WOODVILLE, Texas — A 28-year-old Woodville man is out on bond after leading Tyler County deputies on a high-speed chase Wednesday morning.
Tommy Lee Chambless, 28, of Woodville, was arrested Wednesday morning by deputies after he wrecked a 2006 Cadillac on a dirt road north of Dam-B according to a news release from the Tyler County Sheriff's Office.
When Tyler County deputies attempted to stop Chambless for a traffic violation at about 10 a.m. along FM 92 just north of U.S. Highway 190 near Dam-B he refused to stop and continued north the release said.

WASHINGTON — An inflation gauge that is closely monitored by the Federal Reserve jumped 6.4% in February compared with a year ago, with sharply higher prices for food, gasoline and other necessities squeezing Americans' finances.
The figure reported Thursday by the Commerce Department was the largest year-over-year rise since January 1982. Excluding volatile prices for food and energy, so-called core inflation increased 5.4% in February from 12 months earlier.
Robust consumer demand has combined with shortages of many goods to fuel the sharpest price jumps in four decades. Measures of inflation will likely worsen in the coming months because Thursday's report doesn't reflect the consequences of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which occurred Feb. 24. The war has disrupted global oil markets and accelerated prices for wheat, nickel and other key commodities.
Squeezed by inflation, consumers increased their spending by just 0.2% in February, down from a much larger 2.7% gain in January. Adjusted for inflation, spending actually fell 0.4% last month. The decline partly reflected a shift away from heavy spending on goods to a focus on services, such as health care, travel and entertainment, which consumers had long avoided during the worst of the pandemic.
Spending on such services grew 0.6%, the most since July, while purchases of autos, furniture, clothes and other goods dropped 2.1%. Many economists had previously suggested that a shift away from goods purchases might loosen supply chain snarls and cool inflation. But prices are still rising rapidly for goods, including a 1.1% increase in February.
Americans' overall incomes rose 0.5% in February, the highest gain since November and up from just 0.1% in January. Wages and salaries jumped 0.8%, the most in four months.
Businesses have been raising pay to attract and keep employees — a trend that is benefiting workers but also giving employers cause to raise prices to offset their higher labor costs. That cycle is helping fuel inflation.
Last month, food costs climbed 1.4%, the most in nearly two years. Energy costs spiked 3.7%, the biggest such increase since October.
The Federal Reserve responded this month to the inflation surge by raising its benchmark short-term interest rate by a quarter-point from near zero, and it's likely to keep raising it well into next year. Because its rate affects many consumer and business loans, the Fed's rate hikes will make borrowing more expensive and could weaken the economy over time.
Michael Feroli of JPMorgan is among economists who now think the Fed will raise its key rate by an aggressive half-point in both May and June. The central bank hasn't raised its benchmark rate by a half-point in two decades, a sign of how concerned it has become about the persistent surge in inflation.
On a monthly basis, prices rose 0.6% from January to February, up slightly from the previous month’s increase of 0.5% and matching the highest monthly figure since 2008. Core prices rose 0.4%, down from a 0.5% increase in January.
Gas prices have soared in the past month in the aftermath of Russia’s invasion, which led the United Kingdom and the Biden administration to ban Russia’s oil exports. The cost of a gallon of gas shot up to a national average of $4.24 a gallon Wednesday, according to AAA. That’s up 63 cents from a month ago, when it was $3.61.
Michael Pearce, an economist at Capital Economics, estimated that the gas price spike will cost Americans an annualized $100 billion in March.
Americans will likely dig into their savings to cover the higher gas costs in the near term, he said. “But if higher gasoline prices are sustained, that will eventually weigh on spending in other areas.”
On Thursday, President Joe Biden is expected to order the release of up to 1 million barrels of oil a day from the nation's strategic petroleum reserve in an effort to reduce gas prices.
Thursday’s report follows a more widely monitored inflation gauge, the consumer price index, that was issued earlier this month. The CPI jumped to 7.9% in February from a year ago, the sharpest such increase in four decades.
Many economists still expect inflation to peak in the coming months. In part, that’s because price spikes that occurred last year, when the economy widely reopened, will begin to make the year-over-year price increases appear smaller. Yet Fed officials project that inflation, as measured by its preferred gauge, will still be a comparatively high 4.3% by the end of this year. | https://www.12newsnow.com/article/news/nation-world/inflation-rise-40-year-high/507-ea31c9f1-2c7e-4c2c-ab71-e49a7ad49ad2 | 2022-03-31T15:59:03 | en | 0.974239 |

As some medical experts warn that another COVID-19 surge could be on the way, people are claiming online that Americans without health insurance no longer have access to some free COVID-19 testing and treatment options.
An estimated 31 million people in the United States were uninsured in the first six months of 2021.
A headline from WebMD says those who are uninsured could pay nearly $200 for COVID-19 tests. Adam Gaffney, M.D., who is a critical care doctor and assistant professor at Harvard Medical School, said in a tweet on March 22 that COVID-19 care is being rationed “by ability to pay.”
According to Gaffney, federal coverage for COVID-19 treatment and testing for uninsured Americans has already ended.
THE QUESTION
Has federal coverage for COVID-19 treatment and testing for uninsured Americans ended?
THE SOURCES
- The White House
- U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), agency within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
- Kimberly Gorode, Quest Diagnostics spokesperson
- Kaiser Family Foundation, nonprofit focused on U.S. health issues
- National Association of Chain Drugstores
THE ANSWER
Yes, federal coverage of COVID-19 testing and treatment for uninsured Americans has ended.
WHAT WE FOUND
Since March 2020, the federal government has allotted trillions of dollars to fund the nation’s coronavirus response through the CARES Act and American Rescue Plan. But the White House says that money is running out.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced on March 9 that additional COVID-19 funding would not be included in the 2022 $1.5 trillion omnibus spending bill, blaming Republican resistance. That legislation was recently passed by Congress and signed into law by President Joe Biden.
Pelosi said it was “heartbreaking” to remove COVID-19 funding from the bill. Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), along with 35 other Senate Republicans, wrote in a letter to the Biden administration on March 2 that “it is not yet clear why additional funding is needed.”
Without renewed funding, a program reimbursing doctors and other medical providers for COVID-19 tests and treatments for uninsured people was forced to end in late March, the Biden administration said.
On its website, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), says its COVID-19 Uninsured Program (UIP) stopped accepting claims for testing and treatment as of March 22 “due to a lack of sufficient funds.”
Quest Diagnostics, a medical lab company, has begun notifying its clients and partners that it is no longer expecting to be reimbursed for rapid and PCR testing through the program “unless additional funding is allocated,” spokesperson Kimberly Gorode told VERIFY. Patients enrolled in Medicare, Medicaid or a private health insurance plan are not affected right now. The cost of PCR testing through Quest Diagnostics now costs $125 for uninsured patients, according to Gorode.
In a letter sent to the Biden administration on March 17, the National Association of Chain Drug Stores said the ability for health care providers, including pharmacies, to provide access to care for their patients is “in imminent jeopardy.” | https://www.12newsnow.com/article/news/verify/coronavirus-verify/covid-uninsured-program-testing-treatment-coverage-ends/536-1e97a159-e831-4822-9fbc-94b6decb77ad | 2022-03-31T15:59:09 | en | 0.961707 |

LUMBERTON, Texas — Throughout her four years as a Raider, Hannah Breaux has been fully dedicated to Lumberton soccer.
“She’s one of the best goal keepers in the area. She’s one of the best goal keepers I’ve been able to train in my lifetime,” said Lumberton Girls Soccer coach Jason Hopson.
“Goal keepers are normally captain-type players because that’s what they have to be back there," said Coach Hopson. "They have to be in charge. They have to command people and she naturally fits into that role very well. Hannah has never struggled with that leadership role.”
Her commitment has been evident to both her coach and her teammates.
“As a Junior, I’ll be the senior captain next year," said Captain Averie McFarland. "I’m hoping to take take qualities that Hannah had onto myself so I can be a better captain, not only for the program but for everybody, because of Hannah's example this year."
After more than a decade of lacing up her cleats, Breaux is reaching the end of her soccer career but not without bringing home a State Championship.
“We’re a great team and we have a lot of team chemistry and we have a really good chance of winning this year," said Athlete of the Week Hannah Breaux. "If we keep working as hard as we can and we’re confident then we have a good chance of going all the way.”
Even though Breaux is moving on from soccer after this year Coach Hopson says he couldn’t be happier for her and knows she’ll continue to be successful off the field.
“As it is she’s going where she wants to go and she’s pursuing her other dreams so I’m extremely happy for her," said Coach Hopson. "I know that her confidence and everything that she’s learned through our program and everything she’s taught other through our program is going to help her be who she wants to be in life. I’m proud of her.” | https://www.12newsnow.com/article/sports/soccer/lumbertons-hannah-breaux-earns-409sports-athlete-of-the-week-title/502-a91b454d-8262-4beb-bae1-fde5651cf89a | 2022-03-31T15:59:16 | en | 0.983324 |

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is ordering the release of 1 million barrels of oil per day from the nation’s strategic petroleum reserve for six months, the White House said Thursday, in a bid to control energy prices that have spiked as the U.S. and allies imposed steep sanctions on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.
Biden was making the formal announcement later Thursday in remarks on his administration’s plans to combat rising gas prices.
The White House says Biden will also call on Congress to impose financial penalties on oil and gas companies that lease public lands but aren’t producing energy. | https://fox4kc.com/news/biden-taps-oil-reserve-for-6-months-to-control-gas-prices/ | 2022-03-31T15:59:32 | en | 0.961168 |

SURPRISE, Ariz. — Kansas City Royals manager Mike Matheny won’t have to think about his future with the club, at least for the 2023 season.
The Royals announced Thursday that it exercised their club option on Mahteny’s contract for the 2023 season. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
“Mike is one of the finest leaders I’ve been around and the Royals are fortunate to have him managing our team,” Dayton Moore, Royals President of Baseball Operations, said. “He is a tremendous competitor who cares deeply about players, the Kansas City community, and this great game of baseball. It is an absolute joy for our entire baseball operations department to work with him.”
The Royals hired Matheny in 2018, but it wasn’t until the next year that he was named the Royals manager.
“I’m proud and honored to work with this group of players and staff here with the Royals,” Matheny said. “Being able to continue that work is a privilege that I take very seriously. I know we’re in the middle of something special and I’m excited for our fans to see it.”
Matheny is 100-122 through his first two seasons with the Royals. The team has increased its win percentage in each of the last two seasons under Matheny, going 74-88 (.457) in 2021, following a 26-34 (.433) shortened season in 2020. In the two seasons prior to his arrival, the Royals went 58-104 (.358) and 59-103 (.364).
The Royals open the 2022 season at home against the Cleveland Guardians on Thursday, April 7. Matheny announced Zach Greinke would be the starting pitcher on opening day. Tickets for opening day and the rest of the season are now on sale.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith made an appearance on the Rich Eisen Show and discussed the trade of wide receiver Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins.
Smith played two years with Hill during his tenure with the Chiefs, including the Cheetah‘s rookie season.
“Flat out, you’re not going to replace him. There is literally only one Tyreek Hill in the whole NFL. He is that kind of difference maker,” Smith said. “Honestly, when he’s on the field, the defense plays differently, he opens up so many other players around him because everyone is so fearful.”
Hill’s explosive abilities and speed earned him three First-Team All-Pro honors and a Pro Bowl selection all six years he’s played in the NFL.
With the Chiefs, he caught 479 passes for 6,630 yards and 56 touchdowns. As a returner, he tallied 1,009 yards and 5 touchdowns.
“There is a lot of fast guys in the league that are very one dimensional, Tyreek is not that. We saw that throughout the playoffs. Catch-and-run, catching the deep ball, put him back there punt [and] kickoff return, hand him the ball in the backfield,’ Smith said. “He’s an incredible weapon, incredibly unique and you’re just not gonna fill those shoes.”
Hill reached over 100 receiving yards in 4 games during his time in Kansas City, including the overtime thriller against the Buffalo Bills last season where he scored a 64-yard touchdown a minute left on the clock.
“I do think they won’t be as dynamic on offense. This is the trade off that I think Andy is thinking about and Brett Veach,” Smith said. “For the salary that they were potentially going to get him and the drafts picks that they got in return, can they go be better on the defensive side of the ball.”
The Dolphins sent the Chiefs five draft picks in exchange for Hill’s services.
“This has kind of been Andy’s M.O. his entire coaching career,” Smith said. “Rather than let you play out your contract and walk away for nothing, he’s certainly going to try and get value for you while he can. I was even a product of that.”
Smith was traded to the Washington Commanders in 2018 after an MVP-caliber season to make way for Patrick Mahomes.
With Hill gone, one of Mahomes’ favorite targets will leave a void and the Chiefs will look to fill the gap. So far this offseason, they signed wide receivers JuJu Smith-Schuster and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
Mecole Hardman, who drew comparisons to Hill’s speed when he was drafted, also waits in the depth chart as he continues to improve every season.
Rumors report that Kansas City remain in the hunt for another top receiver.
“They will not be as explosive as they have been on offense, period, with Tyreek gone,” Smith doubled down. “You just can’t. He’s just that kind of player.” | https://fox4kc.com/sports/chiefs/former-chiefs-qb-alex-smith-reacts-to-tyreek-hill-trade/ | 2022-03-31T15:59:44 | en | 0.980197 |

Study Abstract Recognized as Best Clinical Abstract at 2022 Radiosurgical Society Meeting
SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Accuray Incorporated (NASDAQ: ARAY) announced today that long-term follow-up data from a study of men and women with trigeminal neuralgia (TN) showed 72 percent continued to experience pain relief 10 years after receiving image-guided robotic radiosurgery treatments delivered with the CyberKnife® System. The study abstract, titled "Robotic Image-Guided Radiosurgery for Trigeminal Neuralgia: Results after 10 Years," was recognized as Best Clinical Abstract at the recent 2022 Radiosurgical Society Meeting in Carlsbad, California.
TN occurs most frequently in people over the age of 50 years old and is more common in women than in men [1]. A chronic pain condition affecting a craniofacial nerve that is primarily responsible for transmitting sensations from the face to the brain, TN is described by some patients as the most excruciating pain human beings can suffer. Pain can be brought on from the lightest of touches to the face, even a gently breeze can start a painful attack.
"Many people don't understand how debilitating the chronic pain associated with trigeminal neuralgia can be. If left untreated, or inadequately treated, it can be difficult to perform daily activities that most of us take for granted – from eating a meal, washing our face or brushing our teeth, to talking. That's why studies like this are so significant. They demonstrate that with treatment options like CyberKnife radiosurgery, we can provide our patients long-term pain control – without a rigid head frame, surgery or medications. We can offer our patients hope and the chance to once again focus on what's possible in their lives," said Alfredo Conti, associate professor of neurosurgery at Alma Mater Bologna University in Bologna, Italy.
TN can affect patients over the course of their lives, making long-term medical care a necessity. Treatment of TN usually begins with medication to block the pain signals sent to the brain. Over time, some medications become less effective, and certain patients experience unpleasant side effects. Alternative treatments, such as injections, radiofrequency, balloon compression, surgery or radiosurgery, may be required for these patients.
"Clinical data continues to confirm the durable benefits that CyberKnife radiosurgery can provide over the long term. The system delivers advanced radiotherapy treatments with sub-millimeter accuracy, which is of critical importance when treating tumors and lesions in the brain, while minimizing risk of potential side effects," said Suzanne Winter, president of Accuray. "This most recent trigeminal neuralgia study reinforces why medical care teams turn to CyberKnife radiosurgery when precision and accuracy are essential and demonstrates the positive impact this non-invasive treatment option may have on the lives of people living with this severe and challenging-to-treat medical condition."
The CyberKnife System was designed to treat diseases in the head and base of the skull, and functional disorders, with radiosurgery – without the use of a fixed frame bolted to the patient's head. The system features a linear accelerator (linac) directly mounted on a robot that moves and bends around the patient to deliver non-isocentric, non-coplanar radiation beams from potentially thousands of unique angles, facilitating highly precise and accurate treatments – typically in just one to five visits.
Using advanced imaging and Accuray-exclusive Synchrony® real-time target tracking with dynamic delivery technology, the CyberKnife® System can track the tumor or lesion and continually verify its position, automatically correcting and adapting the radiation beam position for even the slightest movement. Synchrony uses advanced algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI) to drive dynamic delivery accounting for motion with uninterrupted treatment delivery and maximum patient comfort. For example, if the patient moves their head during treatment, the CyberKnife System detects this movement and synchronizes the treatment delivery beam to the tumor's or lesion's new position in real-time.
About the Study[2]
The primary study objective was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CyberKnife radiosurgery in TN patients. A prescription dose of 60 Gy was delivered in a single fraction to a 6-mm segment of the nerve. The same dose was delivered if a second treatment was needed; over time the second dose was reduced to 45 Gy. All patients had taken medications for an average of 4.3 years before treatment with radiation. The Cyberknife Center of CDI (Milan) treated 668 patients with TN during the last 12 years;10-year data is available for 84 patients.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida's head of Agriculture and Consumer Services said more investigating is needed into the death of a teen at an Orlando amusement park before her office takes further action.
Commissioner Nikki Fried shared that with reporters Wednesday afternoon. It comes as authorities continue looking into the incident.
Last Thursday, Tyre Sampson fatally fell from the "Free Fall" ride at ICON Park. The 14-year-old was 6-foot-5 and more than 300 pounds — leading some to question if his size was a factor.
State Sen. Randolph Bracy, D-Orlando, has since called on Fried to use her department's rule-making powers to bolster safety at Florida's fixed amusement parks ASAP.
"As Mr. Sampson's family, friends, and all those who cared for him mourn, I am strongly urging the Department to take swift action for the critical safety of others," Bracy wrote in the Tuesday letter. "I urge the Department to: reexamine and implement minimum safety requirements for fixed amusement parks, implement secondary or additional safety restraints to quickly respond to mechanical and human errors, and require more robust peer training and safety protocols to increase accountability by amusement park operators."
In response, Fried said she was open to changes — but not immediately.
"It is way too soon," Fried said. "There are a lot of engineers having to go through — a lot of pulling back of layers. We're not going to jump to any conclusions until we know the facts."
The Democrat and candidate for Florida governor also gave her condolences to Sampson's family and vowed a transparent investigation.
"Obviously our hearts go out to them," she said. "No one should go to an amusement park and, unfortunately, leave without a member of their family."
The Free Fall ride remains closed at least until investigators conclude their work.
Sampson's family has threatened legal action against the ride’s owners. | https://www.wsfltv.com/commissioner-nikki-fried-wants-more-time-before-taking-action-on-amusement-park-ride-safety | 2022-03-31T16:03:37 | en | 0.978824 |

DUBLIN, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Hyperspectral Imaging - Market and Technology Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Global hyperspectral imaging markets will reach US$49.4 bn through 2030 from US$20 bn in 2022.
The report offers a detailed analysis of the global hyperspectral imaging systems market over the next eight years, and provides market size forecasts. Furthermore, it covers key technological and market trends in the industry and analyzes factors influencing demand for hyperspectral imaging systems.
Hyperspectral imaging is becoming an important part of optical spectroscopy-based imaging services. These include space missions, airborne remote sensing programs, industrial inspection and grading, medical applications, health diagnostics, food quality inspections, and defence and security applications.
The availability of hyperspectral scanners in all types of spectral ranges has created ample industrial and commercial application opportunities for hyperspectral imaging worldwide. By 2030, the hyperspectral imaging business in the world will flourish in almost all types of end-use applications.
Non-destructive and non-invasive monitoring is making hyperspectral imaging popular among many commercial and industrial applications such as food quality testing, diagnosis of cancer, identifying counterfeits, identifying fake art, sorting recycled material, automotive dashboard cameras, and so on. The list will grow as many startups are entering into service-oriented businesses based on hyperspectral imageries.
Many hyperspectral imaging system developers and manufacturers are tech-driven and lack vision for the scalability of the business and lack skills for marketing. Headwall selling the majority of the equity to Arsenal Capital Partners or Specim selling their business to Konika Minolta are examples where lack of ability to scale has made these companies make such decisions.
Going further in the next ten years we could see more of such decisions from other hyperspectral imaging companies. Mostly due to lack of capital or lack of ability to scale the business. The business is going to be huge and will expand in many countries and applications.
Scope
- The Hyperspectral Imaging market is projected to register a CAGR of 12.0% over 2022-2030
- In terms of platforms, the airborne remote sensing applications is anticipated to account for the largest share of revenue globally

TAMPA, Fla. — We met Marketaia Ingram on the patio of Karma Nest, a Tampa hotel where she’s been living since October 1st.
Ingram didn’t expect to be there so long.
“No, not at all. Maybe one or two months max,” she told us.
Ingram said she became homeless for the first time last year after falling victim to a housing scam when she made the move to Florida from North Carolina.
But with housing prices exploding, the one-bedroom hotel room is all she can afford right now for herself and her three young children.
“Very stressful,” Ingram said of her situation. “You’re expected to be strong and still take care of your children,” she said through tears.
But while Ingram and her kids may be considered homeless by school districts, county support groups, and the U.S. Department of Education which makes services available through the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, they don’t qualify for certain federal dollars that could take them out of a hotel and into permanent housing.
Why?
It boils down to how being homeless is defined.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development or HUD defines homelessness differently and more narrowly than other government agencies. In order to qualify for HUD funds including ‘rapid rehousing,” a person must be living in a shelter or out on the streets among other scenarios.
The more restricted definition means people living in hotels, staying with a friend or relative or couch-surfing aren’t considered “literally” homeless by HUD standards. Thus, they are not eligible for these HUD funds.
“So this boils down to a definition,” asked Investigative Reporter Katie LaGrone.
“Yes, absolutely,” said Laura Tucker, a school social worker and homeless liaison for the Hillsborough County School District in Tampa.
To advocates and insiders, the definition issue is a years-long battle and a nationwide problem that most often impacts children and families.
Most students identified as homeless by school districts live in some kind of shared housing at the time they are deemed homeless by their schools.
“Any parents will tell you they would rather stay with a friend or a relative even if it’s a tenuous situation, they would choose that as opposed to living on the side of the road or in the woods or even a shelter,” explained Tucker.
The narrow definition and its impact on children shocked even Tucker when she first started working with homeless students five years ago.
“The injustice of that was shocking. It just didn’t make any sense to me, it still doesn’t,” she said.
Of the more than 13,000 students identified in Hillsborough County as homeless over the past three years, more than half of these students were living in some kind of shared housing at the time.
State data provided by Florida’s Department of Education shows the same trend for students in every Florida county. As a result, most students and their families are ineligible for the kind of critical HUD funding that could help them secure more stable homes.
“It’s a flawed system,” said Tucker.
But it’s a system advocates have been trying to change for years.
In 2017, a federal bill was introduced to broaden HUD’s definition of homelessness to better align with other federal agencies.
The bill stalled with critics pointing to a lack of money, resources, and concern over ‘priority’ cases. As homelessness is defined right now by HUD, people living in shelters or on the streets are considered more of a priority than families who couch-surf or live night by night in a hotel.
In an email, a spokesperson from HUD stated:
The Biden-Harris Administration is taking steps to realize Secretary Fudge’s vision that everyone in America has a safe, stable place to call home. HUD is ensuring that people experiencing homelessness—including and especially families with children and youth—exit homelessness and enter permanent housing using a range of tailored housing and services. Over the last few years, HUD’s new homeless grant awards have prioritized programs that serve youth, survivors of gender-based violence, and families with children. HUD is also working to scale our rental assistance and affordable housing programs for families and households who experience all forms of housing insecurity, including being doubled-up or severely rent-burdened. And HUD has also been working with other federal agencies to prevent households from housing loss due to eviction and foreclosure.
It is important to note that the Department of Education’s definition of homelessness has a different purpose than HUD’s. HUD and the Department of Education are members of the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness and work closely to examine our data and to coordinate our programs, including HUD’s Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program.
“The pandemic has made it much worse,” explained Barbara Duffield, Executive Director of Schoolhouse Connection, a national advocacy group working to overcome homelessness through education.
“Even though there may be a roof over somebody’s head, it doesn’t mean they’re safe or stable,” she said.
Duffield was among those who testified before Congress back in 2018 in an effort to change how HUD defines homelessness.
Bi-partisan bills have since been reintroduced and with the pandemic forcing more families into homelessness and agencies to reexamine how they respond, Duffield says the law has to change.
“It has to change because if it doesn’t we’re going to see adult homelessness, the kind of homelessness people are familiar with. That is only going to grow,” Duffield said.
With the number of homeless families on the rise, advocates hope lawmakers will recognize the urgency to change the law before these families find themselves seeking help HUD won’t give them.
“What would you tell lawmakers,” Reporter Katie LaGrone asked Ingram.
“Think about the mental and emotional health of families. This makes me feel like I failed my kids,” Ingram said. | https://www.wsfltv.com/defining-homeless-how-it-determines-which-homeless-families-get-hud-help | 2022-03-31T16:03:43 | en | 0.971017 |

Senate lawmakers in Mississippi briefly suspended work when weather sirens blared during a tornado warning Wednesday.
Severe storms packing isolated tornadoes and high winds are racing across the Deep South, killing two in the Florida Panhandle and leaving scattered damage to buildings and homes in their path.
In Florida, the Washington County Sheriff's Office said two were killed and two injured when a tornado touched down in the town of Alford, west of Tallahassee.
More than 150,000 homes and businesses between the Gulf Coast and Great Lakes of Florida were without power Thursday morning, according to PowerOutage.us.
A tornado also hit a dorm in Alabama.
The University of Montavallo posted on Facebook saying, “very few people were on campus during the storms.”
One person was hurt.
Police and university officials were assessing the campus for damage.

It was snowing hard enough in areas north and northeast of KC last evening to cover the ground in some areas. It was cold everywhere. Wind chills were in the 20s later in the evening…and there were spits of rain and snow out there too. Overall just a miserable day and night.
Today isn’t a lot better. Clouds may not break till near sunset…temperatures this morning are starting in the low 30s…and may not warm much above 40° (of we even get there) and there may be a few flurries or rain drops around close to lunch or so. Not a nice day when the average is in the lower 60s.
Better weather moves in tomorrow though…after a frosty start…with additional rain chances coming Friday night and early Saturday. Overall the weekend though should be good…with moderating temperatures.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Forecast:
Today: Cloudy and breezy but not as windy as yesterday. Highs in the upper 30s to near 40°
Tonight: Clearing out and colder. Lows in the upper 20s to near 30°. A frosty start in the morning

Ugh…it’s like a never ending repeating scratched up record. Cold and gray again today. The satellite picture this morning aren’t very nice looking…but it can be worse…it’s snowing SW of the Metro this morning…and sticking. Some areas have had 1-2″ of snow down towards southern KS.
This is mostly passing SW of KC…but that is sticking snow falling and heading towards the Lakes region. Some flakes are still possible from KC southwards later this morning.
This system that we were showing you yesterday is pretty impressive looking. IF it was farther NE…we’d have a 1-2″ of snow on the grass this morning.
Here is a look at the system…
The morning surface map shows a lot of cold late March air coming towards the area still. We’re just not going to warm up that much at all today.
Here is the 9AM temps…I’ve sketched in the 32° line.
Between the colder air still funneling in and the clouds not leaving till around sunset…tough for us to warm up much at all. 40° may not even happen.
Again it gets better tomorrow.
The severe weather yesterday panned out in the Deep South.
In looking back over the past 10 years of tornado warnings…that area is certainly a hotbed of warning issuance at least. Doesn’t necessarily connect to actual tornados but a lot of warnings!
Yesterday there were 32 reports of tornadoes…
2 people lost their lives near Alford, FL in the Panhandle area.
That’s it for today…I may take a blog day off tomorrow…we’ll see how I feel in the morning.

LEE’S SUMMIT, Mo. — Voters in Lee’s Summit will head to the polls Tuesday to decide if the city should have a sales tax to help fund public safety.
Supporters want to increase the city’s sales tax by a half-cent. It would raise around $10 million a year.
If approved, the money will go to improving emergency services, including the police and fire departments in the city.
The city said it would use the funding to buy new equipment for training and improve response times. It would also allow the city to pay police officers and firefighters more.
Lee’s Summit currently does not charge a public safety sales tax. Other nearby cities such as Blue Springs, Raytown, and Independence do have the tax that helps fund emergency responders.
With a starting tax rate at 7.8%, Lee’s Summit has one of the lowest sales tax rates in the county. If the public safety sales tax passes it would raise the tax rate to 8.35%. That compares to Kansas City with the highest. In special shopping districts in Kansas City, people may pay as much as 11.6% in sales tax.
If the issue passes, the additional sales tax would take effect October 1st.
The election is Tuesday, April 5. Polls open at 6 a.m.

Absolute Total Care Shines a Light on Cyberbullying and Encourages South Carolina Youth to Make a Difference
COLUMBIA, S.C., March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- In today's world of technology, many youth experience the negative consequences of increased connectivity and socialization in the form of cyberbullying. Cyberbullying differs from traditional bullying in several ways, and as a result, Absolute Total Care wants to educate adults and youth across South Carolina about the risks of cyberbullying and how it impacts overall health.
Cyberbullying is harassment that takes place over digital devices, social media platforms and gaming experiences. According to the Pew Research Center, 59% of U.S. teens have been bullied or harassed online. Unlike traditional bullying, cyberbullying can take place 24 hours a day and includes actions such as making threats, spreading rumors, sharing personal information to humiliate, excluding someone on purpose and more.
"The pervasiveness of technology has created new avenues for bullying, making it more difficult for our youth to escape its harmful effects," said CEO John McClellan. "Cyberbullying can be uncharted territory for parents and caregivers from past generations, so Absolute Total Care wants to help raise awareness to help adults and youth recognize negative behavior and provide support."
Cyberbullying can lead to social and emotional distress, behavioral problems and mental health issues. Additionally, youth who are bullied are at increased risk for substance misuse, academic problems and violence to others. These effects on the mental wellbeing of youth can translate into physical health challenges later in life, extending the impact of cyberbullying long after it stops. The U.S. Surgeon General recently issued an advisory stating the youth mental health crisis has been further exposed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
To further spread awareness, Absolute Total Care is encouraging youth in South Carolina. to take action to promote prevention with their peers and community by participating in the Centene Institute Youth Impact Award for Cyberbullying Prevention. As part of the Centene family, Absolute Total Care invites youth ages 14-19 to watch a short video and read a fact sheet on cyberbullying before submitting their own original visual art entry that conveys cyberbullying awareness and prevention. The contest is open to eligible youth nationwide. All submissions are eligible to account for up to 10 hours of community service. The contest is now open and runs until May 20, 2022.
Below are some tips from the CDC, American Academy of Pediatrics and the Department of Health and Human Services to raise awareness and prevent cyberbullying that can inspire contest entries as well as be used to handle situations in everyday life:
- Create positive community environments that build confidence and social skills
- If bullied, immediately stop communication and block the person via digital channels
- Speak up if you feel uncomfortable with the comments or actions of someone
- Understand the possible warning signs of emotional distress

TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — TuSimple is a company building and testing autonomous semi-trucks in Tucson. These trucks can successfully navigate side streets, highways and traffic signals, all while responding to surrounding cars. They have around 20 cameras that allow for a 360-degree vision of the road around the vehicle.
“The truck is capable of detecting when vehicles cut in front of it," said Koabi Brooks, Director of Technical Operations. "It will slow down if necessary to create a safe follow distance. It sees when cars are merging on the highway.”
Autonomous trucks could provide a real solution to recent supply chain issues. The American Trucking Association estimates there’s a shortage of 80,000 truck drivers in the United States.
“People were shopping more online, getting more product delivered to their houses," said Lee White, Vice President of Strategy. "What that means is more movement by trucks, there’s been more demand than ever for truck movements.”
In December, TuSimple’s truck became the first fully autonomous and driverless semi on the open road. The company is now accelerating toward commercial use.
“In December we did a technology demo showing the world that driver-out capability is closer than we think," Brooks said. "The path to commercialization is closer than the world thinks.”
People could start seeing semis without drivers in the next few months. This year, Union Pacific will be the first company to use TuSimple’s trucks without drivers to haul freight from Tucson to Phoenix. Other partners like FedEx, DHL, and UPS will use the trucks for commercial shipments starting in 2023.
“We believe autonomous trucking is coming to the industry, we believe it's going to be on our roads in the very near future,” White said.

DENVER, Colo. — March 31 is International Transgender Day of Visibility. It's a day to raise awareness about the discrimination trans individuals face.
One big component of that prejudice is being judged on appearance, and for many trans youth, that can be damaging to their mental health.
Clothing is helping young trans individuals across the country find acceptance. The Transgender Center of the Rockies opened Marsha’s Closet. It provides free clothing and gender-affirming supplies like wigs, shoes and binders to help trans individuals find confidence and happiness.
Alma, a native of Colorado, frequents Marsha’s Closet and has found a home away from home in the community at the Transgender Center of the Rockies.
Shopping at Marsha’s Closet was a completely new experience after she tried to find clothes at the mall.
“You get discriminated, especially if you're barely in your beginning of your transition and you're still not technically the physical, the physical appearance,” said Alma. “It's awkward. It, it's very awkward, and it's very uncomfortable.”
She wanted clothes that made her feel beautiful.
“I was in a time where I felt alone,” said Alma. Marsha’s Closet changed that.
“This is kind of a one-stop-shop for gender-affirming clothing and items,” said Danielle Bono, the director of the Transgender Center of the Rockies. “Our hope is here to really uplift and center trans people.”
Items like wigs and binders, a garment to flatten the chest, can be expensive, but Marsha’s Closet takes that burden away. The closet lets people focus less on how they look and more on living the life that makes them happy.
“Really humanizing that they exist, that they matter, that we really are working alongside them to make sure that trans rights are human rights,” said Bono.
For Alma, shopping at Marsha’s Closet gave her more than just a new wardrobe.
“This place brings me my confidence and brings me joy. They came in the room, and they just told me how beautiful I was. Amazing. It's awesome. They just made me feel welcomed and loved,” said Alma.
Wearing a dress for the first time made Alma even more excited to honor the woman who inspires her most.
“I actually got my name from my beautiful grandmother. She's a strong, independent woman, and I take all my style, my confidence, everything is from her. And that's why I chose her name,” said Alma.
Alma is now hoping more people, especially trans youth, get the chance to find a place like Marsha’s Closet.
“There's so much need for places like this because, like I said, everyone here makes you feel welcomed,” said Alma.
These closets are starting to pop up across the country to help trans youth find acceptance and improve their mental health.
Universities in California, Arizona, Texas, Nebraska, West Virginia, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey opened closets in just the last couple of years.
“I really view gender-affirming clothing as suicide prevention,” said Bono.
Studies have shown having a gender-affirming safe space does lower suicide attempts in trans youth. The most recent study by the Trevor Project, a non-profit working to reduce LGBTQ+ suicide, showed these supportive spaces dropped suicide attempts by 25%.
That’s why Bono and her team here are reaching out to help open more closets across the country. Because as these resources grow, they know, so will support from the community.
“They just give me the confidence that I can make a change in the world myself, too, and if I know I can do it, then I know anyone could do it, too,” said Alma.
The Transgender Center of the Rockies is holding a Transgender Day of Visibility celebration on Friday, April 1 2022 in Denver, Colorado. The entire community is invited to join.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The city is working to help people and families looking for affordable rental housing options.
The city’s Housing and Community Development Department plans to consolidate options into a single website.
The website will eventually allow landlords to post available rental property. The city said the website will make it easier for people and families to find affordable housing.
Supporters hope the site will help decrease the number of houseless families across the city, including homeless teenagers and children.
The city hopes to have the website up and running by late summer or early fall.
This is one of a number of changes Kanas City, Missouri leaders have implemented recently to decrease homelessness across the city, including a plan to create thousands of new affordable housing units in five-years.
The city distributed more than $20 million in emergency rental assistance to 4,400 households across the city. The city also turned two former hotels into permanent housing and emergency transitional housing for homelessness.
Advocates worked with city leaders to enact an extreme weather plan that makes sure people have places to stay when temperatures drop to dangerous cold levels.

Aker Carbon Capture and SINTEF Expand Collaboration to Develop Next-Generation CCUS Technology
OSLO, Norway, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Aker Carbon Capture and SINTEF have entered into a strategic collaboration agreement, with the goal of further developing carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) technology to reduce CO2 emissions from industry and energy solutions. This is a vital part of the green transition in Norway.
"Aker and SINTEF have collaborated for more than 25 years, and have been pioneers of CCUS, which represents a vital solution for our ability to reach net-zero emissions. With this agreement, we accelerate the transfer of science and research to innovation in the market," said Alexandra Bech Gjørv, CEO of SINTEF.
"Establishing the right partnerships is a critical component of our strategy and we are pleased to further strengthen our collaboration with SINTEF to develop new innovative solutions to curb CO2 emissions," said Valborg Lundegaard, CEO of Aker Carbon Capture.
CCUS - an indispensable tool
CCUS refers to a series of technologies for capturing CO2 and utilizing or storing it safely deep underground. Both the International Energy Agency (IEA) and United Nations (IPCC) consider CCUS to be crucial for reducing CO2 emissions and limiting global warming to under 1.5˚C.
"CCUS is an indispensable tool for achieving global climate goals. As a technology, it has risen from nice to have to need to have," said Nils Røkke, EVP Sustainability at SINTEF.
A strategic interaction to establish more CCUS projects
The agreement represents a strategic interaction on a non-exclusive basis, with the goal to speed up and make available CCUS more widespread. There will be actions to establish more CCUS projects, particularly in the field of CO2 capture.
Through the collaboration, the parties will explore opportunities to develop new capture technologies, share knowledge, and collaborate more closely to generate and follow-up on new ideas.
Establishing a common framework for collaboration will remove barriers and bureaucracy, thereby enabling SINTEF and Aker Carbon Capture to collaborate quickly and efficiently.
A valuable long-term partnership
Aker Carbon Capture and SINTEF have a long history of collaboration. SINTEF has worked with Aker companies for over 25 years in the field of this specific climate technology, which demonstrates the value of long-term partnerships.
Most notably, the parties developed a solvent-based capture technology together with the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) as part of the eight-year SOLVit program. Aker Carbon Capture is today a leading provider of a proprietary, amine-based carbon capture technology, which is being deployed in the Norwegian full-scale CCUS project, Langskip (Longship).
"A partnership with SINTEF and access to their significant testing infrastructure and knowledge of CCUS and enabling technologies, will not only allow Aker Carbon Capture to continue to improve our existing technology portfolio, but also enable us to collaboratively identify the next generation CCUS technology and bring it to the market. Through a strategic collaboration we can challenge each other to accelerate the development of new solutions," said Jim Stian Olsen, Chief Technology Officer of Aker Carbon Capture.
Through the Norwegian CCS Research Centre (NCCS), SINTEF and its partners have contributed both knowledge and research to Langskip.
"To meet the goals of the Paris Agreement and Norwegian climate ambitions, we need to continue the joint efforts to cut costs, reduce risk, and scale up CCS technologies. Research, development, and innovation efforts done in cooperation between universities, research institutions, and industry actors like Aker Carbon Capture are essential," said NCCS Director Mona Mølnvik.
About Aker Carbon Capture and SINTEF
Aker Carbon Capture is a pure-play carbon capture company with solutions, services and technologies that serve a range of industries with carbon emissions, including the cement, bio- and waste-to-energy, gas-to-power, and blue hydrogen segments.

BOSTON — Sitting in his downtown Boston, Massachusetts apartment, Allan Hodges has a view of the city that seems to go on forever. As the 83-year-old retired urban planner slowly makes his way through a new piece of classical music he’s learning on the piano, he quickly opens up about what it’s like trying to find happiness in the later years of life.
“I think one of the dangers of becoming old is becoming lonely,“ he admits.
Hodges' wife suddenly passed away from cancer a few years ago, which forced him to suddenly start over at an age when most Americans have long settled into the comfort of their golden years.
“We don’t have children, so our friends are very important to me,” he added.
Hodges is among the estimated 54.1 million people in this country over the age of 65, many of whom are starting to discover the importance of remaining at home.
After Hodges his wife passed away, he joined what’s known as a Senior Village.
“It’s just been a great way to meet new people,” Hodges said.
Unlike a traditional nursing home or retirement community, there are no physical building residents live in. Instead, they live in their own homes with various support systems in place.
Stephen Roop and his wife Barbara are also members of the Beacon Hill Village, the same one Allan Hodges belongs to.
“It isn’t just the physical place, it’s the neighborhood, it’s the people it’s the connections,” Stephen Roop said.
It’s a concept that’s fairly simple. Members pay a few hundred dollars a year to belong to the village. In return, they get access to a myriad of resources to help them age in place. From a packed calendar of social events to a network of volunteers who help with transportation to the grocery store or doctor’s appointments.
Barbara Hughes Sullivan oversees the Village to Village Network. An organization made up of about 280 villages nationwide with another 80 in the works.
“Sometimes it just helps with things you take for granted but can’t do anymore. Getting on a ladder to change a light bulb,” she said.
“Whether you are 50 years old or 80 years old, you want a sense of purpose and villages do that,” she added.
Hughes Sullivan says many older Americans are turning away from the traditional idea of a nursing home as they need care, especially after the pandemic.
“The pandemic showed us that even in residential living facilities it was scary,” she said.
Back at Allan Hodges' condo in downtown Boston, he’s picked up piano lessons again. He says he is finding comfort and company in a new hobby.
His hope is to remain here at home for as long as he can.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. State Department announced a historic evolution when it comes to official identity documents.
Citizens will be allowed to select an X as their gender on passport applications beginning next month, and that’s just the beginning.
The State Department described the decision as a milestone as it works to serve citizens, regardless of their gender identity.
As of last year applicants are no longer required to submit medical documentation when their selected gender differed from other identity documents, such as a birth certificate or drivers license.
“Starting on April 11, U.S. citizens will be able to select an X as their gender marker on their U.S. passport application, and the option will become available for other forms of documentation next year,” Anthony Blinken, Secretary of State, said.
The State Department is the first federal government agency to offer the X identity option on an identity document. It will be used for those who identity as non-binary, intersex, gender non-conforming, and others.
“We continue to work closely with our federal government partners to ensure as smooth a travel experience as possible for all passport holders, regardless of their gender identity,” Blinken said.
Information on how to apply for a new passport with the new X gender marker option has been updated on the State Department‘s travel website.

Sen. Lindsey Graham said Thursday that he will not support Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The Republican senator's decision is not unexpected. During Jackson's confirmation hearing, Graham was among the Republicans who were vocal in their criticism of Jackson's sentencing of child porn offenders.
"If you're on the internet trolling for images of children and sexual exploitation. So, so you don't think that's a bad thing, I think that's a horrible thing," Graham said as he continually cut off Jackson as she attempted to explain how she sentences people.
Graham claimed Thursday that Jackson lacks "steady judicial philosophy."
Despite his decision to vote no on her confirmation, Graham praised Jackson on a personal level.
"I find Judge Jackson to be a person of exceptionally good character, respected by her peers, and someone who has worked hard to achieve her current position," he said.
Most Republicans are expected to oppose Jackson's nomination. However, she will get support from at least one member of the GOP.
Sen. Susan Collins of Maine said Wednesday that she will vote to confirm Jackson.
If confirmed by the full Senate, Jackson will become the first Black woman to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court. | https://www.wsfltv.com/news/national/sen-lindsay-graham-to-oppose-judge-jacksons-nomination-to-supreme-court | 2022-03-31T16:04:13 | en | 0.981077 |

Tornadoes are touching down in areas that historically don’t commonly see them, now research is showing that Tornado Alley may be shifting, and scientists are trying to figure out why.
Neighborhoods in Round Rock, Texas have houses that have been destroyed after a tornado caused an estimated $32 million in damages.
“I heard a loud bang and crash,” said Linda Stevens, who has lived in Round Rock since 1993. “I went and got a couple cushions and made my way to the bathroom to get into the tub when all the noise suddenly stopped. I came outside and opened the front door, and it was a total disaster everywhere.”
Stevens is forced to stay in an apartment.
“Everything has to be moved out, and that’s what we’re doing today,” Stevens said. “I have never seen a tornado here. I feel like things are getting worse. We hear more and more about these weather disasters; they seem to be going to areas that just don’t generally have that.”
While Round Rock is just on the edge of Tornado Alley, the National Weather Service in Austin and San Antonio said that they aren’t necessarily rare, but they are very uncommon in that area.
“The number of tornadoes in this area varies from year-to-year,” said Jason Runyen, with the NWS. “Some years, we only get a few and others we can get a couple dozen.”
The tornadoes are sparking concern of Tornado Alley shifting, or as Runyen would describe it as the original Tornado Alley slowing down in frequencies while the southeast is ramping up.
“Traditionally, we have tornado alley in the central plains, and another cluster of tornadoes form over the mid and deep south,” Runyen said.
Research by the NOAA shows that more tornadoes have been turning up in the southeast in the last 15 years. A map shows that frequencies of tornadoes have been declining in Tornado Alley while there have been higher frequencies of tornadoes in the southeast.
“Is there a link to climate change? That’s what is being debated right now,” Runyen said. “And if climate change has to do with it, what degree is it playing a role? There is more distribution of tornadoes in the deep south and those are the factors that are being debated right now.”
According to atmospheric scientists from Purdue University, not only are the frequencies in the southeast increasing, but the studies have shown that they are more destructive. The research also explained that the dry air predominantly in the west triggers moist air and severe storms in the east causing Tornado Alley to shift.
The NWS is now warning those living in the southeast to prepare accordingly.
“If you’re moving to that area, you’d ought to think about tornado shelters,” Runyen said. “If you’re building a new home, build on that has been reinforced with a safe room in the home. Those are some things people can think about.” | https://www.wsfltv.com/news/national/the-shift-in-tornado-alley | 2022-03-31T16:04:19 | en | 0.977886 |
NEW YORK, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The global anti-ageing cosmetics market size is expected to reach USD 76.91 Billion in 2030 and register a revenue CAGR of 5.7% over the forecast period, according to the latest report by Reports and Data. Lifestyle changes, social standing and advancement in cosmetology are driving anti-ageing cosmetics market revenue growth.
Key factor driving expansion of anti-ageing cosmetics market is the rise in consumer demand for anti-ageing remedies, which coincides with improving lifestyle standards and affluence among global population. According to the United Nations report, the total population of people aged 40 to 59 was around 17,83,309 in 2019 and is expected to reach 20,46,991 by 2030. Preventive ageing treatments are expected to be adopted by this age group. According to the 2019 International Society of Plastic Surgery (ISPAS) report, 1,582,296 people aged 51 to 64 years old had botulinum toxin operations around the world.
Anti-ageing treatments is expected to have a domino effect on people. With state-of-the-art anti-ageing treatments available all around the world, the market has observed steep growth. With better treatment available, people can be more confident about themselves which in turn is boosts their self-esteem and mental health. However, certain factors such as high cost of anti-ageing products, as well as presence of counterfeit products containing toxic substances, present significant barrier to market growth. Customers are mainly afraid of health hazards that come with poorly reviewed, cheap or counterfeit cosmetics.
Some Key Highlights From the Report
- In January 2022, Suneva Medical Inc., which sells beauty and anti-ageing solutions to doctors and medical practitioners merged with Viveon Health Acquisition Corp. The merger capitalized Suneva Medical, which expects to grow by manufacturing hair restoration products.
- Hair use segment revenue is expected to register high growth rate during the forecast period. Hair care serums and oral supplements are main contributors driving revenue growth of the segment. With changes in food habits and increase in pollution level, many people are suffering from more hair problems. Men and women, particularly in urban areas are purchasing hair care products to look younger and fitter for longer period of time.

- Sun care segment is expected to register high growth rate during the forecast period. Demand for sun care anti-ageing lotions has been continuously increasing as a result of climate change and increased UV penetration from the sun. Demand for such products is expected to increase during the forecast period due to changing climate.
- Cosmetic stores accounted for significant revenue share in 2020. Cosmetic stores have made cosmetics more accessible and widely available. They provide cosmetics of all price range and brands to public with added discounts, which is driving growth of the segment.
- Market in Asia Pacific accounted for significant revenue share in 2020 due to the presence of larger number of geriatric populations. In countries like South Korea, Japan and China, the younger and middle-aged generations are increasingly using products that can prevent and eliminate early-ageing signs like hair greying and the appearance of lines and wrinkles on face. Additionally, increased product availability, as well as availability of a variety of domestic and international cosmetic brands online is driving market growth in the region.

Firefighters are trying to get control of a wildfire near the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee.
Officials say the fire, which broke out Wednesday, has already burned more than 1,000 acres.
Parts of Sevier County are under mandatory evacuation orders.
However, people who live in Gatlinburg have been allowed to return home after briefly being forced to evacuate.
"The fire in these areas has been extinguished," the Sevier County Emergency Management Agency said in a statement on Facebook.
CNN reports that at least one person has been injured in the fire. The extent of their injuries has not been made public.
It's not clear what caused the fire, which has been fueled by high winds. | https://www.wsfltv.com/news/national/wildfire-prompts-evacuations-near-great-smoky-mountains-national-park-in-tennesse | 2022-03-31T16:04:26 | en | 0.982507 |

Lessons of Love from Ringo, Paul Help CEO Urge Love for All
SALT LAKE CITY, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Mar. 31, 2022 – Drawing on first-hand experiences of love and respect from Ringo Starr, a best-selling author, musician and CEO is calling on others to show more love to everyone.
"April 2 is national 'Love Our Children Day' and it's a perfect reminder to show love and respect to everyone we encounter from adults to children," said Kevin Guest, chairman and CEO of USANA Health Sciences (NYSE: USNA), and author of All the Right Reasons, 12 Timeless Principles for Living a Life in Harmony.
A few years ago, Guest was backstage before a Ringo Starr concert with a group of fans waiting to meet the world-famous Beatles' drummer.
"Other fans were nervous, and the lady next to me was hyperventilating because she was about to meet an idol – one of the Beatles," Guest said. "When Ringo arrived, I was first in line, and he smiled, gave me a big hug, and talked to me while looking directly at me. He focused on me and made me feel loved and respected, like I was important. That is a feeling I will never forget."
Years earlier, Guest saw Paul McCartney on stage for a pre-concert soundcheck and noticed that Paul went to every band and crew member, hugging them and asking how they were.
"I could tell Paul knew them personally and cared about them," he said. "Those acts of love and kindness by two of the world's most famous musicians give a remarkable lesson for us all. In this day when so much is in turmoil, we need to show love and respect for others around us."
In All the Right Reasons, Guest cites the Dorothy Principle, which puts relationships at the top of the priority list.
"People have told me the Dorothy Principle has made an instant impact on their lives," said Guest, who leads USANA globally. "I learned long ago that treating others with the utmost respect and kindness is a key to success and makes life more harmonious for everyone."
To illustrate the Dorothy Principle, Guest writes, "On a pop quiz, a college professor asked: 'What is the name of the woman who cleans this building?' and emphasized that nothing is more important than relationships.
"The class was blank but soon learned the cleaning lady's name was Dorothy, so I have dubbed that value the Dorothy Principle and have tried to put relationships first in everything I do."
At the billion-dollar USANA Health Sciences, now spread to 24 markets worldwide, Guest applies the same principle.
"I urge all of our associates domestically and internationally to treat others politely with kindness," he said. "Learn their names, acknowledge them as you pass by, and step outside of your own issues to be genuinely respectful to everyone."
Guest believes those simple patterns of behavior can make us all more civil and lift each other to higher levels of harmony in life. A famous musician agrees.
"I've never seen Kevin make a selfish decision," said country music star Collin Raye, who frequently invites Guest to play with his band on tour, including multiple times at the Grand Ole Opry. "He thinks of his family, his friends, and his associates at USANA and always tries to put others first."
All the Right Reasons: 12 Timeless Principles for Living a Life in Harmony is available on Amazon. All proceeds feed hungry children, with each book purchase providing 40 meals.

BOARDWALKTECH SECURES KEY CONTRACT WITH A GLOBAL BANKING/FINANCIAL SERVICES COMPANY
Enterprise-wide program to improve information management, compliance, and business processes
CUPERTINO, Calif., March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - (TSXV: BWLK) (OTCQB: BWLKF) Boardwalktech Software Corp ("Boardwalktech" or the "Company"), the leading Digital Ledger low-code application platform and enterprise software applications company, is pleased to announce it has signed a long-term contract with one of the world's largest banking and financial services companies based in New York. The Client plans to deploy the Boardwalk Velocity product across its global enterprise with a focus on compliance, risk, data management, and business process improvement. Net proceeds from this contract are expected to exceed US$4 million over the first three years (subject to a standard acceptance period) and should increase in subsequent years as this platform is adopted and deployed globally across the Client's banking and financial services business units.
The Company and Client plan to rapidly implement the Velocity product running on the Boardwalk Digital Ledger Platform, to transform, automate, manage, and improve business processes with a focus on compliance for and remediation of Microsoft Excel-based end user computing applications (EUC's). By transforming and automating these EUC's on Velocity without having to re-platform or write a single line of code, the Client will be able to quickly transform this data and their Excel applications into a fully compliant environment. Velocity gives enterprises the ability to govern, monitor and audit all changes in real time - which is only possible because of automatic, low-code data and workflow auditability through our patented Boardwalk Digital Ledger. While the financial service market is on track to be the first segment to deploy Velocity, the features and benefits are expected to be recognized and adopted by other targeted markets for Boardwalktech.
"This contract is our first in the banking industry and came to us from one of our existing partners. Our new Client, after trying legacy solutions from its vendor partners and software companies/platforms over the past few years, has been unable to transform these EUCs at scale. Our Velocity solution and its automation technology was able to directly meet the requirements of the Client to rapidly transform these existing EUC's while meeting the needs of both end users and more importantly the Bank's compliance initiatives," said Andrew T. Duncan, CEO of Boardwalktech. "This contract, coming from such a global and technologically leading financial services company, validates the effectiveness of our unique platform and propels us as a technology solution provider across the entire financial services industry for compliance and data management. This contract is the beginning of a transformation within the banking industry, and it is our Company's belief that Boardwalk's Digital Ledger platform and Velocity will become the gold standard for compliance and remediation needs in other financial institutions."

New data demonstrate BRII-835 (VIR-2218) was well tolerated with notable reductions in serum HBsAg observed in the Chinese patients infected with chronic hepatitis B
DURHAM, N.C. and BEIJING, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Brii Biosciences Limited ("Brii Bio" or the "Company", stock code: 2137.HK) a multi-national company developing innovative therapies for diseases with significant unmet medical needs and large public health burdens, today presented new data from a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of BRII-835 (VIR-2218) in Chinese patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, at the 31st Conference of Asian Pacific Association for the Study of the Liver (APASL) 2022, taking place virtually from March 30 to April 3 in Seoul, South Korea.
The data demonstrate that BRII-835 (VIR-2218), an investigational small interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) that mediates RNA interference (RNAi), results in dose-dependent reduction in hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in Chinese patients with chronic HBV infection who received two doses of BRII-835 (VIR-2218). Similar HBsAg reductions were observed in both HBeAg- and HBeAg+ patients. In addition, BRII-835 (VIR-2218) was well-tolerated, with all treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) reported as mild or moderate, and no clinically significant alanine transaminase (ALT) elevations were observed.
"The dose-dependent reduction in serum HBsAg observed in both HBeAg- and HBeAg+ Chinese chronic HBV patients in this trial after two doses of BRII-835 (VIR-2218) is consistent with previous findings demonstrated in other racial/ethnic groups," said Dr. Jidong Jia, Professor of Medicine at the Liver Research Centre, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University in Beijing, China. "Supported by these data, we believe that novel agents like BRII-835 (VIR-2218) that effectively reduce the high HBV antigen burden has the potential to be the cornerstone of functional cure regimens for patients with chronic HBV infection, thereby facilitating the elimination of this major global public health threat."
"As part of our goal to develop a functional cure for chronic HBV , we are pleased that the data from this trial continue to support the potential of siRNA as the backbone of combination treatment regimens that are being evaluated in several ongoing trials," said Li Yan, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Brii Bio. "We look forward to seeing more data later this year from these trials in which BRII-835 (VIR-2218) is being investigated in combination with other agents."
Abstract Number: L-OP-1324
Oral Presentation Title: Safety and antiviral activity of two monthly administrations of BRII-835 (VIR-2218), an X-targeting RNAi therapeutic, in Chinese patients with chronic HBV infection
Presenter: Jidong Jia, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Medicine at Capital Medical University and Director of the Liver Research Centre at Beijing Friendship Hospital in Beijing, China
- BRII-835 (VIR-2218) was well-tolerated in 16 virally-suppressed Chinese patients with non-cirrhotic chronic HBV infection assigned to receive two doses of monthly subcutaneous injection of BRII-835
- 12 weeks post last dose, the mean reductions in HBsAg observed in patients who received 50 mg and 100 mg doses of BRII-835 were 1.02 log10 IU/mL and 1.22 log10 IU/mL for HBeAg- patients and 0.70 log10 IU/mL and 1.15 log10 IU/mL for HBeAg+ patients, respectively
- In all patients achieving HBsAg decline > 1 log10 IU/mL at 12 weeks post last dose, serum HBsAg remained below baseline through Week 48
About BRII-835 (VIR-2218)
BRII-835 (VIR-2218) is an investigational subcutaneously administered HBV-targeting siRNA that has the potential to stimulate an effective immune response and has direct antiviral activity against HBV. It is the first siRNA in the clinic to include Enhanced Stabilization Chemistry Plus (ESC+) technology to enhance stability and minimize off-target activity, which potentially can result in an increased therapeutic index. Brii Bio licensed exclusive rights to develop and commercialize VIR-2218 for the greater China territory from Vir Biotechnology, Inc. ("Vir") in 2020.
Meanwhile, BRII-835 (VIR-2218) is being investigated in three additional Phase 2 studies, sponsored by Brii and Vir, respectively, in combinations with BRII-179 (a recombinant therapeutic vaccine), PEG-IFN-alpha and/or VIR-3434 (a monoclonal antibody targeting HBV) as a functional cure regimen for chronic HBV infection.
About Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B is one of the world's most significant infectious disease threats, infected more than 290 million people globally and more than 70 millions in China. HBV infection is the leading cause of liver disease, and, with current treatments, it is very difficult to cure, and many patients develop liver cancers. An estimated 780,000 people die each year from complications of chronic HBV, such as liver decompensation and hepatocellular carcinoma.

NEW YORK, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Dogs and cats may be exposed in their homes to a potentially toxic group of chemicals, with their discovery in the pets' stool being a sign of health issues for humans living with them, a new study shows.
Called aromatic amines, the chemicals — found in tobacco smoke and in dyes used in cosmetics, textiles, and plastics — are known to cause cancer. Notably, the study revealed that tobacco smoke was not a major source of pet exposure, suggesting that the latter products were likely the main culprits.
Led by researchers at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, the study identified eight types of aromatic amines in stool samples collected from dozens of dogs and cats. It also found traces of the chemicals in more than 38% of urine samples taken from a separate group of pets.
"Our findings suggest that pets are coming into contact with aromatic amines that leach from products in their household environment," says study lead author Sridhar Chinthakindi, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow at NYU Langone Health. "As these substances have been tied to bladder, colorectal, and other forms of cancer, our results may help explain why so many dogs and cats develop such diseases."
He adds that the results suggest that, aside from such direct exposures, pets are likely indirectly exposed. For example, past research has shown that a common flea control medication called amitraz can be broken down into an aromatic amine called 2,6-dimethylaniline by microbes living in animals' digestive systems. This was the most common aromatic amine detected in the new study, accounting for almost 70 percent of those found in dogs and nearly 80 percent of those found in cats.
The study authors' previous investigations have measured other hormone-disrupting chemicals, including phthalates, melamine, and bisphenols in pet urine. However, the new study, published online March 30 in the journal Environment International, is the first designed to explore pet exposure to aromatic amines in the household, according to Chinthakindi.
For the investigation, the research team collected urine samples from 42 dogs and 21 cats living in private households, veterinary hospitals, and animal shelters in Albany, NY. They also collected fecal samples from another 77 pets living in the same region. They recorded all of the animals' ages, breeds, and sexes. Then, the research team analyzed the samples for evidence of 30 different kinds of aromatic amines and nicotine.
Among the findings were that cats had at least triple the concentrations of aromatic amines in their urine as dogs, although the study authors say both greater exposure and differences in metabolism between the two species likely play a role in the concentrations of the chemicals found. Notably, cats do not break down many compounds as efficiently as dogs.
The investigation also showed little difference in aromatic amine exposure between animals that lived at home compared with those that lived in a shelter or those that were staying at a veterinary hospital. According to Chinthakindi, this highlights how commonly these substances appear and how difficult they are to avoid.
"Since pets are smaller and more sensitive to toxins, they serve as excellent 'canaries in the coal mine' for assessing chemical risks to human health," says study senior author Kurunthachalam Kannan, PhD, a professor in the Department of Pediatrics at NYU Langone. "If they are getting exposed to toxins in our homes, then we had better take a closer look at our own exposure."
Kannan, also a professor in NYU Langone's Center for Investigation of Environmental Hazards, cautions that it remains unclear what aromatic amine levels can be safely tolerated by pets, and so far, no limit has been set by regulatory organizations for their protection.
He adds that the study authors next plan to explore the link between aromatic amine exposure and bladder, thyroid, and testicular cancer in pets.
Funding for the study was provided by National Institutes of Health grant U2C ES026542.

Market Dynamics
- Driver
The growing need for surgical procedures is one of the key drivers supporting the custom procedure packs market growth. The rising prevalence of chronic diseases can be attributed to the changes in lifestyles and eating habits. Meanwhile, burns are long-term injuries and are a challenging clinical issue. The treatment for burns includes skin transplantation and using skin substitutes. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), between 2015-2019, around 550,000 people globally died due to fire, heat, and hot substances. Around 37 million people were disabled and required medical treatment. These factors are likely to boost the demand for custom procedure packs for cosmetic surgeries during the forecast period. Thus, the growing need for surgical procedures will positively impact the growth of the global custom procedure packs market during the forecast period.
- Challenge
The high cost of healthcare is one of the factors hindering the custom procedure packs market growth. For instance, in 2019, the per capita healthcare expenditure was $7,138 in Switzerland, $6,748 in Norway, and $6,731 in Germany. The high cost of healthcare in these developed countries prevents patients from opting for surgical treatment options for cardiovascular diseases, bone-related diseases, diabetes, obesity, and cancer. Additionally, in developing countries such as India, China, Brazil, and Argentina, patients cannot avail themselves of surgical treatment due to a lack of resources and low per capita income. The absence of proper healthcare infrastructure and less amount of government aid received in the form of medical expense reimbursement further poses a challenge for the patients in these countries. Thus, such factors will negatively impact the growth of the global custom procedure packs market during the forecast period.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the custom procedure packs market in the region. However, in H2 2021, the number of COVID-19 cases in the region decreased due to the introduction of vaccines. This led to the resumption of elective procedures and surgeries in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. Thus, the regional demand for custom procedure packs has rebounded. Such factors are expected to drive the growth of the regional market during the forecast period.

Ketamine Wellness Centers (KWC) Opens Locations in Salt Lake City and Reno with More on the Way, Adds FDA-Approved SPRAVATO® to Treatment Options
Survey by The Harris Poll for Delic Finds Majority of Affected Americans Approve of Psychedelics as an Alternative Treatment to Address Anxiety, Depression and PTSD
VANCOUVER, BC, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Delic Holdings Corp ("DELIC" or the "Company") (CSE: DELC) (OTCQB: DELCF) (FRA: 6X0), a leader in new medicines and treatments for a modern world, is pleased to share the following corporate update:
- Delic currently has 13 clinics operational today with more state-of-the-art clinics opening in the next 18 months. The most recent clinic openings include KWC Salt Lake City on January 10 and KWC Reno on March 7.
- KWC added SPRAVATO® (esketamine), the first FDA-approved nasal spray, as a treatment option at the Houston, Las Vegas and Seattle locations for adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and depressive symptoms in adults with major depressive disorder (MDD).
- Delic Labs received Health Canada 56 exemptions to perform research and develop IP for MDMA, LSD, DMT, mescaline, 2C-B, and to acquire 60 grams of psilocybin mushrooms from Nectar Health Sciences Laboratory Division Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Psilobrain Therapeutics Inc.
- Delic Corp released the findings of its first-ever survey on U.S. attitudes towards psychedelics conducted by The Harris Poll and found a majority of Americans who suffer from anxiety/depression/PTSD (65%) believe that psychedelic medicine (i.e., ketamine, psilocybin and MDMA) should be made available to patients with treatment-resistant anxiety, depression or PTSD. Almost two-thirds (63%) of Americans who have used prescription medications to treat anxiety/depression/PTSD say that while the medication helped, they still experienced residual feelings of anxiety, depression or PTSD; while 83% of Americans experiencing anxiety, depression or PTSD would be open to pursuing alternative treatments proven to be more effective than prescription medication with fewer side effects. *
Delic continued to accelerate its expansion plans through the opening of two new Ketamine Wellness Centers (KWC) in the first quarter of 2022. KWC Salt Lake City officially opened its doors on January 10 making it the first KWC clinic in Utah. The 2,500 square foot KWC Reno clinic opened on March 7 and became the Company's second clinic in Nevada (the other location is in Las Vegas) and serves local patients and patients in larger California markets who do not have access to affordable in-state providers. The launch of these two new locations brings the total number of clinics for the Company to 13 with more state-of-the-art clinics opening in the next 18 months.
KWC also increased its offering by adding SPRAVATO® (esketamine) nasal spray as a treatment option. Taken with an oral antidepressant, SPRAVATO is the first FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray for adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) or to treat depressive symptoms in adults with major depressive disorder (MDD) with suicidal thoughts or actions. The KWC clinics located in Houston, Las Vegas and Seattle will begin offering SPRAVATO as a treatment option beginning April 1.
Delic Labs continued to expand on their ability to research novel compounds and develop IP for future commercialization with the addition of a Health Canada 56 exemptions for MDMA, LSD, DMT, mescaline, 2C-B, and to acquire 60 grams of psilocybin mushrooms from Nectar Health Sciences Laboratory Division Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Psilobrain Therapeutics Inc. These 56 exemptions are in addition to the one they hold for chemistry analytics on psilocybin mushrooms. Last October, Delic Labs also applied for a Dealer's License to commercialize its psilocybin research and associated IP for medical and research purposes.
Matt Stang, Co-founder and CEO of Delic, commented: "Based on our survey results, the majority of affected Americans believe that psychedelic medicine should be made available to patients with treatment-resistant anxiety, depression or PTSD. Our mission to make these new, science-backed medicines accessible and affordable to a greater number of people suffering from these conditions is more urgent than ever. The opening of the KWC Salt Lake City and Reno locations and the addition of FDA-approved SPRAVATO as a treatment option means we can serve more patients than any other ketamine provider in the U.S. With its latest Health Canada 56 exemptions, Delic Labs continues to lead the industry on the research of these novel psychedelic compounds and development of IP for future commercialization. Delic is opening doors to a future with more effective medicines for a variety of mental health conditions with longer lasting benefits and less side effects."

VANCOUVER, BC, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Elevation Gold Mining Corp. (TSXV: ELVT) (OTCQX: EVGDF) (the "Company" or "Elevation Gold") is pleased to provide an update on the Company's multi-phase infill and resource expansion drilling program at the Moss Mine in northwestern Arizona (see Figure 1: Moss Project Drilling Location ). Results discussed include those from infill drilling below and to the east of the active East Pit (see Figure 2: Drillhole Location Map).
Michael G. Allen, President of Elevation Gold, stated "The East Pit continues to show excellent grades over good thicknesses, below and along strike of the existing operation, as well as in areas between pits that had previously been modelled as waste. The deposit remains open along strike and down dip, highlighting the potential to expand resources at the Moss Mine."
Recent Moss Mine Drilling Highlights
Drilling beneath the eastern edge of the East Pit intersected stockwork and vein-hosted epithermal gold-silver mineralization down to depths of between 55 meters and 205 meters below the current mining surface and up to 130 meters along strike to the east of the active East Pit.
- Drillhole AR-544R intersected 3.05 meters grading 5.04 g/t gold and 15.80 g/t silver in the Ruth Vein approximately 145 meters below the current surface and approximately 130 meters east of the East Pit.
- Drillhole AR21-457C intersected 31.06 meters grading 0.51 g/t gold and 3.46 g/t silver, including 9.36 meters grading 1.01 g/t gold and 7.03 g/t silver in the Moss Vein approximately 140 meters below the base of the East Pit.
- Drillhole AR21-546R intersected 80.77 meters grading 0.87 g/t gold and 9.56 g/t silver, including 4.57 meters grading 9.65 g/t gold and 64.53 g/t silver in stockwork mineralization from a depth of 100 meters below the eastern edge of the East Pit.
- Drillhole AR21-475C intersected 29.29 meters grading 1.90 g/t gold and 17.05 g/t silver, including 14.11 meters grading 3.69 g/t gold and 33.37 g.t silver and 1.62 meters grading 27.30 g/t gold and 202.00 g/t silver in the Ruth Vein; and 1.58 meters grading 6.38 g/t gold and 70.40 g/t silver in the Moss Vein at depths of between 125 meters and 200 meters beneath the East Pit. Note that the drillhole was oriented almost parallel to the Ruth Vein while targeting the Moss Vein at depth. The Ruth Vein intercept in hole AR21-475C should not be considered indicative of the true thickness of mineralization. However, it does show that elevated gold and silver mineralization is present in the Ruth Vein in this part of the deposit.
Elevated gold and silver grades were intersected in the Ruth and Moss Veins and associated hanging wall stockwork down to depths of between 80 meters and 345 meters below the current highwall crest between the Center and East Pits:
- Drillhole AR21-378C intersected 22.28 meters grading 1.18 g/t gold and 11.81 g/t silver, including 4.21 meters grading 4.98 g/t gold and 49.40 g/t silver in the Ruth Vein, and 16.76 meters grading 1.01 g/t gold and 15.24 g/t silver, including 4.57 meters grading 3.20 g/t gold and 47.62 g/t silver in the Moss Vein.
A complete list of the latest results from Elevation Gold's infill and near-mine exploration drilling at the Moss Mine is provided in Table 1.
Warwick S. Board, Vice President, Exploration of Elevation Gold, commented, "The ongoing infill and resource expansion drilling beneath and to the east of the active Moss Mine continues to indicate that the broader epithermal vein and stockwork mineralization system is open at depth and along strike to the east. We look forward to reporting the results of additional systematic drill testing of the Ruth, Moss, and associated stockwork veining in this part of the deposit during the 2022 exploration program."
Ongoing Drilling Program
Infill and near-mine drilling continues at the Moss Mine with two Reverse Circulation (RC) drill rigs currently active. The drilling is aimed at amalgamating and extending the active pits to the east and west by targeting the Moss and Ruth Veins and associated hanging wall stockwork within and adjacent to the mine. Assay results are pending for numerous additional holes drilled as part of the infill and near-mine drilling program and will be released upon receipt and compilation.
East Pit and Eastern Extension Drilling
This tranche of drilling has successfully intersected the Moss and Ruth Veins and associated stockwork to depths of between approximately 50 meters to almost 205 meters beneath the current East Pit mining surface, as well as along a strike length of almost 130 meters extending from the current eastern crest of the East Pit in the Eastern Extension area (see Figure 3: Cross Section: East Extension, Site S). Assay results for fourteen RC drillholes and three diamond core drillholes from three different drilling locations in the East Pit area are included in this news release (see Table 1). Results from this drilling are being used to inform additional drilling beneath the East Pit and in the East Extension area.
Ruth Vein Metallurgical Drilling
Results from the final diamond core drillhole (AR21-378C) drilled as part of the 2020/2021 Ruth vein metallurgical program are presented in Table 1. The drillhole, which was collared approximately 50 meters to the south of the highwall crest between the Center and East Pits, intersected Ruth Vein-, stockwork-, and Moss Vein-hosted mineralization between depths of approximately 80 m and 345 meters below the current mining surface.

EQUITY AND TAX-EQUITY FINANCING WITH MULTIPLE PARTNERS CONTINUES TO SUPPORT GROWTH OF 4 GW OPERATING PORTFOLIO IN NORTH AMERICA
HOUSTON, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ENGIE North America ("ENGIE") announced it has successfully completed Tax-Equity financing for its Iron Star and Priddy wind projects and Equity financing for the portfolio of these assets plus the Hawtree solar project which recently declared commercial operations. Together they total approximately 665 MW.
The two wind projects located in Ford County, Kansas and Mills County, Texas, respectively, are owned by affiliates of ENGIE. The Hawtree project is in Warren County, North Carolina. Leading financial institutions participated in the financing which included long-standing Tax-Equity relationships with Bank of America and Wells Fargo among others and a new relationship with InfraRed Capital Partners (US) ("InfraRed") who provided equity investments for the projects.
A wholly owned ENGIE affiliate is operating the Iron Star, Priddy and Hawtree projects pursuant to long term balance of plant operation and maintenance agreements with the project companies. The projects are part of the more than 4 GW portfolio of renewable energy assets currently managed by the company across North America.
"We are excited to again collaborate with Bank of America and Wells Fargo among others to fund our growing renewables portfolio. We are also happy to be joined by a new equity partner in InfraRed – we are creating long-term relationships that are helping to accelerate the journey to carbon neutrality across the United States." said Eric De Caluwe, Head of Acquisitions, Investments and Financial Advisory (AIFA) for ENGIE North America.
"ENGIE's deep operating experience of renewable projects coupled with our relationships with leading financial institutions such as Bank of America, Wells Fargo and InfraRed provides the strongest foundation possible to meet the need for major expansion of wind, solar and storage capacity across North America," said David Carroll, Chief Renewables Officer, ENGIE North America. "With more than 4,500 MW of renewables in operation or construction in North America, building strong collaborations such as these is a cornerstone of our approach".
There are 62 wind turbines capable of producing 4.8 MW each in commercial operation at the Iron Star project and 63 turbines of the same size operating at the Priddy project. The Hawtree project's installed capacity is equal to 65 MWac. The renewable power that is produced at the projects will be sold under previously agreed long-term Power Purchase Agreements. The three projects will become long-term neighbors and members of their Kansas, Texas and North Carolina communities, diversifying and supporting local economic development and putting Ford, Mills and Warren Counties at the heart of the energy transition.
"Wells Fargo is proud to support large scale renewable energy projects like Iron Star and Priddy" said Philip Hopkins, head of Wells Fargo's Renewable Energy & Environmental Finance group. "Providing expertise and capital to important customers like ENGIE is just one way we are helping accelerate the transition to a lower-carbon economy."
Jack Paris, Head of the Americas for InfraRed Capital Partners, said "We are delighted to invest in Iron Star, Priddy and Hawtree and look forward to building a strong relationship with an experienced and industry leading partner, such as ENGIE. This investment expands our activities in North America and supports our significant growth ambition in the clean energy sector."
The three projects were constructed during 2021 and early 2022 and can produce enough renewable power to meet the needs of around 200,000 average American homes.
