Leyton Orient boss Richie Wellens had a busy transfer deadline day and is likely to name new recruits Stephen Duke-McKenna and Jayden Wareham in his squad for the visit of Tranmere.
Guyana midfielder Duke-McKenna has signed a season-long loan deal from QPR, and Chelsea’s teenage striker Wareham has made a similar move across the capital.
One player who will not be present for the Sky Bet League Two leaders is forward Harry Smith, who has joined Exeter on loan for the rest of the campaign.
Aaron Drinan, last term’s top goalscorer, will challenge for a place after recovering from a quad injury and getting his first minutes of the season in Tuesday’s Papa John’s Trophy defeat to Oxford.
Liverpool striker Paul Glatzel and Southampton defender Dynel Simeu join the Tranmere squad after making deadline-day loan moves to Prenton Park.
Glatzel spent a loan spell at Rovers last season and scored six times in 21 appearances.
But boss Micky Mellon may be reluctant to change a winning formula after Rovers claimed their second league victory by beating Colchester last weekend.

MIAMI (AP) — In her 24 years as a school board member in Florida, Marta Perez proposed a Bible study class for students, opposed a measure to boost anti-racism curricula after the killing of George Floyd and spoke out against adopting a textbook that included pictures of contraceptive methods that she considered inappropriate for her 13-year-old granddaughter.
Her long record of supporting conservative causes, however, wasn’t enough to save her job after she wound up as a target of Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis. Perez lost her school board seat in Miami-Dade last week to a former teacher who was among a slate of candidates endorsed by DeSantis.
Perez believes she drew DeSantis' ire by voting for a school mask mandate a year into the pandemic, when Florida was in the grip of its deadliest wave of COVID-19. DeSantis opposes such policies.
“What it showed is that I was not in lockstep with the governor. I did not obey the governor, and that is unforgivable,” said Perez, who is 71.
More than almost any other national figure, DeSantis has led the charge in turning culture war fights over anti-racism policies, sexuality and COVID-19 restrictions in schools into national issues. More recently, he has inserted himself into school board races as he seeks to expand his sphere of influence and animate conservatives while running for reelection and considering a 2024 presidential bid.
Of the 30 candidates endorsed by DeSantis in the Aug. 23 elections, 19 won, five lost and six are headed to runoffs.
“We got involved to help candidates who were fighting the machine, fighting the lock-downers, fighting the forced-maskers, fighting the people that want to indoctrinate our kids,” DeSantis said in a victory speech on election night as the crowd cheered and clapped. “Parents are sick of the nonsense when it comes to education. We want the schools to educate kids.”
School board races are nonpartisan, but the governor’s involvement helped flip at least three Florida school boards from a liberal majority to a conservative majority. Five of his picks defeated incumbents affiliated with the Democratic Party, while others ran for open seats and at least two beat Republicans, including Perez, according to results posted by counties.
“He is trying to build this as part of his political brand,” said Sarah Reckhow, who teaches American politics and public policy at Michigan State University and specializes in education.
Reckhow noted that parents and others grew more aware of the role and importance of school board members during the COVID-19 pandemic, when districts were determining how and when children would return to the classrooms.
As calls for mandates and mask-wearing waned, the school debate shifted to how children are learning about race, gender and sexual orientation. In Virginia's gubernatorial election last year, Republican Glenn Youngkin defeated his Democratic opponent in part by seizing on parental frustrations about school closures and references to race in classrooms. The Texas Republican Party began endorsing candidates in nonpartisan school board races earlier this year.
DeSantis took it a step forward. He appeared at a summit held by the conservative group Moms for Liberty in July and built a roster of school board candidates starting with a questionnaire in which he asked them to sign a certificate to pledge their support to him.
DeSantis also traveled around the state in support of his picks. His Democratic opponent, Charlie Crist, followed suit, endorsing a much smaller slate of his own. Of the seven Crist endorsed, two incumbents won, two challengers lost and three candidates are heading to runoffs, including one against a DeSantis pick.
But it's DeSantis' wider efforts that have propelled him to the forefront of the culture wars.
Earlier this year, he championed a law that critics dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill that bans lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade, and he promoted a law called the “Stop WOKE Act” that prohibits teaching or business practices that contend members of one ethnic group are inherently racist and bars the notion that a person’s status as privileged or oppressed is necessarily determined by their race or gender. A judge later ruled that the “WOKE” law was an unconstitutional violation of free speech.
If the primary results are any indication, DeSantis’ education measures seem to be resonating with Florida voters.
The race for the school board seat in Miami-Dade between Perez and DeSantis' candidate, Monica Colucci, was one of the most contested, totaling about $400,000 in campaign contributions and more tied to political committees. Similar two-candidate school board races in Miami had drawn about half the money in recent elections.
DeSantis' sway in conservative circles is so pronounced that both Perez and Colucci used photos of him in their campaign materials. But it was Colucci, who worked in the DeSantis administration from 2019 to 2020 as a special assistant to Lt. Gov. Jeanette Nunez, who won his coveted endorsement.
This summer, DeSantis' political committee donated $150,000 to Nunez's political committee, which in turn made several payments totaling more than $350,000 to a consulting firm working for Colucci's campaign.
Nunez appeared alongside Colucci for events, ads and Spanish-language interviews. During a local TV interview with Colucci, Nunez said she has known her for years and answered most of the questions, with Colucci speaking less than a minute during the 10-minute segment.
Colucci’s political consultant said she was not available for an interview because she went away with her family after the election, and later said she would not be available until later in the year.
Jennifer Jenkins, a progressive Democrat and school board member in Brevard County who defeated a conservative incumbent in 2020, said she thinks DeSantis' push to add school board members who are friendly to his administration is an effort to further his agenda and keep his critics at bay.
“If he gets more seats, that’s more loyal Republicans,” Jenkins said.
Perez has been critical of DeSantis before. When he had been in office less than two months, she told a newspaper that the governor’s plans to expand scholarship programs that divert public school money to private institutions concerned her because she saw the public education system as “the equalizer” and “what has made the American system work.”
“In some things, you must serve the public in the best way you know how, and it does not mean you need to agree with every single decision,” she told The Associated Press.
Perez, a registered Republican who voted for DeSantis in 2018, said her run-in with the governor doesn't change her opinion of the GOP overall, although it has soured her on DeSantis.
However, Perez said she did not think she could go as far as to support Crist in November. She isn't sure who she will vote for.
Perez likes to joke that President Joe Biden's economic policies are going to force her to move in with her grown children, who are Democrats. She still feels her general philosophy and view of the world aligns her more with the Republican Party.
“I have to think that there are conservatives who believe in a democracy and believe in exchange of opinions," Perez said.

The Santa Fe High Demons defeated Los Alamos 3-2 on Saturday to improve to 4-0. It also represents the 19th straight win for the program, which is approaching a calendar year without losing.
The last time Santa Fe High lost came Sept. 10, 2021, in the semifinals of the Albuquerque Academy Invitational — a 3-1 loss to the eventual 4A champion Chargers. It just so happens the one-year anniversary of that match is Saturday, which would be the tournament’s championship.
Last year, the Demons rode the stellar talents of now-departed Alex Waggoner, who parlayed a 73-goal junior season into a spot on the New Mexico United Academy club team for his senior year. This year, they are doing it with a much more balanced approach.
Eight players have already found the back of the net, which took the entire season for the team to do last year. Four Demons already have at least two goals, and they have a 75 percent assist ratio on their 16 goals.
Santa Fe High head coach Chris Eadie said while Waggoner cannot be replaced, the group of midfielders might be as good, if not better, than last year’s group.
“We’re seeing this midfield is probably going to be more capable of having goals coming from those five, six, seven players,” Eadie said.
Saturday’s win begins a key stretch for Santa Fe High, which plays five matches in eight days, including that Academy tournament.

While St. Michael’s and Las Vegas Robertson are the clear co-favorites in Class 3A volleyball, a fellow District 2-3A rival could be a dark horse hovering on the horizon. The Lady Braves are 4-0 after sweeping Escalante on Tuesday, which is the program’s best start since starting the 2018 season 9-1.
This season marks the first under head coach Joseph Garcia, who replaced Brian Gurule when he was let go after 11 seasons.
SFIS will find out where it stands in the 3A pecking order at this weekend’s Tournament of Champions at Santa Fe High and Capital, and could possibly run into the Lady Horsemen and the Lady Cardinals.

The UNM men’s golf team is coming to a course near you. The Lobos will kick off (tee off?) their season with an intrasquad scrimmage Monday at the Los Alamos County Golf Course.
It’s a media-friendly event with the Lobos holding a press session at 11:30 a.m., followed by lunch and then a 2 p.m. intrasquad round.
The Lobos’ first tournament is later this week in Scottsdale, Ariz. They’ll be part of the Maui Jim Intercollegiate at the Mirabel Golf Club, then get a two-week break before hosting the William H. Tucker Intercollegiate at the UNM Championship Course on Sept. 23-24.
There are nine more tournaments spread between this fall and mid-April, not including the Mountain West Conference Championship in late April in Tucson, Ariz.

The New Mexico Fencing Foundation in Santa Fe will be hosting three-time Olympian Courtney Hurley for a clinic with local fencers Sept. 17-18.
She won a bronze at the 2012 summer games in London and was a four-time All-American while at Notre Dame. The 31-year-old was most recently part of Team USA’s contingent at the Tokyo Olympics.

Not a great start for the Mountain West.
Even worse considering the expansion of the College Football Playoff to 12 teams four years from now, a format that opens the door for a non-power league like the MWC to actually get a team into the playoff.
To get there, it’ll likely take a perfect season from whatever team comes out of the Mountain West — and even that might not be enough. It takes wins over teams from the Power 5 conferences to pad a résumé that’s inherently stacked against those who thumb their noses at giving a bid to a lesser-known team.
Through Week Zero and Week One this fall, the MWC had six games against Power 5 programs. They lost all of them. Some were expected — looking at you, Utah State and Colorado State. The Aggies were hammered by top-ranked Alabama on Saturday and the Rams were beaten by 44 in the Big House by Michigan.
Others truly smarted, like San Diego State’s loss to Arizona in the debut of the Aztecs’ brand-new stadium and Boise State’s 34-17 loss at Oregon State.
The Lobos will get their turn against the big boys with a Sept. 24 visit to LSU. It’s one of 10 games between the MWC and Power 5 before the end of the month. Road trips to Auburn, Iowa, Michigan and USC are sprinkled in there. | https://www.santafenewmexican.com/northern-notes-monday-sept-5-2022/article_d7fa46e0-2c86-11ed-ae04-a30319b89a33.html | 2022-09-05T05:35:32Z | https://www.santafenewmexican.com/northern-notes-monday-sept-5-2022/article_d7fa46e0-2c86-11ed-ae04-a30319b89a33.html | false |
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ryan Hollingshead scored early in the second half and Cristian Arango added a goal later in the half as LAFC defeated Real Salt Lake 2-0 on Sunday night.
LAFC (19-7-3) moved into a tie for the Supporters’ Shield (most regular-season points) with the Philadelphia Union.
The loss leaves RSL (11-9-9) tied with Portland for sixth place in the Western Conference. Portland defeated Atlanta 2-1 on Sunday. The regular season ends in early October.
Both teams next play Saturday. LAFC visits Dallas and RSL hosts D.C. United.

Funerals in Northern Ireland 'at risk of delay' unless laws extended
By Jayne McCormack
BBC News NI political correspondent
- Published
Funerals in Northern Ireland at are risk of delay unless laws to ease the death management process are extended, Stormont has been warned.
The legislation was introduced during the Covid pandemic to allow electronic certification instead of paper-based.
But without a functioning government it will expire on 24 September.
BBC News NI has seen a letter from the National Association of Funeral Directors to Stormont's finance department.
In it, the association's chief executive officer, Jon Levett, said allowing the deadline to lapse would have a "significantly negative effect" on how deaths are certified and processed in Northern Ireland.
It would mean a return to an in-person and paper-based system from 25 September.
'Increased pressure'
Mr Levett warned that would lead to "more pressure on our medical colleagues to complete the various forms".
And he added that it "will create increased pressure on funeral directors to ensure all relevant paperwork" is processed on time.
The letter continued: "With each of these individual processes, any issues that may arise will not be easily corrected.
"We are convinced this would have a significantly negative effect on the death management process, which would inevitably lead to delays in allowing families to bury their loved one."
When someone dies, a date for the funeral cannot be confirmed until after the death has been registered.
The association said it recognised that without a functioning government at Stormont it may be difficult to extend the legislation.
But Mr Levett added that it was "vitally important" to do so in order to avoid "the kind of delays being experienced in England and Wales", where the emergency Covid legislation was not retained after March 2022.
In response, Northern Ireland Finance Minister Conor Murphy said it had been his intention to extend the laws for another six months, with the agreement of other ministers.
But he added: "It does not look like this will be possible as there is currently no functioning assembly and the provisions will therefore fall."
He said he understood how beneficial changes to the system had proved over the past two years and that officials were exploring how to introduce new legislation "as promptly as possible".

COLOGNE, Germany (AP) — Lithuania protested its double-overtime loss to Germany at the EuroBasket tournament on Sunday, arguing that referees did not award it a free throw following a technical foul in regulation.
It was not immediately clear how, or if, FIBA would respond to the protest.
For now, it’s a German win — and a huge one for the hosts. Franz Wagner scored 32 points, Dennis Schroder added 25 and Germany held off Lithuania 109-107 in a game that was tight throughout, with neither team ever leading by more than nine points.
“We are not happy,” Lithuania coach Kazys Maksvytis said.
According to FIBA, Germany coach Gordie Herbert was called for a technical with 1:26 left in the third quarter, after a personal foul was whistled against his team. Jonas Valanciunas shot two free throws for Lithuania for the personal foul, but no free throw for the technical was awarded.
Herbert said he was told by one of the referees with 7 seconds left in regulation that there was “a situation” regarding the technical and what should have happened.
“That was the first time I heard about it,” Herbert said.
Arnas Butkevicius’ 3-pointer from the left wing for Lithuania — the potential game-winner — bounced off the rim as the clock ran out in the second extra session.
Maodo Lo scored 21 points for Germany (3-0) and Daniel Theis added 11.
Valanciunas had game highs of 34 points and 14 rebounds for Lithuania (0-3), while Marius Grigonis scored 17, Domantas Sabonis finished with 13, Ignas Brazdekis scored 12 and Mindaugas Kuzminskas added 11.
Lithuania’s three losses have been by seven, four and two points.
“It was a tough game,” Valanciunas said. “They played well. I thought we responded for most of the time. … Congrats to them.”
Valanciunas scored the final four points of regulation as Lithuania rallied from down 89-85 in the final 42 seconds. Schroder missed a stepback jumper at the buzzer of the fourth, and Wagner missed one at the end of the first overtime.
But in the second OT, the Germans scored the first five points and never trailed. Valanciunas was subbed out with 2:29 left, Lo made a 3-pointer 17 seconds later for a 106-102 lead and Germany held on.
“To come out on top, after all of that, I think it’s definitely a sign of our character and togetherness as a team,” Lo said.
GROUP B
BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA 97, SLOVENIA 93
Also at Cologne, Bosnia and Herzegovina (2-1) surprised Luka Doncic and defending EuroBasket winner Slovenia (2-1) behind 23 points from John Roberson and 22 from Dzanan Musa.
Miralem Halilovic scored 13, while Jusuf Nurkic and Edin Atic each had 12 for the winners.
Doncic had 18 points, eight rebounds and eight assists for Slovenia but went 0 for 8 from 3-point range. Vlatko Cancar led Slovenia with 22 points, Goran Dragic added 20, Klemen Prepelic scored 12 and Mike Tobey finished with 11.
FRANCE 78, HUNGARY 74
Guerschon Yabusele scored 17 points and France (2-1) wasted most of a 15-point lead before hanging on late to defeat Hungary (1-2).
Adam Hanga’s 3-pointer with 1:04 left got Hungary within 74-72. Hungary got a stop on the next France possession and had a shot at what would have been its first lead, but David Vojvoda’s 3-point try bounced off the rim with 23 seconds remaining.
Rudy Gobert scored 15 points, Evan Fournier added 12 and Vincent Poirier had 10 for France.
Hanga scored 18 for Hungary, and Mikael Hopkins added 10.
GROUP A
BELGIUM 83, SPAIN 73
At Tbilisi, Georgia, Manu Lecomte scored 20 points and Belgium ended the game on a 12-0 run to surprise Spain.
Pierre-Antoine Gillet scored 14 points for Belgium (2-1), which got 11 from Retin Obasohan and 10 from Ismael Bako.
Willy Hernangomez scored 18 for Spain (2-1), while Juancho Hernangomez and Lorenzo Brown each had 11.
MONTENEGRO 91, BULGARIA 81
Vladimir Mihailovic scored 23 points and Montenegro (2-1) ended the game on an 18-6 run to rally past Bulgaria (0-3).
Igor Drobnjak and Bojan Dubljevic each had 17 points for Montenegro, Nemanja Radovic added 16 and Kendrick Perry scored 12.
Aleksandar Vezenkov led all scorers with 26 for Bulgaria, which led 75-73 in the fourth before missing eight of its last 10 shots. Andrey Ivanov finished with 17 and Chavdar Kostov added 10 for Bulgaria, which tried 64 shots in the game — 40 of them from 3-point range.
GEORGIA 88, TURKEY 83, 2OT
The host nation in Group A rallied from an early 10-point deficit and handed Turkey (2-1) its first loss, though there was even more controversy following the game.
Turkey alleged that one of its players — local media said it was Furkan Korkmaz — got into an altercation in the locker room area following the game. It was unclear who else was involved in the incident.
Turkey assistant coach Hakan Demir said his national federation wants to review security footage. Turkey was also upset that 22 seconds ran off the clock during a fourth-quarter on-court altercation between Korkmaz and Georgia’s Duda Sanadze.
“We will watch the cameras,” Demir said. “This kind of thing, unfortunately, is a big disappointment. We are here to play basketball. … On the court, Georgia won the game. We congratulate them. It’s no problem. We lost in two overtimes. Does not matter.”
Korkmaz and Sanadze were both ejected.
Alexander Mamukelashvili had 20 points and 12 rebounds for Georgia (1-2), while Thaddus McFadden scored 17, Rati Andronikashvili and Giorgi Shermadini each scored 15 and Sanadze added 13.
Alperen Sengun led Turkey with 21 points on 10-of-14 shooting. Sertac Sanli scored 15, Cedi Osman added 14 and Melik Mahmutoglu had 11. Shane Larkin finished with nine points, eight rebounds, seven assists and five steals.
Turkey’s loss created a four-way tie with Montenegro, Spain and Belgium joining it atop Group A. The top four teams in each group advance to the knockout stage.
MONDAY’S SCHEDULE
Group C and Group D return to the floor. Group A and Group B get a rest day.
In Group C, at Milan, Ukraine (2-0) will look to remain unbeaten when it faces host Italy (1-1). Also in Milan on Monday: Greece (2-0), which has won its two games by a combined eight points, takes on Great Britain (0-2) and Croatia (1-1) faces Estonia (0-2).
In Group D, at Prague, Serbia (2-0) plays Finland (1-1), Israel (2-0) takes on Poland (1-1) and the Czech Republic (0-2) meets the Netherlands (0-2).
All four groups are in action Tuesday, with 12 games on the schedule. Group play continues through Thursday and the round of 16 starts in Berlin on Saturday.

LAFC ends skid by adding to success against RSL
Ryan Hollingshead and Cristian Arango scored second-half goals and Los Angeles FC halted its season-worst three-game slide with a solid 2-0 victory over visiting Real Salt Lake on Sunday night.
Carlos Vela had an assist and provided a spark after starting the game on the bench for Los Angeles FC (19-7-3, 60 points). Arango has scored five goals in three career matches against Real Salt Lake.
Maxime Crepeau made five saves for his ninth shutout of the season for LAFC, which moved into a tie for the Supporters' Shield (most regular-season points) with the Philadelphia Union.
LAFC beat Real Salt Lake for the sixth straight time and improved to 10-2-0 all-time in the series, including playoff matches.
Salt Lake (11-9-9, 42 points) had a four-match unbeaten streak (2-0-2) halted. The stretch began after RSL lost 4-1 to visiting LAFC on Aug. 6.
Salt Lake is tied with the Portland Timbers for the sixth-most points in the Western Conference.
Zac MacMath made four saves for Salt Lake, which was out-shot 20-8. LAFC put seven shots on target to RSL's five.
LAFC scored in the 49th minute after MacMath came out a few feet to break up a cross. The loose ball went toward Hollingshead, who sent a left-footed blast into the net for his fifth goal of the season.
Vela entered the match in the 58th. Just three minutes later, he sent a rocket left-footer just over the top of the net.
In the 62nd minute, Rubio Rubin had a chance for Salt Lake, but LAFC's Diego Palacios deflected the right-footed shot and it went wide right of the net.
Arango made it 2-0 in the 68th minute with Vela delivering a pass. Arango deked MacMath to the ground and easily sent a right-footer into the net for his 15th goal of the season.
Salt Lake nearly cut its deficit in half in the 73rd minute, but Crepeau stopped Anderson Julio's close-range header.
Vela took a penalty kick in the first minute of second-half stoppage time, but MacMath guessed correctly by moving to his left to stop Vela's left-footed blast.
LAFC had an 8-1 edge in shots in the first half.
LAFC's Jesus Murillo had a solid chance in the 28th minute, but his header was stopped by MacMath.

NANJING, China, Sept. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Simcere Pharmaceutical Group Limited (2096.HK) announced its financial results for the first half of 2022. As of June 30, Simcere recorded operating revenue of RMB 2.7 billion for the first half of the year, with a year-over-year growth of 27.3%. The estimated net profit for the first half of 2022 after deducting non-recurring profits and losses would be RMB 390 million. Innovative drug revenue grew 44.8% year-over-year to RMB 1.767 billion, accounting for a record-high 65.4% of total revenue. Simcere has transformed into an innovative pharmaceutical company that relies on innovation and R&D for performance growth.
According to the report, Simcere Pharmaceutical currently has 6 branded innovative drug products on the market. In the two years since its launch, Sanbexin® (Edaravone and Dexborneol concentrated solution for injection), Simcere's innovative drug for stroke, has benefited 860,000 patients nation-wide, driving a 74.7% year-over-year revenue growth of the CNS portfolio and further improving Simcere's leading market position in this field. Moreover, revenue contribution from products such as Enweida® (Envafolimab injection), the world's first subcutaneous PD-(L) 1 antibody, further validated Simcere's business capabilities.
Under the R&D strategy of "focusing on more effective therapies and emphasizing differentiation", the company is currently fast-tracking nearly 60 innovative drug pipeline projects and conducting 20 registered clinical studies on 16 potential innovative drugs. 7 projects have entered Phase 3 clinical trials, including 2 highlighted candidates, Sanbexin sublingual tablets, and SIM0417, an investigational anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug.
The Sanbexin sublingual tablets (oral formulation of Edaravone and Dexborneol), an innovative drug currently being developed at phase 3 clinical study, offers anti-inflammatory and anti-free radical effects together with blood-brain barrier protection to minimize brain cell damage caused by stroke. The administration of sublingual tablet is not restricted by medical institution capabilities or patient compliance, making it suitable for various conditions of acute or chronic CNS diseases. It is expected to form a sequential regimen with Sanbexin® injection. At present, patient enrollment of 914 subjects have been completed for the product's pivotal Phase 3 trial within just 10 months ahead of schedule. Simcere is going to expedite its NDA in China in the near term. Market analysis revealed that the drug would quickly achieve peak sales after reaching the market owing to Simcere Pharmaceutical's long-standing CNS market share. The scarcity of innovative CNS drugs in China also increases Simcere's investment value.
SIM0417, another important product being developed by Simcere, is an anti-SARS-CoV-2 candidate that targets 3CL, a key protease essential for virus replication, and has shown good antiviral activity against a variety of strains. Preclinical studies have shown that some of the SIM0417 efficacy and safety metrics are better than those of molecules having similar biological targets currently on the market. As of the announcement date, Simcere Pharmaceutical has been conducting two Phase2/3 clinical trials of SIM0417 combined with Ritonavir versus placebo for antiviral treatment in COVID-19 patients, and for post-exposure prophylaxis for close contacts of individuals who test positive for COVID-19 throughout several provinces and cities in accordance with the clinical trial protocol approved by CDE(Center for Drug Evaluation). During the persistent epidemic and recurrent outbreaks, there is a significant unmet need for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 close contacts. As a small molecule drug and oral tablet, SIM0417 has inherent advantages in responding to the pandemic due to its convenience in storage, transportation, and administration.
As a result of Simcere's efforts combining in-house R&D with extensive R&D collaborations, the business development has contributed tremendously to the company's pipeline. On July 12, 2022, Simcere received conditioned approval for its first-in-class innovative drug Cosela® (Trilaciclib hydrochloride for injection), developed through licensing–in collaboration. Cosela® is the world's first myelo-protection drug that prevents damage of bone marrow stem cells from cytotoxic chemotherapy. The successful development of this drug took only 708 days from the date of license-in agreement signing till market approval in China. According to published industrial data, among the top 100 license-in products in China between 2019 and 2021 in terms of transaction amount, only 4 products are approved with new indications on the Chinese market. In this list, Trilaciclib takes the first place for fast development in China, nearly shortens the time frame by a year compared to the product ranked second.
As one of the first pharmaceutical companies in the industry to complete innovation transformation, the advantages of Simcere's differentiated R&D capabilities, manufacturing capacities benchmarked against international metrics, and leading business capabilities, are gradually emerging. The innovative drug R&D pipelines have started to pay off, allowing Simcere to launch more differentiated innovative drugs more efficiently and successfully while expanding its business capabilities.
Since the successful IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 2020, Simcere Pharmaceutical's innovative drug business has become a major driver for the company's continued growth. According to the outlook section in the announcement, Simcere will fast-track its Sanbexin sublingual tablet R&D process to complete its pivotal phase 3 clinical trials, actively explore possible new indications of Cosela, and expedite the R&D of anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug SIM0417.
As the national bulk-buy program bringing heavy impact to the pharmaceutical industry, Chinse companies are turning their focused on differentiated innovation. Simcere chooses a unique approach to innovation based on its continuous R&D investment, diversified and differentiated pipelines, and proven business capabilities. These efforts will provide driven force for future growth and development.

MERLIN, Ore. – Firefighters continue to make progress on The Rum Creek fire in Josephine County, as containment is quickly increasing this weekend.
The fire is now at 18,966 acres and 27% contained. Firefighters say the cooler and more humid weather has played a huge role in their containment progress.
Fire officials say nearly the entire Rum Creek Fire is encircled by well-defined control lines.
The Office of State Fire Marshal is starting to remove task forces from The Rum Creek Fire and move them to The Double Creek Fire up north in Wallowa county.
“We were able to release two task forces from this local area to assist our partners on the Wallowa and our fire managers felt comfortable enough with all the work that we have done, with prepping homes and taking care of all those structures that we could release them,” said Public Information Officer, Don Hickman.
Hickman says fire crews have been working 24/7 on this fire with most of the progress being made at night.
He says overnight the winds go down and the humidity goes up allowing firefighters to do a more direct attack on the flames. | https://kobi5.com/news/containment-grows-on-the-rum-creek-fire-194975/ | 2022-09-05T06:14:13Z | https://kobi5.com/news/containment-grows-on-the-rum-creek-fire-194975/ | true |
Marine veteran among 2 killed in shooting at house party
BOSTON (WCVB) - Authorities are investigating after two men, including a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, were killed in a triple shooting during an overnight house party.
Police say the shooting that killed two men and injured a third happened about 3 a.m. Sunday in Boston’s Dorchester neighborhood. One of the victims was pronounced dead at the scene and another was pronounced dead at the hospital. The third victim was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to police.
Relatives identified one of the men who died as 29-year-old Tefan Ivy, a Marine veteran and father of a young daughter.
Neighborhood resident Luis Perez says a lot of people were partying in the area around the time he heard gunfire.
“About 10 or 20 shots. Bam, bam, bam. When you hear something like that, you go hiding,” he said.
Ryan Diauto, who was staying with a friend who lives next door to where the shooting happened, was hit by a bullet fragment that entered the home. He was not injured.
“It went through the wall, hit something and then hit my ankle,” Diauto said. “I thought it was a wood chip, but when I looked on the ground, a bullet was on the ground.”
Detectives spent Sunday talking to witnesses and gathering evidence. A ShotSpotter system and surveillance camera are within feet of where the shooting happened, and neighbors hope they will help solve this case.
The shooting is being investigated by the Boston Police Department’s Homicide and Crime Scene units, as well as the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office.

NEW YORK (AP) — The steel bands and brightly colored costumes of Caribbean Carnival are returning to the streets of New York City, with the West Indian American Day Parade taking place in person Monday after a pandemic-induced hiatus.
Throngs of people are expected to line the streets of Brooklyn, where one of the world's largest celebrations of Caribbean culture takes place, after two years of virtual events.
Brooklyn is where scores of Caribbean immigrants and their descendants have put down roots and turned the Labor Day celebration into a must-do event, with onlookers and participants carrying flags from a slew of countries.
The main parade starts in the late morning and goes into the evening, with a separate street party known as J’Ouvert, commemorating freedom from slavery, beginning in the early morning at 6 a.m. and going until the larger parade kicks off.
Outbreaks of violence have occasionally marred both the early morning and main parade, with the most high-profile being the 2015 death of an aide to then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo from stray gunfire during the hours of J'Ouvert, which used to start even earlier and was more informal.
Since then, a formal start time for J'Ouvert was instituted, along with checkpoints for entry, as well as an increase in police presence on the day. | https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Colorful-West-Indian-Day-parade-returns-to-NYC-17419742.php | 2022-09-05T06:32:53Z | https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Colorful-West-Indian-Day-parade-returns-to-NYC-17419742.php | false |

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Chloe Akers considers herself a grizzled criminal defense attorney. Until a few months ago, she didn’t spend much time thinking about abortion — for all her 39 years, abortion was not a crime, so she’d never imagined having to defend someone accused of performing one.
That changed in June, when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Akers sat down in her law office and pulled up Tennessee’s new criminal abortion statute.
She didn’t read it through a political lens; it doesn’t matter whether she likes a law. She read it like she would any other statute: What does it make illegal?
She was shocked.
Tennessee’s law makes performing an abortion a felony. There are no exceptions. This is the part that Akers has since found herself having to repeat, eliciting raised eyebrows and deeply drawn breaths: Unlike many states' abortions bans this law does not explicitly exempt abortions performed to save a mother’s life.
Instead, it offers doctors an “affirmative defense.” The difference is linguistically subtle but extraordinarily meaningful in criminal law, Akers says. The law makes performing all abortions illegal. Instead of the state having to prove that the procedure was not medically necessary, the law shifts the burden to the doctor to convince a court that it was.
She opened up Instagram, where she sometimes explains criminal law to a handful of followers. If she would have known that 2 million people would end up watching — including members of Congress and country music stars — she would have brushed her hair and spit out her gum.
She tried to explain an affirmative defense in a way people without a law degree might understand it: it is akin to claiming self-defense after killing someone. A prosecutor might decide the killing was justified and decide not to charge. But that’s entirely up to the prosecutor. If they do charge, the defendant is at the mercy of the courts.
“It’s about to get real and it may not happen to you. But it’s going to happen here,” she said in her video. For those who were scared or confused, she added words of support: “You know exactly where to find me.”
And they did. Her inbox was flooded with thousands of messages, so many she couldn’t keep up.
The mayor wrote. Socialites invited her to present at dinner parties. Doctors pleaded for guidance. A women’s motorcycle group asked her to come talk with them.
She had accidently become the state’s primary interpreter of this law, which went into effect Aug. 25. Within days she quit her cushy job in a law firm and started a nonprofit she named Standing Together Tennessee. For the past two months, she’s crisscrossed the state on a tour aimed at explaining abortion law to doctors, and the intricacies of pregnancies to the lawyers who might have to defend them.
Nikki Zite, a Knoxville OB-GYN, signed up to be the nonprofit’s medical director.
Zite is a complex family planning physician. Since Roe fell, she’s treated two ectopic pregnancies, where the pregnancy is growing outside the womb, usually in the fallopian tubes. An ectopic pregnancy can never be viable and can rupture if allowed to continue to grow. Termination is standard treatment. And yet Zite has found herself looking over her shoulder.
“What if someone disagrees with me? Am I going to go to jail?” she wonders. “We are now at the mercy of the criminal justice system.”
Will Brewer, an attorney and lobbyist with Tennessee Right to Life, thinks the lawyers like Akers and doctors agonizing over the wording are exaggerating the possible consequences.
“I think you’re going to be hard pressed to find a prosecutor that is going to prosecute a physician when they can back up their claim that they did this to save the life of the mother,” Brewer said.
He said lawmakers chose the wording for a specific reason: to raise the bar as high as they could for doctors to perform an abortion. Exemptions are easier to abuse, he said. Yet he believes the law gives them wide berth — it doesn’t require death be imminent and it doesn’t mean every decision will be second-guessed.
Yet Akers fields phone calls multiple times each day from terrified doctors.
Leilah Zahedi, a Chattanooga OB-GYN, called recently to say she’d been on a call with hospital lawyers who reminded her that if she hesitates too long and a pregnant patient suffers, she could be liable for malpractice.
“We’re being told there’s this very fine tightrope where you can follow the law. And if you fall one way, you’re committing a felony and if you fall the other way and you wait too long, then someone can sue you for malpractice. It feels pretty much impossible,” she said. “What am I supposed to do?”
She specializes in the most dangerous pregnancies. Complications uncommon for most obstetricians are not uncommon for her. She wants to stay in Tennessee, but she’s not sure if the new law will make that too risky. This is Akers’ greatest fear: Doctors will move to states where they will not face the threat of jail for doing their jobs.
“The women of Tennessee need you here,” she said.
Her own sister survived a high-risk pregnancy with twin boys — because she had top-notch care, she believes. She thinks all of her neighbors deserve the same. Tennessee already ranks toward the top of the list of states with abysmal maternal mortality rates, and she worries this will make matters worse.
“We all just risked our lives for two years for a pandemic. I’m not really excited about now risking my liberty and freedom in order to take care of patients here when it has become very clear I am no longer welcome,” she said, “even though I know people need me.”
She wants to stay. She loves her practice and her patients, she told Akers.
“But I just don’t know.” | https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Lawyer-s-mission-Translate-Tenn-s-bewildering-17419713.php | 2022-09-05T06:33:17Z | https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Lawyer-s-mission-Translate-Tenn-s-bewildering-17419713.php | false |

Man who stabbed cop in the throat with a makeshift spear claims the officer's sneakers and 'bad vibrations' triggered him
- Rory James Constantino stabbed Senior Constable Jacob Vella in June 2019
- He claimed he didn't think Constable Vella was a police officer at the time
- Constantino said he thought the two police officers 'were going to kill me'
- He pleaded not guilty to wounding Vella with intent to prevent his dad's arrest
A split second decision to grab a makeshift spear and stab a police officer in the neck was born out of the terror of losing one's life, a Sydney jury has heard.
'This guy did not seem to be a police officer ... I thought I was going to die. I literally thought these guys were going to kill me,' said Rory James Constantino in a 2019 police interview.
The 30-year-old is facing trial after stabbing Senior Constable Jacob Vella in the neck just after 6.30am on June 11, 2019 inside his family home in the southwestern Sydney suburb of Sadleir.
Rory James Constantino (pictured outside court last month) is facing trial after stabbing Senior Constable Jacob Vella in the neck just after 6.30am on June 11, 2019 inside his family home in the southwestern Sydney suburb of Sadleir
Constantino said his act towards the officer was born out of the terror of losing his life
Constable Jacob Vella, 24 (pictured),was slashed in the neck at a Sadleir home, near Liverpool on June 11
In an interview with police, played to a jury in the Downing Centre District Court on Monday, Constantino admitted the stabbing but said he thought he was in the middle of a home invasion.
He has pleaded not guilty to wounding Sen Const Vella with the intent of preventing the arrest of his father Ricky Constantino, and has denied a backup charge of wounding a police officer recklessly causing actual bodily harm.
In his interview at Liverpool Police Station on the day of the incident, the Sydney man described the 'confronting and vicious' experience with two men who he, at the time, did not believe were police officers.
He said he got 'bad vibrations' from one of the men who had flashed a 'weird' looking badge at him, and was dressed in plain clothes. If they were cops, he expected to see paddy wagons at the scene, he added.
'He had f***ing sneakers on. I'm thinking this is bad, this is bad, what's he doing here?'
After refusing to allow them into his home, they smashed his front door in, leading Constantino to run to his bedroom for safety, he told police.
First trying to barricade the door to his bedroom, he said he was knocked down to the ground and beaten up.
At that moment, he reached for the first thing on hand - a knife attached with string to a wooden stick.
Constantino said he said he got 'bad vibrations' from one of the men who had flashed a 'weird' looking badge at him, and was dressed in plain clothes. He said he did not realise they were police until after the pair had fled the house and three police vehicles arrived
'They both chased me down as if I was being hunted and killed,' he told police.
'I just literally grabbed the first f***ing thing I could see, man.'
He said he had the weapon because he lived in a bad neighbourhood, had seen random people in his backyard at night and felt he needed something to defend himself and his family.
He felt shocked he had actually stabbed a police officer in what he described as straight instinctive fear.
'It was a strike of defence. And that's what I mean. It stuns me to think I actually did that.'
Constable Vella proposed to his girlfriend in November, 2019
He told police he would like to apologise to the man and his family.
'For what it's worth, I feel so sick and sorry.'
He said he did not realise they were police until after the pair had fled the house and three police vehicles arrived.
With five police officers advancing on him as he left the house, and Tasers pointed in his direction, Constantino said he was crying in shock and raised his hands in submission.
He denied claims by the other plain clothes police officer on the scene, then-Constable Grant Koschel, that he had shown his identification and said there was a warrant out for his father's arrest.
The trial continues.

BEIJING (AP) — Asian stock markets mostly declined Monday after Wall Street ended last week lower and China tightened anti-virus controls.
Tokyo, Hong Kong and South Korea declined. Shanghai gained. Oil prices rose $2 per barrel while the euro edged lower.
Wall Street's benchmark S&P 500 index ended down 1.1% on Friday after U.S. government data showed hiring slowed in August. The number of jobs added still was big enough that forecasters said the Federal Reserve might see it as evidence more interest rate hikes are needed to bring down inflation that is at a four-decade high.
“Markets relinquished early optimism for a sense of foreboding,” said Tan Boon Heng of Mizuho Bank in a report.
The Shanghai Composite Index advanced 0.2% to 3,193.46, after controls on movement were tightened in the southern business center of Shenzhen following virus outbreaks.
The Nikkei 225 in Tokyo lost less than 0.1% to 27,646.27 while the Hang Seng in Hong Kong tumbled 1.3% to 19,203.24.
The Kospi in Seoul lost 0.3% to 2,403.12 while Sydney's S&P-ASX 200 added 0.3% to 6,846.70.
New Zealand and Bangkok declined while Singapore and Indonesia advanced.
Traders are uneasily watching the Fed after chair Jerome Powell said Aug. 26 interest rates have to stay elevated to rein in surging inflation. That dashed hopes the Fed might back off due to signs U.S. economic activity is cooling.
The Fed has raised rates four times this year, twice by 0.75 percentage points, triple its usual margin.
Central banks in Europe and Asia also have hiked rates, fueling worries they might derail global economic growth.
On Wall Street, the Dow Jones Industrial Average also fell 1.1% on Friday after the Labor Department reported the U.S. economy added 315,000 jobs in August. That was down markedly from July's 526,000, but average hourly pay jumped by an unusually wide margin of 5.2% compared with a year earlier.
Forecasters warned high wage gains might reinforce the Fed's belief that more aggressive rate hikes are needed.
The Nasdaq composite lost 1.3%.
The U.S. market has given up much of the gains made in July and August when traders hoped the Fed might ease up.
Traders expect another 0.75 percentage point rate hike at this month's Fed meeting, according to CME Group.
Also Friday, Russian state-run energy giant Gazprom announced a suspension of gas supply through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline to Germany might be prolonged. The company said last Wednesday the flow of gas would be stopped for three days due to urgent maintenance work.
In energy markets, benchmark U.S. crude gained $1.88 to $88.75 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract rose 26 cents to $86.87 on Friday. Brent crude, the price basis for international oil trading, added $2.14 to $95.16 per barrel in London. It advanced 66 cents the previous session to $93.02.
The dollar advanced to 140.33 yen from Friday's 140.13 yen. The euro declined to 99.08 cents from 99.64 cents.

VENICE, Italy (AP) — The Venice Film Festival is buzzing with anticipation for Olivia Wilde’s “Don’t Worry Darling,” which is having its world premiere Monday night on the Lido.
There’s the eagerness for the film itself, a mid-century styled psychological thriller with a starry cast, including Florence Pugh, Harry Styles and Chris Pine. There’s also the arrival of Styles, whose otherworldly fame and following may make the Timothée Chalamet mania seen on Friday seem downright quaint.
But it seems the most breathlessly awaited event is the film’s press conference Monday afternoon. Behind-the-scenes drama rarely extends beyond internal industry gossip, but the question of exactly what happened in the making of “Don’t Worry Darling” has become a source of global intrigue. Rumors about everything from Shia LaBeouf’s departure from the film early on, to Pugh’s perceived lack of public support for the project on her social media accounts have been simmering on TikTok and twitter for some time.
Wilde herself also became a tabloid fixture after paparazzi caught on to her off screen relationship with Styles. And then there was the CinemaCon moment, in which Wilde was served custody papers by her ex, Jason Sudeikis, during a presentation about her movie on stage in front of thousands of industry professionals and theater owners.
Then in the past few weeks, all the little threads seemed to catch fire at once. Much of that was stoked by LaBeouf, who came out of the woodwork to contest a two-year-old narrative that he’d been fired from the project. Ultimately, his role went to Styles.
Wilde, in a Variety cover story, is not directly quoted saying she fired him. She did offer: “His process was not conducive to the ethos that I demand in my productions. He has a process that, in some ways, seems to require a combative energy, and I don’t personally believe that is conducive to the best performances.”
In response, LaBeouf sent private emails, texts and video messages to Variety to prove his case that he actually quit due to lack of rehearsal time. The video message, in which she tries to convince LaBeouf to stay on as Jack, was subsequently leaked online.
LaBeouf, who is heading to court next year on abuse allegations from his ex, FKA twigs, happens to also be in Venice this year with the film “Padre Pio."
The leaked video also showed Wilde calling Pugh “Miss Flo,” which some perceived as confirmation that the two did not get along. Wilde, for her part, has been nothing but effusive about her lead actor. In an interview with The Associated Press she spoke at length an about Pugh’s extraordinary talent saying that what she did with the role was “singularly brilliant” and that the character of Alice is a “heroine for the ages.”
Still, questions have arisen about why Pugh has not been posting much about the film on her Instagram. She didn’t hype the trailer, or say anything about getting into Venice. Only adding fuel to the fire, The Wrap then reported that Pugh would be limiting her press appearances around the film to Venice only. And on Sunday night, Variety broke the news that Pugh would not be participating in the press conference either because of her tight travel schedule and turnaround.
Pugh is in the middle of production on “Dune 2,” a massive blockbuster (also a Warner Bros. joint) and is expected to go straight back after her Venice obligations. Chalamet, her “Dune 2” co-star, had a similarly brief stay in Venice for his film “Bones and All.” It’s likely to be the only appearance he’ll make on behalf of that film, but no one wrote any headlines about Chalamet “limiting” his press engagements.
The hope is that the press conference will answer or clarify lingering questions, turn attention back to the film itself and maybe even drum up more excitement for its theatrical release on Sept. 23.
“This film is my love letter to the movies that push the boundaries of our imagination. It’s ambitious, but I think we made something really special,” Wilde wrote in her director's statement. “Imagine a life where you had everything you ever wanted, What would it take for you to give that up...Are you willing to dismantle the system that is designed to serve you?
Regardless, one thing is certain: Everyone is talking about “Don't Worry Darling.”

A bit of a play in PS to achieve this. I thought it gave a good feel for the profusion of flowers amongst the trees.

ADF troops may face death penalty in Japan
Australian defence force personnel could face the death penalty in Japan under a treaty between the two nations, a federal parliamentary committee has heard.
The Australia-Japan Reciprocal Access Agreement seeks to improve the ability of the countries' militaries to work together and with other key allies, including the US.
It also sets out a framework for troop activities in each country.
Under questioning, the Defence Department's Hugh Jeffrey told the joint standing committee on treaties that Australians who committed serious offences while in Japan could be sentenced to death under its judicial system, which includes capital punishment.
"The possibility that we think that Australian Defence Force personnel would be involved in such criminal activity we think is, is vanishingly small," he said.
"But were a person to commit such a terrible crime, while they are not on official duties, that the possibility is encompassed they could be subject to the death penalty."
He said negotiations were "challenging" and "complex" and were the first time Japan had ever held discussions for a military access agreement with another country since the end of the Second World War.
But finalising negotiations for the pact has taken seven and a half years, after the work was begun in 2014 by former prime minister Tony Abbott and his then-Japanese counterpart Shinzo Abe.
Japan's use of the death penalty has been a major stumbling block, amid fears Australians could be executed for criminal offences committed in Japan.
Mr Jeffrey said it wasn't "exceptional" that an Australian could be subject to the death penalty, because the nation had reciprocal agreements with other countries that also carried out capital punishment.
These countries included Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore.
The committee was told Australia had managed to secure exemptions from the application of the death penalty for its troops in some of those countries, including Papua New Guinea and the Philippines.
Labor senator Deborah O'Neill said she wasn't "convinced that our personnel are safe".
The next hearing into the agreement between Australia and Japan will be held in October. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/aap/article-11180633/ADF-troops-face-death-penalty-Japan.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-09-05T07:29:23Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/aap/article-11180633/ADF-troops-face-death-penalty-Japan.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true |
Swiss economy grows 0.3% in Q2 as services shine
ZURICH, Sept 5 (Reuters) - The Swiss economy grew a real 0.3% in the second quarter versus the first three months thanks to the services sector's continued recovery from pandemic restrictions and robust consumer spending, data showed on Monday.
That compared to growth of a revised 0.5% in the first quarter, or 0.2% when stripping out the impact of large sporting events, the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs said.
Gross domestic product expanded 2.8% year on year, or 2.3% adjusted for sporting events.
Economists polled by Reuters had expected GDP to rise 0.4% quarter on quarter and 3.0% year on year.
The Swiss economy has weathered recent turbulence on world markets relatively well.
The government sees no immediate need for measures to help cushion the burden of surging energy prices, it said last week, noting the economy was performing well, unemployment was low, and inflation was set to wane next year.
Swiss consumer price inflation rose a higher-than-expected 3.5% in August, the seventh month in a row that inflation has surpassed the Swiss National Bank's 0-2% target range.

Actor Brendan Fraser received a six-minute standing ovation Sunday night at the Venice Film Festival, after making a comeback to the profession following personal struggles.
Fraser was attending the world premiere of The Whale, a movie in which he plays the lead character Charlie, an English teacher reconnecting with his teenage daughter.
Fraser was preparing to exit the stage when audience members and people onstage alongside him began a round of applause. He appeared to be in tears at the response.
The standing ovation for #TheWhale was so enthusiastic, Brendan Fraser tried to leave the theater but the crowd’s applause made him stay. #Venezia79 pic.twitter.com/ZZ0vbFX7Rl
— Ramin Setoodeh (@RaminSetoodeh) September 4, 2022
Fraser had breakout roles in George of the Jungle (1997) and The Mummy (1999). He continued to star in sequels The Mummy Returns (2001) and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008).
The Mummy movies took a great physical toll on him, and he received multiple surgeries as a result of stunt work he did for the franchise. He underwent a laminectomy (a procedure to remove vertebrae from the spine), a partial knee replacement and vocal cord repair, he told GQ in 2018.
Fraser also said he wondered if he had been blacklisted by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the organization that hosts the Golden Globes, after he alleged that a former HFPA had groped him in 2003.
As video of the standing ovation circulated, Fraser received an outpouring of support online.
"Man this makes me so happy to see this beautiful ovation for Brendan," Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson tweeted. "He supported me coming into his Mummy Returns franchise for my first ever role, which kicked off my Hollywood career."

"I wish him to be *showered* with praise, and I've a feeling he won't take it for granted for an instant," another tweeter said. "Welcome back Brendan Fraser. We've missed you."
"He deserves all the love in the world. Dude had a super unfair shake in Hollywood, but now it's (hopefully) coming around and he's going to get his due," one user said.
Fraser has several upcoming roles, including a role alongside Glenn Close and Peter Dinklage in Brothers; in the Martin Scorsese-directed Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) alongside Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio; and Behind the Curtain of Night, according to IMDB.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Channing Riley fled the abuse when she had the chance. She took her daughters, 5 and 7, but not the car that wasn’t in her name. From a women’s shelter in St. Petersburg, they walked.
They learned to avoid routes with stray dogs after Riley was bitten. They saw how missing one bus could derail an entire day. The younger girl once fainted in the heat hurrying to school so Riley could get back in time to catch a bus to work in Seminole.
“They had no idea what it was like to walk around a city,” Riley said, “and neither did I.”
When 15 miles proved too far, Riley had to quit her job at an animal shelter.
This was life without a car in Tampa Bay’s sprawl. School drop-offs, grocery restocks and doctor’s appointments strung together with bus routes and shabby sidewalks.
Lately, finding a decent car has proved painful for families like the Rileys. More locals are dragging beat-up cars to the mechanic, while those determined to buy compete at higher price points. Dealers are bidding more just to stock their lots.
Since the return to life after pandemic lockdown, demand has climbed as options have slimmed. New cars are delayed by microchip shortages, meaning fewer trade-ins, meaning fewer used cars. Shop for a new car now, and you might face long waiting lists. Want a used car, then? Prices are up 53% and don’t try to negotiate.
And for the budget shopper hoping to pay $5,000 in cash for something used, nothing fancy, just a reasonably reliable ride to work — it seems those deals may no longer exist.
A social worker referred Riley to a charity called Wheels of Success, which provides a rarity in 2022: inexpensive, refurbished cars. For a 2002 Lexus SUV, Riley paid $100 a month for 14 months.
With the hatchback, she could load up clients’ pets for a new dog-training business.
“That car became everything,” she said.
Today, that business has grown, the girls are in private school and Riley has a new car. That Lexus, which helped rebuild their lives, she donated. After all, car charities can’t meet the demand.
When her son crashed the family Mazda, Bilquis Quasem’s long search began.
“We went to go see a car at a car lot that we saw online. The car wouldn’t even turn on,” said Quasem, who runs the Maher Food Market in St. Petersburg with her husband.
At another test drive, she said, “The car was shaking at 35, 40 miles per hour.”
A year of dead ends and clunkers later, the family grudgingly settled on a 2004 Accord with 110,000 miles. After tax and tag and fees it was a little under $7,000.
“It’s like 200,000 miles is the new 100,000 miles,” said Reid Kogelman, who with his father runs Pats Automotive repair shop and Parkside Auto Sales in Pinellas Park.
Dealers used to bat away cars with more than 100,000 miles, he said. “Now you buy high mileage cars and people don’t care, they’ll still buy them.”
John Ebner repairs cars down the road at Suncoast Auto & Tire. The shop does work for a big dealership that trades in new and used cars. The recent scarcity of used cars has changed dealers’ game, he said.
Before, large dealerships would send older, less desirable traded-in cars straight to the auction block. Now, he said, “they’re sending them to me to fix them up so they can sell them.”
Dealers have had to get creative. Several Tampa Bay residents told the Times that dealerships had offered to buy back vehicles they’d bought only a year earlier, sometimes for more than they’d paid. The old rule that a car’s value drops 20 percent as you drive it off the lot has not applied.
Dealer auctions, where the smallest dealers source cars that eventually sell to the most cash-strapped buyers, are more competitive now, said Mike Luce, a manager at Your Auction. Dealers pay more for older cars, and fewer cars in all come through the St. Petersburg auction house. Bidding gets weird, Luce said, with feuding dealers trying secret signals.
“They’ll hide behind poles and kind of pop out and try to bid without anyone seeing them,” he said. “Then if the auctioneer doesn’t see them they’ll complain.”
For these reasons, the auction is recorded on high-definition cameras. An armed sheriff’s deputy stands guard as the auction brings in tens of thousands in cash in a day.
On a recent Wednesday afternoon, the cacophony overwhelmed a first-time visitor. Around 100 dealers shuffled through four lanes of vehicles driving through an open-air pavilion. Industrial fans whirred hot air as four auctioneers jabbered at once.
The men — they were all men — pushed fenders, peered under wheel wells and held their hands in front of air vents. Each car took about 60 seconds to sell. The least-expensive cars often brought the most bids, such as a 2005 Cobalt with 106,000 miles that sold for $1,900. Same for a 2012 Civic with 144,000 miles that sold for $6,300 — prices that two years ago were what a buyer might expect to pay on the retail market.
Other cars sold at auction that day included:
A 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan with 112,000 miles that someone traded in at Volkswagen of Tampa. It sold to a dealer for $4,200 and landed on Facebook Marketplace for $6,999.
A silver 2000 Volvo S70 with 110,000 miles sold for $1,400 and went on a local lot for $3,588.
A silver 2008 Nissan Rogue with 158,000 miles sold for $3,800 went on a lot for $5,588.
“Low-income houses just do better with a car,” said Evelyn Blumenberg, an urban planning professor at the University of California, Los Angeles. “It’s higher rates of employment, better neighborhoods.”
She pointed to research linking cars to stability — even in regions with more robust public transit than in the Tampa Bay area — and showing that losing a car can spell disaster.
Local mechanics say customers are repairing cars they would have dumped in years past — even though repair prices also are up. The average age of vehicles on U.S. roads this year rose to 12.2 years, the oldest ever, according to auto registration data.
“People are dragging cars in here that have been in their yard for two years covered in leaves,” said Martin Wood, a mechanic at Brewer’s Garage in St. Petersburg.
Blumenberg is studying the effects of pandemic car prices on loans. Preliminary data show more auto loans, with higher dollar amounts, in lower-income neighborhoods, historically home to cash buyers.
Repossessions already appear to be rising, Barron’s reported in July, even among borrowers with great credit. When the market corrects, some who bought during the peak will almost certainly be upside down on car loans. Bankrate.com reports that monthly payments on used cars now average over $500.
Case managers with nonprofits serving impoverished clients in Pinellas, Hillsborough and Pasco counties said they’re seeing more people struggling to hold onto vehicles.
Wheels of Success’ car donations plummeted so much that founder Susan Jacobs was briefly unsure how the charity could carry on. At the same time, calls from people in need have skyrocketed. Jacobs places about one client in a car each week, “but we could do three a day if we had the cars.”
Her clients must have a job to qualify and are required to take classes on car maintenance. They also have to pay something, even $50 a paycheck, because, Jacobs said, “People just take better care of something when they pay money for it.”
But with so few cars, Wheels has tried something new: helping clients repair the ones they already have.
“For so many of the people we hear from now, their car is their job,” she said. “We try to keep them on the road, because if they stop, then they become homeless.”
Last week, Nathan Henley and Marnie Hammon, who receive assistance through the nonprofit One Community Now, walked their kids to the first day of middle school in Port Richey. Their broken Chevy Trailblazer stayed in the driveway. The family’s main transportation for a year has been one of the boys’ Razor scooters.
Hammon scoots to the store and carries home groceries. She brings it on the bus to work, and if she wraps up late, she scoots the full seven miles home. Repairs on the Trailblazer are too much, and they can’t even consider buying in this market. If it’s raining, the kids stay home.
A significant chunk of the couple’s income goes to paying the auto insurance anyway, so Hammon’s license doesn’t get suspended. Just in case.
In Clearwater, Bruce Howard recently moved into an apartment complex for homeless veterans through the Homeless Empowerment Program. With a roof over his head, he took a leap and spent his entire savings on a 2010 Nissan Maxima for $5,000, his first vehicle in years.
It was a milestone for the 61-year-old former Marine piecing his life back together after addiction. He could make appointments at the VA hospital and visit his brother at a nursing home. “I want to be there for him,” Howard said. “I’ve been feeling bad about it.”
After a few weeks, the Nissan broke down. He bought a new battery, but now it needs a starter and other work he can’t afford. He had a job lined up cleaning banks at night, but the car trouble ended that.
“I’m back on the bus,” he said. “Getting caught in the rain, that’s just something that happens every day.”
The car remained parked in front of his apartment. On the doorstep a pair of sneakers sat drying out. | https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Affordable-used-cars-hard-to-find-in-Tampa-Bay-17419805.php | 2022-09-05T08:06:47Z | https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Affordable-used-cars-hard-to-find-in-Tampa-Bay-17419805.php | false |

Actor Brendan Fraser received a six-minute standing ovation Sunday night at the Venice Film Festival, after making a comeback to the profession following personal struggles.
Fraser was attending the world premiere of The Whale, a movie in which he plays the lead character Charlie, an English teacher reconnecting with his teenage daughter.
Fraser was preparing to exit the stage when audience members and people onstage alongside him began a round of applause. He appeared to be in tears at the response.

Fraser had breakout roles in George of the Jungle (1997) and The Mummy (1999). He continued to star in sequels The Mummy Returns (2001) and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008).
The Mummy movies took a great physical toll on him, and he received multiple surgeries as a result of stunt work he did for the franchise. He underwent a laminectomy (a procedure to remove vertebrae from the spine), a partial knee replacement and vocal cord repair, he told GQ in 2018.
Fraser also said he wondered if he had been blacklisted by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the organization that hosts the Golden Globes, after he alleged that a former HFPA had groped him in 2003.
As video of the standing ovation circulated, Fraser received an outpouring of support online.
"Man this makes me so happy to see this beautiful ovation for Brendan," Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson tweeted. "He supported me coming into his Mummy Returns franchise for my first ever role, which kicked off my Hollywood career."

"I wish him to be *showered* with praise, and I've a feeling he won't take it for granted for an instant," another tweeter said. "Welcome back Brendan Fraser. We've missed you."
"He deserves all the love in the world. Dude had a super unfair shake in Hollywood, but now it's (hopefully) coming around and he's going to get his due," one user said.
Fraser has several upcoming roles, including a role alongside Glenn Close and Peter Dinklage in Brothers; in the Martin Scorsese-directed Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) alongside Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio; and Behind the Curtain of Night, according to IMDB.

With a strong healthcare and wellness infrastructure and reputation for highly-skilled professionals, Thailand is more than ever ready to realize its goal to become "The Worlds's Medical and Wellness Hub". The country has pushed towards providing a comprehensive and holistic healthcare services to serve the rising consumer demand for the overall treatment of body and mind.
In 2021, Thailand has been ranked 5th place in the world, and 1st place in Asia, in the Global Health Security Index by John Hopkins University for its pandemic response capacity. The Health Care Index 2021 by CEO World magazine has ranked Thailand in the 13th place based on overall health factors.
Affordable costs, high quality medical professionals, world-class healthcare facilities and superb wellness services have propelled demand for Thailand's medical and wellness services from abroad. Before the coronavirus pandemic, the value of medical tourism in Thailand amounted to around nine billion U.S. dollars in 2019, and was forecast to reach approximately 24.4 billion U.S. dollars in 2027, according to Statista. Among the most sought-after medical services are general medical care and surgeries, sophisticated orthopedics, in vitro fertilization, dental care and physical check-up.
"The growing in strength of healthcare sector in Thailand has been supported by highly qualified and attentive medical personnels and world-class standard facilities.

LONDON (AP) — Britain finally learns who its next prime minister will be on Monday after two months of political uncertainty during which energy prices skyrocketed and tens of thousands of workers went on strike.
The governing Conservative Party plans to announce whether Foreign Secretary Liz Truss or former Treasury chief Rishi Sunak won the most votes from party members to succeed Boris Johnson as party leader and thus prime minister.
Whoever emerges victorious will inherit an economy heading into a potentially lengthy recession and will need to jump straight into tackling the cost-of-living crisis walloping the U.K.
Thanks to global gas price volatility triggered by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the average U.K. household energy bill is jumping to more than 3,500 pounds ($4,000) a year — almost triple the level a year ago. Inflation is above 10% for the first time since the 1980s. The government is facing increasingly urgent calls to deliver financial support to help millions pay for essential heating and electricity to get through the winter.
The opposition Labour Party and other critics accuse the government of being “missing in action” during a summer of discontent that saw tens of thousands of rail staff, port and postal workers, lawyers and garbage collectors go on strike to demand better pay to keep up with spiralling costs.
Truss, widely regarded as the front-runner in the leadership race, has won the support of many Conservatives with her Thatcherite zeal to roll back state intervention and slash taxes. She has promised to act “immediately” to tackle soaring energy bills, but declined to give any details.
Sunak, who sought to paint himself as the more realistic economist, said he would temporarily cut the value-added tax on energy bills. But he insisted that he wouldn’t “max out the country’s credit card” and said significant tax cuts should wait until inflation is under control.
Both finalists have declared their admiration for Margaret Thatcher, who was prime minister from 1979 to 1990, and her ring-wing, small-government economics.
“It’s all been very nonspecific and we’re really waiting for the next prime minister to hopefully hit the ground running and tell us what they’re going to do about what is in effect an emergency situation,” said Tim Bale, a politics professor at Queen Mary University of London.
Steven Fielding, a professor of political history at Nottingham University, says Truss’s politics has played well with the estimated 180,000 Conservative Party members who have a say in choosing the country’s leader. But many have low expectations that she will deliver much financial relief to the country’s poorest.
“This is someone who believes in the market in a radical way, someone who believes that the objective of government is to get towards a much smaller state sooner rather than later. She takes that very seriously,” he said.
“So I think we’re going to have a very radical, right-wing, free market prime minister and one that actually is more of an ideologist than a pragmatist.”
While the economy is certain to dominate the first months of the new premier’s term, Johnson’s successor will also have to steer the U.K. on the international stage in the face of Russia’s war in Ukraine, an increasingly assertive China and ongoing tensions with the European Union over the aftermath of Brexit – especially in Northern Ireland.
Truss has talked tough as foreign secretary on all three main issues, though some analysts believe she may tone down her “robust” rhetoric if she becomes leader.
“I think on each of those issue the most domestically popular thing was to be quite tough — now that might change in future,” said David Lawrence, a research fellow at London’s Chatham House think tank.
One key aspect of foreign policy to look out for is whether Truss, if she wins, would put an influential group of Conservative “China hawks” in government, Lawrence added.
“If she does, then I think we will see a much more hawkish nudge in that direction when it comes to the U.K.-China policy,” he said.
Britain has been adrift since July 7, when Johnson announced he was quitting after his government was engulfed by one ethics scandal too many. Both Truss and Sunak were key players within Johnson’s Cabinet, though Sunak resigned in protest in the last days of Johnson’s time in office.
A Truss government may not sit well with many, because it reminds voters too much of Johnson’s misdeeds, Fielding said.
“She’s basically been elected as Boris Johnson 2.0 by Conservative members — she’s made it very clear that she is a loyal Boris Johnson supporter,” Fielding said. “I think she’s going to find it very difficult to disentangle herself from the whole Johnson shadow.”
Johnson has stayed on as prime minister in the interim, but he has been widely criticized for failing to respond to the worsening energy cost crisis. Officials have stressed that any new policies will need to wait until his successor is in place.
Voting in the leadership contest closed on Friday and the winner will be announced later Monday. Johnson and his successor will then travel to Scotland to meet with Queen Elizabeth II on Tuesday — one to formally tender his resignation, and the other to be invited to form a government.
The queen’s meetings with prime ministers traditionally take place in London’s Buckingham Palace. But the 96-year-old monarch has suffered from mobility problems in recent months, and so the arrangements are being moved for the first time to the Scottish Highlands, where she traditionally spends her summers. | https://www.seattletimes.com/business/britain-to-learn-who-will-succeed-johnson-as-prime-minister/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_nation-world | 2022-09-05T08:16:10Z | https://www.seattletimes.com/business/britain-to-learn-who-will-succeed-johnson-as-prime-minister/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_nation-world | true |
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – New York Yankees outfielder Andrew Benintendi has a broken bone in his right wrist that will need surgery, but said he didn't know whether it was a season-ending injury.
“It's all too early to say right now, obviously,” Benintendi said. “We’re still trying to learn some more things. That’s what it is right now. Just take it day by day at this point right now, I guess.”
Manager Aaron Boone revealed the diagnosis of a broken hook hamate bone and the need for surgery after the AL East leaders beat Tampa Bay 2-1 on Sunday. Benintendi will be further examined by doctors Monday back in New York.
Benintendi said he had a previous surgery that removed hook during his freshman year of college and was surprised by Sunday's developments.
“I don't really know about bones or anything like that,” Benintendi said. “So, I'm just listening to what they're telling me. Yeah, I didn't know you could grow another bone or whatever it may be.”
Benintendi was hurt while taking a swing Friday night and was put on the 10-day injured list the next day.
The 28-year-old Benintendi was an All-Star this season with Kansas City, then was traded to the Yankees in late July. He got off to a slow start with New York, but recently had been more productive at the plate.
Benintendi is hitting .304 overall with 51 RBIs. He is batting .254 with 12 RBIs in 33 games for the Yankees.

The upcoming film will be directed by Milind Dhaimade of ‘Tu Hai Mera Sunday’ fame
Lionsgate India Studios on Monday announced its foray into feature film production with an untitled Hindi movie, starring Neetu Kapoor, Sunny Kaushal and Shraddha Srinath.
Described as a coming-of-age story, the upcoming film will be directed by Milind Dhaimade of Tu Hai Mera Sunday fame.
At the core of the family drama, which uses comedy as the main premise, is the relationship between a mother and her son, said the press release.

"With Milind at the helm of it, each character has been cast perfectly to depict this beautiful story that we’re sure audiences will love. We are running at a rapid pace with 8-10 grand projects in the pipeline, within a year - expect big announcements coming your way soon from the Lionsgate India Studios' desk."
Director Milind said in a statement that he is excited about collaborating with Lionsgate for the project. “For me, it’s very critical who is partnering with you in creating the film, since a film is made even before it goes on the floor. All the ingredients that are necessary to put the film together have already been decided. I feel in this aspect Lionsgate India Studios’ vision for the film, along with a stellar cast will be wonderfully refreshing. This is a mother-son relationship that will resonate with everyone irrespective of region, and our casting will help audiences across India connect to a relatable story."
Neetu said that she fell in love with the film’s script the moment she read it. “It goes beyond the regular mother-son story and explores a different side that sets a unique tone to the rom-com genre. I am excited to be part of Lionsgate Studios’ first production, in a movie, I believe will touch hearts and remain close to my heart.”
Sunny described the film as "an ode to all the mothers, their wishes and sacrifices".
"I am really looking forward to working with Milind sir, Lionsgate India Studios and Neetu ji on this special project," the Shiddat actor said.
Shraddha, best known for films such as U Turn (Kannada), Vikram Vedha (Tamil), and Jersey (Telugu), said that she is happy to be part of this project.
“This is a sweet, warm, delightful script. I remember smiling from ear to ear while reading it. We are all so busy watching and making dark, thrilling, and mind-bending content; there aren’t enough films that focus on moments and relationships and the simplicity of life.”
"I'd watched Milind sir's previous work way before I met him and truly enjoyed watching ' Tu Hai Mera Sunday'. I'm glad Lionsgate India Studios sees the film for the gem that it is. I can't wait to breathe life into the character and create magic on screen," she added.
Since last year, through STARZ streaming service, Lionsgate Play has produced Indian shows such as Hiccups & Hookups, Jugaadistan, and Feels Like Home.

BERLIN (AP) — The German and Israeli presidents are to join relatives of the 11 Israeli athletes killed in the attack by Palestinian militants on the 1972 Munich Olympics to mark the 50th anniversary on Monday, days after an agreement that ended a long dispute over compensation.
Monday's ceremony takes place at the Fuerstenfeldbruck airfield outside Munich, the scene of a botched rescue attempt in which nine of the Israeli athletes, a West German police officer and five of the assailants were killed.
Last week's agreement headed off a threatened boycott of the anniversary event by relatives of the slain athletes. They will receive a total of 28 million euros (dollars) in compensation, a significant increase from the initial 10 million-euro offer.

As part of the agreement, Germany has agreed to acknowledge failures by authorities at the time and to allow German and Israeli historians to review the events surrounding the attack. Relatives have accused Germany of failing to secure the Olympic Village, refusing Israeli help and then botching the rescue operation.
The day-long drama started unfolding before dawn on Sept. 5, 1972, when eight members of a Palestinian group called Black September clambered over the unguarded fence of the Olympic village. They burst into the building where the Israeli team was staying, killing wrestling coach Moshe Weinberg and weightlifter Yossi Romano.
Some Israeli athletes managed to escape but nine were seized. The captors demanded the release of more than 200 Palestinians held by Israel and two German left-wing extremists in West German prisons.
The attackers demanded a plane and safe passage to Cairo. After a day of tense negotiations, the assailants and their hostages were allowed to leave aboard two helicopters for Fuerstenfeldbruck.
Sharpshooters at the airfield opened fire. The attackers threw a grenade into one of the helicopters carrying hostages, which exploded, and shot the hostages in the other helicopter.

The compensation settlement includes payments already made. Immediately after the attack, Germany made payments to relatives of the victims amounting to about 4.19 million marks (about 2 million euros or dollars), according to the country’s interior ministry. In 2002, the surviving relatives received an additional 3 million euros, Germany’s dpa news agency reported. | https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/09/05/world/germany-israel-mark-50th-anniversary-1972-olympic-attack/ | 2022-09-05T08:44:23Z | https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/09/05/world/germany-israel-mark-50th-anniversary-1972-olympic-attack/ | false |

ISLAMABAD (AP) — The U.N. refugee agency rushed in more desperately needed aid Monday to flood-stricken Pakistan as the nation's prime minister traveled to the south where rising waters of Lake Manchar pose a new threat.
Two UNHCR planes touched down in the southern port city of Karachi and two more were expected later in the day. A third plane, with aid from Turkmenistan also landed in Karachi. While the floods in recent weeks have touched much of Pakistan, the southern Sindh province, where Karachi is the capital, has been the most affected.
More than 1,300 people have been killed and millions have lost their homes in flooding caused by unusually heavy monsoon rains in Pakistan this year that many experts have blamed on climate change. In response to the unfolding disaster, U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres last week called on the world to stop “sleepwalking” through the crisis. He plans to visit flood-hit areas on Sept. 9.
On Sunday, engineers cut into an embankment in the sides of Lake Manchar in an effort to release rising floodwater to save the city of Sehwan and several nearby villages from possible destruction by flooding waters, which have damaged 1,6 million houses since mid-June.
Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif was met by Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto in the city of Sukkur on the swelling Indus River, from where they toured the flood-hit areas by helicopter. licopter. Murad Ali Shah, the province's chief minister, briefed Sharif about the damages caused by floods in Sindh.
Floods have affected more than 3.3 million in this Islamic nation of 220 million and the devastation has caused $10 billion in damage, according to government estimates. The provinces of Punjab, Sindh, Baluchistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have been the most affected and the majority of people killed were women and children.
Afghan refugees living in Pakistan have also been affected. Pakistan has hosted millions of Afghans fleeing the violence in their country over the past four decades and currently has about 1.3 million registered Afghan refugees.
More than 420,000 Afghan refugees are estimated to be in the worst-affected areas in Pakistan, living side by side with their host communities
Also Sunday, UNICEF delivered relief supplies, including medicines and water-purifying tablets, as part of the U.N. flash appeal for $160 million to support Pakistan's flood response. UNICEF is also appealing for $37 million for children and families.
“The floods have left children and families out in the open with no access to the basic necessities of life,” said Abdullah Fadil, UNICEF's representative in Pakistan.
Planes carrying aid from other countries are also expected later Monday in response to an appeal from Sharif, who has appealed to the international community to help Pakistan.
With the two UNHCR planes, 38 planes have brought in aid from countries including China, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Uzbekistan.

Is this a case of a dishonest hawker or just a misunderstanding?
In a Facebook post shared on Sept 2, Diana Soh said that her 76-year-old mother paid for a $5 meal with a $10 note at a 'cai fan' stall at Bedok Interchange Hawker Centre on Aug 25 at 1.30pm.
But the stall tried to bully the "helpless" elderly woman by refusing to return the change, Soh complained.
She described in her post that the hawker yelled at her mother and even asked her to swear that she had given her a $10 note.
"If my mom swear then they will return my mom the change," Soh added.
"They just kept insisting that my mom gave them a five dollar note. My mother is not colour blind, and she can definitely differentiate a red ten dollar note from a green five dollar note!"
In the comments, several netizens commented that the hawker's behaviour was indeed uncalled for.
"Why need to curse someone over $5? We will not know [the whole story] unless there is CCTV," a netizen said, while others shared their experiences with rude hawkers.
A netizen also felt that the hawker stall deserved to share their side of the story before being subjected to unfair criticism online.
'I did not mean to curse her'
The hawker assistant, who was involved in the heated dispute, however refuted accusations that she had refused to return the change to the elderly diner.
In an interview with Shin Min Daily News on Sept 2, the 45-year-old, surnamed Zhang, shared that the diner had given her $5 for a plate of one meat and fish.
But the elderly woman kept insisting that she had given a $10 note, Zhang claimed.
"I even told her that she had given me the exact amount. But after arguing back and forth for five minutes, I started to get angry," the frustrated hawker assistant added.
In a desperate attempt to prove her innocence, Zhang admitted to raising her voice at the elderly woman.
She said: "I told her, 'If I had taken $10 from you, I'll be ploughed to death by a car'.
"I didn't mean to curse the woman. [But] I might have spoken too fast since I was angry and anxious back then."
Speaking to the Chinese daily, the stall owner, surnamed Cai, shared that he often reminds his employees to return the customers' change before putting the money into the drawer.
"My employee did not make a mistake since the money that she had received from the elderly woman was always in her hand," he said, while clarifying that his employee did not mean to scold the diner.
In past disputes at hawker centres, a 51-year-old hawker was seen hitting a 17-year-old customer with a ladle in April after the latter had allegedly flipped a food tray at him.
The teenager was subsequently taken to hospital after the fight along Sengkang West Avenue.
And in May, a woman was taken to hospital after squabbling with a drinks stall owner in Chinatown.
The cause of the dispute was over a $2 change that was returned to the customer in coins, Shin Min Daily News reported.

Tom Cruise feels the rush of his daredevil ways as he performs a DANGEROUS stunt on the wing of a Biplane for upcoming Mission: Impossible film
He's renowned for performing his own stunts in his Hollywood blockbusters.
And Tom Cruise once again showed off his daredevil behaviour as he could be seen standing on top of a small World War II biplane while it was mid air flying over the Blyde River Canyon in South Africa.
The actor, 60, performed the dangerous stunt in a short social media clip as he filmed scenes for his upcoming Mission Impossible movie.
Action man: Tom Cruise once again showed off his daredevil behaviour as he could be seen standing on top of a small World War II biplane while it was mid air flying over the Blyde River Canyon in South Africa
The action man has been taking flying lessons at the airfield in preparation for exhilarating scenes for the next instalment of the Mission Impossible franchise, which is set for release on July 7, 2023.
The video shows the brightly-coloured planes soaring across the sky before coming down to land at the airfield.
The adrenaline junkie donned a brown jacket and matching trousers, while not wearing a helmet during the death-defying stunt.
Dangerous: The actor, 60, performed the dangerous stunt in a short social media clip as he filmed scenes for his upcoming Mission Impossible movie
Tom could be heard saying: 'Hi everyone, wish I could be there with you, I'm sorry for all of the extra noise. As you can see I'm filming the latest installment of Mission: Impossible.
'Right now we're over gorgeous Blyde River Canyon in stunning South Africa and we're making this film for the big screen for audiences to see in local theatres.'
It comes after Tom, who plays Ethan Hunt in the franchise, reportedly apologised for ruining a couple's hike while filming the scene.
Jason and Sarah Haygarth were going for a walk nearby when they spotted the production crew's helicopter.
Scenic: The video shows the brightly-coloured planes soaring across the sky before coming down to land at the airfield
'Toward the end of the walk, last peak, we start seeing helicopters coming up a ravine and dropping people off the top… We were like, this didn't seem right,' Jason told Extra.
'We found out the people, they were the cameramen. When we came to the peak, we got stopped by what must have been a production team member, saying, "You can't go. We're going to land the helicopter off the top…" So we took a selfie,' he said.
After the choppers landed, the couple continued on their way where they ran into Tom strapping on a paraglider.
'I could tell it was him straight away,' Sarah said. 'By the time we got there, people were talking about Mission: Impossible was being filmed … but I was expecting a stunt double.'
'He apologised first for the noise,' Jason added. '"Sorry, guys, I know we spoiled your walk with the noise." And then he said, "I like your dog."'
'We asked, "What are you doing ?" Then he said, "I'm going to jump off." I was like, "You're going to do what?"
'He said, "I'm going to jump off." Just before he jumped off, he said, "See ya! Hopefully this goes well," and we said, "Good luck, Tom."
Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One has a current release date of July 14, 2023.
The film, the seventh in the franchise, will star Tom alongside Hayley Atwell, Hot Fuzz star Simon Pegg, Swedish actress Rebecca Ferguson and The Princess Bride star Cary Elwes.

A retired WA police officer with more than 40 years' service, who was a friend of ex-commissioner Karl O'Callaghan, is behind bars for sexually abusing three boys — offences he only admitted after two trials and an appeal.
Key points:
- The court heard Garry Edward Burton abused three boys, aged 11, 12 and 16
- Burton claims he can't remember the offences because he was suffering from PTSD
- After two trials he finally pleaded guilty to some of the charges
The former commissioner was one of the people who provided a reference for Garry Edward Burton, 65, who abused the boys, aged 11, 12 and 16, over more than a decade — between 2003 and 2014.
The District Court was told one of the victims, who wanted to be a police officer, was invited to stay at Burton's home on the pretext he was going to take the boy to see the police complex at Midland, but instead he abused him.
Another victim, who was 14, had an interest in a particular hobby which Burton used to get access to the boy.
The court heard Burton made it clear that in exchange for helping the boy with the hobby, he had to engage in sexual acts with him.
Some of the abuse of the other victim happened while Burton's wife was at church.
Burton was first charged in 2018, the year after he left the force, and pleaded not guilty to all the allegations.
He first stood trial last year and was found guilty by a jury of 24 offences.
He was sentenced to 10 years and 8 months jail, but he won an appeal against his conviction and a retrial was ordered.
It was midway through that re-trial that he pleaded guilty to 16 charges — the remaining 8 counts were discontinued.
Burton says he has no memory of offences
Throughout the court process, Burton has maintained he has no memory of the offences because, at the time, he had been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and depression as a result of trauma he had to deal with as a police officer.
Today his barrister, Phillip Dunn QC told the court Burton had been a junior officer with Karl O'Callaghan who at one point, at the Cannington station, was also in charge of him.
Mr Dunn said his client felt he could talk to Dr O'Callaghan "on a first name basis as a friend".
Mr Dunn highlighted that in the reference, Dr O'Callaghan said concerns about Burton's mental and physical health at the time were largely ignored by his supervisors.
Burton was described in court as being depressed, anxious and suicidal and because of that he was removed from operational duties and put into an administrative role because he was deemed not capable of dealing with the public.
Mr Dunn said that was around the same time Burton started offending.
"What we say is the offending occurred in a man who is psychologically damaged … not functioning in a very balanced and reasoned way," Mr Dunn submitted.
Judge questions Burton's remorse
During the hearing, Judge Carmel Barbagallo questioned why, after two trials — one of which the victims testified at — an appeal and then a plea of guilty, Burton had not yet said sorry to his victims saying, "I think that's what's ... missing here".
That prompted Burton's lawyers to take further instruction from him, leading to Mr Dunn telling the court "he says completely he is sorry to the three victims and their families".
"He deeply regrets his behaviour … what he has done to hurt them and their families, he is sorry for."
"It's taken some time for that five-letter word to be uttered," Judge Barbagallo replied.
Judge Barbagallo also questioned the submission that Burton was remorseful, with Mr Dunn arguing that his pleas of guilty were an indication of that.
"They saw him stand up and plead guilty, stand up in front of the victims and say 'I am guilty'," Mr Dunn said.
However, that prompted another query from Judge Barbagallo: "Why didn't he do that 18 months ago?"
'Notorious' inmate makes prison difficult
The court heard when he was initially sentenced to jail last year, he had to be kept "in a prison within a prison" because he had been a police officer.
Mr Dunn said that time had been particularly difficult for Burton, because a "notorious" inmate had taken a dislike to him which led to him spending 23 hours a day in his cell.
While Burton had been released on bail after he entered his pleas of guilty, today he was remanded in custody until he is sentenced.
His defence team has argued, because of his guilty pleas to only 16 of the 24 charges against him, he should receive a jail term lower than the original 10 years and 8 months. | https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-09-05/wa-police-officer-to-be-sentenced-for-child-sex-offences/101405370 | 2022-09-05T08:55:39Z | https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-09-05/wa-police-officer-to-be-sentenced-for-child-sex-offences/101405370 | true |

Bollywood stars join PETA rally for abused elephant Joymala’s release
Forest officials in Tamil Nadu reportedly told the Assam team the animal cannot be returned without Chief Minister M. K. Stalin’s approval.
:
Bollywood stars and celebrities from the world of music, sports and fashion have joined a social media campaign by the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India for the release of Joymala, a female elephant from Assam abused in a Tamil Nadu temple.
The campaign aims at sending Joymala – renamed Jeymalyatha in Tamil Nadu – to a rescue centre for immediate specialised care and an unchained life in the company of other elephants.
The celebrities who have lent their support to the #FreeElephantJeymalyatha campaign on Twitter include Madhuri Dixit, Raveena Tandon, Arjun Rampal, Aftab Shivdasani, Rahul Dev, Genelia Deshmukh, Sunny Leone, Papon, Kunal Kapur, Pooja Bhatt, Atul Kasbekar, Adah Sharma and Kavita Kaushik.
PETA India recently submitted a veterinary inspection report of Joymala conducted on July 27 to the Forest Department officials in Tamil Nadu and Assam. The report says the elephant’s current mahout used pliers on her skin, even in front of inspectors. The mahout forbade the inspectors from taking photographs and video footage, but they still managed to document her condition.
The inspection was conducted after two separate viral videos emerged, one in June 2022 and the other in February 2021, of Joymala being beaten so badly by different mahouts that she can be heard screaming. The beatings occurred in the sanctum sanctorum of the Krishnan Kovil temple near Srivilliputhur Nachiyar Thirukovil.
“The stars’ appeal to Tamil Nadu and Assam officials to rescue elephant Joymala follows that of caring people from across the nation who are concerned for her well-being and safety,” PETA India vice-president Sachin Bangera said.
“As a female elephant, Joymala would have already been disturbed from being forced to live a life of isolation. On top of that, this national heritage animal has had to sustain relentless beatings. It’s high time she was sent to a rescue centre where she can get the care she deserves to start recovering from her trauma,” he added.
Slew of complaints
Following complaints filed by PETA India and the intervention of the Animal Welfare Board of India, a first information report under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, and the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960, was registered against the mahout who beat Joymala in the June 2022 video.
In addition, a wildlife offence report under the Wild Life (Protection) Act (WPA), 1972, along with the Tamil Nadu Captive Elephant (Management and Maintenance) Rules, 2011, was reportedly registered by the Srivilliputhur Forest Range in July.
Tamil Nadu’s Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments Department had earlier suspended a mahout involved in beating the elephant in a video that surfaced in February 2021. The Tamil Nadu Forest Department booked him and his assistant under Section 13 of the Tamil Nadu Captive Elephants (Management and Maintenance) Rules, 2011, and Section 51 of the WPA, 1972. But there is evidence that Joymala continues to be abused, the PETA India said.
Meanwhile, the four-member Assam team in Tamil Nadu to inspect the condition of Joymala and try to bring her back, was reportedly denied permission to see the animal. The southern State’s Forest officials are also said to have told the team the elephant cannot be returned without Chief Minister M. K. Stalin’s approval.
The Assam team members were also reportedly told to return, but Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma advised the members to stay back.
Joymala was given on a six-month lease to Tamil Nadu from Assam in 2008 and never returned, making her continued use in the southern State illegal under the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972, officials in Assam said.

As area college students return to classes in Clark County, college administrators and health leaders are planning their responses to the spread of monkeypox in the state.
Congregate settings like college campuses have been a concern among health officials during the COVID-19 pandemic, and experts are urging extra caution among students as monkeypox cases increase worldwide.
In Clark County, Wittenberg University students returned to campus last week, and students of Clark State College began their return to school in August.
Monkeypox is a virus spread through close personal contact, often skin to skin, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). It causes a rash that may look like pimples or blisters that will form into to scabs before healing. Some people may have flu-like symptoms, which could come following the rash. Fatalities from the disease are rare.
Wittenberg University’s leaders are working with their partners at Mercy Health to monitor the monkeypox outbreak and “all guidance and health care guidelines put forth by the Clark County Combined Health District, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the World Health Organization,” according to the university’s Office of Student Development.
The office said that given “low” case numbers in the state and locally, it remains vigilant with monitoring but does “not plan to implement any specific restrictions at this time.”
As of Friday, 184 cases were reported statewide, with no cases confirmed in Clark County. Neighboring Montgomery County reported four cases, and Madison County reported one case, according to the Ohio Department of Health (ODH).
Some tests for potential cases of monkeypox have been conducted in Springfield and Clark County, but returned negative for the virus, according to the Clark County Combined Health District.
ODH reported that more than 97% of confirmed cases in the state have been reported among men, but health officials there also say that anyone can get monkeypox.
The Clark County Combined Health District is working with local healthcare providers to give out a very limited pool of monkeypox vaccines, which are being distributed among high-risk people using the CDC’s recommended tier approach.
Men, transgender women and non-binary people who have sex with men and either have risk factors or have a partner with risk factors are eligible for the vaccine. Risk factors include being HIV positive or living with AIDS, being diagnosed with a sexually transmitted disease or infection in the last 12 months, having a history of multiple or anonymous sex partners, and more.
Having a high risk of being exposed where they work, being a close contact of someone who has been diagnosed with or tested positive for monkeypox, having attended an event or activity where there were monkeypox cases or known transmission can also make someone eligible for the vaccine, according to the health district.
Mark Franz, the Clark State College’s senior vice president of technology, safety and strategic initiatives, said the college is working closely with the Clark County Combined Health District to put out information to students and college employees about the spread of the virus.
Clark State students with questions or concerns about the virus can contact the Leffel Lane campus’ Mercy Health clinic, located on the first floor of the Applied Science Center. The clinic can be reached at 937-523-9280.
Monkeypox can spread from person to person through direct contact with the rash, its scabs, or with body fluids. It also can be spread by respiratory secretions during prolonged, face-to-face contact, or during intimate physical contact, according to the CDC.
Franz said that if a student, faculty or staff were to believe they were exposed to the virus or may have contracted it, they should contact their healthcare provider immediately.
“Their healthcare provider or local department of health will be able to provide actionable information that will be relevant to the specific set of circumstances,” Franz said.
Clark State College will follow the recommendations of health departments and agencies in terms of quarantine protocol in the event of exposure or infection, a spokesperson confirmed.

BEIJING – A strong earthquake killed at least seven people, triggered landslides and shook residents in a major city under lockdown in southwestern China on Monday, state media reported.
The 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck a mountainous area in Luding county in Sichuan province shortly after noon, the China Earthquake Networks Center said.
Sichuan, which sits on the edge of the Tibetan Plateau where tectonic plates meet, is regularly hit by earthquakes. Two quakes in June killed at least four people.
Authorities reported seven deaths, landslides and damage to homes and power interruptions, state broadcaster CCTV said. One landslide blocked a rural highway, leaving it strewn with rocks, the Ministry of Emergency Management said.
The quake was felt 200 kilometers (125 miles) away in the provincial capital, Chengdu, where a COVID-19 outbreak has restricted most of its 21 million residents to their compounds under China's strict “zero-COVID” policy.
Resident Jiang Danli said she hid under a desk for five minutes in her 31st floor apartment, while many of her neighbors rushed downstairs.
“There was a strong earthquake in June, but it wasn’t very scary. This time I was really scared, because I live on a high floor and the shaking made me dizzy,” she told The Associated Press.
The earthquake and lockdown follow a heat wave and drought that led to water shortages and power cuts due to Sichuan’s reliance on hydropower.
The past two months in Chengdu “have been weird," Jiang said.
The U.S. Geological Survey recorded a magnitude of 6.6 for Monday's quake at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles). Preliminary measurements by different agencies often differ slightly.
China’s deadliest earthquake in recent years was a 7.9 magnitude quake in 2008 that killed nearly 90,000 people in Sichuan. The temblor devastated towns, schools and rural communities outside Chengdu, leading to a years-long effort to rebuild with more resistant materials. | https://www.clickorlando.com/news/world/2022/09/05/7-dead-after-powerful-quake-shakes-southwest-china/ | 2022-09-05T09:36:41Z | https://www.clickorlando.com/news/world/2022/09/05/7-dead-after-powerful-quake-shakes-southwest-china/ | true |
1 dead, 9 missing after floatplane crashes in Washington’s Puget Sound
One person was killed and nine people remained missing, including a child, after a floatplane crashed Sunday afternoon in Puget Sound in Washington state, the U.S. Coast Guard said.
The agency said in a press release that the plane was flying from Friday Harbor, a popular tourist destination in the San Juan Islands, to Renton, a southern suburb of Seattle.
Four Coast Guard vessels, a rescue helicopter and an aircraft were involved in the extensive search, along with nearby rescue and law-enforcement agencies. Two vessels were to continue searching during the night, and air patrols would resume at first light, the Coast Guard said late Sunday.
The crash was reported at 3:11 p.m. Sunday. The Coast Guard said one body had been recovered and nine people were still missing. The cause of the crash is unknown, authorities said.
The plane went down in Mutiny Bay off Whidbey Island, roughly 30 miles northwest of downtown Seattle and about halfway between Friday Harbor and Renton.
The National Transportation Safety Board said the plane was a De Havilland DHC-3 Otter, a single-engine propeller plane.
Canadian police say 10 people are dead in 13 locations at two communities in Saskatchewan.
Floatplanes, which have pontoons allowing them to land on water, are a common sight around Puget Sound, an inlet of the Pacific Ocean. There are multiple flights daily between the Seattle area and the San Juan Islands, a scenic archipelago northwest of Seattle that draws tourists from around the world.
These aircraft, which also fly between Seattle and Vancouver frequently travel over Seattle and land in Lake Washington, not far from the city’s iconic Space Needle.
Renton, where authorities say the flight was headed Sunday, is at the southern tip of Lake Washington, about 10 miles southeast of Seattle.
In 2019, a midair crash in Alaska between two sightseeing planes killed six people. The Ketchikan-based floatplanes were carrying passengers from the same cruise ship, the Royal Princess, and were returning from tours of Misty Fjords National Monument.

EDITOR – Children and parents (almost exclusively mothers) are at the mercy of a flawed and insidious construct in the family courts known as ‘parental alienation’.
Parental Alienation (PA) has found its way into the family courts in Ireland in recent years and has been gaining some mainstream media attention in recent times, but not for the right reasons.
Rather than exposing this damaging and debunked pseudo-science for what it is, some prominent Irish radio and TV outlets have given platforms to advocates of PA.
In its recent submission to the Department of Justice on parental alienation, Women’s Aid draws from a growing body of international research basically concluding that PA is a dangerous and damaging concept which, when used as a legal strategy by abusive parents to undermine the voice and rights of the child and parent who allege abuse, it ultimately results in the child being placed with the abusive parent against their will and access being removed from the preferred parent.
PA is causing extreme trauma and harm to children and most exclusively mothers. Worse is the fact that PA is used in family courts at the whim of so called ‘experts’ who answer, it seems, to nobody.
Worse, still, is the fact that many PA ‘experts’ advocate for and provide a ‘treatment’ known as ‘reunification therapy’ or ‘deprogramming’.
This is effectively a form of brain-washing a child to build a positive relationship with the very parent which they have accused of abuse.
Both PA and reunification therapy are completely at odds with the Rights of the Child, as this quote from The Childrens Rights Alliance confers:
‘We know there can be major issues regarding family breakdowns, and these can have a huge impact on the child or young person. We believe all decisions being made in family law cases should be done with careful consideration of the best interest of the child, in line with the Child and Family Relationships Act 2015. As part of this, the voice of the child must be heard and given due weight.’
Ireland has a bleak history of failing to protect its women and children from abuse. Let us not allow this fresh violation to fester and grow behind a wall of silence in our family courts.

Youth deserve better sex-ed programme
EDITOR – Submissions are invited on the proposed revised Junior Cert, SPHE Relationships and Sexuality Education programme.
Having reviewed it, I conclude that it’s a more intensified version of our current model, which year on year has driven ever rising levels of “health issues”, victimhood, and relationship breakdown (assault, abortion, divorce, child-neglect). It is founded upon the 3xCs of choice, consent, and contraceptives; pride ideology on steroids.
The course overlooks the basics. Marriage (as one man and one woman, living in fidelity for life, welcoming children) is absent from the landscape of aspirations. Moral awareness ie, choosing the better option, so as to attain worthy goals, is likewise absent. Virtues, an essential foundation upon which to fully appreciate the other, and build a fulfilling, meaningful, life together – one which also contributes to the wellbeing of society – are also missing. The absence of modesty – by which we establish personal boundaries, enabling us to relate and grow on a person-to-person basis – is most regrettable.
This programme seems to envisage teenage socialising as analogous to a kind of amusement park, where superficiality, self-indulgence, and evading boredom are the priority. It has no place in our schools. Could those who wish to follow this consumeristic approach to relationships and sexuality not do so after school hours?

Yellow rain warning for Cork

Christianity is about sharing in the victory of Christ, who more than we ourselves, knows what is best for us, wants what is best for us, and makes this a reality in our lives.
This programme is intrusive, dismissive of parental Constitutional rights, religious perspectives, and is ambivalent to the individual child’s developmental-stage.
Our youth deserve much better.

Five wonderful days remembering Michael
EDITOR – Myself and my wife spent five days in West Cork for the centenary of Michael Collins and were honoured to attend the events.
We would like to thank all the organisers of the successful events as I’m sure it wasn’t easy, must have been very time-consuming and put everyone under great pressure.
It was a most enjoyable time which we will never forget and we know that the memory of Michael will live on.
We would like to say a massive thanks to the people at Béal na Bláth, Woodfield, Sam’s Cross and Lisavaird who put their names to my Irish flag on the 21st and 22nd at the events which we attended, the folk back home here couldn’t get over it, and I intend to read the names on the flag every year on his anniversary. It will bring back wonderful memories.
Arís, buíochas le gach daoine agus b’fhéidir go mbeidh muid le cheíle arís lá éigin,

NEW YORK (AP) — Coco Gauff raised a fist, then wagged her right index finger, responding to, and riling up even more, a loud-louder-loudest Arthur Ashe Stadium crowd that was standing and screaming. Gauff’s U.S. Open opponent, Zhang Shuai, covered both ears with her hands to shield them from what she described later as a “Boom!” of sound.
Gauff and her fans were reacting excitedly to quite a point, one in which the 18-year-old Floridian raced to her right for a defensive forehand, then changed directions to sprint and slide into a backhand that drew a netted volley from Zhang. Just four points later, Gauff was a quarterfinalist at Flushing Meadows for the first time.
Gauff, the French Open runner-up in June, came back in each set to beat China’s Zhang 7-5, 7-5 on Sunday to become the youngest American to make it this far at the U.S. Open since Melanie Oudin was 17 in 2009.
“Here, I can’t hear myself scream. Makes me want to do it more. I think I’m feeding off the momentum a lot. I enjoy it,” said No. 12 seed Gauff, who meets No. 17 Caroline Garcia of France on Tuesday. “New York is bringing out a side of me that I haven’t had since I was 15, so it’s nice.”
Nick Kyrgios is playing much better than he ever has at Flushing Meadows, too, building off the momentum of his run to the Wimbledon final in July, and he eliminated defending champion and No. 1-ranked Daniil Medvedev 7-6 (11), 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 on Sunday night.
The 23rd-seeded Kyrgios was up to some of his usual behavior — warned for cursing, yelling at his guest box, playing to the crowd — but he also outplayed Medvedev in a high-quality match.
“I’m just glad I’m finally able to show New York my talent,” said Kyrgios, never past the third round at the U.S. Open until now. “I haven’t had too many great trips here.”
He’ll play No. 27 seed Karen Khachanov on Tuesday, when the other’s men’s quarterfinal on the top half of the bracket is 2022 French Open runner-up Casper Ruud against 2021 Wimbledon runner-up Matteo Berrettini.
Medvedev will relinquish the top spot in the rankings after the U.S. Open, with Ruud joining Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz as players with a chance to replace him.
After trailing 5-4 in the opening set, then 5-3 in the second, which she was a point from losing, Gauff was buoyed by spectators who cheered her every point and chanted “Let’s go, Coco!” as the end neared. She improved to 4-0 in Ashe this year after having never previously won a match at the biggest arena in Grand Slam tennis.
How loud was it?
“It got so racuous in there that I got a headache. I had to take an Advil,” said Gauff’s father, Corey. “I kept pinching myself. I’m like, ‘My gosh, all of these people here for my daughter.’ You dream about this, but you never know if you’re going to realize that. She was pumping herself up and they responded to her. It sent chills up my spine.”
Zhang, at 33 the oldest woman to reach the fourth round, said it was more noise than she’s ever heard at a match.
She praised Gauff’s play, calling her “a superstar” and adding: “Everything is very good. She’s so much younger than me. Her energy is so much better. She’s faster. She’s powerful.”
They competed mostly from the baseline, and the longer the exchanges, the more success Gauff found: She claimed a 45-26 edge in points that lasted five or more strokes.
Garcia is coming off a hard-court title at Cincinnati and stretched her winning streak to 12 matches by defeating No. 29 Alison Riske-Amritraj of the U.S. 6-4, 6-1.
“I’m super excited, actually, to play Coco — in U.S., in New York, quarterfinal of a Slam. It’s great,” Garcia said.
The other quarterfinal on that half of the women’s field will be between Ajla Tomljanovic, the player who beat Serena Williams in the third round, and No. 5 Ons Jabeur, who was the runner-up at Wimbledon. Tomljanovic got past Liudmila Samsonova 7-6 (8), 6-1 at Louis Armstrong Stadium in a matchup between unseeded players, while Jabeur defeated No. 18 Veronika Kudermetova 7-6 (1), 6-4.
Tomljanovic is a 29-year-old Australian who is now into her third Grand Slam quarterfinal after making it that far at Wimbledon the past two years. On Wednesday, Tomljanovic beat Williams in three sets in what is expected to be the last match of the 23-time Grand Slam champion’s career.
In Gauff-Zhang, the whirring of the Ashe retractable roof being pulled shut accompanied the start of the second set because of showers that started soon after, and it took a while for the artificial lights to reach full strength. The match proceeded, even though it was rather dark — and quite humid — indoors.
Zhang started getting a bit better of the back-and-forth midway through the second set, and when she hit a backhand winner of her own, she broke to lead 5-3.
Last year’s U.S. Open doubles champion — she and Sam Stosur beat Gauff and Caty McNally in the final — served to force a third set, and was a point away from getting there, but Gauff steeled herself and stood her ground.
That set point was frittered away when Zhang sent a backhand long. Gauff smacked — what else? — a down-the-line backhand winner for her third break point of that game, then delivered a good return to a corner that drew a long backhand to make it 5-4 and start a four-game, match-closing run.
Everyone’s known how talented Gauff is for a while now. After all, at 15, she became the youngest qualifier in Wimbledon history in 2019, beat Venus Williams in the first round of the main draw and made it all the way to the fourth. There have been more steps along the way, more achievements — last month, she became the second-youngest doubles No. 1 in WTA history — and her ever-developing game — the most notable recent improvements were to her forehand and second serve — keeps carrying her closer to the top of the singles rankings and closer to a Grand Slam title.
And at this point, having the full sport of more than 20,000 folks in Ashe doesn’t hurt, either.
“She’s found a home there,” Dad said. “I hope she’s going to play there for the rest of the tournament.”

ISTANBUL (AP) — Turkey’s annual inflation passed 80% in August, according to official data on Monday, further hitting consumers facing high energy, food and housing costs.
The Turkish Statistical Institute said consumer prices rose by 80.21% from a year earlier, up 0.6 percentage points from the previous month.
Independent experts say inflation is much higher than official statistics. The Inflation Research Group put the annual rate at 181%.
The central bank unexpectedly cut interest rates to 13% in August despite rising prices, a plunging lira and an unbalanced current account. The central bank slashed interest rates by 5 percentage points between September and December last year. The rate then stayed at 14% until last month.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the lira’s decline have stoked inflation. The lira has plunged over 50% against the U.S. dollar since the central bank began cutting rates.
Economists say rising inflation in Turkey is fuelled by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s unorthodox belief that high borrowing costs lead to higher prices — the opposite to established economic theory.
The government says it hopes to lower interest rates to boost production and exports in a bid to reach a current account surplus. | https://www.wfla.com/business/ap-business/ap-turkeys-annual-inflation-passes-80-after-interest-rate-cut/ | 2022-09-05T09:51:36Z | https://www.wfla.com/business/ap-business/ap-turkeys-annual-inflation-passes-80-after-interest-rate-cut/ | true |
REGINA, Saskatchewan (AP) — Canadian police searched across the expansive province of Saskatchewan for two suspects believed to have stabbed to death 10 people in an Indigenous community and a nearby town in one of the deadliest mass killings in the country’s history.
The suspects also injured 15 people in the series of knife attacks that led the James Smith Cree Nation to declare a state of emergency and badly shook residents of the nearby village of Weldon.
“No one in this town is ever going to sleep again. They’re going to be terrified to open their door,” said Weldon resident Ruby Works, who was close to one of the victims.
Police, meanwhile, said a vehicle reportedly carrying the two suspects had been spotted in Regina, about 335 kilometers (208 miles) south of the communities where the stabbings occurred.
Regina police chief Evan Bray said late Sunday they still believe the suspects are in Regina.
“If in the Regina area, take precautions & consider sheltering in place. Do not leave a secure location. DO NOT APPROACH suspicious persons. Do not pick up hitch hikers. Report suspicious persons, emergencies or info to 9-1-1. Do not disclose police locations,” the RCMP said in a message on Twitter.
The suspects were identified as Damien Sanderson, 31, and Myles Sanderson, 30.
“It is horrific what has occurred in our province today,” said Rhonda Blackmore, the Assistant Commissioner of the RCMP in Saskatchewan, adding there were 13 crime scenes where either deceased or injured people were found.
Blackmore said some of the victims appear to have been targeted by the suspects but others appear to have been attacked at random.
She couldn’t provide a motive, but the chief of the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations gave a statement suggesting the stabbings could be drug-related.
The elected leaders of the three communities that make up the James Smith Cree Nation, including the Chakastaypasin Band and the Peter Chapman Band, declared a local state of emergency and opened up two emergency operations centers.
Chakastaypasin Chief Calvin Sanderson — who is not related to the suspects — said everyone has been affected by the tragic events.
“They were our relatives, friends,” Sanderson said of the victims. “It’s pretty horrific.”
“This is the destruction we face when harmful illegal drugs invade our communities, and we demand all authorities to take direction from the Chiefs and Councils and their membership to create safer and healthier communities for our people,” said Chief Bobby Cameron of the Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nations.
Among the 10 victims killed was Lana Head, who is the former partner of Michael Brett Burns and the mother of their two daughters.
“It’s sick how jail time, drugs and alcohol can destroy many lives,” Burns told the Aboriginal Peoples Television Network. “I’m hurt for all this loss.”
Last May, Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers issued a wanted list that included Myles Sanderson, writing that he was “unlawfully at large.”
The attack is among the deadliest mass killings in Canadian history. The deadliest gun rampage in Canadian history happened in 2020 when a man disguised as a police officer shot people in their homes and set fires across the province of Nova Scotia, killing 22 people. A man used a van to kill 10 pedestrians in Toronto in 2019. But mass killings are less common in Canada than in the United States.
Deadly mass stabbings are more rare than mass shootings but have happened around the world. In 2014, 29 people were slashed and stabbed to death at a train station in China’s southwestern city of Kunming. In 2016, a mass stabbing at a facility for the mentally disabled in Sagamihara, Japan, left 19 people dead. A year later, three men killed eight people in a vehicle and stabbing attack at London Bridge.
Doreen Lees, an 89-year grandmother from Weldon, said she and her daughter thought they saw one of the suspects when a car came barreling down her street early in the morning Sunday as her daughter was having coffee on her deck. Lees said a man approached them and said he was hurt and needed help.
But Lees said the man took off and ran after her daughter said she would call for help.
“He wouldn’t show his face. He had a big jacket over his face. We asked his name and he kind of mumbled his name twice and we still couldn’t get it,” she said. “He said his face was injured so bad he couldn’t show it.”
She said the man was by himself and “kind of a little wobbly.”
“I followed him a little ways to see if he was going to be OK. My daughter said ‘Don’t follow him, get back here.’”
Weldon residents have identified one of the victims as Wes Petterson. Ruby Works said the 77-year-old widower was like an uncle to her.
“I collapsed and hit the ground. I’ve known him since I was just a little girl,″ she said, describing the moment she heard the news. She said he loved his cats, was proud of his homemade Saskatoon berry jam and frequently helped out his neighbors.
“He didn’t do anything. He didn’t deserve this. He was a good, kind hearted man,″ said Works.
Weldon resident Robert Rush also described the victim as a gentle, widowed man in his 70s.
“He wouldn’t hurt a fly,” he said.
Rush said Petterson’s adult grandson was in the basement at the time and phoned police.
At the Weldon Christian Tabernacle Church the congregation began their regular Sunday service by saying a special prayer to the victims and their families.
At the James Smith Cree Nation, a convenience store that also serves as a gas station became a gathering place for community members, who greeted each other with tears and hugs.
A sign on the door said: “Due to safety concerns with our community we will remain closed until further notice.”
The search for suspects was carried out as fans descended on Regina for a sold out annual Labor Day game between the Canadian Football League’s Saskatchewan Roughriders and Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
The Regina Police Service said in a news release that with the help of Mounties, it was working on several fronts to locate and arrest the suspects and had “deployed additional resources for public safety throughout the city, including the football game at Mosaic Stadium.″
The alert first issued by Melfort, Saskatchewan RCMP about 7 a.m. was extended hours later to cover Manitoba and Alberta, as the two suspects remained at large.
The Saskatchewan Health Authority said multiple patients were being treated at several sites.
“A call for additional staff was issued to respond to the influx of casualties,” authority spokeswoman Anne Linemann said in an email.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in a statement he was “shocked and devastated by the horrific attacks.”
“As Canadians, we mourn with everyone affected by this tragic violence, and with the people of Saskatchewan,” Trudeau said.

BEIJING (AP) — China on Monday accused Washington of breaking into computers at a university that U.S. officials say does military research, adding to complaints by both governments of rampant online spying against each other.
Northwestern Polytechnical University reported computer break-ins in June, the National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center announced. It said the center, working with a commercial security provider, Qihoo 360 Technology Co., traced the attacks to the National Security Agency but didn’t say how that was done.
China and the United States are, along with Russia, regarded as global leaders in cyber-warfare research.
China accuses the United States of spying on universities, energy and internet companies and other targets. Washington accuses Beijing of stealing commercial secrets and has announced criminal charges against Chinese military officers.
The U.S. actions “seriously endanger China’s national security,” said Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning. She also accused Washington of eavesdropping on Chinese mobile phones and stealing text messages.
“China strongly condemns it,” Mao said. “The United States should immediately stop using its advantages to steal secrets and attack other countries.”
The American Embassy in Beijing didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
Security experts say the ruling Communist Party’s military wing, the People’s Liberation Army, and the Ministry of State Security also sponsor hackers outside the government.
Northwestern Polytechnical University, in the western city of Xi’an, is on a U.S. government “entity list” that limits its access to American technology. Washington says the university helps the PLA develop aerial and underwater drones and missile technology.
Monday’s announcement accused the United States of taking information about the university’s network management and other “core technologies.” It said Chinese analysts found 41 “network attack” tools that it said were traced to the NSA.
Last year, a Chinese man, Shuren Qin, was sentenced to two years in prison by a federal court in Boston after he pleaded guilty to exporting underwater and marine technology to Northwestern Polytechnical University without required licenses.
The NSA, part of the Department of Defense, is responsible for “signals intelligence,” or obtaining communications and other data.
The Computer Virus Emergency Response Center, set up in 1996 by the police department of the eastern city of Tianjin, describes itself as the Chinese agency responsible for inspection and testing of anti-computer virus products.
A report by Qihoo 360 in 2020 said hacking tools used in attacks on Chinese companies and government agencies in 2008-19 were traced to the Central Intelligence Agency by comparing them with code in CIA tools disclosed by the Wikileaks group.
The virus center accused the NSA of carrying out other “malicious network attacks” in China but gave no details. It said 13 people involved in the attacks had been identified.
The hackers targeted a “zero day,” or previously unreported, vulnerability in the school’s security, the statement said. It said the break-ins were conducted from servers in 17 countries including Japan, South Korea, Sweden, Poland, Ukraine and Colombia.
The statement described what it said were NSA software tools with names such as “Second Date” and “Drinking Tea” but didn’t say which might have been used at the university. | https://www.wfla.com/news/international/ap-international/ap-china-accuses-washington-of-cyber-spying-on-university/ | 2022-09-05T09:52:32Z | https://www.wfla.com/news/international/ap-international/ap-china-accuses-washington-of-cyber-spying-on-university/ | false |
Those who called President Biden “sleepy” are wrong again. The president signed a semiconductor production bill to boost American semiconductor research, development and production to alleviate our reliance on China.
He appointed 70 judges to the federal bench. His Supreme Court appointment was confirmed. He signed a veteran burn pits bill because he cares about our veterans. Medicare now has the power to negotiate some drug prices and caps Medicare out-of-pocket costs at $2,000. He reauthorized the Violence against Women Act.
While Trump lost millions of jobs because of his incompetent handling of the COVID epidemic, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan that expanded access to vaccines and testing, provided economic relief that kept millions of children out of poverty, prevented evictions and foreclosures and boosted job growth to over 10 million jobs.
The newly signed inflation bill means $65 billion for clean energy in Texas. The infrastructure bill will spend money on our nation’s infrastructure for roads, bridges, and other major projects.
Trump left office with unemployment at 6.7% and a loss of millions of jobs. Our current unemployment rate is 3.7%.
Biden signed a bipartisan gun safety bill. Biden signed a bill imposing a minimum tax on billion-dollar companies, some of whom have not paid any tax at all.
In case you blame Biden for 8.5% inflation rate, know that the inflation rate in London is 10.6, 23% in Lithuania, 68% in Turkey, and 640% in Venezuela. Inflation is a world-wide problem caused by the pandemic.

Russia sees extra $6.7 bln in September revenue on higher oil prices
Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com
MOSCOW, Sept 5 (Reuters) - Russia's finance ministry said on Monday it expects an additional 403.4 billion roubles ($6.65 billion) in budget revenue in September thanks to higher oil prices.
It said it did not plan to use extra budget revenue to buy foreign exchange or gold on the market, as such purchases under the budget rule were suspended in early 2022.
Russia is considering buying the currencies of "friendly" countries such as China, India and Turkey to hold in its National Wealth Fund (NWF), having lost the ability to buy dollars or euros under the budget rule due to sanctions. read more

LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Spider-Man: No Way Home” has swung back on top of the box office during a holiday weekend where American theaters aimed to lure moviegoers with discounted $3 tickets.
The first “National Cinema Day” nationwide promotion became the highest-attended day of the year, drawing an estimated 8.1 million moviegoers on Saturday, according to The Cinema Foundation. The one-day event – offered on more than 30,000 screens and held in more than 3,000 theaters, including major chains AMC and Regal Cinemas – collected preliminary box office returns of $24.3 million, according to data firm Comscore.
National Cinema Day was intended to flood theaters with moviegoers during a Labor Day weekend, which is traditionally one of the slowest weekends in the industry. The promotion looked to prompt people to return in the fall, inspired by a sizzle reel of the upcoming films from major studios including Disney, Lionsgate, Sony and A24.
“This event outstripped our biggest expectations,” said Jackie Brenneman, president of the Cinema Foundation, a nonprofit arm of the National Association of Theater Owners, in a statement. “The idea of the day was to thank moviegoers for an amazing summer, and now we have to thank them for an amazing day.”
Some other countries have experimented with a similar day of cheap movie tickets, but Saturday’s promotion was the first of its kind on such a large scale in the U.S. Organizers of the National Cinema Day said the event could become an annual fixture.
“This proves that people love going to the theaters,” said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for Comscore. “Pricing is always a consideration.”
The top three performing movie titles for the day included Tom Cruise’s “Top Gun: Maverick,” The Rock and Kevin Hart’s “DC League of Super Pets” and Brad Pitt’s “Bullet Train.” Another top draw was “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” which recaptured the No. 1 box office spot for the weekend.
With never-seen footage, the re-release of the Sony and Marvel blockbuster superhero film starring Tom Holland and Zendaya brought in an estimated $6 million. “Top Gun” followed with $5.5 million, “Super Pets” garnered $5.45 million, “Bullet Train” pulled in $5.4 million and last week’s top earner “The Invitation” grossed $4.7 million to round out the top five.
The re-release of Steven Spielberg’s 1975 classic “Jaws,” on big screens for the first time in 3D, nabbed the final spot among the weekend’s top 10 performers.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore. Final domestic figures will be released Monday.
1. “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” $6 million.
2. “Top Gun: Maverick,” $5.5 million.
3. “DC League of Super Pets,” $5.45 million.
4. “Bullet Train,” $5.4 million.
5. “The Invitation,” $4.7 million.
6. “Beast,” $3.6 million.
7. “Minions: The Rise of Gru,” $3.1 million.
8. “Thor: Love and Thunder,” $2.4 million.
9. “Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero,” $2.4 million.
10. “Jaws” (1975), $2.3 million. | https://phl17.com/national-news/ap-spidey-tops-box-office-while-cinema-day-draws-millions/ | 2022-09-05T10:20:21Z | https://phl17.com/national-news/ap-spidey-tops-box-office-while-cinema-day-draws-millions/ | false |
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Pedro Castillo’s surprise election brought hopes for change in Peru’s unstable and corrupt political system, but the impoverished rural teacher and political neophyte has found himself so engulfed in impeachment votes and corruption allegations that his presidency has become an exercise in political survival.
Chances the leftist leader could accomplish a signature policy such as improving education or health care were slim to begin with, given his lack of support in Congress, and have evaporated as he focuses on staying in office and his family’s freedom.
In just over one year as president, Castillo has survived two congressional votes to oust him, named more than 60 ministers to the 19 agencies that make up his cabinet and confronted six criminal investigations into accusations ranging from influence peddling to plagiarism, one that recently saw a close relative imprisoned. The probes are in their initial stages and no formal charges have been filed.
Castillo says he has not had a “single minute of truce” since taking office and blames it on Peru’s political elite wanting him gone.
“I don’t speak like them, I don’t sit at those opulent tables like them,” he told people gathered at a remote desert community. Later, he told a group of mothers outside a recently restored school that he comes from the lower class and that the accusations will not “break” him.
But Castillo’s tribulations follow a pattern in Peru, which recently had three different presidents in a single week after one was impeached by Congress and protests forced his successor to resign. Almost all former Peruvian presidents who governed since 1985 have been ensnared in corruption allegations, some imprisoned or arrested in their mansions. One died by suicide before police could arrest him. Castillo defeated the daughter of one of those presidents, Alberto Fujimori, during last year’s elections.
The preliminary investigations by prosecutors against Castillo are a first for a sitting president in Peru, as is the preventative detention of his sister-in-law stemming from money laundering allegations.
Peru’s constitution does not specifically say whether a sitting president can be investigated for crimes, and in the last two decades, attorneys general had proposed initiating initial investigations of three acting presidents. One against then-president Martín Vizcarra was opened in October 2020, but the attorney general immediately froze it until the end of the presidential term.
Now, however, there is a new attorney general, Patricia Benavides, who has promised to go “after the investigation of any criminal act, whether it be by the most powerful or any ordinary citizen.”
When he assumed power, Castillo not only faced a fragmented Congress and his own political inexperience, but a distrustful elite upset with controversial campaign promises that included nationalizing key industries.
Castillo was a rural schoolteacher in Peru’s third poorest district before he moved into the presidential palace. His only leadership experience before becoming president was as the head of a teachers’ strike in 2017.
That inexperience makes some doubt whether he is the “ringleader” of corruption scheme, as critics allege.
“That said, you can’t look at Castillo’s record and say, ‘Hey, this guy is honest.’ So, how do we put those together?” said Cynthia McClintock, a political science professor at George Washington University who has studied Peru extensively. “My sense of it is that part of him doesn’t quite understand how careful he should be. Whether he just sort of thought this was the way you do business? It’s unclear at this point.”
Five of the probes against Castillo are linked to what prosecutors describe as a criminal network led by the president, involving influence peddling and other crimes. A sixth investigation accuses him and his wife of plagiarizing their master’s degree theses a decade ago.
One case involves a contract won by a group of businessmen in 2021 to build a bridge. Authorities say an informant claims former Transportation Minister Juan Silva told him late last year that Castillo was “happy” when he received $12,900 after the contract was awarded. Silva is considered a fugitive.
In another case, prosecutors allege that Castillo, his former personal secretary and a former minister of defense requested the promotion of several military or police officers because those moves would net them money. Authorities say they have statements from the ex-head of the Army, José Vizcarra, claiming he was pressured to promote military personnel close to the government.
Authorities also suspect Castillo of obstructing justice for removing an interior minister who had set up a team to capture Silva and one of the president’s nephews, who is also linked to the bridge contract investigation.
“Ideally, the president would resign,” Lady Camones, head of Peru’s Congress, said last month. “He has been asked to do so… It would be the ideal scenario. But let’s hope in any case that the evaluation is made by the president.”
In a separate preliminary investigation, agents of the prosecutor’s office last month entered the presidential palace in Lima to arrest Yenifer Paredes, Castillo’s sister-in-law, whom he raised and considers a daughter. They searched under Castillo’s bed and in the closets of the presidential bedroom, according to a search report obtained by The Associated Press.
Paredes turned herself in a day later. A judge then ruled she can be detained until February 2025 while authorities investigate her alleged involvement in money laundering.
“They don’t mind breaking the family. They don’t mind leaving our children orphaned, a situation has been designed with the purpose of breaking us,” Castillo said.
Paredes’ attorney, José Dionicio, said prosecutors have no evidence against his client.
Historian Charles Walker, director of the Hemispheric Institute on the Americas at the University of California, Davis, said Castillo’s position is a reflection of the ingrained corruption surrounding government and an implacable opposition that feels it is losing power.
“It’s a perfectly wretched storm,” Walker said. “It does seem that, around him, there is a circle of people getting contracts, doing shoddy work — I mean classic, almost traditional corruption.
“But on the other hand, you have this right wing that feels like it’s besieged Vietnam, that the ultra-left has taken over … and there’s this incredible paranoia. I think this almost needs psychological explanation because most of their benefits are still intact; the elite economy is doing quite well.” | https://phl17.com/news/international/ap-international/ap-challenges-mount-against-perus-president-his-family/ | 2022-09-05T10:21:47Z | https://phl17.com/news/international/ap-international/ap-challenges-mount-against-perus-president-his-family/ | true |
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Energy problems plagued Ukraine and Europe as much of the Russian-occupied region that’s home to a largely crippled nuclear power plant was reported temporarily in blackout Sunday.
Only one of six reactors at the Zaporizhzhia facility was connected to the electricity grid, and Russia’s main pipeline carrying natural gas to Germany remained shut down.
The fighting in Ukraine and related disputes over pipelines lie behind the electricity and natural gas shortfalls that have worsened as Russia’s war in Ukraine, which began on Feb. 24, grinds on for a seventh month.
Both issues will take center stage this week. U.N. nuclear agency inspectors are scheduled to brief the Security Council on Tuesday about their inspection and safeguard visit to the Zaporizhzhia power plant. European Union energy ministers were slated to hold an emergency meeting Friday in Brussels to discuss the bloc’s electricity market, which European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has said “is no longer operating.”
Much of the Zaporizhzhia region, including the key city of Melitopol, lost power Sunday.
But electricity was gradually being restored, said Vladimir Rogov, the head of the Russia-installed local administration in Enerhodar, the city where the nuclear power plant is located. To the southwest, power was also out in several parts of the port city of Kherson, according to Russia’s Tass news agency. Rogov blamed the outages in both locations on damage to high-voltage power lines.
While Rogov said no new shelling of the area around the six-reactor Zaporizhzhia plant was reported Sunday, the effects of earlier strikes lingered.
The International Atomic Energy Agency said Saturday that the plant was disconnected from its last main external power line and one reactor was disconnected because of grid restrictions. Another reactor was still operating and producing electricity for cooling and other essential safety functions at the site, as well as externally for households, factories and others through a reserve power line, the IAEA said.
Russian forces have held the Zaporizhzhia facility, Europe’s largest nuclear plant, since early March, with its Ukrainian staff continuing to operate it.
IAEA Director-General Rafael Grossi said he will brief the U.N. Security Council on Tuesday on a mission he led to the plant last week. The 14-member delegation braved gunfire and artillery blasts to reach the plant last Thursday after months of negotiations to enable passage through the fighting’s front lines.
Without blaming either warring side, Grossi said his big concerns are the plant’s physical integrity, its power supply and the staff’s condition.
Europe’s energy picture remained clouded by the war in Ukraine.
Just hours before Russian energy company Gazprom was due to resume natural gas deliveries to Germany through a major pipeline after a three-day stoppage, it announced Friday that it couldn’t do so until oil leaks in turbines are fixed.
That is the latest development in a saga in which Gazprom has advanced technical problems as the reason for reducing gas flows through Nord Stream 1 — explanations that German officials have rejected as a cover for a political power play. Dismissing Gazprom’s latest rationale for the shutdown, Germany’s Siemens Energy — which manufactured turbines the pipeline uses —- said turbine leaks can be fixed while gas continues to flow through the pipeline.
Von der Leyen blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war against Ukraine for Europe’s energy crisis. Before the EU energy ministers’ meeting this coming Friday, she said electricity and natural gas prices should be decoupled and that she supports a price cap on Russian pipeline gas exported to Europe.
Natural gas is one of the main fuels used in electricity generation, and is a major source of Russia’s income, along with oil exports.
On Ukraine’s battlefield, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in his nightly video address Sunday, without providing specifics, that his country’s forces had retaken control of two settlements in Ukraine’s south and one in the separatist eastern Donetsk region.
Russian shelling hit the southern Ukraine port city of Mykolaiv during the night, damaging a medical treatment facility, the city’s mayor said Sunday.
Mykolaiv and its surrounding region have been hit daily for weeks. On Saturday, a child was killed and five people were wounded in rocket attacks in the region, Gov. Vitaliy Kim said.
Mykolaiv Mayor Oleksandr Senkevych didn’t report injuries in the overnight attack, which he said also damaged residences. Mykolaiv, which is 30 kilometers (20 miles) upstream from the Black Sea on the Southern Bug River, is a significant port and shipbuilding center.
In Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, Russian shelling late Saturday set a large wooden restaurant complex on fire, according to the region’s emergency service. One person was killed and two others were wounded in shelling in the region, Gov. Oleh Syniehubov said.
Pavlo Kyrylenko, governor of the eastern Donetsk region where Russian forces have been trying to take full control, said four people were killed in shelling on Saturday.

Peoria restaurant owner sees 'increase after increase' in costs of doing business
Finding adequate staffing has been a struggle for Dan Kouri, co-owner of the Lariat Steakhouse, Kouri’s Grill & Bar and a Sonic Restaurant. He said the Lariat is operating with 70% of the staff it needs.
“It really is what everybody's been saying, that the labor market is extremely tight in the Peoria market," said Kouri, who is also president of the Heart of Illinois Hospitality Association.
A lack of staff has forced some local restaurants to cut back on hours and days of operation. Sid Ruckriegel, an entrepreneur and at-large member of Peoria City Council, said curbing hours can work well for businesses looking to maximize service with a limited staff.

But Kouri disagrees with this approach. Every day a business is closed, he said, owners are losing money that could be used to pay rent, taxes and other recurring costs.
“All that stuff keeps on coming and there’s no reprieve from that,” Kouri said. “So, it's a snowball effect and sooner or later, these places aren’t going to survive.”
At the Lariat Steakhouse, Kouri recounted one night when a customer was left shocked by the price of alcoholic beverages at the restaurant. Although he said the customer was understanding when he explained the rising costs of operation, Kouri said many customers are surprised to learn just how drastically inflation is affecting restaurants.
Even the price of Heinz ketchup, Kouri said, is now twice what it once was.
This increase, Kouri and Ruckriegel agreed, disproportionately impacts the “mom and pop” businesses in the Peoria community.
“It's been a struggle,” Ruckriegel said. “We've seen restaurants close recently, and for the operators that may not have the buying power of some of the larger groups, it becomes a really difficult situation.”
Many of the larger chain restaurants, Kouri said, have a much stronger ability to negotiate the cost of food. Because of costs, Ruckriegel said, smaller establishments are forced to be “more nimble” when attempting to balance the cost of supplies and profit.
Non-food expenses have also increased. Ruckriegel said repair and utility prices have gone up, and Kouri said businesses are also seeing an increase in the cost of transportation for goods.
“So, you can see all the cost starts to double and multiply,” Kouri said. “And then, in the state of Illinois, our governor felt that we needed minimum wage increases over five years' span. So now that’s increasing our cost on top of the inflation. It's increase after increase after increase.”
For Kouri, the city of Peoria is not making it easy for businesses to operate either. He said he sees higher tax rates and costs when it comes to operating in Peoria than he does in Germantown and Pekin, where his other restaurants are located.
Ruckriegel said open dialogue and conversations with the business community are important for the city. In the end, he said it is the city’s goal to ensure the restaurant industry weathers the current challenges.
With the tax rate, however, Kouri said he feels like “we are working for the city of Peoria right now.”
“They keep hitting us with more and more fees because they’ve got less and less people paying,” Kouri said. “So, it's a snowball effect. We’re hamstrung. You know, what do you do? Our roots are here in Peoria. Peoria is a great community, but quite honestly it is getting harder to be able to afford Peoria.”

Biden visiting 2 swing states as midterm crunch time begins
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is making his third trip to Pennsylvania in less than a week and returning just two days after his predecessor, Donald Trump, staged his own rally there — illustrating the battleground state’s importance to both parties as Labor Day kicks off a nine-week sprint to crucial midterm elections.
Trump spoke Saturday night in Wilkes-Barre, near Scranton, where Biden was born. The president made his own Wilkes-Barre trip last week to discuss increasing funding for police, decry GOP criticism of the FBI after the raid on Trump’s Florida estate and to argue that new, bipartisan gun safety measures can help reduce violent crime.
Two days after that, Biden went to Independence Hall in Philadelphia for a prime-time address denouncing the “extremism” of Trump’s fiercest supporters. On Monday, he’s attending Labor Day festivities in Milwaukee, in another key swing state, Wisconsin, before traveling to Pittsburgh for that city’s parade.
The White House says Biden will celebrate “the dignity of American workers.” The unofficial start of fall, Labor Day also traditionally kicks off political crunch time, with campaigns scrambling to excite voters ahead of Election Day on Nov. 8. That’s when control of the House and Senate, as well some of the country’s top governorships, will be decided.
Trump has endorsed candidates in key races around the country, and Biden is warning that some Republicans now believe so strongly in Trumpism that they are willing to undermine core American values to promote it. The president said Thursday that the midterms will be a battle “for the soul of the nation,” the same slogan he used to win the 2020 election, and that “blind loyalty to a single leader, and a willingness to engage in political violence, is fatal to democracy.”
Biden added in that speech that “MAGA Republicans are destroying American democracy,” referring to Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign cry and pointing to incidents like last year’s mob attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Trump said during his Saturday rally that Biden’s Philadelphia appearance featured “the most vicious, hateful and divisive speech ever delivered by an American president.”
“He’s an enemy of the state,” the former president said.
Monday will see Biden return to another theme that was a centerpiece of his 2020 campaign, that labor unions burnished the middle class, which in turn built and strengthened modern American society.
Endorsements from key unions helped Biden overcome disastrous early finishes in Iowa and New Hampshire to win the Democratic primary and eventually the White House. He has since continued to praise labor unions — even though many voters without college degrees, many working class, remain among Trump’s strongest bloc of supporters.
Mary Kay Henry, president of the 2-million-member Service Employees International Union, called Biden championing unions heading into the midterms “critical” and said that the labor movement must “mobilize in battlegrounds across the country to ensure that working people turn out.”
“We’re really excited about the president speaking directly to workers about, if he had the opportunity, he’d join a union,” Henry said. She added: “This president has signaled which side he’s on. And he’s on the side of working people. And that matters hugely.”
Biden, meanwhile, has personal history with Pittsburgh’s Labor Day parade, which is among the nation’s largest. He attended the 2015 installment as vice president and returned in 2018. Both times, Biden, now 79, faced questions about whether he’d run for president in upcoming elections — which he opted against in 2016 before winning the White House in 2020.
This year, the oldest president in the nation’s history has faced speculation about if he’ll seek a second term in 2024 — though he’s insisted that’s his intention, and the pressure has dissipated some in recent weeks, amid a string of policy and political successes for Biden and his party.
Still, both perennial presidential battleground states Biden is visiting on Monday may provide key measures of Democrats’ strength before this November and 2024. With inflation still raging and the president’s approval ratings remaining low, how much Biden can help his party in top races remains to be seen.
In Wisconsin, Democratic Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes is trying to unseat incumbent Republican Sen. Ron Johnson, but drew criticism from Johnson’s campaign for being noncommittal beforehand about appearing with Biden in Milwaukee. In the state’s other top race, Tim Michels, a construction executive endorsed by Trump, is attempting to deny Democratic Gov. Tony Evers a second term. Evers said he planned to join Biden on Monday.
Pennsylvania voters are choosing a new governor, with state Attorney General John Shapiro facing another Trump-endorsed Republican, Doug Mastriano, and a new senator. That race is between Democratic Lt. Gov. John Fetterman and Trump-backed celebrity heart physician Mehmet Oz. Shapiro and Fetterman both planned to attend Monday’s Pittsburgh parade.
The Pennsylvania and Wisconsin races could decide which party controls the Senate next year, while the winner of each governorship may influence results in 2024′s presidential election. The stakes are particularly high given that some Trump-aligned candidates have spread lies about widespread fraud that did not occur during the 2020 election — raising questions about what might happen if a candidate they don’t support wins the next presidential contest.

On ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’, Jairam Ramesh says no teleprompter, dramatics involved
Bharat Jodo yatra that is set to begin on September 7 from Kashmir will see participation of a large number of Congress workers, including MP Rahul Gandhi.
Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Monday said his party’s mega “Bharat Jodo Yatra” campiagn is not abut long speeches, dramatics and teleprompter and its objective is to ensure that the concerns and demands of citizens are heard.
According to a PTI report, Ramesh, who now heads the Congress’ communications team, said, “Bharat Jodo (Yatra) is not about long speeches, preaching, dramatics, teleprompter, we are going to listen. Its objective is to ensure that the concerns and demands expressed by the people reach Delhi.”
The yatra that is set to begin on September 7 from Kashmir will see participation of a large number of Congress workers, including MP Rahul Gandhi. The grand old party has described the yatra as the largest mass contact campaign ever undertaken in independent India.

The yatra anthem was launched at the AICC headquarters at a press conference addressed by Ramesh who said its lyrics -- 'Ek tera kadam, ek mera kadam, mil jaye, jud jaye apna watan' -- signify the objective of the yatra.
Earlier during a press briefing, he also hit out at the saffron camp and former Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad for saying the party should first undertake a "Congress Jodo" campaign before the "Bharat Jodo Yatra".
"There is no need for 'Congress Jodo' because the party is unified. "We are a democratic party. We don't silence voices. Those who are not satisfied issue statements. Some people write letters, some people tweet. This is a democratic system," Ramesh said.
"We try to take all people together. We try to reach out to all people. But still, some leave after abusing us. I do not want to comment on them," the Rajya Sabha MP said without mentioning Azad, who in his five-page resignation letter called Rahul Gandhi a "non-serious" politician.
"I feel every Congress leader is involved in the Bharat Jodo Yatra. And that is our only aim now. Because the Congress is united. The Congress is a huge family. People are of different views. And it is a democratic party. People do their 'Mann ki Baat openly," he added. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/on-bharat-jodo-yatra-jairam-ramesh-says-no-teleprompter-dramatics-involved-101662369074988-amp.html | 2022-09-05T10:49:53Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/on-bharat-jodo-yatra-jairam-ramesh-says-no-teleprompter-dramatics-involved-101662369074988-amp.html | true |

Eleven Israeli athletes and one policeman died in the 1972 Munich Olympics attack. Germany has still not completely come to terms with the events.
Hans Völkl still feels a bit queasy when he hears the sound of rotors. It makes him remember the roar of the two Bell-UH 1 helicopters, a sound that has been with him ever since the night of September 6, 1972.
At that time, Völkl was a young Bundeswehr soldier stationed at an air base just outside Munich, Bavaria. He worked the night shift in the tower and was supposed to help pilots land here. The 21-year-old had been glued to the TV news watching a drama unfold at the Olympic village, just 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) away in Munich.
That morning, Palestinian terrorists had broken into the Israeli Olympic team's quarters, where they shot and killed weightlifter Josef Romano and wrestling coach Mosche Weinberg and took nine other Israelis as hostages.
In the evening, the eight terrorists boarded two helicopters along with their nine hostages, their demand for several comrades to be released from prisons in Israel and Germany was not successful. After hours of negotiations, German Interior Minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher promised the terrorists safe conduct to the Egyptian capital, Cairo. He assured them that helicopters would take them to Riem Airport, where a passenger plane was waiting.
Instead, however, the pilots from the Federal Border Guard flew them to the Bundeswehr air base in Fürstenfeldbruck. There, Völkl recalls in an interview with DW, he watched the helicopters emerge in low flight at around 10:30 p.m. and land right in front of the window of his ground-floor office.
The police task force's plan was for snipers to swiftly kill the terrorists and free the hostages. But the plan went terribly wrong. The hostage-takers returned fire with their Kalashnikovs, while the German forces were poorly coordinated. Hostage rescue had never been part of police training before and the officers had no radio contact with each other so that some even came under fire from their colleagues.
Völkl and his fellow soldiers had not even been informed that the terrorists and their hostages were coming to Fürstenfeldbruck. "We got into it simply because we were there at the time," he recalled. "We had just come off our night shift. Nobody had told us anything beforehand."
Völkl took cover in a corner of the room by the radiator as bullets whistled through the air. Just a few feet from his office, a ricochet hit and killed a police officer. "There, that is where Anton Fliegerbauer was hit," he says. "He was lying there. The walls were full of bone splinters. He'd been shot in the head."
Andre Spitzer was a fencing coach on the Israeli Olympic team and died as a hostage in the failed rescue operation
Bursts of fire echoed across the airfield until midnight. Then there was a massive explosion. A terrorist had thrown a grenade into one of the helicopters — where the hostages were still tied up. As the morning dawned over Fürstenfeldbruck, it emerged that, in addition to police officer Fliegerbauer, five of the terrorists had been shot and killed, while none of the Israeli hostages survived.
The Olympic Games in Munich were meant to show Germany's friendly face to the world. It was supposed to be a "celebration of peace," 36 years after the Olympic Games in Nazi-ruled Berlin, and only 27 years after the end of World War Two and the Holocaust, during which Germany murdered six million Jews.
But now Jews had again been killed on German soil — and the German state had failed to protect them.
Interior Minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher (3rd from left) and other officials negotiated with the terrorists.
After a pause of only one day and a funeral service, the competitions in Munich continued. There was no apology from politicians or the police for the Fürstenfeldbruck fiasco. No committee of inquiry was set up, no one took responsibility for the failed rescue operation, or for why the offers of help from Israeli specialists had been turned down.
The victims' relatives, on the other hand, had to fight for decades to gain any insight at all into the relevant files, and for more adequate compensation.
Only last week, Germany reached a compensation agreement with the bereaved families. The deal includes the creation of a German-Israeli research commission that will re-examine the events that claimed 11 Israeli lives, as well as compensation paid by the German government, the state of Bavaria and the city of Munich.
The deal made it possible for commemoration events this week to take place in the presence of relatives of the victims, who had initially declined to attend in protest at Germany's handling of the massacre and its aftermath.
Bur for decades the witnesses, victims, and their families "were treated almost like annoying poor relatives," says Ludwig Spaenle, Bavaria's antisemitism commissioner, who is committed to reinvestigating the events of 1972. West Germany failed in the face of terrorism, he argued.
"What happened afterward was a dramatic state failure," Spaenle told DW. "People wanted to forget things very quickly and made every effort to do so. They kept quiet about the events. And there was no public remembrance." Only in the last ten years or so have efforts been made to remember and confront the events — for example, by setting up a memorial in Munich's Olympic Park.
Hans Völkl also said he was returned to his usual duties as quickly as possible. In Fürstenfeldbruck, flight operations restarted while the wreckage of the helicopters was still on the airfield in front of the tower, Völkl recalls. There was no psychological counseling, doctors at the time liked to recommend drinking a glass of cognac to cope with the shock, he recalled.
"People tried to repress traumatic experiences," says Anna Ulrike Bergheim, the chairwoman of the Fürstenfeldbruck Historical Society. She spent years searching for eyewitnesses and found people like Völkl. When she walks through the corridors of the air base today, she knows exactly who was where on the night of September 6, 1972.
At the Israeli team's quarters in the Olympic Village, a plaque commemorates those who were murdered.
"The events certainly haven't been processed by the people who were there then," Bergheim tells DW. "Many eyewitnesses are only now coming forward because they only now have reached the point where they can talk about it."
It wasn't just the victims' relatives who were ignored for a long time, Bergheim says. "In 50 years, there has never been any effort from the official side to ask those who were there that night, the police officers, members of the air force, firefighters who were shot at while they were extinguishing fires: 'How are you doing? How are you coping with this memory?'"
Today, Völkl speaks publicly about the night of September 6, 1972: How he saw the bodies of André Spitzer and Yossef Gutfreund in the helicopters, still bound to their seats. He has not sought to contact the relatives of the victims, for fear of imposing himself. If someone approaches him, though — that would be a different matter. Even 50 years after the Munich massacre, he feels there is probably a lot that still needs to be said.

Biden visiting 2 swing states as midterm crunch time begins
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is making his third trip to Pennsylvania in less than a week and returning just two days after his predecessor, Donald Trump, staged his own rally there — illustrating the battleground state’s importance to both parties as Labor Day kicks off a nine-week sprint to crucial midterm elections.
Trump spoke Saturday night in Wilkes-Barre, near Scranton, where Biden was born. The president made his own Wilkes-Barre trip last week to discuss increasing funding for police, decry GOP criticism of the FBI after the raid on Trump’s Florida estate and to argue that new, bipartisan gun safety measures can help reduce violent crime.
Two days after that, Biden went to Independence Hall in Philadelphia for a prime-time address denouncing the “extremism” of Trump’s fiercest supporters. On Monday, he’s attending Labor Day festivities in Milwaukee, in another key swing state, Wisconsin, before traveling to Pittsburgh for that city’s parade.
The White House says Biden will celebrate “the dignity of American workers.” The unofficial start of fall, Labor Day also traditionally kicks off political crunch time, with campaigns scrambling to excite voters ahead of Election Day on Nov. 8. That’s when control of the House and Senate, as well some of the country’s top governorships, will be decided.
Trump has endorsed candidates in key races around the country, and Biden is warning that some Republicans now believe so strongly in Trumpism that they are willing to undermine core American values to promote it. The president said Thursday that the midterms will be a battle “for the soul of the nation,” the same slogan he used to win the 2020 election, and that “blind loyalty to a single leader, and a willingness to engage in political violence, is fatal to democracy.”
Biden added in that speech that “MAGA Republicans are destroying American democracy,” referring to Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign cry and pointing to incidents like last year’s mob attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Trump said during his Saturday rally that Biden’s Philadelphia appearance featured “the most vicious, hateful and divisive speech ever delivered by an American president.”
“He’s an enemy of the state,” the former president said.
Monday will see Biden return to another theme that was a centerpiece of his 2020 campaign, that labor unions burnished the middle class, which in turn built and strengthened modern American society.
Endorsements from key unions helped Biden overcome disastrous early finishes in Iowa and New Hampshire to win the Democratic primary and eventually the White House. He has since continued to praise labor unions — even though many voters without college degrees, many working class, remain among Trump’s strongest bloc of supporters.

Still, both perennial presidential battleground states Biden is visiting on Monday may provide key measures of Democrats’ strength before this November and 2024.

Pennsylvania voters are choosing a new governor, with state Attorney General John Shapiro facing another Trump-endorsed Republican, Doug Mastriano, and a new senator. That race is between Democratic Lt. Gov. John Fetterman and Trump-backed celebrity heart physician Mehmet Oz. Shapiro and Fetterman both planned to attend Monday’s Pittsburgh parade.
The Pennsylvania and Wisconsin races could decide which party controls the Senate next year, while the winner of each governorship may influence results in 2024′s presidential election. The stakes are particularly high given that some Trump-aligned candidates have spread lies about widespread fraud that did not occur during the 2020 election — raising questions about what might happen if a candidate they don’t support wins the next presidential contest.

Google is famous for its cafeterias, which serve its legions of programmers and product managers everything from vegan poke to gourmet tacos — free.
Unite Here, a 300,000-member union hotel and food service workers, has been steadily working to unionize Silicon Valley cafeteria workers since 2018, experiencing the most success at Google. Employed by the contract companies Compass and Guckenheimer, those unionized now make up about 90 percent of total food services workers at Google, according to the union. Workers have unionized at 23 Google offices nationwide, including in Seattle and San Jose.
Now, the union is tackling new territory: the South. On Wednesday, Google workers in Atlanta employed by a different cafeteria company — Sodexo — presented their manager with a list of demands and said they plan to unionize.
Unionizing workers outside of major coastal cities and in the South may be a tougher sell, where union membership is the lowest in the United States and labor laws are generally weaker. Around 6 percent of workers in Georgia are unionized, compared with 18 percent in California and 24 percent in New York, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Although inflation and housing prices have pushed up the cost of living nationwide, prices are still generally lower in the South than in large coastal cities.
On Friday, Sodexo and the union reached an agreement: Should a majority of workers choose to unionize, Sodexo would not try to block it.
“We are hopeful that we can quickly reach an agreement on a union contract that will bring these workers up to the same good standard enjoyed by union food workers at other Google cafeterias nationwide,” said D. Taylor, the president of Unite Here.
Sodexo has many unionized workplaces across the country, said Jane Dollinger, a spokeswoman for the company. “We believe there is a path forward through negotiations to address the differences in wages and benefits.”
“We have many contracts with both unionized and nonunion suppliers, and respect their employees’ right to choose whether or not to join a union. The decision of these contractors to join Unite Here is a matter between the workers and their employers,” Google spokeswoman Courtenay Mencini said.
“Our company has a heritage of fairness, equality, and inclusion. We recognize protected labor rights and maintain a neutral position with respect to union participation,” said Guckenheimer spokesman Peter Mikol. “We honor and respect the decision that many employees made to be represented by the union, and look forward to continuing to work productively together,” said Lisa Claybon, a spokeswoman for Compass.
The average unionized worker at a Google cafeteria makes $24 an hour, pays little to nothing for health insurance and has access to a pension plan. At Sodexo-run Google cafeterias, workers make $15 an hour and pay premiums in the hundreds of dollars, Taylor said.
“It’s a cool place to work at. The downside of that is the wages we’re getting, the amount of work they are requesting,” said Aaron Henderson, a 40-year-old cafeteria worker at Google’s Atlanta office who performs a variety of tasks including cleaning the kitchen, making fresh pizza dough and prepping the salad bar. He supports a family of three, including a daughter who is about to head to college.
“I love the job,” he said. “We all get along. It’s too bad that we’re just underpaid and overworked.”
Housing prices in Atlanta have risen around 18 percent in the past year, according to the real estate platform Zillow, although prices in the city remain lower than in New York or the San Francisco Bay area.
Tens of thousands of the workers who make their living at Google are employed by contract companies. They’re known internally as “TVCs” — temporary, vendor or contractors, and their ranks encompass all sorts of jobs, including cafeteria workers, content moderators, designers, programmers and security guards. Similar dynamics play out at other tech companies, including Facebook and Twitter.
Tech companies have brought enormous wealth to the cities in which they’re based, especially the San Francisco Bay area. Housing prices have shot up over the past decade, pushing many people out and causing security guards, cafeteria workers and shuttle bus drivers to make long commutes to work in jobs that serve tech workers.
“We wanted to focus in on the tech companies because they clearly have been very beneficial to certain workers,” Taylor said. “We didn’t think that should be confined to white collar workers.”
Other groups also have worked on that goal. The Alphabet Workers Union, a group of full-time Google employees and TVCs, officially formed in 2021 to try to make wages and benefits more equal between the two groups. The AWU is not an official union that has gone through the government certification process.
Silicon Valley Rising, a group of union and worker advocacy organizations, also campaigns for better wages and cheaper housing in the San Francisco Bay area.
A tight labor market combined with soaring inflation and pandemic-related safety concerns among front line workers triggered a surge in filings this year to hold workplace union elections. Tens of thousands more workers voted to join unions in the first half of this year than in the first six months of 2021, according to an analysis by Bloomberg Law. Workers also have voted to unionize for the first time at Chipotle, Trader Joe’s and the recreation equipment maker REI — citing concerns related to safety and low wages.
More than 230 Starbucks locations have voted to unionize since last year, triggering tough opposition from the company, which recently was accused by the National Labor Relations Board of illegally withholding raises and benefits from union workers. And this year, the first Amazon warehouse and Apple Store voted to unionize.
Richard Ramirez, 33, who works at a Google office in Seattle receiving food shipments and making sure they’re stored safely, says he was skeptical when union representatives began approaching his colleagues.
“We had it relatively good,” Ramirez said. The $20 he made at Google was better than the $11 he made in a previous job that left him without enough money even to afford rent. Still, he was commuting over three hours a day because of the high cost of living in Seattle. He decided to support the union.
Now, he is paid $27 an hour, and the free health-care plan means he doesn’t think twice about getting the best care for his family, Ramirez said. The money has made a real difference for him.
“Since we unionized, I have bought a home and that was basically only possible because we unionized,” he said. | https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/09/05/google-union-pandemic/ | 2022-09-05T11:14:18Z | https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/09/05/google-union-pandemic/ | true |
Biden visiting 2 swing states as midterm crunch time begins
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is making his third trip to Pennsylvania in less than a week and returning just two days after his predecessor, Donald Trump, staged his own rally there — illustrating the battleground state’s importance to both parties as Labor Day kicks off a nine-week sprint to crucial midterm elections.
Trump spoke Saturday night in Wilkes-Barre, near Scranton, where Biden was born. The president made his own Wilkes-Barre trip last week to discuss increasing funding for police, decry GOP criticism of the FBI after the raid on Trump’s Florida estate and to argue that new, bipartisan gun safety measures can help reduce violent crime.
Two days after that, Biden went to Independence Hall in Philadelphia for a prime-time address denouncing the “extremism” of Trump’s fiercest supporters. On Monday, he’s attending Labor Day festivities in Milwaukee, in another key swing state, Wisconsin, before traveling to Pittsburgh for that city’s parade.
The White House says Biden will celebrate “the dignity of American workers.” The unofficial start of fall, Labor Day also traditionally kicks off political crunch time, with campaigns scrambling to excite voters ahead of Election Day on Nov. 8. That’s when control of the House and Senate, as well some of the country’s top governorships, will be decided.
Trump has endorsed candidates in key races around the country, and Biden is warning that some Republicans now believe so strongly in Trumpism that they are willing to undermine core American values to promote it. The president said Thursday that the midterms will be a battle “for the soul of the nation,” the same slogan he used to win the 2020 election, and that “blind loyalty to a single leader, and a willingness to engage in political violence, is fatal to democracy.”
Biden added in that speech that “MAGA Republicans are destroying American democracy,” referring to Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign cry and pointing to incidents like last year’s mob attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Trump said during his Saturday rally that Biden’s Philadelphia appearance featured “the most vicious, hateful and divisive speech ever delivered by an American president.”
“He’s an enemy of the state,” the former president said.
Monday will see Biden return to another theme that was a centerpiece of his 2020 campaign, that labor unions burnished the middle class, which in turn built and strengthened modern American society.
Endorsements from key unions helped Biden overcome disastrous early finishes in Iowa and New Hampshire to win the Democratic primary and eventually the White House. He has since continued to praise labor unions — even though many voters without college degrees, many working class, remain among Trump’s strongest bloc of supporters.
Mary Kay Henry, president of the 2-million-member Service Employees International Union, called Biden championing unions heading into the midterms “critical” and said that the labor movement must “mobilize in battlegrounds across the country to ensure that working people turn out.”
“We’re really excited about the president speaking directly to workers about, if he had the opportunity, he’d join a union,” Henry said. She added: “This president has signaled which side he’s on. And he’s on the side of working people. And that matters hugely.”
Biden, meanwhile, has personal history with Pittsburgh’s Labor Day parade, which is among the nation’s largest. He attended the 2015 installment as vice president and returned in 2018. Both times, Biden, now 79, faced questions about whether he’d run for president in upcoming elections — which he opted against in 2016 before winning the White House in 2020.
This year, the oldest president in the nation’s history has faced speculation about if he’ll seek a second term in 2024 — though he’s insisted that’s his intention, and the pressure has dissipated some in recent weeks, amid a string of policy and political successes for Biden and his party.
Still, both perennial presidential battleground states Biden is visiting on Monday may provide key measures of Democrats’ strength before this November and 2024. With inflation still raging and the president’s approval ratings remaining low, how much Biden can help his party in top races remains to be seen.
In Wisconsin, Democratic Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes is trying to unseat incumbent Republican Sen. Ron Johnson, but drew criticism from Johnson’s campaign for being noncommittal beforehand about appearing with Biden in Milwaukee. In the state’s other top race, Tim Michels, a construction executive endorsed by Trump, is attempting to deny Democratic Gov. Tony Evers a second term. Evers said he planned to join Biden on Monday.
Pennsylvania voters are choosing a new governor, with state Attorney General John Shapiro facing another Trump-endorsed Republican, Doug Mastriano, and a new senator. That race is between Democratic Lt. Gov. John Fetterman and Trump-backed celebrity heart physician Mehmet Oz. Shapiro and Fetterman both planned to attend Monday’s Pittsburgh parade.
The Pennsylvania and Wisconsin races could decide which party controls the Senate next year, while the winner of each governorship may influence results in 2024′s presidential election. The stakes are particularly high given that some Trump-aligned candidates have spread lies about widespread fraud that did not occur during the 2020 election — raising questions about what might happen if a candidate they don’t support wins the next presidential contest.

LANGLEY, Wash. — One person was killed and nine people remained missing, including a child, after a floatplane crashed Sunday afternoon in Puget Sound in Washington state, the U.S. Coast Guard said.
Four Coast Guard vessels, a rescue helicopter and an aircraft were involved in the extensive search, along with nearby rescue and law enforcement agencies. Two vessels were to continue searching during the night and air patrols would resume at first light, the Coast Guard said late Sunday.
The crash was reported at 3:11 p.m. The Coast Guard said one body had been recovered and nine people were still missing. The cause of the crash is unknown, authorities said.
The plane went down in Mutiny Bay off Whidbey Island, roughly 30 miles (50 kilometers) northwest of downtown Seattle and about halfway between Friday Harbor and Renton.
The National Transportation Safety Board said the plane was a de Havilland DHC-3 Otter, a single-engine propeller plane.
Floatplanes, which have pontoons allowing them to land on water, are a common sight around Puget Sound, an inlet of the Pacific Ocean. There are multiple, daily flights between the Seattle area and the San Juan Islands, a scenic archipelago northwest of Seattle that draws tourists from around the world.
These aircraft, which also fly between Seattle and Vancouver, British Columbia, frequently travel over Seattle and land in Lake Washington, not far from the city’s iconic Space Needle.
Renton, where authorities say the flight was headed Sunday, is at the southern tip of Lake Washington, about 10 miles (16 kilometers) southeast of Seattle.
In 2019, a midair crash in Alaska between two sightseeing planes killed six people. The Ketchikan-based floatplanes were carrying passengers from the same cruise ship, the Royal Princess, and were returning from tours of Misty Fjords National Monument. | https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/1-dead-9-missing-after-floatplane-crashes-in-puget-sound/2022/09/05/2083f1d8-2d07-11ed-bcc6-0874b26ae296_story.html | 2022-09-05T11:28:17Z | https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/1-dead-9-missing-after-floatplane-crashes-in-puget-sound/2022/09/05/2083f1d8-2d07-11ed-bcc6-0874b26ae296_story.html | false |
Do you ever feel like your mailbox is filled with ads and letters you didn't sign up for?
While most mailers are innocent ads or coupons, some take it a little too far, making it appear what they have to say is urgent.
The Better Business Bureau is now warning about one of the thousands of homeowners have been receiving.
Sheila Kippley is among them. She opened her mailbox the other day to find a strange letter inside from a home warranty company.
"It said that it was extremely urgent and time sensitive," she said.
The letter urged her and her husband John to give it their immediate attention.
"It indicated that we already had this homeowner's policy and that it was about to expire."
But the Kippleys had no recollection of ever being customers.
"I didn't know that I had a home warranty," he said.
Better Business Bureau flooded with questions and complaints
Homeowners all over the country -- from 28 states so far -- have complained to the Better Business Bureau about mailers like this, most coming from a company called US Home Guard.
Renato Brasil received a US Home Guard letter and said he could see his father panicking and sending money.
"This is predatory," he told us. "My father could fall for this. He could send a check, even though he doesn't know who they are."
The BBB has now issued a warning about the letters, with the BBB's Sarah Wetzel telling us that while it is a legitimate business, many homeowners feel misled.
The BBB says to be wary of phrases like "final notice," "urgent, or "must respond."
"There is definitely this sense of urgency that consumers feel like they needed to respond immediately," Wetzel said.
But the truth is, there's no need to act or respond.
We called and left a message with US Home Guard but have not received a response.
So how do you stop these mailings or prevent them from going to an older relative?
- One option is an opt-out service called DMA Choice.org.
- Or you can reach out to the company directly and demand they stop.
- Or do what the Kippleys plan to do: ignore it.
"It is just entirely inappropriate as far as I'm concerned," John Kippley said
A home warranty can be a smart idea in some cases. It's nice to know that if a major appliance fails, you will not be hit with a $5,000 repair bill.
But the Better Business Bureau says responding to some urgent letter in the mail is not the best way to do it, so you don't waste your money.

A cost-of-living crisis, record of Channel migrant crossings, a Brexit impasse and war in Ukraine: Liz Truss faces a bulging No10 in-tray AND needs to finds a way to heal the fractured Tory Party after divisive leadership campaign
- The new prime minister will have no time for a political honeymoon, getting her feet under the desk and choosing new wallpaper for the No10 flat
- Instead she will be engulfed by a tornado of economic terror, the running sore of Brexit and war in Europe
- Her in-tray is already bulging with crises present and future, which need mitigating or avoiding
Liz Truss is expected to win the keys to Downing Street today - keys that also open a Pandora's Box of challenges for the new prime minister.
The new prime minister will have no time for a political honeymoon, getting her feet under the desk and choosing new wallpaper for the No10 flat.
Instead she will be engulfed by a tornado of economic terror, the running sore of Brexit and war in Europe.
Her in-tray is already bulging with crises present and future, which need mitigating or avoiding.
And alongside these national issues, she will have the equally hard task of knitting the Conservative Party back together after a leadership race that saw bitter blue-on-blue infighting in public.
Ms Truss won the backing of just a thirds of Tory MPs before the party membership over-ruled their support for Rishi Sunak to replace Boris Johnson.
While some ambitious MPs have public shifted to support her she will need to move fast to heal the wounds ahead of an election just two years away.
Here we look at the main issued she will have to deal with when she enters No10.
The cost of living crisis
The new prime minister will have no time for a political honeymoon, getting her feet under the desk and choosing new wallpaper for the No10 flat.
Energy bills are set to soar again in October, with fears many families will be unable to pay
Ms Truss is mulling a £100billion package to freeze energy bills as she braces to be named the UK's next PM.
She has has vowed 'immediate' action to ease the pressure on struggling families - having earlier ruled out 'handouts' for families during the leadership campaign.
Millions say that with bills set to rise by 80 percent from October - and even higher from January - they face a painful choice between eating and heating this winter, according to surveys.
Speculation is mounting that she will opt for a bold furlough-style move - possibly by loaning companies money to hold down costs.
The plan emerged as wholesale gas prices soared again this morning, by around 30 per cent, following Russia's decision to shut down a key gas pipeline.
Chancellor-in-waiting Kwasi Kwarteng has already been scrambling to reassure markets that although government borrowing will be 'looser' it will remain 'responsible'. Ms Truss has also promised a wave of tax cuts aimed at boosting economic growth.
Ms Truss told the BBC yesterday that she will reveal fresh supports for struggling households within a week, but refused to spell out details.
'Before you have been elected as prime minister, you don't have all the wherewithal to get the things done,' she told the Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg programme.
'This is why it will take a week to sort out the precise plans and make sure we are able to announce them. That is why I cannot go into details at this stage. It would be wrong.'
British energy producers witnessed another huge rise in wholesale prices today, with gas prices surging by 20 to 30 per cent this morning.
The increase comes after a last-minute decision by Russia's state-backed energy firm Gazprom to block the reopening of the key Nord Stream 1 pipeline to Europe.
While the UK receives only 4 per cent of its gas from Nord Stream 1, other countries such as Germany are much more reliant on the pipeline, meaning its closure is causing prices to spike on international energy markets.
The move has raised fears factories could be forced to adopt a four-day working week to conserve energy. No date has yet been set for when Nord Stream 1 will be reopened.
Britain is teetering on the brink of recession after the private sector contracted in August.
The closely-watched S&P Global/CIPS UK services PMI survey suggested the all-important services sector only just eked out growth last month, with a worse-than-expected reading of 50.9, down from 52.6 in July and the slowest pace of expansion for a year-and-a-half.
This left the composite reading for private sector activity - taking into account manufacturing and services survey data - at 49.6 in August, down from 52.1 in July and the first drop below the crucial 50 no-change mark in 18 months. A reading below 50 shows contraction.
Channel Migrants
Some 915 were detected on Saturday in 19 small boats, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) said, taking the provisional total for the year to 25,146
Border Force and the military escort migrant ashore at Dover Docks after they crossed the English Channel in Dover, Britain, 27 August
Liz Truss has vowed to make the issue of Channel migrants and immigration a 'top priority' if she becomes Prime Minister.
She aims to ensure the Rwanda policy to deport migrants will get off the ground after being so far thwarted by lawyers.
Her pledge came as hundreds of migrants crossed from France in small boats at the weekend, with this year's surge in arrivals showed no sign of abating.
At the end of August government figures showed more than 25,000 migrants have crossed the Channel to the UK so far this year. It means 2022 is on course to be a record year for crossings in small boats.
It is more than four months since Home Secretary Priti Patel unveiled plans to send migrants to Rwanda to try to deter people from crossing the Channel.
Since then 19,878 have arrived in the UK after making the journey.
A source said: 'Liz knows we need to break the cycle of appalling gangs and stop people making the dangerous journey across the Channel.
'She's determined to see the Rwanda policy through to full implementation as well as exploring other countries where we can work on similar partnerships.
'This will be a top priority if she becomes Prime Minister.'
One of those who will play a key role in a Truss government is Suella Braverman, who is expected to be promoted from Attorney-General to Home Secretary.
The former leadership hopeful is understood to have discussed her plans for the brief with Ms Truss over the course of several months, including the controversial Rwanda deportation scheme.
Allies have said that the legal nous of Ms Braverman, who was knocked out of the leadership contest in July, makes her well placed to tackle left-wing lawyers attempting to frustrate the scheme to deport migrants to the African country.
A source said: 'She needs to absolutely make sure we deliver on Rwanda. It means addressing the ways in which it has been frustrated, which are principally through legal devices using the Human Rights Act.'
Last month, Ms Braverman told a think tank that the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg was undermining policy set out by democratically-elected governments in relation to illegal immigration.
War in Ukraine
Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine has stalled thanks to the grit of the country's armed forces and Western intervention.
Ms Truss is expected to continue the UK's hawkish backing for Kyiv, which has received supplies of arms and training from the UK.
Boris Johnson could have a final phone call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, with whom he has struck up a close bromance.
At the weekend, the First Lady of Ukraine pleaded to Brits suffering under soaring energy bills to remember that Ukraine is still counting casualties.
In a powerful interview with the BBC, Olena Zelenska has reminded the world that while the rest of Europe has been suffering under the energy crisis, Ukraine has been at the forefront of Russian attacks.
This comes as Russian energy giant Gazprom indefinitely cuts off all Nord Stream supplies to Europe following three day maintenance.
She said: 'The prices are going up in Ukraine as well. But in addition our people get killed.
'So when you start counting pennies on your bank account or in your pocket, we do the same and count our casualties.
In an interview with the BBC, Olena Zelenska (pictured) has reminded the world that while the rest of Europe has been suffering under the energy crisis, Ukraine has been at the forefront of Russian attacks
'I understand the situation is very tough. But let me recall that at the time of the Covid-19 epidemic, and it's still with us, when there were price hikes, Ukraine was affected as well.
Speaking on Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg, Mrs Zelenska also said that if support for Ukraine was strong the energy crisis would be shorter.
During his final visit to Kyiv as prime minister last month, Boris Johnson said: 'If we're paying in our energy bills for the evils of Vladimir Putin, the people of Ukraine are paying in their blood.'
Writing for the Mail on Sunday, Mr Zelensky paid tribute to UK solidarity with Ukraine following the Russian invasion. He also promised to forge 'close relations' with the new prime minister.
The Ukrainian president used the article to thank Foreign Secretary Liz Truss and Defence Secretary Ben Wallace, calling them 'great leaders and friends of Ukraine'.
Mr Zelensky wrote: 'At each and every meeting and conversation between us, Boris had one very good question: What else? What else do you need?

HELSINKI (AP) — Four passengers aboard a private jet traveling from Spain to Germany were feared dead after the plane crashed into the Baltic Sea off Latvia’s coast on Sunday, according to Swedish and German media reports.
The Cessna Citation 551 jet, which had taken off from the Spanish city of Jerez in the afternoon, disappeared from radar while flying over the Baltic Sea northwest of the Latvian port city of Ventspils, Swedish news agency TT reported.
The aircraft, registered in Austria, was en route to Cologne, Germany. German media said the passengers were a family of three — a man, a woman and their daughter — in addition to the pilot.
German newspaper Bild said that the plane had reported shortly after takeoff that there was a problem with pressurization in the cabin. But authorities lost radio contact with the aircraft soon after, and Spanish and French fighter jets were dispatched to intercept the plane.
But when they reached the plane, they saw nobody sitting in the cockpit, Bild said.
Latvian and Swedish rescue and coast guard vessels were patrolling the crash site and a nearby passenger ferry was alerted to help in the efforts. Debris from the plane and an oil spill have been found at the site, Swedish media reports said. | https://www.cbs42.com/news/international/ap-reports-4-feared-dead-in-private-jet-crash-in-baltic-sea/ | 2022-09-05T11:45:42Z | https://www.cbs42.com/news/international/ap-reports-4-feared-dead-in-private-jet-crash-in-baltic-sea/ | false |

He has partnered with online cooking course company Bone Apple Tea, and believes it's crucial in relationships for men to know their way around the kitchen.
'[If my future girlfriend can cook] it would be a bonus, but I would like to learn to cook myself so that way she doesn't have to do all the cooking,' Michael told Daily Mail Australia.
'Because, like they say, every woman likes a man that knows how to cook. And that's one less thing that I'll be embarrassed about,' the Wollongong-based Nelflix star added.

Bus fare cap: when do £2 fares in England start, who is eligible for DfT discount, how long will it last?
DfT announces three-month scheme to ease cost of living crisis and cut average fares by 30%
Bus fares in England will be capped at £2 at the start of next year in an effort to help commuters struggling with the cost of living.
Prices for adult passengers will be frozen at £2 between January and March 2023 under a £60 million scheme confirmed by Transport Secretary Grant Shapps.
The Department for Transport said the cap could save travellers more than £3 on some single tickets and represented a 30% reduction on the average fare.
Mr Shapps said: “Buses are by far and away the most used form of public transport, so ensuring that almost all bus journeys are no more than £2 will assist passengers over the winter months and provide direct help to thousands of households across the country.

“This £60 million boost will mean everyone can affordably get to work, education, the shops and doctor’s appointments.
"We know people will be feeling the pressure of rising costs this winter, and so we have been working hard this summer to provide practical concrete help that will lower daily expenditure."
The scheme will see the DfT work with bus operating companies and local authorities to implement the cap. The DfT said that bus operators representing 90% of routes had expressed support for the temporary price cap and it was hopeful that the limit could be applied to all virtually all bus journeys in England.
According to the DfT, the average single fare for a three-mile journey is £2.80, so the cap will represent a 30% saving. However, in some rural areas, a single journey can cost up to £6. The cap will not affect fares already set below £2.
Cutting traffic and pollution
Paul Tuohy, chief executive of the Campaign for Better Transport, said: “This will be very welcome news for the millions of people who rely on the bus to get to work, to the shops, to medical appointments, and to connect with friends and family. It will also encourage more people to find their nearest bus stop and give the bus a try.
"Buses have great potential to cut traffic and carbon emissions, to connect communities and ease loneliness. This £2 fare cap - which we have called for - will help set buses on the road to a bright future.”
Alison Edwards, policy director at the Confederation of Passenger Transport welcomed the “eye-catching initiative” but said it needed to have a long-lasting legacy. She commented: "We look forward to understanding in detail how the proposed fare cap will work in practice to ensure it supports the long-term sustainability of bus networks, which are vital in connecting communities with jobs, education and skills, as well as friends, family, and essential public services."
The England-wide price cap comes in the wake of local schemes also offering £2 fares, which have already come into effect.
From 4 September, bus passengers in Manchester and West Yorkshire will pay no more than £2 for a single journey, with transport operators in the Liverpool City Region introducing an identical cap from 18 September.
The Manchester scheme has been brought forward by 12 months and will see passengers save up to 50% on some tickets. When it was announced in August, Andy Burnham, Greater Manchester’s mayor, said: “The introduction of lower, simpler fares across our bus network signifies the biggest shake-up of our bus system in close to 40 years and comes at a critical time.
“Hundreds of thousands of households across Greater Manchester are deeply worried about money, with fears of even higher bills just around the corner.” | https://www.biggleswadetoday.co.uk/news/uk/bus-fare-cap-england-2023-when-does-the-dft-price-limit-come-into-force-and-how-long-will-it-last-3831050 | 2022-09-05T11:59:00Z | https://www.biggleswadetoday.co.uk/news/uk/bus-fare-cap-england-2023-when-does-the-dft-price-limit-come-into-force-and-how-long-will-it-last-3831050 | false |
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Iran has sentenced two women to death on charges of human trafficking, the country's official IRNA news agency reported on Monday, a penalty that sparked widespread condemnation online.
Authorities accused the women — identified as Zahra Sedighi and Elham Chobdar — of “corruption on earth," a term often used to describe attempts to undermine the Iranian government, saying they exploited young women. However, foreign-based rights groups described the two women as local gay and lesbian rights activists.
IRNA made no reference to the women's activism, reporting that they "misused" women and girls in promising better training and job opportunities abroad — a reference to human trafficking. A revolutionary court in the country's northwestern city of Urmia, some 600 kilometers (370 miles) northwest of Tehran, handed down the death sentences. The women have the right to appeal.
International rights watchdog Amnesty International identified Sedighi earlier this year as an “Iranian gender nonconforming human rights defender," describing her monthslong detention as stemming from her “sexual orientation and gender identity as well as her social media posts and statements in defense of LGBTI rights.”
Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, a Norwegian-registered watchdog that monitors rights violations in Iran's western Kurdistan province, reported that security forces similarly detained Chobdar over “promoting homosexuality.”
Under Iranian law, crimes such as murder, rape, drug trafficking and sodomy can lead to the death penalty.
Along with China, the Islamic Republic is considered among the world's most prolific executioners. The U.N.’s independent investigator on human rights in Iran warned last year that the country continues to execute prisoners “at an alarming rate.”
Homosexuality is illegal in Iran, considered one of the most repressive places in the world for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. Fear of persecution is so strong that some gays and lesbians have sought and received asylum in other countries. Earlier this year, Iran reportedly executed two gay men on charges of sodomy. | https://www.ctpost.com/news/article/Iran-sentences-2-women-to-death-for-human-17420029.php | 2022-09-05T11:59:23Z | https://www.ctpost.com/news/article/Iran-sentences-2-women-to-death-for-human-17420029.php | true |
Puget Sound plane crash search for survivors continues
Mutiny Bay saw the float plane crash on Sunday afternoon, leaving 1 dead and 9 missing
One person was killed, and nine people are still missing after a seaplane crashed Sunday afternoon in Mutiny Bay off of the Washington state coast.
The U.S. Coast Guard said that temporary flight restrictions had been established by the Federal Aviation Administration, with first-light searches set to resume on Monday by aircraft and crews.
Two Coast Guard cutters, USCGC Osprey and USCGC Blue Shark, searched throughout the evening.
The Island County Sheriff, Snohomish County Sheriff and S. Whidbey Fire/EMS were on the scene.

A surface safety zone had been placed around the scene of the crash to aid in search efforts.
The seaplane was en route from Friday Harbor to Renton Municipal Airport.
The Coast Guard Sector Puget Sound Command Center received a report at 3:11 p.m. local time that a float plane had crashed with nine adults and one child aboard.
The cause of the crash remains unknown.
Portland's FOX 12 said authorities reported recovering one of the missing victims at around 5:45 p.m.
FOX 13 Seattle reported that initial calls to 911 indicated the plane had landed nose-first into the water and that people living miles away reported hearing a loud boom.
"It sounded like dynamite went off," Rick Rasmussen, who was on the beach with his wife when the plane went down, told the station.

It might not be a Cajun restaurant, but Duval's in downtown Sarasota has made the po'boy its signature sandwich.
What's the dish
Sometimes you like a sandwich so much that you buy the restaurant. At least that's what happened to Jim Abrams.
Abrams, a former energy executive, walked into Duval's more than a decade ago and he tried the shrimp po'boy sandwich and suddenly, he was in the restaurant business. Eleven years later, his son Sean continues the mission of feeding crowds on Sarasota's Main Street. And the one thing tying everything together is the po'boy on the menu.
“It’s our staple sandwich,” says Kelly Dungan, marketing director for Duval’s. “We have people who come in specifically for that po’ boy. It’s the talk of the town sometimes.”
Tastes and textures
You can get the po'boy with your choice of oysters, shrimp or chicken, and all three are served on a baguette with napa cabbage, tomato and chipotle remoulade.
The shrimp, chicken and oysters are breaded and fried, but Dungan says you could order them grilled if you wanted.
"It's a classic southern-style sandwich," says Dungan. "The baguette is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
"The chipotle remoulade gives it a bit of a spicy kick. But not too much. You get the crispy shrimp and the crunch of the cabbage, so you have a nice balance of textures and flavors."
Choose your own adventure
The shrimp is the original and the most frequently ordered of the po'boys, but Dungan says Duval's branched out to give customers a chance to try different types of flavors.
Sometimes, she says, people even order off the menu and ask for a scallop po'boy, and the chef is happy to accommodate.
Oysters may not be a typical sandwich item, but Dungan says that the menu choice gives an entry point to eaters who may not want to slurp them raw from the shell.
"It's a little bit less intimidating to try an oyster that way," she says. "A po'boy is an easy, friendly dish. Giving the option of having a fried oyster on there gives you something familiar with something maybe a little bit new and different."
Decorum
This sandwich is thick and surely not everyone can get their mouth around it. Do people eat it with a fork and knife?
"Some people take the top of the bread off and just use the bottom of the bread," says Dungan. "There's definitely people who use the fork and knife. And then there's people who just kind of sandwich it into their face and get in there."
Just a taste
You don't have to go for the whole sandwich if you're not hungry for it; Duval's also offers the po'boy as part of a soup-and-sandwich combo. You can get a half-sandwich and combine it with a soup or a cup of New England Clam Chowder for $12.75, and for an additional $5, you can upgrade from the chowder to the Lobster Bisque.
"It's also on our happy hour menu," says Dungan. "We like to serve it in as many ways as we can think of."
Something different
Dungan says she would normally recommend pairing a local beer with the po'boy, but if a customer wants to try something unique, she'd steer them toward the bacon bourbon Old Fashioned cocktail.
"That's probably our most well-known cocktail," she says. "It has candied pepper bacon."

BEIJING, Sept. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- As the only on-demand retail industry representative at the New Digital Consumption Forum of the China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) in Beijing this year, General Manager of JDDJ Mr. Changming Li gave a speech to discuss how JDDJ supports real economy and boosts consumption as an on-demand retail platform.
"In the next few years, on-demand retail will grow explosively and become the megatrend," Li stated. "On-demand retail is the new driver for the high-quality development of the real economy. As a player under the on-demand open platform model, JDDJ is leveraging digital capabilities and delivery infrastructure, to accelerate the digitalization of traditional retail."
New model, new growth
More consumers are embracing on-demand retail. In July, a report about China's online retail market issued by the Ministry of Commerce mentioned "on-demand retail" for the first time, and recognized its value in integrating offline and online retail.
Meanwhile, Dada Group released the "White Paper On Open On-Demand Retail Platform Model" in collaboration with China Chain Store & Franchise Association (CCFA) and JD.com's Consumption and Industry Development Research Institute.
The White Paper demonstrated that on-demand retail, which is an important part of the to-home business segment within China's overall O2O market, is ushering in a phase of rapid growth. It is estimated that by 2025, the size of the open on-demand retail platform model will exceed the trillion-yuan threshold, reaching about 1.2 trillion yuan and becoming an important component of the to-home business.
During this year's 618 Grand Promotion, JDDJ and Shop Now engaged over 150,000 brick-and-mortar stores across over 1,700 cities and counties in China to provide consumers with products of all categories and a faster and more convenient shopping experience, making on-demand retail a key driver for offline retailers and brands' omni-channel growth. The sales on both platforms increased by 77% year-on-year, with the number of consumers buying through Shop Now this year during the promotion increasing by over 400% compared to the same period last year.
Traditional retailers' digitalization
Li pointed out that the core components of on-demand retail are still efficiency and experience, in line with traditional retail. The on-demand retail model connects the offline and online, requiring more efficient coordination among platforms, retailers and brand owners. An increasing number of physical retailers now realize the importance of on-demand retail, while facing the difficulties of transformation.
Based on seven years of experience, JDDJ's digital solutions for on-demand retail are maturing, including traffic operation, products management, fulfillment and digital tools, facilitating traditional retailers and brand owners' entry into the on-demand arena.
Taking CR Vanguard as an example, through its cooperation with JDDJ, its online sales increased by 2.2 times in 2020 compared with 2019. The marketing campaign "Super Merchant Day", jointly created by JDDJ and CR Vanguard, drove an over 200% increase month-over-month in sales.
In the past six years, JD.com has transformed from an e-commerce business into a supply chain-based technology and service provider. It also emerged resiliently from the COVID disruptions with a strong sense of responsibility to create not only business and industrial values, but also social values with its infrastructure and digital know-how, contributing to society's higher efficiency in production, circulation, consumption, services and more. In doing so, JD.com has been devoted to the knitting together and fusion of three networks, including a transaction network that covers around-the-clock omni-channel shopping scenarios, a warehousing and distribution network that serves nationwide and extends globally, and a service network that is enabled by intelligent technologies, with partners across a variety of industries that are conducive to the development of the real economy.
As the on-demand retail business in JD's ecosystem, JDDJ deeply links various physical retail stores, playing an important role in the product transaction network to improve the overall efficiency of goods picking and delivery.

Famous Turkish actress Hazal Kaya revealed, on Sunday, that she is pregnant for the second time and the Turkish actress also revealed the gender of her baby.
Hazal Kaya said, during a private ceremony, that the gender of her baby is a female, while she did not reveal the name that she intends to name her song.
The news circulated around the famous movie star Hazal Kaya being three months pregnant and expecting her second child with her husband Ali Atay.
Last December, during an interview, Hazal completely denied the news herself and ever since the news spread again, neither Hazal or Ali confirmed the news.
Hazal gave birth to her first child in November 2019.
Hazal Kaya tied the knot to director and actor Ali Atay in 2018. Ali Atay is 14 years older than Hazal, and the pair got married in a lavish wedding ceremony in Istanbul. | https://www.albawaba.com/entertainment/hazal-kaya-reveals-sex-her-baby-1490000 | 2022-09-05T12:13:03Z | https://www.albawaba.com/entertainment/hazal-kaya-reveals-sex-her-baby-1490000 | false |
Wizards of the Coast has issued an apology regarding a Dungeons & Dragons update that included “offensive material” connected to the game’s Hadozee race.
The newest Dungeons & Dragons campaign, Spelljammer: Adventures in Space, introduced the Hadozee race via the Astral Adventurer’s Guide. A passage refers to them as “timid mammals, no bigger than house cats,” before likening them to monkeys with “wing-like flaps” that allow them to “glide from branch to branch”.
The text then goes on to tell the story of a wizard who trapped and enslaved the creatures with the intent of selling them, before the wizard’s apprentices befriended the Hadozee and set them free. Fans of the series pointed out certain parallels to the Black experience and history of worldwide slavery, and now Wizards of the Coast has responded.
In a statement on the Dungeons & Dragons website, the company says it wants to “acknowledge and own the inclusion of offensive material” within the text and admits that it “failed” players and fans, and is “truly sorry”.
Wizards of the Coast claimed that portions of the backstory of the Hadozee was not “fully vetted” prior to launch, and that as a result of this the company has to “do better”. It goes on to say that it understands the “urgency” of changing working methods to ensure “a more inclusive game”.
Additionally, the studio promised that the offensive content would be removed “effective immediately” in digital versions, with future reprints of the book also omitting it. Wizards claimed its priority is to “make things right” when mistakes happen, and will be conducting a thorough internal review, leading to taking the necessary actions as a result.
In concluding its statement, Wizards of the Coast thanked its community and said that, “D&D teaches that diversity is strength,” as well as reiterating its commitment to making the game as “welcoming and inclusive as possible”.
In other news, retail copies of Splatoon 3 have begun to ship early, leading to content from the single-player campaign mode appearing online prior to release. | https://www.nme.com/news/gaming-news/dungeons-dragons-studio-apologises-for-offensive-racial-stereotyping-3304330 | 2022-09-05T12:24:27Z | https://www.nme.com/news/gaming-news/dungeons-dragons-studio-apologises-for-offensive-racial-stereotyping-3304330 | true |
BEIJING, Sept. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- As the only on-demand retail industry representative at the New Digital Consumption Forum of the China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) in Beijing this year, General Manager of JDDJ Mr. Changming Li gave a speech to discuss how JDDJ supports real economy and boosts consumption as an on-demand retail platform.
"In the next few years, on-demand retail will grow explosively and become the megatrend," Li stated. "On-demand retail is the new driver for the high-quality development of the real economy. As a player under the on-demand open platform model, JDDJ is leveraging digital capabilities and delivery infrastructure, to accelerate the digitalization of traditional retail."
New model, new growth
More consumers are embracing on-demand retail. In July, a report about China's online retail market issued by the Ministry of Commerce mentioned "on-demand retail" for the first time, and recognized its value in integrating offline and online retail.
Meanwhile, Dada Group released the "White Paper On Open On-Demand Retail Platform Model" in collaboration with China Chain Store & Franchise Association (CCFA) and JD.com's Consumption and Industry Development Research Institute.
The White Paper demonstrated that on-demand retail, which is an important part of the to-home business segment within China's overall O2O market, is ushering in a phase of rapid growth. It is estimated that by 2025, the size of the open on-demand retail platform model will exceed the trillion-yuan threshold, reaching about 1.2 trillion yuan and becoming an important component of the to-home business.
During this year's 618 Grand Promotion, JDDJ and Shop Now engaged over 150,000 brick-and-mortar stores across over 1,700 cities and counties in China to provide consumers with products of all categories and a faster and more convenient shopping experience, making on-demand retail a key driver for offline retailers and brands' omni-channel growth. The sales on both platforms increased by 77% year-on-year, with the number of consumers buying through Shop Now this year during the promotion increasing by over 400% compared to the same period last year.
Traditional retailers' digitalization
Li pointed out that the core components of on-demand retail are still efficiency and experience, in line with traditional retail. The on-demand retail model connects the offline and online, requiring more efficient coordination among platforms, retailers and brand owners. An increasing number of physical retailers now realize the importance of on-demand retail, while facing the difficulties of transformation.
Based on seven years of experience, JDDJ's digital solutions for on-demand retail are maturing, including traffic operation, products management, fulfillment and digital tools, facilitating traditional retailers and brand owners' entry into the on-demand arena.
Taking CR Vanguard as an example, through its cooperation with JDDJ, its online sales increased by 2.2 times in 2020 compared with 2019. The marketing campaign "Super Merchant Day", jointly created by JDDJ and CR Vanguard, drove an over 200% increase month-over-month in sales.
In the past six years, JD.com has transformed from an e-commerce business into a supply chain-based technology and service provider. It also emerged resiliently from the COVID disruptions with a strong sense of responsibility to create not only business and industrial values, but also social values with its infrastructure and digital know-how, contributing to society's higher efficiency in production, circulation, consumption, services and more. In doing so, JD.com has been devoted to the knitting together and fusion of three networks, including a transaction network that covers around-the-clock omni-channel shopping scenarios, a warehousing and distribution network that serves nationwide and extends globally, and a service network that is enabled by intelligent technologies, with partners across a variety of industries that are conducive to the development of the real economy.
As the on-demand retail business in JD's ecosystem, JDDJ deeply links various physical retail stores, playing an important role in the product transaction network to improve the overall efficiency of goods picking and delivery.

Max Verstappen stood on his car to milk the applause as the 100,000-strong Orange Army engulfed their national hero in a sea of their favorite color after he won the Dutch Grand Prix on Sunday.
A second straight win at the Zandvoort track by the seaside; a fourth straight win for the first time in his career and already a 30th overall; a 109-point lead with only seven races left. That orange wave is carrying him to a second straight world title.
“It’s nice to see all the crowd and the craziness, I appreciate it a lot,” Verstappen said. “This was a very special weekend for me. It’s been incredible.”
It seems a question now of when, rather than if, the Red Bull driver seals the title and if he can beat Sebastian Vettel’s F1 record of 13 wins in a season from 2013 — also achieved with Red Bull. Verstappen has won 10 races this season so far.
Seven-time F1 champion Lewis Hamilton has never won more than 11 in a single campaign.
“It’s down to the team, of course, but that’s also how Lewis won the championships. That’s what good drivers do, they make the difference,” Verstappen said. “Even when we win races we want to do better. That’s how you stay on top. Because if you stand still people will overtake you.”
Verstappen made quick work of a safety car restart this time to overtake Hamilton.
His 10th win matched his tally from last year as his challengers — Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and teammate Sergio Perez in joint second — fell further back in the standings.
“Very lovely result guys,” Verstappen said to his team, before telling his legions of supporters he was “proud to be Dutch.”
His win was even more special because of a gearbox problem in Friday’s first practice session.
George Russell finished second for Mercedes ahead of Leclerc, with Hamilton dropping from first to fourth.
“As a team we showed incredible pace today. The team result wasn’t quite what we hoped for but we can take a lot of confidence moving forward,” Russell said. “We are slowly getting closer to that top step.”
Verstappen looked to be coasting to victory when a safety car came out on Lap 56 of 72, after the engine cut out on Valtteri Bottas’ Alfa Romeo.
Verstappen changed tires and was behind leader Hamilton’s Mercedes with 12 laps left.
But Hamilton was on a slower medium tire and Verstappen on the quicker softs left the British driver pretty much a sitting duck, much like when he lost the title to Verstappen at last year’s season-ending Abu Dhabi GP.
Hamilton misjudged his restart and Verstappen overtook him straight away to bring a huge roar from the crowd. The Dutchman also took an extra point for the fastest lap.
“I had a good run in the restart, we had a bit more top speed and that helps to attack into Turn 1,” Verstappen said. “From there onwards we had really good balance in the car again.”
An angry Hamilton took it out on his team, using an expletive on radio to tell them he wasn’t happy about not swapping for new tires under safety car, when Russell had.
“I was just on the edge of breaking point with my emotions. My apologies to the team,” Hamilton said. “I just lost it for a second. But I think they know that there is just so much passion.”
Hamilton appeared to brake late when Russell overtook him and they nearly collided.
“Could have been nasty but there’s nothing but respect between us,” Russell said.
After Hamilton unleashed another expletive-laced rant, Leclerc overtook him on an otherwise poor day for a Ferrari team unable to cut out the most basic errors.
Leclerc started from second ahead of Carlos Sainz Jr. in third. Sainz finished eighth and got a five-second penalty for an unsafe release in the pitlane. Sainz said he was trying to avoid a McLaren mechanic in front of him and had to “hit the brakes.”
Earlier in the race, Ferrari botched Sainz’s tire change on Lap 15 — taking 13 seconds — in a season of bizarre incidents.
This time the tires were not even ready.
“Oh my God,” a stunned Sainz said.
Ferrari even left the tire-changing gun on the floor and Perez narrowly missed rolling over it.
Verstappen produced a brilliant final lap Saturday to take pole from Leclerc by .02 seconds — the smallest margin this season — in a qualifying session marred by a flare thrown onto the track.
Fans packed the grandstands Sunday, many wearing colors of the Dutch flag. Thousands of fans cycled to the track.
Verstappen started well and shut the door on Leclerc while Sainz held off Hamilton on the outside.
Leclerc came in on Lap 18 and Ferrari had his tires ready, at least. Verstappen came in on the next lap as Red Bull matched Ferrari’s strategy, while Mercedes stayed out with Hamilton leading from Russell.
The race became more open when a Virtual Safety Car (VSC) came out after Yuki Tsunoda retired his AlphaTauri on Lap 47.
Verstappen and others changed tires. Leclerc lost position under the VSC and was fourth at the restart.
Then the real safety car came out.
So Verstappen came in for another change, exiting just behind Russell and Hamilton. Russell asked to come in for new tires and it proved the right call.
Perez finished the race fifth ahead of Fernando Alonso, who drove brilliantly to move his Alpine up from 13th on the grid.
Lando Norris (McLaren) finished in seventh spot, followed by Sainz, Esteban Ocon (Alpine) and Lance Stroll (Aston Martin).
Misfiring Ferrari hopes to give its tifosi fans something to cheer about next weekend at the Italian GP in Monza.
“The gap is now really big,” Leclerc said. “Max was too quick today.”
As he has been most of the season.

Smoked salmon recalled due to listeria risk
Published: Sep. 5, 2022 at 6:52 AM CDT|Updated: 33 minutes ago
(CNN) - Seafood fans may want to take a close look inside the fridge.
Miami-based St. James Smokehouse issued a voluntary recall of its smoked salmon.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said the food may be tainted with listeria. Listeria can cause serious and possibly fatal infections in children, elderly adults and people with weakened immune systems.
The salmon was sold by distributors between February and June of this year. The product was distributed to stores located in Alabama, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, Washington, Virginia and Wisconsin.
As of last week, no related illnesses have been reported.
