mr Sunak, that her plan for emergency tax cuts was an “electoral suicide note” that could let in a Labour government. “I don’t agree with these portents of doom. I don’t agree with this declinist talk, I believe our country’s best days are ahead of us,” she said.

PHOENIX (AP) — Pittsburgh infielder Rodolfo Castro lost his phone on the field and the Pirates were stymied by rookie Tommy Henry in a 6-4 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday night. Henry (1-1) was sharp in his Chase Field debut, allowing a run on four hits in seven innings for his first big league win. Castro made a different kind of noise after being called up from Triple-A Indianapolis — with his phone. The second-year second baseman walked in the fourth inning and went to third on Oneil Cruz’s single. Castro slid headfirst into the bag to beat the throw and the impact from his back pocket. Third base umpire Adam Hamari immediately saw the phone and pointed to it on the ground. The 23-year-old Castro picked up the phone and handed it to Pirates third base coach Mike Rebelo, who had an exasperated look on his face before taking it. Major League Baseball has cracked down on technology being used on the field since the Houston Astros used live TV feeds to steal opposing teams’ signs during their run to the 2017 World Series championship and part of the 2018 season. Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow and manager A. J. Hinch were suspended for the 2020 season. The Astros also were fined $5 million and forfeited their first- and second-round picks in 2020 and 2021. No word on if Castro had the ringer on vibrate. Mark Melancon worked around a walk in the ninth for his 16th save. Zach Thompson (3-9) took the loss. DIAMONDBACKS MOVES Arizona recalled OF Cooper Hummel and optioned C Jose Herrera to Triple-A Reno. Hummel, who primarily played outfield in his first stint with Arizona, will back up catcher Carson Kelly. Hummel hit .171 with two homers and 11 RBIs in 50 games with the Diamondbacks earlier in his rookie season. Herrera hit .189 with five RBIs in 47 games with the Diamondbacks. PIRATES MOVES The Pirates optioned OF Cal Mitchell to Triple-A Indianapolis when they called up Castro. Mitchell hit .204 with four homers in 44 games with Pittsburgh. UP NEXT Diamondbacks LHP Madison Bumgarner (6-10, 3.96 ERA) is 4-1 with a 3.44 ERA his last six home starts heading into Wednesday’s game against Pittsburgh RHP Mitch Keller (3-8, 4.21). ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports

Newcastle midfielder Jonjo Shelvey is facing up to three months on the sidelines after undergoing surgery to address a hamstring injury. The PA news agency understands 30-year-old Shelvey will be out of action for around 12 weeks following the procedure at the weekend. That means he could be unavailable to head coach Eddie Howe until Boxing Day at the earliest, with the Premier League breaking in mid-November for the World Cup finals. Shelvey, who had returned to Tyneside following his summer break in excellent shape after working with a personal trainer in Turkey, suffered the injury during the club’s friendly defeat by Benfica in Portugal on July 26. The development will come as a major blow to a man who revealed during the closed season that he needs to make just three more senior appearances to trigger a contract extension. Shelvey was a key member of the side who fought their way to Premier League safety under Howe last season having forced his way back into the team in the wake of Steve Bruce’s departure. The excellence of January signing Bruno Guimaraes and Sean Longstaff’s return to form will mitigate his absence to an extent, but the variety provided by a midfielder described at the weekend by Howe as “unique” will be missed. Shelvey’s misfortune may cement 19-year-old Elliot Anderson’s place in the squad at St James’ Park, with the prospect of another loan move after his hugely successful spell at Bristol Rovers last season seemingly having receded further.

Met ÉIreann have issued some handy tips and tricks to the public to help out on Wednesday, as parts of the country will see temperatures hit 27C. The national forecaster has already put a high temperature warning in for Munster and Leinster which is set to kick in on Thursday, but Wednesday will also be a bit of a scorcher in parts of the country. It comes as an overall advisory for warmer conditions remains in place, having been introduced on Sunday - that's set to go until Monday morning at the earliest. And while things won't get as uncomfortably warm as 29C today, there's still some care needed, particularly if you're in three counties. Cork, Carlow and Kilkenny will get the best of things on Wednesday, according to the latest Met Éireann map. Parts of the Rebel County will top the charts with 27C, with those conditions being mirrored in the two Leinster regions. Other areas like Waterford, Kerry, the midlands and parts of Meath will suffer through with 26C heat. Paul Downes, Meteorologist with Met Éireann, explained: "For the first time this summer we can say with a high degree of confidence that heatwave criteria will be met in some parts of the country. "Unfortunately there have been a number of water related fatalities this year, and it is therefore paramount that water safety is at the forefront of our minds when it comes to enjoying the warm conditions, or seeking relief when it gets too hot. "Please follow water safety guidelines and be vigilant of those around you. Check the latest sea area and inland lakes forecasts here. "With ground conditions becoming very dry over the course of the summer, water tables are low and water should be conserved where possible. So try and only use water where necessary and avoid wastage. "With the very dry conditions and the gradual increase in temperatures exacerbating that, fire risk will be high so always make sure to properly extinguish barbeques, and avoid lighting open fires in wooded or grassland areas" Met Eireann has warned that the rising heat may lead to heat stress, especially for the more vulnerable of the population, high solar UV index and risk of water related incidents. The warning will come into effect at 12pm Thursday and will remain until 6am on Sunday.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst claimed his Rangers side played with “passion, desire and fire” to reach the Champions League play-off with a thrilling 3-0 win over Union Saint-Gilloise to go through on a 3-2 aggregate. The Light Blues had not previously overcome a 2-0 defeat away from home in the first leg of a European tie but a James Tavernier penalty just before the break at a raucous Ibrox and second-half goals from striker Antonio Colak and Malik Tillman – his first for the club – saw off the Belgian side, who finished the game with 10 men after Lazare Amani was sent off in injury time. Rangers will now play PSV Eindhoven in the play-off, with the first game at Ibrox next midweek. Gers boss van Bronckhorst, who guided the club to the Europa League final last season, said: “We needed a big performance and the pressure was on us after last week. “We know we are capable of delivering big nights for the club. But still you have to do it over and over again. “That’s why I am so proud of my players, the way they played, with passion, with desire, with fire to go to the next round. “That is the only way you have to be on the pitch, to create the atmosphere we created with the fans today. “It was an amazing night for all of us.” Van Bronckhorst admitted his heart was in his mouth at 2-0 in the second half when referee Anastasios Sidiropoulos showed defender James Sands a second yellow card for a challenge, before changing his mind after consulting his linesman. The Dutchman, who was unhappy with a penalty awarded to USG in last week’s 2-0 defeat in Belgium, said: “We knew last week wasn’t a penalty, which made it harder for us. “Today, I was happy with the decisions of the referee, of course it was in our favour. “There was one moment in the second half with James Sands, I was like, ‘this can be a very important moment for the game’. It was good that he didn’t give the yellow card and gave the ball to us. “We want to be in the Champions League and I saw the desire in my players.” The former Feyenoord player and boss looked forward to playing against PSV, coached by compatriot Ruud van Nistelrooy. He said: “It is a familiar team for me. It is great to see Ruud van Nistelrooy, again there are so many familiar faces. “I was assistant to Fred Rutten (PSV assistant) at Feyenoord a couple of years ago. “It will be nice to be back in Holland again after so many months in Glasgow – but we will prepare well. “It is a big chance to take the last hurdle and play Champions League football.” Union Saint-Gilloise boss Karel Geraerts claimed the penalty just before the break was the turning point in the game. He said: “Yes, until that moment, everything was under control. “We were aware of the first 20 minutes because everyone said they would start really hard. “We controlled everything really well and when you lose a goal it is hard to get the same scenario in the second half. “The second goal gave the opponent more confidence and the third goal…there was a problem in the defence but they made the most of the chance.”

Triathlon: First-time triathlete learns to swim in eight weeks - Published Eight weeks ago John McDermott couldn't swim and had a fear of water. He had never in his life been in a swimming pool. At the seaside, he wouldn't let the water rise above his ankles. But the 36-year-old from Strabane, County Tyrone, a keen runner and cyclist, had a burning desire to compete in a triathlon - a sport which combines swimming, cycling and running. To do that he'd need to challenge himself to overcome his fear. On 14 June, he entered a swimming pool for the first time in his life. "I signed up to the triathlon nine weeks out, my first [swimming] lesson was the following week," John told BBC Radio Foyle. He had two months to learn to swim. Last Saturday, he completed his debut triathlon, including a 350-metres open-water swim, finishing ninth in the Omagh Try A Tri event at Loughmacrory. "I am still on a high," he said. "It sounds weird to say but I felt so proud of myself. It is the biggest thing I have overcome". According to official figures, swimming is the most popular sport for adults in Northern Ireland but the thought of diving in can fill many people with dread. As many as one in every four adults in the UK struggles to swim for 25m (82ft) unaided, with many having been put off learning by a bad experience or a lifelong fear of water. John said his fear of the water had gathered its own momentum over the years. "I think it is more a confidence thing. I am scared of the unknown with the water, never really swam, actively avoided it," he said. He added: "It probably got into my own head more the longer it went on, building up, being more scared of it than I should have been". But having signed up for the triathlon there was no going back. His first lesson at the leisure centre in Ballybofey in County Donegal was a daunting experience. "That first lesson wasn't great," John said. "If I hadn't signed up for the triathlon I'm not sure I would have gone back. "The feeling of being in the pool, in the water, suddenly the enormity of the challenge was real. I had to stick with it". His determination took him back the next evening. As the weeks progressed, he found every lesson as challenging as the one before. "Every training session I had to build myself up, start nice and slow, get my face into the water. I still have to actively work at it, something I am dealing with". As the date of the triathlon loomed ever closer, John knew swimming in open water could be a whole different experience to that in the pool. He wanted to test himself in the lough. "I went three times [before the triathlon]. On the first trip again, the enormity of it all set in, it's a different type of water, it's dark, it moves in a different way," he said. On his first attempt at the 350m distance, he recorded a time of 25 minutes. Last Saturday, he finished the swim leg of the triathlon in just over 13 minutes. "I was second last out of the water, it took a while, but I was clapped like I was first out". Everyone he says, was cheering and clapping, including his wife, Grace, and their daughters Fiadh, four and Meabh, two. His family, he said, were "very proud" with all he has achieved. Now he is training for his second triathlon on 20 August in County Donegal - an event with an increased swimming distance of 450metres. - 21 April 2019 - 10 October 2018

BENGALURU, India (AP) — India took another step toward meeting its climate goals Tuesday when lawmakers in parliament’s lower house approved legislation that would require greater use of renewable energy and force industrial polluters to pay a price for the carbon they emit. The bill sets out a minimum requirement for renewable energy use for corporations and residential buildings. It also grants clean energy users carbon-saving certificates that can be sold or traded and lays out a new energy efficiency standard in homes, which account for 24% of India’s electricity use. There are also penalties for corporations who aren’t using an adequate amount of renewable energy sources to power their operations. The legislation will now go through parliament’s upper house. The bill is “a positive step” towards India’s climate targets, said Madhura Joshi, India energy transitions lead at E3G, a climate change think tank. “The share of clean energy sources powering India’s industries and homes will definitely increase as a result of this bill,” he said. Last week, India committed to reducing emissions caused by activities for the nation’s economic growth by 45% by 2030 from 2005 levels. The country also plans to get half of its energy requirements from non-fossil fuel-based energy sources by 2030, and promote a federal government program that encourages people to make green lifestyle changes. “Every unit of energy saved or conserved is critical for reducing emissions,” said Bharath Jairaj who leads the World Resources Institute’s India energy program. Including large residential buildings into building codes that require energy conservation is a key highlight of the bill and reducing emissions, he said. Scientists say cutting greenhouse gases is essential for limiting the effects of climate change, which has already brought hotter weather and more devastating floods to India. The bill is also the first time the Indian government has proposed a carbon trading system. Unlike in a few other parts of the world, the so-called carbon market is still a fledgling idea in India, Jairaj said. It is “bound to become an important tool to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in India,” he added. ___ Associated Press climate and environmental coverage receives support from several private foundations.

ATLANTA (AP) — Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams argued in a speech Tuesday that it’s time for Georgia to use its budget surplus to invest in its residents, accusing Gov. Brian Kemp and other Republicans of hurting the state by prioritizing low taxes and low spending. She also announced that she backs a state constitutional amendment to legalize casino and sports gambling, saying she wants to use it to fund need-based financial aid, guarantee free technical college and restore Georgia’s HOPE merit scholarships to students who earn a C average or better in high school. Abrams also weaved in attacks on restrictive abortion laws and loose gun laws, arguing that they too are threats to making Georgia thrive. “We can do what’s right for Georgia by investing in our economy, saving healthcare, building infrastructure and taking care of our small businesses, our workers and our bottom line,” Abrams said during the Atlanta speech. “We can turn our state around and give back what has been taken from too many Georgians.” Trailing in the polls, Abrams is focusing on the economy as she looks to press reset on an issue that has emerged as a top vulnerability for Democrats across the U.S. this year amid inflation and high gas prices. Kemp is hoping the economy is an especially potent issue for him in Georgia this year. “This team has put our state on the path to greater economic opportunity for all who call the Peach State home,” Kemp said in a campaign speech last month in the Atlanta suburb of McDonough. “We brought good paying jobs to every corner of Georgia, landed the largest economic development deals in our state’s history, passed the biggest income tax cut on record, and kept government out of your way and out of your pocket.” Kemp plans to unveil his own plans on Thursday for some of Georgia’s surplus. It will include another billion dollars in state income tax rebates, plus a property tax break for homeowners, said a Kemp campaign official with knowledge of the governor’s plans who spoke on condition of anonymity to preview the announcement. Nodding at Abrams’ work as a voting rights advocate, Kemp said she shares responsibility for surging inflation and stubbornly high gas prices by helping get Joe Biden elected. He calls it the “Biden-Abrams agenda.” Abrams and other Democrats hope to pivot away from inflation and toward ways government can help voters. Many of her plans are the same as when she ran against Kemp in 2018, including expanding the Medicaid health insurance program to all low-income adults and expanding state aid to small businesses. But in 2022, Georgia is flush with cash. The state closed its budget year in June with a roughly $5 billion surplus, atop $2.3 billion from the year before, and a legally protected $4.3 billion rainy-day fund. Abrams acknowledges austerity may have been necessary during the Great Recession. Now, though, she says Kemp’s “poverty of imagination” is foreclosing opportunity for too many. “I liken it to a company that realizes a windfall,” Abrams said in an interview with The Associated Press on Monday previewing the speech. “You can either give dividends to your wealthiest shareholders or you can invest in the infrastructure of your company so you can create more opportunities and create more revenue. I want to do the latter.” Kemp warns that increasing spending will worsen inflation and argues Abrams will ultimately seek to raise taxes after spending the surplus. “What she really believes is more government, controlling more and more of your everyday lives, and taking more of your hard-earned paychecks,” Kemp said in McDonough. Abrams flatly vows not to raise taxes and says her spending plan is sustainable. Many Democrats have long supported gambling as a way to spend more without raising taxes. Abrams on Tuesday cited her 2011 deal with Republicans to cut lottery-funded HOPE scholarship benefits to shore up a program where expenses were outstripping lottery proceeds. But now she’s proposing to undo those cuts, also partly using a giant lottery reserve fund, restoring free technical college and expanding benefits to lower-achieving students that were curtailed under that deal. Proposed gambling expansions have failed on an annual basis in the legislature, needing support of two-thirds of lawmakers before the proposed constitutional amendment could be put to voters for approval in a referendum. “We can turbocharge higher education and economic opportunity for all of Georgia’s students,” Abrams said. Abrams is trying to eclipse Kemp on some policies, arguing for another round of checks to taxpayers like Kemp’s billion-dollar state income tax rebate. Kemp has repeatedly suspended Georgia’s state gas tax for short periods, but Abrams calls for Kemp to pledge now to suspend it until the end of the year. And Abrams has pledged not to repeal a state income tax cut that could ultimately reduce taxes by $2 billion. Kemp said Abrams’ support for his proposals shows voters he’s the one to trust. “I’m running on my record. You know what Stacey Abrams’ record is? It’s going to be different tomorrow than it was today, I can tell you that,” Kemp said Thursday during a northeast Georgia campaign stop in Toccoa. Abrams notes Georgia ranked 24th among states for per-capita income in the early 2000s but has slid to 40th. Although close observers debate the cause of that, Abrams ascribes it to steering too many benefits to the rich. She said she envisions a focus on small businesses, helping minority-owned businesses catch up and promoting economic mobility in a region of the country where poor people are the least likely to get ahead. “You might assume that this is as good as it gets. It’s not true,” Abrams said. “We are entitled to more. Our taxes have paid for more and now it is time to get our money’s worth.” ___ Follow Jeff Amy at http://twitter.com/jeffamy.

Trumpworld is demanding war after the FBI searched Mar-a-Lago From pro-Trump forums calling to “lock and load” to elected Republicans attacking the DOJ, the desire for retaliation is loud and clear. Donald Trump is known for many things, none of which is his meticulous and exhaustive accounting of important documents. So it should come as no surprise that on the same day that photos surfaced of notes, apparently with Trump’s handwriting on them, being filed into a toilet, the FBI went looking at the former president’s house for documents that belonged to the federal government. On Monday evening, agents executed a search warrant on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Florida, retrieving documents and breaking open a safe at the home, Trump said. There is a version of this story that is relatively simple. After Trump was ousted from the White House, he took 15 boxes of classified documents that were supposed to be given to the National Archives at the end of his presidency, per The New York Times, as they were subject to the Presidential Records Act. That didn’t happen, and the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) kept asking for them and getting ignored. Eventually, the archives retrieved the documents from Trump’s home in January, with Trump only returning them “when there became a threat of action to retrieve them,” per the Times. But now, it seems like the feds believe there were more documents containing classified information being improperly stored at Mar-a-Lago. So the FBI — currently headed by Christopher Wray, a Trump appointee — applied for a search warrant to recover the documents, it was approved by a judge, and agents went and got boxes of files while Trump was out of town in New York. That’s it! It’s actually pretty boring, considering all of the other activity the FBI could possibly raid Trump’s home over. But that is, of course, not how Trump and his cohorts are seeing this. From the very start, they’ve been painting this raid as law enforcement throwing down the gauntlet. Trump described the FBI’s search warrant as part of a “political persecution” and said his home was “under siege, raided, and occupied.” That then set off his supporters; within about an hour of Trump announcing the FBI was at Mar-a-Lago, fans of his descended on the resort to show support for the former president. Online, talk went way beyond just showing support for Trump: It turned to literal war. Members of the pro-Trump forum TheDonald began discussing how to fight back, literally. “Lock and load,” one user posted, with others talking about how the raid is justification for civil war. Others asked, “When does the shooting start?” Talk of violence against political opponents is not new on the platform, but it seemed to escalate last night in response to the FBI’s actions. It wasn’t just anonymous posters, either. Steven Crowder, a far-right Trump backer, told his 1.9 million Twitter followers, “Tomorrow is war.” What that actually means for Crowder isn’t clear; he may well just stream his YouTube show as usual, but with a little more fiery language. But his audience might hear the call to action and actually heed it, similar to what happened on Jan. 6, 2021. Crowder wasn’t alone in the unsubtle calls to violence, either: Right-wing influencer Jesse Kelly tweeted, “Do not quote laws to men with swords.” Trumpian elected officials got in on the act, too. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy declared he’d “seen enough,” threatening Attorney General Merrick Garland with a probing investigation of the Justice Department should Republicans take back the House this fall. Paul Gosar, a far-right congressman from Arizona, tweeted that he would support “a complete dismantling and elimination of the Democrat brown shirts known as the FBI.” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene called for an effort to “Defund the FBI.” Pretty weird coming from the crowd who hates the “defund the police” movement, but here we are. Perhaps the wildest response came from Anthony Sabatini, a congressman from Florida. He called on his state’s legislature to call an emergency session and “sever all ties” with the Department of Justice and arrest any FBI agent “conducting law enforcement functions outside the purview of our State.” A magistrate judge from Florida signed the search warrant, so the implication that the FBI was operating outside of the law is nonsense, but it sure looks like Sabatini wants his state to secede. Why all this outrage over what could end up being a pretty uninteresting search and rescue of documents that should have been handed over more than a year ago? Tensions in Trumpworld are high, after a summer of congressional hearings into the Jan. 6 riot and with Trump exposed to some actual criminal inquiry in the future. The legal, procedural FBI raid presents a relatively low-stakes opportunity to plant the seeds of war — and, even more cynically, raise some money. Trump has been fundraising off the search already, and other Republicans are likely to follow with the promise to “fight back” against the FBI’s “overreach.” Welcome to American politics in 2022.

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate SAN DIEGO (AP) — After a mystifying five-game skid that included a 26-inning scoreless streak, the new-look San Diego Padres finally played the way they're supposed to after last week's blockbuster trade that brought Juan Soto to town. Manny Machado hit a game-ending, three-run homer and Soto connected for his first long ball with the Padres, who overcame a blown save by Josh Hader to beat the San Francisco Giants 7-4 on Tuesday night. Machado capped the night in dramatic fashion with his one-out shot off Tyler Rogers (2-4), a half-inning after Hader allowed three runs to let the Giants tie it. “We were looking for something to ignite our offense and our big boys got some big hits tonight," San Diego manager Bob Melvin said. “Certainly no more than Manny, who’s got a flair for the dramatic. We all know that. It was a good one to put away after looking like we had it in the ninth." The Padres started their winning rally when Jurickson Profar hit a one-out single off Rogers and Soto reached on catcher's interference. Machado then drove his 20th homer to left field and was welcomed by a wild celebration at home plate. “We definitely broke that ice today offensively, defensively,” Machado said. “Our staff as well. You know, we had a little hiccup in the ninth, but overall I think it was a good, productive day for us.” The Padres, whose offense looked miserable in two straight shutouts, had been 1-5 since acquiring Soto and Josh Bell from Washington. They hadn’t scored since the fourth inning Saturday at Dodger Stadium. Hader blew the save in his first opportunity with the Padres, allowing three runs as the Giants tied it at 4 in the ninth. He walked in two and allowed Evan Longoria's tying sacrifice fly. Profar, the left fielder, made a nice diving catch on Longoria's fly ball to save multiple runs. Hader faced seven batters and got just two outs on 37 pitches before making way for Tim Hill (3-0), who struck out Joc Pederson. Hader was trying for his major league-leading 30th save. The All-Star lefty was acquired from Milwaukee on Aug. 1, a day before the Padres landed Soto and Bell in that huge deal with the Nationals. “You pick up your teammates,” Melvin said. "Hader’s going to close plenty of games for us. Some things are kind of meant to be. We come back and pick him up. That’s what good teammates do.” Soto led off the fourth with a homer deep into the seats in right to tie the game at 1 and end San Diego's scoreless streak. He watched the ball sail out of the yard and threw his bat down while starting his trot. It was his 22nd this season. “It was very exciting, a moment like that just to get the team going,” Soto said. “It was real special for me.” It was also special that he did it at Petco Park, where fans have welcomed Soto as the jolt the Padres need with an eye toward October. "Incredible. I love the energy they bring every day, so why not do it here?” Soto said. Brandon Drury, obtained from Cincinnati last Tuesday, was robbed of a home run on a leaping catch by center fielder Mike Yastrzemski to end the inning. When the heart of the order came up in the sixth, Soto hit a leadoff double into the right field corner, advanced on Machado’s single to left and scored the go-ahead run on Bell’s single to center. Jake Cronenworth added a sacrifice fly. Bell doubled and scored on Kim Ha-seong's ground-rule double in the eighth for a 4-1 lead. Right-hander Joe Musgrove held the Giants to one run and six hits in seven innings while striking out four and walking none. Musgrove allowed LaMonte Wade Jr.'s solo homer with two outs in the first, his fifth. Giants starter Alex Cobb allowed three runs and six hits in five-plus innings, struck out seven and walked two. TRAINER'S ROOM Padres: SS Fernando Tatis Jr. hit a double, triple and walked twice in the third game of his rehab assignment with Double-A San Antonio. He had been scheduled to play CF but played SS because of slick outfield grass. The Padres anticipate the rehab assignment to last 7-10 days. He had his fractured left wrist surgically repaired in mid-March. ... C Jorge Alfaro should be able to avoid the injured list with the sore right knee that forced him out of Monday night's game, Melvin said. UP NEXT Giants RHP Jakob Junis (4-3, 3.05 ERA) and Padres LHP Sean Manaea (6-6, 4.74) are scheduled to start the series finale Wednesday afternoon. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports

PONTOTOC – Conner Armstrong and Nic Townsend are both back where they belong. Midway through last football season, Armstrong was relegated to the sidelines with a shoulder injury, forcing Townsend to move from receiver to quarterback for Pontotoc. It also took Townsend away from his cornerback position on defense. Armstrong is healthy now and back under center for his senior season, and no one is happier about that than Townsend. “It’s a big weight lifted off my shoulders,” said Townsend, who led Pontotoc to a 4-2 record and the second round of the Class 4A playoffs as quarterback. “Trying to play quarterback, that’s stressful — very stressful. Conner was still on the field with me. He helped me get through it.” Armstrong and Townsend, who’s also a senior, have played football together since the third grade. So it hasn’t taken them long to reestablish their on-field rhythm. “We have the best connection there is,” Armstrong said. “I know when he’s going to cut a route off or stop a route. My junior year was cut short, so I’m glad it’s our last year and we get to do what we’ve always done.” After sharing starting duties as a freshman, Armstrong passed for 1,645 yards, 17 touchdowns and six interceptions as a sophomore. He suffered a separated shoulder during the sixth game of the 2021 season, having thrown for 732 yards, five TDs and nine interceptions. Townsend had 30 catches for 462 yards and five touchdowns last season before moving to QB. Pontotoc is converting to the Air Raid offense this fall, which should make its passing game as dangerous as ever. “He had a couple of bad games last year, but this year we’ve simplified everything to more fit him,” coach Jeff Carter said of Armstrong. “We’re going to see more positive production out of him.” Townsend isn’t Armstrong’s only target. He’s also got senior Jaden Montgomery, who was limited to one game last year due to injury. Anthony Hurd is a shifty sophomore, senior Davion Sampson brings experience to the position, and slimmed-down junior Colton Farley has moved from tight end to the slot. The Air Raid could also offset some inexperience on the offensive line. “We feel like that fits us best, and it is much easier than the offense we ran in past years. We think that with our receivers and our linemen that that’s best for our success,” Armstrong said. The Warriors open their season Aug. 26 at home versus Shannon. Newsletters Success!

Chinese envoy tells Australia to show ‘caution’ over Taiwan By ROD McGUIRK Associated Press CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — A Chinese envoy says Australia’s recent change of government is a chance to “reset” its troubled relationship with China, but the new administration must “handle the Taiwan question with caution.” Chinese Ambassador to Australia Xiao Qian said Wedesday he was “surprised” that Australia had signed a statement with the United States and Japan that condemned China’s firing of missiles into Japanese waters in response to U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan last week. Xiao would not say when the live-fire military exercises near Taiwan might end. He told the National Press Club an announcement will be made at a “proper time.” The Chinese Foreign Ministry has accused Australia of “interfering in China’s internal affairs.”

BEIJING (AP) — Asian stocks followed Wall Street lower Wednesday ahead of U.S. inflation data that traders worry will show upward pressure on prices still is too strong for the Federal Reserve to ease off interest rate hikes. Shanghai, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Seoul declined. Oil prices edged lower. Wall Street’s benchmark S&P 500 index lost 0.4% on Tuesday for its fourth daily decline following disappointing earnings reports. Data on Wednesday are expected to show headline U.S. inflation in July eased from the previous month’s four-decade high of 9.1%. But a survey by FactSet found traders expect core inflation, which strips out volatile food and energy, leaving rent and other costs, to edge higher. That is despite other data that show economic activity cooling. Anything above 8% is “still too high” for the Fed, Tan Boon Heng of Mizuho Bank said in a report. “The fight to tackle inflation is far from over,” Tan said. The Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.6% to 3,227.98 and the Nikkei 225 in Tokyo sank 0.7% to 27,803.26. The Hang Seng in Hong Kong plunged 2.2% to 19,559.33. The Kospi in Seoul fell 0.9% to 2,480.20 and Sydney’s S&P-ASX 200 was 0.3% lower at 7,005.70. India’s Sensex opened down less than 0.1% at 58,827.86. New Zealand and Southeast Asian markets retreated. Investors worry efforts by the Fed and other central banks in Europe and Asia to cool inflation that is at multi-decade highs might derail global economic growth. On Wall Street, the S&P 500 fell to 4,122.47 while traders waited for more evidence of how aggressively the Fed might pursue more rate hikes. The Fed has raised rates four times this year, including twice by 0.75 percentage points, triple its usual margin. Investors expect another hike of 0.75 percentage points in September after data last week showed hiring was stronger than forecast. Fed officials acknowledge there is a danger the U.S. economy might tip into recession, but some point to the strong job market as evidence it can tolerate more rate hikes. The Dow slipped 0.2% to close at 32,774.41. The Nasdaq dropped 1.2% to 12,493.93. The Russell 2000 ended down 1.5%, at 1,912.89. Chipmaker Micron Technology fell 3.7% after warning investors that revenue could fall short of forecasts because of weakening demand. That warning hit other chipmakers hard, with Nvidia shedding 4%. Norwegian Cruise Line plunged 10.6% for the biggest drop in the S&P 500 after reporting disappointing results and a weak revenue forecast. Expedia fell 1.6% and American Airlines fell 2.7%. Markets also have been rattled by Russia’s war on Ukraine, which caused a spike in prices of oil, wheat and other commodities, and uncertainty about Chinese anti-virus measures that disrupted manufacturing and trade. In energy markets, benchmark U.S. crude lost 65 cents to $89.85 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell 26 cents to $90.50 on Tuesday. Brent crude, the price basis for international trading, shed 54 cents to $95.77 per barrel in London. It declined 34 cents the previous session to $96.31. The dollar declined to 134.96 yen from Tuesday’s 135.18 yen. The euro rose to $1.0217 from $1.0205.

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greek authorities say a major search and rescue operation has been launched east of the island of Karpathos after a boat reportedly carrying dozens of migrants sank during the night. The coast guard said Wednesday that 29 people, all men, had been rescued from the sea 33 nautical miles (38 miles, 61 kilometers) east southeast of Karpathos, a southeastern island between Rhodes and Crete. Those rescued were from Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran, and told authorities there had been roughly 60 to 80 people on board the vessel when it went down, the coast guard said. Those rescued said the boat had set sail from the Antalya area on the southern Turkish coast and was aiming for Italy when it ran into trouble during the night. Two coast guard patrol boats, a Greek navy vessel, an air force helicopter and at least three ships sailing nearby were participating in the search and rescue efforts, the coast guard said. The most common sea route for asylum-seekers from the Middle East, Asia and Africa has been from Turkey to nearby Greek islands. But with Greek authorities increasing patrols in the Aegean, and with reports that Turkey is summarily deporting people without allowing them to apply for asylum, many are now skirting the Greek islands and attempting to take the longer, more dangerous route directly to Italy. Greek authorities deny they carry out illegal summary deportations of asylum-seekers.

Trump says he’s testifying Wednesday in NY investigation WASHINGTON (AP) - Former President Donald Trump will be questioned under oath Wednesday in the New York attorney general’s long-running civil investigation into his dealings as a real estate mogul, he confirmed in a post on his Truth Social account. Trump’s testimony comes amid a flurry of legal activity surrounding him, taking place just days after FBI agents searched his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida as part of an unrelated federal probe into whether he took classified records when he left the White House. The New York civil investigation, led by Attorney General Letitia James, involves allegations that Trump’s company, the Trump Organization, misstated the value of prized assets like golf courses and skyscrapers, misleading lenders and tax authorities. “In New York City tonight. Seeing racist N.Y.S. Attorney General tomorrow, for a continuation of the greatest Witch Hunt in U.S. history!” Trump wrote on Truth Social, invoking his oft-repeated claims about James, who is Black, and the investigation. “My great company, and myself, are being attacked from all sides,” Trump added. “Banana Republic!” Messages seeking comment were left with James’ office and with Trump’s lawyer. Trump’s testimony is happening at a critical point in James’ investigation, midway through a pivotal week in his post-presidency. In May, James’ office said that it was nearing the end of its probe and that investigators had amassed substantial evidence that could support legal action, such as a lawsuit, against Trump, his company or both. The Republican billionaire’s deposition — a legal term for sworn testimony that’s not given in court — is one of the few remaining missing pieces, the attorney general’s office said. Two of Trump’s adult children, Donald Jr. and Ivanka, testified in the investigation in recent days, two people familiar with the matter said. The people were not authorized to speak publicly and did so on condition of anonymity. The Trumps’ testimony had initially been planned for last month but was delayed after the July 14 death of the former president’s ex-wife, Ivana Trump, the mother of Ivanka, Donald Jr. and another son, Eric Trump, who sat for a deposition in James’ investigation in 2020. On Friday, the Trump Organization and its longtime finance chief, Allen Weisselberg, will be in court seeking dismissal of tax fraud charges brought against them last year in the Manhattan district attorney’s parallel criminal probe. James, a Democrat, has said in court filings that her office has uncovered “significant” evidence that Trump’s company “used fraudulent or misleading asset valuations to obtain a host of economic benefits, including loans, insurance coverage, and tax deductions.” James alleges the Trump Organization exaggerated the value of its holdings to impress lenders or misstated what land was worth to slash its tax burden, pointing to annual financial statements given to banks to secure favorable loan terms and to financial magazines to justify Trump’s place among the world’s billionaires. The company even exaggerated the size of Trump’s Manhattan penthouse, saying it was nearly three times its actual size — a difference in value of about $200 million, James’ office said. Trump has denied the allegations, explaining that seeking the best valuations is a common practice in the real estate industry. He says James’ investigation is part of a politically motivated “witch hunt” and that her office is “doing everything within their corrupt discretion to interfere with my business relationships, and with the political process.” “THERE IS NO CASE!” Trump said in a February statement, after Manhattan Judge Arthur Engoron ruled that James’ office had “the clear right” to question Trump and other principals in his company. While James has explored suing Trump or his company, the Manhattan district attorney’s office has long pursued a parallel criminal investigation. That probe had appeared to be progressing toward a possible criminal indictment, but slowed after a new district attorney, Alvin Bragg, took office in January. A grand jury that had been hearing evidence disbanded. The top prosecutor who had been handling the probe resigned after Bragg raised questions internally about the viability of the case. Bragg has said his investigation is continuing, which means that Trump could invoke his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination and decline to answer questions from James’ investigators. According to the subpoena issued by James’ office, Trump was to appear in person at the attorney general’s office, located in a Manhattan office tower that has doubled as the fictional conglomerate Waystar Royco’s headquarters on HBO’s “Succession.” As vociferous as Trump has been in defending himself in written statements and on the rally stage, legal experts say the same strategy could backfire in a deposition setting because anything he says could potentially be used against him or his company in the criminal investigation. No former president has even been charged with a crime. In fighting to block the subpoenas, lawyers for the Trumps argued New York authorities were using the civil investigation to get information for the criminal probe and that the depositions were a ploy to avoid calling them before a criminal grand jury, where state law requires they be given immunity. Last summer, spurred by evidence uncovered by James’ office, Manhattan prosecutors filed charges against Weisselberg and the Trump Organization. Prosecutors said Weisselberg collected more than $1.7 million in off-the-books compensation. Weisselberg and the company have pleaded not guilty. Weisselberg and Eric Trump each invoked the Fifth Amendment more than 500 times when questioned by James’ lawyers during separate depositions in 2020, according to court papers. The former president could choose to do the same, but it’s likely “he’ll claim lack of knowledge on many questions,” New York University law professor Stephen Gillers said. That could be a successful strategy, since Trump is known as more of a “big-picture guy” Gillers said. “So he’ll answer the big-picture questions and those answers will be general enough to keep him out of trouble, or so his lawyers will hope.” “On the other hand, his impetuosity makes him a lawyer’s nightmare and his overconfidence may lead him astray. Whoever questions him will encourage that,” the professor added. Once her investigation wraps up, James could decide to bring a lawsuit and seek financial penalties against Trump or his company, or even a ban on them being involved in certain types of businesses. ___ Associated Press writer Jill Colvin in New York contributed to this report. ___ On Twitter, follow Michael Balsamo at twitter.com/mikebalsamo1 and Michael Sisak at twitter.com/mikesisak Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.

Popular GOP Governor Leaving Office; State Warned Liberal Leading Race for His Office Would Usher in 'San Francisco on Steroids' Despite a popular outgoing GOP governor, Republicans in Massachusetts face an uphill battle to replace him with another conservative, but two candidates believe they’re up to the task. Gov. Charlie Baker’s 69 percent approval rating puts him in a three-way tie for most popular governor in the country, according to Morning Consult, but he announced in December that he would not be running for a third term. Though both potential Republican replacements — former state representative and U.S. Senate candidate Geoff Diehl and political newcomer and businessman Chris Doughty — are trailing Democratic nominee and Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey by about 30 points in a recent Suffolk poll, they both told the Daily Caller News Foundation they’re not afraid of the challenge and that it’s critically important that a Republican end up in command in the state house come November. “Massachusetts’ state legislature is among the most liberal in the nation, as is its judiciary, and Maura Healey would be one of the most liberal governors in the country,” Doughty told the DCNF. “Without a conservative check in the governor’s office, this would be San Francisco on steroids.” “She’s a big-government ideologue that wants to take away the freedoms that our state was built on,” Diehl told the DCNF. Healey sued the Trump administration nearly 100 times as attorney general and has been accused of focusing on national culture wars rather than acting as a public servant for Massachusetts residents, according to WGBH. Every time Healey engaged in these “politically-motivated lawsuits,” Republican attorney Dan Shores said it meant “[t]hat’s one more drug dealer who goes free, or one more public official who commits an act of corruption or one more senior who’s defrauded,” WBUR reported. U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling and the left-leaning Boston Globe editorial board have also criticized Healey for insufficiently prosecuting government corruption in the overwhelmingly Democratic state government, having never charged an elected official in the state, WGBH reported. The Healey campaign did not respond to the DCNF’s request for comment. While both Doughty and Diehl are in agreement that a Healey governorship would spell disaster for Massachusetts, they disagree on the man to do it. The Donald Trump-aligned Diehl seems to be the front-runner at the moment, with a poll conducted in late June showing him up 52 percent to Doughty’s 16 percent among Republicans, though the figures are six weeks old and Doughty says his campaign has kicked things up since then. Challenging Baker — a Republican nemesis of Trump — by announcing his campaign before Baker’s decision not to run and by focussing some of his campaign messages on how Baker mishandled things in the state, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, helped Diehl earn the former president’s endorsement, and the Diehl campaign is composed of former Trump ringers, most notably Corey Lewandowski, who managed parts of Trump’s 2016 campaign. This week the Diehl campaign is flying in another staunch Trump ally, Republican South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, for a fundraising event, Diehl told the DCNF. But Doughty thinks these Trump connections make Diehl unelectable in New England. “He’s running an Alabama campaign in Massachusetts,” Doughty told the DCNF. While signs point to Trump being popular in the Massachusetts GOP, Republicans make up a small percentage of registered voters in the state, and the former president lost Massachusetts in 2020 by a margin of 2 to 1, according to WBUR. The Wrentham-based businessman and political newcomer believes that where Diehl plays into hot-button culture wars, his pragmatism and business acumen make him the right fit for Massachusetts. “I will run the state like I run my business. I will be very careful with money — we overtax and overspend in Massachusetts, and it makes us noncompetitive,” he told the DCNF, also asserting repeatedly that his chops as a “fiscal conservative” outweigh Diehls’. “Diehl voted for more spending in the state legislature than even our Democratic governor [Deval Patrick] supported when we had him,” Doughty told the DCNF. Doughty also promises to compromise with Democrats, holding a “uniting view of the world,” according to WBUR, which has drawn comparisons to other moderate Republicans who have found success in Massachusetts in the past — like Baker and Mitt Romney. “I’m not here to say bad things about other people or other parties,” Doughty told WBUR. But without Baker’s name recognition, many pundits question Doughty’s ability to succeed in a Massachusetts GOP primary when most of the state’s Republican voters are aligned with the pro-Trump wing of the party, according to WBUR. “It might be easier to pass a camel through the eye of a needle than getting a moderate through a Republican primary” in Massachusetts today, Eric Fehrnstrom, a long-time Republican consultant, told WBUR. While each candidate is facing his own challenges — Doughty immediately in the primary and Diehl in the general election — both men see national political trends and a possible “red wave” playing to their favor. President Joe Biden’s favorability has steadily decreased in Massachusetts to about 41 percent, while 48 percent disapprove according to Suffolk’s poll, which surveyed 600 Massachusetts residents between July 20 and 23 and had a margin of error of 4.5 percent. Diehl noted the “Youngkin situation, where even in blue states or purple states you’re starting to see that middle ground — including 57 percent of voters that are unregistered in Massachusetts — looking at the country and saying, ‘You know what? The Democrats haven’t done it for us.’” For his part, Doughty told the DCNF, “Geoff and I are tied pretty far behind Maura, but what’s happened in the past in Massachusetts is that Republicans catch up three or four weeks before the general election — that’s when we start getting the traction and attention of the voters.” Whether a Republican can pose a real challenge to Healey in November remains to be seen, but the next step is the party primary on Sept. 6.

Watch: It Only Takes 4 Seconds for Biden to Seemingly Forget He Just Shook Schumer's Hand President Joe Biden signed the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 into law on Tuesday at the White House. His actions during the event left viewers bewildered. The White House posted video of the full event on Twitter, including remarks from Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. Happening Now: President Biden delivers remarks and signs into law the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022. https://t.co/lk3uGKDJxO — The White House (@WhiteHouse) August 9, 2022 In one clip, Schumer shook hands with Biden before doing the same with other colleagues. Just four seconds after shaking hands with Schumer, Biden put his hand out again. He appeared confused, as if he did not remember he had just shaken hands with Schumer. All it takes is like 5 seconds for Joe Biden to forget he shook Chuck Schumer’s hand. Scary. pic.twitter.com/c4dNRRaDVO — Steve Guest (@SteveGuest) August 9, 2022 Of course, it’s impossible to know whether Biden truly forgot he had already shaken hands with Schumer. It is possible he was confused as to whether he was expected to shake Schumer’s hand a second time. In any case, Biden seemed visibly confused by what should have been a routine greeting. That is not a good look for the president of the United States. Biden has been questioned for his bizarre handshake rituals in the past. Following an April 14 speech at North Carolina A&T State University, Biden appeared to try to shake hands with thin air. Five days after this incident, Politico issued a fact-check assuring Americans that Biden was not, in fact, losing his mind. “We took a look at those clips and the full videos of Biden’s speech,” Politico reported. “They don’t add up to the claim that he was trying to shake hands with thin air — different angles show that he was gesturing toward onlookers behind him.” You see, Biden is not a confused old man. He was just gesturing to the crowd. After all, Politico said so, and everyone knows Politico is completely infallible. Maybe Biden was not confused on Tuesday, either. Maybe he was just “gesturing” to Schumer that he would like another handshake just seconds after the first one. Once Biden took the podium to speak about his signing of the CHIPS and Science Act, he was constantly nagged by a terrible cough. Biden is coughing so much during his speech that he can barely talk pic.twitter.com/sSYkhIMtgW — Washington Free Beacon (@FreeBeacon) August 9, 2022 Biden was cleared to leave quarantine just two days prior to this speech, ABC News reported. He had tested positive for a rebound infection of COVID-19 on July 30. Tuesday’s speech once again showed a president who is suffering both physical and mental decline.

Former Sri Lanka cricketer Mahela Jayawardene is worried about KL Rahul's form, saying lack of cricket at the highest level could become a concern for India in the upcoming Asia Cup. KL Rahul was in great form during the 2022 Indian Premier League as he scored 616 runs for Lucknow Super Giants. Since then, he has not played any competitive cricket due to his battle against injuries and Covid-19, when he was about to make a comeback. "That (Rahul's lack of cricket) would be a concern for India," Jayawardene told ICC. "He has been out for a little while since the IPL, so having game time is quite crucial especially out there in the middle. The sooner he can get some game time and get that confidence back, is always going to help him, as well as the national team." Jayawardene also suggested that if KL Rahul fails to return to his absolute best form at the Asia Cup then the Indian think tank should consider wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant as an opener as the T20 World Cup looms. Rishabh Pant has opened the batting for India in T20Is only twice, but Jayawardena feels Pant has the capability to do well as an opener. Pant opened alongside captain Rohit Sharma during the second and third T20I matches against England. "Even though he (Pant) hasn’t done that (open the batting) much in domestic cricket, he has the capacity to do that. Wherever he bats, you’re not going to change his game. He is going to be a very natural player so yes, it is an option (for Pant to open)." The Asia Cup is scheduled to begin on August 27 in the UAE. India will begin their campaign against arch-rivals Pakistan on August 28.

OSLO, Norway, Aug. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Photocure ASA (OSE:PHO) today reported Hexvix®/Cysview® revenues of NOK 99.9 million in the second quarter of 2022 (Q1 2021: NOK 88.9 million), and a positive EBITDA of NOK 1.4 million (NOK 5.8 million). Karl Storz's new high-definition blue light system is expected to become commercially available in the United States in late third quarter 2022, which is in turn expected to accelerate the placement of rigid towers. "We delivered 12% Hexvix/Cysview revenue growth and 9% unit growth in the second quarter of 2022, despite delays in the new Karl Storz blue light system launch and ongoing effects from Covid-19. The commitment of our commercial teams in both the U.S. and in Europe enabled the business to significantly recover from a difficult first quarter and achieve positive year over year growth with our base business, despite the staffing shortages that continue to plague healthcare systems around the world. While access to care has reopened, many hospital systems now have stricter rules for non-essential personnel within the facility, and limited staffing means less time for face-to-face customer engagement. Nevertheless, in the second quarter of 2022, our U.S. business achieved the highest unit sales volume in our history, and we continue to increase Cysview's penetration into the bladder cancer treatment market," says Dan Schneider, President & Chief Executive Officer of Photocure. Photocure reported total group revenues of NOK 100.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 (NOK 90.4 million), and an EBITDA* of NOK 1.4 million (NOK 5.8 million). The Hexvix/Cysview revenues ended at NOK 99.9 million in the quarter (Q2 2021: NOK 88.9 million), on higher unit sales in both North American and Europe and a favorable net benefit from foreign exchange. The EBIT was NOK -4.6 million (NOK -0.2 million) and the cash balance at the end of the second quarter 2022 was NOK 273.1 million. The installed base of blue light cystoscopes in the U.S. was 329 at the end of the second quarter, an increase of 41 towers or 14% since the same period in 2021, including a total base of 58 flexible cystoscopes, which grew 38% year over year. "I am pleased to reiterate that demand for blue light cystoscopy (BLC®) continues to be very strong, and that new high-definition blue light equipment from Karl Storz is anticipated by our accounts in both the U.S. and European markets. Major capital equipment suppliers are highly aware of the need, and are preparing to launch new upgraded blue light systems in Europe. These technology upgrades are expected to improve the BLC experience for physicians, and we believe that the use of high-definition towers will further accelerate demand for Hexvix/Cysview. Our U.S. pipeline for new BLC towers remains robust, and we continue to work with Karl Storz in preparation of the launch of the new blue light system later this quarter," Schneider adds. With the new Karl Storz system anticipated to launch in the U.S. in late third quarter of 2022, Photocure expects that the placements of new blue light rigid towers will accelerate in the fourth quarter of this year. Meanwhile, the company will continue to focus on increasing the use of Cysview in existing accounts as well as placing flexible BLC equipment, for which installation momentum has increased. "We believe that the second half of this year has potential for some exciting developments. With healthcare access now reopened and the new high-definition blue light system expected to launch in the coming weeks, we are looking forward to significantly expanding the base of blue light capital equipment and accelerating the growth of our Hexvix/Cysview franchise," Schneider concludes. Please find the full financial report and presentation enclosed. EBITDA* and other alternative performance measures (APMs) are defined and reconciled to the IFRS financial statements as a part of the APM section of the second quarter 2022 financial report on page 22. Photocure will present its second quarter 2022 report on Wednesday 10 August 2022 at 14:00 CEST at Hotel Continental, Oslo, Norway. The investor presentation will also be streamed live and be hosted by Dan Schneider, CEO and Erik Dahl, CFO.

Bye-Bye, Beto: Watch as O'Rourke Gets 'Run Out' of Red City with Police Escorts as Protesters Yell, Wave Abbott Signs Texas Democrats, yet again, are trying to make Beto O’Rourke happen. Yet again, he’s not happening. This time, O’Rourke is running for governor of the Lone Star State against incumbent Republican Gov. Greg Abbott. As in his 2018 Senate campaign against Sen. Ted Cruz, Beto has been billed as the Great Blue Hope that will start turning Texas Democrat. “Texas Gov. Abbott’s lead over Democratic challenger O’Rourke is narrowing,” NPR reported on Monday, arguing that “an abortion ban and the school shooting in Uvalde may have shifted the odds in the governor’s race.” Just as in 2018 with Cruz, O’Rourke may be narrowing the polls, but that’s only because he’s coming from a long way down and they aren’t narrowing by much. According to RealClearPolitics’ aggregate data, Abbott still held a 6 percentage point lead as of Tuesday morning — and the numbers have been consistent since surveying began last summer. Just because the last poll that had Abbott up by double-digit numbers was a University of Texas survey in April doesn’t exactly mean O’Rourke charging hard toward the governor’s mansion, particularly in a Republican-friendly year. It also doesn’t mean Texas is turning blue, or even purple. O’Rourke found this out the hard way during a Friday visit to Rockdale, a town 40 miles west of College Station. The city was part of his “Drive for Texas” tour — where, according to Waco’s KWKT-TV, “he will spend 49 days on the road and visit every part of Texas this summer.” “O’Rourke has spent a lot of time in very red areas on this 49-day road trip like Milam county, despite not being very popular in these areas,” KWKT said of the Saturday event. Yeah, you’re telling me. This is what Beto and his campaign wanted you to see from the Rockdale event: Met dozens of first-time voters at yesterday’s three town halls in Bastrop, Brenham, and Rockdale! Great to see so many people getting registered and involved. pic.twitter.com/2vq1ZHzGdz — Beto O’Rourke (@BetoORourke) August 6, 2022 Rockdale on a Friday night! One of the best town halls we’ve had. This is why we show up for everyone, everywhere. pic.twitter.com/YkG2Gzmsg4 — Beto O’Rourke (@BetoORourke) August 6, 2022 However, the visit turned into one of those “How it started/How it’s going” memes once Beto moved outside the campaign-controlled confines of Rockdale’s Kay Theatre. Human Events senior editor Jack Posobiec tweeted a video of the scene: WARNING: The following video contains graphic language that some viewers will find offensive. BREAKING: Beto just got run out of Rockdale, Texaspic.twitter.com/JHSV1FwIsV — Jack Posobiec 🍊 (@JackPosobiec) August 8, 2022 The video Beto leaving the hall with police officers acting as escorts, while a group of Abbott supporters with placards followhim to his pickup truck (an electric or a hybrid, I’m sure). They’re essentially running him out of town to the tune of Kid Rock’s “We the People.” “We the people in all we do / Reserve the right to scream ‘f*** you / ‘Wear your mask, take your pills’ / Now a whole generation’s mentally ill,” the lyrics to Mr. Rock’s anti-Biden anthem read. The chorus? “We the people (ooh, let’s go Brandon).” Posobiec wasn’t the only one to notice the dissonance between this scene and the whole “boy, that Beto’s really making a race of this one” narrative being peddled. Beto O’Rourke got run out of Rockdale, Texas. Does actually think they’ll elect him Governor? 😂 — Benny Johnson 🍊 (@bennyjohnson) August 8, 2022 Protesters greeting Beto in Rockdale, Texas. This dude will be unemployed in late November. pic.twitter.com/JKcyGo8Gjs — The W&J Show w/ Kenny Webster (@WaltonNJohnson) August 8, 2022 In other news, someone at “The W&J Show with Kenny Webster” struggles under the misapprehension that Beto is somehow employed. “Serial failed candidate” is not a real job and the last time O’Rourke held elected office was early January 2019, when his time in the House of Representatives came to a close. Keep in mind, too, that these were people who merely came to see him off with a big fat raspberry. They weren’t there to hear his speech, in the kind of carefully organized, much-publicized campaign event that makes up a political appearance. No matter how many supporters Beto could pack inside the Kay Theatre, what’s more striking is the number of opponents who showed up outside of it merely to let it be known how emphatically they dislike him. Considering Rockdale’s total population is just over 5,000, that’s no small turnout to turn Beto out. The footage — along with the anti-Beto protesters’ choice of Kid Rock’s “let’s go Brandon“-echoing anthem — demonstrated why, yet again, Beto is piloting a doomed ship of Democrat donor money to the bottom of the political ocean. Take KXXV-TV’s coverage of the event, which made sure to note that “[t]he race for Governor has become close after Abbott’s response to the Uvalde shooting.” “Beto O’Rourke is known for his pro-choice stance and for demanding change in Texas gun laws,” the article noted, before pointing out that the polling “gap is smaller than when Republican George W. Bush ousted Democrat Ann Richards in 1994.” Notice the year — 1994, a wave election in which Republicans took control of both houses of Congress in response to the President Bill Clinton’s rocky first years, a situation that sounds oddly familiar. Notice, too, the reason KXXV — and so many others — credit for Beto’s rise in the poll: His “demanding change in Texas gun laws.” Or, as O’Rourke said on stage during a 2019 Democrat presidential debate, “Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47.” In 1994, George W. Bush won during a wave election for the Republicans. In 2018, during a wave election for the Democrats, despite a massive influx of cash and the mainstream media casting Ted Cruz as the most unlikable politician since Caligula, O’Rourke still lost, 51 percent to 48 percent. Back then, he also wasn’t telling people he was going to take their rifles, either. That tends to get gun owners out to the polls — not a small cohort in Texas, and not known for being particularly liberal. But for some reason, in the mainstream media and on the left, hope always springs eternal when it comes to progressive candidates in Texas’ statewide elections — particularly when it’s Beto, it seems. More than any other state, Texas is known for its love of the gridiron. Perhaps, then, it would profit some pragmatic soul with the national Democratic Party to make a visit to state headquarters with a blown-up “Peanuts” comic to talk some sense into everyone. They should point to Charlie Brown: “This is you guys.” They should then point to Lucy Van Pelt: “This is Beto O’Rourke.” Finally, they should point to the football Lucy is holding: “This is every statewide election.” Then repeat it. Maybe the party will get the point then. Or maybe it will keep trying to make the kick happen. Whatever the case, Beto’s reception outside the Rockdale event ought to have demonstrated why, yet again, it’s not happening.

Hillary Clinton Gets Major Backlash for Attempting to Cash in on FBI's Mar-a-Lago Raid Less than 24 hours after the FBI raided former President Donald Trump’s Florida estate, Hillary Clinton gave an inappropriate announcement on social media Tuesday morning. The former secretary of state and first lady, on behalf of her nonprofit Onward Together, set up a progressive fundraiser, on which she sold clothing printed with a message mocking conservatives. The fundraiser’s pre-order items included hats and shirts which read “But her emails,” referencing how Republicans called for her arrest after her email controversy. Every “But her emails” hat or shirt sold helps @onwardtogether partners defend democracy, build a progressive bench, and fight for our values. Just saying!https://t.co/4TiUxjmRNY pic.twitter.com/rflM8fTAbw — Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) August 9, 2022 Clinton tweeted that the first batch of hats sold out quickly, followed by a restocking update. On Monday, FBI agents searched Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort for documents as part of a federal investigation into the former president, CNN reported. Trump first revealed the news while he was away at Trump Tower in New York City. In an official statement, Trump likened the Mar-a-Lago siege to Watergate, calling it “prosecutorial misconduct” and “political persecution.” He further pointed out the injustice by contrasting Clinton’s email scandal with his own situation. “Absolutely nothing has happened to hold her accountable,” Trump said. In 2014, the FBI launched a probe into Clinton based on the State Department’s concerns she used a private email server for official government communications while she was secretary of state. According to ABC News, she reportedly deleted 33,000 emails during the investigation. The FBI did not recommend any charges against her. Since then, Republicans have criticized Clinton for intentionally keeping classified information on her personal server and suggested she be thrown in jail. In response, Clinton supporters co-opted the line “but her emails” to mock Trump supporters. And here … Clinton is using this phrase herself to capitalize off of Trump’s unfortunate circumstance. Many liberals and Democrats commended the move on Twitter, but conservative and Republican users were not too pleased with her boasting. You’re the one who the FBI should’ve raided. — Lavern Spicer 🇺🇸 (@lavern_spicer) August 9, 2022 “You might want to sit this one out, just on general principle,” one Twitter user wrote. 1) You might want to sit this one out, just on general principle 2) Fund-raising off of this is sleazy— Patrick Matthews (@matthews_p) August 9, 2022 Radio show host Wayne Dupree wrote, “This is where we are today.

Royal Mail warns of FY loss if four days of strikes go ahead Aug 10 (Reuters) - Royal Mail warned on Wednesday that it could post a loss in the UK for the full-year 2022-23, if four days of strike called by the Communications Workers Union (CWU) in August and September went ahead. The CWU, which represents more than a 100,000 Royal Mail postal workers, said British postal workers will hold the strike in protest over pay on Aug. 26 and 31 as well as Sept. 8 and 9. Tuesday's strike announcement is the latest industrial action in the country as workers demand wage rises to cope with soaring inflation at a time when Britain faces its worst cost-of-living crisis in decades. The centuries-old Royal Mail, which saw a parcel boom during the pandemic, now also faces challenges to its business due to a slowdown in the UK economy, ebbing consumer demand, and sky-high inflation. The company said it has contingency plans in place and will be working hard to minimise disruption and restore normal service as soon as possible.

Molly Rainford has been confirmed as the tenth star joining Strictly Come Dancing 2022. The BBC One show is back again for a brand new series, with another set of famous faces trading their usual day jobs to take to the dance floor. So far, the likes of Loose Women star Kaye Adams, Coronation Street actress Kym Marsh and Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps' comedian Will Mellor have all signed up for the 2022 series. Molly was a singer on the sixth series of Britain's Got Talent. In her audition, she performed a stunning rendition of 'One Night Only' by Jennifer Hudson, with her voice at just 11-years-old leaving fans - and the judges - stunned. She has also since had her own CBBC show, Nova Jones, where she plays an eighteen-year-old pop star who performs in space. Ahead of Molly's announcement, Ted Lasso star Ellie Taylor was the latest to sign up to the show, with the announcement being made during ITV's Lorraine yesterday. Ranvir Singh - who's been on the show herself - was on hand to quiz Ellie about her stint. "I want someone who's patient. I need a tall, patient person," she said of her ideal Strictly partner, "The dancing bit is what is completely out of my comfort zone. I've watched the show for years so to be able to take to the dance floor is a dream come true, for both me and mum who is a Strictly super fan. At the moment I'm focusing on the excitement and glitter and choosing to ignore the fact that I have the dancing ability of a newly born giraffe. Bring it on!" Elsewhere, Bros legend Matt Goss has signed up for the upcoming series and during a chat on This Morning, he confessed he was really "excited" to head back to the show after taking part in the Christmas special. He said: "I’m excited, I’m nervous. You have the conversation and then you go about your day and you think, ‘I’ve got to dance.’ I’m eating everything that’s favourable to Spandex. I’ve got to make sure it’s alright, I’m excited." "I’ve been almost reclusive. I come in [to the country], I work and go back to America. I just thought, ‘You know what, it’s time for me to come home, just do something completely out of my comfort zone.' I’m quite shy off stage. I just have to face all those demons and just learn," he added of his return to the UK. Coronation Street actress Kym Marsh admitted she had been asked to go on the show for some time, but finally felt it was right for her to do and was "delighted" to be joining the BBC show later this year.

Kaasa, Woitas win primary for District 2 commissioner Published 12:33 am Wednesday, August 10, 2022 In a closely contested primary to determine who advances to the general election for Freeborn County commissioner District 2, Dawn Kaasa narrowly beat out Scott Woitas, 360 to 359, to secure the top spot heading into November’s election. Both Kaasa and Woitas will advance to the general election. “I would [like to] thank the voters who came out and voted today and all those who voted for me,” Kaasa said in a phone interview. “I very much appreciate all their support, and I’m going to work hard to follow through to November.” She also expressed gratitude after learning she advanced. “I am very, very grateful to everyone who came out and voted, supported me, and all the help I’ve had through my campaign, my friends and family that have been there, and all the voters,” she said. Kaasa, running on a campaign she described as “honest and open,” still plans to be out on the campaign trail and visit people. Woitas, who was unable to be reached for comment, will also advance. He received 27.34% of the votes, compared to Kaasa’s 27.42%. Steve Kluver came in third place with 330 votes, or 25.13%, while Henry Tews finished with 264, or 20.11%. “We went out there and we did our best job and there [were] four good candidates,” Tews said. He also congratulated both Kaasa and Woitas. Kluver declined to comment.

Dave is delightd to announce they were run wn winners! Great stuff CAPS....!!! We now join 'Grace and Frank in The Rivers' runaway train through Loch Mafh RIO DE JANEIRO — After declaring the decision final, a state court backpedaled Monday and reopened a lawsuit that invalidates a protected area in Brazil's Amazon. The judicial reversal is a setback for a cattle rancher dubbed the rainforest's worst perpetrator. The Mato Grosso state prosecutors' office announced it was the reopening, saying the state's upper court failed to notify the office of its decision, as it is required in lawsuits that involve the public interest. The state's upper court confirmed the reversal to The Associated Press. The Cristalino II State Park stretches for 292,000 acres, larger than New York City, and lies in the transition zone between the Amazon and drier Cerrado biomes. It is home to the endemic white-fronted spider monkey (Ateles marginatus), a species endangered due to habitat loss. In a 3-2 decision, Mato Grosso´s upper court had ruled that the government's creation of the park in 2001 was illegal because it took place without public consultation. The plaintiff is a company linked to Antonio José Rossi Junqueira Vilela, who has been fined millions of dollars for deforestation in Brazil and stealing thousands of acres of the Amazon rainforest, including inside Cristalino II. In 2016, the Vilela family made headlines in Brazil for being at the center of a landmark enforcement operation against deforestation in the Amazon. Brazil's attorney general called him the single largest clearer of land in the Amazon. The state government did not appeal, citing technical reasons, which led the court to declare the decision final in April. Mato Grosso, Brazil's largest soybean-producing state, is run by governor Mauro Mendes, a pro-agribusiness politician and ally of far-right President Jair Bolsonaro, who has repeatedly said Brazil has too many protected areas and vowed not to create more of them. The legal events happened in recent months, but it was only last week that the local press broke news of the park's dissolution, sparking the mobilization of Brazil's environmentalist organizations. Now with the lawsuit reopened, the state prosecutor's office plans to appeal to higher, national-level courts, In the meantime, the state government cannot reverse the park's creation as it had announced it would do last week. "The park continues," said Edilene Amaral, a legal consultant with Mato Grosso Socio-environmental Observatory, a non-profit network, in a statement. "Any activity incompatible with full protection remains prohibited and subject to penalties." Copyright 2022 NPR. To see more, visit https://www.npr.org.

Breaking: Judge Behind Mar-a-Lago Raid Exposed - Shocking Epstein Past Revealed In the daylight hours following the FBI raid on former President Donald Trump’s Florida home — Mar-a-Lago — reports revealed the judge who signed the sealed search warrant resigned as a federal prosecutor in 2007 before being hired to represent the accused co-conspirators of billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Bruce Reinhart, now a federal magistrate, departed the U.S. Attorney’s office while they were negotiating the controversial plea bargain with Epstein. He later appeared to switch sides, representing Epstein’s co-conspirators as reported by The Miami Herald including “Epstein’s pilots; his scheduler, Sarah Kellen; and Nadia Marcinkova, described by some victims as Epstein’s sex slave.” Judge Bruce Reinhart Who OK-ed Trump’s Raid Represented Jeffrey Epstein’s Staff https://t.co/lq4UIX1v1r — Ben Owen 🇺🇸🦅 (@hrkbenowen) August 9, 2022 The Herald wrote on Monday that a “source said FBI agents obtained a search warrant from a federal magistrate judge in West Palm Beach.” And Politico reported that the West Palm Beach U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida has three magistrate judges: Judge Bruce Reinhart, Judge William Matthewman and Judge Ryon McCabe. Politico continued to explain that two sealed warrants were reportedly signed on Monday, and both were assigned to Reinhart, as shown in the court’s online portal. The warrant believed to be related to the Mar-a-Lago has continued to be updated throughout Tuesday. The defection of Reinhart from the U.S. Attorney’s Office made news in 2019 following the arrest of Epstein as the connections between the U.S. Attorney’s Office and Epstein’s defense team drew intense criticism toward the plea deal and the attorneys involved. In 2019, Julie K. Brown, writing for The Herald, found that when Reinhart opened his legal practice, Florida records showed its business address as 250 South Australian Ave., Suite 1400. This would turn out to be the very same location, and even the same suite number, as Epstein’s lead attorney, Jack Goldberger. Subsequently, Reinhart’s clients — Epstein’s pilots, Sarah Kellen and Nadia Marcinkova — were shielded from prosecution alongside the billionaire as a part of the 2008 plea agreement. Miami Herald reporters also implicated Reinhart in 2019 with a seeming conflict of interest, in addition to former top Epstein prosecutor and Trump Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta who resigned after the story was released. The Herald revealed that Reinhart, in a 2011 sworn affidavit for a related civil case denied he did anything improper or unethical. He claimed under threat of perjury that he was not a part of the team who worked on the Epstein investigation and was therefore not privy to any confidential information about the case. Reinhart’s claim was contradicted two years later when his former supervisors at the U.S. Attorney’s Office filed court documents stating “while Bruce E. Reinhart was an assistant U.S. attorney, he learned confidential, non-public information about the Epstein matter.” Reinhart later denied any conflict of interest in an email to Herald reporters writing, “Even assuming I had participated ‘personally and substantially’ in the Epstein investigation [which I did not], the relevant Department of Justice regulations only prohibited me from communicating with, or appearing before, the United States on behalf of Mr. Epstein,’’ REPORT: Judge Behind Mar A Lago Raid Is Epstein-Linked, Obama Donor.https://t.co/UjBakshTtS — Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) August 9, 2022 Fox News reported that Reinhart spent 10 years in private legal practice prior to becoming a magistrate judge in 2018. Federal Election Commission records show that Reinhart donated twice to former President Barack Obama’s campaign in 2008 totaling $2,000 and also donated to Trump’s primary opponent Jeb Bush in 2015.

Goals from Charley Kendall, Teddy Bishop and Anthony Scully did the trick as the Imps deservedly triumphed at the Keepmoat Stadium. Rovers started brightly enough and Harrison Biggins dragged a shot wide in the opening minute of the game. But the visitors took the lead after only 12 minutes when Bishop squared the ball to striker Kendall to smash home close-range. Most Popular Defender James Maxwell fizzed a cross across the face of goal but Lee Tomlin failed to provide the killer touch for an equaliser. Bishop rifled wide as the Imps came close to scoring a second, while midfielder Adam Clayton blazed over for Rovers. But it was the visitors who doubled their lead when Bishop went on a storming run from the halfway line, before curling a sweet strike into the far corner. Tomlin struck a shot straight at keeper Carl Rushworth and then Tashan Oakley-Booth blazed over from the edge of the box. Jonathan Mitchell produced a fine save to thwart Chris Maguire, but Scully followed up to slot into an empty net. Jack Goodman wasted a good chance to pull a goal back, but Rushworth saved. Doncaster: Mitchell, Knoyle, Olowu (Williams 33), Long, Maxwell, Ravenhill (Hurst 45), Clayton, Biggins, Andrews (Seaman 66), Tomlin (Kuleya 66), Agard (Goodman 84).

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — Australia’s recent change of government was a chance to “reset” its troubled relationship with China, but the new administration must “handle the Taiwan question with caution,” a Chinese envoy said on Wednesday. Chinese Ambassador to Australia Xiao Qian said he was “surprised” that Australia had signed a statement with the United States and Japan that condemned China’s firing of missiles into Japanese waters in response to U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan last week. “We hope that the Australian side could take China-Australia relations with serious attitude. Take the ‘One China’ principle seriously, handle the Taiwan question with caution,” Xiao told the National Press Club. Xiao would not say when the live-fire military exercises near Taiwan might end. He said an announcement would be made at a “proper time.” China wanted a peaceful reunification with Taiwan, which Beijing considers a self-governing province, but Xiao did not rule out use of force. “We can never rule out the option to use other means. So when necessary, when compelled, we are ready to use all necessary means,” Xiao said. “As to what does it mean by ‘all necessary means?’ You can use your imagination.” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin this week said Australia had “wantonly criticized China’s legitimate, justified and lawful measures to safeguard its sovereignty and territorial integrity.” Wang urged Australia to “stop interfering in China’s internal affairs.” “In the past few years, China-Australia relations have experienced serious difficulties for reasons caused by the Australian side,” Wang said. Beijing has eased a ban on minister-to-minister contacts with Australia since Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s government was elected in May. The two countries’ defense and foreign ministers have since had face-to-face meetings. Chinese Premier Li Keqiang wrote to congratulate Albanese on his election and Albanese had replied. China would discuss with Australia whether conditions were right for a meeting between Albanese and Chinese President Xi Jinping in November when the leaders are in Indonesia for a Group of 20 summit. “As ambassador, I’m hoping for the best and I’m going to try to make all my efforts toward that direction,” Xiao said. Xiao said the new Australian government had made a good start to its relationship with China after a “difficult time for a couple of years.” “But it’s a good start only. There’s a lot to be done to really reset this relationship,” Xiao said. Albanese has urged China to demonstrate good faith toward the new government by lifting a series of official and unofficial trade barriers that is costing Australian exporters tens of billions of dollars. Xiao defended the barriers and pointed to the economic damage Australia had caused Chinese-owned telecommunications giant Huawei by banning it from rolling out the country’s 5G network due to security concerns. Acting Prime Minister Richard Marles, who is filling in while Albanese is on vacation this week, was undeterred by the hostile Chinese reaction to Australia’s criticisms of the military response to Pelosi’s visit. “China is going to say what China says. We control our end of this equation. And in describing that end, it’s this: We will engage with the world with respect, with professionalism, with sobriety, with a faith in diplomacy,” Marles said Wednesday. “And we will continue to do that. While the government has changed, our national interest hasn’t. We will also speak to our national interest and we will speak to it with vigor,” Marles added.

Report: FBI Waited for a Very Specific Moment to Conduct Mar-a-Lago Search The Federal Bureau of Investigation deliberately chose the time it raided former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, on Monday, sources familiar told TMZ. Generally, whenever the FBI would carry out such a search, agents would handcuff the subject of the search warrant if they were at the site of the raid, regardless of whether there was an altercation between them or not, the sources told TMZ. Once agents make sure that the property being stormed was safe, they would remove handcuffs from the raid’s target, although the FBI would prevent him or her from entering the areas being searched, according to TMZ. However, when carrying out the Monday raid, the FBI reportedly considered the political risk of handcuffing Trump and avoided raiding the home until the former President was at Trump Tower in New York City. The FBI’s alleged calculations did not prevent the raid on Trump’s residence from being “awkward” politically as they intended to, according to TMZ. “My beautiful home Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided and occupied by a large group of FBI agents,” Trump said in a statement on the raid. “After working and cooperating with the relevant government agencies, this unannounced raid at my home was not necessary or appropriate,” Trump said. “They even broke into my safe! What is the difference between this and Watergate, where operatives broke into the Democrat National Committee? Here, in reverse, Democrats broke into the home of the 45th President of the United States,” Trump said. Within moments of Trump’s statement, a massive group of Trump supporters arrived at Mar-a-Lago waving the American flag and Trump insignia. Police stationed near Mar-a-Lago observed the large demonstration as supporters of the former President poured in on trucks, some having Trump-Pence signs with former Vice President Mike Pence’s name crossed out, according to the Daily Mail. Deputies with the local sheriff’s department joined FBI agents in keeping the peace surrounding the raided property. Demonstrators held signs such as “Make Votes Count Again,” “Keep America Great” and “In Trump I Trust.” Republican officials condemned the raids, with some pledging retaliation against Democratic leaders and members of the Biden administration’s Department of Justice once Republicans return to power. “I’ve seen enough. The Department of Justice has reached an intolerable state of weaponized politicization,” Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said in a statement shared on Twitter. “When Republicans take back the House we will conduct immediate oversight of this department, follow the facts and leave no stone unturned.” “Attorney General [Merrick] Garland: preserve your documents and clear your calendar,” McCarthy warned. Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis called the raid “another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime’s political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves.” “Now the Regime is getting another 87k IRS agents to wield against its adversaries? Banana Republic,” DeSantis wrote on Twitter. Some Democratic and former Democratic leaders joined in criticizing the raid as well. “DOJ must immediately explain the reason for its raid & it must be more than a search for inconsequential archives or it will be viewed as a political tactic and undermine any future credible investigation & legitimacy of January 6 investigations,” Democratic former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo tweeted. “I’m no Trump fan. I want him as far away from the White House as possible. But a fundamental part of his appeal has been that it’s him against a corrupt government establishment. This raid strengthens that case for millions of Americans who will see this as unjust persecution,” former Democratic presidential candidate and Forward Party founder Andrew Yang wrote.

Joseph: An Enduring Truth About Children Is Being Swept Away We need a Respect for Children Act. We do not need a fake Respect for Marriage Act. This disgraceful act schemes to replace our Constitution’s “ordered liberty” with disordered license. It ignores and disrespects the natural law rights of children to know and be raised, as far as possible, by their own mothers and fathers. We need to return to respecting marriage first and foremost as a time-honored legal institution for protecting children through limiting marriage to the union of one man and one woman. This respect is consistent with our Constitution, for it is “deeply rooted in the Nation’s history and tradition” and is an “essential component” of ordered liberty (Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, 2022). The Constitution is not a selfish document. It is based on the longstanding recognition of the common law obligation that calls for ordered liberty, which sets limits and defines the boundary between competing interests. Deconstructing marriage: the de-mothering and de-fathering of children Way back in 1890, Supreme Court Justice Stephen Field explained, “The possession and enjoyment of all rights are subject to such reasonable conditions as may be deemed by the governing authority of the country essential to the safety, health, peace, good order and morals of the community. Even liberty itself, the greatest of all rights, is not unrestricted license to act according to one’s own will.” The move to destabilize marriage by extending it to same-sex partners threatens to undermine the natural integrity of our families and the natural responsibilities we all owe to our children. The new act is dedicated to legitimizing and legalizing a new kind of marriage that endorses ultimately the de-mothering or de-fathering of many children. Tragically, too many of our youngest human beings are being deliberately separated from their natural family, from their own mothers and fathers. The fact that a same-sex couple may love and want children does not erase the inhumanity of depriving a child of either a father or a mother and often, in the case of surrogacy or sperm donor arrangements, deliberately separating them from a natural parent without due cause. Marriage — an egotism à deux? The Senate must not be taken in by this rogue movement set on changing the very meaning of marriage. The so-called Respect for Marriage Act, so hastily passed by the House of Representatives, trashes one of the original purposes and responsibilities of marriage. Seven years ago, the Supreme Court in Obergefell v. Hodges eroded marriage to expand to the state an improper interest in supporting any intimate relationship between any two persons as the primary purpose of marriage. Seven years of same-sex “marriage” propaganda has worked a treat in getting so many of our politicians to get used to the new arrangements. Just so throughout history have morally slack politicians caved into new evils as careless acceptance proliferated. This act has been rushed through the House as a block to the possible overturning of Obergefell by the Supreme Court that overturned Roe v. Wade. Unfortunately, the act’s euphemisms have cunningly fooled a majority in the House. Their embrace of new ideological marriage dogma intent on rearranging the human race is rationalized. The act confuses “securing the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our posterity” (one of the stated purposes of the Constitution) with an all-purpose, wide-ranging, atomistic “liberty” lacking sensible qualifications concerning our duties to protect our children’s natural family heritage. If passed in the Senate, the act will require every state to promote marriage as an egotism à deux relegating the best interests of children to an optional attachment. Uncritical embrace of new ideology Endorsement of such an exclusive, immoderate and selfish liberty, however, is not found anywhere in the Constitution. Such radical novelty is not “consonant with the common sense of mankind and the maxims of eternal justice,” a principle affirmed by Justice Joseph Story (Terrett v. Taylor, 1815). The impulse to revolutionize the natural institution of marriage is mere ideological nonsense; it fails both the common sense test and the eternal justice maxims at the heart of the Constitution. The legal endorsement of same-sex “marriage” is an ill-considered aberration that has emerged from the excesses of the recent sexual revolution. It exhibits the hallmarks of all extreme ideologies — a noisy excitability that flouts rationality and an arrogance that overrides the common sense of mankind. The enduring truth that children need both a mother and a father has been swept away. The spurious dogma that two mothers or two fathers are just as good or even better for children has swept the world with its novelty and has been peddled with an excessive, quasi-religious zeal. As with previous extreme ideologies, there is no shortage of academics willing to compromise their intellectual integrity for the cause. They produce pseudo-scientific research papers that endorse favored new dogma, relying on anecdotes and rhetoric rather than random sample selection and credible long-term statistical rigor and analysis. Constitutional protections for our posterity The state’s proper interest in marriage has always been to ensure a stable, ordered society looking out for the well-being of innately vulnerable children. Sadly, this legitimate interest is being diverted away from children. The states (and the courts) are increasingly being importuned by irresponsible adults who are primarily focused on themselves and have grown careless of our posterity and the general welfare recognized and protected by the Constitution. The drastic disrespect concealed in the Respect for Marriage Act consists in revoking the age-old principle of putting the best interests of children first. Our constitutional commitments to our posterity and the general welfare are being undermined as the adult individual’s liberty is grossly inflated and endorsed by flawed Supreme Court decisions like Obergefell. To our shame, public and private duties towards our posterity have been permitted to shrivel. We really do need a Respect for Children Act!

Actress Anne Heche's Condition Is Much Worse Than Previously Reported, Publicist Says Two days after representatives for actress Anne Heche described her condition as stable following a fiery accident on Friday, a darker picture has emerged. On Friday, Heche reportedly slammed the car she was driving into an apartment building garage, then drove off and crashed into a house, according to TMZ. The house and Heche’s car erupted in flames. That day, she was reported in critical condition, which representatives for her said had improved to stable on Saturday. “At this time Anne is in extreme critical condition,” a statement from a Heche representative said on Monday, according to Deadline. “She has a significant pulmonary injury requiring mechanical ventilation and burns that require surgical intervention,” the statement said. “She is in a coma and has not regained consciousness since shortly after the accident.” Anne Heche slipped into coma, is in critical condition after fiery Los Angeles car crash, rep says https://t.co/banBs3mJBW — Eugene Chin (@gene038) August 9, 2022 Los Angeles Police Department Officer Annie Hernandez said a warrant for a blood draw from Heche, who was seen driving erratically before the crash, was obtained Friday. “The info we received this morning was a warrant was obtained the same day as the traffic collision, which was August 5. The warrant was to draw blood, and an investigation is ongoing pending the blood test results,” Page Six reported that it was told by an LAPD representative. “If found intoxicated, [Heche] could be charged with misdemeanor DUI hit and run. No arrests have been made so far.” The outlet reported that in going from the apartment house to the house she drove into, Heche hit a vehicle. LAFD Capt. Erik Scott said Heche’s car was about 30 feet into the house when firefighters arrived, according to KABC-TV. “She was talking to us at the time that we were able to pull her out, so that’s a good sign,” Scott said. Heche is potentially facing charges that could range from DUI, speeding or hit-and-run, according to KTLA. Anne Heche didn’t have an “accident”. She had an “on purpose”. She was drunk driving. And she crashed not only once, but twice, before being stopped because her car was actually inside someone’s house. I have zero tolerance or compassion for people who drive drunk. — Laura Kronen 🇺🇸 (@LauraKronen) August 6, 2022 Jennifer Durand, who owns the house into which Heche crashed, said she learned of the accident from Lynne Mishele, the house’s current tenant, according to People “Lynne called me and asked me if I was sitting down, and then told me a car had crashed through the home and it was on fire,” she said. “She could barely speak, so it took a few minutes to really understand what was happening.” “When I arrived, we hugged and cried a lot. In that moment, I was just so relieved and grateful that she and her animals had survived this,” Durand said. “Nothing could have prepared me for what the house looked like.” “The firefighters helped us sift through it — I can’t accurately describe how that feels. Every firefighter and officer that I spoke with were incredibly kind and helped in every way they could. They spent so much time with us, explaining everything and helping search for things. I am especially grateful for their response.” Truth and Accuracy We are committed to truth and accuracy in all of our journalism. Read our editorial standards.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) — A logistics provider plans to invest $25 million for a new operation in Bowling Green that will create 110 jobs, Gov. Andy Beshear said. Bluegrass Supply Chain Services LLC is expanding its logistics capabilities to serve the automotive and food and beverage markets, according to a statement Tuesday from Beshear's office. “This investment highlights the continued growth of existing businesses in our state, which play an integral role in building a brighter future for Kentuckians," Beshear said. Company leaders will co-develop and lease a facility in Bowling Green in partnership with Sunnyside Gott REIG for office and warehousing space. It will be the company’s second location in the community. Work on the project is expected to begin in October and be completed by January 2024. “We are excited to develop a new corporate office, warehouse space and a truck facility to support our operations in Bowling Green and Warren County,” Bluegrass Supply Chain CEO John Higgins said.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Dianña's song "Hands" made a major move this week on the Billboard Adult Contemporary Chart jumping 45 spots to #28. She joined Pink, The Weekend, and GooGoo Dolls, as one of only four acts debuting in the Top 30. Dianña is now the #1 ranked artist on the Mediabase Adult Contemporary Independent chart. Hands is somewhat of a throwback story-telling song, but with a twist. Said Dianña, "When I look at someone's hands I can often see the life they have lived like a storybook written in their hands." Dianña also hit the charts earlier in 2022 with a novelty song, "Calm Down Karen," which was played more than 50 million times on TikTok and led to a remix that peaked at #48 on the BDS/Billboard Top 40 Pop Indicator chart. Dianña (dee-ON-ya) found her true calling as a country singer/songwriter after having written, recorded, and performed with many well-known R&B, rap, rock, pop, gospel, alternative, and country artists from Snoop Dogg to Amy Grant.

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate LONDON (AP) — As Britain swelters through a roasting summer, and braces for a cold financial reckoning in the fall, calls for the Conservative government to act are getting louder. But the Conservatives are busy choosing a new leader, through a prolonged party election whose priorities often seem remote from the country’s growing turmoil. Britons’ energy bills have soared — and further hikes are coming — as the war in Ukraine squeezes global oil and gas supplies. The Bank of England is predicting a long, deep recession later this year alongside 13% inflation. Meanwhile, temperatures in Britain hit 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) in July for the first time ever, and millions are facing limits on water use as England’s green and pleasant land dries to a desiccated brown. There is little sense of crisis among Conservatives as Foreign Secretary Liz Truss and former Treasury chief Rishi Sunak crisscross the country wooing the 180,000 party members who will choose a successor to departing Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Under Britain’s parliamentary system, the winner of the Tory leadership race — to be announced Sept. 5 — will also become prime minister, without the need for a national election. Conservative members are largely middle-aged or older, mostly middle-class or affluent, and their views don’t always reflect those of the country as a whole. “I’d like to see some true Conservative policies,” said Helen Galley, a lawyer and local Conservative official attending a candidates’ meeting in the English seaside town of Eastbourne. “Low taxation, smaller state, less regulation, freeing industry and commerce from EU regulations. … Some self-reliance and sense of responsibility for yourself.” Those priorities are mirrored in the campaign pitches of Truss and Sunak, who say they will tackle the cost-of-living crisis through long-term measures to boost the economy. Truss says she would cut individual and corporate taxes rather than give people “handouts.” Sunak says he’ll tackle inflation before lowering taxes, and will offer unspecified help to people struggling to pay their bills. Critics say neither candidate is grasping the scale of the crisis. Millions of households face a financial squeeze in October, when a cap on household energy bills tied to wholesale prices is next raised. Consulting firm Cornwall Insight forecasts the average household will then be paying over 3,500 pounds ($4,200) a year for gas and electricity, more than double the amount a year earlier — with a further hike due in the new year. Martin Lewis, a consumer champion who runs the popular Money Saving Expert website, has warned that “we are facing a potential national financial cataclysm,” with millions unable to heat their homes this winter. Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who led the U.K. during the global financial crisis of 2008, called for Johnson, Truss and Sunak to get together and draw up an emergency budget in preparation for a “financial time bomb” in October. “It’s not just that they’re asleep at the wheel — there’s nobody at the wheel at the moment,” Brown, a member of the opposition Labour Party, told broadcaster ITV. Brown's call was echoed by Tony Danker of business group the Confederation of British Industry, who said “we simply cannot afford a summer of government inactivity while the leadership contest plays out.” But with Parliament adjourned for its summer recess and Johnson whiling away his last weeks in office, big policies are on hold. The few government announcements in recent weeks have been decidedly modest — one was a plan from a “Chewing Gum Task Force” to get sticky stains off city streets. Johnson’s spokesman, Max Blain, said the outgoing leader is barred from making “major fiscal interventions” during the transition period, and any new cost-of-living remedies must be for the next prime minister to decide. “The Conservative Party -- and therefore the government -- is having a completely different conversation to the public,” said Alan Wager, a research associate at the U.K. in a Changing Europe think-tank. “And it’s quite a serious time to be having this very big disjuncture.” Anti-poverty and environmental protesters have dogged Truss and Sunak at campaign events — a reminder of the world outside the Conservative bubble. In Eastbourne, several climate activists who had infiltrated the crowd stood to heckle Truss for failing to tackle the climate crisis. They were removed to chants of “Out, out, out” from the Conservative audience. The environment has scarcely featured in the contest. Both Truss and Sunak say they will keep the government’s target of cutting Britain’s carbon emissions to net zero by 2050, while offering policies that would make that harder. Truss supports fracking and renewed North Sea oil and gas extraction and says she will suspend green levies used to fund renewable energy projects. Sunak wants to ban new onshore wind farms, though he supports offshore wind and more nuclear power to cut Britain’s carbon footprint. Party polls suggest Truss likely has an unassailable lead in the contest. Sunak is regarded with suspicion by some Tories for quitting the scandal-plagued government last month, a move that helped bring Johnson down. The former finance minister has been painted by opponents as a high-taxing, high-spending near-socialist because of the billions he spent to prop up the economy during the coronavirus pandemic. Truss styles herself as a disruptor who will “be bold” in slashing taxes and ripping up red tape — a message many Tories are keen to hear. Party member Robbie Lammas, part of a “Liz for Leader” contingent at the Eastbourne event, said he likes Truss’s “more optimistic view” of the economy. “It’s good to be bold and good to challenge orthodoxy,” he said. Another audience member, Wilhelmina Fermore, said she was “on the fence,” but leaning toward supporting Truss because “she’s more engaging and I think that she relates to people on the street.” Yet what appeals to the Conservative Party does not necessarily appeal to the country. And Chris Curtis, head of political polling at research company Opinium, says the candidates’ economic promises will soon collide with stark reality. “Liz Truss can believe all she likes that she’s going to be able to solve this thing through tax cuts, but there’s a big chunk of the population that’s about to get hammered,” he said. “Talking about how you are going to help those people is not the kind of thing that will appeal to Conservative Party members … (but) there is going to have to be a new massive intervention to help people this autumn.”

LTC outbreaks contributing to hospital vacancy struggles On a daily basis, London-Middlesex EMS is responding to COVID-19 calls in long-term care (LTC) facilities like the one on Oakcrossing Road in London, Ont. It's putting pressure on hospitals which are struggling to get patients discharged. “This morning, we were absolutely full with no beds available,” says Alasdair Smith, acting CEO of Middlesex Health Alliance which oversees hospitals in Newbury and Strathroy, Ont. “We had patients waiting in emerge [emergency] in both of Strathroy and Four Counties to get admitted through the day.” It’s the same struggle at most hospitals in our region these days. There are a dozen LTC or retirement facilities in the area which are in COVID-19 outbreak which is directly impacting the number of alternate level of care (ALC) patients in hospital. ALC patients don’t need to be in hospital, but they also can't send them back into that setting. “We have 50-odd beds here at Strathroy, [and] 16 are occupied by people who don't need to be here,” says Smith. Smiths adds, “We can't get them out to a location. At Four Counties, we have 12 beds and eight of them are occupied by ALC patients. So it impacts our ability to see new patients or a new patient or emerge.” One of those 12 retirement or LTC facilities is London's Longworth Retirement Residence which has a facility-wide outbreak. Nicole Albers believes Longworth is doing a great job with her 90-year-old mother. “In all honesty, she's vaccinated maybe even five times — definitely four times — so I have seen it happen before and I know that they do a great job there,” says Albers. “Pretty well they're staying into their rooms, so I’m not overly concerned, to be totally truthful.” The Middlesex-London Health Unit (MLHU) is reporting more than 200 COVID-positive cases over the past four days. Trends indicate this seventh wave is on its downswing, and MLHU Medical Officer of Health Dr. Alex Summers says we are in a better place to handle outbreaks than any time during the pandemic. “The massive amount of effort to vaccinate patients and staff has been essential in the protection we do have,” says Summers. “However the number of outbreaks is a reminder that COVID is still here.” Back in Strathroy, Smith says the hospital is facing pressure on a daily basis with staffing issues, COVID-19 case counts and transfers from other hospitals. “We're very tight,” says Smith. “The COVID situation doesn't help, and the inability to discharge some of those patients doesn't help either.”

Porsche has set a new electric car lap record at the Nurburgring, beating the Tesla Model S Plaid by three seconds around the 12.92 mile circuit. A Taycan Turbo S driven by Porsche development driver Lars Kern completed a lap of the German track in 7min 33.3sec, beating tesla’s time of 7min 35.6sec, which was set last year. Porsche says the car was fitted with its new performance kit and Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC), and aside from the mandatory roll cage and racing seats was a completely standard, street-legal car. The company also said how the Taycan Turbo S used to set the record weighs the same as a series production car, and an official was on hand to verify the new EV record. The performance kit includes 21-inch RS Spyder design wheels and street-approved Pirelli P Zero Corsa high-performance tires, which are now available as an option for Taycan customers. “Their tire compound is similar to that of racing tires,” Porsche said, adding: “Another element of the performance kit is a software update to the Porsche 4D Chassis Control so that it works in harmony with the sports tires.” The Nurburgring lap record for a production EV was previously held by the Plaid version of the Tesla Model S, which is significantly more powerful than the Porsche, with its three motors outputting a combined 1,000 horsepower, compared to the Taycan’s 750hp. There are a few caveats to navigate if Taycan buyers want to access the new performance kit for their EV. Porsche explains: “The performance kit is offered through Porsche Tequipment. It is currently only available in Germany and only for the 2023 model year Taycan Turbo S sports sedan. Production of these cars started in late July 2022, while the performance kit itself is expected to be available from the end of the year. The plan is for the retrofit to be carried out after initial delivery, in the Porsche workshops in Zuffenhausen. Transport to and from the factory is included, as is the individual vehicle approval and registration of the Taycan.” You can bet your bottom dollar that Elon Musk and Tesla will be back to try and reclaim the record, likely with some software tweaks of their own. “We’re delighted that the Nürburgring record for electric cars is back in Porsche hands,” says Kevin Giek, Vice President Model Line Taycan. “This lap time not only shows how much potential lies in our new performance kit, but also confirms once again the sports car genes of the Taycan.”

SEOUL – Cleanup and recovery efforts gained pace in South Korea’s greater capital region Wednesday as skies cleared after two days of record-breaking rainfall that unleashed flash floods, damaged thousands of buildings and roads and killed at least nine people. While lifting heavy rain warnings for Seoul and the neighboring metropolitan areas, South Korea’s weather agency forecasted 10 to 30 centimeters (4 to 12 inches) of rain in the country’s southern regions through Thursday. Seven people remain missing in Seoul and nearby Gyeonggi Province following the heavy rains that swamped the region Monday and Tuesday, turning streets into car-clogged rivers, sending floods cascading into subway stations, triggering landslides that crashed into roads and buildings, and displacing more than 1,800 people from their homes. The nine people who died included four who drowned in their homes in Seoul. South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol during a disaster response meeting Wednesday apologized on behalf of the government over the deaths and disruption caused by the heavy rains. He urged the central government to provide more financial help and personnel assistance to cities and regional governments to speed up recovery efforts. He also called for significant improvements to the country’s flood management systems, including building more rain tanks and tunnels and improving flood-prediction technologies, citing the growing challenges posed by extreme weather events. “It’s certainly true that (the rainfall) was abnormal weather, but we have come to a point where we can no longer call abnormal weather abnormal,” Yoon said. “We could see new record levels (of rain) at any time. We need to build our response so that we are ready for a situation that’s worse than we had imagined.” The Ministry of the Interior and Safety said workers through Wednesday afternoon had finished restoring more than 90% of some 2,800 buildings, homes, roads and other facilities in the capital area that had been prioritized in emergency recovery plans. Nearly 3,000 government workers, including police and fire department personnel, and dozens of excavators and dump trucks have been deployed in the recovery efforts. The military has separately deployed around 1,300 troops, some of whom were seen cleaning debris and salvaging furniture at flooded neighborhoods in southern Seoul. There were no immediate reports of major damage or casualties in regions south of the capital area, where the weather agency issued heavy rain warnings. Landslide warnings were issued in more than 30 cities and towns across the country, More than 52 centimeters (20 inches) of rain was measured in Seoul’s hardest-hit Dongjak district from Monday to Wednesday at noon. Precipitation in the area exceeded 14 centimeters (5.5 inches) per hour at one point Monday night — the highest hourly downpour measured in Seoul since 1942.

Which HyperX keyboard is best? A keyboard is one of the most essential pieces of a computer setup. Without one, there isn’t a lot that you can do. HyperX keyboards are aimed at PC and console gamers. The bright colors, loud keys and accompanying software aim to give gamers control over their devices, allowing for precision tweaks while injecting a bit of personality. The HyperX Alloy Elite 2 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is an excellent choice, as it has the signature light bar, USB pass-through and dedicated media keys. What to know before you buy a HyperX keyboard Key switch types Before settling on a keyboard, you must ask yourself what feeling you would like when pressing down on the keys. It might seem frivolous, but it forms an important aspect of deciding on a HyperX keyboard. - Membrane switches. These are what most people know. They are quieter than mechanical keys and have a rubber dome membrane that supports the keycap. - Mechanical switches. Most often found in gaming computers, these keyboards can use different switches depending on the tactile feedback you require. Some provide a loud clicky sound, others have a lower travel time, and some need more force to be pushed down. Keyboard sizes HyperX manufactures a wide range of keyboards in different sizes. They all function in the same way but some are smaller than the traditional ones. If you don’t have a preference, you’ll get more bang for your buck by going for a full-size mechanical keyboard. On the other hand, if you travel often with your keyboard and need to store it in a bag, a tenkeyless or half keyboard will be better. Backlight customization RGB lighting is seemingly included in every gaming peripheral, and HyperX is no different. All of its keyboards have customizable RGB backlighting, so you can change it to whatever color you want. If you aren’t that keen on having your keyboard look like the controls of a spaceship, there is an option to switch it off — or go with a more subdued single color. What to look for in a quality HyperX keyboard Sturdy build A solid keyboard is an investment that should last you a couple of years. But it will only stand the test of time if the construction materials are sturdy, with robust craftsmanship. Plenty of HyperX keyboards use a metal plate as a base, giving them heft and rigidity. It’s also relatively easy to feel (or even hear) when cheap plastic is used for a keyboard. So, a good-quality HyperX keyboard uses premium plastic for the switches, keycaps and trim. Media controls It can be challenging when you want to adjust the volume on your computer if your headphones don’t have built-in controls. You’d need to go into the desktop menus and change it from there. But if you have a keyboard with multimedia controls, you can achieve the same result by having the volume, skip track and pause/play buttons at your fingertips. It’s not a necessity, but it’s mighty convenient. Macro customization Even if you have a keyboard with the full gamut of available options, your fingers can only stretch so far to initiate an action. That is where macro customization comes in handy, as you can easily program several keystrokes and bind them to a single combination. It’s essential during fast-paced games or massive online battle arenas where your character has many abilities with its own key combinations. How much you can expect to spend on a HyperX keyboard The price largely depends on its functions and size. An entry-level wired keyboard costs $30-$40, but a full-size keyboard with macro customization runs $80-$130. HyperX keyboard FAQ Are HyperX keyboards compatible with Apple Mac? A. Some are, such as the Alloy Elite 2, but most aren’t. However, they are compatible with Microsoft’s Xbox One console and Sony’s PlayStation 5 console. Why are some keyboards called ‘tenkeyless’? A. The meaning is that the keyboard has ten keys less than a full-size keyboard. Typically this refers to the lack of a numerical pad on the right side. What’s the best HyperX keyboard to buy? Top HyperX keyboard HyperX Alloy Elite 2 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard What you need to know: With full media controls and a numerical keypad, you have everything you need at your fingertips. What you’ll love: This keyboard comes with HyperX Pudding keycaps, which are slightly translucent so that the RGB colors display through. It also features HyperX’s signature light bar for more customization. What you should consider: It’s only available with HyperX Red switches, and you can’t change them to other options. Where to buy: Sold by Amazon Top HyperX keyboard for the money HyperX Alloy Core RGB Membrane Gaming Keyboard What you need to know: This colorful keyboard has six preset LED lighting effects and uses a metal plate for a sturdy base. What you’ll love: The membrane switches allow for quieter typing and have anti-ghosting technology that lets you press keys simultaneously while registering them quickly. It’s spill-resistant, and has a numerical pad and dedicated media controls. What you should consider: The attached cable is in the center of the keyboard, making effective cable management difficult. Where to buy: Sold by Amazon Worth checking out HyperX Alloy Origins Core Tenkeyless Mechanical Gaming What you need to know: If you prefer a smaller keyboard, this one doesn’t have a numerical pad and the detachable cable makes it easy to store. What you’ll love: The keyboard has an aircraft-grade aluminum body, giving it some heft. While it doesn’t have HyperX’s signature light bar, it has dynamic RGB per-key lighting. What you should consider: It doesn’t have any media controls, but you can program macro keys for that. Where to buy: Sold by Amazon Want to shop the best products at the best prices?

MELBOURNE, Australia, Aug. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Australian biotechnology company Starpharma today announced it has signed a new DEP® Research Agreement with MSD, the trade name of Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC, Rahway, NJ, USA. This new DEP® program will generate and evaluate additional DEP® Antibody Drug Conjugates (ADCs). This new agreement follows an earlier DEP® Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) agreement that Starpharma signed with MSD in February 2021 as well as an expanded DEP® Research Agreement with another large US biopharmaceutical company in June 2022. "We are very pleased to add this new DEP® ADC program with MSD and to continue building on our partnership with them in such an innovative and valuable area. This new DEP® program underlines the potential clinical and commercial value our DEP® technology can deliver," said Dr Jackie Fairley, CEO of Starpharma. "This is the second DEP® partnering agreement that Starpharma has signed in the last two months, signifying increased momentum and interest in the DEP® platform." Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have become an increasingly valuable class of therapeutic agents in oncology and hematology. The design of ADCs incorporates the specific cell targeting property of antibodies with the cell killing properties of chemically conjugated drugs, to provide a targeted therapeutic with minimal off target toxicities. Starpharma's DEP® ADCs have the potential to overcome the limitation of relatively low drug loading that is a feature of first-generation ADCs. The DEP® technology allows precise attachment of drug loaded dendrimer(s) to targeting molecules with a high load of covalently link drug (4, 8,16, 32 drug molecules per dendrimer) providing a selective, homogeneous ADC with a significantly higher drug-antibody ratio (DAR) as compared to currently available ADCs. Starpharma has previously demonstrated the advantages of DEP® in ADCs in multiple preclinical studies, including for DEP® HER-2 ADC, which showed significant tumour regression and 100% survival, outperforming Herceptin & Kadcyla in a human ovarian cancer model. DEP® ADCs are the subject of both internal and partnered DEP® programs. Starpharma has multiple DEP® partnerships with leading, international companies, including AstraZeneca, MSD, and Chase Sun, and the company's DEP® technology has already yielded four clinical-stage oncology products.

Parliamentary panel recommends senior citizen rebate restoration in sleeper class, AC 3-tier Standing Committee on Railways also urged the Ministry to give wide publicity to the "give up" scheme, which encourages senior citizens to give up their concessions voluntarily. A Parliamentary Committee has recommended that senior citizen concessions be reviewed and restored "urgently" at least for sleeper class and AC 3-tier train travel. In its report submitted on August 4, the Standing Committee on Railways said senior citizens were earlier granted a concession amounting to 40-50% of their railway fares, but the practice was stopped during the COVID-19 crisis. It also urged the Ministry to give wide publicity to the "give up" scheme, which encourages senior citizens to give up their concessions voluntarily. The Ministry of Railways in its action-taken report has stated that in view of the pandemic, concession to all categories of passengers (except the four categories of Divyangjan, and 11 categories of patients and students) have been withdrawn. "Given the reply of the government, the Committee note that as of now, the concession to senior citizens has been withdrawn in view of the pandemic and COVID-19 protocol. The Committee are of the view that since the Railways are heading towards normalcy, they should consider the concessions granted to various categories of passengers judiciously. "The Committee desire that concession to senior citizens which was available in pre-COVID times may be reviewed and considered at least in Sleeper Class and III AC urgently, so that the vulnerable and the genuinely needy senior citizens could avail the facility in these classes," the Committee headed by BJP leader Radha Mohan Singh said. The Railways spends around ₹2,000 crore on senior citizen concessions annually. - Comments will be moderated by The Hindu editorial team. - Comments that are abusive, personal, incendiary or irrelevant cannot be published. - Please write complete sentences.

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate LONDON (AP) — As Britain swelters through a roasting summer, and braces for a cold financial reckoning in the fall, calls for the Conservative government to act are getting louder. But the Conservatives are busy choosing a new leader, through a prolonged party election whose priorities often seem remote from the country’s growing turmoil. Britons’ energy bills have soared — and further hikes are coming — as the war in Ukraine squeezes global oil and gas supplies. The Bank of England is predicting a long, deep recession later this year alongside 13% inflation. Meanwhile, temperatures in Britain hit 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) in July for the first time ever, and millions are facing limits on water use as England’s green and pleasant land dries to a desiccated brown. There is little sense of crisis among Conservatives as Foreign Secretary Liz Truss and former Treasury chief Rishi Sunak crisscross the country wooing the 180,000 party members who will choose a successor to departing Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Under Britain’s parliamentary system, the winner of the Tory leadership race — to be announced Sept. 5 — will also become prime minister, without the need for a national election. Conservative members are largely middle-aged or older, mostly middle-class or affluent, and their views don’t always reflect those of the country as a whole. “I’d like to see some true Conservative policies,” said Helen Galley, a lawyer and local Conservative official attending a candidates’ meeting in the English seaside town of Eastbourne. “Low taxation, smaller state, less regulation, freeing industry and commerce from EU regulations. … Some self-reliance and sense of responsibility for yourself.” Those priorities are mirrored in the campaign pitches of Truss and Sunak, who say they will tackle the cost-of-living crisis through long-term measures to boost the economy. Truss says she would cut individual and corporate taxes rather than give people “handouts.” Sunak says he’ll tackle inflation before lowering taxes, and will offer unspecified help to people struggling to pay their bills. Critics say neither candidate is grasping the scale of the crisis. Millions of households face a financial squeeze in October, when a cap on household energy bills tied to wholesale prices is next raised. Consulting firm Cornwall Insight forecasts the average household will then be paying over 3,500 pounds ($4,200) a year for gas and electricity, more than double the amount a year earlier — with a further hike due in the new year. Martin Lewis, a consumer champion who runs the popular Money Saving Expert website, has warned that “we are facing a potential national financial cataclysm,” with millions unable to heat their homes this winter. Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who led the U.K. during the global financial crisis of 2008, called for Johnson, Truss and Sunak to get together and draw up an emergency budget in preparation for a “financial time bomb” in October. “It’s not just that they’re asleep at the wheel — there’s nobody at the wheel at the moment,” Brown, a member of the opposition Labour Party, told broadcaster ITV. Brown's call was echoed by Tony Danker of business group the Confederation of British Industry, who said “we simply cannot afford a summer of government inactivity while the leadership contest plays out.” But with Parliament adjourned for its summer recess and Johnson whiling away his last weeks in office, big policies are on hold. The few government announcements in recent weeks have been decidedly modest — one was a plan from a “Chewing Gum Task Force” to get sticky stains off city streets. Johnson’s spokesman, Max Blain, said the outgoing leader is barred from making “major fiscal interventions” during the transition period, and any new cost-of-living remedies must be for the next prime minister to decide. “The Conservative Party -- and therefore the government -- is having a completely different conversation to the public,” said Alan Wager, a research associate at the U.K. in a Changing Europe think-tank. “And it’s quite a serious time to be having this very big disjuncture.” Anti-poverty and environmental protesters have dogged Truss and Sunak at campaign events — a reminder of the world outside the Conservative bubble. In Eastbourne, several climate activists who had infiltrated the crowd stood to heckle Truss for failing to tackle the climate crisis. They were removed to chants of “Out, out, out” from the Conservative audience. The environment has scarcely featured in the contest. Both Truss and Sunak say they will keep the government’s target of cutting Britain’s carbon emissions to net zero by 2050, while offering policies that would make that harder. Truss supports fracking and renewed North Sea oil and gas extraction and says she will suspend green levies used to fund renewable energy projects. Sunak wants to ban new onshore wind farms, though he supports offshore wind and more nuclear power to cut Britain’s carbon footprint. Party polls suggest Truss likely has an unassailable lead in the contest. Sunak is regarded with suspicion by some Tories for quitting the scandal-plagued government last month, a move that helped bring Johnson down. The former finance minister has been painted by opponents as a high-taxing, high-spending near-socialist because of the billions he spent to prop up the economy during the coronavirus pandemic. Truss styles herself as a disruptor who will “be bold” in slashing taxes and ripping up red tape — a message many Tories are keen to hear. Party member Robbie Lammas, part of a “Liz for Leader” contingent at the Eastbourne event, said he likes Truss’s “more optimistic view” of the economy. “It’s good to be bold and good to challenge orthodoxy,” he said. Another audience member, Wilhelmina Fermore, said she was “on the fence,” but leaning toward supporting Truss because “she’s more engaging and I think that she relates to people on the street.” Yet what appeals to the Conservative Party does not necessarily appeal to the country. And Chris Curtis, head of political polling at research company Opinium, says the candidates’ economic promises will soon collide with stark reality. “Liz Truss can believe all she likes that she’s going to be able to solve this thing through tax cuts, but there’s a big chunk of the population that’s about to get hammered,” he said. “Talking about how you are going to help those people is not the kind of thing that will appeal to Conservative Party members … (but) there is going to have to be a new massive intervention to help people this autumn.”

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate Russia and Ukraine have accused each other of shelling Europe's largest nuclear power plant, stoking international fears of a catastrophe on the continent. A look at the plant and the situation around it: EUROPE'S BIGGEST NUCLEAR PLANT The Zaporizhzhia plant is in southern Ukraine, near the town of Enerhodar on the banks of the Dnieper River. It is one of the 10 biggest nuclear plants in the world. Built during the Soviet era, it has six reactors with a total capacity of 5,700 megawatts. Three of the reactors are in operation. Before the war, the plant accounted for about half of the electricity generated by nuclear power in Ukraine. The country has 15 reactors at four active plants, and also is home to the decommissioned Chernobyl plant, the site of the 1986 nuclear disaster. RUSSIANS TAKE CONTROL Russian troops overran the plant shortly after invading Ukraine on Feb. 24. During the fighting in early March, Russian and Ukrainian forces exchanged fire near the plant. The skirmishes resulted in a fire at its training complex. The Russians have left the Ukrainian staff in place to keep the plant operating, and it has continued to supply electricity to government-controlled parts of Ukraine. The fighting around the plant has fueled fears of a disaster like the one at Chernobyl, where a reactor exploded and spewed deadly radiation, contaminating a vast area in the world's worst nuclear accident. Russian forces occupied the heavily contaminated Chernobyl site soon after the invasion but handed control back to the Ukrainians after withdrawing from the area at the end of March. RUSSIA AND UKRAINE TRADE ACCUSATIONS Ukraine has accused Russia of storing troops and weapons at the plant and using its grounds to launch strikes against Ukrainian-controlled territory across the Dnieper. Ukrainian officials and military analysts say Moscow's forces have cynically employed the plant as a shield, knowing that the Ukrainians would be hesitant to fire back. Russia has denied the accusations and, in turn, accused Ukrainian forces of repeatedly shelling the plant. A series of attacks on the plant over the past few days has damaged some of its auxiliary equipment but not its reactors, and there has been no threat of a radiation leak, according to Russian authorities. The Russian Defense Ministry said Ukrainian shelling of the plant on Sunday caused a power surge and smoke, triggering an emergency shutdown and forcing the staff to lower output from two of the reactors. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned that the Ukrainian shelling of the plant is "fraught with catastrophic consequences for vast territories, for the entire Europe,” while the Russian Foreign Ministry has accused Ukraine of “taking the entire Europe hostage.” Ukrainian officials countered by accusing Russian forces of planting explosives at the plant in preparation for an expected Ukrainian counteroffensive in the region. They also have accused Russia of launching attacks from the plant using Ukrainian workers there as human shields and shelling the place themselves. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the Russian shelling and mining of the plant amount to “nuclear blackmail.” Zaporizhzhia Gov. Oleksandr Starukh said that while the reactors are well protected by their thick concrete containment domes, it is impossible to guarantee their safe operation because of the Russian troops' presence. He noted, too, that the storage sites at the plant for spent nuclear fuel are not as well protected as the reactors. Mark Wenman, a nuclear expert at London’s Imperial College, said the plant’s reactors are designed “to protect against natural disasters and or man-made incidents such as aircraft crashes or reactor accidents.” “I do not believe there would be a high probability of a breach of the containment building even if it was accidentally struck by an explosive shell, and even less likely the reactor itself could be damaged by such,” he said. He added that the spent fuel is also stored in "very robust steel and concrete containers that are designed to withstand very high-energy impacts.” CALLS FOR INTERNATIONAL MONITORING Rafael Mariano Grossi, director-general of the United Nations' nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, told The Associated Press last week that the situation surrounding the Zaporizhzhia plant “is completely out of control,” and he issued an urgent plea to Russia and Ukraine to allow experts to visit the complex to stabilize matters and avoid a nuclear accident. “Every principle of nuclear safety has been violated” at the plant, Grossi said. “What is at stake is extremely serious and extremely grave and dangerous.” Grossi said the supply chain of equipment and spare parts has been interrupted, “so we are not sure the plant is getting all it needs.” He noted that the IAEA also needs to perform highly important inspections to ensure that nuclear material is being safeguarded. Grossi added that there have been instances of friction and reports of violence between the Russians and the Ukrainian staff. “When you put this together, you have a catalog of things that should never be happening in any nuclear facility,” Grossi said. RUSSIA AND UKRAINE CLASH OVER IAEA VISIT The IAEA has sought in vain to send an inspection team to the plant for months. Moscow has said it welcomes a visit to the plant by the IAEA, but it is unclear whether it is ready to actually help arrange such a trip. Ukraine previously opposed Grossi's visit to the site for as long as it remains under Moscow's control, demanding the Russian military withdraw. This week, however, Ukrainian officials appeared to warm up to such a trip, with Ukraine’s ombudsman, Dmytro Lubinets, urging the U.N. and IAEA to send a delegation to help “completely demilitarize the territory” and provide security guarantees to plant employees. ____ Follow the AP’s coverage of the war at https://apnews.com/hub/russia-ukraine

Iraq's July oil output rises by around 70,000 bpd, SOMO data show Aug 10 (Reuters) - Iraq pumped 4.584 million barrels per day (bpd) of oil in July, up by 69,000 bpd from June, data from state-owned marketer SOMO seen by Reuters showed on Wednesday. According to the production figures, Iraq´s output was just above its OPEC+ quota of 4.580 mln bpd for July. OPEC+, a grouping of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies led by Russia, uses an average of secondary source production figures to determine compliance with output quotas. Secondary sources placed Iraqi production at an average of 34,000 bpd below its quota in the second quarter and 75,000 bpd below its ceiling in June.

Musk sells Tesla shares worth $6.9 billion, cites chance of forced Twitter deal Musk in early July tore up his April 25 agreement to buy Twitter for $44 billion. Twitter has sued Musk to force him to complete the transaction, dismissing his claim that he was misled about the number of spam accounts on the social media platform as buyer's remorse in the wake of a plunge in technology stocks. The two sides head to trial on Oct. 17. Tesla Inc Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk sold $6.9 billion worth of shares in the electric vehicle maker, saying the funds could be used to finance a potential Twitter deal if he loses a legal battle with the social media platform. "In the (hopefully unlikely) event that Twitter forces this deal to close *and* some equity partners don't come through, it is important to avoid an emergency sale of Tesla stock," he said in a tweet late on Tuesday. Musk in early July tore up his April 25 agreement to buy Twitter for $44 billion. Twitter has sued Musk to force him to complete the transaction, dismissing his claim that he was misled about the number of spam accounts on the social media platform as buyer's remorse in the wake of a plunge in technology stocks. The two sides head to trial on Oct. 17. "Street will read through this poker move that chances of Twitter deal more likely now," Dan Ives, an analyst at Wedbush Securities, tweeted. In other comments on Twitter on Tuesday, Musk said "yes" when asked if he was done selling Tesla stock, and also said he would buy Tesla stock again if the Twitter deal does not close. Tesla did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. Musk, the world's richest person, sold $8.5 billion worth of Tesla shares in April and had said at the time there were no further sales planned. But since then, legal experts had suggested that if Musk is forced to complete the acquisition or settle the dispute with a stiff penalty, he was likely to sell more Tesla shares. Musk sold about 7.92 million shares between Aug.5 and Aug.9, according to multiple filings. He now owns 155.04 million Tesla shares or just under 15% of the automaker according to Reuters calculations. The latest sales bring total Tesla stock sales by Musk to about $32 billion in less than one year. Tesla shares have risen nearly 15% since the automaker reported better-than-expected earnings on July 20, also helped by the Biden administration's climate bill that, if passed, would lift the cap on tax credits for electric vehicles. Musk also teased on Tuesday that he could start his own social media platform. When asked by a Twitter user if he had thought about creating his own platform if the deal didn't close, he replied: "X.com" The company will stop producing Jazz after October 2022 while the crossover WR-V will not be produced beyond March 2023. The carmaker will also stop the production and sale of the 4th Generation Honda City by December 2022 in the country. However, the 5th generation of the sedan will continue to be available in the market, a source in the know of things told ETAuto.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) — A logistics provider plans to invest $25 million for a new operation in Bowling Green that will create 110 jobs, Gov. Andy Beshear said. Bluegrass Supply Chain Services LLC is expanding its logistics capabilities to serve the automotive and food and beverage markets, according to a statement Tuesday from Beshear's office. “This investment highlights the continued growth of existing businesses in our state, which play an integral role in building a brighter future for Kentuckians," Beshear said. Company leaders will co-develop and lease a facility in Bowling Green in partnership with Sunnyside Gott REIG for office and warehousing space. It will be the company’s second location in the community. Work on the project is expected to begin in October and be completed by January 2024. “We are excited to develop a new corporate office, warehouse space and a truck facility to support our operations in Bowling Green and Warren County,” Bluegrass Supply Chain CEO John Higgins said.

Domino's exits Italy after failing to win over ancestral home of pizza The company's cheese-filled crusts and pineapple-topped pizzas failed to gain a foothold in a competitive market Wednesday 10 August 2022 10:16, UK Domino's has closed the last of its 29 stores in Italy, marking the end of an ambitious plan to launch American pizza in the culinary dish's ancestral home. Domino's arrived in Italy in 2015, when it already had more than 12,000 stores worldwide. It opened stores in Milan before expanding to other centres, including Rome, Bologna, and Turin. According to an NBC report at the time, it planned to win customers over with "purely Italian" ingredients such as "100 percent" tomato sauce and mozzarella, and products like prosciutto di parma, gorgonzola, grana padano and mozzarella di bufala campana. It targeted a 2% market share and aimed to open hundreds of restaurants in the country by 2030, counting on its delivery aspect to give it an edge. But when dining out was restricted during the pandemic lockdowns, Italy's traditional pizzerias also moved into delivery. And there was stiff competition from home food delivery apps including Glovo, Deliveroo, and Just Eat, according to Bloomberg, which first reported the story. Social media users greeted news of Domino's Italian exit with a distinct lack of surprise. "Never try to sell ice to Eskimoes," one Twitter user wrote. "May we all have the insane confidence of the dominos executive who pitched opening in Italy," another added. Sky News has sought comment from Domino's in the US, which had partnered with Italian firm ePizza SpA for the franchising agreement. EPizza SpA filed for bankruptcy in Italy in April. Britain's Domino's Pizza Group is a franchisee of US-listed Domino's Pizza Inc and only operates stores in the UK and Ireland.

China's producer price growth eases in July BEIJING, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- China's producer price index (PPI), which measures costs for goods at the factory gate, went up 4.2 percent year on year in July, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Wednesday. The figure moderated from the 6.1 percent year-on-year increase registered in June. On a monthly basis, China's PPI fell 1.3 percent in July. Due to various domestic and international factors, the prices of industrial products fell on the whole last month, said senior NBS statistician Dong Lijuan. Among 40 industrial sectors surveyed, 35 saw year-on-year price growth in July, down from 37 in June, NBS data showed. The coal mining and washing industry saw its PPI climb 20.7 percent year on year in July, shrinking 10.7 percentage points from June. The PPI of the oil and gas extraction industry went up 43.9 percent year on year in July, down 10.5 percentage points from June. The carry-over effect of last year's price movements contributed about 3.2 percentage points to the year-on-year PPI growth in July, according to the NBS. Wednesday's data also showed that China's consumer price index, a main gauge of inflation, rose 2.7 percent year on year in July.

U.S. SEC to propose new rule boosting hedge, private fund leverage disclosures – source By Katanga Johnson WASHINGTON, Aug 9 (Reuters) - The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will propose a new rule on Wednesday aimed at boosting hedge and private fund leverage disclosures, among other details, according to a source familiar with the agency's thinking. The proposal by the Wall Street regulator would require funds to provide more information on leverage as part of their confidential "Form-PF" disclosures, the person said, adding that the measure would also apply to fund advisers who operate as commodity investors and traders under Commodity Futures Trading Commission rules, the person said. The proposal is part of a broader effort by the SEC to boost transparency of the private fund industry amid worries the industry is a growing source of systemic risk, and follows a January draft rule that boosted other Form PF disclosures. Form PF, which was introduced following the 2007-2009 global financial crisis, is the primary way private funds disclose purchases and sales of securities to the SEC. Regulators have grown concerned over risk in the private industry after hedge fund de-leveraging contributed toward turmoil in the U.S. Treasuries market in March 2020 and hedge funds were again at the center of last year's GameStop GME.N "meme-stock" saga, analysts say. Critics argue that while the sector has ballooned following the 2007-2009 financial crisis, regulatory scrutiny of private funds -- which are heavy users of leverage -- has not kept up. Wednesday's rule is expected to boost the level of detail large private-fund and hedge advisors must spell out around their use of leverage, the same source said. The SEC declined to comment. Reuters could not immediately determine what further changes the SEC rule would include. Leverage is a financial technique generally used to increase investment exposure and ramp up returns, but it can also exacerbate losses. The International Organization of Securities Commissions, which comprises regulators across the world, said in a January report that some private fund leverage is being hidden from view.

IPE Photographer of the year award unveils nominations To mark the upcoming World Photography Day, Indian Photo Festival (IPF) in association with HMDA and CREDAl Hyderabad, unveiled nominations for the upcoming IPF Photographer of The Year Award. All the nominated photographs will be showcased at the State Art Gallery, Madhapur from August 19 to September 19. In its first edition, IPF selected 5 nominations each, across eight categories. The final winners will be announced in a gala event to be held in Hyderabad in September. Sharing his views, Arvind Kumar, Special Chief Secretary, MA & UD and Director General (NIUM) said that Hyderabad has marked itself on the global map with regards to IT, infrastructure, entertainment, etc. “But the city is so much more than this. Our rich heritage and culture getting showcased at distinguished international artistic platforms like IPF and IPF Photographer of The Year Award, helps us take Hyderabad beyond the geographical boundaries,” he said. Mr. Kumar said that the State government is doing this on the occasion of ‘Swatantra Bharat Vajrotsavalu’ to showcase the best talent in photography. These awards also give an opportunity and exposure to our local photographers to see the works of people from around the world. “We encourage people from in and around Hyderabad, to take advantage of this opportunity and visit this one-month-long unique exhibit at the state art gallery,” the senior IAS officer said. “Receiving entries from across 85 countries for our first edition was an overwhelming response. The submissions were outstanding and did pose a challenge for the jury to select nominations as some of the works submitted were simply remarkable,” said Aquin Mathews, Founder and Director, Indian Photo Festival. He said that they were sure to scale up these awards year on year in the benefit of the photography community. “Initiatives like these not only bring the community together but also give photographers a larger platform and exposure while adding credibility and validation to their works”, said Mr. Mathews said. The entries were called in for eight categories - Photojournalism, Documentary, Travel and Nature, Wildlife, Street, Portrait, Wedding and Mobiles. Submissions were made by professional and non- professional photographers. The winning images and winning photographers will get an opportunity to travel the world and promote their work. - Comments will be moderated by The Hindu editorial team. - Comments that are abusive, personal, incendiary or irrelevant cannot be published. - Please write complete sentences.

Japan’s Toshiba boosts profit on devices, auto sector demand By YURI KAGEYAMA AP Business Writer TOKYO (AP) — Toshiba has reported a 44% improvement in profit in the last quarter as the Japanese technology giant revamps its brand image and seeks to reassure investors about its management. Quarterly sales rose 2%. Toshiba has promised to boost annual sales by forging ahead with clean energy, infrastructure projects, data services, devices and storage businesses. The company said Wednesday that demand for electronic devices and storage and digital solutions, including from the auto sector, was healthy. In March, investors rejected a company-backed reform proposal to split Toshiba into two businesses. An earlier plan that also was scrapped called for a three-way split.
