Protests break out at funeral of Iranian woman who died after morals arrest
Protests broke out in western Iran on Saturday at the funeral of a young woman who died after being detained by morality police enforcing strict hijab rules, and security forces used tear gas to disperse demonstrators. Videos posted on social media showed protesters shouting anti-government slogans after gathering in Saqez, hometown of Mahsa Amini.
Protests broke out in western Iran on Saturday at the funeral of a young woman who died after being detained by morality police enforcing strict hijab rules, and security forces used tear gas to disperse demonstrators.
Videos posted on social media showed protesters shouting anti-government slogans after gathering in Saqez, hometown of Mahsa Amini. They came from nearby cities in Iran's Kurdistan province to mourn the 22-year-old who died in a hospital in the capital Tehran on Friday. "Death to the dictator" - a reference to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, chanted the crowd, while some women took off their headscarves. Police were seen firing tear gas and one man was shown on a video with an injury to the head that someone could be heard saying was caused by birdshot. Reuters could not authenticate the videos.
Protests spread to the provincial capital, Sanandaj and continued late into the night. Social media videos showed crowds chanting "Saqez is not alone, it's supported by Sanandaj". Marchers were seen confronting riot police amid the sound of sporadic gunfire. Other posted videos showed youths setting fire to tyres and throwing rocks at riot police across clouds of tear gas. In recent months, rights activists have urged women to publicly remove their veils, a gesture that would risk their arrest for defying the Islamic dress code as the country's hardline rulers crack down on "immoral behaviour".
Videos posted on social media have shown cases of what appeared to be heavy-handed action by morality police units against women who had removed their hijab. INVESTIGATION INTO DEATH
Authorities have launched probes into the death of Amini, but a medical examiner said on Saturday results of forensic tests may take three weeks. Interior Minister Abdolreza Rahmani Fazli told state TV there was no report she was beaten. Police said Amini became ill as she waited with other detained women at a morality police station, rejecting allegations on social media that she was likely beaten. Police released closed-circuit television footage apparently supporting their version of events. Reuters could not authenticate the video, which appeared to have been edited.
Police earlier said Amini had suffered a heart attack after being taken to the station to be "educated". Her relatives have denied she suffered any heart condition. Prominent sports and arts figures posted critical social media comments about Amini's death and protests were held in a Tehran on Friday amid a heavy presence of riot police.
As during past protests, authorities appeared to have restricted mobile internet access in Saqez and nearby areas, social media posts said. Internet blockage observatory NetBlocks reported "a significant internet outage" in Tehran on Friday, linking it to the protests.
Under Iran's sharia, or Islamic law, imposed after the 1979 revolution, women are obliged to cover their hair and wear long, loose-fitting clothes to disguise their figures. Violators face public rebuke, fines or arrest. Decades after the revolution, clerical rulers still struggle to enforce the law, with many women of all ages and backgrounds wearing tight-fitting, thigh-length coats and brightly coloured scarves pushed back to expose plenty of hair.

Soccer-Paul Pogba's brother under investigation in extortion case, source says
Mathias Pogba, the brother of France international Paul Pogba, was placed under formal investigation and ordered to be detained in connection with an extortion case targeting the Juventus midfielder, a judicial source said on Saturday.
- Country:
- France
Mathias Pogba, the brother of France international Paul Pogba, was placed under formal investigation and ordered to be detained in connection with an extortion case targeting the Juventus midfielder, a judicial source said on Saturday. He is being investigated on suspicion of gang-based extortion and participation in a criminal association, the source said.
Four other people who appeared along with Mathias Pogba before a judge on Saturday were also put under formal investigation, with three were ordered to be detained. Mathias has denied the allegations against him in statements posted on social media.
Earlier this month the Paris prosecutor's office opened a judicial probe into allegations by Paul Pogba that he was the target of extortion attempts and threats from an organised gang. Paul, 29, told the Paris prosecution office that he had been the target of extortion by childhood friends since March and had paid 100,000 euros ($99,500) to that group in the spring, judicial sources told Reuters this month.

Senegal's president appoints former economy minister as PM
Political tensions have boiled over Sall's refusal to publicly rule out a third-term presidential bid in 2024. Violent protests erupted in Senegal last year when Ousmane Sonko, Sall's main opponent who came third in the 2019 presidential election, was arrested on rape charges which he denied.
Senegalese President Macky Sall reinstated the post of prime minister on Saturday, appointing a former economy minister to the job two months after a tense legislative election in which Sall's ruling coalition lost its comfortable majority. Amadou Ba, a 61-year-old taxation specialist who has also served as foreign minister, was named as the West African country's prime minister, a statement from the presidency said.
Ba's appointment re-establishes the position of prime minister in the West African country following its abolition in April 2019. "The major priorities that the president has outlined include improving household purchasing power, taming inflation, security, housing, vocational training, employment and entrepreneurship," Ba said on national television after a meeting with Sall on Saturday.
Late on Sunday, the president appointed a new government that included 38 ministers. Key ministers from the previous government including defence, interior, foreign affairs and finance, were maintained. A notable change was Oulimata Sarr, regional director of UN Women, who was appointed minister of economy and planning.
Earlier this week, Senegal's security forces were called to secure a voting process in parliament and hold back rowdy opposition members of parliament who tried to disrupt the election of a new president of the national assembly. The assembly was convening for the first time since July's election. Sall came to power in 2012 after unseating long-time President Abdoulaye Wade. He was elected again in 2019 on promises of large-scale infrastructure expansion as the country is set to start producing oil and natural gas next year.
Much of his second term has been marked by economic hardship - partly stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic and global fallout linked to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Political tensions have boiled over Sall's refusal to publicly rule out a third-term presidential bid in 2024.
Violent protests erupted in Senegal last year when Ousmane Sonko, Sall's main opponent who came third in the 2019 presidential election, was arrested on rape charges which he denied. Sonko was released but many protesters saw his arrest as an attempt by Sall to remove a prominent rival and clear his path for a third term bid.

California enacts law to help LGBTQ military veterans
A new law in California will help military service members who were discharged under “don't ask, don't tell'' policies because of their sexual or gender identities to reestablish their eligibility for Veterans Affairs benefits, Governor Gavin Newsom said Saturday.
“For decades, our bravest heroes, men and women who wore the uniforms of the armed services had to hide who they really were, and many were other than honorably discharged if their sexuality was discovered,” Newsom said in a statement after announcing he had signed the bill.
Gays and lesbians were banned in the military until the 1993 approval of “don't ask, don't tell,” which allowed them to serve only if they did not openly acknowledge their sexual orientation. Rather than helping, advocates say, the policy created more problems. In its entire history, the military dismissed more than 100,000 service members based on their sexual or gender identities — 14,000 of them during “don't ask, don't tell.” Repeal of the law was approved by Congress and then President Barack Obama in late 2010 and took effect nine months later, allowing lesbian, gay and bisexual people to serve openly.
The Department of Defense subsequently created a path for veterans who had been discharged under the policy to receive the full range of veterans' benefits. “But many veterans sadly don't know or can't even access this important process,” Newsom said, adding that some veterans trying to reclaim benefits have had to hire expensive legal counsel and other assistance to navigate the process. “We're taking steps to fix this.” The law will require the California Department of Veteran Affairs to establish the Veterans Discharge Upgrade Grant Program to help advise LGBTQ veterans who were discharged under “don't ask, don't tell” and to help those who qualify to update and correct their records and access veterans' benefits.

Puerto Rico faces hurricane, life threatening floods, as tropical storm Fiona approaches
Heavy rains from Fiona were also due to spread to the Dominican Republican on Sunday and to the Turks and Caicos Islands on Monday night. On Saturday, residents in Puerto Rico were bracing for severe power outages as the island's grid remained fragile after Hurricane Maria in September 2017 caused the largest blackout in U.S. history.
Tropical storm Fiona gained strength on Saturday as it headed toward Puerto Rico, prompting the National Hurricane Center (NHC) to issue a hurricane warning and alerts for "life threatening floods and mudlsides" for the U.S. territory and watches for the U.S. Virgin Islands. One man was found dead in the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, after heavy rains from the massive storm swept away his house in the Basse-Terre district, according to local authorities.
The storm was located about 70 miles (115 km) southeast of St Croix with maximum sustained winds of 60 mph (95 kph) as of late-afternoon, according to NHC. It was expected to become a hurricane on Sunday and into Sunday night, as it moved near Puerto Rico. A storm is considered a Category 1 hurricane when sustained windspeeds reach 74 mph or greater. The island was braced for up to 20-inches (51 cm) of rain and high winds that could bring flooding, mudslides and power outages.
"Hurricane conditions are expected across portions of Puerto Rico Sunday and Sunday night, and are possible across the U.S. Virgin Islands (Saturday night) and Sunday," NHC said. Heavy rains from Fiona were also due to spread to the Dominican Republican on Sunday and to the Turks and Caicos Islands on Monday night.
On Saturday, residents in Puerto Rico were bracing for severe power outages as the island's grid remained fragile after Hurricane Maria in September 2017 caused the largest blackout in U.S. history. In that category 5 storm, 1.5 million customers lost electricity with 80% of power lines knocked out. Authorities have opened about 80 shelters and closed beaches and casinos, and residents were urged to seek shelter. Governor Pedro Pierluisi signed a state of emergency Saturday and warned residents, "We should not underestimate this storm in the least. The government is active and prepared to respond to the emergency."
"We expect that during the night, the winds and rain will intensify," Pierluisi said."We all want the (electric) service to improve, but now what is important is the response, that we are prepared." Abner Gómez, a spokesman for LUMA Energy, operator of the island's power grid, said that the storm will cause outages, "But we will be ready to respond."
"The same thing that happened during Maria is not going to happen here," Gómez said.

Rugby-Late Marx try earns Boks bonus-point win in Buenos Aires
The visitors' scores came via a penalty try, one each for scrumhalf Jaden Hendrikse and centre Damian de Allende, and two for Marx. South Africa dominated the first half with their power-game and led 22-6 at the break, but they were given a scare in the second period, when Argentina roared back in the final 15 minutes and took the score to 22-20 before the Boks pulled away once more.
South Africa hooker Malcolm Marx scored a try in the final minute to secure a 36-20 bonus-point victory over Argentina at Estadio Libertadores de America in Buenos Aires on Saturday and keep the Springboks in the Rugby Championship title hunt.
The win lifts the Springboks to 14 points in the table, level with New Zealand. They host Argentina in their final clash in Durban next weekend while the All Blacks are at home to Australia. The visitors' scores came via a penalty try, one each for scrumhalf Jaden Hendrikse and centre Damian de Allende, and two for Marx.
South Africa dominated the first half with their power-game and led 22-6 at the break, but they were given a scare in the second period, when Argentina roared back in the final 15 minutes and took the score to 22-20 before the Boks pulled away once more. The home side were also awarded a penalty try to go with a score for centre Matias Moroni.
"To come here is very hard. Argentines are very passionate people and they take pride in their rugby. For us to get a bonus point was special," Bok captain Siya Kolisi said at the post-match presentation. "Argentina played really well, it was a great battle. It has been tough for us and we had to pull together as a group."
It was a classic example of a game of two halves, and South Africa should really have been further ahead on the scoreboard at the break. Every time they used their muscular forwards they made yards and forced Argentina into conceding penalties, but when they ran the ball along the backline, they made unforced errors that released the pressure.
The Boks were awarded a penalty try midway through the half when Argentine flyhalf Santiago Carreras failed to get back onside having made a tackle on Canan Moodie and prevented Hendrikse from dotting down in the corner. The scrumhalf did cross for a score when he spotted a massive gap in the home defence following more incessant pressure, and Marx then got his first from a trademark driving maul as the Boks simply had too much power for their hosts.
Argentina came out for the second half with more fire in their belly and although it took them 25 minutes to put points on the board, they had the Boks scrambling in defence and were for a while the dominant team. They were awarded a penalty try for an illegal tackle by Kwagga Smith, who received a yellow card and joined Willie le Roux in the sin-bin as the Boks were down to 13 players.
When Moroni crossed to score two minutes later, all the momentum was with Argentina as they moved to within two points. But in the last 10 minutes the Boks found their composure as well as further scores by De Allende and a second for Marx that earned the bonus point, sealed the win and keeps the pressure on New Zealand in the competition.
"The first half we weren’t where we wanted to be in terms of defence and discipline," Argentina captain Julian Montoya said. "In the second half our attitude was much better and we kept going. But it wasn’t enough. "We have to learn from this, you have to play for 80 minutes if you want to win against the world champions." (Writing by Nick Said; Editing by Hugh Lawson)

Soccer-Lewandowski at the double as Barca cruise to win over Elche
Athletic Bilbao went third after brothers Inaki and Nico Williams each scored in a 3-2 win at home to Rayo Vallecano that saw the Basque side, coached by former Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde, equal their best start to a season since 1993. Inaki Williams cancelled out Oscar Trejo's opening goal while younger brother Nico, who was called up to the Spain squad for the first time on Friday, struck Athletic's third later in the first half after Oihan Sancet had given the hosts the lead.
Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski continued his insatiable run of form in front of goal by scoring twice and Memphis Depay also got on the scoresheet as the Catalans cruised to a 3-0 win at home to struggling Elche in LaLiga on Saturday.
The victory took Barca top of the standings on 16 points from six games although Real Madrid, on 15, can return to the summit if they win away at Atletico Madrid on Sunday. Athletic Bilbao went third after brothers Inaki and Nico Williams each scored in a 3-2 win at home to Rayo Vallecano that saw the Basque side, coached by former Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde, equal their best start to a season since 1993.
Inaki Williams cancelled out Oscar Trejo's opening goal while younger brother Nico, who was called up to the Spain squad for the first time on Friday, struck Athletic's third later in the first half after Oihan Sancet had given the hosts the lead. Radamel Falcao struck with 10 minutes to go to set up a tense finish, but Athletic saw out their fourth win from six games to climb to 13 points, three behind Barca.
Barcelona's coach Xavi Hernandez rotated his squad for the visit of the league's bottom side, making five changes to the team that lost 2-0 at Bayern Munich in the Champions League. His side's task was made easier when Elche centre-back Gonzalo Verdu was sent off in the 14th minute for pulling Lewandowski's shirt as the striker was about to reach the area. From that moment on a fifth consecutive league win for Barca looked inevitable, and so it proved.
"We have a big squad, everyone is training well and prepared to play when the team needs them, and that's the important thing," said Xavi. Lewandowski opened the scoring in the 34th minute, arriving deep in the area to knock in a cross from Alejandro Balde and score for the fifth consecutive game in LaLiga.
Memphis scored a magnificent goal to double Barcelona's lead in the 41st minute, receiving the ball with his back to goal and a defender right behind him but swivelling at speed and blasting into the roof of the net. Moments later the hosts thought they had scored a third when Pedri netted a pass from Lewandowski but the effort was ruled out for offside.
The decision, however, could not placate Elche's furious coach Francisco, who was sent off for dissent. Lewandowski grabbed his second goal of the game early in the second half, pouncing inside the area after Memphis had fought hard to win back the ball to get his eighth league goal this season and his 11th in all competitions.

Rugby-Kolisi praises Boks' better execution after win in Argentina
South Africa captain Siya Kolisi believes the only thing that has changed in his side’s game following back-to-back Rugby Championship wins over Australia and Argentina is their execution in the opponents 22.

South Africa captain Siya Kolisi believes the only thing that has changed in his side’s game following back-to-back Rugby Championship wins over Australia and Argentina is their execution in the opponents 22. The Springboks scored five tries to secure a crucial bonus-point 36-20 victory over Argentina in Buenos Aires on Saturday and draw level with New Zealand on 14 points at the top of the table to keep alive their hopes of regaining the title they last won in 2019.
The 2022 season had been characterised by a lack of composure and precision in attack, something coach Jacques Nienaber has repeatedly highlighted. But their 24-8 win over the Wallabies in Sydney and their victory this weekend suggest improvements have been made in both areas. "Nothing has changed in the way we play, it is just about executing," Kolisi told reporters. "If we stick to the plan, we know our system will give us these opportunities to score. In the past couple of games we have taken those chances.
"Our mindset was to come here and get maximum points. We want to win the Rugby Championship and knew we had to pitch up for the game. It was a very good win against a very good Argentina side." The Boks were rocked in the build-up to the match by online reports that a South African Sunday newspaper will reveal allegations of recreational drug taking by certain unnamed players in the squad.
This was taken so seriously by South African Rugby that they released a statement calling the allegations "unsubstantiated" and denying any player had tested positive for a banned substance. "It was quite disturbing, the timing of it, five hours before a match like this," Nienaber said. "I’m stunned that allegations like that can be made against this team.
"We are sometimes tested three times a week in South Africa. I can assure you we are one of the most tested teams. There has not been one positive test since we have been together this year." South Africa host Argentina in Durban next Saturday, while New Zealand welcome Australia to Auckland.
All four sides are still in with a mathematical chance of lifting the trophy.

I am always looking for different items to write about for my columns and I just usually start looking around my apartment to see what might give me inspiration.
Sometimes an idea hits me immediately — but usually it takes me a while to figure out what I really want to write about this week. So I saw these items in my little cabinet on my kitchen counter and decided I should write about all three.
The connection: They are small items and could be used in an office. The scotch tape holder has the markings of “ELEANOR CLARK DESIGN — Custom Made in Japan" impressed on the underside. It has a beautiful inscribed pattern like a vine entwining the whole outside of the tape holder. I am guessing it comes from the 1930s or 1940s.
I have never seen another one in my 50-plus years of antiquing so I decided to keep it on my kitchen island for easy use when wrapping a gift or just needing to help secure an envelope before mailing. It is also weighted so it is easier to use with one hand while needing tape for wrapping that special gift for someone.

Now the letter opener has an ivory-like handle and the blade is quite long, naturally, for ease of opening a letter or a package. It has "DEUS & Co., Germany” as well as “Isco” on the blade of the letter opener. It is easy to use for opening my mail as I keep it right on my counter for just that particular job.
Now the little cast iron skillet is coated with a light brown coating of likely enamel — no names on it anywhere. But I feel it is probably from the early 1920s as it has been used for a spoon holder probably in the past as the edges around the skillet show chipping or chips on the handle as well as the skillet itself.
Still no ideas who might have made it, but who knows, someday I may be able to find out more information. I use it for paper clips as it is very handy to have it sitting on the counter along with my other office necessities for opening a bit of mail each day.
And there it is, just a few remarks about what I have a tendency to collect and use for myself. Amazing how these three little items seem to work well together — for me, anyhow.
On a daily basis, I feel they are very necessary items in my household and yet they follow my antique theme throughout my home.
Funny part about my column this week is the fact that I cannot find much information about the Eleanor Clark Design tape holder but I will keep looking of course. Maybe I will find something later down the road. I would value this item around $30 to $40. But I don’t want to sell it, so no definite value on it at this moment.
Now the letter opener with DEUS & Co. Germany I found several similar letter openers online but not exactly like this one. So again, I don’t really care what it may be worth as I am using it and enjoy having it. Also, I forgot to mention the fact that the handle could be ivory (or possibly bone). I think that part of it should add to the value on this particular item. Again, I really do not care about the value right now, it is just so handy right on my counter to open my daily mail.
Funny sometimes when we think about our little treasures we might use every single day of our lives, and yet they are very handy and very useful when needed and so much more convenient than grabbing a paring knife when opening my mail.
It is always where it should be (however, many other things in my apartment may be out of place — I am not the best housekeeper these days), but it is important for those pieces to be where I want them to be.
Now, getting back to our necessary little items we may have in a vintage rolltop desk. I have written the story about my rolltop (no picture today) but some of you may remember seeing it as I wrote an column earlier this year I believe, or maybe was last year. I lose track
Never hesitate to send me a note about something you might want me to write on for your own personal reasons and that others may enjoy hearing about also. I love to hear from my reading audience. Wow, that makes me feel pretty important — just kidding. But seriously, I would love hearing from you if you have a question or a subject you would like to hear more about. I welcome mail, hearing from those who are reading my columns each week or whenever you have time, I so much enjoy hearing from you all.
Please send mail to my PO Box 688, North Platte, NE 69103-0688, in care of Judy D. Steele. My phone number is 308-530-4572 for other questions, etc.
I have been doing these columns for quite a spell now and I have heard from many of you through the years. It does my heart good when I hear from an interested reader. Thank you!
Moving on, please remember that the CR Rustic Antique Mall at 518 E. Fifth St. in North Platte is a fun place to browse. More than 40 dealers and they all are bringing things in continually.
It's so much fun to walk through the shop and see so many different items in one store. It is truly amazing to see items from “yesterday” and a few newer items as well.
There are lots of handmade goodies along with crochet work and/or painted wood cabinets and kitchen items, dressers of all kinds, sleds from yesteryear, cowhides, dishes and more dishes, lots of glassware, etc. Remember most of it is vintage. The list goes on and on.
We are seeing a lot of graniteware again this year and that is good. I think it may be one vintage item that will be around for a very long time as being high on collectors’ lists. And there are many more things to learn about and possibly work some of these fun items into your already "house full of goodies" in your own home.
I am taking time off from my antique classes due to headaches, etc., I hope to restart them next spring.
Thank you for taking the time to read my column over these past many years. And just remember how grateful I am when I hear from some of you. Take care, be safe out there and enjoy every single moment of every single day. Time is definitely precious.
Have a great week everyone.

Fall is a very satisfying time of the year for the perennial gardener. We still have a good 4 to 6 weeks of beautiful fall gardens ahead of us. Perennials that drooped and faded in the heat of summer may rebloom and the fall-blooming plants are in their full glory.
However, it is time to begin thinking about winter and preparing your perennial beds accordingly.
Now is a good time to be dividing perennials that have exceeded their space, have formed tight clumps with diminished bloom, or have developed a dead space in the center of the plant. Although leaves may become damaged or transplants may appear misshapen, all of this will be gone when the plants reappear in the spring.
Good candidates for division are hostas, daylilies (Hermocallis), black-eyed susans (Rudbeckia), Siberian and Japanese iris (iris sibirica and iris ensata) and ornamental grasses.
People are also reading…
Try to do these divisions about 2 weeks before the fall frost date, which is typically Oct. 13 to 21 in Lincoln County, zone 5. This will give the roots time to reestablish themselves before winter sets in.
Fall is also a good time to plant new perennials, particularly bare root plants. By now you should have ordered or be ready to order from your fall plant catalogs.
Local nurseries are also excellent sources of perennials for fall planting. By planting in the fall instead of the spring you are likely to have larger plants with better bloom in the next year.
Some plants that lend themselves to fall planting include daylilies, purple or white coneflowers (Echinacea), asiatic and oriental lilies (Lilium), bleeding hearts (Dicentra), lily-of-the-valley (Convallaria) and the biennial foxglove (Digitalis).
You should be planting your spring flowering bulbs in late September and October, as will be clear from their wide availability in stores and catalogs. It is also a great time to plant shrubs and trees, the 'bones' of your landscape.
There are a number of cleanup and winter preparation chores that you should be performing in the fall. Early October is a good time to prune back herbaceous plants that will be killed to the ground with the first frost, like hostas, daylilies, bee balms (Monarda), astilbes and peonies.
Some perennials like penstemon, shasta daisies (Chrysanthemum x superbum) and hardy geraniums have a basal crown of leaves that stays green over the winter. If you have not already done so, you should cut back the stems and upper leaves on these plants, as they will die back with frost, but leave the basal crown of leaves.
You may want to wait until spring to cut back some perennials because they provide winter interest or food for birds. Leave the seedheads of black-eyed susans, coneflowers, liatris and Joe Pye weed (Eupatorium). Sedum and ornamental grasses provide good winter visual interest if left uncut in the fall.
As fall progresses you will want to begin cleaning fallen leaves out of your perennial beds. If left to mat down thickly on your perennials, they may foster conditions that cause root rot.
You can add the leaves to your compost pile. It is a good idea to shred them up before you compost them. An easy way to shred fallen leaves it to mow them with your lawn mower. Blow or rake the leaves close to the compost pile and run your lawn mower though them with the discharge shoot directed towards the pile. You may also use the shredded leaves directly as mulch in your garden.
We are often asked whether perennial beds should be heavily mulched over the winter. The general answer is that extra mulching is not necessary, provided you have selected plants that are hardy in your area.
In fact, just as matted leaves may contribute to winter root rot, excessive mulch can have the same effect on hardy perennials. Exceptions to my "no mulch" recommendation would be for newly planted or divided plants, and plants that are only marginally winter hardy in your area. I would cover these plants with 2 to 3 inches of mulch for the winter, in late October or early November. Remove it in early spring.
If rain is insufficient like this year’s continued drought, you should continue watering perennials, shrubs and trees until a hard freeze occurs, especially newly planted or divided materials. Plants should not go into winter with insufficient water around the roots.
Do not fertilize perennials in the fall, even when newly planting or dividing them. This will encourage herbaceous (leaf and flower) growth rather than the more desirable root formation.
Once you have put your garden to bed for the winter, take the time to clean and oil your tools. Sharpen them or have them sharpened so that they will be ready for spring.
Store your tools in a dry place, but keep them handy for work on a mild day in the winter. Spend the winter planning your garden needs by reading through extension nebguides, seed and plant catalogs. Make your plans and dream about the renewal of the life cycle in your spring garden.

Monarch butterflies are migrating south now. Millions of monarch butterflies take part in the migration, making it one of the world’s most impressive natural spectacles. The newest monarch generation emerged last month and began their migratory journey south.
Monarch numbers reach their peak during fall migration. At no other time of year is the population larger. Monarchs produce four generations during the typical breeding cycle and the population grows with each new generation.
Monarch butterflies carry out this remarkable migration pattern year after year. Monarchs born in the upper mid-west, plains states and Canada begin to move south toward their wintering areas, some butterflies flying over 3,000 miles.
The monarch butterfly has a very unique life cycle. The butterflies migrating south now are the great-great-grandchildren of the monarchs that left overwintering sanctuaries along the coast of California in the United States and the Monarch Biosphere Reserve in central Mexico last spring.
People are also reading…
The return migration takes place in spring, usually beginning in March. The journey north is split between multiple generations. Unlike the journey south where each butterfly travels the entire route, the northward trip is taken in stages, with no single butterfly making the entire journey.
This fact has always intrigued biologists. Since no butterfly makes the round trip, how do individual butterflies know where to go? If there would be any type of disruption in this cycle or the migration route, could it recover?
Another interesting fact is that the entire life cycle of a northward-traveling monarch butterfly is only between 2 to 5 weeks long, but the lifespan of a southward-migrating monarch butterfly can be as long as nine months.
Monarchs will move northward again in the spring. But the monarch population has dwindled to such an extent over the last two decades that scientists worry the migratory system could collapse forever.
So, why are their fewer monarch butterflies? There are several factors that seem to be causes for population decline.
The primary reason why monarch butterflies are endangered is that there has been a dramatic reduction in their habitats within North America and loss of milkweed.
As stated by National Geographic, “Monarch butterflies need three things to survive: milkweed plants (their food source), warm temperatures, and daylight”
Due to human activities such as development, deforestation and herbicide use, milkweed plants have been eliminated in great numbers which have made it difficult for monarch butterflies to find food and survive
Monarch butterflies are also at risk from parasites and diseases that can kill them. According to National Geographic, “the biggest danger to Monarchs is a tiny parasite called Ophryocystis elektroscirrha that is spread by infected butterflies.” This parasite can cause the wings of monarchs to become deformed and makes them less able to fly
Illegal trade is also a major threat to Monarch Butterflies. The World Wildlife Fund stated, “millions of monarchs are illegally collected every year and traded across borders for use in traditional medicines, as wedding decorations, or placed in children’s gardens as butterfly pets. Some conservation groups say that if this trend continues, it could lead to the extinction of monarch butterflies within a few decades.
Air pollution endangers monarch butterflies. National Geographic studies revealed that smoke or smog containing high amounts of ozone can impact butterflies. Ozone enters through cracks in butterfly wings and can cause mortality rates to increase dramatically while butterflies are flying above urban areas
Pesticides seem to play a significant role in monarch population decline. It does not have to be a chemical/pesticide sprayed on the monarch. Chemicals absorbed through the roots of milkweed can affect the butterfly
Earlier this year, Journey North program coordinator, Nancy Sheehan, worked with the FieldScope/BSCS Science Learning team to bring data on milkweed, monarch and hummingbird tracking and monitoring into a newly launched FieldScope project. Data from Journey North’s Hummingbird and Monarch & Milkweed projects are now available from 1994–2020.
FieldScope is an online platform for citizen and community science projects with tools for visualizing and analyzing data. Educators can use educational materials on the FieldScope/BSCS Science Learning website. These materials, called Invitations to Inquiry, help educators guide middle and high school students as they learn to collect, visualize and analyze data from community and citizen science projects.
Invitations to Inquiry provides a structured inquiry experience to lead educators toward providing students with open-ended data inquiry experiences. Explore Journey North Monarch fall roost data using FieldScope’s advanced mapping and graphing tools and dig deeper into data in the context of meaningful science classroom lessons.
Journey North hopes to foster the use of reliable/real time data within a multitude of educational settings. From middle school classrooms to undergraduate studies, students can learn more by analyzing this data.

LINCOLN — Voter registration day is Sept. 20, Nebraska Secretary of State Robert Evnen said in a press release. Voter registration day was founded by the National Association of Secretaries of State.
The statewide election is Nov. 8, along with other simultaneous elections.
To register, one must be a citizen of the United States, a resident of Nebraska, and be at least 18 years of age on or before the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November. Nearly one out of every seven Americans of voting age who are eligible are not registered.
Updating registration information is important for anyone who has moved, changed their name, desires to change their party affiliations, or had their voting rights restored since the last elections, the release said.
There are several ways to complete changes or register. A person can go to their county election office — fill out a paper registration form and mail it to their county election office.

The Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles also will register citizens online when updating or obtaining a driver’s license. The Secretary of State’s online voting registration website is very accessible and used by many. Go to nebraska.gov/apps-sos-voter-registration. A valid driver’s license or state ID is required.
“It is important to register and keep your registration information accurate,” Evnen said. “Don’t let it slip by. In Nebraska, your vote counts. Remember to take care of those updates.”
For additional information go to the voter registration portal at sos.ne.gov.

A former White House aide told the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack that Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) sought a pardon from former President Trump over the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) investigation into sex trafficking allegations against him, The Washington Post reported on Saturday, citing sources familiar with the testimony.
Former Trump aide Johnny McEntee said Gaetz told him he had asked former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows for a preemptive pardon, the Post reported. McEntee told the committee that he understood the pardon to be in connection with the DOJ probe.
The Justice Department is investigating allegations that Gaetz paid for sex, paid for women to travel across state lines to have sex and had a sexual relationship with a minor. Gaetz denies the allegations.
The committee previously showed McEntee saying in a videotaped deposition that Gaetz told him he asked Meadows for a pardon during a June hearing.
It also presented testimony from other former Trump aides naming Gaetz as one of several Republican lawmakers who sought pardons from Trump. Gaetz and Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) advocated for a “blanket pardon” for lawmakers who participated in a December 2020 meeting where efforts to overturn the election were discussed, former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson testified. When asked by the committee if Gaetz was seeking a pardon, Eric Herschmann, a former Trump White House attorney, responded in a taped deposition that he believed so and that Gaetz’s pardon request was “for any and all things.”
Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), a member of the committee, also presented an email from Brooks in which the Alabama congressman requested presidential pardons for himself, Gaetz, and lawmakers who objected to the Electoral College vote for Arizona and Pennsylvania.
However, McEntee’s testimony as reported by the Post is the first to indicate that Gaetz sought a pardon in connection with the Justice Department’s investigation into the sex trafficking allegations, though there has been speculation.
The New York Times reported in April 2021 that Gaetz had sought a blanket pardon from Trump in the last weeks of his presidency, noting this came as the congressman was being investigated by the DOJ for allegedly violating sex trafficking laws. Trump denied the allegations that Gaetz had directly asked for a blanket pardon.
“Congressman Matt Gaetz discussed pardons for many other people publicly and privately at the end of President Donald Trump’s first term,” a spokesperson for Gaetz said in a statement. “As for himself, President Trump addressed this malicious rumor more than a year ago stating, ‘Congressman Matt Gaetz has never asked me for a pardon.’ Rep. Gaetz continues to stand by President Trump’s statement.”
The Jan. 6 committee and Trump’s team did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

SAN DIEGO (KSWB) – A father who entered an elephant enclosure with his 2-year-old daughter at the San Diego Zoo has been sentenced to four years probation.
Jose Manuel Navarrete was arrested in March 2021 on suspicion of child cruelty after zoo officials said he bypassed multiple barriers and “purposely and illegally trespassed” into a habitat containing Asian and African elephants.
“You hear this woman yelling, ‘Jose, stop. Jose, stop!’” a witness told Nexstar’s KSWB at the time. “And he jumps the fence and then he goes through the elephant enclosure, and he’s got his little girl with him who, I don’t know, had to be under 2.”
Video shared to KSWB shows Navarrete flee the enclosure after realizing an elephant is charging toward him and his daughter. Police noted at the time that he dropped the young girl while climbing to safety, then quickly turned back to retrieve her.
Navarrete, already on probation for two other cases in Orange County, did not show up to his initial sentencing in July.
“He did contact my office last court hearing on his inability to come down to San Diego from Orange County,” said his attorney representing him.
Navarrete entered a plea deal for child endangerment, which his attorney told the judge he is remorseful for.
“Mr. Navarrete, I’m not convinced that you are going to fare well on probation given your interview with probation,” said Judge Rachel Cano, who said Navarrete indicated that he, too, was a victim.
“Rest assured, you are not the victim. It was your daughter, and you endangered your daughter,” Judge Cano said.
The judge told Navarrete to take his probation terms seriously.
“If I place you on probation, you are willing to abide by those conditions?” the judge asked.
“Correct,” Navarrete said.
Navarrete was sentenced to four years probation. He has been asked to stay away from the San Diego Zoo.

(NEXSTAR) – Family Dollar is asking locations in 11 states to stop selling certain varieties of Colgate toothpaste that had been “stored outside of labeled temperature requirements,” according to a voluntary Family Dollar recall notice shared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
News of the recall follows similar notices issued by Family Dollar in July and August, which also concerned products that were improperly stored before being shipped to stores.
The latest recall, which affects Colgate Optic White toothpaste and mouthwash, concerns products shipped between May and June 21 to stores in Arizona, California, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Texas and Utah.
The recalled products include six different varieties of Colgate Optic White:
- Colgate Optic White Stain Prevention Toothpaste, 2.1 ounces
- Colgate Optic White Charcoal Toothpaste, 4.2 ounces
- Colgate Optic White Mouthwash, 16 fluid ounces
- Colgate Optic White High Impact Toothpaste, 3 ounces
- Colgate Optic White Toothpaste Icy Fresh, 3 ounces
- Colgate Optic White Stain Fighter Toothpaste Clean Mint, 4.2 ounces
Any customer who may have purchased the recalled products can return their items to the place of purchase for a refund “without a receipt,” according to the recall notice. Those with questions can contact Family Dollar Customer Service at 844-636-7687 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. EST.
There have been no reports of adverse reactions as a result of using the products. The FDA, however, urges those who may have experienced problems to contact a doctor and report their issue to the FDA’s MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting Program.
In July, Family Dollar recalled 425 over-the-counter products, which included toothpastes, lip balms, deodorants, lotions, sleep aids and more, that were inadvertently shipped to stores between May and mid-June, saying they had been stored at improper temperatures.
Family Dollar expanded the recall August, due to additional products having been stored outside of required temperatures.

Henry Silva, known for many tough-guy roles, dies at 95
NEW YORK (AP) — Henry Silva, a prolific character actor best known for playing villains and tough guys in “The Manchurian Candidate,” “Ocean’s Eleven” and other films, has died at age 95.
Silva’s son Scott Silva told Variety that he died Wednesday of natural causes at the Motion Picture and Television Country House and Hospital in Woodland Hills, California.
Silva was a New York City native who dropped out of school as a teenager, in the 1940s, and was accepted the following decade into the Actors Studio, where fellow students included Shelley Winters and Ben Gazzara. He went on to have a long and busy career in film and television, with hundreds of credits before retiring from acting in 2001.
He had a breakthrough role on stage and screen in the 1950s as a drug dealer in “A Hatful of Rain” and supporting parts in two of Frank Sinatra’s best known movies, both from the early 1960s: “Ocean’s Eleven,” the Las Vegas heist film that was a showcase for Sinatra, Dean Martin and other “Rat Pack” members; and “The Manchurian Candidate,” the Cold War thriller about brainwashing and the assassination of the president that starred Sinatra, Laurence Harvey and Janet Leigh. (In his last film appearance, Silva was cast in the “Ocean’s Eleven” remake from 2000 that starred George Clooney and Brad Pitt).
“Our hearts are broken at the loss of our dear friend Henry Silva, one of the nicest, kindest and most talented men I’ve had the pleasure of calling my friend,” Dean Martin’s daughter, Deana Martin, tweeted this week. “He was the last surviving star of the original Oceans 11 Movie.”
Silva was also seen on such television series as “Wagon Train” and “The F.B.I.” and in such film as Warren Beatty’s “Dick Tracy,” Jerry Lewis’ “Cinderfella” and “Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai,” in which he played a mobster in the 1999 release directed by one of his admirers, Jim Jarmusch.

There was early drama in the battle to win the FIM Endurance World Championship when Yoshimura SERT Motul, the defending champion team, stopped with a mechanical issue.
Kazuki Watanabe had just started his stint on the #1 Suzuki when he pulled off-line at the end of the Mistral Straight after 34 laps before riding to the pits for repairs.

Yoshimura SERT Motul started the Bol d’Or with a 22-point advantage over YART – Official Team EWC but a non-score will all but end its title hopes.

There was more drama just before 17h00 when BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team's Jérémy Guarnoni pitted with what would prove to be a terminal engine issue.
YART’s hopes then went up in smoke at 18h22, while F.C.C. TSR Honda France has made two unscheduled stops during the opening four hours.
Webike SRC Kawasaki France was also in trouble before the four-hour mark when Florian Marino stopped on track before pushing his stricken machine back to the pits for repairs.

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Some of the most loyal of Disney enthusiasts say one specific thing is keeping them from visiting Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando more often — they even say it’s causing “the Happiest Place on Earth” to completely lose its magic.
It’s the cost.
A family vacation to Walt Disney World Resort is more expensive than ever and fans are noticing, according to a new poll. The gambling website time2play recently released a study based on data from 1,927 “self-described Disney World enthusiasts” about the rising costs to visit the park.
According to the study, 92.6% of those surveyed believed the cost of a Disney World vacation is out of reach for an average family. Additionally, 68.3% of people said increases made it feel like the theme park has lost all its magic.
As of Tuesday, the cost for a standard one-park day ticket on Friday, Sept. 16 is $134, though prices of tickets vary by date. Standard Walt Disney World tickets range between $139 and $154 through October, according to Disney World’s website.
Almost 50% of respondents said they postponed a Disney World trip in recent years due to price increases.
According to a study by “Koala“, a company based in Brooklyn that connects vacationers with timeshare owners online, a single-day ticket Walt Disney World could cost $253.20 in just nine years.
When Walt Disney World Resort opened in 1971, a ticket cost only $3.50. Adjusting for inflation, that would be $22.61 today. According to Koala calculations, there has been an average price increase of 7.4% each year since the park opened.
Meanwhile, the cost for standard one-park day tickets at Disneyland, Disney’s California park, cost about $149 for Sept. 16. Standard Disneyland tickets range between $135 and $165 through the month of October, per Disneyland’s website.
Disney enthusiasts polled by time2play also said by a large majority (66.9%) that they felt they wouldn’t get a true Disney World experience if they didn’t pay for upgrades like the Genie+ service, which offers “Lighting Lanes” — which lets users wait in shorter lines for rides. Genie+ service is an extra $15 per person each day (though prices may vary), in addition to admission cost. Genie service doesn’t come complete with all Lightning Lanes, however. Guests must purchase even more lanes within the Genie app for full lane skipping.

The race to win the 2022 FIM Endurance World Championship […]
The race to win the 2022 FIM Endurance World Championship has been turned on its head during a dramatic start to the 100th-anniversary Bol d’Or.
Ad
One of the toughest disciplines in international motorsport has more than lived up to its hugely demanding reputation with four of the top five teams in the standings heading to Circuit Paul Ricard hitting trouble. Their challenge has been increased by the engine-straining 1.8-kilometre Mistral Straight and a tail wind that had pushed top speeds to well above 300kph during the opening exchanges.
FIM EWC
After 4 hours: Bol taking its toll for EWC aces
Yoshimura SERT Motul, the defending champion team and leader after three rounds, joined BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team – out earlier with an overheating issue – on the list of retirements, when efforts to repair an engine issue failed.
Having dropped out of contention with an engine issue of its own, YART – Yamaha Official Team EWC returned to the action shortly after 21h30 having spent some three hours in the pits. But its comeback was short-lived when Karel Hanika stopped at Turn 6, thereby ruling out any fading hopes of winning the championship.
F.C.C. TSR Honda France lost nine minutes to enable a faulty oil radiator to be replaced before the team was forced to make another unscheduled stop, this time for almost five minutes, when an exhaust problem surfaced. It has since been trying to make up for lost time, albeit resisting the urge to go at full throttle in order to avoid further need for repairs, as the team’s French rider Mike Di Meglio explained.
Webike SRC Kawasaki France was in the victory fight when it stopped for more than 15 minutes while an engine wiring issue was rectified, Florian Marino being forced to push his stricken machine back to the pits.
But there have been no such problems for ERC Endurance-Ducati, the leader at the points-paying eight-hour mark, and TATI Team Beringer, which is battling F.C.C. TSR Honda France for the FIM Endurance World Championship crown based on the current classification. However, with 16 hours still to run, the outcome is far from settled.
With several pacesetting teams dropping time or dropping out, privateer squads such as Viltaïs Racing Igol, Wójcik Racing Team, Team Moto Ain, Team Bolliger Switzerland, MACO Racing Team and Motobox Kremer Racing are enjoying their moment in the spotlight with Viltaïs Racing Igol second after eight hours and part of the podium battle that also includes Wójcik Racing Team and TATI Team Beringer Racing. Team Bolliger Switzerland’s eighth position is in spite of Nico Thöni crashing two corners into the race.
Plenty of action in Superstock with multiple lead changesWhile Formula EWC has provided plenty of entertainment, the action in Superstock has also been must-see with the FIM Endurance World Cup title also up for grabs during the Bol d’Or. OG Motorsport by Sarazin was in front after eight hours, while Team 18 Sapeurs Pompiers CMS Motostore – which led the category earlier in the race – is on course for the title. RAC41-Chromeburner and Team 33 Louit April Moto are also well placed, despite Team 33 Louit April Moto losing time pitting to change a damaged front tyre. BMRT 3D Maxxess Nevers is fifth in class ahead of the pole-sitting Wójcik Racing Team after eighth hours of racing.
Fores’ sensational slipstream overtake an early Bol d’Or highlightThe opening laps delivered more classic FIM Endurance World Championship action with Gregg Black, Mike Di Meglio, Xavi Forés and Markus Reiterberger all taking their turn to lead. But it was Forés who pulled off the most spectacular pass, overtaking his three rivals on a sensational slipstream move on the Mistral Straight. Click HERE to view the action.

This distribution amount represents an annualized rate of 5.25%* based on the current share price, marking the Fund's 39th consecutive quarterly distribution. Since inception in 2012 at $25.00 per share, TIPRX has paid nearly $15 per share in total distributions to its shareholders. In addition to these quarterly distributions, TIPRX NAV has grown over 52% from $25 to $38.10 per share (as of 9.15.2022) and has generated a 9.58% annualized return since inception, with positive returns in each and every calendar year since inception. Due to this growth, shareholders who purchased at inception NAV of $25/share will receive a distribution amount at an annual rate of approximately 8.0% based on their original investment amount.
"While persistent inflation and rising interest rates have created turbulence and steep declines in the stock and bond markets in 2022, TI+ has continued to provide a consistent 5.25% annual distribution rate* and has generated over 425 basis points (4.25%) of annual appreciation over and above the distributions since inception, with almost no drawdown this year," said Jeffrey Schwaber, CEO of Bluerock Capital Markets. "In fact, while the leading stock and bond indexes have dropped 17% and 12% respectively, TI+ is up nearly 16% year to date," added Schwaber. (YTD 2022 through 9.15.22, TIPRX, no load S&P 500, Bloomberg Aggregate Bond Index)1

The Bluerock Total Income+ Real Estate Fund offers individual investors access to a portfolio of institutional real estate securities managed by top-ranked fund managers. The Fund seeks to provide a comprehensive real estate holding designed to provide a combination of current income, capital preservation, long-term capital appreciation and enhanced portfolio diversification with low to moderate volatility and low correlation to the broader equity and fixed income markets. The Fund utilizes an exclusive partnership with Mercer Investment Management, Inc., the world's leading advisor to endowments, pension funds, sovereign wealth funds and family offices globally, with over 3,300 clients worldwide, and over $17.3 trillion in assets under advisement.
Investing in the Bluerock Total Income+ Real Estate Fund involves risks, including the loss of principal. The Fund intends to make investments in multiple real estate securities that may subject the Fund to additional fees and expenses, including management and performance fees, which could negatively affect returns and could expose the Fund to additional risk, including lack of control, as further described in the prospectus.
* The Fund's distribution policy is to make quarterly distributions to shareholders. The level of quarterly distributions (including any return of capital) is not fixed and this distribution policy is subject to change. Shareholders should not assume that the source of a distribution from the Fund is net profit. All or a portion of the distributions consist of a return of capital based on the character of the distributions received from the underlying holdings, primarily Real Estate Investment Trusts. The final determination of the source and tax characteristics of all distributions will be made after the end of each year. Shareholders should note that return of capital will reduce the tax basis of their shares and potentially increase the taxable gain, if any, upon disposition of their shares. There is no assurance that the Company will continue to declare distributions or that they will continue at these rates. There can be no assurance that any investment will be effective in achieving the Fund's investment objectives, delivering positive returns or avoiding losses.
Limited liquidity is provided to shareholders only through the Fund's quarterly repurchase offers for no less than 5% of the Fund's shares outstanding at net asset value. There is no guarantee that shareholders will be able to sell all of the shares they desire in a quarterly repurchase offer. Quarterly repurchases by the Fund of its shares typically will be funded from available cash or sales of portfolio securities. The sale of securities to fund repurchases could reduce the market price of those securities, which in turn would reduce the Fund's net asset value.
Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Bluerock Total Income+ Real Estate Fund. This and other important information about the Fund is contained in the prospectus, which can be obtained online at bluerockfunds.com. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing.

(The Conversation) – When I first started my job as a biologist at the University of South Florida, I drove my Jeep to a grassy field, dug up a mound of fire ants and shoveled it into a 5-gallon bucket. Immediately, thousands of ants swarmed out of the soil and up the walls of the bucket headed for freedom. Luckily I had a lid.
How do ants make climbing walls, ceilings and other surfaces look so easy? I’ve been studying ants for 30 years, and their climbing abilities never cease to amaze me.
Worker ants – who are all female – have an impressive toolbox of claws, spines, hairs and sticky pads on their feet that enable them to scale almost any surface.
Human hands vs. ant feet
To understand ant feet, it helps to compare them with human hands. Your hand has one broad segment, the palm. Sprouting from your palm are four fingers and an opposable thumb. Each finger has three segments, while your thumb has only two segments. A hard nail grows from the tips of your fingers and thumb.
Humans have two hands – ants have six feet. Ant feet are similar to your hands but are more complex, with an additional set of weird-looking parts that enhance them.
Ant feet have five jointed segments, with the end segment sporting a pair of claws. The claws are shaped like a cat’s and can grip irregularities on walls. Each foot segment also has thick and thin spines and hairs that provide additional traction by sticking into microscopic pits on textured surfaces like bark. Claws and spines have the added benefit of protecting ant feet from hot pavement and sharp objects, just as your feet are protected by shoes.
But the feature that truly separates human hands from ant feet are inflatable sticky pads, called arolia.
Sticky feet
Arolia are located between the claws at the tip of every ant foot. These balloonlike pads allow ants to defy gravity and crawl on ceilings or ultrahard surfaces like glass.
When an ant walks up a wall or across a ceiling, gravity causes its claws to swing wide and pull back. At the same time, its leg muscles pump fluids into the pads at the end of its feet, causing them to inflate. This body fluid is called hemolymph, which is a sticky fluid similar to your blood that circulates throughout an ant’s body.
After the hemolymph pumps up the pad, some of it leaks outside the pad, which is how ants can stick to a wall or a ceiling. But when an ant picks up its foot, its leg muscles contract and suck most of the fluid back into the pad and then back up the leg. This way an ant’s blood is reused over and over – pumped from the leg into the pad, then sucked back up the leg – so none is left behind.
Ants are feather-light, so six sticky pads are enough to hold them against the pull of gravity on any surface. In fact, at home in their underground chambers, ants use their sticky pads to sleep on the ceiling. By sleeping on the ceiling, ants avoid the rush-hour traffic of other ants on the chamber floors.
A unique gait
When you walk, your left and right feet alternate so one is on the ground while the other is in the air, moving forward. Ants also alternate their feet, with three on the surface and three in the air at a time.A computer simulation showing an ant’s special walk. Created by Shihui Guo.
The walking pattern of ants is unique among six-legged insects. In ants, the front and back left feet are on the ground with the middle right foot, while the front and back right feet and the middle left foot are in the air. Then they switch. It’s fun to try to copy this triangular pattern using three fingers on each hand.
The next time you see an ant crawling up a wall, look closely and you might witness some of these fascinating features at work.

EL PASO, TEXAS (KTSM) – The Salvation Army in El Paso continues to feed migrants even after the latest migrant shelter closed back in August.
It is public knowledge that some migrants are currently staying in local participating hotels before they travel to their final destination in order to meet their sponsors. According to The Salvation Army, they have been providing breakfast, lunch, and diner every day to migrants staying in local hotels. The Salvation Army says that equals to a total of 624 meals for 208 migrants. Different volunteer groups have partnered with The Salvation Army to package/transport meals. Volunteer groups such as the Mobile Integrated Healthcare of the El Paso Fire Department or the Office of Emergency Management.
Migrants passing through usually take bus transportation to their final destination. These families and individuals often have no resources until they get to their sponsors, so The Salvation Army has been additionally providing two sack meals for each person. Today, The Salvation Army is providing 250 meals for 125 migrants. The Salvation Army homeless shelter operates on a first come first serve basis, serving both the local homeless population as well as migrants in need of a place to stay.
“The Salvation Army exists to meet human need wherever, whenever, and however we can.”
Major Floiran Estrada, Commanding Officer.

Maja Stark is well placed to push for a maiden win on the LPGA Tour on American soil after playing her way into contention at the Amazingcre Portland Classic.
The Swede is one of the rising stars of the golfing world after a string of wins on the Ladies European Tour.

Stark earned a playing card for the LPGA Tour when winning the co-sanctioned ISPS Handa World Invitational in August.

'It is a big motivation' - Molinari has sights trained on home Ryder Cup spot
The 22-year-old elected to take up the option, and made her debut in Portland this week.
With the likes of Nelly Korda, Brooke Henderson and Leona Maguire in action, Stark was dipping her toes into the big league.
There were no signs of nerves over the course of the first couple of days at the Oregon Golf Club, and she kept herself in the hunt in the third round to sit three behind leaders Ayaka Furue, Andrea Lee and Lilia Vu.
Third Round Leaderboard
- T1. Ayaka Furue, 13-under
- T1. Andrea Lee, 13-under
- T1. Lilia Vu, 13-under
- T4. Hinaki Shibuno, 12-under
- T4. Paula Reto, 12-under
- T4. Daniela Darquea, 12-under
- T4. Hannah Green, 12-under
- T8. Esther Henseleit, 11-under
- T8. Ryann O’Toole, 11-under
- T10. Frida Kinhult, 10-under
- T10. Caroline Inglis, 10-under
- T10. Carlota Ciganda, 10-under
- T10. Maya Stark, 10-under
Stark is a multi-faceted golfer, as she has length off the tee, is a precision iron player and has a deft touch around the greens.
She demonstrated the latter on the eighth when she chipped in from the rough behind the green for a fourth birdie in a row.
Stark had a costly three-putt for a double bogey on the 16th to drop back to 10-under, but her round of 70 left her three off the lead.
Korda bounced back from a disappointing 73 on Friday to climb up the leaderboard with a 69 to get to seven-under.
The world No. 2 is possibly too far back, but Korda cannot be ruled out as she chases a first win of 2022 on the LPGA Tour - and has memories of winning from 10 shots behind earlier this summer at the Aramco Team Series.
Henderson made a birdie on her final hole to post a 69 to get to nine-under, and the proven big-event winner will be in the rear-view mirrors of the leaders.

Six-time Speedway Grand Prix world champion Tony Rickardsson believes Bartosz Zmarzlik is “already one of the greats” and thinks there is more to come from him.
Zmarzlik won his third title by winning the Swedish Speedway GP to wrap up the championship with one round remaining.

He joins an illustrious list of names that have won at least three titles, which includes Rickardsson who is at the top of the tree.
Speedway GP
‘He’s had an amazing year’ – Woffinden congratulates Zmarzlik
“It might sound strange, but I don’t think he is at his full potential yet in all of the Grand Prix,” Rickardsson said.
“He shows even stronger results in the leagues. He is maybe missing a little bit of competition from the Russian guys.
“He is such a competitive guy and can relax at high pressure times. I think he showed his true colours in Vojens when it could have been a bad meeting but he changed it to be a super success.”
‘I need to see what my friends think!’ – Zmarzlik reacts to victory and becoming world champion
Asked if Zmarzlik could become one of the all-time greats, Rickardsson added: “I hope he chases me down!
“One of my dreams is to hand over my legacy from my days and if he can beat my record, he is more than welcome, that would be awesome.
“He has everything that is needed. He has a good surrounding around him and he is really chilled about being at the top.
“I always say, ‘the view is good, but everybody is there to drag you down’. I think he is already one of the greats.”
- As It Happened: Zmarzlik becomes a three-time world champion in style
- ‘It’s unbelievable!’ – Zmarzlik relieved to win title before final round
Zmarzlik beat Fredrik Lindgren in the final in Sweden on Saturday as he dominated the race from start to finish.
Lindgren congratulated the Pole, who also won the title in 2019 and 2020, on his latest championship.
“A big congratulations to Bartosz,” said Lindgren. “He’s outstanding. It doesn’t matter which racer he’s racing; he is always 100%.
“He’s a pleasure to watch on the bike and hopefully I can get a bit closer to him next year!”
Three-time world champion Tai Woffinden commented: “He’s had an amazing year this year so there’s nothing else to say other than well done and congratulations.”

Australia's Ashleigh Gentle pulled out a dramatic victory in the PTO US Open, overhauling a seven-minute gap to American rival Taylor Knibb in the final stages of the run.
Gentle, also the reigning Canadian Open champion, has emerged as a force in 2022, and stunned Knibb, the 2021 Olympic silver medallist, with her late surge.

The Australian reflected on a stunning win afterwards. "I had to dig to the depths of myself for that one. That was really, really tough. [I was] honestly feeling just horrible on the start of the bike ride.
PTO Tour
'Beautiful scenes!' – Gentle wins PTO US Open after stunning run
"Being on my own a little bit, watching the group ride away. It was really discouraging, but I was just trying to keep my head in the game.
"I absolutely didn’t expect to have the run I did. I just really had to focus on myself. I just tried to manage my pacing well, and I guess it paid off.
"It’s been a really good year, it’s been a lot of fun, I’m really enjoying the sport again."
'I had to dig to the depths of myself' - PTO US Open champion Gentle
Knibb, for her part, was disappointed to be overtaken.
She said: "[The finish line was] so close, but so far, I’m just grateful to get to the finish line, I don’t know how I made it, I was just dying, overheating, I couldn’t move any faster."
It was scorching in Dallas, as the PTO Tour came to Texas for the first time, with temperatures in the high 30s and humidity well over 50%. Even the water was warm, at 26 degrees.
The world's top three women, German duo Laura Philipp and Anne Haug, and Swiss Daniela Ryf, all missed the event. As did American pair Skye Moench and Chelsea Sodaro. All five are in the world top 10.
This left the field wide open.
British star Lucy Charles-Barclay shot into the lead in the swim, with Knibb close behind.
Olympic, Commonwealth and world champion Flora Duffy of Bermuda was left behind early.
Charles-Barclay and Knibb led as they exited the swim, but the American took a solo lead in the bike leg.

- American legend Michael Johnson praises PTO for telling compelling stories about its athletes
- Team Europe defends Collins Cup in Samorin, Bratislava
The Dallas course was designed with fans in mind, and enabled fans to see the athletes as many as 12 different times during the race. Part of this design involved a seven-lap bike leg.
After slipping behind, Charles-Barclay also lost her water bottle, a punishing result in the Dallas heat. She also had bike issues which slowed her down.
Knibb was stretching her lead, with Charles-Barclay losing yet more time as she struggled with the bike racks, but Gentle emerged as the likeliest contender and began reeling in the leaders on the run.
Gentle blitzed past both Charles-Barclay and Knibb with a few kilometres to go, stretching her lead as she approached the finish line.
'We've seen more kids getting involved' - Johnson on PTO, Dallas and the rise of triathlon
There was a $1m prize pool on the line, split among the top 40 finishers.
That meant that Gentle's late surge from third doubled her prize money, from $50,000 to $100,000.
Triathlon, an Olympic sport since Sydney 2000, is emerging as a major sport in the United States. Participation now exceeds 4,000,000.
The US Open completes the PTO series for 2022, but it will expand to include a European and Asian event next year.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- California Governor Gavin Newsom took action to uncover why Californians are paying so much for their gasoline when he signed legislation today requiring oil refiners to disclose their profits from refining oil into gasoline monthly.
SB 1322 (Allen), the Oil Refiner Price Disclosure Act, will require the state's oil refiners to report monthly on the cost of the crude oil they buy, the wholesale price of the gasoline they sell, and their profits made per gallon.
Californians are now paying $1.49 more per gallon for gasoline than US drivers, according to the most recent report from the U.S. Energy Information Administration. While refiners blame added taxes and environmental regulation, those costs add only 60 cents per gallon.
"For far too long, refiners in our state have been able to keep their profit margins under wraps," said Senator Ben Allen, the bill's author. "I am very pleased by Governor Newsom's signing of SB 1322, finally giving California drivers more information about why they are paying so much at the pump amidst record gains by oil companies."
"The Governor today took the first step towards dealing with the excess profits California's oil refiners appear to be making based on their investor reports," said Jamie Court, president of Consumer Watchdog. "Oil refiner transparency about their profits and costs is critical to the legislature having the information it needs to take action against unreasonable, excess profits. We applaud Governor Newsom for signing the toughest oil refiner transparency law in the nation."
The current price spike in California is the result of limited refinery capacity issues in California and problems at the refineries. Since five refiners control the market, they profit from every hiccup in production. California refiners are not currently required to report their profits monthly, but many do report their regional profits to investors on a quarterly basis.
In just the second quarter of 2022, California's five big oil refiners reported unprecedented windfall profits that topped $26 billion—making from three to ten times more in profits per gallon off their West Coast operations from April through June than they did in the same period last year.
A review of profit reports conducted by Consumer Watchdog found that profits per gallon from West Coast operations registered highest among each refiner's reported regions across the United States and world.

SEATTLE, Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Horizon Air's more than 700 pilots, who are represented by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT), voted to ratify a new agreement aimed at supporting the company's pilots and retaining talent as mainline airlines continue hiring pilots away from regional airlines at record levels. The agreement includes important pay increases and enhancements to retirement benefits. Additional improvements involve commuter policies and instructor benefits.
More than 91% of Horizon pilots voted, and the agreement passed by 99%.
A tentative agreement was reached with the IBT on Sept. 2 and is effective immediately upon today's ratification.
"Horizon Air is proud to serve communities throughout the West – places that we call home. The ongoing industry pilot shortage has put a strain on this service, and it's more critical than ever that we attract and retain our talented pilots," said Joe Sprague, president of Horizon Air. "We are focused on making Horizon the regional carrier of choice for pilots, and this agreement positions us well. I'm grateful to our pilots and to our colleagues at the IBT for their collaboration and hard work in getting to this point. Together, we are positioning Horizon for a strong future."
"In light of recent wage increases across all segments of our industry, significant improvements were necessary for Horizon Air to remain competitive in attracting and retaining pilots," said Horizon pilot and IBT 1224 Executive Council Chairman Henry Simkins. "We identified what was important to our pilot group and worked to implement an approach that will help Horizon Air retain an experienced workforce and attract new talent. We appreciate management's investment in our skilled professionals that continue to safely deliver our wonderful passengers every day."
The pilot shortage and the transition to a single fleet of Embraer 175 aircraft has resulted in a temporary reduction of Horizon's scheduled flying. Nonetheless, Horizon continues to fly to every community we serve. Regional air service provides essential support for economic development and strong local communities. We're committed to ensuring this service remains strong into the future.
The new agreement with Horizon pilots complements other company efforts that are expanding and diversifying the pilot pipeline through investments in the Ascend Pilot Academy and the Pilot Development Program. This is a priority, as Alaska and Horizon estimate the need to hire 500 pilots each year through 2025.
With bases in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Alaska, Horizon serves more than 45 cities throughout the Pacific Northwest, California, the Midwest, and British Columbia and Alberta in Canada. Horizon maintains pilot crew bases in Anchorage, Boise, Everett, Medford, Portland, Seattle and Spokane.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Association of Insurance Commissioners' (NAIC) Life Insurance Policy Locator (LIPL) helps to connect consumers with their deceased loved ones' lost life insurance policies and annuity contracts.
"Dealing with the financial aftermath in the death of a loved one is difficult and often confusing," said NAIC President and Idaho Insurance Director Dean Cameron.
"You might be asking if they had insurance. Their checking account shows a payment was made to a company, but how do you know if there is coverage? The LIPL can help you through the process. This free online tool is available to anyone and is one of the ways insurance regulators help consumers get their entitled insurance benefits," said Cameron.
The Locator is easy to use. In your web browser, go to naic.org, hover over Consumer, and click Life Insurance Policy Locator under Tools.
- Create an account by entering your email address and name.
- Create a password.
- Wait 30 minutes.
- Login and agree to the process.
- Enter your name and address.
- Submit a search request by entering the deceased's information from the death certificate:
Your request will be stored in a secure, encrypted database where participating life insurance and annuity companies can access the information through a secure portal. You will receive a "Do Not Reply" email confirming the request details you submitted. If a policy is found and you are the beneficiary, the life insurance or annuity company will contact you directly, usually within 90 days.
If no policy is found or you are not the beneficiary, you will not be contacted. Please note that the NAIC has no policy or beneficiary information.
If you have questions or need assistance, please contact your state department of insurance. In each state, there are consumer service personnel eager to assist you. If you do not know how to contact your state department of insurance, follow this link for assistance.
As part of our state-based system of insurance regulation in the United States, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) provides expertise, data, and analysis for insurance commissioners to effectively regulate the industry and protect consumers. The U.S. standard-setting organization is governed by the chief insurance regulators from the 50 states, the District of Columbia and five U.S. territories.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- NASA is seeking proposals for sustainable lunar lander development and demonstration as the agency works toward a regular cadence of Moon landings. Through Artemis missions, NASA is preparing to return humans to the Moon, including the first woman and first person of color, for long-term scientific discovery and exploration.
Under the solicitation, Human Landing System Sustaining Lunar Development, NASA has provided requirements for companies interested in developing and demonstrating astronaut Moon landers. These efforts will pave the way for multiple companies to provide recurring Moon landing services beyond the Artemis III mission, which is planned for no earlier than 2025.
Companies selected under this contract will be required to perform one uncrewed and one crewed lunar landing demonstration. NASA will certify any lander system to meet its requirements prior to the crewed demonstration mission(s).
"Work done under this solicitation, in addition to current lander development and studies taking place, will help build the foundation for long-term deep space exploration," said Lisa Watson-Morgan, program manager for the Human Landing System Program at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. "Partnering with American companies to do that work now allows us to leverage NASA's knowledge and expertise to encourage technological innovations for a sustained presence at the Moon."
The final call for proposals comes after NASA incorporated industry feedback on the draft solicitation, released March 31, encouraging companies to send comments to help shape a key component of the agency's human exploration Artemis architecture. NASA also hosted a virtual industry day in April to present an overview of the solicitation and to provide companies an opportunity to ask clarifying questions and provide comments.
NASA's existing contract with SpaceX includes both an uncrewed and a crewed lunar landing demonstration that is part of the Artemis III mission, marking humanity's first return to the Moon in more than 50 years. The agency plans to exercise an option under this contract, known as Option B, asking the company to evolve its current Artemis III Starship Human Landing System design to meet an extended set of requirements for sustaining missions at the Moon and conduct another crewed demonstration landing.
These concurrent sustaining lander development efforts will meet NASA's needs for recurring, long-term access to the lunar surface, such as the ability to dock with Gateway for crew transfer, accommodate an increased crew size, and deliver more mass to the surface.
NASA's Artemis efforts include sending a suite of new science instruments and technology demonstrations to study the Moon, landing the first woman and first person of color on the Moon, and more. The agency will leverage its Artemis experiences and technologies to prepare for the next giant leap – sending astronauts to Mars.
Proposals for the sustainable lunar lander development and demonstration are due Nov. 15.

NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- NYSARC Columbia County Chapter ("NYSARC") confirmed today that the firm experienced a data incident in July 2022 and will issue notices to affected individuals and relevant state and federal agencies about the incident.
On July 19, 2022, NYSARC Columbia County Chapter ("NYSARC") detected irregular activity on their systems that was consistent with a typical ransomware attack. Out of an abundance of caution, NYSARC immediately began to remediate the situation including disconnecting systems, engaging data security and privacy experts, contacting law enforcement, and simultaneously beginning an investigation. Due to the complexity of the attack, the investigation is still ongoing; however, out of an abundance of caution, NYSARC is providing this notice.
Based on the information NYSARC generally collects and maintains, names, addresses, date of birth, social security number, and/or other state identification number may potentially be involved. Limited health information for clients may also be impacted. However, the investigation is ongoing and specific details as to what categories of information were involved are not yet available. Note that this describes general categories of information collected and maintained by NYSARC, and it likely includes categories that are not relevant to each individual. As soon as NYSARC is able, individual notification letters will be mailed to affected individuals with further details.
Upon becoming aware of the Incident, NYSARC immediately implemented measures to further improve the security of their systems and practices. NYSARC worked with a leading privacy and security firm to aid in their investigation and response, and is reporting this incident to relevant government agencies. NYSARC also implemented additional security protocols designed to protect their network, email environment, and systems.
The investigation is ongoing and the identities of individuals who were individually affected, if any, is not yet known. However, out of an abundance of caution,NYSARC encourages individuals to remain vigilant against incidents of identity theft and fraud, to review account statements and explanation of benefits forms, and to monitor free credit reports for suspicious activity and to detect errors. Under U.S. law, individuals are entitled to one (1) free credit report annually from each of the three major credit reporting bureaus. Additional information and resources are outlined below.
Moreover, information regarding identity theft, fraud alerts, security freezes, and the steps an individual can take to protect personal information may be obtained by contacting the consumer reporting agencies, the Federal Trade Commission, or the appropriate state Attorney General. The Federal Trade Commission can be reached at: 600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20580; www.identitytheft.gov; 1-877-ID-THEFT (1-877-438-4338); and TTY: 1-866-653-4261. The Federal Trade Commission also encourages those who discover that their information has been misused to file a complaint with them. Individuals can obtain further information on how to file such a complaint by calling 1-877-438-4338. Individuals should file a police report if they are a victim of identity theft or fraud. To file a report with law enforcement for identity theft, an individual will likely need to provide some proof that they have been a victim.
