Bernie Ecclestone, 91, denies charge of fraud 'over failure to declare £400m of assets held in Singapore bank after claiming he had only set up single trust fund abroad for his daughters'
- Ecclestone faces fraud charge by false representation between 2013 and 2016
- He allegedly claimed he had 'established only a single trust' for his daughters
- The 91-year-old arrived with wife, 45, at Westminster Magistrates Court today
Former Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone has denied fraud over an alleged failure to declare to the Government more than £400 million in a trust in Singapore.
The 91-year-old was charged after a probe by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), which would have allowed the business magnate to draw a line under any previous tax irregularities, Westminster Magistrates' Court heard.
He is accused of failing to declare a trust in Singapore with a bank account containing around 650 million US dollars.
According to the charge, the business magnate allegedly claimed that he had 'established only a single trust, that being one in favour of your daughters'.
He is also alleged to have said 'other than the trust established for your daughters you were not the settlor nor beneficiary of any trust in or outside the UK'.
Ecclestone, who has three grown-up daughters - Deborah, 67, Tamara, 38, and Petra, 33 - and a young son, Ace, allegedly made the representations 'intending to make a gain, namely not stated, for yourself'.
The billionaire was met by photographers and camera operators, who had been warned by police not to mob him because of his age, as he entered court on Monday morning.

Ecclestone was escorted through the building's exit by court security along with his legal team.
Chief Magistrate Paul Goldspring allowed him to stand outside the dock after his barrister, Clare Montgomery QC, said her client was 'having a little bit of trouble hearing'.
Ecclestone stood to confirm his name and address in Knightsbridge, central London, before indicating a not guilty plea to a charge of fraud by false representation between July 13 2013 and October 5 2016.

Prosecutor Robert Simpson told the court: 'This charge arises out of a Revenue and Customs (HMRC) investigation into Mr Ecclestone's finances.
'This would have allowed him to enter into a structural disclosure facility which would've drawn a line under any previous tax irregularities.
'During the course of that investigation he was asked about any trusts placed abroad that he was involved with.
'The Crown has based this charge on the basis he failed to declare a trust in Singapore with a bank account containing approximately 650 million US dollars.'
Ecclestone was granted unconditional bail ahead of his next appearance at Southwark Crown Court on September 19 during the hearing, which lasted around five minutes.

The judge told him: 'Given the value of the alleged fraud, if convicted, this court would not have sufficient sentencing powers.'
The charge against the billionaire was authorised by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) last month following an investigation by HMRC, which said the probe had been 'complex and worldwide'.
Chief Crown Prosecutor Andrew Penhale said at the time: 'The CPS has reviewed a file of evidence from HMRC and has authorised a charge against Bernard Ecclestone of fraud by false representation in respect of his failure to declare to HMRC the existence of assets held overseas believed to be worth in excess of £400 million.' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11133887/Bernie-Ecclestone-indicates-not-guilty-plea-charge-fraud-failure-declare-400m.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-22T10:18:35Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11133887/Bernie-Ecclestone-indicates-not-guilty-plea-charge-fraud-failure-declare-400m.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false |
A strong cup of builder’s tea in a solid mug, with a couple of doorstop slices of toast with lashings of butter slapped on is probably not the sort of food served in this tea room. No, tea served here is going to be altogether more refined, dainty and maybe a bit more royal-like?
The restaurant is on the Highgrove Estate, in Tetbury, which is the home of Prince Charles and it is looking for waiting staff. Imagine what a lovely place this would be to work at.
Tourists and nosey-parkers pour through the gates for what is ostensibly a garden tour, but in reality a wish to see the heir to the throne tending to his holly hocks. Highgrove recruiters describe the restaurant as ‘fast-paced’, so you are going to have to be quick on your feet.

Gross margin improved year-over-year to 22.1% from 21.2 %
GUANGZHOU, China, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Viomi Technology Co., Ltd ("Viomi" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: VIOT), a leading IoT @ Home technology company in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
Second Quarter 2022 Financial and Operating Highlights
- Net revenues reached RMB924.2 million (US$138.0 million), compared to RMB1,658.9 million for the second quarter of 2021.
- Gross margin increased to 22.1% from 21.2% for the second quarter of 2021.
- Number of cumulative household users reached approximately 7.2 million, compared to approximately 6.9 million as of the end of the first quarter of 2022 and approximately 5.9 million as of the end of the second quarter of 2021.
- Percentage of household users with at least two connected products reached 22.0%, compared to 21.8% as of the end of the first quarter of 2022 and 20.7% as of the end of the second quarter of 2021.
Mr. Xiaoping Chen, Founder and CEO of Viomi, commented, "In the second quarter, we continued to execute our high-quality business operation strategy: (i) continue to streamline SKUs and optimize our product mix; (ii) focus on core business and product lines to build best-selling products; and (iii) implement cost control and efficiency improvement measures in production and supply chain. These efforts led to the ongoing optimization of our business operation with gross margin increasing by about 1% year-over-year, representing consecutive year-over-year improvement since the fourth quarter of 2020. Despite COVID-19 recurrences and weak consumer spending exerting considerable pressure on our sales, we made significant progress in product innovation, channel optimization and strategic cooperation alongside the development of our one-stop IoT home solutions, further solidifying the foundation for our long-term product enhancement and branding influence."
"First, with respect to our products, we introduced a series of new AI products at our strategic new products launch event in March, including Space Pro, our all-space AI air conditioner featuring formaldehyde removal; Boss, our large-screen refrigerator with AI fitness functionality; our Royal series of AI laser interactive smart screens incorporating 4K UHD display; Super 2, our 2000G super large-flux water purifier which generates ultra-micro bubbles to remove pesticide residues; and our Royal series of AI twin-tub washing machines. Among them, the air conditioner, water purifier, and interactive smart screen came to market in the second quarter. We also introduced a series of new smart home devices, such as EyeLink, our smart lock with upgraded 3D facial recognition technology, as well as HomePad Plus, our AI screen-based control interface for managing all smart home appliances across scenarios. These new AI-equipped products provide our consumers with a superior smart home experience and have received favorable market feedback and reviews."
Mr. Chen added, "Furthermore, sales growth and product influence among our mid- to high-end products are also increasing. During the recent domestic '618' shopping festival, some of our mid- to high-end products topped the e-commerce sales charts in their respective categories, such as our Space series of air conditioners, Super series of water purifiers and 21Face AI large-screen refrigerators. Meanwhile, based on our one-stop IoT home solutions, we are accelerating the implementation of our premium bundled home solution offerings across the nation. After our offline merchants signed whole-home solution orders ranging from RMB200,000 to RMB400,000 with customers in Beijing, Guangzhou, Changsha and Kunming in the first quarter, our offline merchants in Chengdu, Zunyi, Yinchuan and some other cities followed suit, recording multiple high-end whole-home solution orders exceeding RMB200,000 and RMB300,000 in the second quarter. Our consumers' recognition and adoption of our premium AI products and our bundled home solution offerings are a testament to the success of our phased transformation into a premium brand and our investment in R&D for our AI products."
"Second, we continued to execute our 'larger store, better merchant' channel strategy. In the second quarter, we cooperated with our newly signed offline merchants and opened additional Viomi 4S and 5S flagship stores in provinces including Hunan, Anhui and Guizhou, etc. These flagship stores enhanced our 'trending technology' branding positioning through unified storefront decoration and immersive scenario experience, and helped implement our one-stop IoT home solutions."
"Third, to support the release of premium new products and our high-end brand transformation, we continued to enhance our brand promotions in the second quarter. In addition to the launch of a large number of elevator and print ads, we reached more targeted young groups by partnering with Tmall and becoming the co-sponsor of the well-known variety show 'Design Ideal Future' broadcasted on the Mango TV platform, exposing a growing audience to our immersive smart home experience across whole-home scenarios and bringing an intelligent lifestyle to more young consumers," Mr. Chen commented.
"In addition, we continued to deepen our strategic cooperation with more channels in the second quarter to promote the integrated and development of the smart home industry. In the first half of this year, we reached partnerships with JD.com, Tmall and China Telecom. We are exploring strategic cooperation with additional channels and companies to create a more convenient and smart living experience and promote the development of smart home ecology for families."
"We successfully navigated the challenges caused by the pandemic and the weak macro industry environment in the first half of the year, and made progress in developing new products and enhancing brand awareness. As we progress through 2022, we will continue to focus on product innovation and product portfolio optimization, devoting more resources to improving product competence while implementing more disciplined cost and expense control measures to lay a solid foundation for long-term healthy growth," Mr. Chen concluded.
Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results
REVENUE
Net revenues were RMB924.2 million (US$138.0 million), compared to RMB1,658.9 million for the second quarter of 2021. Net revenues were in line with the Company's previous guidance. The decline was mainly due to (i) the complete cutoff of sales of Xiaomi-branded sweeper robots this year, as well as its high prior-year base for comparison, and (ii) the ongoing product portfolio adjustments in some categories.
- IoT @ Home portfolio. Revenues from IoT @ Home portfolio decreased by 54.2% to RMB524.5 million (US$78.3 million) from RMB1,146.3 million for the second quarter of 2021. The decline was primarily due to the complete cutoff of sales of Xiaomi-branded sweeper robots, as well as SKU adjustments for some categories.
- Home water solutions. Revenues from home water solutions decreased by 17.4% to RMB180.9 million (US$27.0 million) from RMB218.9 million for the second quarter of 2021. The decline was primarily due to the decreased demand of water purifiers.
- Consumables. Revenues from consumables decreased slightly by 1.9% to RMB100.3 million (US$15.0 million) from RMB102.2 million for the second quarter of 2021.
- Small appliances and others. Revenues from small appliances and others decreased by 38.1% to RMB118.5 million (US$17.7 million) from RMB191.5 million for the second quarter of 2021, which was primarily due to the product portfolio adjustment within this category, as well as the decreased demand of small appliances products.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit was RMB204.5 million (US$30.5 million), compared to RMB351.8 million for the second quarter of 2021. Gross margin increased to 22.1% from 21.2% for the second quarter of 2021, primarily driven by the Company's continued efforts to shift the business and product mix toward higher gross margin products, and partially offset by decreases in selling prices of some products for clean-up due to the product portfolio adjustment in the quarter.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Total operating expenses decreased by 14.6% to RMB264.6 million (US$39.5 million) from RMB309.7 million for the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to the year-over-year decrease in selling and marketing expenses.
Research and development expenses increased by 20.4% to RMB79.7 million (US$11.9 million) from RMB66.2 million for the second quarter of 2021, mainly due to the increase in research and development experts and related salaries and expenses, as well as the increased input in new product development.
Selling and marketing expenses decreased by 24.6% to RMB162.0 million (US$24.2 million) from RMB214.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, mainly due to the decrease in marketing expenses, partially offset by the increased expenses on advertising activities that enhance the Company's branding recognition.
General and administrative expenses decreased by 20.3% to RMB22.9 million (US$3.4 million), compared to RMB28.8 million for the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to the decrease in estimated allowance for accounts and notes receivables recognized in the current period.
LOSS FROM OPERATIONS
Loss from operations was RMB55.6 million (US$8.3 million), compared to income from operations of RMB47.2 million for the second quarter of 2021.
Non-GAAP operating loss[1] was RMB49.9 million (US$7.5 million), compared to non-GAAP operating income of RMB60.6 million for the second quarter of 2021.
NET LOSS
Net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company was RMB39.6 million (US$5.9 million), compared to net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company of RMB46.1 million for the second quarter of 2021.
Non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company[2] was RMB33.9 million (US$5.1 million), compared to non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company of RMB59.5 million for the second quarter of 2021.
BALANCE SHEET
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of RMB816.3 million (US$121.9 million), restricted cash of RMB46.8 million (US$7.0 million), short-term deposits of RMB10.0 million (US$1.5 million) and short-term investments of RMB237.0 million (US$35.4 million), compared to RMB587.0 million, RMB35.8 million, nil and RMB828.9 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2021.
OUTLOOK
For the third quarter of 2022, the Company currently expects:
- Net revenues to be between RMB740 million and RMB840 million.
The above outlook is based on the current market conditions and reflects the Company's current and preliminary estimates of market and operating conditions and customer demand, all of which are subject to change.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company, non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ordinary share and non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per American depositary share ("ADS"), which are non-GAAP financial measures, in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. Non-GAAP operating income is income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income is net income excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company is net income attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses. Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ordinary share is non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of ordinary shares used in the calculation of non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ordinary share. Non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS is non-GAAP net income attributable to ordinary shareholders divided by weighted average number of ADS used in the calculation of non-GAAP basic and diluted net income per ADS. The non-GAAP adjustments do not have any tax impact as share-based compensation expenses are non-deductible for income tax purpose.
The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business by excluding the impact of share-based compensation expenses, which are non-cash charges, and these measures provide useful information about the Company's operating results, enhance the overall understanding of the Company's past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company's management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as alternative to income from operations, net income, or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. Investors are encouraged to review the historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company's data. We encourage investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. Reconciliations of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included at the end of this press release.

This announcement contains currency conversions of RMB amounts into U.S. dollars ("US$") solely for the convenience of the reader.

Arkansas: Three officers suspended after video shows beating
By Alex Binley
BBC News
- Published
Three Arkansas law enforcement officers have been suspended after a video emerged showing a suspect being pinned to the ground and repeatedly beaten.
One of the officers repeatedly punches the man in the head and even bashes his head against the pavement.
Another officer repeatedly knees the man in the back. Both are dressed in the uniform of the Crawford County Sheriff's office.
A police officer restrains the man on the ground while this takes place.
As he is being beaten, the man covers his head with his hands and appears to be trying to roll up into a ball to protect himself.
The video has been viewed millions of times on social media and sparked outrage.
One Twitter used alluded to the case of George Floyd, a black man who was murdered in police custody in 2020, leading to worldwide protests.
How, after George Floyd, can this happen? Three police officers beating a suspect with so much force. If this wasn't captured on video, these officers would have told a very different story.

A woman who is not seen in the video can be heard saying: "Don't beat him! He needs his medicine!"
One officer responds with an expletive while another orders her to get in her car.
The person who posted the video online said her sister witnessed the altercation in the town of Mulberry.
State police identified the man who was arrested as 27-year-old Randall Worcester.
Mr Worcester was accused of making threats in a shop on Sunday morning.
Police said that when officers confronted him, he pushed a deputy to the ground and punched the back of his head, leading to the arrest seen in the video.
The suspect was taken to hospital and faces terroristic threatening, resisting arrest and other assault charges, police said.
On Sunday evening, Crawford County Sheriff Jimmy Damante said two county deputies will be suspended while Arkansas state police and his office carry out separate investigations into what happened.
"I hold all my employees accountable for their actions and will take appropriate measures in this matter," Mr Damante said.
In a statement released Sunday evening, Mulberry Police Chief Shannon Gregory said the officer involved in the incident is on leave pending the outcome of the investigation.
"The city of Mulberry and the Mulberry police department takes these investigations very seriously," Ms Gregory said.
Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson said on Sunday night on Twitter that the "incident in Crawford County will be investigated pursuant to the video evidence and the request of the prosecuting attorney". | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-62630034 | 2022-08-22T10:30:01Z | https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-62630034 | false |
‘Professors of Practice’ | Varsities to hire experts as 10% faculty; degree, publications not mandatory
New DelhiADVERTISEMENT
Universities and higher education institutions will soon be able to hire distinguished experts as faculty members under a new category for which formal academic qualification and publication requirements will not be mandatory.

The decision was taken by the University Grants Commission (UGC) in its 560th meeting last week and the scheme — “Professors of Practice” — is likely to be notified next month.

According to the approved draft guidelines of Professors of Practice accessed by PTI, experts from fields such as engineering, science, media, literature, entrepreneurship, social sciences, fine arts, civil services, and armed forces among others will be eligible to be hired.
“Those who have proven expertise in their specific profession or role with at least 15 years of service or experience, preferably at a senior level, will be eligible for Professors of Practice. A formal academic qualification is not considered essential for this position if they have exemplary professional practice in lieu,” read the guidelines, which are likely to come into effect from the upcoming academic session.

“These experts will also be exempted from the requirement of publications and other eligibility criteria stipulated for the recruitment of faculty members at the Professor level.
“However, they should possess the skills to carry out the duties and responsibilities,” according to the guidelines.
The Commission has decided that the number of Professors of Practice in a higher education institution (HEI), at any point in time, should not exceed 10% of the sanctioned posts.
The faculty members under the scheme will be engaged in three categories — Professors of Practice funded by industries, Professors of Practice engaged by HEIs from their own resources and Professors of Practice on honorary basis.
“The engagement of Professors of Practice will be for a fixed term. Their hiring will be exclusive of the sanctioned posts of a university or college. It will not affect the number of sanctioned posts and the recruitment of regular faculty members. The scheme will not be open for those in teaching position — either serving or retired,” it said.

A consolidated amount, mutually agreed between the institution and expert will be paid as remuneration for those hired in the category.
“The engagement may be initially for up to one year. At the end of initial engagement or subsequent extension, the HEI will make an assessment and take the decision about extension. The HEI will devise its own assessment procedure for extension based on the contribution and requirement of the experts engaged as Professors of Practice.
“The maximum duration of service of Professor of Practice at a given institution should not exceed three years and is extendable by one year in exceptional cases and the total service should not exceed four years under any circumstances,” the document read.
Involvement in the development and designing of courses and curriculum, introducing new courses and delivering lectures according to institutional policies, encouraging students in innovation and entrepreneurship projects and providing necessary mentorship for these activities are among the duties and responsibilities defined for Professors of Practice.
They will also focus on enhanced industry-academia collaborations, conduct workshops and seminars jointly in collaboration with regular faculty, deliver special lectures and training programmes and carry out joint research project or consultancy services in collaboration with the regular faculty members of the concerned HEI.
“The Vice-Chancellors and Directors may invite nominations from eminent experts for Professor of Practice positions. The experts willing to serve may also be nominated or they can send their nomination to the Vice-Chancellors with a detailed biodata and a brief about their potential contribution to the HEI.
“Such nominations will be considered by a selection committee consisting of two senior Professors from the HEI and one eminent external member. Based on the recommendations of this committee, the Academic Council and the Executive Council or statutory bodies of the HEI will decide on the engagement,” it said.

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) — Jorge Mateo lined a bases-loaded double to left field in the eighth inning, driving in three runs and sparking the Baltimore Orioles to a 5-3 win over the Boston Red Sox on Sunday night in front of hundreds of cheering Little League World Series players from around the world.
Mateo kept the Orioles 2 1/2 games behind in the race for the final AL wild-card spot, and Baltimore won the fifth MLB Little League Classic in front of former President George W. Bush and a sellout crowd of 2,467 fans at historic Bowman Field. Bush shook hands with Orioles and Red Sox players and went into the stands to meet Little Leaguers and their families.
The kids went wild when Mateo ripped a shot off John Schreiber for the three-RBI double and a 5-2 lead. Matt Barnes (0-4) took the loss.
Red Sox pinch-hitter Franchy Cordero hit a tying solo homer off reliver Dillon Tate in the eighth that made it 2-all. Cordero had been called up for the game from Triple-A Worcester.
Cionel Pérez (7-1) earned the win in relief. Félix Bautista gave up a solo homer to Xander Bogaerts in the ninth, but still picked up his eighth save.
Among the fans were the father, brother and teammates of injured Utah Little Leaguer Easton Oliverson. The 12-year-old seriously injured his head when he fell out of his top bunk in the dorms. Jace Oliverson, the boy’s father, said Easton was expected to fly back Tuesday to Utah and will remain in a hospital there.
“I’m just grateful that he’s still alive because I was pretty much told he had a zero percent chance to live,” Oliverson told The Associated Press. “We feel very fortunate.”
The rest of the day featured the usual revelry now associated with a game in which millionaire big leaguers get to act like kids for a day. Orioles manager Brandon Hyde and Red Sox manager Alex Cora both took cardboard rides down the outfield hill outside the Little League World Series stadium. So did stars for both teams.
The front-row seats behind the dugouts belonged to 12-year-olds dressed in full uniform and hanging on every pitch — well, at least when they didn’t chase the team mascots for photos or storm the concourse between each inning in hopes of having a major leaguer toss them a ball.
“It’s really just seeing the pure emotions from everybody, all the smiles on kid’s faces,” Orioles outfielder Ryan McKenna said. “There were a bunch of kids that wanted autographs. I told them, ‘what’s up?’”
Not much once the game started.
Anthony Santander and Ramon Urias had RBI singles in the first off Boston’s Nick Pivetta. Pivetta, who took the loss for the Mets in the 2018 Little League Classic, struck out nine over 5 2/3 innings.
Enrique Hernandez made it 2-1 in the second with an RBI single off Dean Kremer.
Teams from Australia, the Asia-Pacific region and all around the globe sat only a relay throw away from Orioles and Red Sox in the type of seats usually reserved at MLB stadiums for deep-pocketed fans.
Graham Vinson, a 12-year-old pitcher/catcher/shortstop, plays for the Little League team out of Hagerstown, Indiana, and, yes, he’s a New York Yankees fan. Vinson snagged a front-row seat and said he’s a big baseball fan who enjoys watching games on TV. But when he wants the latest baseball highlights, well, he checks out TikTok, “especially the Savannah Bananas.” But he said there aren’t a lot of friends his age who watch MLB — though teammate Kaden Hall loves the Cincinnati Reds — and found there are more electronic national pastimes for kids his age.
“It’s all the types of phones and stuff,” Vinson said. “It’s all Xbox and PlayStation and all that.”
That’s one reason MLB launched a game like this one — to try and steady the decline of baseball viewership among today’s kids.
At Williamsport, they watched.
2023 CLASSIC
The 2023 game is already set: the Washington Nationals and Philadelphia Phillies will play Sunday, Aug. 20, in the sixth edition of the game. The Phillies lost to the Mets in the 2018 game.
UP NEXT
Both teams are off Monday.
The Red Sox and Toronto Blues have yet to name starters for Tuesday’s game in Boston.
The Orioles open a three-game series Tuesday at home against the Chicago White Sox. The Orioles send RHP Austin Voth (3-1, 4.86 ERA) to the mound against Chicago RHP Lucas Giolito (9-7, 5.34).

Area around Ukraine nuclear plant hit again despite US pleas
NIKOPOL, Ukraine (AP) - Only hours after the latest international pleas to spare the area around Ukraine’s main nuclear plant from attacks, there were new claims of Russian shelling close to the Zaporizhzhya facilities early Monday.
Nikopol, on the opposite bank of the Dnieper River and about 10 kilometers (6 miles) downstream from the plant, came under fire three times during the night from rockets and mortars, hitting houses, a kindergarten, the bus station and stores, regional governor Valentyn Reznichenko said. Ukraine media reported that four people were wounded.
Reports of sustained shelling around Europe’s largest nuclear power plant further highlighted the dangers of a war that will hit the half-year mark on Wednesday.
After U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres again urged caution during a visit to Ukraine last week, U.S. President Joe Biden further discussed the issue with the leaders of France, Germany and Britain on Sunday.
The four leaders stressed the need to avoid military operations in the region to prevent the possibility of a potentially devastating nuclear accident and called for the U.N.’s atomic energy agency to be allowed to visit the facilities as soon as possible.
Yet, nothing seemed certain in a war that has spread fear and unease far beyond the frontlines in eastern and southern Ukraine and also into the Russia-annexed Crimea peninsula and as far as Moscow, where on Saturday night a car blast killed the daughter of an influential Russian political theorist often referred to as “Putin’s brain.”
On Monday Russian authorities were looking for further clues who could be behind the incident, after authorities said preliminary information indicated 29-year-old TV commentator Daria Dugina was killed by an explosive planted in the SUV she was driving.
A former Russian opposition lawmaker, Ilya Ponomarev, said an unknown Russian group, the National Republican Army, claimed responsibility for the bombing. The AP could not verify the existence of the group. Ponomarev, who left Russia after voting against its annexation of Crimea in 2014, made the statement to Ukrainian TV.
Ukraine officials have denied involvement.
In Crimea, anxiety has spread further following a spate of fires and explosions at Russian facilities over the past two weeks. The governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhaev, ordered that signs showing the location of bomb shelters be placed in the city that had long seemed untouchable.
Monday’s statement follows a series of drone incursions into the Crimean city that is home to Russia’s Black Sea Fleet. A drone exploded at the fleet’s headquarters on July 31 and another was shot down over the HQ last week. Authorities also say air-defense systems have shot down other drones. Razvozhaev said on Telegram that the city is well protected but “it is better to know where the shelters are.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin did not mention Russia’s military operation in Ukraine during a speech marking National Flag Day on Monday, but echoed some of the justifications cited for sending in troops.
“We are firm in pursuing in the international arena only those policies that meet the fundamental interests of the motherland,” Putin said. He maintains Russia sent troops into Ukraine as effectively a protective measure against the encroaching West.
“The desire to live according to one’s will, to choose one’s own path and follow it, has become part of the genetic code of our people,” he said.

As an independent voter, I am very thankful to all the Democrats who worked to pass the Inflation Reduction Act. However, I respectfully disagree with President Joe Biden’s statement that “every single Republican in the Congress sided with the special interests in this vote” (”A look at what’s in the big Biden bill as health and climate goals become law,” Aug. 16).
The legislation was passed using a politically divisive tool called reconciliation. Hence, no one can expect any Republican member of Congress to sign onto something that excluded them from the beginning.
Despite that, there appears to be Republican support for the climate provision as shown by the silence of Republican members. In addition, my Republican friends support these climate provisions — so much so that one of my Republican friends called local Democratic members of Congress to pass climate provisions through reconciliation, as took place.
I am thankful for the Republicans who worked on the bipartisan Infrastructure law (passed last year) and the CHIPS and Science Act (signed into law earlier this month) that will accelerate our path toward clean energy. I also appreciate President Biden and all members of Congress who worked on those two bipartisan bills, and hope that we can have bipartisanship as a core value someday.
We need bipartisan support for anything that needs united action such as mitigating climate change and transitioning to clean energy. Let’s unite toward clean energy transition and stop pointing fingers at who “sided with the American people” and who did not.
We all want what is best for America and we can agree on the need for clean energy transition at every level of our lives. If the U.S. is to lead in clean energy transition, Americans need to work together in implementing the climate provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act. Let’s all be part of the change we want to see and work together to implement those climate provisions.

People posting pictures and videos of themselves partying online has become a political statement for some women.
In social media feeds, women are showing themselves dancing, singing or holding a drink to show their solidarity with Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin. She has been under public scrutiny after videos of her dancing and singing with friends circulated on the internet. Those videos were meant to be private, according to Marin.
"I have a family life, I have a work life and I have free time to spend with my friends. Pretty much the same as many people my age," Marin said, according to the Finnish outlet Yle.
Some criticized her behavior, questioning her maturity and competency. Others called for Marin to take a drug test, which she took on Friday in response to the criticism.
The reaction to Marin's behavior struck a particular chord for some women who feel that in both their personal life and in politics, they are held to an unfair standard.
At Alt for Damerne, a Danish weekly women's magazine, female employees compiled a montage of themselves dancing to show women supporting other women.
"Our first idea was to write a column or editorial but then we thought, let's do this with some kind of humor and show that we all have those clips on our camera roll that wasn't supposed to see the light of day," Editor-in-Chief Rikke Dal Støttrup told NPR.
Støttrup added that Marin's ordeal reminds her of the treatment of Helle Thorning-Schmidt, a former prime minister of Denmark who received criticism over her taste in designer clothes.
Rixt Van Dongera, a public affairs coordinator from the Netherlands, also posted a video of herself at the Lowlands Festival with the caption "#SolidaritywithSanna."

— Rixt van Dongera (@RixtvD) August 20, 2022
"I wanted to support her and all our rights to be an individual next to her extremely busy job and have fun with her friends," she told NPR. "Dancing with your friends should be regarded as a great way to use your free time."
Marin, who is 36 years old, was elected in 2019 — becoming the country's youngest prime minister and the world's youngest serving prime minister.

Vijay Deverakonda, who is currently busy promoting his upcoming movie Liger, recently spoke about the boycott trend that has engulfed Bollywood. He said, “On a film set, in addition to the actors and director, there are 200-300 other people. So a film gives employment to many people...When you decide to boycott a film, you are not only affecting Aamir Khan, you are affecting thousands of families who lose work and livelihood.” — TMS | https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/entertainment/think-of-the-families%E2%80%A6vijay-deverakonda-on-boycott-laal-singh-chaddha-trend-424100 | 2022-08-22T10:42:01Z | https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/entertainment/think-of-the-families%E2%80%A6vijay-deverakonda-on-boycott-laal-singh-chaddha-trend-424100 | true |
Explosions rock Donbas as Russian ammo dump goes up in flames in fresh blow to Putin's 'exhausted' forces almost six months after war began
- Explosions lit up sky in Donetsk after overnight strike on Russian ammo dump
- Russian state media said Ukraine hit 'warehouses', without linking it to military
- It is just the latest arms depot to be hit, after blasts rocked bases in Crimea
- Attacks have badly hurt Russia's ability to wage artillery warfare with Putin's 'exhausted' men struggling to advance six months after war began, experts say
Explosions lit up the early morning sky over Russian-occupied Donbas this morning as yet another of Putin's ammo dumps went up in flames.
Videos captured on the eastern outskirts of the city of Donetsk showed smoke and flames engulfing a set of badly-damaged buildings as the sun came up Monday, with multiple blasts caught on camera.
It is just the latest arms depot to go up in flames after blasts at bases across occupied Crimea that Ukraine says has badly-damaged Russia's ability to fight.
Analysts at the Institute for the Study of War say Putin's 'exhausted' forces are now struggling to make any ground and believe his invasion will soon ground to a halt.
Meanwhile Ukrainian commanders say they are confident in their ability to wear down Russia's army and force it to retreat, as what was supposed to be a days-long 'special military operation' has dragged out into a nearly six-month war.
Explosions tear apart warehouses in Russian-occupied Donetsk this morning as what is believed to be an ammunition dump goes up in smoke
Russian state media has acknowledged the blasts and blamed them on Ukraine, but claimed a series of warehouses was destroyed without mentioning any link to the military
The ammo dump was destroyed as analysts said Russia's 'exhausted' forces are bogged down across the Donbas front, with Putin's invasion close to grinding to a halt
Russian state media has acknowledged the blast in Donetsk and blames Ukraine for carrying it out, but said Kyiv's forces struck 'warehouses' with no mention of a link to the armed forces.
Ukraine has not acknowledged being behind the attack, but it follows a pattern of Russian arms dumps, command posts and key transport links being destroyed in order to halt Russia's advance - and perhaps send it into reverse.
Those strikes have mainly focused on the south, in areas around the city of Kherson and across occupied Crimea.
Three bridges linking Kherson to Russian-occupied territories in the east of Ukraine have been all-but destroyed in recent weeks in what are thought to have been strikes by Kyiv's men using HIMARS.
Blasts have also destroyed or damaged three bases in Crimea - two airfields and an ammo dump - and have also severed bridges across the wider Kherson region.
These have been blamed on Ukrainian saboteurs working behind Russian lines, because they are out of range of Kyiv's missile forces.
Monday's blasts took place hundreds of miles to the east, in Donetsk, where heavy fighting was reported along the frontline at the weekend.
Putin's forces made some gains - capturing the town of Dacha to the west of Donetsk and attacking near Avdiivka - but Ukraine's armed forces said other assaults near Izyum, Siversk and Bakhmut were turned back.
Ukrainian troops fire mortars on the frontlines near the city of Donetsk, where heavy fighting was reported at the weekend
Russian troops are trying to advance across the Donbas, but their progress has been slowed because of attacks on ammo dumps that has limited their ability to use artillery
Ukrainian troops adjust a heavy mortar being used to stop Russian troops from advancing west of Donetsk, where fighting took place over the weekend
Analysts for respected US think-tank Institute for the Study of War wrote: 'Russian forces' momentum from territorial gains around Bakhmut and Avdiivka in late July is likely exhausted.
'Russian attacks in eastern Ukraine are likely culminating although very small Russian advances will likely continue.
'The Russian military has shown a continual inability to translate small tactical gains into operational successes, a failing that will likely prevent Russia from making significant territorial advances in the coming months barring major changes.'
Putin had been hoping for a quick and largely bloodless invasion when he ordered troops across Ukraine's border on February 24, with the main goal being a precision strike on Kyiv to topple the government and install a puppet regime.
But his plans ran into immediate problems when Ukraine put up tougher-than-expected resistance, and convoys heading to Kyiv from Belarus got bogged down.
Faced with the prospect of being surrounded and forced to surrender, Russia beat a retreat from Kyiv and instead concentrated its efforts on seizing Donetsk and Luhansk regions - which together make up the Donbas.
Their efforts in the east have met with marginally more success, including the capture of Mariupol and most of Luhansk - but have still fallen far short of Putin's aim.
Russia is also aiming to hold territory it has captured in southern Ukraine, after a break-out from Crimea early in the war captured swathes of land - including the cities of Kherson, Melitopol, and Berdyansk.
Ukraine is thought to be behind a series of recent blasts at Russian military sites, including in occupied Crimea, where Saki airbase (pictured) was all-but destroyed
A series of explosions damaged two Russian airfields and destroyed an ammunition dump in Crimea, which Putin's forces have occupied since 2014
Ukraine is now attempting to wear down Russian forces to the point where holding territory becomes impossible, which Kyiv hopes will force a wholesale retreat.
That is what lies behind the attacks on bridges, railroads, ammo dumps and command posts, analysts and Ukrainian commanders told the Wall Street Journal at the weekend.
Retired Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges, a former commander of the U.S. Army in Europe, told the paper that Russia's logistics system is 'exhausted' because it was not designed 'to sustain a long conflict outside of Russia'.
Unlike most other modern militaries, Russia is heavily reliant on trains to supply the large amounts of ammunition its forces use to bulldoze through enemy lines so its troops can capture the ruins left behind.
Cutting rail lines and destroying ammo dumps near the front forces Putin's commanders to rely on long-distance truck convoys to move ammo around, hampering its ability to fight.
Maj. Gen. Edward Dorman, the former director of logistics and engineering for U.S. Central Command, added: 'If you can't keep the required inflow of supplies, at some point you have to give ground.
'Wars have been lost because of logistics.'
Natalia Humeniuk, a spokeswoman for the Ukrainian military's Southern Command, suggested that vulnerability is at the heart of Kyiv's plans to recapture territory seized since the start of the invasion - and as far back as the last war in 2014.
Ukraine will not be able to out-match Russia in terms of raw troops numbers, vehicles or firepower - despite mobilising its population and getting supplies from the West, she conceded.
But, by using the weapons and troops it does have to maximum effect, she believes it is possible to defeat the superior enemy.
'There are more of them. They have more weapons. They're more powerful in the air,' Ms. Humeniuk told WSJ.
'So we have to find a way to beat them under these conditions. It's not easy, but it's doable.' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11133797/Ukraine-war-Explosions-rock-Donbas-Russian-ammo-dump-goes-flames.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | 2022-08-22T10:45:15Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11133797/Ukraine-war-Explosions-rock-Donbas-Russian-ammo-dump-goes-flames.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | false |

Indian court moves to settle issues that led to FIFA ban
NEW DELHI (AP) — India’s top court has handed control of the national soccer federation back to its administration in an attempt to get a FIFA suspension lifted. India’s Supreme Court had earlier appointed a three-member committee to manage the affairs of the All India Football Federation and to conduct elections for new office bearers by the end of August under a new constitution. However, that led to FIFA suspending the federation last week “due to undue influence from third parties,” which threatened the country’s hosting of the Under-17 Women’s World Cup next month. The court on Monday scrapped the three-member committee and ordered that the day-to-day affairs of the AIFF be managed by its secretary general, the Press Trust of India news agency reported. | https://kion546.com/news/2022/08/22/indian-court-moves-to-settle-issues-that-led-to-fifa-ban/ | 2022-08-22T11:04:04Z | https://kion546.com/news/2022/08/22/indian-court-moves-to-settle-issues-that-led-to-fifa-ban/ | true |
LONDON (AP) — Prince Andrew will be the subject of a satirical TV musical in the latest season of shows from U.K. broadcaster Channel 4.
Queen Elizabeth II’s second son stood down from royal duties after a disastrous interview in November 2019 discussing his ties with the late child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in a special BBC Newsnight program.
Channel 4 said the interview, widely regarded as a public relations catastrophe for the Duke of York, will be “reimagined” as part of the musical. Critics tore into the prince for appearing to show no empathy for the abused victims of Epstein, who killed himself in prison in August 2019.
Comedian Kieran Hodgson is to lead a cast of comics in “Prince Andrew: The Musical,” a 60-minute program described as a “satirical send-up of the life and times” of the duke set to a musical score.
The show is part of a 40-year anniversary season of shows called “Truth or Dare” for Britain’s fourth TV broadcaster, which launched in 1982. It has not yet been announced exactly when it will air.
Andrew has been in U.K. headlines for years due to his marriage and divorce with Sarah “Fergie” Ferguson.
But he has tried to stay out of the public spotlight after reaching a multimillion-pound settlement last year with a woman who filed a U.S. lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault when she was 17. Andrew was stripped of his honorary military titles in January and told he can no longer use the title “his royal highness.”

House conservatives ready to battle Dems, GOP leaders over vaccine mandates if they take the majority
'I'll believe it when I see it,' Rep. Chip Roy said of GOP leadership pursuing vaccine mandate funding fights
With the Biden administration still pursuing COVID-19 vaccine mandates nearly three years after the start of the pandemic, House conservatives are gearing up for a battle over those mandates from the position of a potential 2023 GOP majority.
The House Freedom Caucus says it plans to make that fight one of its central issues, especially the military mandate. Members say they will use their leverage over must-pass spending bills to force the hands of President Biden, Democrats and their own party leadership.
"In every single spending fight, of which there will be numerous ones … the vaccine mandate … will become a central issue of negotiation," House Freedom Caucus Chair Scott Perry, R-Pa., told Fox News Digital.
Perry said he believes the military vaccine mandate is a "national security" issue, due to declining recruitment. He criticized the Department of Defense for allegedly not handling religious exemption requests in good faith.
BIDEN STILL PUSHING FEDERAL WORKER VACCINE MANDATE DESPITE EASED CDC GUIDELINES
"Punishing our incredible service members because they declined to take an unproven, experimental vaccine was totally wrong," Rep. Lauren Boebert. R-Colo., told Fox News Digital. "In the majority, conservatives will make it a priority to end federal COVID vaccine mandates, reinstate these brave men and women, and ensure they’re made whole."
Rep. Ronny Jackson, R-Texas, said he believes the military mandate is particularly egregious because the military is made up largely of healthy young people. He demanded that Congress fight to give "back pay" and "active duty jobs" to anyone discharged for the vaccine mandate.
A House GOP leadership source said Republicans, including leadership, will aim to use mechanisms like the National Defense Authorization Act or government funding bills to roll back vaccine mandates. This will be on top of aggressive investigations into entities like the CDC over their COVID response, the source said.
However, the GOP leadership source said those efforts may be more effective with a GOP Senate to shift political pressure to the Biden administration in the event of a funding showdown. There may be only so far Republicans can go, particularly if things like military salary or border patrol operations are at stake, the source said.
BOEBERT TAKES SHOT ACROSS GOP LEADERSHIP'S BOW IN CPAC SPEECH: 'DISAPPOINTED TOO MANY TIMES'
"I'll believe that when I see it," Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, said about whether GOP leadership will actually press hard on funding bills. Roy ripped into any Republicans who would cite military or border patrol as a reason to vote for an unfavorable funding bill.
"That is straight up bulls---," Roy said. "Don't allow Republican leadership to hide behind the military and border patrol and cops to say we have to write a blank check for the bulls--- attacking American people."
The margin of a House GOP majority may be key for how much leverage Freedom Caucus members like Roy have in 2023 or how much leeway top Republicans have in trying to push through funding bills over their objections.
But R Street Institute senior fellow for governance James Wallner said such debate is healthy for the party and the country.
"Leadership is in a different position than the Freedom Caucus. They have a different job to do," Wallner said. "I would argue both jobs are absolutely essential."
He added: "You need the Freedom Caucus to push and hold the leadership's feet to the fire. You need the leadership to do the difficult task of forming coalitions and getting people who don't always agree … to come along and actually get those votes."
The November elections are still a few months away, and political headwinds appear to be shifting in Democrats' direction.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Latvia will tear down a Soviet-era monument on Tuesday that commemorates the Red Army's victory over Nazi Germany, authorities said, coming a week after Estonia removed a similar landmark.
Police have erected a yellow fence to cordon off the area near the monument, which stands like a high-rise in downtown Riga's Victory Park. It has an 80-meter (260-foot) concrete spire with a Soviet star on top, with two groups of statues beside the edge of a pond.
The monument, built in 1985 while Latvia was still part of the Soviet Union, will be felled using machinery on Tuesday, said Janis Lange, the Latvian capital's executive director. He told a news conference that it will be toppled without the use of explosives, according to Latvian television.
It wasn't immediately clear what would happen to the monument after it's taken down.
The concrete obelisk is part of a complex that includes two groups of statues — a band of three Red Army soldiers and on the other side a woman representing the “Motherland” with her arms held high. The whole complex will be taken down.
Latvia, which shares a 214-kilometer (133-mile) border with Russia, has a large group of ethnic Russians living in the country. On Russia's annual Victory Day holiday on May 9, they gather in front of the monument to lay flowers with concerts also organized.
The event has caused controversy among people in Latvia, which since regaining independence in 1991 has become a member of NATO and the European Union.
Over the weekend, the Latvian Russian Union said it plans to stage a protest on Monday evening. The group says it has gathered more than 10,000 signatures of people who are against removing the monument, the Baltic News Service said.
But Lange told a news conference Monday that the Riga City Council said it won't issue permission for them to hold a protest.
In May, Lativa's parliament voted to pave the way for the demolition of the monument in the capital and the Riga City Council followed suit.
The Baltic countries have removed many monuments glorifying the Soviet Union or communist leaders.
In 2007, the relocation of a World War II monument of a Red Army soldier in Estonia's capital, Tallinn, sparked days of rioting. Last week, Estonia removed a Soviet-era monument with a tank on top outside the town of Narva in the Baltic country's Russian-speaking east, and moved the tank replica to a war museum north of Tallinn.
Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania have taken a hard-line stance against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Hyderabad: Members of the National Student Union of India (NSUI) were manhandled and detained by the Telangana police on Monday as they protested outside the Jawaharlal Nehru Technical University of Hyderabad (JNTUH).
Sharing a video of the incident on Twitter, NSUI state president Venkat Balmoor asked, “Is Telangana a democratic state or a goonda raj?” He demanded that the Telangana Director General of Police (DGP) take action against the misbehaviour of the police.
“As the President of a respected Students’ Union, I have every right to stand in support of the agitating students & it is unconstitutional for the police to restrict me from doing that,” he stated.
The NSUI organised a peaceful protest outside the JNTUH campus to demand subject exemption and grace marks for group R18 students studying at the university. | https://www.siasat.com/hyderabad-nsui-president-detained-by-police-during-protest-in-jntuh-2395632/ | 2022-08-22T11:13:03Z | https://www.siasat.com/hyderabad-nsui-president-detained-by-police-during-protest-in-jntuh-2395632/ | true |

Cineworld has confirmed reports that it is considering filing for bankruptcy in the US after recovering more slowly than expected from the COVID pandemic.
It was reported last week via a piece in the The Wall Street Journal that the share price of the company had dropped from 20p to 2p, leading to conversations around bankruptcy. Before COVID, it was trading at £1.97.
The London-listed company, which operates 751 sites in 10 countries including the Cineworld and Picturehouse chains in the UK, ran up debt of more than £4billion ($4.8billion) after its cinemas were closed during the global health crisis.
Cineworld has now confirmed that conversations are taking place. In a statement, the company said (via BBC News): “Cineworld would expect to maintain its operations in the ordinary course until and following any filing and ultimately to continue its business over the longer term with no significant impact upon its employees.”
They added that they were considering a ‘Chapter 11’ filing in the US, which allows a company to continue to trade while filing for bankruptcy. They did not comment on claims that they would also make the filing in the UK.
A statement said further: “Despite a gradual recovery of demand since reopening in April 2021, recent admission levels have been below expectations.
“These lower levels of admissions are due to a limited film slate that is anticipated to continue until November 2022 and are expected to negatively impact trading and the group’s liquidity position in the near term.”
After the news broke on Friday (August 19), investors reacting to the news sent the company’s market value plunging to less than £50million ($59million), having been valued at as much as £4.4billion ($5.1billion) before the pandemic took hold.
Unions representing Cineworld’s 45,000 global workforce, including more than 5,000 in the UK, have reacted to the news.
“This is very worrying news, not least for the UK’s Cineworld and Picturehouse workforce who have already been through a tumultuous time during the pandemic,” said Philippa Childs, the head of the UK union Bectu [via The Guardian]. | https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/film/cineworld-confirms-that-it-is-considering-filing-for-bankruptcy-in-us-3294940 | 2022-08-22T11:21:19Z | https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/film/cineworld-confirms-that-it-is-considering-filing-for-bankruptcy-in-us-3294940 | false |
A new study on COVID-19 has revealed that the medication may have long-term effects on the brain, which is not only concerning to those who are currently taking it but also for those who have already stopped taking it as well.
The main concern with these side effects of COVID-19 is that it can affect mental capacity and memory, though some patients have also claimed to experience strange dreams and hallucinations while taking the drug.
This has led some people to question whether or not this medication should be available to the public at all, but what do you think?
Contents
How Much Evidence Is There?
There is still a lot unknown about the virus and its long-term effects, but there is some evidence emerging that suggests it may have lasting impacts on the brain.
A study published in Nature Medicine found that people who had been hospitalized with COVID-19 were more likely to have problems with their cognitive function six months later.
Other studies have found that people who have had COVID-19 are more likely to experience anxiety, depression, and insomnia. While more research is needed to understand the full extent of the virus’s impact on the brain, it’s clear that it can have lasting consequences.
What are the long-term effects?
There is still much unknown about the virus, but some experts are beginning to speculate about the long-term effects that COVID-19 may have on the brain. These effects could include problems with memory and concentration, as well as an increased risk for developing dementia.
The virus may also cause inflammation in the brain, which could lead to a variety of neurological problems. It’s important to remember that these are only potential effects and more research is needed to determine exactly how COVID-19 affects the brain in the long term.
Can it be treated or reversed?
There is still much unknown about the long-term effects of COVID-19 on the brain.
However, some experts believe that it may cause lasting damage. The virus has been shown to attack the nervous system, leading to problems with cognition, memory, and mood.
Treatment for these problems is currently unavailable, but researchers are hopeful that they will be able to develop effective treatments in the future.
In the meantime, people who have experienced cognitive or neurological problems after contracting COVID-19 should seek out support from a mental health professional.
More From PowdersvillePost:
Some Cases Of Covid-19 May Be Aided By Nerve Damage
‘Brain Fog’ Post-Covid May Be Caused By Changes In Spinal Fluid
Is it safe for those over 18s?
In one study, it was found that people who were infected with COVID-19 are at increased risk for developing depression or anxiety later in life.
In another study on monkeys, it was found that those who contracted the virus had lower levels of dopamine production in their brains than those who did not.
It has also been suggested by some researchers that getting this new vaccine could make people more susceptible to getting other diseases such as HIV or hepatitis C.
The exact reason for this susceptibility is not known but it may have something to do with changes in antibodies or lymphocytes caused by being vaccinated against COVID-19.
Final Thoughts
Though we don’t yet know all of the long-term effects of COVID-19, it’s clear that the virus can have lasting consequences for the brain.
In addition to the well-known cognitive effects, such as memory problems and trouble concentrating, research suggests that COVID-19 may also lead to changes in mood and behavior.
As more and more people are diagnosed with the virus, it’s important to be aware of the potential risks it poses to our mental health. With proper treatment and support, however, many people will be able to recover from the cognitive and emotional challenges posed by COVID-19.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Schubert Jonckheer & Kolbe LLP is investigating major U.S. credit reporting agency Equifax for allegedly sending bank and nonbank lenders, including JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, and Ally Financial, inaccurate credit scores on a vast number of U.S. consumers applying for credit cards, mortgages, and auto loans.
Equifax collects information and compiles credit reports for more than 200 million U.S. consumers. On August 2, 2022, Equifax issued a press release confirming they had identified the coding issue that affected a portion of U.S. consumers who had applied for credit reports between mid-March and early April. The coding error prompted Equifax to send erroneous credit scores to consumers' chosen lenders when consumers requested credit reports to apply for various loans. According to a class action lawsuit filed on August 3, 2022 in the Northern District of Georgia, almost 25 million credit reports were requested from the major three credit reporting agencies during the implicated time frame, deeming it likely that at least hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of U.S. consumers were affected by Equifax's mishap. An August 2, 2022 Wall Street Journal article additionally stated that some of the scores were changed by 20 or more points, which is enough to affect the interest rates offered to consumers or result in a rejected loan application.
The Schubert Firm is investigating whether Equifax violated state and federal laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act, by reporting inaccurate credit information to lenders. If you applied for credit or a loan between March 17, 2022 and April 5, 2022 and were negatively affected by an inaccurate Equifax credit score, you may be entitled to damages and an injunction requiring the company to reform its credit practices.
If you believe you may have been negatively affected by an inaccurate Equifax credit score between March 17 and April 5, please contact us today or visit our website at http://www.classactionlawyers.com/equifax.
Schubert Jonckheer & Kolbe represents shareholders, employees, and consumers in class actions against corporate defendants, as well as shareholders in derivative actions against their officers and directors. The firm is based in San Francisco, and with the help of co-counsel, litigates cases nationwide.

TORONTO, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Vive Crop Protection announced today the close of its USD $26 million Series C investment round. The round was led by Emmertech with participation from the Cibus funds, and existing investors Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), Export Development Canada (EDC), and Urbana Corporation. Vive has also secured debt financing from Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) to provide both working and growth capital in support of their continued expansion.
Vive will have a second close in the next quarter to accommodate top-tier investor groups still completing diligence - all strategically focused on next-generation agriculture technology.
Vive will leverage its newest funding to accelerate the commercial deployment of its next-generation product portfolio into new North American markets while advancing its research and development pipeline.
"The investment by Emmertech, the Cibus funds, and existing investors, and the debt financing provided by Silicon Valley Bank underscores our success in delivering innovative solutions to farmers," says Darren Anderson, Chief Executive Officer of Vive Crop Protection. "We're extremely excited about how these new relationships will propel our business to the next level, including into global markets."
Vive's proprietary Allosperse® technology is a nanoscale, polymer-based delivery system that improves the targeting and performance of both synthetic and biological active ingredients, enhancing farmers ROI and sustainability profile.
"Since 2018, our products are estimated to have saved farmers 34 million gallons of water, 189,000 gallons of fuel, and 15,000 hours of farm labor," says Anderson. "In addition, feedback from our annual customer satisfaction survey has been overwhelmingly positive with 97% of respondents indicating their desire to re-use Vive products."
In the last 18 months, Vive has experienced rapid growth which is evident in new product registrations, and increases in customer base, employment roster, and revenue - which has more than doubled from sales of its seven EPA-registered products.
Following Vive's 2021 U.S. launch of AZterknot® fungicide, sales opportunities in new crop segments have been significant. Registered across a broad spectrum of crops, AZterknot demonstrates Vive's ability to more effectively deliver both biologicals and synthetic active ingredients in a single jug.
In its first full marketing season of 2022, AZterknot sales exceeded expectation with product use on more than 50,000 U.S. acres. "AZterknot showcases our ability to deliver biologicals with proven chemistry," says Anderson. "As the demand for biologicals increases, Allosperse will be an important technology for bringing more bio-based offerings to market."
Kyle Scott, Managing Director of Conexus Venture Capital & Emmertech, says, "We are thrilled to be backing Vive's outstanding team and the trust they've built among farmers with solutions that are efficient, sustainable, and profitable. We look forward to supporting Vive with their R&D infrastructure and entrance into global markets."
Vive is also pleased to announce the appointment of Kyle Scott to its Board of Directors.
Alastair Cooper, Head of Venture at the Cibus funds, says, "Our investment underlines our commitment to disruptive companies like Vive who place innovation at the core of their business model. As agriculture continues to embrace new technology, we believe Vive products will become increasingly important for maximizing on-farm efficiency and sustainability."
Graeme Millen, Managing Director and Climate Tech & Sustainability lead in Canada for Silicon Valley Bank, says, "Vive's unique technology exemplifies the power of next-generation solutions to create sustainable yet profitable outcomes for stakeholders. This approach aligns with SVB's role as an active partner for high impact Agtech companies and we're excited to support Vive's important mission."

Strong adoption of composable commerce by retailers across the globe offers huge opportunities for growth, helps Myplanet secure investment from Tercera
TORONTO, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Myplanet, the leading composable commerce specialist, today announced it has received $11 million in funding from Tercera, a growth-focused investment firm specializing in cloud professional services. With this investment, Myplanet will extend its position in this rapidly growing space by deepening its MACH Alliance partnerships, delivering new innovative pre-packaged accelerators that democratize access to composable commerce, and doubling the size of its global talent base.
For more than a decade, Myplanet has been working with some of the world's most influential organizations on their digital experiences, leading over 100 commerce projects for companies like New Balance, UNTUCKit and Google. With nearly 200 experts, Myplanet is the largest composable commerce specialist in North America and a top-tier partner of MACH leaders like commercetools, Elastic Path, Contentful, Contentstack, Fluent and NewStore.
"We're at an inflection point in commerce. It used to be a shopping cart and a buy button; now it's experiences, subscriptions, consumption and connected devices," said Jason Cottrell, CEO and founder of Myplanet. "Composable commerce allows retailers to tap into this future and increase speed, reduce spend and build interconnectedness. With this infusion of capital from Tercera, a firm that deeply understands the space, we can accelerate that shift and become the place to go for composable commerce."
"Myplanet is a clear leader in API-first commerce," said Kelly Goetsch, Chief Strategy Officer at commercetools. "There's a reason our work together has won awards. This team is the complete package and any retailer looking to make the shift will be wise to look at Myplanet. This investment is going to further supercharge their team, and in turn the entire MACH Alliance ecosystem."
Today's retailers are dealing with a real "multi-problem" – how to provide a seamless customer experience across multiple channels, brands, geographies, languages, currencies, and business models – and the monolithic commerce solutions of the past can't keep pace. APIs and composable commerce solutions help retailers address this multi-problem. By 2023, Gartner predicts that half of new commerce capabilities will be delivered as API-centric services.
"What cloud did for computing, composable is doing for commerce," said Bill Petty, Partner at Tercera. "Myplanet's rich history in building digital experiences gave it an inside view into how the space has been evolving and what customers need. We're excited to partner with Jason and his diverse and incredibly talented team to build Myplanet into a global leader and the go-to MACH services partner."
Bill Petty, along with Tercera partner Michelle Swan, will join Myplanet's Board of Directors.
Tercera's investment will also be used to advance Myplanet's portfolio of composable commerce accelerators, which provide more than 35 pre-packaged integrations to different MACH solutions. Nearly 80% of Myplanet's current customers are using its Composable.comTM Accelerators to move faster into this new architecture, with less risk. The company plans to release additional accelerators for mobile and retail data in the next 12 months.
Luxury menswear retailer Harry Rosen entrusted Myplanet to lead their ambitious digital transformation. The use of MACH technologies to build a composable commerce solution helped the program recently win a prestigious MACH Award for Best Retail Project.
"Creating high-end experiences for our customers is the gold standard for Harry Rosen and working side-by-side with Myplanet made this program a resounding success," said Ian Rosen, President & COO of Harry Rosen. "Myplanet's mix of strategic insights, technical expertise and a willingness to roll up their sleeves, has created a platform that truly sets us apart."

The big climate and health care bill signed into law by President Biden has what at first sight looks like a big incentive for those shopping for a car: a revamped $7,500 tax credit if you buy a new electric vehicle, or $4,000 if you get a used one.
Although tax credits for electric cars have been offered before, the new bill revamps those incentives. But there are so many caveats – on everything from the buyers' income level to which models can qualify – that many electric cars may actually not be eligible for the tax credit.
Nonetheless, the caveats are there for two key reasons: to eventually make electric cars more affordable for more Americans and to bring more of the production across the supply chain to the U.S.
If the bill succeeds in accomplishing those two goals, experts believe the law could catapult the electric vehicle market into the mainstream in ways the country hasn't seen before.
Here's what to know about the tax credits.
So, who qualifies for the revamped tax credits?
Not everybody.
Only singles with incomes up to $150,000 a year and couples who file taxes jointly who earn up to $300,000 will qualify.
This income cap requirement is meant to help less affluent people afford electric cars – and incentivize automakers to expand their customer base.
The high cost of electric cars has long been seen as a major impediment to the adoption of these vehicles. Currently the average price of an electric vehicle is $66,000.
What about the requirements for the electric vehicles?
There are some major requirements, both on how the car – and its battery – is produced and the overall price of the vehicle.
To start with, to get the full tax credit, the car has to be assembled in North America. This provision of the law went into effect when President Biden signed the legislation into law last week. There are more than two dozen vehicles that meet this requirement, according to the U.S. Department of Energy, but dozens more have already been disqualified from the tax credit with this requirement alone.
Starting Jan. 1, 2023, more caveats come into effect.
Sedans have to be under $55,000 to qualify, and the cost of trucks, vans, and sports utility vehicles can't exceed $80,000.
The price caps for used electric vehicles is $25,000, but the cars won't have to comply with the made-in-America requirements.
Are there requirements for the batteries as well?
Yes, and that's important because batteries are the most important part of any electric car
A certain percentage of minerals in the EV battery must come from North America or a country that has a free trade agreement with the U.S.
Much of the battery components must also be manufactured or assembled in North America.
That's expected to complicate things for auto companies.
"That's going to be a huge burden and hurdle to overcome," says Carla Bailo, CEO of the Center for Automotive Research. "We don't have the mining, we don't have the critical minerals that are needed in North America or from our free trade partners, and almost 90% of the refining is done in China."
Currently, no electric vehicle on the market will qualify for the full tax credit when battery requirements take effect in 2023, according to the Alliance for Automotive Innovation.
Is it possible qualify for a partial tax credit?
It is.
A buyer could get a partial credit of $3,750 if 40% of the critical minerals in EV batteries are sourced from countries with which the U.S. has a free trade agreement.
The other $3,750 is linked to battery components. Starting in 2023, 50% of components will have to be manufactured or assembled in North America.
Over time, the required amount of minerals in the EV batteries sourced from the U.S. or trading partners will increase. So too will the required amount of components manufactured or assembled in North America.
Which automakers win and lose under this law?
Based on what's currently available on the market, higher-end electric car companies like Rivian stand to lose customers who qualify for the tax credit based on the cost of their vehicles.
Companies like Tesla or General Motors that have been producing cars in the U.S. and have already shifted their supply chains are better poised to meet the many requirements.
"They're probably at the forefront of this technology right now with some vehicles on the market and many more on the way," says Jessica Caldwell, executive director of insights at Edmunds.
Meanwhile, international automakers, like Toyota or Hyundai, face some big decisions.
"For the Asian and European automakers who have some limited production in North America, that's where we might see some more weighing of the scales in terms of, 'Is it worthwhile for us to shift production of vehicles or sourcing of materials to qualify for this, or do we just walk away?,'" says Michael Fiske, associated director of Powertrain and Compliance for S&P Global Mobility.
Don't these caveats make it hard to get the tax credit?
Initially, yes.
It will be difficult, if not impossible, for buyers to qualify for the full $7500 tax credit as automakers rethink their operations to meet the various requirements.
But this is a long-term play by the Biden administration. By incentivizing automakers to cater to a less affluent crowd and by pushing automakers to bring their supply chains to the U.S., the administration believes it can make EVs more mainstream and accelerate toward an ambitious goal: to have half of all new car sales be for electric models by 2030, up from only 3% today.
Another motivating factor is China.
China controls about three-quarters of the market for the minerals that are essential for batteries and the Biden administration has been worried about continued access to those minerals. By bolstering domestic supply chains, the administration intends to reduce China's ability to roil the electric vehicle market.
"This is about protecting American national security" says Fiske. " We've seen a lot of the challenges that have come from being reliant on the Middle East and for oil for the last half century or more. Now, I think there are valid concerns about becoming overly reliant on Asian countries for processing and manufacturing of batteries and battery-related materials for the next decade or 50 years."

Closing arguments next in trial of 2 men in Whitmer kidnapping plot
(AP) - Jurors will hear closing arguments Monday in the retrial of two men charged with conspiring to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in 2020.
Adam Fox and Barry Croft Jr. declined to testify Friday as defense lawyers rested their case in federal court in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
The government has portrayed Fox and Croft as leaders of a wild plan to snatch Whitmer at her vacation home in Elk Rapids, Michigan, and trigger chaos across the U.S.
Fox, Croft and their allies were furious about COVID-19 restrictions and generally disgusted by government, prosecutors say.
Defense lawyers, however, say Fox and Croft were a bumbling, foul-mouthed, marijuana-smoking pair exercising free speech and incapable of leading anything as extraordinary as an abduction of a public official. They say FBI agents and informants fed their outrage and pulled them into their web.
“It has FBI fingerprints all over it,” Christopher Gibbons said.
The jury heard secretly recorded conversations and read violent social media posts, some written before the FBI got involved. Two undercover agents and an informant testified for hours, explaining how the men trained in Wisconsin and Michigan and visited Elk Rapids to see Whitmer’s home.
Other witnesses included Ty Garbin and Kaleb Franks, who pleaded guilty and insisted the group was not entrapped.
Fox and Croft are on trial for a second time after a jury in April couldn’t reach a unanimous verdict but acquitted two other men.
Croft, 46, is from Bear, Delaware. Fox, 39, was living in the basement of a vacuum shop in the Grand Rapids area.
Whitmer, a Democrat, has blamed then-President Donald Trump for stoking mistrust and fomenting anger over coronavirus restrictions and refusing to condemn hate groups and right-wing extremists like those charged in the plot.
She said Sunday that she hasn’t been following the retrial, but that she remains concerned about “violent rhetoric in this country.”
“This is a dangerous trend that is happening. We cannot let it become normalized and I do hope that anyone that’s out there plotting to hurt their fellow Americans is held accountable,” Whitmer said at the Michigan Democratic Party’s convention in Lansing.
Trump recently called the kidnapping plan a “fake deal.”

HARNETT COUNTY, N.C. (WTVD) -- A mother and father accused in the death of their infant are expected to appear before a judge today.
Police in Erwin arrested Dustin Vandyke and Gracie Riddle after finding an infant's body behind their home. Both are facing murder and possibly more charges in the case.
Officers started the investigation after receiving a tip about an unreported death that occurred several months earlier at a house on Moulton Springs Road. Police said they executed a search warrant at the house around 9:00 p.m. Friday.
During the search, officers said a cadaver dog lead them to a decomposed body of an infant behind the house.
"Where the child was buried, there was a lawn mower that sat there for a long time. And it was a nice lawn mower, but it never moved. We just figured that something was wrong with it. And it was just sitting there. Now the lawn mower moved in the last month, so now this child is uncovered," One neighbor told ABC11. | https://abc11.com/infant-body-found-erwin-police-court-apperance-unreported-death/12152680/ | 2022-08-22T11:43:02Z | https://abc11.com/infant-body-found-erwin-police-court-apperance-unreported-death/12152680/ | false |

Here are my 2022 fantasy football draft rankings for running backs. I will update them as dictated by new information — or, to be completely transparent, by particularly persuasive arguments I happen to come across — right up to the start of the season, so check back for the latest player order.
In the great Jonathan Taylor-or-Christian McCaffrey debate over the top two backs, I’m on Team CMC, and you’ll also note I’m quite bullish on Saquon Barkley. Maybe it’s overly optimistic to rank him fourth, but the Giants appear set to give him all the work he can handle, he’s two years removed from his ACL tear and, hey, it turned out I wasn’t optimistic enough when I ranked Taylor fourth last year, so sometimes it pays to be less cautious than the crowd.
Further down, I see enough red flags in Derrick Henry (some of which have to do with general pessimism about the Titans) to push him down my board. Similar forebodings about Ezekiel Elliott’s past workload and decreasing efficiency have me placing him just behind teammate Tony Pollard, despite the latter’s ostensible role as Zeke’s backup.
Please note that my rankings default to half-PPR — points-per-reception — so you may want to adjust certain running backs up or down based on expected targets and touchdowns in the passing game if your draft’s format is full-PPR or standard. Best of luck assembling your squads!
ECR is the expert consensus rankings. ADP is average draft position.

Here are my 2022 fantasy football draft rankings for wide receivers. I will update them as dictated by new information — or, to be completely transparent, by particularly persuasive arguments I happen to come across — right up to the start of the season, so check back for the latest player order.
For now, I’m resisting the temptation to move No. 2 Justin Jefferson, who appears to be central to everything the Vikings want to do on offense this season, over No. 1 Cooper Kupp. I also like the chances of three high-profile WRs who changed teams this offseason — Davante Adams, Tyreek Hill and A. J. Brown — to hit the ground running (and catching) in their new homes.
More cautious treatment is being given to the Seahawks’ erstwhile stellar pair of D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, given Seattle’s replacement of Russell Wilson with the uninspiring Geno Smith-Drew Lock duo. With each sign of progress in their returns from injury, I’ve been pushing Chris Godwin and Michael Thomas up the board, but the depth at this position keeps me from fully welcoming them into the WR2 ranks.
Please note that my rankings default to half-PPR — points-per-reception — so you may want to adjust certain wide receivers up or down based on expected targets and touchdowns if your draft’s format is full-PPR or standard. Best of luck assembling your squads!

What are your thoughts on Gorleston seafront's masterplan?
- Credit: © JAMES BASS 2016
People are invited to have their say on what they would like for the future of Gorleston seafront.
Great Yarmouth Borough Council has drafted a masterplan for the next 15 years of the Edwardian seafront. Plans have been drafted using the feedback provided by around 1,200 responses received in a survey last year, as well as discussions from local leaders and organisations.
The council has launched a new survey asking for people's views on the new proposals which cover issues such as conservation, accessibility, wayfinding and events.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- SurvivorNet, the leading patient-facing destination for information about cancer, is announcing a comprehensive new destination on psoriasis as the company expands its content initiatives outside cancer and into key chronic diseases where useful and inspiring patient-facing resources are lacking.
August is Psoriasis Awareness Month. Psoriasis is a persistent autoimmune skin condition that affects more than seven million Americans. It's thought to be genetic, but is aggravated by outside factors such as stress and various lifestyle factors. In addition to creating discomfort, psoriasis can be hard on a person's self-esteem. It can also be managed effectively with the right initiative and patient education. That's where SurvivorNet's unique combination of useful, video-driven information from top doctors plus patient inspiration will make a huge difference to psoriasis sufferers.
SurvivorNet's new special resource section on psoriasis offers first in class guidance from top doctors in the field, in short, useful videos. This comprehensive information resource is unique in that it's focused on helping patients who are scared, discomfited and seeking the latest guidance on this difficult condition, a condition which is highly treatable with determination and the right information. As is the case with all of SurvivorNet's medical content, all medical information has been medically reviewed by experienced physicians.
SurvivorNet TV has also launched a block of video programming around personal resilience and inspiration. This programming showcases the kind of optimism, determination and strength that people living with psoriasis draw on to live their best lives.
"Millions of Americans with psoriasis are struggling with its health consequences as well as with the psychological burden and sometimes the shame that can come with this disease," said SurvivorNet CEO Steve Alperin. "SurvivorNet is now offering a first in class resource that offers excellent, vetted video information as well as needed inspiration and encouragement."
The special psoriasis section also showcases inspiring patient stories about people living with psoriasis who've overcome its effects with spirit and courage as well as with the best available medical treatment. This makes SurvivorNet the best destination where psoriasis sufferers can find true motivation from patients who've made the best of their condition and are living, free of shame or stigma.
SurvivorNet is the country's leading platform for cancer information, serving 2.5 million people per month who are looking for help making better decisions about their care. The platform was built in collaboration with leading comprehensive cancer centers and features top physicians delivering highly detailed information about specific cancers. SurvivorNet also has produced thousands of stories intended to provide hope and inspiration for patients.
Steve Alperin is the founder and CEO of SurvivorNet.

Russia’s FSB blames Ukrainian intelligence for car bombing that killed nationalist’s daughter
MOSCOW (AP) — Russia’s top counterintelligence agency on Monday blamed Ukrainian spy agencies have organized the killing of the daughter of a Russian nationalist ideologue.
Russia’s Federal Security Service, the main KGB successor agency, said that the killing of Darya Dugina has been “prepared and perpetrated by the Ukrainian special services.”
Dugina was the daughter of Alexander Dugin, a Russian nationalist ideologist who was described by some in the West as “Putin’s brain.”
It charged that the killing was perpetrated by a Ukrainian citizen, who left Russia for Estonia after the killing.
The FSB said that the suspect, Natalya Vovk, rented an apartment in the building where Dugina lived and shadowed her. Vovk and her daughter were at a nationalist festival, which Alexander Dugin and his daughter attended just before the killing.
Ukraine has previously denied any involvement in the killing.

A video showing three officers beating a suspect in Mulberry, Arkansas, spread on social media on Sunday, prompting an investigation.
According to the Crawford County Sheriff’s Department, two of its member were suspended. The Associated Press reported that a third officer, a member of the Mulberry Police Department, was also suspended.
Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson said in a tweet that he is directing the Arkansas State Police to lead an investigation into the incident.
The video showed one of the officers striking the suspect multiple times in the head. Another one of the officers is seen kneeing multiple times into the suspect.
“I hold all my employees accountable for their actions and will take appropriate measures in this matter,” Crawford County Sheriff Jimmy Damante said.
In a police report released to the Associated Press, the man was accused of making threats to a convenience store Sunday morning.
He faces charges of terroristic threatening, resisting arrest and other assault charges, the AP reported. | https://www.3newsnow.com/news/national/3-arkansas-officers-suspended-after-beating-suspect | 2022-08-22T12:09:01Z | https://www.3newsnow.com/news/national/3-arkansas-officers-suspended-after-beating-suspect | false |
When Jo Armstrong gets the phone call, she and her dog Roo get into the car as quickly as they can and set off. “I get adrenaline as I drive,” she says, “because I’m planning in my head what I’ve got to do when I get there.”
Jo, 61, is a search and rescue dog handler volunteer, who has specially trained seven-year-old Roo to follow the scent of a vulnerable missing person and help in trying to bring them home.
Give Roo, a Labrador-springer-spaniel, a whiff of someone’s pillow case or a toothbrush and she can follow that person’s direction of travel by sniffing the ground.
“If you have a ground-scenting dog who shows you that the person’s gone in this direction, then you cut your search area down massively,” says Jo, “and then you can send all your search technicians into a much smaller area. The dog has given you a trail and a complete circle to deploy the search and rescue team to.”
Roo – whose sense of smell is 100,000 times stronger than a human’s – and his owner Jo, are part of Search Dog Heroes, a ground-breaking project involving the charities Missing People and Lowland Rescue who use search dogs to track down vulnerable missing people. Every year 250,000 people go missing in the UK, and children with special education needs and adults with dementia or mental health issues are some of the most vulnerable when they disappear. Specially trained dogs like Roo will help find them- and other people facing serious danger – as quickly as possible, when time is of the essence.
Jo and Roo, who are based in Berkshire, recently covered a trail of 1.5km to find a missing woman, who was treated by paramedics and taken to hospital. Jo remembers helping find someone who had taken an overdose, and they survived.
“Sometimes it’s very sad because we find people who are deceased,” she says. “It’s awful for their family but at least we found them rather than a member of the public, and then the family gets some kind of closure.”
When Jo goes out on a trail, she will have someone from Lowland Rescue with her as support. Sometimes she needs help from the police to stop traffic, because the missing person was last seen on a busy roundabout and Roo needs to be able to start sniffing the trail from there.
One of Jo’s first ever call-outs took an unexpected turn. “We were called to a care home where someone had gone missing,” she said, “so I went to the person’s room to get the scent article, and on all the doors that the police had been in and they put little yellow stickers on all the doors that they searched there. They said they’d searched everybody’s room and this person had clearly gone. So I put Roo on the scent, and she gave me nothing, no sense of a trail or any direction at all. I told the police that according to Roo the missing person was still inside, somewhere close to us. The team went out on a search all the same, and I went along as support, but we soon got news over the radio that we could stand down and the person had been found. I was like, ‘Oh goodness gracious, wherever have they been found?’. It turned out they’d locked themselves in a cupboard inside the care home.” The dog was right.
When Jo, who has had Roo since she was a puppy, gets a call-out, she will often go into the missing person’s home to collect an item of used clothing, pillowcases, toothbrush shoes, anything that has only been used or handled by that missing person.
“Sometimes in their stress,” she says, “the family might go to the laundry basket for clothes, which is no good because the person’s scent won’t be on that item. It can also be a minefield because very often, if someone’s gone missing from home, the family will have gone out looking for that person and often relatives’ scents are very similar too, so you have to be careful.”
As part of raising awareness about how crucial scent can be in finding vulnerable missing people, Search Dog Heroes is showing people online how to capture and store a loved one’s scent, how to help prevent disappearances and how to prepare for them.
“It’s helpful to have somebody’s scent ready to go,” says Jo, “and a description written down, plus a photograph and their name, all ready for the police, because when a loved-one goes missing it’s stressful and not easy to think of these things at the time.”
Is there ever an ethical difficulty around looking for people who may not want to be found? “We do get people that don’t don’t wish to be found,” says Jo, “but then we just report back to the police about where the person is, and then it’s up to them. We are there to find the person. Lowland Rescue also has a very good medical team, so often they’ll stay with the missing person and wait for the ambulance.”
With Roo’s ground-scenting training skills being in short supply in the UK, Jo gets phoned up for search missions whether she’s technically on call or not. She’s not always available as her day job is working as a carer, but she goes whenever she can.
“Sometimes we don’t get a call-out for a few weeks,” she says, “and then suddenly you’ll get two or three call outs in a day. It’s very odd how it goes. I don’t know the rhyme or reason for it. Christmas is busier, though, people tend to be more vulnerable then, there’s more depression, more difficulty.”
Yet, as difficult as some of the call-outs can be, Jo has been “hooked” on volunteering with Roo from the moment she began training her. It was her daughter who suggested in 2013 that it might be good to volunteer with search and rescue dogs, and so Jo decided to bring Roo into her life.
“It’s such an interesting thing to watch the dogs work trails,” she says. “If you think of the number of people out there walking around, and these dogs know that there is one missing person’s scent they are following. They know they have to ignore everyone else, all other smells from food shops, other dogs who have popped their legs up on signposts. They know to go after one specific trail.”
Roo is a pro now, but it took a lot to get her to that point. “You need to be really committed to train a trailing dog,” says Jo, “it’s a very hard discipline. I didn’t qualify her until she was five years old, because although she was probably ready earlier, and people told me how good she was and that I should get her assessed, in my heart I didn’t feel ready. It’s an incredible pressure you get put under because when the search team says, ‘ok which way did that high-risk person go?’, I wanted to be 100 per cent sure my dog is every single time going to show us the right way. It is possible though, with the right training and support, to qualify a dog in two to three years.”
Training is key, but not all dogs have the right traits to start with. “You want the working-type dogs,” says Jo, “dogs with a really high play drive and a really good work ethic. She’ll do what she’s told, but she has a bit of arrogance to her too, because you need an independent dog who isn’t too obedient. They have to be able to insist that a person has gone a certain way, and to keep searching, not be too influenced by me. Otherwise they would start turning around and looking at you for help. You can’t give them help because you have no idea where that missing person has gone, only the dog does. I find it incredible what these animals can do.”

The endomina system, a new suturing tool for endoscopists, is designed to enable less invasive procedures and expand treatment options for more patients
GOSSELIES, Belgium, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Endo Tools Therapeutics (ETT), developers of advanced endoscopic medical devices, today announced first U.S. commercial cases of the endomina® system. The system is designed for endoscopic placement of suture(s) and approximation of soft tissue in the gastrointestinal tract. The first endomina procedures were performed by Dr. Chris Thompson and Dr. Pichamol Jirapinyo at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, MA.
"We are thrilled to be the first hospital in the U.S. to perform gastric procedures using the endomina system. The system offers a minimally invasive option with a large working space to approximate very large plications," said Dr. Thompson. "I look forward to incorporating endomina into my daily practice, as I found it particularly easy to learn and use due to its unique design."
The endomina system is comprised of a triangulation platform and suturing units (TAPES). It can be affixed to various tested standard endoscopes, providing a bendable therapeutic channel that can move independently. Physicians will be able to perform suturing like a laparoscopic intervention but through a natural orifice, the mouth. The endomina system is the only technology that can be assembled on the endoscope in the stomach for a greater working space and easy introduction of instruments into the esophagus.
"We are delighted the endomina system is now available to patients and physicians in the U.S. market," said Alexandre Chau, chief executive officer, Endo Tools Therapeutics. "The successful completion of these first cases in the U.S. demonstrates potential for this technology to improve the lives of patients undergoing gastric surgery."
The endomina system is CE marked and has received 510k clearance in the U.S. More than 500 procedures have already been performed with the company's devices globally.
About Endo Tools Therapeutics
Located in Gosselies, Belgium, Endo Tools Therapeutics S.A. (ETT) mission is to develop advanced, incisionless, minimally invasive medical devices for gastroenterologists to use with standard endoscopes. The company targets indications that cannot be performed with standard gastroscopes, such as endoscopic suturing and tissue apposition. ETT closed $9.5 million in series D funding in January 2021.

NIKOPOL, Ukraine (AP) — Russian shelling across the river from Ukraine’s main atomic plant wounded four people on Monday, an official said, only hours after the latest international pleas to spare the area from attacks to prevent a nuclear disaster.
And as danger and fear spread ever further beyond the front lines in eastern and southern Ukraine, Russia’s top counterintelligence agency accused Ukrainian spy agencies have organized the killing in Moscow of the daughter of a Russian nationalist ideologue.
On the battleground itself, Nikopol, about 10 kilometers (six miles) downstream from the Zaporizhzhya nuclear plant, came under fire three times overnight from rockets and mortar shells, hitting houses, a kindergarten, the bus station and stores.
Mayor Oleksandr Saiuk said four people were wounded, including two who were hospitalized.
Reports of sustained shelling around Europe’s largest nuclear power plant further highlighted the dangers of a war that will hit the half-year mark on Wednesday.
After U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres again urged caution during a visit to Ukraine last week, U.S. President Joe Biden further discussed the issue with the leaders of France, Germany and Britain on Sunday.
The four leaders stressed the need to avoid military operations in the region to prevent the possibility of a potentially devastating nuclear incident and called for the U.N.’s atomic energy agency to be allowed to visit the facilities as soon as possible.
But nothing seemed certain in a war that has spread into the Russia-annexed Crimea Peninsula and as far as Moscow, where on Saturday night a car blast killed the daughter of an influential Russian political theorist often referred to as “Putin’s brain.”
On Monday, Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), the main KGB successor agency, said that the killing of Darya Dugina has been “prepared and perpetrated by the Ukrainian special services.” It charged that the killing was perpetrated by a Ukrainian citizen, who left Russia for Estonia after the killing.
The FSB said that the suspect, Natalya Vovk, rented an apartment in the building where Dugina lived and shadowed her. Vovk and her daughter were at a nationalist festival, which Alexander Dugin and his daughter attended just before the killing. Ukraine officials earlier have denied involvement.
In Crimea, anxiety has spread further following a spate of fires and explosions at Russian facilities over the past two weeks. The governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhaev, ordered that signs showing the location of bomb shelters be placed in the city, which had long seemed untouchable.
Monday’s statement follows a series of drone incursions into Sevastopol, which is home to Russia’s Black Sea Fleet. A drone exploded at the fleet’s headquarters on July 31 and another was shot down over it last week. Authorities also say air-defense systems have shot down other drones.
Razvozhaev said on Telegram that the city is well protected, but “it is better to know where the shelters are.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin didn’t mention Russia’s military operation in Ukraine during a speech marking National Flag Day on Monday, but echoed some of the justifications cited for sending in troops.
“We are firm in pursuing in the international arena only those policies that meet the fundamental interests of the motherland,” Putin said. He maintains that Russia sent troops into Ukraine as effectively a protective measure against the encroaching West.
“The desire to live according to one’s will, to choose one’s own path and follow it, has become part of the genetic code of our people,” he said.

JERUSALEM (AP) — A bull escaped from its pen early Monday, setting off a panicked scene in the streets of a central Israeli city before entering an office building and evading capture for half an hour as it scampered through the hallways.
Bank Leumi said the bull entered its offices in an industrial zone in the city of Lod, near Tel Aviv.
Amateur videos showed residents scurrying for safety as the bull roamed the streets. Several cars appear to have been damaged, and the bull nearly gored one man who got too close.
Inside the building, the animal slid around the tiled floors as it ran through a hallway with several men chasing it.
The men unsuccessfully attempted to capture it with a makeshift lasso — a piece of rope that quickly frayed. After being chased out of the bank offices, the bull was tranquilized by city veterinary employees and taken from the area.
Despite the chaotic scene, the bank remained bullish. “No one was injured and no damage was caused,” it said in a statement. | https://www.cbs42.com/news/weird/freed-bull-races-through-israeli-streets-into-building/ | 2022-08-22T12:27:20Z | https://www.cbs42.com/news/weird/freed-bull-races-through-israeli-streets-into-building/ | true |

What to watch: Top Democrats square off in Florida, New York
Tuesday's primary elections feature two top Florida Democrats squaring off for the chance to face Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, a rising conservative star frequently mentioned as a top alternative to Donald Trump in the 2024 GOP presidential contest.
In New York, redistricting has left two longtime House Democratic colleagues competing for the same seat, while the head of the party's campaign arm in the chamber is running in new territory and faces a challenge from the left.
Oklahoma Republicans will choose between two Trump loyalists competing in a runoff to be their party's nominee to finish the term of retiring GOP Sen. Jim Inhofe. The 87-year-old is stepping down at the end of the year, with more than four years left in his term.
What to watch:
FLORIDA
Once the nation's largest swing state, Florida has trended more Republican in recent years. Trump won it twice, and the GOP’s domination of the Legislature has given DeSantis a national platform to carry out a brash brand of culture war politics that's delighted big GOP donors and sparked speculation he'll run for president.
State Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried and U.S. Rep. Charlie Crist, who was once governor himself as a Republican, are vying for the Democratic nomination to compete against DeSantis in November. Fried, the only statewide-elected Democrat, has sought to portray Crist as a Democrat in name only. She's highlighted Crist's former anti-abortion stance and his appointment of conservative state Supreme Court justices. Crist has dismissed Fried’s criticisms as last-ditch efforts to counter his stouter fundraising and high-profile endorsements.
In the U.S. Senate race, Tuesday's primary is expected to cement a general election matchup between incumbent Republican Marco Rubio and Democratic congresswoman Val Demings, who is giving up her Orlando-based seat.
Meanwhile, hotly contested primaries stem from the departure of four House members, the acquisition of a new congressional district thanks to Florida's booming population, and new maps drawn by DeSantis' office that could boost Republicans even further.
One of the House's most controversial members, Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz, is facing a strong primary challenge from Mark Lombardo, a former Marine and former FedEx executive who has run a series of ads attacking Gaetz for being under federal investigation in a sex trafficking case. Gaetz has not been charged and denies wrongdoing.
Running for the Democratic nomination for Gaetz's seat is Rebekah Jones, a former Department of Health employee who received national attention after she questioned the state’s COVID-19 dashboard and claimed Florida wasn’t reporting accurate numbers — an allegation that an inspector general’s report said was unfounded. Jones is facing Peggy Schiller, a local Democratic Party activist.
NEW YORK
New York is holding its second round of primary elections after voting in June for statewide races. Tuesday will cover the state's 26 U.S. House seats, a delayed date after a judge ordered a redrawing of political maps.
The new congressional districts have caused Democratic consternation, especially a new Manhattan-area seat that has turned two incumbents into rivals. Rep. Carolyn Maloney, who has represented New York City’s Upper East Side for three decades, is facing Rep. Jerry Nadler, who has represented the Upper West Side for just as long.
Maloney, 76, and Nadler, 75, each chair powerful committees. Running in the same primary is Suraj Patel, a 38-year-old attorney who says it's time for a new generation of leaders.
Nadler has been endorsed by The New York Times and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. But turnout could be low since many district residents have left for summer vacations, especially wealthy voters who have second homes elsewhere, making predicting the winner difficult.
Unpredictable turnout could also decide a primary in an ultraliberal district in southern Manhattan and Brooklyn. Competing there is progressive Rep. Mondaire Jones, who represents a Hudson Valley seat but is running further south to avoid another incumbent-on-incumbent challenge.
Other candidates for the seat include Assembly member Yuh-Line Niou, New York City Councilwoman Carlina Rivera and former Rep. Elizabeth Holtzman. Also running is Daniel Goldman, the former federal prosecutor who served as counsel to House Democrats in Trump's first impeachment inquiry.
Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, who heads the House Democratic campaign organization, is running in a new suburban district north of New York City. He swapped districts without consulting Jones, who currently represents most of the area. The move rankled the left and led state Sen. Alessandra Biaggi to challenge him for the seat.
A top Republican primary race is unfolding near Buffalo, where Republican Rep. Chris Jacobs opted not to seek reelection after facing backlash for voicing support for gun safety measures following a racist mass shooting in his district last May. New York Republican Party Chair Nick Langworthy and businessman Carl Paladino are running to replace him.
Paladino is a former gubernatorial candidate with a long history of offensive comments, including his suggestion that Adolf Hitler was “the kind of leader we need today” because of his ability to rally crowds. More recently, he said in a radio interview that U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland “should be executed” for authorizing a search of Trump’s home. He said later in the show that he was being facetious.
OKLAHOMA
Two Trump supporters are competing in the GOP primary runoff for the remainder of Inhofe's term, which expires in January 2027.
Rep. Markwayne Mullin, a plumbing company owner who won his eastern Oklahoma House seat in 2012, finished atop a 13-candidate GOP field in June but came up short of the 50% threshold he needed to clinch the primary outright. He was endorsed by Trump, but only after finishing first in the primary.
Mullin faces former Oklahoma Speaker of the House T.W. Shannon, a bank executive who ran unsuccessfully for an open U.S. Senate seat in 2014. The winner will be heavily favored in November against former Democratic Rep. Kendra Horn.
In a state where nearly 10% of the population identifies as American Indian, both Mullin and Shannon are members of Native American tribes. Mullin is a Cherokee citizen, and Shannon, who is also African American, is a citizen of the Chickasaw Nation.
In Oklahoma's other Senate race, Jason Bollinger, an Oklahoma City attorney, and Madison Horn, a cybersecurity expert, are competing in the Democratic primary runoff to face incumbent Republican Sen. James Lankford in November. Lankford will be the strong favorite in November.
Mullin’s Senate bid left open House seat that drew 14 GOP challengers. Former state Sen. Josh Brecheen and current state lawmaker Avery Frix advanced to a runoff.

(KTLA) — A dog owner is warning the public after her small dog became permanently blinded after ingesting oxycodone and collapsing while on a walk in Santa Monica.
Lori Burns was walking her two dogs last week along Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica. She told Nexstar’s KTLA that tons of people were out exercising, playing, and walking their own dogs in the 78-degree weather.
Suddenly one of her dogs, a 15-pound former shelter dog named Chance, started to breathe heavily before collapsing.
Burns carried her dog to the car and immediately drove to a nearby veterinary clinic.
“They said they needed to immediately ice his body and give him oxygen and start an IV, and that’s when I looked at the vet and I said, ‘Is he going to live?’ and he said, ‘I really don’t know.'”
The veterinarian told her that Chance had a fever of 106 degrees and if they couldn’t bring down the temperature, his organs would begin to fail and he would die.
About an hour later after running some tests, the veterinary staff told Burns that Chance had somehow ingested oxycodone and had overdosed on the opioid.
Now knowing what they were dealing with, the veterinarians were able to treat his symptoms and Chance made what appeared to be a miraculous recovery.
Burns was able to pick Chance up the next day and bring him home, but that’s when she discovered that her dog’s life would be permanently altered: the medical scare had left him blind.
“I was thankful that I could pick him up the next day, bring him home and have him at least start this new chapter of his life, dark and blind,” Burns said. “At least he’s got my family and me to love on him.”
Veterinarians say it’s not entirely unheard of for dogs to mistakenly ingest opioids. Usually, though, dogs will accidentally eat a pill belonging to their owners.
Burns is unsure when or where Chance came in contact with the controlled substance, but she hopes her story helps other dog owners recognize the risks and signs of a doggy overdose.
Those signs include collapsing, problems breathing, urinating or drooling, and unstable walking as if they were drunk.
As for Chance, the dog was given his name after he was rescued from a shelter and given a new lease on life. Even with his new disability, it seems he’s been given yet another chance at a happy life. | https://www.yourbasin.com/news/national-news/dog-blinded-after-ingesting-oxycodone-during-walk/ | 2022-08-22T12:30:52Z | https://www.yourbasin.com/news/national-news/dog-blinded-after-ingesting-oxycodone-during-walk/ | true |

The past couple of years have been tough for educators and students alike. The pandemic worked to introduce widespread learning loss and behavioral issues.
And unfortunately for Texas’ school districts, state lawmakers haven’t made things much easier.
Last year, politicians passed a law banning the instruction of so-called “critical race theory,” which districts say isn’t even taught in public schools. But in conservative circles, the buzzword has led to attempts to whitewash curricula that touches on racism.
After putting up with years of budget cuts, comparatively low salaries and attacks from parents and state legislators, many Texas teachers have had enough. And 70% of educators are considering leaving the field, according to a survey released earlier this month.
With a looming hemorrhage of employees and students causing trouble, here’s some of the craziest news to come from public education so far this fall.
‘In God We Trust’ Posters
Texas has an abundance of churches, but officials apparently think that we need to add more God to institutional buildings. Last year, legislators passed a law dictating that schools must exhibit donated “In God We Trust” posters in a conspicuous place.
Carroll ISD recently announced it will hang such signs in its schools after receiving contributions from Christian conservative wireless company Patriot Mobile.
Critics have described the law as “Christian nationalism” in action.
Hardened Schools
Following the Uvalde elementary school shooting in May, many Texas districts scrambled to roll out new security measures ahead of the 2022–23 school year. Officials have installed locks and camera systems and encouraged teachers to carry arms.
And last week, Gov. Greg Abbott announced that applications are open for the state’s $50 million grant program for ballistic shields.
“Texas is working with law enforcement to keep children, teachers, & schools safe as the new school year begins,” Abbott said in a tweet.
Removal of Bible and Graphic Novel Adaptation of Anne Frank's DiaryApplications are open for @alerrtcenter training travel assistance & the Bullet-Resistant Shield Grant Program.

North Texas is in the national spotlight thanks to a book-based controversy brewing in Keller ISD.
Last week, some were outraged after school staff received an email that asked them to pull more than 40 titles from classes and library shelves. A graphic novel adaptation of Anne Frank’s diary and the Bible were among the challenged titles. (On Friday, the district noted that both books have been returned to circulation following review.)
Many on social media began alleging that the Bible and Anne Frank's The Diary of a Young Girl had been “banned,” which led to Snopes.com debunking the claim. Keller ISD has provided clarification, stating that the Bible and the graphic novel adaption of Anne Frank's diary had been previously challenged and were thereby under review, but that “none of the books under reevaluation were banned.”
Teacher Resignations
The state’s educators are apparently sprinting for the exit.
From January to July this year, resignations and retirements were nearly 50% higher “than the average of the previous four years,” according to WFAA. In 2022, more than 1,300 teachers fled Dallas ISD, amounting to a 56% increase over the average.
A leader from the United Educators Association described the trend to WFAA, saying, “It is a perfect storm right now, and they’re fed up, and they’re leaving the professions in droves.” | https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/texas-public-school-districts-face-challenges-as-2022-23-school-year-begins-14636852 | 2022-08-22T12:32:18Z | https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/texas-public-school-districts-face-challenges-as-2022-23-school-year-begins-14636852 | true |
NEW YORK, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- SurvivorNet, the leading patient-facing destination for information about cancer, is announcing a comprehensive new destination on psoriasis as the company expands its content initiatives outside cancer and into key chronic diseases where useful and inspiring patient-facing resources are lacking.
August is Psoriasis Awareness Month. Psoriasis is a persistent autoimmune skin condition that affects more than seven million Americans. It's thought to be genetic, but is aggravated by outside factors such as stress and various lifestyle factors. In addition to creating discomfort, psoriasis can be hard on a person's self-esteem. It can also be managed effectively with the right initiative and patient education. That's where SurvivorNet's unique combination of useful, video-driven information from top doctors plus patient inspiration will make a huge difference to psoriasis sufferers.
SurvivorNet's new special resource section on psoriasis offers first in class guidance from top doctors in the field, in short, useful videos. This comprehensive information resource is unique in that it's focused on helping patients who are scared, discomfited and seeking the latest guidance on this difficult condition, a condition which is highly treatable with determination and the right information. As is the case with all of SurvivorNet's medical content, all medical information has been medically reviewed by experienced physicians.
SurvivorNet TV has also launched a block of video programming around personal resilience and inspiration. This programming showcases the kind of optimism, determination and strength that people living with psoriasis draw on to live their best lives.
"Millions of Americans with psoriasis are struggling with its health consequences as well as with the psychological burden and sometimes the shame that can come with this disease," said SurvivorNet CEO Steve Alperin. "SurvivorNet is now offering a first in class resource that offers excellent, vetted video information as well as needed inspiration and encouragement."
The special psoriasis section also showcases inspiring patient stories about people living with psoriasis who've overcome its effects with spirit and courage as well as with the best available medical treatment. This makes SurvivorNet the best destination where psoriasis sufferers can find true motivation from patients who've made the best of their condition and are living, free of shame or stigma.
SurvivorNet is the country's leading platform for cancer information, serving 2.5 million people per month who are looking for help making better decisions about their care. The platform was built in collaboration with leading comprehensive cancer centers and features top physicians delivering highly detailed information about specific cancers. SurvivorNet also has produced thousands of stories intended to provide hope and inspiration for patients.
Steve Alperin is the founder and CEO of SurvivorNet.

Former Dundee manager Ivano Bonetti could be back in top-flight football as part of a reported Qatari bid to buy his old club Sampdoria.
The former Juventus, Atalanta and Samp midfielder has been joined by Gianluca Vialli, both members of the Sampdoria side that won Serie A in 1991, as part of a consortium headed up by Sheikh Khalid Faleh Al-Thani, a member of the Qatar royal family.
In 2000, Bonetti took over at Dens Park and oversaw a period dominated by the arrivals of stars like Claudio Caniggia and Fabian Caballero.
However, huge financial issues followed the departure of Bonetti and his brother Dario in 2002 with Dundee going into administration a year later amid a debt of £23 million.
Since then Ivano Bonetti had six years as director of football at Italian lower-league club Pescina and as a coach at Serie D club Rimini in 2020.
‘Ready to go at any time’
Now he and former Sampdoria team-mate Vialli, who also played for Juventus and Chelsea, have joined entrepreneur Francesco Di Silvio to represent the Qatari royal family in a bid to buy their old club.
Sampdoria official Gianluca Vidal told Italian media: “A lawyer called me for the first time, he introduced himself and told me that he had received the mandate from Di Silvio, Vialli and Bonetti to follow this negotiation.
“We agreed that the right step is to organise a meeting between Al Thani and me, as I had already proposed in the past.
“This lawyer has shared this path and is committed to organising it.
“I’m waiting for news and I’m ready to go at any time.
“I confirm that I have not received any binding offers to date.”
As well as winning the Scudetto in 1991, Sampdoria won the European Cup Winners’ Cup in 1990 before being beaten in the European Cup Final two years later.
Recent times have been far less successful with the club stuck in mid-table in Serie A since promotion from Serie B in 2012.
Last season they finished 15th.

Wanted: 7,000 construction workers for Intel chip plants
By ANDREW WELSH-HUGGINS
Associated Press
JOHNSTOWN, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s largest-ever economic development project comes with a big employment challenge: how to find 7,000 construction workers in an already booming building environment when there’s also a national shortage of people working in the trades.
At hand is the $20 billion semiconductor manufacturing operation near the state’s capital, announced by Intel earlier this year. When the two factories, known as fabs, open in 2025, the facility will employ 3,000 people with an average salary of around $135,000.
Before that happens, the 1,000-acre site must be leveled and the semiconductor factories built.
“This project reverberated nationwide,” said Michael Engbert, an Ohio-based official with the Laborers’ International Union of North America.
“We don’t field calls every day from members hundreds or thousands of miles away asking about transferring into Columbus, Ohio,” he said. “It’s because they know Intel is coming.”
To win the project, Ohio offered Intel roughly $2 billion in incentives, including a 30-year tax break. Intel has outlined $150 million in educational funding aimed at growing the semiconductor industry regionally and nationally.
Construction is expected to accelerate following Congress’ approval last month of a package boosting the semiconductor industry and scientific research in a bid to create more high-tech jobs in the United States and help it better compete with international rivals. It includes more than $52 billion in grants and other incentives for the semiconductor industry as well as a 25% tax credit for those companies that invest in chip plants in the U.S.
For the central Ohio project, all 7,000 workers aren’t required right away. They’re also only a portion of what will be needed as the Intel project transforms hundreds of largely rural acres about 30 minutes east of Columbus.
Just six months after Intel revealed the Ohio operation, for example, Missouri-based VanTrust Real Estate announced it was building a 500-acre (200-hectare) business park next door to house Intel suppliers. The site’s 5 million square feet (464,515 square meters) is equivalent to nearly nine football fields. Other projects for additional suppliers are expected.
California-based Intel will rely on lessons learned in building previous semiconductor sites nationally and globally to ensure enough construction workers, the company said in a statement.
“One of Intel’s top reasons for choosing Ohio is access to the region’s robust workforce,” the company said. “It will not be without its challenges, but we are confident there is enough demand that these jobs will be filled.”
Labor leaders and state officials acknowledge there’s not currently a pool of 7,000 extra workers in central Ohio, where other current projects include a 28-story Hilton near downtown Columbus, a $2 billion addition to The Ohio State University’s medical center, and a $365 million Amgen biomanufacturing plant not far from the Intel plant.
And that’s not counting at least three new Google and Amazon data centers, plans for a new $200 million municipal courthouse south of downtown Columbus and solar array projects that could require nearly 6,000 construction jobs by themselves.
Federal data shows about 45,000 home and commercial construction workers in central Ohio. That number increased by 1,800 from May 2021 to May 2022, meaning a future deficit given current and future demands.
(asterisk)I don’t know of a single commercial construction company that’s not hiring,” said Mary Tebeau, executive director of the Builders Exchange of Central Ohio, a construction industry trade association.
Offsetting the imbalance are training programs, a push to encourage more high school students to enter the trades, and pure economics. Including overtime, pay for skilled tradespeople could hit $125,000 annually, said Dorsey Hager, executive secretary-treasurer of the Columbus Building Trades Council.
Or as Lt. Gov. Jon Husted, the state’s economic development point person, puts it, the Intel project is so big and lucrative it will create opportunities for people who didn’t see construction jobs in their future.
“When you’re willing to pay people more to do something, you will find the talent,” he said.
In addition to new and out-of-state workers, some will likely be pulled from the residential construction industry, thinning out an already short supply of homebuilders, said Ed Brady, CEO of the Washington, D.C.-based Home Builders Institute.
That creates a housing shortage risk that could slow the very type of economic development that Intel is sparking, said Ed Dietz of the National Association of Home Builders.
“How do you attract those business investments if you can’t also provide additional housing available for the growth in the labor force?” he said.
Central Ohio is expected to reach 3 million residents by 2050, a rate that would require 11,000 to 14,000 housing units a year. That was before Intel was announced, said Jennifer Noll, the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission’s associate director for community development. Meanwhile, the closest the region came to hitting that goal was in 2020 with 11,000 units.
“We know we’ve got some work to do as a region,” Noll said.
Shortage or not, work is underway at and near the Intel site, where parades of trucks rumbled down country roads on a recent August morning as the beeping of multiple construction vehicles sounded in the distance.
It was just another day for pipe layer Taylor Purdy, who made his regular 30-minute drive from Bangs, Ohio, to his construction job helping widen a road running alongside the Intel plant.
Purdy, 28, spends his days in trenches helping position storm and sanitary sewers and waterlines. Overtime is plentiful as deadlines approach.

Floodwaters overtake trucks and cars in downtown Dallas as flash flooding threat persists
By Monica Garrett, Michelle Krupa and Caroll Alvarado, CNN
Flooding overwhelmed cars and trucks early Monday on interstates in downtown Dallas as flash flooding continues to threaten into the morning rush hour.
Though the heaviest rain has moved out, flash flooding is due to continue for a few more hours as broader flood watches Monday cover over 13 million people from northeastern Texas into northern Louisiana and far southern Arkansas from the same system that unleashed heavy rain and flash floods this weekend in parts of the Southwest.
Fast-rising water trapped vehicles around 3 a.m. CT (4 a.m. ET) on Interstate 30 in Dallas, said Cassondra Anna Mae Stewart, who took video of the dark, watery scene.
“I was able to back up on a ramp to get off the highway,” she said. “I took an alternate route home … although most streets are flooded down there as well.”
Around that time, “trained weather spotters reported major flash flooding ongoing across Dallas with numerous roads and cars submerged, including Interstate 30 at Interstate 45 near downtown Dallas,” according to a flash flood warning statement issued at 3:21 a.m. CT (4:21 a.m. ET).
Dallas County remains under a flash flood warning, with a considerable flood threat Monday until 8 a.m. CT (9 a.m. ET). Two more flash flood warnings covered Ellis County south of Dallas this morning, after up to 5 inches of rain was estimated to have fallen there.
An estimated 8 inches of rain has drenched downtown Dallas since Sunday evening, according to rainfall estimates, with more than 6.5 inches pouring down at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and more than 6 inches at Dallas Love Field.
Cities in Monday’s flood watch area include Dallas, Fort Worth and Austin, Texas, and Shreveport, Louisiana. The region is under a moderate — Level 3 of 4 — risk of excessive rainfall. Rainfall rates of 2 to 3 inches per hour have been observed as storms move slowly across the area, creating the potential for up to 3 to 5 inches of rainfall.
Rain persisted Sunday in parts of Arizona and New Mexico following floods in prior days in parts of the Southwest.
In Utah, hikers Friday were “swept off their feet” in Zion National Park by a flash flood. Search and rescue team members were working to find a missing hiker near the Virgin River, the park said Saturday.
In New Mexico, about 160 people had to shelter in place for several hours at Carlsbad Caverns National Park Saturday because of flash flooding, the City of Carlsbad said in a Facebook post.
The park was closed Sunday, the National Park Service said. “Maintenance crews will begin to assess and clean debris from the roadway,” the National Park Service added.

HARRISBURG, Pa., Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Medical Marijuana Access and Patient Safety, Inc. issued the following statement on the Pennsylvania Department of Health's withdrawal of its appeal to recall certain vaporized medical marijuana products:
On August 17, 2022, the Pennsylvania Department of Health ("DOH") voluntarily withdrew its appeal of the preliminary injunction granted to Medical Marijuana Access and Patient Safety, Inc.'s ("MMAPS") to recall certain vaporized medical marijuana products (the "June 2 Order"). All products impacted by the June 2 Order can continue to be produced and sold through licensed dispensaries across the Commonwealth.
The ruling follows an order granting MMAPS's application to Vacate Automatic Supersedeas (the "June 15 Order"), which reinstated the Court's June 2, 2022 preliminary injunction against the DOH's recall.
In the June 2 Order, the Court concluded that DOH "failed to present any evidence to the Court of potential harm to medical marijuana patients due to the recalled products, or more specifically due to the addition of terpenes to these products." Furthermore, the Court identified that the DOH "did not call any witnesses during the preliminary injunction hearing or present any evidence regarding patient complaints or adverse events suffered due to the recalled products containing terpenes." The withdrawal of the appeal reaffirms this conclusion. In light of these facts, MMAPS believes the DOH should drop the remaining litigation to prevent further confusion and increased costs for patients.
MMAPS has submitted Right-To-Know Requests seeking to obtain any information or documents that would have supported the DOH's recall, but to date the DOH has resisted producing any information to support its decisions related to these products.
Earlier this year MMAPS, a coalition of patients, caregivers, doctors, industry members and advocates seeking to ensure safe, reliable access to medical marijuana in the Commonwealth, took the extraordinary step of filing a complaint against DOH over its unsupported recall of certain vaporized medical marijuana products because patients rely on the recalled products to relieve symptoms of serious medical conditions. Filings in the case can be found at www.pennmmaps.com.

The new low-global-warming-potential (GWP) solution for automobile air conditioning systems helps reduce servicing time, cost and eliminates call-backs, increasing customer satisfaction
MORRIS PLAINS, N.J., Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell (Nasdaq: HON) today announced that its new Solstice® yf UV — a low-global-warming-potential (GWP) refrigerant incorporating ultraviolet (UV) dye for leak detection support in automobile air conditioning systems — is now available at all participating NAPA Auto Parts stores across the United States. This is the first time Solstice yf (R-1234yf) refrigerant with UV dye will be available in the aftermarket.
The automotive service industry has traditionally used UV dye as a valuable tool to identify and repair air conditioning system leaks. With UV dye incorporated in Solstice yf, the solution provides precise leak detection, shortened service times, accurate repair verification and eliminates call-backs, increasing customer satisfaction. Solstice yf UV uses the same UV dye that car makers use on assembly lines and will allow service technicians to save time and money when servicing vehicles that were built with R-1234yf.
By the end of 2022, R-1234yf refrigerant will be used in almost 200 million cars on the road globally and in more than 95% of all new vehicles sold in the United States. By 2025, it is estimated that more than 100 million cars using R-1234yf will be on the roads in the United States, significantly expanding R-1234yf servicing opportunities for automotive shops.
"At NAPA Auto Parts, we are always looking for opportunities to carry new and innovative tools that help our customers repair vehicles faster and with ease. Honeywell's Solstice yf UV is exactly that type of product, and it has the benefit of being better for the environment," said Mike Pettyjohn, senior category manager for NAPA Auto Parts.
"As the first manufacturer to offer low-GWP R-1234yf with UV dye to the automotive industry, Honeywell is dedicated to supporting our end-user customers in their environmental transformations while helping them reduce costs and improve customer satisfaction scores," said Ken West, president of Honeywell Advanced Materials. "With NAPA Auto Parts as our retail launch partner, we are expanding our reach to support customers across the United States, strengthening our commitment to supplying the automotive aftermarket with ready-now solutions that have lower greenhouse gas emissions without sacrificing product performance."
Honeywell's Solstice yf UV is manufactured in the United States and is commercially available today at participating NAPA Auto Parts stores in 8-ounce cans as well as in 10- and 25-pound cylinders.
Honeywell has invested a billion dollars in research, development and new capacity for its Solstice technology, having anticipated the need for lower-GWP solutions to combat climate change more than a decade ago. The product line, which helps customers lower their greenhouse gas emissions and improve energy efficiency without sacrificing end-product performance, includes refrigerants for supermarkets, air conditioning for cars and trucks, blowing agents for insulation, propellants for personal and household care and solvents for cleaning solutions.
Customers utilizing Solstice technology have avoided the potential release of the equivalent of more than 260 million metric tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, equal to eliminating the potential emissions from more than 55 million cars for one year.
Honeywell is committed to achieving carbon neutrality in its operations and facilities by 2035 and recently announced a new set of commitments that further advance its sustainability goals, including a science-based target with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) that includes scope 3 emissions and participation in the U.S. Department of Energy's Better Climate Challenge. The company also supports the Paris Climate Agreement. These efforts build on the company's track record of sharply reducing the greenhouse gas intensity of its operations and facilities as well as its decades-long history of innovation to help its customers meet their environmental and social goals. About 60% of Honeywell's new product introduction research and development investment is directed toward products that improve environmental and social outcomes for customers.

JERUSALEM (AP) — Shalom Cohen, a prominent rabbi and spiritual leader of Israel's ultra-Orthodox Shas political party, has died. He was 91.
Cohen was born in Jerusalem to a prestigious religious rabbi and headed a Jewish seminary before joining the newly formed Shas party in the 1980s. He was an outspoken critic of modern Israeli society, including Israel's national anthem. He called for his community members to refrain from using smartphones or undertake secular post-high school academic studies.
Cohen died Monday at Jerusalem's Hadassah Medical Center, the hospital confirmed. It did not provide a cause of death.
After the death of the party's founder, Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, in 2013, Cohen became the party's spiritual leader.
Thousands were expected to attend his funeral later on Monday at Jerusalem's Sanhedriya Cemetery.
The ultra-Orthodox Shas party has long played kingmaker in Israeli politics, a position that has solidified Orthodox Judaism's monopoly over many aspects of daily life — from public transportation on the Jewish Sabbath and holidays, to marriage and divorce. For the past decade, the party has been a stalwart ally of former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Shas party chairman Aryeh Deri, who resigned from politics last year after accepting a plea deal over tax offenses, wrote on Twitter following the announcement of Cohen's death, “woe to the world that has lost its leader and woe to the ship that has lost its captain.” | https://www.ourmidland.com/news/article/Israeli-ultra-Orthodox-party-s-spiritual-leader-17389071.php | 2022-08-22T12:41:20Z | https://www.ourmidland.com/news/article/Israeli-ultra-Orthodox-party-s-spiritual-leader-17389071.php | true |
An Innovative Program that Provides Hospital Level Care in the Patient's Home
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sena Health is pleased to announce that it has been selected to support the "Salem Acute Care at Home" Program. This Program combines expert care and advanced technology to provide non-fragmented services, focusing on patient needs in the comfort of their home.
"Salem Acute Care at Home" allows eligible patients to remain at home while receiving hospital-level care from physicians and nurses. During the episode of care, patients receive in person home visits and have telehealth encounters with trained health care providers. Remote patient monitoring using high-tech equipment is employed and patients have contact with Care Coordinators around the clock. Access to the Coordinators in the Sena Command Center is available to patients and their families 24/7/365.
"The Sena team offers a turnkey solution to our partners to deliver Hospital level care in the comfort of their patients' home," said Dr Anthony Wehbe, CEO of Sena Health. "We know healthcare leaders have many competing priorities, and we want to make this an easy process to setup a Healing at Home program."
To be enrolled in the Salem Acute Care at Home Program, patients must be seen and evaluated in the Emergency Department and meet certain eligibility criteria to be safely cared for at home. During their time in the Program, patients receive at least two in-person nursing visits per day, and they connect with dedicated members of the clinical team, just as they would in a hospital.
"The Salem Acute Care at Home program allows us to deliver high quality care to the diverse communities we serve," said Dr. Tammy Torres, CEO of Salem Medical Center. The program saw its first patient in July and was able to support her and her family at home. "We cared for a patient with congestive heart failure in the comfort of her home, where otherwise she would have been admitted to the hospital," said Dr Wamiq Sultan, Chief Medical Officer of Salem Medical Center. "The patient, family, and clinician experience were seamless, as we all felt continuously supported by the team at Sena Health."
The program will continue to support the local communities of Salem County and beyond, as they add more services in the home.

CARLSBAD, Calif., Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Viasat Inc. (NASDAQ: VSAT), a global communications company, today announced it was awarded a $99 million order for Multifunctional Information Distribution System (MIDS) Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) terminals from U.S. Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) on behalf of the MIDS Program Office.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck said “I do” again this weekend.
But instead of in a late night Las Vegas drive through chapel, this time it was in front of friends and family in Georgia, a person close to the couple who was not authorized to speak publicly said Sunday.
According to People Magazine, the wedding was held at Affleck’s home outside of Savannah, Georgia, with all of their kids present for the proceedings on Saturday.
The celebrity couple were officially married last month in Las Vegas, which Lopez shared with fans in her “On the J Lo” newsletter.
“Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient,” Lopez wrote last month, signing off as Jennifer Lynn Affleck.
Lopez, 53, and Affleck, 50, famously dated in the early 2000s. They starred together in 2003′s “Gigli” and 2004′s “Jersey Girl” and became engaged but didn’t wed at the time.
Paparazzi has feverishly trailed the couple since they rekindled their romance last year, from the earliest stages of the courtship, to their red carpet debut at last year’s Venice International Film Festival and their recent honeymoon in Paris.
Representatives for the couple did not immediately respond to request for comment Sunday. | https://www.kxnet.com/entertainment-news/ap-entertainment/lopez-and-affleck-celebrate-marriage-with-friends-family/ | 2022-08-22T12:43:24Z | https://www.kxnet.com/entertainment-news/ap-entertainment/lopez-and-affleck-celebrate-marriage-with-friends-family/ | true |
When it comes to outlet malls, what's not to love? They offer names, great fashion, and lower prices than at the mall.
And in these inflationary times, they can be a great option for saving money on your favorite brands.
But it's important to know that the items you see at an outlet store might not be the same items you'd find at the mall.
And that means you're not always getting the same merchandise you see in department stores, according to a report by the Krazy Coupon Lady.
Heather Wheeler, the co-founder of the Krazy Coupon Lady shopping blog, says many outlets no longer sell overstock items as they did in the past but rather less expensive versions of the company's products.
"Outlet stores are great, but you have to know what you are doing before you go in," she said. "It's made just a little bit cheaper, and a little bit like a knockoff would be made."
How to know if it is outlet merchandise
Wheeler says the merchandise is not always of inferior quality, but it may have fewer buttons, less stitching, and thinner fabric.
And a report in the Krazy Coupon Lady may help shoppers spot the telltale signs.
For instance, she says, Banana Republic factory items have three small diamonds under the name on the tag.
"You'll see that it has 3 diamonds, at GAP it has three squares, at J Crew you will see it has 2 diamonds. And so you just kind of have to look."
With handbags, she says, stores have a different system.
On Kate Spade bags, a square with a hollowed-out spade on the front usually means it's an outlet item.
On Coach bags, Wheeler says an "F" in the serial number means "made-for-outlet."
Can't remember? Wheeler's tip is to do a quick online search.
"You can just Google before you head into the store. Ask it what does the 'insert the store name,' mean and then the factory or the outlet tag look like."
We reached out to all the companies named in the Krazy Coupon Lady report and received responses from two.
A spokesperson from Banana Republic told us its specialty and factory stores are "two separate business units with distinct strategies that ladder up under the Banana Republic brand."
A Coach spokesperson told us, "our outlet stores are merchandised with a mix of products that our outlet customers are looking for."
So remember that outlets can mean big savings, but it is a good idea to inspect the quality of the merchandise before you buy, so you don't waste your money.

"Our outlet stores are merchandised with a mix of product that our outlet customers are looking for.

At our outlet stores we don't differentiate between the source of our products, as each item, and its features, stands on its own."
FULL STATEMENT FROM BANANA REPUBLIC --
"In September 2021, Banana Republic announced a bold reset for the brand with a commitment to elevate all product and bring new customers into the brand while serving existing customers in fresh and creative ways. While we are showing up in a more dynamic way as one brand across Banana Republic Specialty and Banana Republic Factory, these are two separate business units with distinct strategies that ladder up under the Banana Republic brand.

Defense in school shooter’s trial set to present its case
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — The prosecution spent three weeks telling jurors how Nikolas Cruz murdered 14 students and three staff members at a Florida high school four years ago. Now his attorneys will get their chance to present why they believe he did it, hoping to get him sentenced to life without parole instead of death.
Melisa McNeill, Cruz’s lead public defender, is expected to give her opening statement Monday, having deferred its presentation from the start of the trial a month ago.
She and her team will then begin laying out their 23-year-old client’s life history: his birth mother’s abuse of alcohol and cocaine during her pregnancy, leading to possible fetal alcohol syndrome; his severe mental and emotional problems; his alleged sexual abuse by a “trusted peer;” the bullying he endured; and his adoptive father’s death when he was 5 and his adoptive mother’s four months before his Feb. 14, 2018, attack at Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
McNeill’s decision to delay her opening statement appeared part of a broader strategy to not deny or lessen anything prosecutors told jurors about Cruz’s massacre — he pleaded guilty in October to 17 counts of first-degree murder. This trial is only to decide his sentence; the seven-man, five woman jury will consider whether the prosecution’s aggravating circumstances “outweigh” the defense’s mitigating factors.
The defense is “going to say, ‘Look, you saw what happened — we are not going to argue that. It was horrible, that was awful, that was horrific, whatever adjectives you want to use,” said David S. Weinstein, a Miami defense attorney and former prosecutor. But then the defense will add: “He never had a chance and, because of that, his poor victims never had a chance.’”
This is the deadliest U.S. mass shooting to ever reach trial. Nine other gunmen who killed at least 17 people died during or immediately after their shootings, either by suicide or police gunfire. The suspect in the 2019 slaying of 23 people at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, is awaiting trial.
During the prosecution’s case, McNeill’s team never cross-examined any teacher or student who witnessed the slayings and only had brief, mild exchanges with a few other witnesses.
They asked one teacher from a classroom where no one was shot about the lack of a security monitor in the three-story building where the slayings happened. When the gun store owner who sold Cruz the AR-15-style semiautomatic rifle used in the killings testified, they asked what Florida’s minimum age was in 2017 to buy a rifle — 18 — and today — 21.
Neither they nor the prosecutors then asked the store owner why the law was changed: Cruz was 19 when the shooting happened and the Republican-led Legislature raised the age limit as part of a larger package of gun laws enacted in response to the shootings.
Cruz’s youth will be part of his defense and while Circuit Judge Elizabeth Scherer has barred the defense from presenting testimony that directly casts blame on third parties like school administrators for not preventing the shooting, McNeill and her team will likely try to indirectly make such points.
ADVERTISEMENT
To get Cruz a life sentence, the defense will only have to persuade one of the 12 jurors, but they will have to do it on all 17 counts, one for each victim. It is possible, for example, a reluctant juror might be pushed to vote for death on victims who surveillance video showed Cruz shot multiple times as they lay wounded and helpless.
The defense will be trying to overcome the horrendous evidence that was laid out by the prosecution, capped by the jurors’ Aug. 4 visit to the fenced-off building that Cruz stalked for seven minutes, firing about 150 shots down halls and into classrooms. The jurors saw dried blood on floors and walls, bullet holes in doors and windows and remnants of Valentine’s Day balloons, flowers and cards.
Prosecutors also presented graphic surveillance videos of the massacre; gruesome crime scene and autopsy photos from its aftermath; emotional testimony from teachers and students who witnessed others die; and four days of tearful and angry statements from parents, spouses and other family members about the victims and how their loved one’s death affected their lives. Jurors also watched video of Cruz calmly ordering a cherry and blue raspberry Icee minutes after the shooting and, nine months later, attacking a jail guard.
It is unknown how long the defense presentation will take, but they said in court recently that it will last past Labor Day in two weeks. The prosecution will then get to present a rebuttal case before it goes to the jury.

Enhancements Designed to Provide a More Robust and Streamlined Solution for CRAs
ATLANTA, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Appriss Insights, an Equifax® (NYSE: EFX) company, has launched enhancements to its CrimSmart™ and TraceSmart™ products, which are solutions designed to help background screening firms provide faster results and reduce dead-end investigations, shrink coverage gaps, and expand address history data used by background screeners.
"CrimSmart and TraceSmart are changing how the background screening industry gathers and optimizes national-criminal and address history data," said Brian Matthews, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Appriss Insights, an Equifax company. "These next-generation products and their unique features lead to faster results and fewer dead-end investigations. They are innovative, data-driven solutions that will help background screeners make better decisions."
CrimSmart is a national criminal pointer solution that provides traditional criminal records alongside Appriss Insights' incarceration records. The solution's algorithm helps point background screening firms to criminal records they may typically ignore during the background screening process due to lack of available matching identifiers. Background screeners engaged in early testing with CrimSmart have identified up to 13% more high-confidence records per search.
TraceSmart produces a measurable lift compared to traditional address history solutions. Unlike conventional pointer products, TraceSmart delivers incarceration records apart from traditional address trace information, allowing background screeners to potentially uncover additional jurisdictions where further research is warranted. Early adopters of TraceSmart have reported up to 30% more high-confidence jurisdiction matches per search.
The CrimSmart and TraceSmart enhancements include newly released individual filtering options that allow background screeners to customize the kind of information they receive from search results to help drive more efficient decisions. Each product is a stand-alone solution, but they are most effective when implemented as a bundled pair that forms a comprehensive name and jurisdiction development solution.
Both CrimSmart and TraceSmart are available to background screening firms. Learn more about how Appriss Insights data supports background screeners at the Appriss Insights website.
Appriss Insights, an Equifax Company, delivers breakthrough data and analytics solutions to reduce people-based risk, mitigate fraud and meet compliance mandates.

BEIJING (AP) — Brush fires have forced the evacuation of more than 1,500 people in southwest China and power rationing for factories has reportedly been extended as weeks of record heat and drought batter the region.
Some shopping malls in the megacity of Chongqing have been ordered closed for most of the day to reduce electricity demand, state broadcaster CCTV said, limiting opening hours to 4 to 9 p.m.
The drought and heat have wilted crops and caused rivers including the giant Yangtze to shrink, disrupting cargo traffic and reducing power supply from hydroelectric dams at a time of soaring demand for air conditioning. State media say the government will try to protect the autumn grain harvest, which is 75% of China’s annual total, by shooting chemicals into clouds to try to generate rain.
The disruption adds to challenges for the ruling Communist Party, which is trying to shore up sagging economic growth before a meeting this fall at which President Xi Jinping is expected to be given a third five-year term as party leader.
There was no public announcement of the extension of power rationing in Sichuan province into a second week, but it was detailed in a company statement and a government notice to companies that was reported by Chinese news outlets.
The “tense situation” of power supplies in Sichuan province “has further intensified,” Tencent News said Monday in a report that included a photo of the government notice.
LIER Chemical Co. said in an announcement through the stock exchange in the southern city of Shenzhen that its facilities in the cities of Jinyang and Guang’an in Sichuan received an order extending power rationing through Thursday.
Factories in Sichuan that make processor chips, solar panels, auto components and other industrial goods were required to shut down or reduce activity last week to conserve power for homes as air conditioning demand surged in temperatures as high as 45 degrees Celsius (113 degrees Fahrenheit). Air conditioning, elevators and lights were shut off in offices and shopping malls.
In Shanghai, a factory and shipping hub on China’s east coast, Tesla Ltd. and a major state-owned automaker suspended production last week due to disruption in supplies of components from Sichuan, the Shanghai city government said.
Sichuan, with 94 million people, is especially hard-hit because it gets 80% of its power from hydroelectric dams. Other provinces rely more on coal-fired power, which isn’t affected.
Economists say if Sichuan reopens relatively soon, the national impact should be limited because the province accounts for only 4% of China’s industrial output.
The Chinese government says this summer is China’s hottest and driest since it began keeping temperature and rainfall records in 1961. Temperatures have exceeded 40 degrees Celsius (104 Fahrenheit) for the past week and longer.
Brush fires in outlying areas of Chongqing, which borders Sichuan, are the latest scourge resulting from the heat and drought.
More than 1,500 residents had been moved to shelters, while around 5,000 civilian and military personnel had been mobilized to put out the blazes, the official Xinhua News Agency said Monday.
Helicopters have been sent to drop water on the fires, supporting crews on the ground who have in the past been left to their own resources.
In 2019, a wildfire in the mountains of Sichuan province killed 30 firefighters and volunteers.
No deaths have yet been reported as a result of the heat wave, Xinhua said, although that could not be independently verified. | https://cw33.com/business/ap-business/china-extends-power-rationing-for-factories-in-drought/ | 2022-08-22T12:51:08Z | https://cw33.com/business/ap-business/china-extends-power-rationing-for-factories-in-drought/ | false |
WARSAW, Poland (AP) — On March 8, nearly two weeks after Russia invaded Ukraine, Taisiia Mokrozub took her infant son, parted from her husband and joined an exodus to safety in Poland. She believed the war would end quickly and she would be home by May.
But a half-year later, with shelling near a nuclear power plant in her hometown of Zaporizhzhia, and the front line so close, the 36-year-old’s husband is telling her to stay in Poland with their now-11-month-old baby. She now dreams of being home by winter, hoping Ukraine will have prevailed by then against Russia’s onslaught.
As the war reaches the sixth-month mark Wednesday, many refugees are facing the sad realization that they will not be going home soon, if they have homes to return to at all. With missiles falling even far from the front line, many wouldn’t feel safe yet, even in areas under Ukrainian control.
So they are biding their time, waiting for the end of a war that shows no signs of ending soon, longing for home and refusing to think too far into the future.
With a new academic year starting, some are reluctantly enrolling their children in schools abroad, worried they will fall behind in the Ukrainian system. Others take jobs below their skill levels. With most refugees being women, those with very young children, like Mokrozub, are unable to work.
“It seems to me that not only for me but for all Ukrainians, time has stopped,” Mokrozub said. “We all live in some kind of limbo.”
Russia’s invasion has created the largest refugee crisis in Europe since World War II. The UN refugee agency says a third of Ukrainians have fled their homes, with more than 6.6 million displaced within the country and over 6.6 million more across the continent.
European countries have welcomed them without the political backlash that met influxes of refugees from the Middle East and Africa in past years, however.
Poland has taken in the most Ukrainians, with an estimated 1.5 million having registered for national ID numbers that allow them social benefits. Germany, which doesn’t require visas for Ukrainians, has registered more than 900,000, though it isn’t clear how many of those may have gone home or headed elsewhere.
Warsaw now has 180,000 Ukrainian refugees — representing a tenth of the Polish capital’s population of 1.8 million — the largest single grouping anywhere.
Though Ukrainian and Russian — which is also commonly spoken back home — are heard on the city’s streets and grocery stores now carry some Ukrainian foods, the newcomers have integrated with little trouble and seem almost invisible.
For many of the refugees, Poland’s Slavic language and culture offer something familiar and reassuring. The country’s proximity to Ukraine makes it possible to travel back for short visits with husbands and fathers who are banned from leaving due to the war effort.
“We didn’t want to go farther,” said Galina Inyutina, 42, who arrived in Poland in early March from Dnipro with her 11-year-old son. They long terribly for their forests and fields and food.
“Mom, if we go farther away then it will take us longer to get home,” he told her.
The arrival of so many people has exacerbated a preexisting housing crisis in Warsaw, where rental prices have surged 30% over the last year, as well as other cities that have attracted large numbers of refugees.
In the early days of the war, hundreds of thousands of Polish families took Ukrainians, often total strangers, into their homes. Thanks to that hospitality, there was never a need for refugee camps, said Oksana Pestrykova, who administers a consultation center at the Ukrainian House in Warsaw, a social center for immigrants.
But what were expected to be short stays have turned into long ones, and some Poles are now calling the center’s hotline to ask for help from Ukrainian speakers to tell their guests it’s time to move on.
“The hospitality is getting weaker,” Pestrykova said. “We understand it and we were expecting it.”
Some corporations are stepping in to help.
The global tech company Siemens transformed office space at its Polish headquarters to create hotel-style accommodations for nearly 160 people, administered by the Warsaw city government. The facility is clean, with food and laundry facilities provided for free.
Among those living there now is Ludmila Fedotova, a 52-year-old shop assistant from Zaporizhzhia. She is terrified about what is happening back home but can at least relax knowing she has housing and food as she looks for work.
While there might not be enough housing for all the newcomers, there are more than enough jobs in an economy that has boomed in the post-communist era. Ukrainian immigrants who came to Poland in recent years are sometimes the ones helping the new arrivals with work and a place to live.
Oleh Yarovyi, from Khmelnytskyi in western Ukraine, arrived six years ago and has built up a coffee shop franchise with his wife. As they expand, he has lost some Ukrainian men helping with construction who returned to fight in the war, but he has been able to hire Ukrainian women who can use their language in a job they hope is temporary.
“Half of them plan to go back, so they don’t even try to learn Polish,” Yarovyi said. “They just look for a simple job without any additional challenges.”
Tetiana Bilous, 46, who ran a short-term apartment rental business in Vinnytsia, Ukraine, is among those working in one of Yarovyi’s kitchens. She fled two days into the war, joining a grown daughter already in Warsaw. She missed her husband and returned home for a two-week visit, but was terrified by the bombardments and air raid sirens.
Bilous remains torn over what her next steps should be, saying, “Everything is uncertain.”
Farther west, in Schwerin, Germany, Marina Galla, a computer science teacher who left Mariupol with her 13-year-old son in late March, has found relief and stability. Last month they moved into a small rooftop apartment after a long escape that took them through Poland and Berlin.
She is free from the horrors and the deprivation from which she fled: the bodies in the streets, drinking melted snow because there was no running water. Yet she feels crushed with sadness thinking of family left behind.
In a black backpack she has carried every day since leaving Mariupol, Galla keeps a handwritten note in a side pocket listing contact information for her mother, father and grandmother. She originally wrote it in case she was killed in the war, and even in the safety of Schwerin, she doesn’t leave home without it.
Her son messaged a lot with his friends from back home during their first months in Germany, but he barely talks to them anymore and has stopped asking when they will return to Ukraine.
“He probably understands,” Galla said, “that we will not be able to go back there.”

DELTONA, Fla. (WFLA) — A Florida high schooler and his mother were arrested in an identity theft scheme that affected people across the nation, according to authorities.
The Volusia Sheriff’s Office said a 14-year-old boy and his mother stole personal and financial information belonging to 17 people.
Deputies said the Deltona High School student was initially investigated in May after threatening to kill a fellow student who didn’t pay money for the 14-year-old’s pyramid fraud scheme.
Further investigation found that the teen was buying people’s stolen personal and financial information online, including their social security numbers, credit card numbers, and logins for various banks and websites, the sheriff’s office said.
According to deputies, the underage suspect also had instructions on how to make forged money orders.
The sheriff’s office found 17 total victims of identity theft and grand theft from different parts of the country. Fifteen of the victims decided to press charges.
In addition, deputies said messages between the teen and his mother, 38-year-old Selena Wallace, showed her telling her son that while she wished he would use his abilities to make money legally, he needed to raise his prices for higher profits.
A search of their home found 12 laptops, four printers, four cell phones, several gaming systems and other technology, according to the sheriff’s office.
The teen was charged with 15 counts of identity theft, obtaining property by fraud, illegal use of credit cards and unlawful use of a two-way communication device. His mother was also arrested on principal charges for each count and a charge for contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Other charges are pending further investigation, deputies said. | https://cw33.com/news/nexstar-media-wire/florida-14-year-old-mom-charged-in-national-identity-theft-plot-deputies-say/ | 2022-08-22T12:53:08Z | https://cw33.com/news/nexstar-media-wire/florida-14-year-old-mom-charged-in-national-identity-theft-plot-deputies-say/ | false |
RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — With COVID-19 still affecting large segments of the population, knowing if you are infected with the virus remains critical, and many still rely on home test kits.
Many of the test kits sent out for free by the government early on had expiration dates of about six months after they were delivered.
However, those expiration dates may not be an indication that you need to throw the kit away. Depending on the brand, your test kit may still be good to use after its expiration date.
While the FDA certifies that home test kits are good for between four to six months, makers have been doing their own research, and new data indicates some brands will be accurate for longer than originally believed.
If the test kit maker can prove to the FDA the shelf life is good beyond the original expiration date, the agency can authorize an extended shelf life.
You can determine if your test kit is still effective beyond the original expiration date by checking the FDA’s list of tests with longer shelf lives. The FDA also includes how long the tests have been extended.
So far, it’s approved 22 brands. If your test kit is not on the list, you should adhere to the expiration date on the test’s packaging.
The FDA warns using an expired kit can create problems because most likely its components have degraded and you won’t get accurate results.
Three rounds of free COVID tests have been made available to Americans. If you haven’t already, you can request your tests at COVIDtests.gov. | https://www.cbs42.com/news/health/coronavirus/is-your-expired-covid-19-test-kit-still-good-heres-how-to-check/ | 2022-08-22T12:55:38Z | https://www.cbs42.com/news/health/coronavirus/is-your-expired-covid-19-test-kit-still-good-heres-how-to-check/ | true |

Housing Activity Expected to Soften Through 2023 Due to Higher Mortgage Rates and Home Price Gains
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Tightening monetary policy and elevated inflation remain the primary causes of a stagnating economy despite strong job growth, according to the August 2022 commentary from the Fannie Mae (OTCQB: FNMA) Economic and Strategic Research (ESR) Group. The ESR Group's latest forecast of real gross domestic product (GDP) growth for full-year 2022 and 2023 remained essentially flat compared to last month at 0.0 percent and negative 0.4 percent, respectively. The continued expectation that real GDP growth will be negative beginning in 2023 is due to the combined effects of tighter monetary policy weighing on business and residential investment and still-elevated inflation weighing on consumer spending. The ESR Group does expect inflation to slow gradually, with the headline Consumer Price Index forecast to average 7.2 percent annually by year-end 2022 and 1.8 percent by year-end 2023, but it notes the precariousness of predicting headline inflation due to energy price volatility and the possibility of renewed supply chain or manufacturing disruptions. The core personal consumption expenditure price index, the focus of the Federal Reserve, is expected to end 2023 at 2.9 percent.
The ESR Group expects total home sales to decrease 16.2 percent in 2022. This decline represents a further downward revision from last month's forecast of a 15.6 percent drop, as recent incoming data point to a faster slowdown in near-term sales than previously expected, despite mortgage rates having moved lower over the last few months. The latest forecast also projects total mortgage origination activity at $2.47 trillion in 2022, down from $4.47 trillion in 2021, and then a further reduced $2.29 trillion in 2023.
"The economy is progressing largely as we'd previously forecast," said Doug Duncan, Fannie Mae Senior Vice President and Chief Economist. "The near-term decline in gas prices has given consumers a chance to catch their breath and shift some spending elsewhere. Likewise, lower interest rates at the longer end of the yield curve should be supportive of the economy through the end of 2022, which is why we're forecasting modest economic growth in the second half. However, we maintain the view that a modest recession is likely to emerge in the new year as the labor market softens and the effects of tighter monetary policy are more acutely felt."
Duncan continued: "Housing remains clearly on the downtrend – and has been for several months now – due to the combined effects of outsized home price increases and the significant and rapid run-up in mortgage rates. The question for many market observers is how quickly, and with how much additional tightening, the core inflation rate will come down to the Fed's preferred target. In our view, the labor market's continued strength suggests that the Fed is likely to maintain its aggressive posture through the end of the year."

South Korean consumer electronics manufacturer Samsung Electronics has begun to voluntarily offer free repairs of its defective front-load washing machines whose doors are prone to explosion for Korean consumers, according to consumer watchdogs on Monday.
The organizations, the Korea Consumer Agency and Korean Agency for Technology and Standards, urged customers who bought three models of Samsung’s Bespoke Grande AI washers to “immediately request a repair” of glass doors to Samsung’s customer service channels. The request for repairs will be accepted from Monday until the end of November.
Samsung has manufactured 106,173 large home appliances that are subject to similar defects during the period of September 2021 and May this year, and 91,488 units of them have been sold to consumers in Korea.
Samsung has told the watchdogs that the glitch originates from loose attachment of an outer glass cover and an outer door frame, often caused by foreign substances in between, in its manufacturing process.
Samsung’s decision to offer repairs has tentatively stopped the watchdogs from taking the next step, which would be an investigation in response to a series of consumer complaints filed with the KCA over the shattered outer layer of the glass doors after the explosions. Some victims have also turned to online communities, where the accidents associated with defective washers have gone viral.
The KCA said Friday it has submitted a formal letter calling for an explanation.
Watchdogs Monday pledged to keep close tabs on Samsung‘s next steps on the matter.

Colorado-based company protects businesses of all sizes from data exfiltration due to compromised cryptographic secrets
DENVER, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Ntrinsec has announced the formal launch of its new key security automation platform. The platform eliminates security risks around encryption key reuse and poor key management. Integrating with third-party key management systems (KMS), hard security modules (HSMs), certificate authorities, and major cloud providers, Ntrinsec offers full automation around all key lifecycle processes. This ensures all keys adhere to best practices and it will make key compromise a thing of the past.
Automating machine identity secrets at scale, Ntrinsec has built a moving-target defense strategy that outmaneuvers cybercriminals in today's increasingly complex environments. Users can automatically and safely map all keys and host machines within the platform to ensure proper key hygiene and identify exploitable key reuse. Ntrinsec then powers intelligent crypto-reduction policies and creates anomaly detection and automation for quick remediation, effectively stopping data breaches before they even begin.
With a potent combination of technology and a team with decades of expertise, Ntrinsec is in a prime position to solve today's data protection challenges. "We are excited to introduce the world's first key security automation platform from Ntrinsec. Our goal is to protect organizations from data breaches, and this tool has the strength to do just that," said Ntrinsec CEO, Michael Leidesdorff. Ntrinsec's moving target defense approach is making sure that digital secrets are kept safe in perpetuity. "Bad actors are increasingly exploiting key hygiene issues like key-reuse and local wallets. With this attack vector quickly growing and industry standards calling only for annual key rotation, which is hopelessly out-of-date, a platform like Ntrinsec is needed now more than ever."
Headquartered in Denver, Colorado, Ntrinsec is founded by serial cybersecurity entrepreneurs with a track record of pioneering cloud automation technologies to tackle the tough challenges within the identity and secrets management space. Ntrinsec was founded with the explicit mission of protecting businesses of all sizes from data exfiltration due to compromised cryptographic secrets. Ntrinsec's platform is designed to make key compromise, increasingly a leading cause of enterprise data breaches, a thing of the past. For more information, visit https://ntrinsec.io/

Parents charged with murder after baby found buried in backyard
ERWIN, N.C. (WRAL) - A North Carolina couple is being charged with the murder of their baby after the child was found buried in a backyard.
Dustin Vandyke, 28, and Gracie Riddle, 18, are being charged with first-degree murder.
“Anytime you’re dealing with a death or homicide, it’s sad for everyone involved,” Erwin Police Chief Jonathan Johnson said.
Friday night, police in Erwin, North Carolina, got a tip about an unreported death on Moulton Spring Road.
After interviewing several people in the area, police were able to get a search warrant on the property. With the use of cadaver K-9s, they located an infant buried in the backyard.
“This person, and I’m sure there’s other people with knowledge of the incident through word of mouth or whatever, I think this person just finally got to a point where their conscious got to them and they decided they needed to talk about it and tell someone. And that’s how we initially got the report,” Johnson said.
The gender of the baby is unknown at this time and the death does not appear to be accidental.
“You just never know what somebody is going through or why somebody would do the things they do. You just have to be vigilant and report anything suspicious,” Johnson said.
Officials are waiting on autopsy results for a cause of death.
Johnson says this is an isolated incident and there is no danger to the public.

MOSCOW — Russia’s top counterintelligence agency on Monday blamed Ukrainian spy services for organizing the killing of the daughter of a leading Russian nationalist ideologue in a car bombing just outside Moscow.
Daria Dugina, the 29-year-old daughter of Alexander Dugin, a philosopher, writer and political theorist whom some in the West described as “Putin’s brain,” died when an explosive planted in her SUV exploded as she was driving Saturday night.
Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), the main KGB successor agency, said that Dugina’s killing had been “prepared and perpetrated by the Ukrainian special services.”
On Sunday, Ukraine’s presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak denied any Ukrainian involvement in the killing.
In Monday’s statement, the FSB accused a Ukrainian citizen, Natalya Vovk, of perpetrating the killing and then fleeing from Russia to Estonia.
The FSB said that the suspect, Natalya Vovk, arrived in Russia in July with her 12-year-old daughter and rented an apartment in the building where Dugina lived to shadow her. It said that Vovk and her daughter were at a nationalist festival, which Alexander Dugin and his daughter attended just before the killing.
The agency said that Vovk and her daughter left Russia for Estonia after Dugina’s killing, using a different vehicle license plate on their way out of the country.
Dugin has been a prominent proponent of the “Russian world” concept, a spiritual and political ideology that emphasizes traditional values, the restoration of Russia’s global clout and the unity of all ethnic Russians throughout the world. He has been vehemently supported Russian President Vladimir Putin’s move to send troops into Ukraine and urged the Kremlin to step up its operations in the country.
The explosion took place as Dugin’s daughter was returning from a cultural festival she had attended with him. Russian media reports cited witnesses as saying the SUV belonged to Dugin and that he had decided at the last minute to travel in another vehicle.
Breaking News Alerts
The car bombing, unusual for Moscow since the turbulent 1990s, is likely to aggravate tensions between Russia and Ukraine.
On Sunday, Denis Pushilin, head of the Russia-backed separatist “Donetsk People’s Republic” in Ukraine’s east, quickly blamed the blast on “terrorists of the Ukrainian regime, trying to kill Alexander Dugin.”
While Dugin’s exact ties to Putin are unclear, the Kremlin frequently echoes rhetoric from his writings and appearances on Russian state television. He helped popularize the “Novorossiya,” or “New Russia” concept that Russia used to justify the 2014 annexation of Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula and its support of separatist rebels in eastern Ukraine.
Dugin, who has been slapped with U.S. and European Union sanctions, has promoted Russia as a country of piety, traditional values and authoritarian leadership, and spoken with disdain about Western liberal values.
His daughter expressed similar views and had appeared as a commentator on nationalist TV channel Tsargrad, where Dugin had served as chief editor.
Dugina herself was sanctioned by the United States in March for her work as chief editor of United World International, a website that the U.S. described as a disinformation source. The sanctions announcement cited a United World article this year that contended Ukraine would “perish” if it were admitted to NATO.
In an appearance on Russian television just Thursday, Dugina said, “People in the West are living in a dream, in a dream given to them by global hegemony.” She called America “a zombie society” in which people opposed Russia but couldn’t find it on a map. | https://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/nationworld/ct-aud-nw-russia-ukraine-nationalist-killed-20220822-fa74irfndfajjdvbffo6nq2vqq-story.html | 2022-08-22T13:05:54Z | https://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/nationworld/ct-aud-nw-russia-ukraine-nationalist-killed-20220822-fa74irfndfajjdvbffo6nq2vqq-story.html | false |
Transaction will bring new broadband investment to 20-state region
DENVER, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has approved the previously announced sale of Lumen Technologies' (NYSE: LUMN) incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC) business in 20 states to Brightspeed.
With this approval, the transaction has now received all final regulatory clearances needed to close. Pending other customary closing conditions, the transaction with Apollo-managed funds (NYSE: APO) is expected to close early in the fourth quarter.
Brightspeed plans to make significant investments to build an expanded fiber optics network that will bring fast, reliable internet and Wi-Fi to communities throughout the 20-state footprint it is acquiring. These plans include providing fiber facilities that are expected to reach up to three million homes and businesses over the next five years, including in many rural and suburban locations where fiber and advanced technology have not yet been deployed.
Speed Read:
- On August 3, 2021, Lumen announced an agreement to sell its local consumer, small business, wholesale and enterprise customer ILEC operations in 20 states to Brightspeed.
- Brightspeed will gain a robust local network, as well as the operations and back-office support to meet the accelerating demand for high-bandwidth connectivity.
- Under the terms of the transaction, Lumen will retain its ILEC operations in 16 states, where it will continue to invest in bringing fiber broadband to more communities.
- Lumen will also retain its national fiber routes and associated networks in all of these states, as well as its international operations.
"This transaction will benefit all of these customers, both in Lumen's remaining 16-state footprint and in the 20 states moving to Brightspeed," said Melissa Mann, Lumen vice president of public policy and government affairs. "The FCC's approval is great news that will bring faster broadband speeds to customers across both companies."
"The FCC's approval paves the way for Brightspeed to help close the digital divide in communities across the country that are most in need of high-quality broadband," said Tom Dailey, Brightspeed vice president of public policy and government affairs. "This is a significant step in our journey to begin serving customers as Brightspeed. We appreciate the efforts of all the regulators and our Lumen counterparts who worked diligently with us over this past year to achieve this milestone. We look forward to building our fiber network and participating in programs that support affordability for our new customers."

Nicola Sturgeon: I hope latest council pay offer will end Edinburgh `disruption´
Nicola Sturgeon has said she hopes a new pay offer to local government workers will end the “disruption” in Edinburgh – where a strike by council staff has left litter bins overflowing.
At the same time as tourists have been flocking to the capital to enjoy the summer festivals, cleansing staff working for Edinburgh City Council went out on strike on Thursday August 18, as part of the protest over pay.
The walkout, the first in a series of protests planned by trade unions, is due to go on until August 30, with bins around the city already overflowing with rubbish as a result of not being emptied.
The action comes while Edinburgh is the “centre of the cultural world”, the First Minister said.
Ms Sturgeon stated: “Nobody wants to see the kind of disruption and impact of strikes that many people are witnessing in Edinburgh right now.”
But she said she hoped the improved pay deal, which would see wages increase by 5%, would resolve the dispute.

The local government body Cosla made the latest offer on Friday, and while unions have said they will consider the deal they warned it is still significantly below the current rate of inflation.
Alison Maclean of Unite noted: “While the 5% offer is an improvement, it is important to emphasise that it comes at a time when the broader retail price index has now hit a 40-year high at 12.3%.
“Unite’s local government committee will urgently consider this latest offer. At this juncture the strikes for next week continue as planned.”
Ms Sturgeon, speaking during a visit to Aberdeen, said: “We live in a really challenging time with inflation in double figures right now, which is why the Scottish Government is determined to deliver – as far as we can and to facilitate as far as we can – fair pay deals.
“We’ve provided – and the councils are the employers of the workers that you’re referring to right now – we’ve provided more resources to local authorities to try to facilitate a fairer pay deal and I’m glad to see that Cosla has now put on the table a 5% pay offer and I hope that now paves the way to these issues being resolved.” | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11134233/Nicola-Sturgeon-I-hope-latest-council-pay-offer-end-Edinburgh-disruption.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-22T13:06:46Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11134233/Nicola-Sturgeon-I-hope-latest-council-pay-offer-end-Edinburgh-disruption.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false |
