Rockingham County Schools recently announced three new administrative positions.
Erselle Young on Sept. 2 will become the district’s new Assistant Superintendent of Operations and Logistics.
Young will oversee the RCS district’s transportation, nutrition, technology and maintenance, among many other duties, Superintendent John Stover said in a news release.
Young, who has worked for Rockingham County Schools since 2002, has served as a principal at two schools in the district, while also managing the district’s Nutrition and Career/Technical Education departments.
“Her diverse experiences will give her a unique perspective, along with the ability to align our operations with school needs,” Stover said.
A graduate of Averett University, Young holds a master’s degree in School Administration from Appalachian State University. Young worked in the banking industry for nearly a decade before becoming a member of the adjunct faculty at Patrick Henry Community College Foundation in Martinsville, Va., in 1999.

With House of the Dragon, HBO is expanding the world of Game of Thrones by going back several hundred years to focus on House Targaryen. The all-new series is adapted from George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood by co-creators and executive producers Miguel Sapochnik and Ryan Condal, who have been tasked with breathing new life (or fire) into the franchise three years after the original series ended in 2019 with a Targaryen reclaiming the Iron Throne.
But long before Daenerys (Emilia Clarke), there was a deadly battle of succession as the Targaryens struggled to find a suitable heir to maintain the family’s continued rule over King’s Landing in Westeros. And given the subsequent political maneuvering that plays out in the House of the Dragon, it’s no surprise that Sapochnik and Condal tell ET that the two series that were top of mind in the writers’ room during season 1 were HBO’s other family drama and a historical drama about the royal family on Netflix.
“The shows we talked about the most in the writers’ room were Succession and The Crown,” Condal says of the discussions that went “beyond Game of Thrones, which was talked about all the time.”
Similarly to House of the Dragon, the series created by Jesse Armstrong follows a super wealthy and a super powerful family, whose patriarch runs a media conglomerate. And when his health and status at the top is questioned, the other family members start making their own moves and claims for the seat at the head of the table.
The Crown, meanwhile, chronicles the rise and reign of Queen Elizabeth II and her family’s rule over the ever-evolving British empire. The series, which also starred Matt Smith, who portrayed Prince Philip in seasons 1 and 2 before taking on the dastardly role of Daemon Targaryen on House of the Dragon, is a fitting choice, not only because of the parallels of a woman taking the throne but also since Martin loosely based Fire & Blood on extended British royal history -- and the infighting that went along with it.
“So, in terms of story references, tonal references, dramatic rhythms and pacing. You know, structuring a story,” Condal says that both series were “talked about all the time,” with the executive producer adding that they’re “all big fans of [Succession].”
Of course, the original series in the franchise was a major reference point, with Sapochnik revealing that the “chaos is a ladder” scene between Littlefinger (Aidan Gillen) and Varys (Conleth Hill) in season 3 was a key moment discussed in the writers’ room. According to the director, Condal wanted to “show the writers a specific scene that for [him] defined what Game of Thrones was.”
“[It’s] funny, ‘cause when you actually look it up, ‘chaos is a ladder’ was a scene that was written when the episode was too short and they had to write something extra to fill in the episode,” Sapochnik says. “And so, it was a scene that had almost nothing to do with the show, but somehow became a perfect kind of way of describing the tonality of how the show ended up.”
When it comes to the series as a whole, and what it established over the course of eight seasons, Condal says he wanted to lean into “its tone and voice” while creating House of the Dragon. “I think those are the two most important things that made that show what it was,” he says, referring to what executive producers David Benioff and D. B. Weiss “created in the beginning [and what] Miguel carried on in those later seasons.”
Additionally, “the voice of the show, which I think began with George, but then was adapted for the screen by David and Dan,” Condal continues. “Those two things, I think, are the things that most orient people into that world. And those were the things we had to recreate first, if we had any hope of any success.”
And given that this series takes place in the same world, just two hundred years prior, there will be lots of familiar settings, families and relics, including the Balerion skull, which first appeared on Game of Thrones. But those appearances or references aren’t merely Easter eggs for the benefit of fans. “It’s really easy to get carried away with all of the Easter eggs and all of the nods here and there,” Sapochnik warns, with Condal adding that “with Easter eggs and things, I’m always very suspicious of those ‘cause they feel fan servicey.”
“If there’s a real reason to do it, if there’s something that has story resonance or spiritual resonance and there’s a reason to do it, then I think it’s great because it’s a way of connecting these two things over this vast chasm of 170 years,” Condal continues, adding that “there’s a lot of resonance with the original series.”
But at the end of the day, Sapochnik says, “we’ve gotta be careful ‘cause it’s gotta be our own.”
House of the Dragon premieres Sunday, Aug. 21 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and HBO Max.

Caratini’s 2-run single in 11th rallies Brewers over Dodgers
By RICH ROVITO
Associated Press
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Victor Caratini hit a two-run single off Dodgers closer Craig Kimbrel in the 11th inning, rallying the Milwaukee Brewers over Los Angeles 5-4 on Tuesday night.
A sensational catch by Dodgers center fielder Chris Taylor in the 10th kept the game tied. Taylor homered in the seventh to make it 3-all.
Batting with the bases loaded and one out against Kimbrel (3-5), Caratini blooped a hit to right field that scored automatic runner Andrew McCutchen and Hunter Renfroe, who had reached on a bunt single.
The Brewers won despite getting just five hits off seven pitchers. The teams have split the first two games of a four-game set.
The Dodgers have lost two of three since a 12-game winning streak.
Justin Turner’s run-scoring single off Milwaukee reliever Brent Suter (4-4) gave the Dodgers a 4-3 in the top of the 11th.
In a back-and-forth matchup, the Brewers nearly won in the 10th. With two outs and two on, McCutchen hit a liner deep into the left-center field gap that Taylor caught with a flying, backhanded grab. Reliever Alex Vesia stood behind the mound and yelled.
The Brewers jumped on Dodgers rookie starter Ryan Pepiot in the first. Christian Yelich drew a leadoff walk and Willy Adames followed with his 23rd homer.
Milwaukee starter Brandon Woodruff pitched four shutout innings before Joey Gallo tagged him for a leadoff homer in the fifth. It was the third homer for Gallo, who was inserted in the lineup in place of struggling Cody Bellinger, since coming to the Dodgers earlier this month in a trade deadline deal with the New York Yankees.
Mookie Betts followed two batters later with another solo homer to make it 2-all.
Yelich hit a solo homer in the fifth, ending his 0-for-26 slump. It was his first home run since July 2 at Pittsburgh and first at home since May 5.
Taylor’s solo home run in the seventh off Matt Bush pulled the Dodgers even again.
Woodruff gave up five hits and two runs in five innings. He walked two and struck out eight.
Pepiot, making his sixth start of the season, surrendered three hits and three runs in 4 2/3 innings. He walked five and had six strikeouts.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Dodgers: LHP Clayton Kershaw didn’t make the trip to Milwaukee but has been throwing at his home in Texas, manager Dave Roberts said. Kershaw has been out since earlier this month with back soreness. … LHP Andrew Heaney, who sustained a left arm contusion after being struck by a comebacker that forced him to leave his last start in Kansas City on Saturday, threw a bullpen session on Tuesday and will make his next scheduled start on Thursday in the series finale, Roberts said.
Brewers: RHP Adrian Houser (right elbow) gave up five hits and three earned runs in a 28-pitch rehab outing with Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday. … C Omar Narváez (left quadriceps), who began a rehab assignment with Nashville, went 2-for-4 as the DH. He is expected to be behind the plate for Nashville on Wednesday.
UP NEXT
Dodgers: Tony Gonsolin (14-1, 2.24 ERA) is tied for second in the major leagues in wins. He’ll be making his first start vs. the Brewers.
Brewers: LHP Eric Lauer (8-4, 3.64) has gone 6-0 with a 2.56 ERA in nine career starts against the Dodgers. Lauer will make his 22nd start of the season.

The fatal film set shooting of a cinematographer by actor Alec Baldwin last year was an accident, according to a determination made by New Mexico’s Office of the Medical Investigator following the completion of an autopsy and a review of law enforcement reports.
The medical investigator’s report was made public Monday by the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office, along with numerous reports from the FBI on the revolver and ammunition that were collected following the shooting.
Prosecutors have not yet decided whether any charges will be filed in the case, saying they would review the latest reports and are awaiting cellphone data from Baldwin’s attorneys.
Baldwin was pointing a gun at cinematographer Halyna Hutchins when it went off Oct. 21, killing Hutchins and wounding the director, Joel Souza. They had been inside a small church during setup for filming a scene.
While it’s too early to say how much weight the medical investigator’s report will carry with the District Attorney’s Office, Baldwin’s legal team suggested it was further proof that the shooting was “a tragic accident” and that he should not face criminal charges.
“This is the third time the New Mexico authorities have found that Alec Baldwin had no authority or knowledge of the allegedly unsafe conditions on the set, that he was told by the person in charge of safety on the set that the gun was ‘cold,’ and believed the gun was safe,” attorney Luke Nikas said in a statement.
Baldwin said in a December interview with ABC News that he was pointing the gun at Hutchins at her instruction on the set of the Western film “Rust” when it went off after he cocked it. He said he did not pull the trigger.
An FBI analysis of the revolver that Baldwin had in his hand during the rehearsal suggested it was in working order at the time and would not have discharged unless it was fully cocked and the trigger was pulled.
With the hammer in full cock position, the FBI report stated the gun could not be made to fire without pulling the trigger while the working internal components were intact and functional.
During the testing of the gun by the FBI, authorities said, portions of the gun’s trigger sear and cylinder stop fractured while the hammer was struck. That allowed the hammer to fall and the firing pin to detonate the primer.
“This was the only successful discharge during this testing and it was attributed to the fracture of internal components, not the failure of the firearm or safety mechanisms,” the report stated.
It was unclear from the FBI report how many times the revolver’s hammer may have been struck during the testing.
Baldwin, who also was a producer on the movie “Rust,” has previously said the gun should not have been loaded for the rehearsal.
Among the ammunition seized from the film location were live rounds found on a cart and in the holster that was in the building where the shooting happened. Blank and dummy cartridges also were found.
New Mexico’s Occupational Health and Safety Bureau issued a scathing report in April that detailed a narrative of safety failures in violation of standard industry protocols, including testimony that production managers took limited or no action to address two misfires on set prior to the fatal shooting.
The bureau also documented gun safety complaints from crew members that went unheeded and said weapons specialists were not allowed to make decisions about additional safety training.
In reaching its conclusion that the shooting was an accident, New Mexico’s medical investigator’s office pointed to “the absence of obvious intent to cause harm or death” and stated that there was “no compelling demonstration” that the revolver was intentionally loaded with live ammunition on the set.

HAT YAI, Thailand (AP) — Thailand’s southernmost provinces, which for almost two decades have been the scene of an active Muslim separatist insurgency, were hit Tuesday night by a wave of arson and bombing attacks, officials said.
At least 17 attacks occurred in Pattani, Narathiwat and Yala provinces, mostly at convenience stores and gas stations, military spokesperson Pramote Promin said Wednesday. Three civilians were reported injured. There have been no claims of responsibility.
More than 7,300 people have been killed since the insurgency erupted in 2004 in the three provinces, the only ones with Muslim majorities in the Buddhist-dominated country. Attacks have also taken place in neighboring Songkhla province.
Muslim residents have long charged that they are treated like second-class citizens in Thailand, and separatist movements have been periodically active for decades. Heavy-handed crackdowns have fueled the discontent.
The attacks are the most high-profile ones since early April, when the Thai government and BRN — Barisan Revolusi Nasional Melayu Patani, the insurgent group believed to be the biggest — agreed to halt violence during the Muslim holy period of Ramadan. | https://www.mrt.com/news/article/Thailand-s-restive-south-hit-by-wave-of-arson-and-17378630.php | 2022-08-17T05:40:40Z | https://www.mrt.com/news/article/Thailand-s-restive-south-hit-by-wave-of-arson-and-17378630.php | false |
OSLO, Norway, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Multiconsult ASA (OSE: MULTI)
Multiconsult's second quarter EBITA came in at NOK 74.7 million, which gives an EBITA for the first half of 2022 at NOK 243.9 million. The operating EBITA margin in the quarter was 7.1 per cent, and 11.2 per cent in the first half of the year. High activity and solid operational performance, resulted in a growth in net operating revenues of 6.2 per cent to NOK 1 048.5 million in the quarter, while the organic revenue growth was 3.4 per cent. Higher operating expenses in the quarter is driven by an increase in employees from prior acquisitions and increased other operating expenses as business activities return to a normal post Covid-19 situation. The order intake has been good in the second quarter and gives a stable order backlog of NOK 3 521 million at the end of the period.
Notwithstanding the geopolitical instability, the increase in energy costs, and high inflation, the overall market outlook for Multiconsult's services is expected to remain good and stable with a solid activity level both in the public and private sector. Multiconsult holds a good portfolio of ongoing projects and a solid order backlog. Multiconsult generally experience a strong market in the traditional consultancy and engineering market within the construction industry. At the same time, Multiconsult is also exposed to the general uncertainty caused by a more unstable macro environment.
"Multiconsult delivered a strong quarter with a good result, good sales, and revenue growth. With increased capacity in a market with high activity our skilled workforce is able to meet the demands for competence related to complex challenges facing our clients. We experience that our robust business model based on a strong position in several business areas means we continue to win a good mix of large and small projects and are on schedule to deliver on our strategic ambitions and long-term profitable growth," says Grethe Bergly, CEO of Multiconsult ASA. "Going forward, we continue to monitor the development in the market and work closely with our clients and partners on the journey to develop and realise value-creating projects with a life-cycle perspective."
Second quarter 2022
Net operating revenues came in at NOK 1 048.5 million (986.8), an increase of 6.2 per cent compared to the same quarter last year. The increase in net operating revenues is impacted by revenues from acquired companies offset by a lower number of working days. Compared to the same period last year the organic growth in net operating revenues is estimated to 3.4 per cent after adjusting for the calendar effect and acquisitions. Higher average billing rates had a positive effect on net operating revenues compared to the same quarter last year.
Operating expenses increased by 12.0 per cent to NOK 923.5 million (824.5). The increase is mainly attributable to higher employee benefit expenses caused by added employees from prior acquisitions and ordinary salary adjustment. Other operating expenses increased on higher headcount and on increased expenditures in general as business activities return to a normal post Covid-19 situation.
EBITDA was NOK 125.0 million (162.3), a decrease of 23.0 per cent compared to the same period last year, reflecting an EBITDA margin of 11.9 per cent (16.5) in the quarter.
EBITA was NOK 74.7 million (114.6), reflecting an EBITA margin of 7.1 per cent (11.6) in the quarter.
Half year 2022
Net operating revenues increased by 11.2 per cent to NOK 2 186.6 million (1 965.9), when compared to the same period last year. The increase in net operating revenues is positively impacted by revenues from acquired companies. Billing ratio came in at 71.6 per cent which is at the same level as the comparable period. The billing rates continued to improve and contributed positively on net operating revenues when compared to the same period last year. Organic growth in the period was 2.5 per cent, adjusted for calendar effect and acquisitions.
Operating expenses consist mainly of employee benefit expenses and other operating expenses. Reported operating expenses increased by 11.1 per cent to NOK 1 841.5 million (1 656.9) driven by employees from prior acquisitions and increase in employee benefit expenses due to regular salary adjustment. Other operating expenses increased to NOK 259.3 million (206.9), partly an effect of operating expenses included from prior acquisitions, such as office expenses, and on general increase of expenditure due to a higher head count. In addition, other operating expenses increased in general as business activities return to a normal post Covid-19 situation.
EBITDA was NOK 345.1 million (309.0), an increase of 11.7 per cent compared to the same period last year.
EBITA was NOK 243.9 million (213.1), an increase of 14.5 per cent y-o-y, reflecting an EBITA margin of 11.2 per cent.
The overall market outlook for Multiconsult's four business areas remains generally strong and the opportunities in the pipeline are at a high level with some increased uncertainty. Multiconsult is expected to benefit from the growing market for long-term sustainable transformation within all business areas. This is driven by ongoing initiatives led by the industry and political initiatives. In addition, Multiconsult generally experience a strong market in the traditional consultancy and engineering market within the construction industry.
In the building and property market the long-term trend with sustainable transformation and rehabilitation is expected to continue. The infrastructure market is expected to continue at a high level and are expected to generate opportunities for Multiconsult. The renewable energy market is foreseen to increase due to the rise of energy demand and increasing energy costs, projects are currently starting up, post pandemic, and with a good pipeline. The maintenance lag in water- and wastewater infrastructure is significant, which together with a growing market for climate change adaptations, still suggests a good outlook in this area.
While the Covid-19 impact is diminishing, the Russian regime's invasion of Ukraine and a more unstable macro environment with general inflationary pressure now creates uncertainty. There is a higher than normal risk of delays and/or cancellations mainly as a result of budget cuts, cost overruns and cost increase in certain projects. The continued support and funding of public sector projects, as well as the timing of such projects, is of key importance to our business as potential delays or cancellations will impact our business negatively.
The order backlog and a solid order intake gives Multiconsult a good foundation to handle the continued uncertainties facing the economy and our industry.

Religious institutions are focused on spiritual matters, but they have long had substantial programs to help meet the worldly needs of society as well.
In a fresh affirmation of this, President Biden signed an executive order in February 2021 creating the Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships. The center ensures “that faith-based and community organizations, which form the bedrock of our society, have strong advocates within (the federal department of) Housing and Urban Development,” according to HUD.
It’s just a coincidence that a year later the Catholic Diocese of Camden and Atlantic County government are considering a project together to create housing for senior citizens on the county’s large property in Northfield on the border with Pleasantville. The Diocese of Camden’s Diocesan Housing Services Corp. has been pursuing its mission to provide quality affordable housing for low- and moderate-income households for many years.
People are also reading…
Diocesan Housing Services has 700 apartments at eight locations in South Jersey, currently the home to about 1,000 people.
One isn’t far from the proposed project with Atlantic County — the Village at St. Peter’s in downtown Pleasantville, a 76-unit affordable senior apartment building that opened in 2013.
Two are in Cape May County. Victorian Towers is a six-story 204-unit affordable senior apartment building just off the pedestrian mall in Cape May. Haven House at St. John of God is a 75-unit affordable senior apartment building in North Cape May.
Atlantic County and the Diocese of Camden are considering an agreement to build 70 units of senior housing on Dolphin Avenue adjacent to the county’s Meadowview Nursing Home.
One point in favor of the location is that residents would be able to access therapy services at the nursing home. They also would be near additional services offered by the Atlantic County Division of Public Health, the county’s Intergenerational Services and its Office on Aging, all of which are on the other side of the nursing home.
The project is in its early pre-agreement phase, so details may change if it proceeds. A county spokesman said housing vouchers could be used to pay about 70% of the cost of rent for low-income residents. The deal would generate revenue for the county, and the tax-exempt diocese has said it would make voluntary payments in lieu of taxes to Northfield, whose officials would also need to approve the project.
These are multiple, significant advantages for creating a well-run Diocesan Housing Services apartment complex at this location.
When the possibility was discussed recently at the county Board of Commissioners, a resident on Dolphin Avenue said she didn’t want anything else on her street and claimed traffic was already a “nightmare” clogging her street. As it happens, we have crossed Dolphin Avenue at this exact location twice a day for several years while bike commuting to work, and not once have we been delayed or seen the avenue clogged. We’re confident that a routine traffic study would show this through street can easily accommodate use by the apartment building.
We understand that those living near the site might have come to view the county’s large empty field as pleasant open space that should be preserved, but it isn’t. No such designation has been proposed or adopted — it’s just part of a large swath of county property to be used for the benefit of all county residents.
If the county and the diocese agree on the plan, and it meets the many state and local requirements, apartments for seniors on Dolphin Avenue should proceed. We don’t see reasons for opposing such a beneficial and benign project. | https://pressofatlanticcity.com/opinion/editorial/atlantic-county-camden-diocese-senior-housing-in-northfield-would-be-beneficial/article_d3332c76-1b4c-11ed-ac31-ff986a09fb80.html | 2022-08-17T05:45:49Z | https://pressofatlanticcity.com/opinion/editorial/atlantic-county-camden-diocese-senior-housing-in-northfield-would-be-beneficial/article_d3332c76-1b4c-11ed-ac31-ff986a09fb80.html | true |
CINCINNATI — Rhys Hoskins homered twice and drove in five runs as the Philadelphia Phillies posted the 10,000th win in franchise history, beating the Cincinnati Reds 11-4 Tuesday night.
Philadelphia became the last of the original eight National League franchises to reach the mark. At 10,000-11,163, the Phillies are the only team among them with a losing record.
The New York Yankees are the lone American League team to top the five-figure win total.
"It was a great offfensive night. Home runs come in bunches. It has been too long for me," Hoskins said.
"Ten-thousandth win for the Phils. I'll take a part of history. That's a lot of wins. I know we have a lot of losses, too. I think I was a freshman in high school in 2007 when the Phils lost their 10,000th."
Nick Castellanos homered and doubled twice and scored three times. He has homered five times in his last six games.

Darick Hall and Garrett Stubbs also homered for the Phillies, who hold the second spot in the wild-card race. Kyle Gibson (8-5) struck out 11 in six innings in his third straight solid outing.
Hoskins three-run shot drive in the fourth put the Phillies ahead 5-3. He added his 26th home run with a runner on in the eighth.
TJ Zeuch (0-2), born and raised in nearby Mason, Ohio, allowed 11 hits, three of them homers, and six runs in four-plus innings. Cincinnati has lost six of seven.
"The home runs got him," manager David Bell said. "Other than that, on a positive side, he got a lot of groundballs. When he's good and when he's going to be good and keep getting better, he's going to get a lot of groundballs."
"All the guys we have here are here for a reason. They earned the opportunity," he said. "We're with them all the way. We'll keep finding ways to get better."
Gibson faced the Reds for the first time in his 10-year career. He gave up three runs on six hits with no walks.
"I feel pretty good. I had a couple of rough starts in the middle of the season," said Gibson, who is from Greenfield, Indiana, less than a two-hour drive from Cincinnati.
"When the team puts up two runs you want to put up a zero. I'm my own worst critic. Everybody knows about Great American Ball Park. A lot have guys have benefitted from it. That's what makes baseball great. Not every field plays the same. Every now and then you have to make better pitches. It was fun playing in front of familty and friends," he said.
Hall and Castllanos hit back-to-back home runs in the third. It was the ninth for Hall and the 11th for Castellanos.
Jake Fraley and Jonathan India homered for the Reds.
Center fielder Brandon Marsh was injured trying to catch India's homer and limped off the field. Nick Maton, listed as an infielder, replaced Marsh with the only other outfielder on the roster, Kyle Schwarber out with a strained right calf. He is expected to return on Friday.
"It was one of those things where you're going for the ball. You just have to sacrifice the body a little bit," Marsh said. "I came down a little weird. I was pretty scared at first but I'm feeling better. We're going to let the team docs get a look and re-evaluate tomorrow. It was in the second row. I had a couple more feet to go."
The Phillies sent Marsh for an MRI.
"The doctor here thought it was a bone bruise. We're not bringing in another player. We're going to be status quo. It doesn't change anything for Schwarber unless he comes in tomorrow and tells me he's not feeling anything."
Maton could get time in the outfield.
Stubbs hit a three-run homer off Reds reliever Reiver Sanmartin in the ninth. It was challenged for fan interference but the call was confirmed.
Sanmartin could not finish the ninth. Infielder Alejo Lopez made his first career mound appearance and got the final two outs, getting Hoskins to hit into a force play. Lopez pitched one inning at Single-A Dayton.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Phillies manager Rob Thompson celebrated his 59th birthday, which matches his uniform number.
TRAINER'S ROOM
Phillies: OF Bryce Harper (broken thumb) will resume batting practice before a rehab assignment around Aug. 24. ... RHP Corey Knebel's MRI revealed a lat strain. The team is following up with more testing to make sure there is no other damage.

2022 FFN Preseason Tour: Highland
HIGHLAND, Ark. (KAIT) - Highland finished with two wins in 2021, but held the lead at one point in half of their games played.
Clay Wiggins’ crew is a young one, with just eight seniors on the team.
“This time last year, we only had about 18 guys out, as you can see right now, we’ve got 38 guys out so that just means we’ve got a lot more competition for positions on the field,” Wiggins said. “We’ve got a lot more guys to work both offensively and defensively at all positions. We’re still going to be a little bit young, but have got a bunch of eager guys that want to play football.”
Wiggins hopes to snap the team’s nine-game conference losing skid this year.
“Keep practicing like we are, just keep working hard, keep competing over every ball,” senior wide receiver Caden Spurlock said when asked what this team needs to do to get over the hump. “Just got to want it.”
“It’s a really good group this year,” senior offensive lineman Koby Phillips said. “It’s been a while since we’ve really had a good group, but I think we’re gonna be pretty good this year. Looking to make it to the playoffs too, hopefully get a championship too.”

Exhibition shows Bristol Cathedral's links to slave trade
- Published
An exhibition is opening at Bristol Cathedral to explore the church's links to the transatlantic slave trade.
All God's Children invites us to reflect on how 200 of those commemorated in the cathedral were connected to Africans' enslavement.
Signs depicting the church's connections with slavery will be placed beside memorials and grave-markers.
Outside on College Green will be portraits of those affected by the legacy of slavery and racism.
The exhibition asks what Christianity can do to counter racism.
'Truth telling'
The Very Revd Dr Mandy Ford, Dean of Bristol said: "For too long, the church has ignored, hidden or denied the experience of God's captured, trafficked and enslaved children.
"Before we can work together for a better future, we need to tell the truth about the past, and this exhibition is the beginning of that truth telling at Bristol Cathedral."
Dr Ford expressed how painful it was for "those who suffer the intergenerational trauma of slavery and racism".
The exhibition is on display from 23 August to 21 October, and the external one on College Green runs from 24 August until 29 September.
It joins a separate tribute to the history of John Isaac Daniel - one of 4,424 people enslaved in a plantation in 1834.

Oil prices turn more volatile as investors exit the market
By Stephanie Kelly and Noah Browning
NEW YORK/LONDON, Aug 17 (Reuters) - Traders and fund managers have left crude oil markets in recent months, dropping activity to a seven-year low amid the worst global energy crisis in decades as investors become unwilling to deal with persistently high volatility.
The exodus of participants, especially hedge funds and speculators, has made daily price swings far greater than in previous years, making it harder for companies to hedge against physical purchases of oil. The volatility has harmed companies that need energy market stability for their operations, which includes oil-and-gas companies, but also manufacturing and food-and-beverage industries.
Brent crude futures are swinging sharply on a daily basis. Between Russia's invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24 through Aug. 15, the daily range between Brent's session highs and lows averaged $5.64. For the same time period last year, the average was $1.99, a Reuters analysis of Refinitiv Eikon data showed.
The high volatility is delaying increased capital expenditures that would help supply keep pace with energy demand, said Arjun Murti, a veteran energy analyst. When volatility is high, oil companies have less confidence in price forecasts, he said.
"There will be concern that prices could fall back to lower levels that wouldn't justify new capex," Murti told Reuters.
Many different types of investors, including banks, funds and producers, have exited the market, participants said, as the market on some days surges on threats to supply, while on other days the cloudy economic outlook causes equally wild selloffs.
Overall open interest in the futures market has fallen nearly 20% since the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, according to data from JP Morgan. Open interest in Brent crude futures at the start of August sat at 1.802 million contracts, the lowest since July 2015, according to Refinitiv Eikon data.
The "story is primarily driven by speculators, trend-followers and macro-focused funds looking for a hedge against an economic slowdown that is being priced in by the market," Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank in Copenhagen, told Reuters.
The volatility has had a severe impact on businesses in 2022, a July survey from Schneider Electric showed. Twenty-four of 100 companies in industries including energy, manufacturing and construction firms said it has severely affected their business, the survey showed.
Forty-three percent of companies said energy budgets are the biggest operational area affected by supply-chain disruptions, which have stemmed recently from the coronavirus pandemic and geopolitics.
"The huge increase in energy prices has created an imbalance in procurement, budgeting, and production that we are finding increasingly difficult to maintain," said a survey respondent in the manufacturing and industry sector.
Seventeen percent of the companies said they were either not at all confident or just slightly confident in their organization's ability to hedge against future volatility.
PRICE SWINGS
Because of declining market participation, oil prices are moving around $25 per barrel for every 1 million barrel-per-day variation in supply or demand, JP Morgan said. That is nearly double the $15 move before Russia's invasion, it added. This creates a cycle in which the wild swings make investors less inclined to trade the markets.
"The amount of open interest generally starts to fall when there's a lot of uncertainty and direction," said Tony Scott, vice president of Energy Analysis at FactSet. "You wait to pick your spots as the fundamentals become clearer on where things are going."
The consolidation could also signal that hedge funds that invested in the market a year ago are simply taking profits, he added.

Fargo Public School’s letter to recruit Florida teachers circulates on social media
FARGO, N.D. (Valley News Live) - A letter from Fargo Public Schools sent to Florida teachers is gaining national attention.
FPS sent the letter back in April, in reference to the Parental Rights Bill, which some critics have called the “Don’t Say Gay” bill.
“To show support for educators in Florida that may not feel supported by the legislation that was passed,” said Dr. Rupak Gandhi.
The newly enacted law prohibits lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity for kids in kindergarten through 3rd grade in Florida schools.
Gandhi, one of the four authors of the letter, says the letter could help attract teachers to the state, who are bothered by the Sunshine state’s new law
“We are always recruiting. We just wanted to share that we are working towards becoming a welcoming environment,” he said.
The letter begins with what FPS says is an important statement, “we are way ok with saying gay, or straight, or LGBTQ+.
Commissioner John Strand and North Dakota U.S. House Representative Joshua Boschee are also authors of the letter.
In response to the legislation, Strand said “I’m not going to tell teachers how to teach. They know best.”
Boschee, a member of the LGBTQ+ community, told Valley News Live, “I am not alone when I say that it was in fact an educator who was one of the first adults who supported us to be who we are.”
Not everyone is a fan of the letter.
Republican State House candidate Ethan Harsell tweeted FPS’s letter, which also received criticism from Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s office.
Desantis’s Rapid Response Director Christina Pushaw tweeted “Lol bye” in response to the letter.
She also added in a comment “Fargo can have them.”
Dr. Gandhi says the district will continue to stand by its decision to send the letter.
“We are proud of the letter and we have nothing to hide behind.”

SYDNEY (AP) — Scott Morrison said Wednesday that giving himself extra powers when he was Australia’s prime minister was necessary during the coronavirus crisis, as criticism rose the moves were deceptive and undemocratic.
Current Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is seeking an opinion from the solicitor-general on the legality of some of Morrison’s moves.
Many of Morrison’s own colleagues were blindsided by his decision to secretly appoint himself to five ministerial roles, which have only been revealed in recent days. Some have called for him to resign from Parliament, where he is now an opposition lawmaker after losing the general election to Albanese earlier this year.
But Morrison told reporters in Sydney that while he apologized for causing offense to his colleagues, he stood by his actions.
The expectation early in the COVID-19 crisis was that as prime minister, he was responsible for everything — “every drop of rain, every strain of the virus, everything that occurred over that period of time,” Morrison said. “I believed it was necessary to have authority, to have what were effectively emergency powers, to exercise in extreme situations that would be unforeseen, that would enable me to act in the national interests.”
He said he'd rather be criticized for overstepping the mark than for not taking action. Asked why he didn't let his own Cabinet colleagues know about the appointments, let alone the broader public, Morrison said his moves could have been misunderstood.
“I was concerned that these issues could have been misconstrued and misunderstood, and undermined the confidence of ministers in the performance of their duties at that time, and I did not consider that to be in the country’s interest,” Morrison said.
Albanese on Tuesday revealed that between March 2020 and May 2021, Morrison was appointed minister of health, finance, home affairs, treasury and industry — moves which appeared to have given him equal powers to the ministers already appointed to those positions. News Corp. media had revealed some of the appointments over the weekend.
“How about an apology to the Australian people?” Albanese said after Morrison spoke. “The Australian people went to an election not knowing that any of this had occurred, not knowing that there was a shadow government operating in darkness.”
Albanese told reporters in Brisbane that he found it incomprehensible that the appointments weren't publicly announced at the time. He alluded to the secrecy in the movie “Fight Club.”
“The first rule of power-grab club is don’t talk about power-grab club, and Scott Morrison broke that rule today," Albanese said. "Scott Morrison was evasive, he was defensive, he was passive-aggressive and of course, he was self-serving. So at least he was true to himself today."
Morrison used his additional powers on at least one occasion, to overturn a decision by former minister Keith Pitt to approve a contentious gas project off the New South Wales coast.
Pitt said in a statement he was unaware Morrison had joint oversight over his ministerial portfolio and that he stands by the decisions he made at the time.
At the time, Morrison said he was vetoing the project in his capacity as prime minister, and did not mention that he had joint oversight over the portfolio.
Morrison on Wednesday said there were different circumstances in that particular case than with his pandemic-related portfolios, and he stood by his decision which he believed was in the national interest.
Morrison’s appointments were authorized by Governor-General David Hurley, who said he followed processes consistent with the constitution by signing an "administrative instrument on the advice of the prime minister” — which was Morrison — to give Morrison the extra powers.
Karen Andrews, who served as home affairs minister under Morrison, said Morrison never told her that he was also being appointed to the portfolio. She said Morrison should resign.
“The Australian people have been let down, they have been betrayed,” she said. “For a former prime minister to have behaved in that manner, to secretly be sworn into other portfolios, undermines the Westminster system, it’s absolutely unacceptable.” | https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Former-Australia-PM-says-secret-powers-were-17378587.php | 2022-08-17T06:00:05Z | https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Former-Australia-PM-says-secret-powers-were-17378587.php | true |
SHANGHAI, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- NIO Capital celebrated its "Five and Beyond" fifth anniversary in Suzhou on August 5.
At the gathering, William Li, Ian Zhu and Nathan Yu, the firm's managing partners, shared their experience, insights, and NIO Capital's achievements over the past five years. Carl Guan, Li Yao, and Adair Lv, the investment firm's managing directors, released NIO Capital 2022 Investment Outlook. This white paper focuses on investment opportunities in Automobiles and Logistics, Energy and Deep Technologies sectors in the next five to 10 years. Representatives from NIO Capital's portfolio companies shared ideas on the industries they are involved in.
William Li, founder, chairman and CEO of NIO, and managing partner of NIO Capital, delivered the opening speech. As an investor and entrepreneur, Li has been involved in the automotive industry for many years. He gave his take on the industry and talked about starting a business from his own experience.
Li said the intelligent electric vehicle (EV) sector had entered a "speed-up" stage, behind which the core driving force is technological advancement. The automotive industry has reached the commanding height of scientific and technological innovations again, and it will create more opportunities for the Chinese market. He added that the sector is full of possibilities and will open up more chances for entrepreneurs. He also said while staying prudent, optimistic, and aggressive, NIO Capital will seize the opportunities with real actions rather than be caught in anxiety.
As LPs vary, their demands focus not only on financial returns but also on multi-dimensional values. Since its inception, NIO Capital has been expanding its investment in an industry-oriented way. Meanwhile, the company offers its portfolio companies multi-dimensional support, with the vision "Invest in Innovations that Sustain and Advance Humankind".
Nathan Yu, managing partner of NIO Capital, spoke on the changes in the automotive industry over the past five years. He said the sector is undergoing profound changes unseen in a century. Both individuals and companies need to embrace changes and transformation.
The anniversary also witnessed the release of NIO Capital 2022 Investment Outlook, a white paper summarizing and reflecting on the company's focus industries and comprehensively reviewing its development process.
The paper covers three topics, namely energy, automobiles and logistics, and deep technologies. These topics are subdivided into 11 parts, including the production of clean energy, energy storage, the application of lithium batteries, electric vehicles, autonomous driving, intelligent cockpits, automotive semiconductors, internationalization, etc.
Later in the day, Professor Li Daokui, director of the Academic Center for Chinese Economic Practice and Thinking (ACCEPT) at Tsinghua University, delivered a keynote speech on China's economy over the next five years. Professor Li said the competition in the technology sector, especially green and low-carbon technologies, will become fiercer in the next five years. In addition, he analyzed the key trends influencing economic development and shared his predictions and expectations, providing a reference for investors and entrepreneurs to plan their development strategies.
Li Yao, NIO Capital's managing director, hosted the automotive and logistics roundtable discussion themed on the implementation and development of autonomous driving. He was joined by Bao Junwei, CEO and co-founder of global supplier of image-grade LiDAR Innovusion; Cao Xudong, CEO and founder of autonomous driving technology company Momenta; Julian Ma, founder and CEO of autonomous trucking startup Inceptio Technology; Joe Xia, CEO of intelligent automobile company JiDU; and Yan Jun, founder and chairman of computer vision and intelligent sensing technology developer IICT. The guests shared their ideas about the development trend and commercialization of autonomous driving. They said the autonomous driving sector has not entered "the second half" of its development stage and that the sector will create companies with greater potential than those in the mobile internet industry. In the future, data, vehicle-road network coordination, and technologies that can help a company develop an ecology in its specific sector will be some of the core competencies of a company.
NIO Capital's managing director Adair Lv hosted the roundtable discussion on how the automobile industry is shaping the future semiconductor industry. He was joined by Hank Sun, CEO of chip developer CIX Technology; Sunny Siu, chairman and CEO of DPU developer Jaguar Microsystems; Michael Xu, founder and CEO of autonomous driving high-performance chip developer Huixi Technology; Yang Jian, general manager of semiconductor SiC (Silicon Carbide) wafer developer TankeBlue; Zhang Linglan, COO and co-founder of semiconductor startup Biren Technology; and YL Zhou, vice president of sales of Nexchip Semiconductor Corporation, a semiconductor foundry specializing in integrated circuit production. The guests said the intelligent EV sector will be an important incremental market for the global semiconductor industry. China's huge application ecosystem provides a broad development space for the semiconductor sector. Recent years have seen the consistent development of semiconductor technologies, guided by relevant policies and driven by the development of intelligent automobiles.
Carl Guan, managing director of NIO Capital, hosted the energy roundtable discussion focusing on changes in the global energy mix and chances for China's new energy industry. He was joined by Bai Houshan, chairman of lithium battery cathode materials manufacturer Ronbay Technology; He Zhonglin, chairman of chip and secret key technology developer RT-HITECH; Alfred Wang, CEO of energy storage solution and service provider AlphaESS; and Yu Huigen, general manager of Welion New Energy, hybrid solid-liquid electrolyte lithium-ion batteries and all-solid-state lithium batteries developer and producer. The guests said each industrial chain will have its leading enterprises, and all companies have the potential to become the leading ones. They added that as the technology transformation accelerates, companies need to invest more in R&D, emphasizing that only when the quality of R&D and products are ensured, can a company stand out in the fierce competition.
NIO Capital over the past five years
NIO Capital aims to be a high-quality investment firm in the new era of equity investment, said Ian Zhu.
In 2017, NIO Capital raised its first RMB fund. At that time, the company implemented an industry-oriented plan, selecting high-quality companies in the energy, automobile, and deep technology sectors. It also invested in some leading companies and participated in their growth process. Meanwhile, NIO Capital learned that LPs have multi-dimensional demands.
In 2018, the company raised the first US dollar fund, NIO Capital Eve ONE LP, and used the capital for some early-stage projects. When applying capital from this fund to invest, NIO Capital has held up to its independent and market-driven principle. The company was recognized by leading western LPs for its capability to manage funds under its professional decision-making and governance systems.
The investments paid off. After years of accumulation, NIO Capital raised its second US dollar fund, NIO Capital Eve ONE Fund II LP, in 2021. The fund was oversubscribed since the first US dollar fund had performed well.
In 2022, the company completed the initial closing of its second RMB fund. NIO Capital will continue to make investment plans with its professional decision-making and management.
For an investment firm, teams are its major asset. NIO Capital established its core teams in 2016 and began to invest in 2017. The teams are rather stable. Members of the company's middle- to top-level management teams have worked together for an average of 4.8 years. 35% of the investment and post-investment team members have expertise in the energy, automobile, and cutting-edge technology sectors and 65% have experience in the investment sector. All these professionals are well organized and capable of achieving higher work efficiency.
The major task for an investment firm is to introduce suitable resources to innovation projects or companies. NIO Capital aims to empower its partners with more than just funds. So far, the firm has invested in some leading companies in the energy, automobile, and deep technology sectors. It has also established a complete and sustainable ecosystem to guide and assist these companies to build industrial linkage, constantly promoting the development of companies and accelerating industrial transformation.
NIO Capital is grateful for the trust of its investors, portfolio companies, and partners and will continue to work with them for a sustainable future.

Philippines in talks to buy U.S. helicopters after dropping Russia deal
MANILA, Aug 15 (Reuters) - The Philippines is looking to buy heavy-lift Chinook helicopters from the United States, after scrapping a deal with Russia worth 12.7 billion pesos ($227.35 million) in order to avoid sanctions, Manila's ambassador to Washington said on Monday.
In June, days before President Rodrigo Duterte ended his six-year term, the Philippines scrapped a deal to buy 16 Mi-17 Russian military transport helicopters because of fears of U.S. sanctions linked to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
"This cancellation of this contract is precipitated mainly by the war in Ukraine. While there are sanctions expected to come our way, from the United States and western countries, obviously it is not in our interest to continue and pursue this contract," ambassador Jose Manuel Romualdez told journalists in a virtual forum.
Moscow says it is conducting a "special military operation" in Ukraine.
Romualdez said the Chinooks would replace existing hardware used for the movement of troops and in disaster preparedness in the Southeast Asian country.
The United States is willing to strike a deal for the amount the Philippines was set to spend on the Russian helicopters, Romualdez said, adding the deal with Washington will likely include maintenance, service and parts.
The Philippines is pursuing discussions with Russia to recover its $38 million down payment for the helicopters, the delivery of which was supposed to start in November next year, or 24 months after the contract was signed.
The Philippines is at the tail-end of a five-year, 300 billion-pesos modernisation of its outdated military hardware that includes warships from World War Two and helicopters used by the United States in the Vietnam War.
Aside from military deals, the Philippines, under new President Ferdinand Marcos Jr, also wants increased economic exchanges with the United States including in fields of manufacturing, digital infrastructure and clean energy, including modular nuclear power, Romualdez said.

Unless the Wyoming polls are terribly wrong (Dewey defeats Truman), word will have come late Tuesday night that Liz Cheney has lost the Republican congressional primary in that state. As is the case with some here in New Hampshire, there are folks in Wyoming whose misplaced loyalty to Donald Trump knows no bounds and brooks no criticism of him — facts be damned.
Some Republican politicians still embrace Trump. Others try to slide by the Trump factor by ignoring it. Mike Pence, for example, is due in New Hampshire today and will no doubt repeat, ad nauseam, that he is about the future, not the past. As much as we admire Pence for his courage in defying Trump during the Jan. 6 riot, he doesn’t help his presidential case with such mealy-mouthed mantras.
Liz Cheney was talking about two Wyoming politicians but she could have been referencing Pence and many other pols when she spoke of those hoping to avoid Trump’s wrath.
“They’ve got to make their own choices and live with the choices that they make. There are too many people who think that somebody else will fix the problem, that we can stay on the sidelines and Trump will fade.”
U.S. Rep. Cheney didn’t stay on the sidelines. She chose principle and country over politics and comfort. While it’s too bad that this means losing her current seat, it may set her on a path that could inspire presidential voters who are watching both major parties with increasing alarm.
With all the relentlessly depressing news coming from Washington, the weather, and the corner store this summer, the Boston Red Sox were counted on even more than usual for relief from our woes.
It is good to see at least a few prominent Democrats speaking out against their party’s current interfering in Republican primary races on behalf of the very candidates they deplore — the disciples of Donald Trump and his phony 2020 election steal strategy. The tactic is worthy of Trump himself.
The following statement was signed by 35 prominent Democrats who have previously held congressional or gubernatorial offices. Former U.S. Rep. Dick Swett of New Hampshire is among them.
Maggie Hassan and other New Hampshire Democrats cite New Hampshire presidential primary law as if they were invoking a magic spell. The law, they chant, says New Hampshire goes first.
The need for more housing options in Manchester is clear, and turning the underused Pearl Street parking lot into a four-to-six-story complex makes sense. But we are surprised that the Board of Mayor and Aldermen were so quick to approve in the same plan the transformation of the Hartnett lo…
Now that things have settled down a bit at the Gunstock ski and recreation area, the newly constituted commission might want to put a stop to its ski area making political donations.
Judging from an appearance with other congressional candidates at a New Hampshire Journal forum this week, Robert Burns doesn’t seem to understand or care that one can endorse Trump administration policies without playing the bully as Donald Trump does. | https://www.unionleader.com/opinion/editorials/cheney-wins-losers-back-trump/article_55479057-ada1-55a8-b842-e901130619e6.html | 2022-08-17T06:02:19Z | https://www.unionleader.com/opinion/editorials/cheney-wins-losers-back-trump/article_55479057-ada1-55a8-b842-e901130619e6.html | false |
Milton Keynes Council foster carer felt 'emotionally bullied'
- Published
A council foster carer who has felt "emotionally bullied" said she had no choice but to leave the service.
Claire O'Sullivan fostered with Milton Keynes Council on and off since 2002 and contacted the BBC after another carer claimed she was mistreated.
Ms O'Sullivan said it seemed "the more you highlight... issues the more you could be ostracised from the service".
Milton Keynes Council said it took any reported concerns "very seriously" and was working to improve the service.
An inspection of the authority's children's services by Ofsted in October and November found "shortfalls" in the fostering service had "existed for too long without effective action being taken".
This year, the Local Government Ombudsman has upheld two complaints from foster carers against the council.
One of those carers told the BBC she was referred inappropriately to safeguarding and "intimidated" in meetings.
Ms O'Sullivan, who has looked after more than 50 children, contacted the BBC after the report and said she was de-registering as a foster carer.
"We felt like we had no choice," said the 48-year-old from Bletchley.
"We didn't want to give up. We just felt like we weren't able to successfully carry out our role for the best of the child, for the good of the child and work as a collaborative team surrounding the child."
She said she "experienced being bullied" into carrying out contact visits - which can be with the child's parents or siblings - "when there should have been a supervising contact worker there to carry out that supervision".
"I was told to leave my son, who was seven at the time, at a football tournament by himself to go and carry out contact with the group of children that I had at the time with the parent because the supervising contact worker had signed in sick.
"When you're told to leave your child by themselves to go and carry out this contact that's a bit ridiculous and it doesn't make you feel valued, it doesn't make you feel part of a team."
'Door always open'
Ms O'Sullivan said she wanted the council to "accept and recognise that there is a problem" and work with foster carers and children's social work team "together as a collaborative system for the good of the child".
A council spokesman said: "We're disappointed that these carers feel let down.
"We're extremely proud of our foster carers, they are dedicated to providing care and a safe home for children and young people. We take any concerns reported to us very seriously.
"We want our fostering service to be recognised as outstanding and are working hard to reach that standard.
"Since our last Ofsted inspection we've recruited additional experienced social workers to support our carers and revised our training and mentoring programme, as well as introducing a 24/7 helpline for carers.
"Our door is always open to solve any issues."

Scientists and students embarking on a census of Georgia lake sturgeon have found three females with mature eggs — an indication the armored “living fossils” may be reproducing in that state for the first time in a half-century.
"It’s exciting because it’s confirmation that they are becoming mature and trying to spawn,” Martin J. Hamel, an associate professor at the University of Georgia Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources, said in a recent news release.
Fossils indicate that the spade-nosed fish with a bottom-mounted vacuum hose instead of jaws has existed for more than 136 million years, according to scientists.
One of nine sturgeon species and subpecies found in the U.S., lake sturgeon live in 18 states and five Canadian provinces in the St. Lawrence, Hudson Bay, Great Lakes and Mississippi River watersheds, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Pollution, habitat destruction and harvesting for flesh and caviar have so diminished their numbers that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is considering federal protection for the species.
Sturgeons' bone-plated bodies did so much damage to fishing nets that commercial fishers hauled large numbers out in the 1800s and left them on river and lake banks, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources recounts on its website.
Dams, which keep the big fish from migrating from lakes to the rivers where they spawn, also reduced their numbers. Now lake sturgeon are at less than 1% of historic levels.
State protections, such as fishing limits, and stocking programs, some run by Native American tribes, have helped sturgeon.
By the 1970s, lake sturgeon had been wiped out of northwest Georgia's Coosa River basin — the only place where they were found in Georgia.
The state Department of Natural Resources began reintroducing lake sturgeon 20 years ago, after the Clean Water Act cleaned up the river, Hamel said.
Females take 20 to 25 years to mature and produce the black, glistening eggs that people love to eat, according to Michigan Sea Grant. So until such eggs turned up this year in females being implanted with radio telemetry tags to track their movement, nobody knew if Georgia's sturgeon were surviving long enough to reproduce.
“Because lake sturgeon take a long time to mature and then reproduce intermittently — every two to three years — we really need a robust population of varying size and age classes,” Hamel said.
The current population assessment is the largest since Georgia first collected eggs from fish in Wisconsin, raised them in a hatchery and released them into the Coosa in 2002. State natural resources staff, working with their Wisconsin counterparts, have done so nearly every year since.
“It’s a big investment because you don’t even know if the stocked fish are going to survive, let alone grow up and reproduce,” Hamel said.
About 330,000 fish, most about 6 inches (15 centimeters) long, have been released since 2002, Hamel said in an email to The Associated Press.
“While that seems like a lot of sturgeon, the survival rate of fish that are released at that size is likely between 1-10%,” he wrote.
The students are catching as many lake sturgeon as they can to estimate population size, survival and growth rates. The project started in the spring. It will run through this summer and next spring and summer, finishing in winter 2023, Hamel wrote.
Radio telemetry tags will give a better picture of where in the river basin sturgeon tend to live.
“We have implanted 28 fish with telemetry tags thus far, and plan to implant 12 more in the coming months,” Hamel wrote.
Scientists have implanted tiny PIT tags, like the ones used to identify pets, in hundreds of fish over the past two decades. The tags let researchers learn when and where scientists caught the fish previously.
Hamel said about 15% to 20% of the fish being caught have PIT tags, and one is going into every untagged fish.
Five adults and five juveniles will also get a tag that records depth and temperature every 10 seconds, he said.
Information from the first three years of restocking suggested that juveniles were surviving.
“There’s been a lot of questions about long-term survival, growth rates, and when these fish would become sexually mature — and we’re on the verge of determining if these fish are going to successfully reproduce,” Hamel said.
The oldest lake sturgeon on record was 152 years old, according to the Fish and Wildlife Service. The agency says the fish can reach up to 9 feet (2.7 meters) long and 310 pounds (140 kilograms).
The largest caught so far by the Georgia group was 52 inches (1.3 meters) long and weighed 24 pounds (11 kilograms).
“This is the largest fish that anyone has documented on the Coosa River,” Hamel wrote.

- Gold price remains firmer after confirming a bullish chart pattern.
- Softer US dollar, yields also underpin XAU/USD rebound from a one-week low.
- US Retail Sales, headlines concerning China will also be important for fresh impulse.
Gold price consolidates weekly losses around $1,778 amid broad US dollar weakness heading into Wednesday’s European session. In doing so, the XAU/USD traders also portray the cautious mood of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting minutes.
That said, the US Dollar Index (DXY) refreshed its three-week high before reversing from 106.94, down 0.10% near the intraday low of 106.35 at the latest. The DXY losses could be linked to the market’s preparations for today’s US Retail Sales for July, expected 0.1% versus 1.0% prior, as well as the Fed minutes. It’s worth noting that the recent weakness in the US data challenges the hawkish hopes from the Fed, which in turn exert downside pressure on the US dollar and favor gold buyers.
Elsewhere, China’s Premier Li Keqiang recently crossed wires, via the Communist Party’s flagship newspaper People’s Daily, while urging local officials from six key provinces that account for about 40% of the country’s economy to bolster pro-growth measures. On Wednesday, President Xi Jinping and state planner National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) showed readiness for more measures to combat the recession fears.
Given the dragon nation’s status of being the world’s biggest commodity user, any negatives for Beijing weigh on the gold prices. However, the latest rebound in XAU/USD could well be linked to the thinking that the hopes of more stimulus could push for more metal demand from China.
While portraying the sentiment, US 10-year Treasury yields fade the previous day’s rebound while S&P 500 Futures retreat from a four-month high.
Looking forward, US data and Fed Minutes could direct XAU/USD moves while the headlines concerning China and the recession will also be important for clear directions.
Technical analysis
A clear upside break of the weekly resistance line confirms the short-term falling wedge bullish chart pattern, which in turn directs gold price towards Friday’s peak of $1,805.
However, the 200-HMA hurdle near $1,787 could challenge the XAU/USD bulls. Also acting as an upward resistance is the monthly peak surrounding $1,808.
Alternatively, the resistance-turned-support near $1,777 precedes the stated wedge’s support, close to $1,770 by the press time, to restrict the short-term XAU/USD downside.
Following that, the $1,765 and the monthly low of $1,754 will gain the gold sellers’ attention.

Nearly six months after authorities found her dead outside the entrance of a popular park in Los Angeles, Lindsey Pearlman's cause of death has been revealed.
According to multiple reports, the Empire and General Hospital actress’ death was ruled a suicide caused by sodium nitrite toxicity. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner autopsy also revealed that “the presence of non-toxic levels of lorazepam, metoclopramide, and codeine” were found in her system.
Pearlman, who also appeared in Selena: The Series, was found dead on Feb. 18 in her car near the entrance to the celeb-favorite Runyon Canyon Park. On that day, the Los Angeles Police Department released a statement confirming Pearlman’s death, days after her family reported her missing.
“Today around 8:30 a.m., Hollywood Area officers responded to a radio call for a death investigation at Franklin Avenue and North Sierra Bonita Avenue,” the statement read. “The L.A. County Coroner’s Office has since confirmed the individual to be Lindsey Erin Pearlman.”
Per a missing persons alert issued by the LAPD, the actress had last been seen on Feb. 13 around noon on the 1600 block of North Mariposa Avenue in Hollywood, several miles from where her body was later discovered. Police had said in the alert that she “failed to return home,” and had not been heard from or seen since.
Pearlman also appeared on such shows as Chicago Justice, Sneaky Pete, American Housewife, Vicious, The Purge anthology series and BET+’s The Ms. Pat Show.
She was 43.

Single women should be dating men 10 years OLDER than them says controversial relationship coach who claims he has the 'perfect recipe' for scoring a date
- Australia's self-described 'tough love' relationship coach reveals top tips
- Jake Maddock is known for his traditional style when it comes to relationships
- He says women need to embrace their feminine energy and follow a man's lead
- While men need to step into the masculine and take charge of the relationship
- He has outlined why women should be dating older man in latest thread
Women should be dating men a lot older than they are according to Australia's self-described 'tough love dating coach'.
Jake Maddock believes he has cracked the code when it comes to finding and building a ten out of ten relationship after struggling for years to get it right.
Jake, who is now married, says that from his experience coaching thousands of people, when a woman dates a younger man, it rarely works.
He also notes that there are biological reasons why women should date older men and not the reverse. And no, there doesn't have to be a twenty-year age gap. Five to ten years is about the ideal.
'Men and women mature emotionally at different times. According to experts, men take about ten years longer to become emotionally mature than for a woman,' he told FEMAIL.
Jake Maddock (pictured) believes he has cracked the code when it comes to finding and building a ten out of ten relationship after struggling for years to get it right
'An older man is likely to be less commitment phobic and more decisive about where he wants to take the relationship. He will also have a more mature viewpoint when it comes to solving problems and relationship issues.'
Jake also pointed out that dating an older man will help him step into his 'masculine energy' and be a leader in the relationship, which will only enhance his 'attractiveness'.
'He will have made his mistakes and is unlikely to repeat them. He won't play silly games, he chooses you for better reasons and will appreciate you more,' he added.
Much of the evidence rests in what's working in Hollywood, according to the dating guru.
'George Clooney was clearly very careful about the women he chose to date. He was still a bachelor at age 52 when he met Amal Alamuddin in 2013. He is seventeen years her senior, which didn't faze either of them,' Jake said.
'Jerry Seinfeld married Jessica Sklar in 1999, when he was 45 and she was 28. They are still together. Alec Baldwin began dating Hilaria Thomas in 2011, when he was 53 and she was 27. They are still together. Harrison Ford began dating Calista Flockhart in 2002, when he was 60 and she was 38. They are still together.'

Speaking to FEMAIL previously the popular relationship coach revealed learning how to navigate a relationship efficiently has been the greatest accomplishment of his life.
'There was a good ten-year period in my life that was pure hell because I didn't understand relationships at all,' he said.
'So, I decided to learn about and become a master at them. After years of studying under mentors and reading books and putting information into practice, I achieved a 10/10 relationship,' he added.
Jake believes men struggle in relationships because they 'aren't good at verbalising their wants and needs, or even understanding them'.
'The greatest mistakes people make are not being intimate enough, not communicating effectively, ignoring masculine and feminine energy, not going on enough dates and disrespecting each other,' he said.
These views are backed-up in Jake's Instagram and TikTok videos where he says it is never a woman's job to 'ask a guy out'.
'The guy should plan the date, come up with the idea, he should execute the date and pay for the date. Your job is to sit back and have fun,' he said in one video.
He also suggests women look for red flags in regards to commitment, explaining men will let you know if they are keen for something long-term.
'If I guy says let's go with the flow it says he doesn't know how to date effectively,' he said - adding that it can be a cop out and show he just wants to 'keep sleeping with you'.
'If a guy says I eventually want something with you but he isn't making any progress, keeping you on sidelines then you are a plan B.'
He also coaches people after the first few weeks of dating and says when it comes to moving in with a partner there are rules.
'You can get a new house together or the woman can move in to the woman's house - the man doesn't move into the woman's house,' he said.
'You can get a new house together or the woman can move in to the woman's house - the man doesn't move into the woman's house,' he said
This appears to be so the woman can 'take the man's lead' at home, without having to 'surrender' her own space.
The former soldier and builder was always in 'blokey' industries which he says gives him a unique insight into how men can bury their emotions.
He decided to pursue his love for love after an horrific car accident four years ago.
'It was a pivotal moment. I could have died,' he recalled.
'What followed was a lot of soul-searching and then the decision to go after what would really make my life worthwhile. A few days after I came out of hospital, I decided to go all in and become a relationship coach. I love this business.' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/relationships/article-11118541/Controversial-relationship-coach-Jake-Maddock-says-women-date-older-men.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-17T06:27:00Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/relationships/article-11118541/Controversial-relationship-coach-Jake-Maddock-says-women-date-older-men.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false |
Do you have muscles like a young Schwarzenegger? Do you laugh at those with tiny, ultraportable laptops but still want to take everything with you? Then the Dell XPS 17 (9720) might be the laptop for you.
This 17-inch behemoth offers lots of processing power and has drive space for days but at the cost of weighing more than your own brain. That’s a lot to carry around with you on a daily basis, although your wallet will be somewhat lightened by the price of this beast.
Does the Dell XPS 17 (9720) have what it takes to be considered among the best laptops of 2022? Read on to find out. And if you want to learn more about T3’s testing process, take a look at the how we test page.
DELL XPS 17 (9720) LAPTOP REVIEW: PRICE AND AVAILABILITY
The Dell XPS 17 (9720) is available now in the US, UK and Australia, starting at $1,849/£2,155.41/AU$3,498.99 for the base model. My review unit – with the i7-12700H processor, 32GB of DDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD, Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 GPU and the UHD (3840 x 2400 pixel) display – is priced at $3,049/£2,848.99/AU$6,599.00.
Check out our Dell discount codes to see if you can save on your purchase.
DELL XPS 17 (9720) LAPTOP REVIEW: DESIGN
There is one simple word to describe the Dell XPS 17 (9720): big. At just under 15 inches wide and 10 inches deep, you are going to need a serious bag to carry this chonker of a 17-inch laptop around.
However, it is surprisingly thin. At just 0.8 inches thick, the XPS 17 (9720) won’t be the only thing that fits into your laptop bag. Still, the thin profile doesn’t carry over to the weight: at 5.5 pounds (2.5kg), it’s a hefty bit of kit. Add in another pound for the large 130-Watt USB power adapter, and you’ve got the weight of the world on your shoulders. Well, the weight of a hefty laptop, at least.
Of course, you don’t expect a 17-inch laptop to be light, and the benefit of the size is the large, clear 17-inch display. Dell offers two options here: a Full HD (1920 by 1200 pixel) panel or, for an additional $300, a UHD (3840 x 2400 pixel) touchscreen display. My review unit had the UHD display installed, which is awesome if you are editing or watching 4K video on the go, but it’s probably overkill for most users. Usually, it’s easier to just plug in a 4K monitor.
There is a pretty good selection of ports on the XPS 17. On the left side are two Thunderbolt 4 ports and a Kensington lock socket, while the right edge has two more Thunderbolt 4 ports, an SD card slot, and a headset socket. A plug-in adapter that converts any of the Thunderbolt 4 ports into a USB 3.2 Gen 2 port and an HDMI 2.0 socket are included. The presence of ports on both sides means you can plug the USB power cable into either side – no more cables trailing behind the laptop while you charge.
The keyboard is a large, comfortable model with chiclet-style keys. There is no dedicated number pad, though. Most large laptops use the extra space in the case to add this, but not the XPS 17. The touchpad responds to a gentle touch of the fingertips but also has a satisfying click when you press down. One fingertip gets you a left click, two fingertips or a tap in the bottom right corner gets you a right click.
On either side of the keyboard are the speakers, hidden under grills in the case. These produce loud, clear sound with plenty of bass and decent presence. The distance between the two speakers also means there is good stereo separation and you can tell which direction the sound is coming from, which is important for gaming.
The only major change from last year's XPS 17 is the inclusion of an upgraded webcam, which offers better low-light performance. It is definitely an improvement – the video looked better in average and low lighting, and face login for Windows Hello was more reliable. Another way to log in is the fingerprint reader on the blank key on the top-right of the keyboard.
DELL XPS 17 (9720) LAPTOP REVIEW: PERFORMANCE & FEATURES
The guts of the XPS 17 (9720) have been upgraded to include Intel’s 12th generation of processors. My review unit came with an i7 12700H processor, which includes 14 cores that can run at up to 4.7Ghz. In addition, the memory has been upgraded to DDR5 type. That means that while last year's model could read and write data to memory at four times the speed of the memory clock (DDR4), the new model can do this at five times the speed.
These changes provide a significant boost in speed, with the XPS 17 (9720) achieving a PCMark 10 score of 7076. That’s a 7% increase from the 6583 score that the XPS 17 (9710) had last year. This increase was also borne out in my experience running large Excel spreadsheets and Photoshop filters: both ran noticeably faster.
There is also a decent amount of gaming power on offer from the Nvidia RTX 3060 laptop GPU. I found that the graphically intense game Doom Eternal managed 60 frames per second running at a resolution of 3840 x 1600 pixels, and about 25 fps at the native 3840 x 2400 pixel resolution. Both resolutions provided a smooth and attractive gaming experience on the big screen, but the extra smoothness of the lower resolution was more comfortable to play.
It’s a pity that the combination of the Nvidia 3060 GPU and 6GB of video RAM wasn’t enough to run the Ultra Nightmare mode that makes Doom Eternal a more blood-soaked and gritty experience, though. That was borne out in my tests with the gaming benchmark 3DMark, which recorded a score of 6413 – solid, but nowhere near the stratospheric heights of dedicated gaming laptops.
The UHD screen was nice and bright. I measured it at a maximum of 367 cd/m2, which is bright enough for most uses. It was slightly dim when sitting outside on a sunny day, though. The colors on the display looked good, with well-saturated highlights and deep shadows, but the colors lacked the vivid punch of the OLED display on the XPS 15.
However, the XPS 17 (9720) is a noisy beast when it’s working hard. The heat from the processor and GPU are moved into a large vapor chamber at the rear of the case, which is cooled by air sucked in through the base of the case by two large fans. These make a lot of noise when they are running full speed, with a very noticeable whooshing sound.
The fans only kick in occasionally; run a game on this and your sound effects will have to compete with the constant wooooosh. It isn’t as loud as the hovercraft sound of the Alienware x17 R2, but it’s definitely off-putting when you are trying to focus on chainsawing a cacodemon.
DELL XPS 17 (9720) LAPTOP REVIEW: BATTERY PERFORMANCE
The XPS 17 (9720) has battery life that can be described as acceptable. I found that it was able to play back a video for about nine hours and 15 minutes before the battery ran out of oomph. That’s with the screen set to about 200 cd/m2 brightness, which is around half of the maximum possible.
If you do something that involves a lot of processing, you are going to get significantly less. I was only able to play Doom Eternal for about 50 minutes before the battery was exhausted.
DELL XPS 17 (9720) LAPTOP REVIEW: VERDICT
Look, there is no more polite way to put this: The XPS 17 (9720) is a big, old laptop. That’s both a blessing and a curse. It has excellent performance, a big, bright screen, and plenty of storage space. The downside is that it’s large and heavy: with the large USB power supply, you are going to be lugging around extra pounds in a big, bulky package.
Is it worth the back strain? That depends. There are a few tasks that the XPS 17 would not be able to handle, and that weight might be worth it if you absolutely need everything that you can do on a computer – except to go somewhere with it.
DELL XPS 17 (9720) LAPTOP REVIEW: ALSO CONSIDER
If the XPS 17 seems a bit too much for you, consider the Dell XPS 15, which is nearly as powerful and has the option of a superior OLED screen. You don’t get as much screen real estate, but you still have plenty and you can save a few bucks.
If you really want a big, powerful 17-inch laptop, consider the LG Gram. At just under 3 pounds, it is significantly lighter than the XPS 17 and has a numeric keypad – great for all you number crunchers out there. The performance is still not quite as good as the Dell, though. | https://www.t3.com/au/reviews/dell-xps17-9720 | 2022-08-17T06:31:19Z | https://www.t3.com/au/reviews/dell-xps17-9720 | false |

Trinidad and Tobago Prime Minister Dr. Keith Rowley has called on journalists in the Caribbean to focus, investigate, interpret, educate, and report on the development processes of their countries.
Delivering the feature address at the opening of the 53rd General Assembly of the Barbados-based Caribbean Broadcasting Union (CBU) on Monday night, Rowley, a geologist, who has spent 40 years in electoral politics, said he has been a close observer of the media as he sought to make himself clear on the thorny issue of development journalism.
“I believe that journalists, in what is loosely called the developing world, should see it, in their professional charge, to focus, investigate, interpret, educate, and report on the development processes of their countries.
“They must take ownership and be guardians, and given the Caribbean’s history, they must be understanding and sympathetic to the realistic challenges of the fledgling development processes,” said Prime Minister Rowley, who earlier during his address had traced the history of the media dating back to 1622.
He told the media executives from the English, French, Spanish, and the Dutch-speaking Caribbean that most importantly, journalists must be able to carry out their function in the new environment “without any government guidance or intervention.
“As such they must cultivate, and view their world, with the so-called “Jeweller’s eye,” interpreting, educating, and helping their fellow citizens to locate themselves and their interests in the wider world,” he said, lamenting, however “I’m afraid that is not the journalism I see being widely practiced
“It is the journalism of “publish and be damned,” “Gotcha!” or simple, “He/She said that” — all largely without context or recorded history. A listener, reader or viewer is not helped or educated – in the democratic process, when a journalist has a story, then searches for a counterpoint. Full stop. That is, it!
Dr. Keith Rowley said he wanted to suggest that journalists in the Caribbean, must-see “every story they write, as report within the history and uniqueness of the Caribbean condition.
“What is being argued as free and independent reporting, has to be seen wider than the metropolitan model, or context and carrying that flavor of our “West Indianness.”
“Also, journalists and journalism today must visit and keep re-visiting the volumes, written on the dangers of cultural imperialism, and what it has done, and continues to do to the minds of the West Indian people, and its youth.
“I do have much, much more to say, Chair, on this topic, for example. such as radio stations, whose schedules are predominately American pop, or Gangsta, as opposed to meaningful, conscious West Indian music, art, and drama. “
Prime Minister Rowley said it is in this context that he applauds both UNESCO and the CBU for promoting the discussion on its theme “Media and Information Literacy in Journalism,” as a relevant counter to the clear and present dangers of misinformation and disinformation. | https://www.caribbeannationalweekly.com/news/caribbean-news/trinidad-pm-calls-for-caribbean-journalists-to-understand-their-role-in-development/ | 2022-08-17T06:38:43Z | https://www.caribbeannationalweekly.com/news/caribbean-news/trinidad-pm-calls-for-caribbean-journalists-to-understand-their-role-in-development/ | false |
MEXICO CITY (AP) — A Cuban doctor has been shot to death at a hospital in a rough neighborhood on the outskirts of Mexico City, prosecutors in the State of Mexico confirmed late Monday.
The doctor, whose name was not provided, was killed Friday along with a nurse and another woman at a hospital in the suburb of Ecatepec.
The killing comes after criticism of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s plan to hire hundreds of Cuban doctors to work where Mexican doctors aren’t available, or in areas where they don’t want to work because they are too dangerous or remote.
The Cuban doctor killed in Ecatepec apparently arrived in Mexico some time ago and was not part of the current hiring program. However, his death raised the question of whether some areas of Mexico are too dangerous for the Cuban doctors, as well.
A woman who identified herself as the victim’s sister wrote in her Facebook account that the dead man was Ernesto Oliva Legra.
Prosecutors in the State of Mexico, which borders Mexico City, said two armed men entered the hospital in the early morning hours of Friday and asked for a female patient at the reception desk.
Being unable to locate her, the gunmen then forced the receptionist too open the door to a second-floor medical area, where they opened fire, killing the nurse and another woman, and wounding the doctor.
The doctor died later of his wounds at another hospital. Local media said the other victim was a woman who had been visiting a relative undergoing treatment.
Mexican gangs have been known to enter hospitals at gunpoint to finish off wounded rivals, and Mexico has also seen a wave of violence against medical personnel.
In July, medical school graduates and residents demonstrated across the country to protest the July 15 shooting death of 24-year-old Erick David Andrade in the northern state of Durango as he was treating a patient.
He was days away from finishing the mandatory term of barely paid “social service” required of Mexican med school graduates before starting an internship or residency.
On July 11, an anesthesiologist for a rural government hospital was shot to death at her home in the neighboring state of Chihuahua.
In July 2021, a doctor was killed on a highway near Jerez, Zacatecas, after she apparently failed to stop at a drug gang’s checkpoint. That same month two paramedics were murdered while transporting a patient in the same violence-plagued northern state.
Critics have also filed injunctions against the plan to hire more than 500 specialized doctors from Cuba, over 100 of whom have already arrived and are working in the western states of Nayarit and Colima.
The injunction claims the government has not proved the doctors have the ability or training needed to practice in Mexico, and argued that most of the doctors’ pay might go to the Cuban government, not the medical professionals themselves.
On Tuesday, López Obrador defended the program, saying Mexico didn’t have enough specialists.
“It is absurd, irrational for people to question the fact that Cuban specialist doctors are coming to Mexico in solidarity with us,” the president said. | https://www.koin.com/news/international/cuban-doctor-shot-to-death-at-mexico-hospital/ | 2022-08-17T06:42:16Z | https://www.koin.com/news/international/cuban-doctor-shot-to-death-at-mexico-hospital/ | true |
A former Virginia police officer who testified against a friend and former supervisor he joined at the Capitol in the Jan. 6 insurrection avoided prison time on Tuesday for his role in it.
Former Rocky Mount Police Officer Jacob Fracker pleaded guilty to conspiring with his fellow officer to obstruct Congress from certifying Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory over then-President Donald Trump and was sentenced to one year of probation, with 59 days in home confinement.
Prosecutors did not seek prison time for Fracker, pointing to his substantial cooperation and trial testimony against former Rocky Mount Police Sgt. Thomas Robertson. Fracker’s cooperation came at “great personal cost,” prosecutors said, noting that Robertson was not only Fracker’s colleague but also a father figure he sometimes referred to as “dad.”
Robertson, an Army veteran who was convicted by a jury of attacking the Capitol to obstruct Congress from certifying the Electoral College vote on Jan. 6, 2021, was sentenced last week to more than seven years behind bars. That matches the longest prison sentence so far among hundreds of Capitol riot cases.
Fracker, a Marine Corps veteran, told jurors that Robertson had invited him to Washington, D.C., to see Trump speak. The two off-duty officers traveled to Washington in the morning with a third man and donned gas masks as they approached the Capitol and joined the mob of rioters.
During his sentencing hearing in federal court in Washington, Fracker apologized for his actions.
“Yes, I was there with someone else. Yes, I was there because I trusted him based on lies, but he didn’t tell me how to act that day. I acted on my own, and for that I apologize,” Fracker told the judge.
Prosecutors said they wouldn’t have known that Robertson destroyed two cellphones containing incriminating videos and photos taken on Jan. 6 without Fracker’s cooperation. His testimony also helped prosecutors “establish Robertson’s corrupt intent” to obstruct the congressional proceeding without having to rely on Robertson’s social media postings, prosecutors wrote.
Fracker is the first Jan. 6 defendant to be sentenced for a conspiracy conviction and the first defendant to be sentenced after getting a cooperation deal with prosecutors.
Rocky Mount, a town of roughly 5,000 residents about a four-hour drive southwest of Washington, fired Robertson and Fracker after the deadly riot.
Robertson and Fracker are among roughly 850 people who have been charged with federal crimes for their conduct on Jan. 6. More than 350 of them have pleaded guilty, mostly to misdemeanor offenses, and more than 230 have been sentenced.

BOSTON (AP) — Officers with the Boston Police Department’s harbor patrol unit are used to helping boaters in distress, but last weekend Officer Joe Matthews came to the rescue of a groom in danger of missing his own wedding.
Patrick Mahoney was scheduled to get married on Thompson Island in the middle of Boston Harbor on Saturday, but the boat that was supposed to ferry him to the island where his bride-to-be was already waiting broke down, police said in a post on their website.
It gets worse. The groomsmen, photographer, DJ and floral arrangements were also stuck on the mainland.
Enter Matthews, who transported more than a dozen people to the island on his police boat so Mahoney’s marriage to Hannah Crawford could go on as scheduled.
“They were there very quickly to get my groomsmen and all of our vendors out here to the island and kind of save the day,” Mahoney told The Boston Globe.
Matthews was only too happy to help.
“It was good to get a nice call for a change and help people out,” he said. “They seemed happy, and we were happy we could do it. It all worked out.” | https://www.koin.com/news/weird/boston-police-boat-comes-to-rescue-of-stranded-groom/ | 2022-08-17T06:46:11Z | https://www.koin.com/news/weird/boston-police-boat-comes-to-rescue-of-stranded-groom/ | true |

CEO COMMENTS
Another record quarter
It is with pride and joy that we can present another record quarter with strong growth both in terms of sales and results. Sales have now increased eight quarters in a row and we are showing an all-time high in both net sales and operating result for the sixth consecutive quarter.
Net sales in the quarter increased from SEK 1,486.8 million to SEK 2,019.2 million, a growth of SEK 532.4 million or 36%. In local currencies, growth amounted to 30%.
Operating result increased from SEK 241.3 million to SEK 351.0 million, an increase of SEK 109.7 million or 45%. As previously reported for the second quarter of 2021, we received deferred government PPP loans in the USA of SEK 42.5 million. If you exclude these from the prior year's results, it amounted to SEK 198.8 million, and the actual profit improvement is then SEK 152.5 million or 77%.
The operating margin amounted to 17.4% in the quarter, which is also an all-time high.
All markets showed growth except for the Other countries region, which is due to reduced trading in Asia. The USA and Central Europe stand out with growth of 62% and 52% respectively. The USA is once again our biggest market.
Both our sales channels had good growth with 33% in promo and 40% in retail.
The half year
The first two quarters of the year produced sales growth of 38%, in local currencies 32%. Net sales amounted to SEK 3,794.1 million compared to SEK 2,748.4 million the previous year, a growth of SEK 1,045.7 million. Operating result increased from SEK 341.5 million to SEK 560.1 million or by 64%. The operating margin was thus 14.8% in the first half of the year compared to 12.4% for the same period in the previous year.
Rolling 12 months
On a rolling full-year basis, net sales now amount to SEK 7,764.3 million with an operating result of SEK 1,224.5 million and an operating margin of 15.8%.
Cash flow and balance sheet
We have increased the inventory to address the increasing demand. Accounts receivable increased due to the sales growth and we have distributed 547 MSEK in dividends during the last seven months to the shareholders. Considering these items, our balance sheet remains very strong with an equity ratio of 59% and an equity balance of more than SEK 5 billion. This gives us great security and tremendous opportunities for expansion.
The future
Despite all the current challenges in the world around us, our numbers show that our investments continue to bring success. We currently do not see any reduced demand for our products and brands - rather the opposite. Our sales continue to increase. We have now managed to build up the inventory during the second quarter, however further stock build-up is needed to meet the increasing demand. We also know that we have good growth (42%) in Craft's base orders for the fall. More and more customers are starting to sell our shoes and the Teamwear investment continues to produce good results. I also want to highlight Clique, which is greatly increasing its promo sales, and Cutter & Buck, which has become a growth machine both in Europe and USA.
I am convinced that we are now taking market shares in most areas. If there is a downturn in the economy, we are well positioned to continue to take market shares and show growth. In addition, we have both higher profitability and a stronger balance sheet than most competitors, which opens the door for possible acquisitions at more reasonable prices. In recent years, we have had to refrain from acquisitions due to excessive price expectations.
Finally, a big thank you to our entire organization who have done a great job and a big thank you to all the customers who choose our products.

- The AIR trial is a single arm, multicenter phase 2 study in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)
- Interim data have shown stabilization of the disease and an increase in lung capacity at 24 and 36 weeks
- Oral presentation by Professor Toby Maher on September 4 at 15:00 CET
GOTHENBURG, Sweden, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Vicore Pharma Holding AB (publ) ("Vicore"), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing medicines targeting the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2R), today announces that the previously published interim data from AIR, a phase 2 trial in IPF), will be presented as an oral "late-breaker" on September 4 at 15:00 CET during the European Respiratory Society (ERS) congress in Barcelona, Spain.
The AIR trial1 is an open label single arm phase 2 trial in treatment naïve IPF patients in which 100 mg of C21 was administered twice daily for 24 weeks with an optional 12-week extension. The trial is being conducted in the UK, India, Ukraine and Russia. The IPF diagnosis was established through central reading of high-resolution computer tomography (HRCT). To assess lung function, the gold standard for FVC* measurements was used at all sites. Earlier this year, the company reported promising interim data with increases in lung capacity after 24 to 36 weeks treatment with C21.
The interim data showed that at 24 weeks, the mean FVC was +251 ml (n=9) over baseline versus the expected -120 ml reduction in an untreated population (a difference of 370 ml). At 36 weeks, 5 out of the 7 patients further increased their lung capacity, and 2 remained stable. C21 was safe and well tolerated. The phase 2 trial continues to enroll patients, and in parallel, the company is preparing for the next trial in close collaboration with regulatory and scientific experts.
"The magnitude of the impact on FVC seen in this interim analysis is truly interesting with an increase in lung function over time and if it holds through in a controlled trial, C21 will create a paradigm shift in IPF." says presenter Professor Toby Maher, the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California

About Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
IPF is a debilitating lung disease with a prognosis worse than most cancers. Today, there are two approved treatments for IPF, Ofev® (nintedanib), registered trademark of Boehringer Ingelheim, and Esbriet® (pirfenidone), registered trademark of Roche, which reduce the rate of progression by 50 percent, but with significant side effects and reduced quality of life.
About angiotensin II type 2 receptor agonists (ATRAGs)
The AT2R is part of the body's regeneration and repair system and is suggested to be involved in several diseases connected to ageing and cell senescence, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, chronic kidney disease, heart failure as well as cognitive disorders. Stimulating AT2R has been shown to be effective in combatting disease in numerous models and clinical validation is well advanced in acute and chronic lung disease. Stimulating AT2R also dilates small diseased resistance vessels in animals and in humans, resulting in locally increased blood flow.

(NEXSTAR) – A scorching July set a record in the continental U.S. for overnight warmth, and such evenings are projected to be far more commonplace as new models show the emergence of an “extreme heat belt” by 2053.
The so-called belt will include Northern Texas and states bordering the Gulf, stretching north to Illinois, Indiana, and even up to Wisconsin.
In 2023, 8.1 million Americans living in 50 counties will experience temperatures of at least 125 degrees, the highest classification on the National Weather Service’s Heat Index – “Extreme Danger,” according to nonprofit First Street Foundation’s peer-reviewed model.
Three decades later, the same model shows that climate change will cause 1,023 counties – home to 107.6 million people – will see temperatures rise above 125 degrees.
“Increasing temperatures are broadly discussed as averages, but the focus should be on the extension of the extreme tail events expected in a given year,” said Matthew Eby, founder and CEO of First Street Foundation. “We need to be prepared for the inevitable, that a quarter of the country will soon fall inside the Extreme Heat Belt with temperatures exceeding 125°F and the results will be dire.”
The model takes into account a number of factors including land surface temperatures, tree and other canopy cover, the presence of concrete and other impervious surfaces and the proximity to water. Researchers built the model under an established warming scenario in which greenhouse gas emissions reach their peak around 2040 and then begin to decline.
Not all counties in the study are set to change at the same rate. Florida’s Miami-Dade County, for example, will see the most extreme temperature shift in the country, according to the study. The county’s 7 hottest days are currently at 103 degrees, according to the study, a number that will jump to 34 days by 2053. For the rest of the country, the current average temperature of the hottest seven days is expected to occur on 18 days. Plainly said, temperatures that are setting records in states like Texas in 2023 will become more of the norm in 30 years, the study found.
The study found that “dangerous” days with a heat index exceeding 100 degrees occur more often in the southern half of the contiguous U.S., but especially in Florida and Texas. Starr County, Texas, topped all others in 2022 with 109 days above the threshold.
The 20 counties expected to see the most days over 100 degrees annually are located in Texas, California, Arizona and Florida, the report found, with the top four behind Starr County all being in Texas and California.
On Tuesday, President Biden signed into law designed to fight climate change, along with lowering prescription drug costs and a new corporate minimum tax to make businesses pay their share.
Democrats are calling the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes almost $375 billion over 10 years to fight climate change, “the single biggest climate investment in U.S. history, by far.”
Republicans have criticized the bill, accusing Democrats of government overreach.
“It will make the U.S. a global clean energy powerhouse and very likely we will look back on this as the start of a clean energy economic revolution in the same way we look back at the early 1990s as the IT revolution,” Josh Freed, leader of the climate and energy program at centrist Democratic think tank Third Way told The Hill.

LOS ANGELES (KTLA) – The owner of a restaurant in Los Angeles is being hailed a hero after security footage captured him chasing down a robber and restraining him until help arrived.
Video of the incident, which has since been shared to Reddit, YouTube and Instagram, shows the attacker sucker-punch an elderly diner at Raffallo’s Pizza in Hollywood and then steal from the victim’s pockets.
“He hit the elderly gentleman right in the face, knocked him over. He took his cell phone, he took his wallet, and then he started running away,” said Tim Ratcliff, the owner of the neighboring Hollywood Shin restaurant.
Video shows Ratcliff, who was sitting nearby, immediately begin to pursue the assailant. He tackles the young man as the victim’s belongings fly into the street.
“He ruined my glasses. They’re destroyed,” said Ratcliff, who took a punch to the head while subduing the attacker.
Ratcliff added that he used some “judo moves” to pin the thief while two women helped gather the victim’s belongings and those belonging to Ratcliff, whose cash spilled out while restraining the man.
“He was actually trying to bite me a whole bunch of times,” Ratcliff said of the man.
One of the women who assisted Ratcliff began kicking the thief, the video shows, after Ratcliff said he warned the assailant to stop biting him. She also went to work aggressively restraining the thief’s loose legs by standing on them.
Ratcliff held the man down for about 10 minutes until police arrived.
The suspect, 28-year-old Michael Austin Dona, was arrested and charged with felony robbery.
The victim, said to be in his 70s, was taken to a hospital. He has since recovered from the incident.
Ratcliff, meanwhile, said he would intervene again if the opportunity arose.
“I would do it again,” he said. “I’m tired of things happening that shouldn’t happen, and the easiest thing I can say is there’s more of us than there are of them. If we team up, then it’s going to be fine.” | https://www.wearegreenbay.com/news/national/watch-hollywood-restaurant-owner-tackles-detains-robber-who-punched-patron/ | 2022-08-17T07:02:41Z | https://www.wearegreenbay.com/news/national/watch-hollywood-restaurant-owner-tackles-detains-robber-who-punched-patron/ | true |
Michael Cox was sworn in as the 44th commissioner of the Boston Police on Monday. Cox's rise to become the top cop of Boston is an incredible story considering that in 1995, while working as a Boston Police officer, he was mistaken for a suspect, and beaten by his fellow colleagues.
Cox was in plainclothes following a suspect in January of 1995, and his fellow officers grabbed him, and beat him -- and left him for dead after they saw Cox was carrying a police badge.
Cox, who is Black, went on to fight the blue code of silence. The silence that swallows up police officers from -- in this case -- turning themselves in, or telling the truth about what happened to Cox. This
“After this incident happened, I had a choice — either quit or stay, and I chose to stay, because I believe in policing in a community-friendly way,” he said to The New York Times. “And I know the men and women that I work with believe in that same thing, too.”
Cox went on to fight the city for more than four years, and he was eventually paid $1.25 million in damages and legal fees.
And now he will lead the force and hopefully break down the blue wall of silence.

JOYSBIO, one of the world's leading manufacturers of rapid test kits, has developed two new Monkeypox tests that deliver results in 15 minutes
TIANJIN, China, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- JOYSBIO, one of the world's leading manufacturers of lateral flow rapid test kits, is proud to announce the development of two Monkeypox tests, both of which deliver results in 15 minutes or less. JOYSBIO recently launched a Monkeypox Antigen Rapid test and a Monkeypox IgM/IgG Antibody Rapid test, both are CE-IVD marked. The antigen test tests specimens from human serum, plasma, whole blood, throat swab, saliva, or lesion exudate to determine if there are monkeypox virus antigens. The IgM/IgG Antibody test uses a few drops of blood to find the antibodies that a person's body created after the monkeypox infection. Both tests are currently in clinical evaluation in Europe and showed reliable results with infected patients. More information is available at https://en.joysbio.com/monkeypox-rapid-test-kit/.
"On the heels of COVID-19, another global health concern, monkeypox," said Rick Zhang, Business Development Director for JOYSBIO. "Fortunately, we have treatments for monkeypox that can reduce the painful lesions and likelihood of death. We also have a vaccine for this disease since it's been around for a very long time. Still, before patients can be treated, they need to be properly diagnosed. Monkeypox looks like many other pox diseases. Our tests will be a great tool for healthcare professionals, especially when having limited access to PCR tests."
Monkeypox has had a historical fatality rate of 0.1% to 11% in the general population, but it is much more of a concern among children where the fatality rate can skyrocket. Knowing what one has a disease is always the first step to surviving it. With the JOYSBIO Monkeypox antigen and antibody rapid tests, getting those answers will be much faster and allow healthcare workers to protect themselves and the public better.
"At JOYSBIO," Zhang said. "We're committed to keeping up with all infectious threats to humanity. We will continue to improve our existing tests and develop new ones as needed. The sooner one knows that they're ill, the sooner they can take proactive steps to prevent spread and take care of oneself."

KEA, Greece (AP) — Blending the spiritual with the material, mid-August marks the high point of Greece’s summer season that attracts crowds of city-dwellers back to their ancestral villages.
The Aug. 15 feast of the Dormition of the Virgin Mary is a major religious event coupled with festivals, known as “panigiria,” that can last more than a day with music, dancing and food, as itinerant traders' stalls sell anything from toys to clothes.
Greece has other important religious feast days, but Aug. 15 is one of the most intense. There is also a sense that shortly afterwards the summer holidays will end, everyone will return to the cities and the long, hard slog of everyday life will begin. So people seem to celebrate hard enough for the memories to last through the dreary winter months ahead.
Devotees flock to churches or well-known monasteries. On the island of Tinos, a main pilgrimage site, the more determined crawl on their knees to the church in an expression of piety and, often, in hope of a miraculous cure or other divine intercession.
Monday's celebration of the Dormition was the first in three years without the restrictions imposed by the lockdowns of the coronavirus pandemic, and people turned out in droves.
Churches filled as people expressed relief that they could finally attend open events, but also fears that new restrictions could be imposed once the summer is over.
“People have relaxed; now, of course, only God knows (what’s next), but I think it was time. People can’t stand it any more,” Father Lefteris, the priest in the Panagia Kastriani church on the island of Kea, also known as Tzia, told The
His service was packed with people and the island, close to Athens, chock-full with the cars of vacationers who came from the Greek capital by ferry.
On the mainland, festivities in Hassia, on the northern fringes of Athens, were also exceptionally well-attended — both the religious service at the Church of the Dormition and the colorful bazaar in the village. Hassia is also renowned for its traditional eating spots, and the gluttonous feasting on tender meat was for many the highlight of their stay there.

- The Group's revenues in the first half of the year amounted to approximately NIS 7.2 billion as compared to NIS 7.4 billion in the corresponding period last year.

Harry and Meghan to visit UK next month for first time since Jubilee
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are to visit the UK next month for the first time since returning for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Harry and Meghan will also travel to Germany as part of their trip to support “several charities close to their hearts”, their spokesman said.
The couple will head to Manchester for the One Young World Summit, an event which brings together young leaders from more than 190 countries, on September 5.
Meghan, a counsellor for the organisation, will give the keynote address at the opening ceremony.

They will also meet a group of summit delegates doing “outstanding work on gender equality”, One Young World said.
The Sussexes will then head to Germany for the Invictus Games Dusseldorf 2023 One Year to Go event on September 6, before returning to the UK for the WellChild Awards in London on September 8 where Harry will deliver a speech.
Their visit to the UK will be the first time they have been back in the country since the Jubilee celebrations in early June, when they attended the service of thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral.
It falls in the same week the new prime minister is due to be announced and asked to form a Government by the Queen.
Harry’s 96-year-old grandmother is expected to return to London from her annual summer break at Balmoral to carry out her head of state duties, and it is likely the duke will want to visit her.
A spokesman for the couple said: “Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are delighted to visit with several charities close to their hearts in early September.”

The duke, who quit as a senior working royal in 2020, is bringing legal action over a decision not to allow him to pay for police protection for himself and his family when in the UK.
Last month, he won a bid to bring a High Court claim against the Home Office.
His challenge concerns the February 2020 decision of the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) over his security, after being told he would no longer be given the “same degree” of personal protective security when visiting.
The royal family has been bracing itself for Harry’s forthcoming tell-all book, which he has vowed will be an “accurate and wholly truthful” account of his life.

The memoirs were expected to be published in late 2022 by Penguin Random House but a release date has yet to be confirmed.
There will be concern in royal quarters that the duke will delve into his rift with his brother, the Duke of Cambridge, his troubled relationship with his father, the Prince of Wales, his view of stepmother the Duchess of Cornwall and the turbulent fallout of Megxit.
Harry and Meghan accused the royal family of racism in their controversial Oprah Winfrey interview last year, saying an unnamed royal made a racist remark about their son Archie before he was born, and that the institution failed to help a suicidal Meghan.
It is thought unlikely the couple will bring their children Archie and Lili on the working trip.
The youngsters travelled with their parents to the UK for the Platinum Jubilee and Lili celebrated her first birthday at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor, but Archie and his younger sister did not attend any public events.
Harry and Meghan kept out of the limelight for the majority of the weekend, with the Queen deciding only working royals should grace the Buckingham Palace balcony during the historic festivities.
The Sussexes renewed their lease on Frogmore Cottage earlier this year.
If Harry and Meghan stay at their UK base, they will be just minutes away from the Cambridges, who are due to have relocated to their new home, Adelaide Cottage on the Windsor estate, before the new school term begins in September.

The Daily Telegraph reported William and Kate will have settled into the four bedroom property, but their nanny Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo, will live elsewhere for the first time, as will other staff including the housekeeper and the chef.
The location of the Cambridges’ new home raises the chances of a private meeting between Harry, Meghan, William and Kate, despite their troubled history.
Meghan accused Kate of making her cry in the run up to her wedding, and Harry has described his relationship with William as “space”. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11112199/Harry-Meghan-visit-UK-month.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-17T07:37:25Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11112199/Harry-Meghan-visit-UK-month.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true |

Body of hero dad is found in Lake Garda a month after he dived in to save his son, 14, and vanished in holiday tragedy
- Aran Chada, 51, leapt in to save his son but sank after pushing him to safety
- Italian diving teams found his body 316 metres below the surface in Lake Garda
- 'It was the least we could do because he had been so brave,' said the coastguard
Divers have recovered the body of a hero British dad who drowned after he bravely dived into an Italian lake to save his son.
Aran Chada, 51, jumped in as Roman, 14, got into difficulty while they enjoyed a family holiday with partner Holly Mosley, 39, and daughter Floren, seven.
Tragedy struck after they had rented a boat for the afternoon on picturesque Lake Garda in northern Italy on July 22, just a few days after arriving for their break.
Witnesses said Mr Chada leapt in when Roman got into trouble and after pushing him back to the safety of the boat, he slipped beneath the surface in front of his family.
Aran Chada, 51, who drowned after jumping into an Italian lake trying to save his son Roman, 14, is pictured in the centre-right. His partner Holly Mosley, 39, and daughter Floren, seven., are also pictured
Coastguards and specialist diving teams had vowed to carry on searching for him and late on Tuesday evening after more than three weeks they found his body at a depth of 316 metres.
A specialist underwater robot and sonar equipment had been brought in for the operation and Mr Chada was found around 800 metres from the shore and his body brought back on a coastguard boat.
Partner Holly had raised the alarm and her screams for help were heard by passing boats who alerted coastguard dive teams. He was the third person to die in the lake that week.
Since then, another tourist has also died in Lake Garda, a popular holiday destination where the water is often cold and reaches depths of 350 metres.
Coastguard commander Antonio Ragadale told MailOnline: 'It was a complicated and difficult search but we had promised to find his body so his family could be reunited with him.
'It was the least we could do because he had been so brave in diving into the lake when he saw his son get into trouble.
Coastguards and specialist diving teams vowed to carry on searching for him and found his body 316 metres below the surface after more than three weeks of searching
Italian diving teams brought in specialist underwater robot and sonar equipment for the operation and Mr Chada was found around 800 metres from the shore
'The operation lasted almost a month and we were searching continually day after day for him with a robot and sonar and he was found at a considerable death, 316 meters which made it a very complex operation.
'This man was a hero and at last now he can be reunited with his family, we had vowed we would carry on for the sake of them and we have done our duty.'
Mr Chada, who was from Woodhouse Eaves near Loughborough, Leicestershire, had been in holiday in Italy to celebrate his 52 birthday which was just days away when he drowned.
Officials suspect he suffered a hypothermic shock as the water was considerably colder than the 38C air temperature recorded the day he died.
His family had been notified and relatives are expected to travel to Italy later this week to formally identify his body.
Mr Chada was a consultant for a lettings company and also a sales director for a firm called Global Energy Ventures and neighbours described him as a 'brilliant guy' in tributes.

The minimalistic cabins that house two people and features a wrap around deck with a private soaking spa. There are six cabins available and they all share the same features.
Nestled in the hills between White Salmon and Stevenson lies the newest Gorge getaway. The Tenzen Springs & Cabins sits on a wide open 100-acre property that is now open and reservations have been flowing in. But owners Nanae and Nick Yoshida’s priority isn’t to make money. They want to share their discovered gift where guests can experience the outdoors through a different lens — or soaking tub.
“We really wanted to embrace the Japanese traditional aesthetics, wabi-sabi design concept and combine that with Scandinavian hot springs culture,” Nick said. “There is a lot of synergy and similarity between those two frameworks.”
Six cabins are available and each features a wrap-around deck, queen-sized beds on a bamboo frame, indoor steam-sauna shower and a geothermal spring water soaking tubs. The minimalist cabins have tall 14-foot ceilings with windows that lookout over the Columbia River Gorge. A small kitchenette is enough for guests to prepare breakfast. Leading out from the bathroom is the soaking tub area with complimentary sandals and towels to use after enjoying a warm soak. The tub area is outfitted with an outdoor shower and side-by-side doors that open to views over the Gorge.
The cabins have been decades in the making. The Yoshidas moved to Portland in the 1970s from Japan. When Nick’s mother, Toyo, developed rheumatoid arthritis, his late father Tak and she began visiting the Carson Hot Springs to try and alleviate some of her aches and pains.
“In Japan, hot springs are recommended for rheumatoid and other arthritis,” Nick said.
The frequent from-Portland commute convinced them to consider buying a cabin closer to the springs. So, in 1996 they bought a cabin, and purely out of curiosity they decided to see if their new property included an underground aquifer. Sure enough, 3,000 feet down there was an artesian hot spring that gushed 160-degree water 250 gallons per minute, and Tak and Toyo wanted to share their discovery with everyone. They began researching how they could integrate their Japanese hot springs culture to the Gorge.
“When people talk about vacation and traveling (in Japan), a main component is centered around the Onsen experience,” Nick explained. An “onsen” is the Japanese name for a hot spring, but it also refers to the bathing experience that is so prevalent on and around the islands of Japan.
The different Washington laws and regulations surrounding groundwater made it difficult to open their dream day spa. According to Nick, in accordance with the State’s Department of Ecology, the family had to drill an injection well which would replenish the water used in the original well.
Fast forward to 2016 and they had finally found an injection well just a few days before Tak passed away. Originally, they planned to build a day spa where guests could come for a couple hours, enjoy the views and unwind. They had blueprints drawn up for a few small pools overlooking the valley below, secured permits from the local agencies and then COVID-19 swept across the country and totally put an end to their plans.
Fortunately, the Skamania Economic Development Council wanted to help.
“They liked our new idea of what it would be like if we actually built these socially distanced COVID appropriate cabins where you have more privacy and solitude and they offered us funding," Nick said.
In collaboration with Miyuki Yoshida, Nick’s sister, Derek Edwards of Develop Consulting LLC, and Troffer Contracting, they built the cabins. Finally, in June, Tenzen welcomed their first guests — with a couple prerequisites. The cabins have a two-night minimum, to make sure guests truly recharge their mental, social and physical batteries. Children and pets are not allowed in the cabins. Tenzen wants to give parents or mature couples an opportunity to escape their daily lives and use their stay to rest, relax and rejuvenate.
“We respect everybody, but we really do hope they can use this as an escape,” said Nick. “And really getting back to finding their core and finding — if you will — their goodness.”
Outside of the cabins and hot springs, Tenzen offers an option to rent out the property for weddings or other corporate events. Wedding ceremonies can be held at the arbor with the view of Columbia River and all six cabins will be booked for the wedding party. | https://www.columbiagorgenews.com/news/gorge-local---in-business-tenzen-springs-brings-spa-culture-to-the-gorge/article_077e67fc-1da5-11ed-b6a6-370b6ec00d05.html | 2022-08-17T08:09:43Z | https://www.columbiagorgenews.com/news/gorge-local---in-business-tenzen-springs-brings-spa-culture-to-the-gorge/article_077e67fc-1da5-11ed-b6a6-370b6ec00d05.html | true |
SafeSpace Children’s Advocacy Center of the Gorge raised $42,000 at its Summer of Hope Benefit, held July 23 at Stave & Stone Winery. Funds will go to services helping child victims get back to being kids, said Kelly Brown, SafeSpace development director and volunteer coordinator. “As a children’s advocacy center, SafeSpace offers justice, hope and healing to child victims of abuse in Gilliam, Hood River, Klickitat, Wasco and Wheeler counties,” said Brown.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Kentucky State Parks has launched a photo contest that encourages visitors to capture some of the best parts of their stay.
The contest aims to attract more travelers and showcase these "places of beauty, from scenic mountain views to tranquil beaches,” Kentucky Department of Parks Commissioner Russ Meyer said this week in a statement.
Photos can be entered in the categories of camping, scenic, trails and park activities and will be judged on factors including originality and artistic composition, officials said.
Photo submissions can be made through Oct. 31, and winners will be announced in December.
A grand prize winner will receive a two-night cottage stay, a Canon camera and a $100 Kentucky State Parks gift card. Four honorable mention categories will have first- and second-place winners, who will receive camping certificates and gift cards. | https://www.theridgefieldpress.com/news/article/Kentucky-State-Parks-launches-photo-contest-17378736.php | 2022-08-17T08:13:01Z | https://www.theridgefieldpress.com/news/article/Kentucky-State-Parks-launches-photo-contest-17378736.php | true |
LONDON, Aug 17 ― British consumer price inflation jumped to 10.1 per cent in July, its highest since February 1982, up from an annual rate of 9.4 per cent in June, intensifying the squeeze on households, official figures showed today.
The increase was above all economists' forecasts in a Reuters poll for inflation to rise to 9.8 per cent in July, and will do nothing to ease the Bank of England's concerns that price pressures may become entrenched.
Earlier this month the BoE raised its key interest rate by 0.5 per cent to 1.75 per cent ― its first half-point rise since 1995 ― and it forecast inflation would peak at 13.3 per cent in October, when regulated household energy prices are next due to rise.
Today's figures from the Office for National Statistics showed that prices rose 0.6 per cent in July from June on a non-seasonally adjusted basis, while the annual rate of retail price inflation hit 12.3 per cent, its highest since March 1981.
“Getting inflation under control is my top priority, and we are taking action through strong, independent monetary policy, responsible tax and spending decisions, and reforms to boost productivity and grow,” finance minister Nadhim Zahawi said in response to the data.
Surging energy prices in Europe, in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, are the main driver of inflation and are likely to tip Britain into a lengthy, if shallow, recession, later this year, according to the BoE.
However, there were hints in the data that future inflation pressure might be starting to abate.
Although the prices charged by factories rose by the most since August 1977, jumping by 17.1 per cent, the increases in prices paid by factories cooled slightly, dropping to an annual 22.6 per cent from June's record 24.1 per cent.
In month-on-month terms, input prices rose by only 0.1 per cent, the slowest increase so far in 2022, partly caused by weaker global demand for steel as economic growth slows around the world and a fall in crude oil prices. ― Reuters | https://www.malaymail.com/news/money/2022/08/17/uk-inflation-hits-double-digits-highest-since-1982/23230 | 2022-08-17T08:26:35Z | https://www.malaymail.com/news/money/2022/08/17/uk-inflation-hits-double-digits-highest-since-1982/23230 | true |
NEW YORK, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Shared micro-mobility operators have been eager to expand their operations, paying little attention to developing a sustainable business model. However, now low on the funding that allowed them to run unprofitable operations, they are forced to move away from growth-based strategies. ABI Research, a global technology intelligence firm, finds that by reformulating business models, operations, and strategic goals, shared micro-mobility companies can unleash the potential of a market worth US$9 billion in ride revenues in 2030.
"After years of rapid but disorderly expansion, most players have high idle vehicle rates and low profitability in various markets due to a mismatch between vehicle supply and demand. To thrive in the shared micro-mobility market, operators must optimally relocate or expand operations based on data-driven insights and analytics rather than intuition. It is also imperative to adopt measures to reduce costs that have skyrocketed with the enhancement of vehicle durability, safety, electrification, and recent restrictions and demands made by city authorities," explains Maite Bezerra, Smart Mobility & Automotive Industry Analyst at ABI Research.
Vehicle charging accounts for 50% of the operating costs per vehicle. Combined with rebalancing, they are the highest operational costs in shared micro-mobility. These costs can be significantly reduced by outsourcing field operations and adopting swappable batteries. Swappable batteries reduce recharge costs by 30% to 60% because vehicles do not need to be transported to the warehouse to be charged. At the same time, charging time can be cut from 4 hours to 15 minutes. When embedded connectivity is available, operators can use cloud-based fleet management platforms to automate vehicle rebalancing, charging, and servicing tasks, reducing vehicle downtime by up to 80%. Moreover, location information enables the development of a plethora of services such as demand heatmaps, which can increase fleet usage by 22% in six months.
Data analytics and fleet management platforms, like the ones offered by Otonomo, Anadue, Targa Telematics, and Autofleet, use Machine Learning and predictive analytics to maximize operational efficiencies, optimally expand or relocate existing operations, and ultimately increase ROI based on data-driven insights. Moreover, they provide quantifiable impact metrics, which are advantageous assets for competitive tender applications. Business model reassessment is another urgent need because presently, ride revenues are insufficient to cover their costs. Advertising-led revenues, gamification, dynamic pricing, and diversification into last-mile delivery or vehicle manufacturing for the consumer markets are some tools that can significantly increase profitability.
"Shared-micro mobility operators have a tough road ahead, including the need to downsize/restructure, consolidations, and slower growth rates. However, those who are quick to understand the importance of data analytics and implement efficiency and profitability-based goals will be able to navigate the market successfully," Bezerra concludes.
These findings are from ABI Research's Improving Efficiency and Profitability of Shared Micro-Mobility Operators application analysis report. This report is part of the company's Smart Mobility & Automotive research service, which includes research, data, and ABI Insights. Based on extensive primary interviews, Application Analysis reports present in-depth analysis on key market trends and factors for a specific technology.

NTSB: Copilot who jumped from plane upset about hard landing
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Federal investigators say a man who jumped to his death from a small airplane in North Carolina appeared to be upset over damaging the landing gear during a failed runaway approach. The National Transportation Safety Board released its preliminary report on the crash Tuesday. The plane’s pilot in command told federal investigators that his copilot “became visibly upset about the hard landing” after they diverted to another airport. The report said the copilot lowered the ramp in the back of the airplane. He then “removed his headset, apologized and departed the airplane via the aft ramp door.” The incident occurred July 29 about 30 miles south of Raleigh-Durham International Airport.

The new V25 series enables new dimensions of creativity with flagship-level camera technology, and stylish appearances with eye-catching colors
SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- vivo has unveiled the latest additions to its stylish V series: V25 and V25 Pro. With superior photography features, the smartphones have been designed for users who express themselves through photos and videos. The new V25 series will give users the power to embark on a self-expression journey with its stunning camera, powered by high-performance, energy-efficient hardware, all cased in an exquisite body.
The new V25 series follows V series' heritage of capturing exquisite moments with its superior camera capabilities and cutting-edge imaging technology. The flagship-level 64MP OIS ultra-sensing camera on the back minimizes blurry shots and supports a longer exposure time, creating clearer and brighter images and videos even in dim lighting conditions. With an eye-catching design, the Color Changing Fluorite AG Glass[1] covering the rear panel changes its hue when exposed to UV light, reflecting the dynamic personalities of users. Below its beautiful appearance lies a powerful processor with high energy-efficiency ratio and great capacity. Coupled with the newest cooling technology and fast charging capabilities, it offers a long-lasting and smooth mobile experience in various scenarios.
"vivo V series has always been about being innovative and technologically advanced, while exuding style and encouraging users to create, have fun, and explore. The new V25 and V25 Pro continue to embody this concept and provide users with fresh tools and features," said Spark Ni, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at vivo, "vivo understands that users want a smartphone that is aesthetically pleasing and has excellent functional attributes. With the carefully designed new devices, users can capture the best moments in life with their family and friends anywhere, any time with intuitive camera technologies, while expressing their creativity and emotions through the unique color-changing design."
Light up portraits in the night with intuitive imaging technology
Equipped with a 64MP OIS ultra-sensing rear camera that boasts upgraded OIS and EIS capabilities and an 8MP wide-angle camera, V25 and V25 Pro deliver an excellent imaging experience and allow users to capture high-quality, super-wide shots with ease.
V25 Pro is setting new standards in night photography with the upgraded Super Night Mode feature, which accurately restores the colors and brightness of highly saturated images at night. Coupled with the new Real-Time Extreme Night Vision feature, users can manually adjust the exposure intensity when they preview an image, further improving the brightness, noise control and details of photos in real-time even in low-light environments. This gives users the freedom to play with the rear camera portrait features at night.
Easy and fun video filming experience with style
V25 Pro creates more possibilities for users to easily film and record fun and playful moments with families, friends, or pets at night. The Super Night Video feature is excellent at brightening and noise reduction in dark environments, enabling users to shoot brighter and clearer videos at night. The front cameras of V25 and V25 Pro both have the Natural Portrait video mode, which enhances the overall skin texture and clarity. Furthermore, the Hybrid Image Stabilization (OIS+EIS) feature makes video shooting clearer and more stable[2].
V25 and V25 Pro also come with a new Vlog Movie feature that improves the filming experience with video templates and tutorials to guide users on how to shoot in different scenarios, such as night, food, city and more, as well as an upgraded Multi-Style Portrait feature in the front camera that provides fun filters, enhancing the video experience. The Multi-Style Portrait feature also allows users to unleash their creativity with the Motion Blur effect, a new style which innovatively separates people from the background for a better portrait creation experience.
Clear selfies powered by auto-focus capability and leading AI algorithms
Clarity is a key consideration and an ever-growing demand of users when it comes to taking great selfies and videos. Therefore, V25 and V25 Pro have 50MP and 32MP HD front cameras respectively with autofocus and eye focus capabilities, enabling users to take clear images and videos any time of the day or night. In addition, the front cameras are equipped with AI HD Algorithm that optimizes sharpness. Moreover, V25 Pro's industry-leading AI Skin Retouching Algorithm provides users with the airbrushed look when needed.
Spark creativity and fun through innovative color-changing design
V25 has a thin 2.5D body that is 7.79mm, while the slim body of V25 Pro is 8.62mm[3] and features an elegant 3D Curved Screen with a punch hole centered at the top of the front camera[4] . The lightweight and slim body makes both devices a comfortable fit in the hands of users. To ensure the phones stand out, vivo incorporated vivid colors into its newest models. V25 Pro comes in Surfing Blue and Starlight Black, while V25 is decked out in Aquamarine Blue, Sunrise Gold, and Diamond Black.
In addition, vivo designed the smartphones to spark creativity and fun in users with the revolutionary Color Changing Fluorite AG Glass, which enables the rear panel of the devices to display different colors at different angles when exposed to UV light. The Surfing Blue edition of V25 Pro changes from light sky blue to deep ocean blue; the Aquamarine Blue edition of V25 switches from ocean blue to bluish green; while the Sunrise Gold edition of V25 shifts from gold to reddish orange.
Powered by energy-efficient and high-performance chipsets
The new V25 series delivers robust performance and high-power efficiency to support various daily uses of its users. V25 Pro is equipped with a quasi-flagship octa-core CPU, MediaTek Dimensity 1300, with 8GB/12GB RAM + 8GB extended RAM[5], which powers exceptional 5G capabilities[6] and provides greater AI imaging capacity to effortlessly produce stunning 4K videos and ensure a smooth gaming experience. Its performance and user experience are improved thanks to the new, industry-leading Bionic Cooling System. In addition, featuring a 66W FlashCharge capability and a 4830mAh large battery, it can power up the large-capacity and high-density battery cell from 0% to 71% in 30 minutes[7].
V25 features a MediaTek Dimensity 900 processor with a high energy-efficiency ratio and 8GB/12GB RAM + 8GB extended RAM, enabling users to seamlessly play demanding games and multitask across various apps. V25 supports 44W FlashCharge that can recharge the 4500mAh battery cell from 0% to 61% in 30 minutes[8].

While he is a massive sports fanatic, his interest also lies in mainstream news and nitpicking trending and less talked about everyday issues.
Given India's geographic and demographic vastness, limited water resources and willingness to face environmental challenges, the Jal Shakti Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat stated.
More than ₹30,000 crores have been approved for projects set for cleaning the river Ganga and all its tributaries, Jal Shakti Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat announced on August 16.
While emphasising the need for limited water resources, Shekhawat added that the very start of economic development is "our water resource and energy".
Make Ganga Clean Again!
The graph of the requirement for our economic development and natural resources is fairly identical. Given India's geographic and demographic vastness, limited water resources and willingness to face environmental challenges, the Jal Shakti Minister claimed that they ensure sustainable water use and other natural resources.
He added that a lot of infrastructures had been built to clean Ganga and all its tributaries as well, reported News18.
Massive Project In Hand
"Projects worth more than ₹30,000 crores have been sanctioned," Gajendra Singh Shekhawat stated.
The minister also expressed his delight in the 'Namami Gange' programme transforming into a 'Jan Andolan' (mass movement) with the help of numerous different organisations and claimed that in more than 100 districts along Ganga, proper talks had been held over issues which are related to the river and all remedial actions are taken accordingly.
The Jal Shakti minister made these comments as he presided over the 'Yamuna Par Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav' event.
This occasion marked the official launch of new initiatives under Arth Ganga, which includes Jalaj, a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Sahakar Bharati for natural farming and tourism-related portal ImAvatar. The winners of Ganga Quest 2022 were felicitated at the event.

Sarah Palin reaches Alaskan election´s final round in comeback bid
Former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin has advanced to the final round in the race for Alaska’s only seat in the House of Representatives as she seeks a return to elected office.
Alaska Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski and Kelly Tshibaka, her Republican rival who was endorsed by former president Donald Trump, also advanced from a primary on Tuesday.
Ms Murkowski had expressed confidence she would advance and earlier in the day told reporters that “what matters is winning in November”. Ms Tshibaka called the results “the first step in breaking the Murkowski monarchy’s grip on Alaska”.
A Murkowski has held the Senate seat since 1981 – before Lisa Murkowski, who has been in the Senate since late 2002, it was her father, Frank Murkowski.

Under a voter-approved elections process being used for the first time in Alaska elections this year, party primaries have been scrapped and ranked choice voting is being used in general elections.
The top four vote-winners in a primary race, regardless of party affiliation, are to advance to the general election.
The other two places in the Senate race were too early to call.
In the House primary, Democrat Mary Peltola, Ms Palin and Republican Nick Begich advanced to the November election. It was too early to call the fourth spot. The winner of the November race will be elected to a two-year term.
Ms Peltola, Mr Begich and Ms Palin were also competing in a special election to serve the remainder of the late Don Young’s term, which ends early next year. Mr Young died in March.
The special election was voters’ first shot at ranked voting in a statewide race. The winner of the special election may not be known until at least August 31.
The special election was on one side of the ballot. The other side contained primary races for US Senate, US House, governor and lieutenant governor and legislative seats.
Ms Palin, in a statement on Tuesday evening, called this “the first test case of the crazy, convoluted, undesirable ranked-choice voting system”.
Mr Begich, a businessman from a family of prominent Democrats, came out hard against Ms Palin during the campaign, seeking to cast her as someone chasing fame and as a quitter. Ms Palin resigned during her term as governor in 2009.
A narrator in one of Ms Palin’s ads refers to Mr Begich as “negative Nick” and says Ms Palin wants to serve in Congress “to carry Don Young’s torch”,
Ms Peltola, a former lawmaker who most recently worked at a commission whose goal is to rebuild salmon resources on the Kuskokwim River, has cast herself as a “regular Alaskan” and as a consensus builder.
In the race for Alaska governor, Republican governor Mike Dunleavy advanced, as did former governor Bill Walker, an independent, and Democrat Les Gara. It was too early to call the fourth spot.
Mr Dunleavy and his running mate, Nancy Dahlstrom, in a statement said this “is only the start of the race. We’ll dig into all the numbers as they come in over the next few days to find out where we need to shore up our campaign, and we’re looking forward to reaching every Alaskan and earning their vote between now and November”. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11119177/Sarah-Palin-reaches-Alaskan-election-s-final-round-comeback-bid.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-17T08:51:30Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11119177/Sarah-Palin-reaches-Alaskan-election-s-final-round-comeback-bid.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false |
Voters prefer to earn a dignified earning over freebies: SC
During a hearing on a petition to curb the practice of offering or distributing “irrational freebies”, CJI Ramana pointed out that political parties have lost elections despite promising freebies
Voters, if given a chance, will prefer to earn a dignified earning through welfare schemes such as MNREGA and create public assets in rural India. Freebies do not always decide the outcome of elections for political parties, the Supreme Court said on Wednesday.
A Bench led by Chief Justice of India N.V. Ramana said there have been instances of parties losing elections in spite of their promises of freebies.
“Given an opportunity, they (voters) will opt for dignified earning. For example, MNREGA offered dignified earning and also created public assets in rural areas. So, I don’t think promises alone decide the outcome of elections... There are instances of parties not being elected despite their promises,” Chief Justice Ramana said.
The court was hearing a petition to curb the practice of offering or distributing “irrational freebies” at the cost of public money, especially in debt-ridden States during the run-up to elections.
The court said its primary concern is about “the right way of spending public money”. The court indicated that promises of freebies come at a cost to the public exchequer. “At the end of the day, we must say there is no free lunch,” the Bench observed.
The court is dealing with rival contentions raised in the case. On one side that freebies are a waste of public money and a sure road to economic doom for the country, while on the other hand that these are incentives and schemes to ensure public welfare.
“We cannot stop political parties from making promises. But the question is what does a ‘valid promise’ exactly comprise? Can promise of electricity, water, a few units of power be considered as freebies? Can we treat promises of consumer products, electronics free of cost for all as a welfare measure?” the court asked.
‘Don’t confuse freebies with welfare schemes’
Chief Justice Ramana said freebies should not be confused with welfare schemes introduced by States.
Senior advocate P. Wilson, for Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, submitted that the Constitution empowered States to promulgate welfare schemes. The term ‘freebies’ cannot be interpreted to restrict States’ competence to provide welfare.
The Bench noted that Article 38 of the Constitution mandates states to ensure the welfare of the people, “minimise inequalities in income and endeavor to eliminate inequalities in status, facilities and opportunities, not only amongst individuals but also amongst groups of people residing in different areas or engaged in different vocations”.
The court said parties involved, including the Centre, state parties should come up with their opinions and recommendations on the issue of freebies which is getting more “complicated”. The court posted the case next week.
In the previous hearing, senior advocate Vikas Singh, for petitioner Ashwini Upadhyay, said States have ₹ 15 lakh crore debt. “Public money should not be misused by political parties whose only intention is to gain and retain power,” Mr. Singh said.
Senior advocate Arvind Datar, also for the petitioner side, said “giving laptops, TVs and gold chains cannot be to promote Directive Principles of State Policy”.
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, for the Centre, agreed with the court’s proposal to form an expert body to recommend guidelines against freebies.
He said the “freebie culture” has been “elevated to an art” by some parties.
“Sometimes, elections are fought only on the promise of freebies. It is a dangerous situation if distribution of freebies is considered the only way to reach out to the electorate… We are leading the country to a disaster,” Mr. Mehta submitted.
The top law officer had even suggested that the proposed expert body should, along with representatives of national political parties, RBI, Niti Aayog, Finance Commission, etc, also have members of the industry. He pointed out that some of these sectors, like electricity, was already “stressed” by the distribution of freebies by certain state governments.
Chief Justice Ramana said the court is striving for a balance between the welfare requirements of the people, especially the poor and the downtrodden, and the need to avert a national economic loss through unbridled distribution of largesse by political parties to hold on to power.

DÜSSELDORF, Germany and ZANDT, Germany, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Gerresheimer AG and Zollner Elektronik AG are pooling their market-leading pharmaceutical and medical technology expertise under a strategic partnership. Starting immediately, they will offer pharmaceutical, healthcare and biotech companies their conceptual design, development and manufacturing capacities for drug delivery and medical technology systems, including complete electronics, from one single source. Gerresheimer serves as the central point of contact for customers. The market-leading partners combine the expertise of Gerresheimer in innovative devices for the administration of medicines and medical technology systems with the globally established electronics expertise of Zollner. Together they want to further develop their expertise in the healthcare sector and open up new markets.
With this strategic partnership, Gerresheimer and Zollner are counting on the global trend toward electronic, digitally controllable and connected drug delivery and diagnostic systems. These include insulin pens, inhalators, like for people suffering with asthma, Point-of-Care systems and medicine pumps. The demand for medical and pharmaceutical devices with electronic components mostly for the treatment of chronic illnesses will significantly increase in coming years. According to studies, the market for digital and connected solutions for the treatment of diabetes alone is expected to grow to around EUR 11bn by 2025.
Zollner Elektronik AG is one of the world's largest manufacturing service providers for electronic and mechatronic components (Electronic Manufacturing Services or EMS). It generated revenues of around 1.9 billion Euros with just over 12,000 employees at 23 locations in Germany and abroad, 18.3% of that in the area of Healthcare & Life Sciences.
"The future belongs to digital treatment support with electronic systems and connected platforms," said Dietmar Siemssen, CEO of Gerresheimer AG. "The partnership with Zollner helps us provide our pharma customers with innovative one-stop medtech solutions. For patients, using these solutions means better treatment and enhanced quality of life. At the same time, the healthcare system also benefits by way of permanently reduced treatment costs."
"Digitalization of medical devices is advancing at a very fast tempo. At Zollner, we are happy to have found an ideal partner in Gerresheimer for the expansion of our successful Healthcare & Life Sciences efforts," says Markus Aschenbrenner, Managing Board Member at Zollner. "Together we will expand access to existing markets, exploit new growth markets and support our mutual customers along the entire life cycle of the products."
Zollner and Gerresheimer have collected much cooperation experience in numerous projects. The electronics specialist in Zandt already supplies Duesseldorf-based Gerresheimer with components and assemblies for medicine pumps in Parkinson's therapy. Gerresheimer and Zollner are now further developing this cooperation and will act as equal partners for the healthcare system of the future. Through the integration of concept design, development and manufacturing, the products of both sides can be brought to market faster and more efficiently. Also gained is permanent, secure access to electronic components. The cooperation initially covers the development of inhalers for chronic lung disease sufferers, autoinjectors, ophthalmology systems and drug pumps, as well as contract manufacturing for these and similar devices.

ELLENWOOD, Ga. — High school football teams around the country are starting training this time of year, including the Cedar Grove Saints.
On a hot, humid morning, players were doing drills on the field behind their suburban Atlanta high school as head coach John Adams gave them guidance and encouragement.
This is a good team; they've won four state titles in the past six years, and four former Saints were in the NFL draft this past year – more than any other high school in the country.
So Adams was excited about the upcoming season. But he was also watchful about keeping the athletes safe as they worked out in the Atlanta heat.
"The heat has been to a point where it's hard on anybody," he said. "But I think if you condition consistently in the heat, you kind of get used to it."
He reminds the students to drink enough water even on days they aren't practicing. They take longer breaks. And he said he checks on them during practice, to make sure they're OK.
Football and the dangers of heat
From the pros, to college, to high school, football players start practicing at the hottest time of year, many on turf fields roasting under direct sun. They wear layers of equipment, and many of them – especially the linemen – are big.
That can add up to a dangerous situation.
According to research from the University of Georgia, between 1980 and 2009, 58 football players around the country died from heat-related illness. Most of them were in high school.
The study, published in 2010, found that the number of football players dying from the heat was going up over time. Georgia was one of the worst states, leading the country in high school football player heat-related deaths.
But in the last decade, Georgia has turned things around. Experts say it's bucked the trend of rising numbers of players suffering from heat illness. And the rules put in place here have become a model for other states looking to protect student athletes from the heat.
That's all the more important as climate change drives up temperatures and humidity.
At Cedar Grove's practice, the sideline, which was in the shade, was littered with water bottles. The team took five-minute water breaks together, but Adonijah Green, a 17-year-old defensive end, said athletes can also get a drink whenever they need one.
"We're able to hydrate anytime with no restrictions on the water," he said
And the players weren't wearing their pads yet. In late July, they were getting used to working out in the heat, with limited practices, limited contact – no tackling allowed – and without all their equipment.
"With the pads, it gets hot, it gets heavy," Green said. "It tires you down."
These aren't just policies at Cedar Grove. The Georgia High School Association mandates a five-day ramp-up period without pads as teams begin training.
Athletes have to be allowed to hydrate whenever they need to, and coaches aren't allowed to make them do drills as punishment.
During the hotter part of the year, teams also have to measure the wet bulb globe temperature, which factors in not only heat and humidity, but also sun exposure, before and during practice. Depending on that reading, there are more and longer breaks required, and at high temperatures, teams have to be prepared to immerse a player in an ice bath if needed.
If it gets even hotter, no outside practice is allowed at all. If the wet bulb globe temperature hits 92, no outside practice is allowed at all.
Bud Cooper, a clinical professor in the Department of Kinesiology at the University of Georgia who studies heat illness and athletes, said before the Georgia High School Association adopted those rules about a decade ago, schools could do pretty much whatever they wanted.
After a high-profile heat-related death of a high school football player, though, the association was ready to make a change.
"Clearly, there was a problem," Cooper said.
Protecting student athletes
He and other experts at UGA designed the heat rules based on their research. Cooper said when they presented them to the high school association, he wasn't sure how they'd be received.
"The rules committee was made up of a group of five coaches, all who had individually, probably 35 or 40 years of coaching. So folks that have been around for a long, long time," he said.
But the rules, which cover all high school sports, not just football, were adopted, he said, after relatively little discussion.
Cooper and his colleagues did a follow-up study after the rules had been instituted, to confirm that they worked.
They did.
According to their research, there have been fewer heat illnesses, and, among programs that followed the rules, no heat-related deaths among high school football players in Georgia.
"It's exciting for my part," Cooper said. "There is nothing that's more satisfying than for me to be able to sit here and say, 'I've done some things that have saved lives.' "
And not only in Georgia, according to Becca Stearns, chief operating officer at the Korey Stringer Institute at the University of Connecticut, a program that studies and advocates for athlete safety, named after a Minnesota Vikings player who died from heat stroke.
"Georgia is one of the states that has been so profound in its impact and leadership when it comes to heat safety and the policies enacted within the state," Stearns said.
Science-backed rules
What stands out about Georgia, Stearns said, is that the rules are based on data and research. Other states have been able to adapt Georgia's model to protect their student athletes, too.
According to Stearns, 30 states mandate some kind of policy around heat. A dozen states base their policy on the wet bulb globe temperature.
It's more urgent now, Stearns said, as climate change drives up temperature and humidity.
According to another paper from the UGA researchers, in the future, Atlanta could have four times as many days when it's too hot to exercise outdoors safely. Other cities around the country also see increases.
"It's certainly a very relevant conversation in terms of maybe trying to act now, before it becomes even more intense," Stearns said. "We're seeing an uptick in the cases of heat illness."
Experts underscore, death from heat stroke is preventable, but teams have to be prepared: to be able to recognize its symptoms, and to treat anyone suffering from it as quickly as possible – cooling their bodies down before transporting them anywhere.
For parents of student athletes, Stearns said they should feel comfortable asking what their school's or state's heat policies are.
"The question always comes down to, 'Who is responsible for the health and safety of our high school athletes?' And the sad thing is, it's not always a clear answer," she said. "I would not drop my kids off at the pool without a lifeguard. And it's the same idea with this. You want to make sure those protections are in place before you drop your kid off at sports practice."
Cedar Grove's Coach Adams said to him, the key is to plan ahead, be smart with practices, and always keep the best interests of the students in mind.
"They're kids. So, you know, sometimes kids are just going to try to toughen it out. But you got to be smart," he said. "Life is more important than football."

Derek Chisora has dismissed Tyson Fury’s claims he rejected £2million for their trilogy fight, claiming “the guy is bi-polar”.
Fury claims he offered Chisora’s management team £2million to face him again and then confirmed his retirement when he turned him down.
Chisora feels this is just a smokescreen from the WBC heavyweight champ and says he has already signed to fight the winner of Anthony Joshua ’s rematch with Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed crown.
The former world heavyweight title challenger does not believe Tyson’s claims that he has quit and is adamant he will fight again.
“The guy is bi-polar bro, that’s all I can say,” said Chisora, who is out in Jeddah, supporting his pal Joshua. “He doesn’t know what he wants to do.
“We will see him fight again, but I don’t know if it will be against me.
“The Saudis have a two-fight deal with AJ, Usyk and Fury. This and then the winner fights Fury for undisputed.”
Fury claimed on social media that he wants to fight Chisora again at Old Trafford and he has already beaten him in 2011 and 2014.
The Gypsy King said: “I see Derek Chisora has been having a little pop, licking his wounds after losing £2million.
“God Almighty! What a mistake! You’re probably going to get £375,000 for your next fight and your management team turned down £2million.”
Chisora is with Joshua’s management team, 258 MGT, and he has told his mate he can only beat Usyk by stopping him.
He feels Joshua has no chance of regaining his WBA Super, IBF and WBO belts if he tries to outbox Usyk like he did when he lost their first fight 11 months ago.
“It has to be a knock-out,” he said. “It won’t be on points, it has to be a knock-out.
“I showed you can cause Usyk problems, but you have to be fit, you have to go to the other side.
“He’s going to have to go there to get his titles back.”
Chisora has seen Joshua in the gym under his new trainer Robert Garcia and says he is more aggressive.
“You only have to look at his public work-out this week and his last one to see the difference,” he said.
“This time he’s more intense, he wants to hurt him. There’s more aggression now and you’re going to see that on Saturday.”
“Listen, he’s worked hard, he’s kept himself away from everything, he knows what he did wrong on that night so he’s coming to come back and sort it out.
“He wants to put things right.” | https://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/other-sport/boxing/tyson-fury-branded-bi-polar-27760850 | 2022-08-17T09:15:06Z | https://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/other-sport/boxing/tyson-fury-branded-bi-polar-27760850 | false |
A Glasgow Gumtree scammer conned a couple couple out of £11,000 after selling them her dead partner's mobility car - as she 'had to pay for his funeral'.
Gemma McGregor's partner Matt Quinn died of cancer. Mr Quinn used a mobility car and, after his passing, McGregor put an advert for the vehicle on Gumtree; an online buying and selling platform.
McGregor, 32, claimed she owned the car. John and Alison Harris responded to the advert and forked out £11,00 for the vehicle. The motor was in fact owned by Motability UK who had leased it to Mr Quinn - not McGregor.
The sale was therefore fraudulent and the victims were conned at a property in Maryhill on August 24, 2018. McGregor pled guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to a single fraud charge.

The court heard Mr Harris spotted the online ad and made an arrangement to view the vehicle. The couple were met with a man and there was “no mention” of why the vehicle was being sold.
A fee of £11,000 was agreed for the purchase and the couple then met McGregor whose bank account was to receive the cash. Several days later, Mr Harris discovered that he did not receive a log book for the vehicle and contacted Arnold Clark.
He spoke to employee Cheryl Quinn who was able to confirm that the vehicle belonged to her uncle. Miss Quinn contacted McGregor to ask about the vehicle’s whereabouts.
She was told by McGregor that the company who owned the vehicle collected it two weeks previous.
Prosecutor Leo McGinn added: “She denied knowledge of the Gumtree advert.”
Miss Quinn then contacted the company who also denied knowledge of the pick up. The company later attended and uplifted the vehicle and the police were contacted.
McGregor later handed herself and was arrested.
Bob McDowall, defending, told the court: "The couple were out of pocket and this is a serious matter. It was a reckless fraud and it was doomed to fail.
"She was in serious financial difficulties at the time with rent arrears and eviction being threatened. Her partner Mr Quinn had just died of cancer and she had a funeral to pay costing £4,200."

Sheriff Diana McConnell told McGregor that the matter was "serious."
She added: "These people were frauded out of a considerable sum of money. I am told about your financial situation but I wonder what financial situation the Harris family are in since you frauded them of the considerable sum."
McGregor was ordered to do 270 of unpaid work and tagged for 162 days keeping her indoors between 7pm and 7am.
She was also put under supervision for two years.

'Complete nonsense' if RAF is 'pausing job offers for white men' over 'impossible' diversity targets, Javid says
The alleged move has prompted the head of recruitment for the Royal Air Force (RAF) - herself a senior female officer - to resign in recent days in protest.
Wednesday 17 August 2022 10:07, UK
Sajid Javid has said it would be "complete nonsense" if the RAF has placed an "effective pause" on offering jobs to white male recruits in favour of women and ethnic minorities.
It comes after defence sources told Sky News on Tuesday that the head of RAF recruitment had resigned in protest at the move which aims to hit "impossible" diversity targets.
The senior female officer apparently handed in her notice in recent days amid concerns that any such restrictions on hiring, however temporary and limited, could undermine the fighting strength of the Royal Air Force (RAF), the sources said.
The defence sources accused Air Chief Marshal Sir Mike Wigston, the head of the RAF, of appearing willing to compromise UK security at a time of growing threats from Russia and China in pursuit of albeit important goals such as improving diversity and inclusion.

An RAF spokesperson disputed the allegations.
But former cabinet minister Mr Javid said organisations should not be recruiting on the basis of race.
"I don't think any organisation, whether it's the RAF or any other public or private organisation, should be recruiting on the basis of one's race," he told Sky News.
"Of course, we want to see a diverse workforce, we want to see all talents come through.
"And I happen to think having more diversity actually increases the productivity of your workforce.
"But it should not be based on race - whether it's black, white or anything."
An RAF spokesperson said: "There is no pause in Royal Air Force recruitment and no new policy with regards to meeting in-year recruitment requirements.
"Royal Air Force commanders will not shy away from the challenges we face building a service that attracts and recruits talent from every part of the UK workforce.
"As with the Royal Navy and British Army, we are doing everything we can to encourage recruiting from under-represented groups and ensure we have a diverse workforce.
"The Royal Air Force has a well-earned reputation for operational excellence that is founded on the quality of all our people. We will always seek to recruit the best talent available to us".
Also responding to questions from Sky News on the issue, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Defence said: "Operational effectiveness is of paramount importance and no one is lowering the standards to join the Royal Air Force.
"The RAF recruits for many professions and, like the rest of the armed forces, is determined to be a force that reflects the society it serves to protect."
Neither spokesperson addressed the resignation of the head of RAF recruitment.
The RAF does not typically comment on individuals.

RAF recruits shouldn't worry about passing fitness tests if they are tech fit, says military chief
Successive governments have been challenging all three armed services - the RAF, the army and the Royal Navy - for years to improve their diversity statistics in what has traditionally been a predominantly white, male profession.
It is a goal championed by defence chiefs.
Senior leaders appear to be prioritising diversity over operational needs, according to defence sources.
They said the RAF's recruitment arm has effectively been told to take a pause on offering jobs to white male recruits in the hope that more slots can be filled by women and ethnic minorities during this financial year.
"We are all really pro-diversity and we want to see better representation across the services but... levels of ambition for ethnic targets... are absolutely crazy," one of the sources said.
"There is no scientific or cultural background to these particular levels of ambition."
Another source called the diversity targets "impossible".
The MoD has announced it aims to increase the ratio of female recruits coming into the armed forces in general to 30% by 2030 from around 12%.
The RAF - which was the first of the services to open all roles to women and already has the highest ratio of females - is aiming to go further. It wants the ratio of female air force recruits to hit 40% by the end of the decade - more than double the current level.
The target for ethnic minorities is to reach 20% of all air force recruits within the same timeframe, up from around 10%. | https://news.sky.com/story/complete-nonsense-if-raf-is-pausing-job-offers-for-white-men-over-impossible-diversity-targets-javid-says-12674947 | 2022-08-17T09:16:47Z | https://news.sky.com/story/complete-nonsense-if-raf-is-pausing-job-offers-for-white-men-over-impossible-diversity-targets-javid-says-12674947 | true |
Man dies after drawbridge raised while he was walking across
MILWAUKEE (AP) - A Rhode Island man vacationing in Milwaukee fell to his death after a drawbridge was raised while he was walking across it.
Richard Dujardin, 77, of Providence, Rhode Island, was crossing the Kilbourn Avenue Bridge in downtown Milwaukee on Monday afternoon with his wife, according to a Milwaukee County Medical Examiner’s Office report.
Rosemarie Dujardin made it across the bridge, which spans the Milwaukee River, but her husband was about halfway across when it began to open. He grabbed onto a side rail as the bridge sections rose to a 90-degree angle, but he lost his grip and fell about 70 feet (21 meters) to the pavement below, the report states.
He suffered a head wound and was pronounced dead at the scene, investigators said.
The bridge is controlled by the city’s Department of Public Works and its two halves are raised and lowered for boat traffic by someone working remotely who has two camera views of the span. The lights and bells were operational as the two sections were raised and crossing arms came down at each end of the bridge, according to investigators.
Rosemarie Dujardin told investigators that her husband was hard of hearing and wore glasses. The medical examiner’s report said he was looking at an iPad while walking.
Police said in a statement that there is no suspicion of a criminal act, but that the investigation continues. Interim Public Works Commissioner Jerrel Kruschke said the employee who operated the bridge is in his fourth year and has conducted hundreds of bridge openings. He said the employee has been put on leave and offered counseling.
The department said in a statement that about half of the city’s 20 bridges are operated remotely, calling it “a safe and standard industry practice.”

Ask a Trooper: Of hoods and fenders
Published 5:44 pm Tuesday, August 16, 2022
By Sgt. Troy Christianson
Question: Does a person need a hood on a vehicle to drive it down the highway legally?
Answer: No.
• • •
Question: What is the law regarding vehicle fenders and tires sticking out beyond the sides of a vehicle?
Answer: According to Minnesota State Statute 169.734. “Every passenger automobile shall have fenders, or other devices, that are designed to prevent, as far as practicable, water, dirt, or other material being thrown up and to the rear by the wheels of the vehicle.”
So every vehicle MUST have fenders. In reference to wheels sticking out, if the wheels go out beyond the outside of the vehicle, then they would NOT meet the part of “…as far as practicable…”. If someone was to have wider wheels on their vehicle that stuck out past the fender, they would need some type of fender flare added on.
You can avoid a ticket — and a crash — if you simply buckle up, drive at safe speeds, pay attention and always drive sober. Help us drive Minnesota Toward Zero Deaths. If you have any questions concerning traffic related laws or issues in Minnesota send your questions to Sgt.

BANGKOK, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Thailand, a long-standing leading producer, and net exporter of food is gearing up to provide the world with volume and nutritive quality in a sustainable manner, and to meet global consumer demand for unique tastes with its food of the future offerings.
The country promotes itself as the "Kitchen of the World' on account of its strength in the food industry, arising from its abundant natural resources, continuing investment in food innovation and commitment to food safety standards. In 2021, Thailand ranked 13th largest food exporter in the world, with exports valued at USD30.5 billion.
However, the country is not resting on its laurels and is pushing ahead to meet the growing global demand for healthier food, and so-called food of the future, such as plant-based proteins and meat alternatives. Presently, Thailand is the world's 25th largest exporter of alternative proteins, with USD1.21 billion worth of food of the future in the first quarter of 2022, up 26% on year. Major markets include US, China and Vietnam.
With an increasing number of conglomerates, SMEs and food tech start-ups entering this segment, Thailand's future food offering is increasing in both quantity and quality. To compete producers not only aim to create the taste and texture of traditional meat products but also explore the use of new primary ingredients such as chickpea, mushrooms, and barley instead of soy, corn and wheat. Exotic seasonings from fruits, spices and herbs are inventively added to make future food products from Thailand stand out.
Smith Taweelerdniti, the producer of Let's Plant Meat said the key to success is to find a balance in the flavor, health and environmental benefits. "Whoever that could skew the consumer demand toward more sustainable and more healthy, I think, is a boon for the planet," he said in an interview to CNBC Asia. "It's about creating the flavor and aroma, this is the key."
Scaling up innovation is part of the Thai government's plan to promote the sector as a key economic driver. Thaifex, the largest food and beverage trade show in Asia steadily offers food innovators chances to showcase their ideas. A food tech team from Bangkok's Chulalongkorn University won the ASEAN Food Innovation Challenge 2021 with "The Marble Booster", plant-based Wagyu-style marbled-meat slices infused with immune-boosters, turmeric and black-pepper extracts. The product will soon be sold at convenience stores.
Thailand's other alternative proteins, namely edible insects, a well-known local delicacy, and protein sourced from insects have long made inroads into markets including US, UK, Germany, and South Korea. Popular insects like crickets and grasshoppers are used as ingredients in preparations including canned food, pastry and candy. As growing concerns about food security and sustainability are boosting global demand, Thailand aims to step up sales of edible insects and insect protein powders and its current rank of 17th largest exporter of live insects.

‘Walk them out, shoot them': Russian soldier tells how he was ordered to execute innocent civilians in Ukraine while officers looted washing machines and loaded them onto trucks home
- Daniil Frolkin, 21, wants his commanders jailed for sending troops to their deaths
- He told how his battlefield commanders ordered him to slaughter civilians
- Colonels often faked successful operations to impress defence chiefs, he said
- Frolkin - now back in Russia and resigning from the army - admitted he could face jail due to his admissions
A young Russian soldier has openly confessed how he shot civilians dead and looted their possessions as Vladimir Putin's troops invaded the country before resigning.
He also told how his battlefield commanders ordered him and others to slaughter innocent Ukrainians in horrific alleged war crimes on the orders of his superiors.
Daniil Frolkin, 21, a Russian soldier, who spent five months in the war, admitted to journalists for iStories media: 'We are allegedly trying to liberate civilians from fascism.
'But we kill civilians. What's the point of continuing this war?'
He gave chilling details to journalist Yekaterina Fomina of how 'my commanders told me: "Those are the ones to be shot".
'So I went and shot them. The order was given by Lt Colonel Andrey Prokurat.
Apart from Prokurat, he identified Colonel Azatbek Omurbekov, already known as the 'Butcher of Bucha', whose forces are accused of using rape as a weapon of war, as giving the order.

The former Russian soldier who spent five months in the war admitted to journalists at iStories media that his battlefield commanders ordered him to slaughter Ukrainian civilians
'These men were brought in, and he said: "Take them somewhere, and shoot them".
They had a pack of cash on them: [Ukrainian] hryvnia, dollars, a big pack. This Lt Colonel took the money.
'They also gave us their documents and phones, and said: "Walk them out, shoot them, destroy their phones and their documents".'
He told how he had sought a way out of Putin's killing machine army but initially to no avail.
He told how one commander looted refrigerators, clothes and trainers from Ukraine, sending lorry loads of stolen goods to Russian ally Belarus.
'I don't know who we're fighting against, probably against [Ukrainian army],' he said.
'But they're not Nazis, they are Slaviс people like we are….
'When we talked to locals in villages they said: "We've never had Nazis."
They were mostly pensioners who had moved to Ukraine from Russia, he said.
He dramatically confessed to journalists: 'I - a serviceman from military unit 51460, guard corporal Daniil Andreyevich Frolkin - plead guilty to all the crimes I committed in Andriivka [village].'
This included 'the execution of civilians, robbing [them], stealing their phones.'
Lt Colonel Andrey Prokurat gave the order to execute Ukrainian civilians in the village of Andriivka. Frolkin also named Commander Azatbek Omurbekov, pictured right, as behind the massacre of Ukrainian civilians. He is known as the 'Butcher of Bucha' for the massacres carried out in Ukrainian villages around Kyiv
Graves are uncovered in Andriivka village on April 11, where Frolkin says he was ordered to execute innocent civilians

He insisted that 'our [Russian] commanders do not give a f*** about our soldiers' and committed war crimes to gain medals and please their top brass.
He admitted stealing a phone from a Ukrainian and taking pictures of invading Russian soldiers.
This phone was later found after the Russians withdrew and contains sensational first hand evidence of the alleged war crimes by Putin's forces.
He named Russian commanders linked to his 64 Motorized Rifle Brigade who he said were guilty of war crimes.
He claimed the colonel faked successful operations to impress defence chiefs. He cowered in cellars while sending out his troops into harm's way.
'When we stayed in Andreevka he sat in the basement all the time,' said Frolkin.
'We were not treated as people, we were just thrown into fights.'
Frolkin, from Altai region in Siberia, accused chief of intelligence, Lt Colonel Denis Romanenko, of sending his own forces to their deaths, and demanded a probe into other commanders.
The soldier admitted stealing a phone from a Ukrainian and taking pictures of invading Russian soldiers. The device was later discovered by the Ukrainian army
Pictured with other soldiers, he said he had initially sought a way out of Putin's killing machine army but initially to no avail
'Please punish these commanders,' he said, saying he had gone public in the hope of triggering action against them and sending them to jail.
Yet his hopes for a 'furore' in the army are unlikely since Russian defence chiefs are unlikely to admit the atrocities.
Frolkin claimed that one civilian he killed had been passing details of the Russian military location to the Ukrainians.
'We had 18 wounded because of him, one gravely wounded with his balls shot off by shrapnel,' he said.
'He was begging us "Guys give me a machine gun please, I'll shoot myself, I don't want to go back to my wife like this".'
Frolkin said: 'I told [the informer]: 'On your knees.' And just a bullet in the forehead.
'I was shaking for a very long time. I understood if I kill one more, I kill myself. I couldn't take one more life on my conscience.
Frolkin, 21, confessed to media outlets and said his commanders should be prosecuted. He said he realises he could face jail time both for his actions and his confessions
'I killed one, but I wanted to save as much as possible. I want to save my guys.'
Frolkin - now back in Russia and resigning from the army - admitted he could face jail due to his admissions.
More than 400 mutilated, tortured and murdered corpses were discovered in Bucha days after reports emerged of widespread war crimes in the Kyiv suburb as Russian troops withdrew.
Omurbekov, known as the 'Butcher of Bucha' for the alleged crimes, was promoted from Lieutenant Colonel to full Colonel.
It came despite his men standing accused of gang rapes, tortures and civilian executions.
Soon after receiving the honours, the unit was then redeployed to the eastern Donbas front, one of the most dangerous in the conflict. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11119175/Russian-soldier-tells-ordered-execute-innocent-civilians-Ukraine.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-17T09:31:54Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11119175/Russian-soldier-tells-ordered-execute-innocent-civilians-Ukraine.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true |

HANGZHOU, China, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Ricardo Tormo Circuit, one of Spain's most renowned and prestigious motor racing tracks, implemented Hikvision's artificial intelligence-enabled DeepinView cameras and wide-angle PTZ cameras to ensure track safety and manage races more efficiently.
The challenge: Ensuring track safety and fair play for a risky sport at a large venue
Motor racing is a high-risk sport. Amid all the excitement surrounding the event lies an inherent danger that could harm everyone involved – drivers, marshals, and even spectators. With the Federation Internationale de l'Automobile's requirements on track safety steadily increasing, Circuit Ricardo Tormo, located in Cheste, Spain, decided to overhaul its existing raceway video system which had become outdated in its detection of unsafe driving and inspection of breaches. To upgrade its race management system, Circuit Ricardo Tormo needed to replace legacy cameras with advanced, high-precision cameras that capture vehicles at speeds over 300 kilometers per hour, and to do so with maximum sharpness and without "trails" which are false 'shadow' of the cars, due to the fast moving action.
In addition, it was essential that the cameras are able to capture all activities at any point on the circuit, both on the track and its surroundings, as well as in the pit areas. A recent host of the official Ferrari Challenge championship, the Ricardo Tormo Circuit covers a total of 1.5 million square meters and boasts an impressive capacity of 120,000 spectators, 60,000 of which are seated. With such an expansive area and enormous crowds, eliminating blind spots to ensure complete coverage of the entire site was another challenge for the circuit.
Moreover, the overhaul had to be completed before the Grand Prix Motorcycle World Championship took place, which was only one month away at the time. To achieve their goal, Ricardo Tormo Circuit collaborated with Hikvision and Portillo Telecomunicaciones, a system integrator. Working together closely, the two companies ensured that the implementation was completed on time, and all the circuit's needs were addressed.
The solution: Hikvision's wide-angle and artificial intelligence-enabled cameras
To cover expansive areas, dozens of 2 MP IP PTZ Cameras (DS-2DF6A236X-AEL) were installed at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit. These cameras feature rapid pan and tilt speeds and an expansive 360-degree field-of-view with quick and accurate focusing. With these, staff can zoom in on an object in the far distance while ensuring clarity in the details. The cameras are also equipped with DarkFighter and rapid focus technologies, which provide high quality video imaging in very low light conditions.
To address the difficulties in detecting abuses of track limits – the boundary lines on the circuit that specify the areas on the track where drivers are permitted – 2 MP DeepinView ANPR Moto Varifocal Box Cameras (DS-2CD7026G0) are installed. These cameras capture 60 images per second (60 fps) and feature a 12-50 mm lens with DC auto-iris for precise long-distance focusing, which make them capable of keeping up with the motorcycles' speeds, accurately detecting track limit-breaching when it occurs.
To improve track safety, the race management team guided the artificial intelligence enabled DeepinView cameras in "learning" various object and activity classifications, and to give warnings when detecting aberrant activity. In the event of an accident, Mobile Outdoor Dome Network Cameras (DS-2XM6522G0-I) which have been specially designed for portable video are used by the mobile units to record rescue operations.
In addition to the cameras, an LCD wall made of twelve 55-inch LCD screens was implemented to visualize data and display video footage. Hikvision's HikCentral Professional video management software platform was used for central management, information sharing, convenient connection, and multi-service cooperation.
The benefits: Safer tracks and improved race management
Race track safety has been significantly improved since the Hikvision products were installed. Enabled with deep learning capabilities, the DeepinView cameras easily identify aberrant activities such as vehicles moving in opposite directions, personnel straying into unauthorized areas, foreign objects on the race track, stalled vehicles, and more; and trigger automated warnings. Additionally, staff can easily zoom in on the scene of an accident using the PTZ cameras, view close-ups with high-definition detail, and provide the rescue team critical information.
The Hikvision solution has also made race management easier and more efficient in general. With the PTZ cameras' precise long-distance focusing capability and quick pan-and-tilt mechanism, staff can monitor the whole circuit for overall situational awareness and zoom in on specific incidents when necessary. The cameras' high framerate enables raceway managers to capture the exact movements of a motorcycle, no matter how fast it is moving. Therefore, violations of on-track rules, such as abusing track limits, moving under braking, overtaking at no overtaking zone, etc., are detected much more easily. Therefore, decisions on penalties can be made more quickly and accurately. With the huge 600-inch LCD wall, the staff can keep an eye on multiple race tracks at the same time, and get the most out of the available information on one large screen, and thus manage races on a whole new level of safety and efficiency.

South Korean founder of failed Terra coin admits he was 'wrong'
Issued on: Modified:
Seoul (AFP) – The co-founder of the failed Terra cryptocurrency, which collapsed and wiped out about $40 billion of investors' money in May, has admitted he was "wrong", but said that he was not talking to South Korean investigators.
The dramatic disintegration of stablecoin TerraUSD and its sister token Luna -- which both dropped to nearly zero in value -- hit the wider crypto market, sparking over $500 billion in losses.
Stablecoins are designed to have a relatively stable price and are usually pegged to a real world commodity or currency.
Many retail investors lost their life savings when Luna and Terra entered a "death spiral" and collapsed, and South Korean authorities have opened multiple criminal probes into the crash.
In his first public comments since, Do Kwon, the 31-year-old South Korean founder of Terraform Labs, spoke to crypto media start-up Coinage from Singapore, saying the collapse had been "brutal".
"I think in terms of healing wounds, the best that I can do is to just be upfront with everything that happened. You know, just admit that I was wrong," Kwon said.
South Korean prosecutors last month raided the home of Do Kwon's co-founder Daniel Shin as part of a probe into allegations of illegal activity behind Terra's collapse.
Authorities have also banned key former and current employees of Terraform Labs from leaving the country -- and have required Kwon to notify them when he returns.
But Kwon said in his interview that he had not been contacted by the prosecutors, and has not decided whether he would return to South Korea to cooperate.
"It's kind of hard to make that decision, because we've never been in touch with the investigators," he said, adding: "They've never charged us with anything."
'Cautionary tale'
Do Kwon and Terra are a cautionary tale for the crypto market.
TerraUSD was once the fourth-largest stablecoin and the 10th-largest cryptocurrency by market value, according to CoinMarketCap.
Unlike other stablecoins backed by real world assets like cash, TerraUSD was algorithmic -- using code to maintain its price at around one US dollar based on a complex system of minting and burning.
A TerraUSD token was created by destroying some of the sister cryptocurrency Luna to maintain the dollar peg.
To maintain demand for Terra, Terraform Labs started offering eye-watering interest rates, which many critics derided as a Ponzi scheme.
When the TerraUSD crashed, investors panicked and tried to pull out their money, causing a vicious, self-perpetuating bank run.
Many experts had predicted precisely this eventuality, saying the model was fundamentally flawed.
"If demand falls away, then the price will go to zero," Hilary Allen, a professor of financial regulation at the US-based American University, told AFP.
"This is a characteristic of almost all cryptoassets, and so Terra/Luna should be seen as a cautionary tale for all crypto investors."
Ponzi scheme
Prior to the May crisis, Kwon had two starkly different reputations, depending on who you asked: he was either a genius mastermind, or the head of a Ponzi scheme.
A Stanford graduate from South Korea who had done stints at Microsoft and Apple, Kwon frequently belittled critics online who expressed doubt over his algorithmic stablecoin model.
When British economist Frances Coppola tweeted that self-correction mechanisms -- used by TerraUSD -- will fail when panicking investors are stampeding for the exit, Kwon tweeted back: "I don't debate the poor on Twitter."
Cory Klippsten, CEO of crypto trading app Swan.com said the structure of the Terra system "constituted an actual Ponzi scheme".
"I believe Do Kwon and Terraform Labs committed fraud and should be prosecuted in multiple jurisdictions," he told AFP.
In the interview in Singapore, Kwon said he still believes in Terra.
Just weeks after the coin failed he launched a fresh iteration dubbed Terra 2.0, but its value dropped quickly from as high as $11 to $2.
"I'm always going to be doing things on Terra and for the Terra community," Kwon said. "This is my home and this is where I feel like there's the brightest future."
But with multiple lawsuits and investigations pending, analysts say Kwon's next projects are unlikely to succeed.
"Do Kwon's name basically now carries negative goodwill," said Kelvin Low, a law professor at the National University of Singapore.
"His involvement in a project hurts rather than helps it."

BERLIN (AP) — Germany's chancellor said Wednesday that he was “disgusted by the outrageous remarks" made by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Berlin, accusing Israel of committing “50 Holocausts” against Palestinians over the years.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's statement on Twitter came a day after Abbas refused to condemn a deadly attack by Palestinian militants on Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics. Instead, Abbas countered by saying he could point to “50 Holocausts” by Israel.
“I am disgusted by the outrageous remarks made by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas,” Scholz said. “For us Germans in particular, any relativization of the singularity of the Holocaust is intolerable and unacceptable. I condemn any attempt to deny the crimes of the Holocaust.”
Scholz was criticized both in Germany and Israel for not rejecting Abbas' comments immediately at the press conference he held with him on Tuesday night at the Chancellery.
Standing next to Scholz, Abbas explicitly used the word “Holocausts” in his reply, drawing a grimace from the German chancellor. Germany has long argued the term should only be used to describe the Nazis’ singular crime of killing 6 million Jews before and during World War II.
While Scholz had earlier rejected the Palestinian leader’s description of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians as “apartheid,” he did not immediately rebuke Abbas for using the term “Holocaust.”
Abbas said that “from 1947 until today, Israel has committed 50 massacres in 50 Palestinian villages."
“Fifty slaughters. Fifty Holocausts,” he added.
During the Third Reich, the Germans and their henchmen murdered 6 million Jews across Europe.
On Wednesday, Abbas appeared to walk back his comments.
In a written statement, his office said that “President Mahmoud Abbas reaffirms that the Holocaust is the most heinous crime in modern human history.”
The statement stressed that “his answer was not intended to deny the singularity of the Holocaust that occurred in the last century, and condemning it in the strongest terms.”
Abbas's remarks drew strong condemnation by leaders across Israel's political spectrum. Caretaker Prime Minister Yair Lapid called the comments, “not only a moral disgrace, but a monstrous lie.”
Dani Dayan, chairman of the Yad Vashem World Holocaust Remembrance Center, had called Abbas's remarks about the Holocaust “appalling" and urged the German government to respond to the “inexcusable behavior done inside the Federal Chancellery.”
The remarks came a few weeks before the planned commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Munich attack, in which Palestinian militants killed 11 members of the Israeli Olympic team. Relatives of the slain Israeli athletes said they plan to boycott the ceremony after failing to reach an agreement on bigger compensation from the German government.
Germany's leading Jewish group also sharply criticized the comment and expressed shock that Scholz did not repudiate Abbas' comment immediately.
Abbas “tramples on the memory of six million murdered Jews and damages the memory of all victims of the Holocaust,” said Josef Schuster, the head of the Central Council of Jews in Germany. "Such statements cannot be left uncommented. That a relativization of the Holocaust, especially in Germany, at a press conference in the Federal Chancellery, goes unchallenged, I consider scandalous.”

EXCLUSIVE-China's EVE to supply BMW with large Tesla-like cylindrical batteries in Europe -sources
Updates with EVE response
SHANGHAI, Aug 17 (Reuters) - China's EVE Energy Co Ltd 300014.SZ will supply BMW BMWG.DE with large cylindrical batteries for its electric cars in Europe, two people with knowledge of the matter said, as the German automaker follows Tesla Inc TSLA.O in adopting the new technology.
EVE has signed contracts to be BMW's primary supplier of the battery cells in Europe for its new series of electric vehicles due to hit the market from 2025, said one of the people who has direct knowledge of the deal.
Tesla this year started manufacturing its new larger-format 4680 cylindrical battery - denoting 46 millimetres in diameter and 80 millimetres in length. It has said it expects the battery to lower production costs and improve range compared to the current-generation 2170 cylindrical battery.
Guangdong-based EVE's batteries will be similar in size, said the sources, who were not authorised to speak to media and declined to be identified.
Company filings also show EVE is planning a large cylindrical battery plant in central China.
EVE, a supplier to BMW in China, did not directly address Reuters queries when asked for comment. BMW said it plans to release some battery-related news in early September but declined further comment.
The shift by BMW, which currently uses prismatic batteries, underscores growing momentum for larger-format cylindrical batteries. Prismatic batteries, which are rectangular in shape, have become the most common form of auto battery in the past two years as they can be more densely packed, saving on costs. But proponents of cylindrical batteries argue the newer larger format cells have become more cost-effective due to improvements in energy density.
China's CATL 300750.SZ, the world's largest battery maker, is also due to start supplying cylindrical batteries to BMW from 2025.
Expectations are high that these batteries will also be large-sized cells. CATL did not respond to a request for comment on planned dimensions.
It was not immediately clear how many batteries BMW plans to procure from EVE and CATL.
EVE's deal with BMW prompted the Chinese company to announce in March that it would build a cylindrical battery production facility in Debrecen, Hungary - its first plant in Europe, according to the person with direct knowledge of the deal.
BMW is also constructing a plant in the same city where it plans to produce EVs developed on its Neue Klasse platform.
Government incentives are driving demand for EVs in Europe and the United States, spurring Chinese battery and EV makers to accelerate plans to set up production bases overseas.
CATL announced last week it would build Europe's biggest battery plant with annual capacity of 100 gigawatt hours, also in Debrecen, to supply European automakers. Mercedes-Benz will be its largest client.
With much of fresh battery demand likely to be for large cylindrical cells, Chinese battery makers which have relied on a huge domestic market where prismatic cells reign, will have to change tack like EVE and CATL, said Duan Bing, an analyst at Nomura.
Eve, founded by lithium-ion battery researcher Liu Jincheng in 2001 and also a supplier to Xpeng Inc 9868.HK, is a much smaller player than CATL. It ranks eighth with 2.3% market share in China, according to data from the China Automotive Battery Innovation Alliance.
By comparison, CATL makes 47.6% of the total batteries installed in EVs in China.

SHENYANG, Aug. 17 (Xinhua) -- Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, on Tuesday inspected the city of Jinzhou, northeast China's Liaoning Province.
Xi visited the Liaoshen Campaign Memorial and a forest park in Jinzhou, looking back into the history of the liberation of northeast China and the Liaoshen Campaign, one of the major campaigns during the War of Liberation more than seven decades ago.
He was also briefed about the province's efforts of flood control and ecological restoration and conservation, and made instructions on how to improve flood control work and sharpen the capacity to prevent natural disasters.

The realization came as a shock to Héloïse Luzzati. How could she have spent the better part of three decades playing music without every studying a piece composed by a woman?
As her gigs dried up at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and concert halls around the world went dark for months, the French cellist dedicated much of her time to remedying that gap. "The role of women in the history of music began to gain a certain importance in my life as a musician," the French cellist told NPR. "We don't know enough works composed by women. My aim is to increase the percentage of known works written by female composers."
She unearthed manuscripts by the likes of Mel Bonis (1858-1937), Clémence de Grandval (1828-1907) and Rita Strohl (1865-1941). In many cases, these pages of music had simply been sitting in a trunk in the attic, preserved by the composers' own descendants.
Luzzati has a hard time picking just one piece as her favorite. "There [are] so many. I cannot answer this question," she said. "I ask myself, how could I [not] know this piece?"
Many of these works had never been published or recorded before, and yet to Luzzati they shined like priceless jewels. Her project quickly grew from a set of online biographical videos to a virtual advent calendar featuring recorded performances, a festival with top soloists at châteaux and other historic sites near Paris — and now a new record label.
La Boîte à Pépites (The Jewel Box) aims to "exhume pieces that seem worthy of a good position in the standard musical repertoire," Luzzati explained. The label's first release, launched in France in April and set for September 30 in the UK, is centered around French composer Charlotte Sohy, who died in 1955.
"I was completely captivated by this music," said Luzzati, who gave a special nod to what she considers a "masterpiece," the Op. 24 piano trio.
"It's completely specific as French music from the beginning of the 20th century — sometimes impressionistic, sometimes figurative, with colors of Ravel, Chausson or Debussy."
The rich harmonies also come from someone who faced tremendous odds, having survived two world wars, mothered seven children and cared for a conductor-composer (Marcel Labey). At times, she composed under a male name — that of her grandfather, Charles Sohy — or just used the abbreviation Ch. Sohy "to bypass the prejudices about women," Luzzati explained. And yet her catalogue includes 35 opuses. She studied under composer Vincent d'Indy, himself a student of César Franck.
A three-CD boxset — also available on streaming platforms — features world premieres of Sohy's piano, chamber and orchestral works. Among the soloists are rising and veteran stars of the classical world in their own right, including David Kadouch, Xavier Phillips, Célia Oneto Bensaïd and Marie-Laure Garnier. The Quatuor Hermès recorded Sohy's first two quartets and the Orchestre national Avignon-Provence took up orchestral works under the baton of Debora Waldman.
It all began when Waldman introduced Luzzati to Sohy's grandson François-Henri Labey. Since retiring from directing regional conservatories about a decade ago, Labey has copied his grandmother's handwritten work in digital format on a computer. He's said that he stumbled upon her "Grande Guerre" (Great War) Symphony in C sharp minor in the bottom of a drawer. In 2019, Waldman led the Orchestre Victor-Hugo Franche-Comté in the posthumous world premiere of the work, composed during World War I. Sohy was informed of her husband's death on the battlefield while writing the second movement, only to learn a week later that he was found alive.
Luzzati is intransigent in her selection both of the pieces and performers put forward via her project, a charitable organization run by musicians. Violinist Renaud Capuçon and pianist Bertrand Chamayou are among the internationally renowned musicians who have joined the effort. Rather than simply performing a piece because it was composed by a woman, Luzzati and her fellow artists work together to breathe life into some of the most accomplished works by a composer who happened to be a woman.
"We want this music to exist for the future and for the young generations too," she explained. "We don't want to rewrite the story of the music. We want to add the women who count in the story."
Gender inequality is still prevalent in the music industry today. While there are growing efforts to promote music by composers of underrepresented genders and backgrounds, only 5% of compositions scheduled to be performed by 100 orchestras worldwide in the 2020-2021 season were written by women, according to the UK-based foundation Donne.
Historically, much of this music has been overlooked — if not dismissed entirely — by music directors, and even teachers. Music students, from their very beginnings to advanced studies at top conservatories, are still largely taught music composed by white men who have been dead for decades if not centuries.
Some women gained wide acclaim during their lifetimes, especially in the late 19th century. Virtuoso pianist Louise Farrenc (1804-1875) was a prolific composer and the only female professor of music to teach at the Paris Conservatory in that century. But she was quickly forgotten after her death, despite her work being published.
"So there you go. It's as simple as that. When a composer dies and she's no longer there to keep her work alive, it disappears almost instantly," Luzzati said.
Her group has also spotlighted living composers, like Ethiopian nun Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou or Alicia Terzian of Argentina. There are also new arrangements, such as one of a song by Barbara, who started out as a cabaret singer before writing her own tunes.
And Luzzati only just got started. She's setting her sights next on music publishing — blowing the dust off old manuscripts so that the works can be played by students and soloists alike. If she succeeds, the ripple effect could have a long lasting impact on the classical music industry.

Hill brothers look forward to lone season together at City View
Mason Hill knows what it’s like to be a freshman playing a significant role on a varsity football team.
He experienced it just three years ago with the City View Mustangs. And he’s been able to impart his experience on the handful of freshmen who have been in that position for the Mustangs since then.
But Hill hasn’t been as invested in any of those freshmen as he is the guy currently lining up to his left.
That’s because this freshman is also his little brother, Blaine.
“It’s a great feeling,” Mason said. “I just want to make sure he knows what’s going on. It’s pretty sentimental, I’m not gonna lie. I’m not going to be here after this year. I plan to be off playing college football, so to get this one year with him is pretty cool.”
Of course, there’s a third Hill in the mix.
Doug Hill has been a fixture on the City View staff as a defensive line coach and has both his sons as part of his position group.
“When they were young, sometimes they would look at me like I didn’t know what I was talking about,” Doug said. “I think it took them getting to this level that I do know a bit about football.
“I’m just sitting back and enjoying this time together. We’ve got a good thing going here at City View, and I’m glad they get to be a part of it together.”
It’s the first time the Hill brothers have really had the chance to play together. They were on the same peewee team when Mason was in fourth grade and Blaine was in second, but the younger Hill didn’t find a lot of playing time back then.
Currently, the Mustangs have Mason lining up at left guard and Blaine manning left tackle. Mason has played center in the past and could still end up at the position as the coaching staff tries to find the right spot for everyone.
Doug got to watch his sons on the field together in a game scenario for the first time Friday in City View’s scrimmage against Anson.
“That was a lot of fun to just sit back and watch them play side by side,” Doug said. “I won’t get to do that too often in a real game, so it was nice to just enjoy it at the time.”
Like most brothers, the Hills are very competitive with each other.
“Whatever it is, I won,” Blaine chimed in.
“OK, when did that happen,” Mason asked.
“All the time,” Blaine responded.
“More like never,” Mason said.
“There are more than a few holes in the wall at the house from their wrestling matches,” Doug said.
There might be a few in the City View field house, too.
“We all have watched those two kids grow up around here,” City View head coach Rudy Hawkins said. “When they were young, we were kind of encouraging the wrestling matches, telling them that one said something about the other. It was all in good fun.
“It’s amazing to see what those two kids have grown up to become. They’re big and athletic. But they’re also great kids from a great family.”
Mason has set a standard for the Hill name at City View. He’s a state medalist in powerlifting and shot put, plus a two-time Red River 22 selection on the offensive line.
It’s not lost on the younger Hill that he’s got big shoes to fill once his brother is gone. But Blaine has the right combative response to how he’s going to emerge from his brother’s shadow.
“I’m going to be better than him,” Blaine laughed. “I think there is some pressure there. He’s been great at a lot of things, but I know I’ve got it in me to be that good and better.”
OFFENSE
The Hill brothers are just two pieces of a massive offensive line that also includes senior Keaton Wilson (6-4, 280).
“It’s the biggest offensive line we’ve ever had here at City View,” Hawkins said. “And these guys aren’t just big. They’re good athletes who can move.”
That size sets up for an increased role from junior tailback Jeremiah Durham, who rushed for 795 yards and 11 TDs last season. Durham has great speed, finishing second in the 100 meters at May’s Class 3A state track meet.
Ki’Auntrae Gresham will also get some carries.
Kendrick Gibson Jr. and Desmond Whiteside are two quality weapons at receiver, but who will throw them the ball is still in question.
Javier Ortiz and Jacobe Monroe will compete up until at least Week 1 for the starting quarterback role.
DEFENSE
There may not be a bigger void to fill in the area than that of Jourdain Durham at linebacker. Durham became the second four-time Red River 22 honoree during his senior year and was a one-man tackling machine.
It’s going to be a committee effort for the Mustangs to replace him, including Gresham.
The defensive line is probably a strength for the Mustangs, including the Hill brothers, Wilson and others.
Gibson will play an expanded role on defense, lining up in the secondary and linebacker. Whiteside gives the Mustangs another good athlete in the secondary.
EXTRA POINT
Hawkins is entering his 12th season as the Mustangs’ head coach. While he was already the longest tenured by a significant margin, Hawkins will have more seasons leading the Mustangs under his belt than the three other head coaches (Lonnie Hite, Charles Hicks, Eugene Wilton) the program has had since it was started in 2000.
City View Mustangs
Head Coach: Rudy Hawkins (12th year)
Last year’s record: 4-7
Returning starters: 9 offense, 9 defense

BEIJING (AP) — The world’s two biggest emitters of greenhouse gases are sparring on Twitter over climate policy, with China asking if the U.S. can deliver on the landmark climate legislation signed into law by President Joe Biden this week.
After Congress passed the bill last Friday, U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns took to Twitter on Sunday to say the U.S. was acting on climate change with its largest investment ever — and that China should follow.
On Tuesday night, China’s Foreign Ministry responded with its own tweet: “Good to hear. But what matters is: Can the U.S. deliver?”
The exchange, part of a longer back and forth on Twitter on the issue, is emblematic of a broader worry: U.S.-China cooperation is widely considered vital to the success of global efforts to limit rising temperatures. With the breakdown in relations over Taiwan and other issues, some question whether the two sides can cooperate.
China announced a suspension of talks with the U.S. on climate and several other issues earlier this month as part of its response to a visit to Taiwan by a senior American lawmaker, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Climate has been one of the few areas of cooperation between the feuding countries. U.S. officials criticized China’s move, with Secretary of State Antony Blinken saying it “doesn’t punish the United States — it punishes the world.”
Asked to respond, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian called on the U.S. last week to “deliver on its historical responsibilities and due obligations on climate change and stop looking around for excuses for its inaction.”
The ministry later tweeted some of his answer, and Burns responded four days later with his tweet on the U.S. climate bill. Using the acronym for the People’s Republic of China, he ended with: “The PRC should follow+reconsider its suspension of climate cooperation with the U.S.”
China elaborated on its “Can the U.S. deliver?” message with a second tweet that suggested U.S. actions, including lifting sanctions it imposed last year on solar industry exports from China’s Xinjiang region because of allegations of forced labor.
The back and forth highlights a perception divide between the longstanding superpower that wants to lead and the rising power that no longer wants to feel bound to follow anyone else’s direction.
U.S. climate envoy John Kerry has been pushing China to set more ambitious climate goals. China’s response has been that its goals are realistic, given its development needs as a middle-income country, while the U.S. sets ambitious goals that it fails to achieve.
China’s ruling Communist Party generally sets conservative targets at a national level, because it doesn’t want its performance to fall short. Those targets are sometimes exceeded, though, in the eager pursuit of those goals by local officials.
“China should be able to do better than its national targets indicate,” said Cory Combs, a senior analyst with the Trivium China consultancy. “But of course, those local plans are all subject to failure and delays, so it’s impossible to tell quite what they’ll add up to.” | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation/china-and-us-spar-over-climate-on-twitter/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_nation-world | 2022-08-17T10:15:00Z | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation/china-and-us-spar-over-climate-on-twitter/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_nation-world | true |

Human-animal conflict in Assam: Three people trampled to death by elephants
Another case of human-animal conflict was reported from Assam where three villagers were trampled to death by a group of elephants in Goalpara district.

Guwahati: In a tragic incident, three villagers, including a mother and her four-year-old son were killed when they were trampled by elephants in Lakhipur in Goalpara district of Assam near the border with Meghalaya on Monday.
The victims were identified as Sarati Lama (29), her son Sasit Biswakarma (4) and another villager, Bhim Kumar Rai. The three villagers were killed near Rongsai.
According to a report in the Times of India, the incident occurred when a herd of elephants entered the village at around 3 am on Monday. This created a lot of commotion as villagers came out in large number to prevent the elephants from entering their village. In the ensuing confusion the three victims were killed when they were chased down by the herd of elephants and trampled, Dhruba Dutta, range forest officer, Lakhipur, said.

This incident is the latest in a series of such Human-elephants conflict (HEC) in the Lakhimpur forest range which has already reported 12 human deaths this year alone in such a conflict, particularly in Golapara area.
According to Dutta, intrusions by elephants in the area is a regular occurrence as they regularly intrude villages in search of food due to increasing deforestation in the area.
In the last 10 years, 930 people have died as a result of elephant attacks in the state of Assam, with Golapara itself recording 118 of these deaths. The human-animal conflict is often escalated by the encroachment of wildlife territory by humans or the shrinking food zones for the animals who often end up straying in human settlements in search for sustenance.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — The San Diego Padres have replaced a planned Fernando Tatis Jr. bobblehead night with a Juan Soto T-shirt giveaway after the superstar shortstop was banned 80 games Friday following a positive test for a performance-enhancing drug.
Tatis, a 23-year-old sensation and one of the brightest stars in all of Major League Baseball, was on the cusp of returning to the Padres from a broken wrist that had sidelined him all season. He was on track to rejoin the team well before the Sept. 7 bobblehead night — until the positive test.
Instead, the Padres will offer fans shirts in the club’s City Connect color scheme with Soto’s name and No. 22 on the back before they play the Arizona Diamondbacks. The team announced the change Tuesday.
Soto, also 23 and one of baseball’s most well-known young faces, was acquired from the Washington Nationals in a blockbuster deadline deal Aug. 2.
The Padres’ City Connect jerseys, which they wear for Friday night home games, feature vivid colors that celebrate the cross-border culture of San Diego and Tijuana.
MLB said Tatis tested positive for Clostebol, an anabolic steroid. Tatis said he accidentally took a medication to treat ringworm that contained the banned substance. Several teammates were critical of Tatis following Friday’s announcement, including pitcher Mike Clevinger, who talked about being “disappointed” in Tatis and hoping the shortstop realizes “it’s about more than just him right now.”

Mother claims she was denied abortion despite baby’s fatal condition
BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB/Gray News) - A Louisiana mother has a week to make an unthinkable decision about whether she should carry her baby to term, even though she says doctors tell her it will not survive.
Nancy Davis is 13 weeks pregnant with her second child. She got her first ultrasound at Woman’s Hospital in Baton Rouge when she was 10 weeks pregnant. She and her boyfriend were excited to welcome their new baby but soon learned the pregnancy would not go the way they planned, WAFB reports.
“It was an abnormal ultrasound, and they noticed the top of the baby’s head was missing and the skull was missing. The top of the skull was missing,” Davis said.
Davis says her baby was diagnosed with acrania, a rare and fatal condition where the baby’s skull fails to form in the womb. According to health experts, babies with this condition only survive minutes to hours after birth.
“It’s hard knowing that I’m carrying it to bury it. You know what I’m saying?” Davis said.
But because her life was not in danger and the baby’s condition does not fall under Louisiana Department of Health’s list of qualifying conditions, Davis was denied an abortion.
She is now faced with a tough decision: carry the baby to term or cross state lines to get an abortion. She says she needs to make a decision quickly since other states allowing abortion cut off eligibility at 15 weeks.
“Florida is the closest, so ideally Florida. But then the next closest place would be North Carolina or something,” Davis said.
Without taking a position on abortion, Davis says she thinks state lawmakers need to consider broadening the list of conditions that qualify for an abortion in the state.
“I just want them to consider special circumstances as it relates to abortion. Medical problems like this is one that needs to be in that,” she said.
Davis said her family is sticking close and will support whatever decision she makes. She’s also willing to testify before the legislature to shine more light on this issue.
Because of patient privacy laws, a spokeswoman for Woman’s Hospital said they could not comment.

Syria denies it is holding American journalist Austin Tice
DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) - Syria denied on Wednesday it is holding U.S. journalist Austin Tice or other Americans after President Joe Biden accused the Syrian government of detaining him.
The Syrian Foreign Ministry said in a statement that Damascus “denies it had kidnapped or is holding any American citizen on its territories.”
“The U.S. issued last week misleading and illogical statements by the American president and secretary of state that included baseless accusations against Syria that it had kidnapped or detained American citizens including former U.S. Marine Austin Tice,” the statement said.
Biden’s comments last week came in a statement released by the White House to mark the 10th anniversary of Tice’s abduction, which took place when he was in Syria covering its lengthy conflict. Biden’s remarks were the clearest indication so far that the U.S. is certain Tice is being held by the government of President Bashar Assad.
Tice went missing shortly after his 31st birthday on Aug. 14, 2012 at a checkpoint in a contested area west of the capital Damascus. A video released a month later showed him blindfolded and held by armed men, saying “Oh, Jesus.” He has not been heard from since.
Tice is one of two Americans who went missing in Syria. The other is Majd Kamalmaz, a psychologist from Virginia, who vanished in Syria in 2017.
Tice is from Houston and his work had been published by The Washington Post, McClatchy newspapers and other outlets. He went to Syria to cover the conflict that started in 2011. The war has left hundreds of thousands dead and displaced nearly half of the pre-conflict population of 23 million. More than 5 million of those are outside the country.

Your own tenpin bowling alley for $820,000
Investors looking to add a unique property to their portfolio could be tempted to strike a deal on this tenpin bowling alley.
The 14-lane lane facility in Grafton, on the State’s north coast, has been listed for sale with a price guide of $820,000.
Located opposite the local racecourse and greyhound track, the popular spot comes complete with cafe, commercial kitchen, liquor licence and its own gaming arcade.
It been attracting interest from potential buyers both locally and from Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne either to run as a business or hold as an investment.
“It appeals to a very niche market so generally they take a little longer to move, but we have had consistent enquiries on it,” says agent Harrison Tory from Ray White Grafton.
“It is something incredibly difficult to price, obviously people are looking at the turn over generated and their return on their investment.”
According to CoreLogic RP Data, a bowling alley at Lismore sold for $1.4m in November last year. It was positioned on almost 5000sqm with prime highway exposure and in Lismore’s industrial/retail precinct.
The Grafton site is set on a 3916 sqm parcel of land and comes with a 67 space car park with potential to further develop or expand the site – subject to approval.
The property deal is a ‘walk in, walk out’ sale and includes the land, building and the equipment needed to operate such as pins and bowling balls.
Tory says the bowling alley has an active and loyal customer base with ongoing events, functions and bookings.
“It has been there a long time – I’m 26 years old and I remember coming to the bowling alley as a teenager when we moved to the area – everyone knows it and has their own memories there,” Tory says.
The site also includes a pro shop, multiple store rooms, workshop and office space.
Its current owner discovered a hidden retro mural above the lanes, believed to date back to the mid-80s, when he started operating the business.
“There was a big partition across there which he had never peaked under – he ended up getting it pulled down and a big mural was there which he has left exposed,” Tory says.
The site, located in Powell Street, has an ‘open space’ zoning making possible a number of other commercial and recreational applications.
