The FBI and Justice Department recently disrupted the activities of a hacking group that was sponsored by the North Korean government and that targeted U.S. hospitals with ransomware. The agencies were able to recover half a million dollars in ransom payments. That's according to Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco. She revealed new details of the attacks during a speech in New York on Tuesday. She encouraged organizations hit by ransomware to report the crime to law enforcement, both so that officials can investigate and so that they can help victim companies try to get ransom payments back. In one case, Monaco said, a Kansas hospital that paid a ransom last year after being attacked by ransomware also contacted the FBI, which traced the payment and identified China-based money launderers who assisted the North Korean hackers in cashing out the illicit proceeds. The FBI recovered half a million dollars, including the entire ransom payment from the hospital, the Associated Press reported.	https://www.kivitv.com/news/national/us-disrupts-north-korean-hackers-that-targeted-hospitals	2022-07-20 04:22:43	1	https://www.kivitv.com/news/national/us-disrupts-north-korean-hackers-that-targeted-hospitals
(KTLA) — A man in California is without a bicycle after another man took the bike he claimed was his in a violent altercation Sunday. In video shared with KTLA, one man can be seen riding a bike around midday and pulling a cart loaded down with luggage in an alley in Venice. As the cyclist hears another man yell, “Give me my bike!” he slows down and stops to refute the other man’s assertion. As the cyclist begins to make his case, the other man, who is armed with what appears to be a stick or pipe, strikes the luggage with his weapon. As the armed man repeatedly shouts “Give me my bike!” along with profanities, he grabs at the bike’s handlebars, causing the cyclist to fall to the ground. The man with the weapon then pulls the bike away from the cyclist and begins to walk away with it as passersby try to intervene on behalf of the man on the ground. As the confrontation exits the screen, the cyclist remains lying on the ground, appearing confused. It remains unclear if the cyclist got the bicycle back or if the second man was correct in asserting that the bike was his. The Los Angeles Police Department did not have any information to share on the incident.	https://cw33.com/news/nexstar-media-wire/give-me-my-bike-scuffle-over-bicycle-in-california-caught-on-video/	2022-09-12 16:09:01	0	https://cw33.com/news/nexstar-media-wire/give-me-my-bike-scuffle-over-bicycle-in-california-caught-on-video/

By ADAM SCHRECK and FOSTER KLUG Associated Press NUSA DUA, Indonesia (AP) — Members of the Group of 20 leading economies ended their summit Wednesday with a declaration of firm condemnation of the war in Ukraine and a warning that the conflict is making an already delicate world economy worse. The summit’s closing statement was noteworthy because world leaders managed to highlight a denunciation of the war despite the divisions among the group, which includes not only Russia but also countries such as China and India that have significant trade ties with Moscow and have stopped short of outright criticism of the war. “Most members strongly condemned the war in Ukraine and stressed it is causing immense human suffering and exacerbating existing fragilities in the global economy,” the statement said. The use of the words “most members” was a telling sign of the divisions, as was an acknowledgement that “there were other views and different assessments” and that the G-20 is “not the forum to resolve security issues.” Even so, the statement’s use of language from a March U.N. resolution that deplored “in the strongest terms the aggression by the Russian Federation against Ukraine” and demanded “its complete and unconditional withdrawal” from Ukrainian territory was a “big breakthrough,” according to John Kirton, director of the G20 Research Group. “Here the G-20 left no doubt about who it knew had started the war and how it should end,” he said in an interview. He noted an “active shift” by China and India, which joined the “democratic side of the great immediate geopolitical divide.” The conflict in Ukraine loomed large over the two-day summit held on the tropical island of Bali in Indonesia. News early Wednesday of an explosion that rocked eastern Poland prompted U.S. President Joe Biden to hastily arrange an emergency meeting with G-7 and NATO members at the summit. Biden said it was “unlikely” Russia fired the missile but added: “I’m going to make sure we find out exactly what happened.” Poland and NATO’s head said later Wednesday the missile strike appeared to be unintentional and was probably launched by air defenses in Ukraine as Russia was bombarding the country in an attack that savaged its power grid. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, however, disputed the preliminary findings and asked for further investigation. Russia denied involvement. Biden was joined at the G-20 by leaders including Chinese President Xi Jinping, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and new British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. Russian President Vladimir Putin did not attend. On Tuesday, Russia pounded Ukrainian cities with dozens of missile strikes in its biggest barrage yet on the country’s energy facilities, which have been repeatedly struck as winter approaches. Sunak, speaking to reporters at the close of the meeting, called the attacks “the cruel and unrelenting reality of Putin’s war.” “While other world leaders were working together to tackle the greatest challenges our people face, Putin was launching indiscriminate attacks on civilians in Ukraine,” Sunak said. The war, he added, will “continue to devastate the global economy.” The careful wording of the final G-20 statement reflected tensions at the gathering and the challenge faced by the United States and its allies as they try to isolate Putin’s government. Several G-20 members, including host Indonesia, are wary of becoming entangled in disputes between bigger powers. Indonesian President Joko Widodo told reporters that the portion of the declaration dealing with the war was the most contentious part of the negotiations and that discussions were “very, very tough.” The final product was seen by some as a strong rebuke of a war that has killed thousands, heightened global security tensions and disrupted the world economy. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said the G-20 summit’s “surprisingly clear words” on Ukraine “wouldn’t have been possible if important countries hadn’t helped us to come together this way — that includes India and it also includes, for example, South Africa.” “This is something which shows that there are many in the world who don’t think this war is right, who condemn it, even if they abstained in the votes at the United Nations for various reasons,” Scholz said. “And I am sure that this is one of the results of this summit: the Russian president stands almost alone in the world with his policy.” Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, who led the Russian delegation in place of Putin, denounced the Biden administration push to condemn Moscow. China’s support for a public statement critical of Russia surprised some. Beijing likely did so because Chinese President Xi Jinping “doesn’t want to back a loser” after Russia’s defeat in the Ukrainian city of Kherson, said Kirton, the analyst. “He knows he needs G-20 cooperation to address the many growing vulnerabilities that China now confronts,” from climate change to the pandemic to the nation’s “financial fragility of its over-leveraged housing and property markets.” The G-20 was founded in 1999 originally as a forum to address economic challenges. It includes Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States and the European Union. Spain holds a permanent guest seat. The 16-page statement also expressed deep concern on a range of issues, including food and energy crises made worse by the war in Ukraine. The leaders said that amid food shortages and rising prices they’d take “urgent actions to save lives, prevent hunger and malnutrition, particularly to address the vulnerabilities of developing countries.” Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan expressed hope that a vital deal brokered by Turkey and the U.N. to export Ukrainian grain would be extended before it expires Sunday. The July deal allowed major grain producer Ukraine to resume exports from ports that had been largely blocked because of the war. “As of now, I am of the opinion that the (grain agreement) will continue,” Erdogan said. “As soon as we return, we will continue our talks, especially with Mr. Putin. Because the way to peace is through dialogue.” The emergency meeting Wednesday included the leaders of the G-7, which includes Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the European Union, along with the president of the European Council and the prime ministers of NATO allies Spain and the Netherlands. Biden held a separate meeting later with Sunak, in their first extended conversation since the British leader took office last month. “We’re going to continue to support Ukraine as long as Russia continues their aggression,” Biden said alongside Sunak, adding that he was “glad we’re on the same page” in backing Ukraine. Biden said the leaders condemned the latest Russian attacks, which have caused widespread blackouts. “The moment when the world came together at the G-20 to urge de-escalation, Russia continues to escalate in Ukraine, while we’re meeting,” Biden said. ___ Associated Press writers Seung Min Kim, Zeke Miller and Niniek Karmini in Nusa Dua and Geir Moulson in Berlin contributed to this report.

China's Xi voices support for talks to resolve international disputes, opposes use of sanctions Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said sanctions 'only exacerbate conflicts' Chinese President Xi Jinping said Thursday that his government supports talks to resolve international disputes. He said China remains "committed to respecting the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries" and non-interference in their internal affairs. Xi also decried "wanton use" of sanctions. "We stay committed to peacefully resolving differences and disputes between countries through dialogue and consultation, support all efforts conducive to the peaceful settlement of crises, reject double standards, and oppose the wanton use of unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction," Xi said in a televised address. China has maintained its support for Russia despite the war in Ukraine and has refused to call the conflict an invasion. It claimed Russia was provoked by NATO’s expansion. It has also abstained or voted with Russia on recent proposals brought before the United Nations. China says it maintains normal economic ties between the countries, even as other nations have imposed economic sanctions on Russia. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said Thursday that China has "always opposed unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction that lack a basis in international law and are not authorized by the (United Nations) Security Council." LLOYD AUSTIN MEETS WITH CHINESE COUNTERPART, ENDING 15-MONTH SILENT STREAK "Sanctions are not the right way to de-escalate tensions, end wars or avoid casualties, but will only exacerbate conflicts, increase spillover and make the world pay more," he said. U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin spoke with his Chinese counterpart on Wednesday for the first time since taking up the post more than a year ago. Austin, who calls China the U.S. military’s leading long-term challenge, requested the telephone conversation with Gen. Wei Fenghe after months of failed efforts to speak with Gen. Xu Qiliang, the highest ranking uniformed officer in the Communist Party military structure. Notably, Xi met with Russian President Vladimir Putin less than a month before the Feb. 24 invasion. Both countries then issued a joint statement affirming their "no limits" relationship. Earlier this month, China said that its military staged exercises in areas opposite Taiwan in response to a meeting between U.S. lawmakers and Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen. The lawmakers also visited Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. The trips come amid continued fears that China may move to invade Taiwan.

Delta Air Lines executives say they’re not seeing the drop in average airfares that federal officials believe are contributing to lower inflation. The Labor Department’s latest consumer price index this week showed average airfares falling 8% from May to June on a seasonally adjusted basis. “We’re not seeing the same, and it’s a different data point than what we have,” Delta President Glen Hauenstein said on the airline’s second-quarter earnings call. He dismissed the Labor Department’s methodology as a “ample of a sample.” Analysts agreed with Delta’s assessment. JPMorgan’s Jamie Baker said the government figure excludes corporate and most premium travel and is drawn heavily from discount-airline service. He blamed the CPI number for causing airline stocks to fall Wednesday, when the Labor Department report came out. Delta executives seemed far more willing to accept the Labor Department’s calculation that average fares last month were 19% lower than they were in June of last year. CEO Ed Bastian said it is important to remember that at this time last year, many people were just beginning to travel after two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, but airlines weren’t yet fully staffed. As a result, demand was far stronger than supply. “People didn’t care where they were going or how much they spent. They just wanted to go someplace,” he said. “We were seeing fares up 30%, 40%, 50%” for some domestic flights. “That’s obviously not sustainable.” The Labor Department’s monthly CPI report indicated that lower prices for airline tickets, gasoline and used cars in June helped produce the lowest inflation since early 2021 — 3% compared with a year earlier.	https://www.myarklamiss.com/news/business/ap-business/ap-delta-executives-say-theyre-not-seeing-the-drop-in-airfares-that-the-government-reports/	2023-07-14 14:55:09	1	https://www.myarklamiss.com/news/business/ap-business/ap-delta-executives-say-theyre-not-seeing-the-drop-in-airfares-that-the-government-reports/

SAN ANTONIO — By the numbers the UTSA Baseball team has won seventy five percent of their games to this point. Their overall record is (28-9) with one month left in the regular season. The Roadrunners were left disappointed and out of the NCAA Tournament field last year, so improving their RPI, currently 39th in the midweek, is the mission between now and the Conference USA Tournament. "I know we are good," said Head Coach Patrick Hallmark. "I don't mind saying that. We are a good team," he continued. "I'm not surprised we're good. I'm with these guys every single day. They are good at baseball." UTSA fell short Tuesday night in the I-35 series with Texas State visiting the 'Bird Bath', but optimism is still high as UTSA is currently at the top of the C-USA standings. The Roadrunners are inside the Top 25 this week, and those are the sorts of things that can impress the NCAA Tournament selection committee next month. "Obviously the committee makes their decisions," said infielder Leyton Barry. "All we can do is play the games that are in front of us." The Roadrunners hit the road this week for three at Florida International starting Friday night in Miami. "We wanna kinda sneak into the top twenty five of the RPI (rankings)," said catcher Josh Killeen. "I think would guarantee us a shot into regionals." Barry that the time is now to leave no doubt that UTSA belongs in the post season field of sixty four. "We as players just focus on the games in front of us, and we know have an important stretch right here and now that we can go show what we are about. That's exactly what we are gonna do." The Roadrunners play six of their next seven on the road. #BirdsUp	https://www.kens5.com/article/sports/utsa-baseball-looks-to-continue-winning-ways/273-2f09a43e-5917-468c-99a4-b306398713ec	2023-04-22 02:28:18	1	https://www.kens5.com/article/sports/utsa-baseball-looks-to-continue-winning-ways/273-2f09a43e-5917-468c-99a4-b306398713ec
The redesigned 2024 Ford Ranger sails into U.S. showrooms this summer, and when it arrives there will be a fire-breathing Ranger Raptor available for the first time. The Ranger Raptor already offers plenty of performance in stock form thanks to a turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 pumping out 405 hp, but there will likely be some buyers left unsatisfied, even with this rating. Hennessey Performance has a solution in the form of its 2024 VelociRaptor 500 Ranger upgrade revealed on Tuesday. As the name suggests, the upgrade takes power up to the 500-hp level, which it achieves via a high-flow intake, a larger intercooler, and engine management software. The mechanical package is the same as Hennessey’s VelociRaptor 500 Bronco upgrade for the Bronco Raptor, which Hennessey launched last year. According to the company, the Ranger Raptor is lighter than the Bronco Raptor, resulting in an agile truck. “The VelociRaptor 500 Ranger is an excellent choice for the pickup enthusiast who doesn’t need the capacity of our full-size VelociRaptor 600 F-150,” John Hennessey, Hennessey’s CEO and founder, said in a statement. “The mid-size pickup is incredibly capable and very agile.” Also included in the upgrade is a blow-off valve, custom bumpers, LED driving lights, body graphics, and Hennessey’s own 18-inch wheel design wrapped in 35-inch off-road tires. Items for the interior include head rests with a “Hennessey” script, custom floor mats, and a numbered build plaque. These upgrades are joined by the Ranger Raptor’s standard 10-speed automatic and all-wheel-drive system with locking front and rear differentials. The mid-size performance pickup also comes with Fox’s 2.5-inch Live Valve internal bypass shocks. Hennessey is still developing the 2024 VelociRaptor 500 Ranger. The company expects to start deliveries in the fourth quarter. The price of the upgrade is $24,950. With the 2024 Ranger Raptor starting at $56,960, with shipping, you’re looking at a total speed of at least $81,910.

An armed teen was was arrested in Hoboken Tuesday afternoon and charged with stealing a woman’s purse, authorities said. The purse-snatching occurred in the area of Second and Grand streets, Hoboken Lt. Jonathan Mecka said. The teen, whose name and age were withheld because he’s a minor, was taken into custody a short time after the incident. When he was caught, the teen was found in possession of the victim’s purse and a firearm. He was charged with theft from a person, and weapon possession, said Mecka, who added that the firearm was not used in the theft.	https://www.nj.com/hudson/2022/11/armed-teen-stolen-womans-purse-hoboken-police-say.html	2022-11-23 16:04:19	1	https://www.nj.com/hudson/2022/11/armed-teen-stolen-womans-purse-hoboken-police-say.html
Before Tatiana Maslany played She-Hulk, she was starred in Orphan Black, a modern sci-fi classic. Orphan Black is best watched without knowing too much going in. Just know that Maslany won an Emmy for the unbelievable amount of work she put into the five seasons, including becoming a producer later on. If you're lucky enough to live in Australia, you can watch on streaming service Stan. Folks in the US will unfortunately have to pay for the show, after it was removed from Prime Video. The show begins when Sarah Manning, a British con-artist who wears The Clash T-shirts, witnesses a woman jump in front of a train. The twist: this woman looks exactly like her. Are they long-lost identical twins? Or is something stranger going on? Sarah is sucked into a conspiracy involving scientific institutes, religious orders and a covert military operation. A single mom, she tackles it all with a spit-fire attitude that occasionally gets her into even more trouble. Orphan Black invests deeply in its multiple characters, clearly chiselling out their lives in the Toronto setting. Felix (Jordan Gavaris) is the charming counterpoint to Sarah's wildness, a gay painter and sex worker who puts up with the insane, life-threatening bad guys Sarah unintentionally leads to his doorstep. Donny (Kristian Bruun) is a standout as a bumbling husband who's the epitome of getting into situations where you're in over your head. A sugar-obsessed assassin, cutthroat soccer mom, whip-smart scientist and more enrich the population of this multilayered world. The characters ensure Orphan Black shines: Amid the occasional stark violence, cool science and chilly cinematography, these loveable, underdog heroes bring a cluelessness that charms your socks off. It all results in brilliant hilarity. When Orphan Black premiered on BBC America in 2013, it arrived as a fully formed package, a slick bundle of tension-loaded writing, polished visuals and a memorable supporting cast. Admittedly, the best moments are front-loaded in seasons 1 and 2, but the entire five-season run enriches its world of scientists, police detectives and military operatives. And its soundtrack: Any soundtrack worthy of a Spotify playlist is a box ticker. I Got You Babe is perfectly timed over an assassin smiling at Sarah, murder flashing in her eyes. The Clash and New Order join tracks from local Canadian bands vibing out of their garages in the Toronto setting. We haven't even covered Orphan Black's bigger themes. That's because the nature vs. nurture debate, identity and ownership over one's body are delivered with the entertainment factor notched up to 100. You barely realize how deep the bigger issues become until you're already there. Put plainly, Orphan Black is a must-see sci-fi gem. It saw Maslany gain much-deserved recognition and a role in a Marvel series. Go back and see where it all began.	https://www.cnet.com/culture/entertainment/more-people-should-watch-this-underrated-sci-fi-show/	2022-08-30 00:58:18	1	https://www.cnet.com/culture/entertainment/more-people-should-watch-this-underrated-sci-fi-show/
In the thick of Kansas’ contentious debate over abortion rights, the anonymous text messages arriving on the eve of the big referendum this week seemed clear enough. “Voting YES on the Amendment will give women a choice.” The only problem: It was a lie, transmitted by text message Monday, a day before voters were to decide a ballot amendment seen as the first test of voter sentiment after the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade. Voters in the conservative state with deep ties to the anti-abortion movement ended up rejecting the measure. “We’ve certainly seen dirty tricks, but never this level of deception aimed to make people vote the opposite way than they intend to,” said Davis Hammet, president of Loud Light, a youth voter registration and engagement organization in Kansas. The misleading texts sent to Kansas Democrats highlights the growing problem of political disinformation sent by automated text message, a ubiquitous communication system that presents new opportunities for those who would attempt to deceive voters. To be sure, ballot initiatives are often confounding — sometimes by design, so voters will support a measure they actually oppose. But text messages are emerging as an increasingly popular means of spreading disinformation about voting and elections. That reflects a broader embrace of texting by political campaigns and organizations, a trend that accelerated when the pandemic forced campaigns to find new ways to engage with voters. People in the United States received nearly 6 billion political texts in 2021, according to an analysis by RoboKiller, a mobile phone app that lets users block text and voice spam. That’s after a steady rise throughout the 2020 election that saw political spam texts increase by 20% a month. “There’s been an explosion of political text messages since 2020 and since then the political messages have stuck around,” said RoboKiller’s vice president, Giulia Porter. Two days after the 2020 election, thousands of anonymous texts were sent to supporters of then-President Donald Trump, stating that election officials in Philadelphia were rigging the vote. The text urged the recipients to show up where ballots were being counted to “show their support” for Trump. The anonymous texts were later linked to a texting company run by one of Trump’s top campaign officials. The same year, someone used text messages to spread false rumors of a national COVID-19 lockdown. Federal officials later blamed a foreign government for trying to stoke fear and division. Text messages can offer specific advantages over social media when it comes to disseminating misinformation without leaving tracks, according to Darren Linvill, a Clemson University professor who researches disinformation techniques. People also view text messages in a different way than social media, Linvill said. Social media is designed to reach the widest audience possible, but text messages are sent to particular phone numbers. That suggests the sender knows the recipient in some way and is specifically targeting that person. “People aren’t as used to distrusting information on a text message,” Linvill said. “It’s more personal. Someone out there has your phone number and they’re reaching out to touch you with this information.” While large social media companies have had varying success in curbing misinformation on their platforms, text messages are unmoderated. Because they aim for maximum exposure, disinformation campaigns using social media are easier to spot, study and expose, while text messages are private, one-to-one communications. Software allowing groups to send hundreds or thousands of texts using fake numbers makes it even more difficult to find out the identity of the sender. The texts sent in Kansas used a messaging platform made by Twilio, a San Francisco-based communications company. Twilio would not identify the customer who sent the texts, but a spokesman said the sender had been suspended from its service for violating its rules on disinformation. The ballot amendment asked Kansans to decide on a proposed change to the state constitution that would clear the way for its Republican-controlled Legislature to more strictly regulate or ban abortion. A “yes” vote would have supported amending the constitution to remove the right to abortion. A “no” vote opposed amending the state constitution, maintaining a right to abortion. Lindsay Ford, the associate director of a Kansas nonprofit voter engagement group called The Voter Network, noted that the texts came at a critical time, when someone looking to manipulate voters might have the best chance of succeeding. “This is when voters who aren’t super engaged start to pay attention, in the last couple of days before the election,” Ford said. “So if they’re looking for something and haven’t seen information anywhere else and that was the first or only text they received, I can see how that could lead people down the wrong path.”	https://www.binghamtonhomepage.com/science-and-technology/dirty-tricks-in-kansas-via-text-does-yes-actually-mean-no/	2022-08-05 00:56:28	0	https://www.binghamtonhomepage.com/science-and-technology/dirty-tricks-in-kansas-via-text-does-yes-actually-mean-no/
WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) — As Democrats and Republicans spar over this year’s annual defense spending bill, the biggest obstacle is the current COVID-19 vaccine mandate on military service members. Republicans are threatening to block the bill unless Democrats end the vaccine mandate. In the House, Democrats announced a deal to repeal the mandate Tuesday afternoon, The Hill reports. In the Senate, the issue remained up for debate. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is among the group of senators pushing to scrap the provision. “That ought to be your choice,” Cruz said. “So that we stop the Biden administration from firing active duty military if they decline to take the COVID vaccine.” On Tuesday, Minority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., signaled he’s making little progress. “We’re at a pretty significant impasse,” McConnell said. Senate Majority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., justified the policy. “We’re still working on the bill,” Schumer said. “COVID vaccines have saved lives. The military has requirements about other vaccines for decades and there hasn’t been a problem.” After consulting with the Pentagon, the White House said it supports keeping the requirement, “to keep our service members safe,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said. But John Bowes, an Air Force pilot who is one of thousands of military officers who refused to take the vaccine, is urging Democrats to reconsider. He said — while he doesn’t speak for the military — he thinks Congress should not only end the rule, but reinstate service members who were discharged as a result. “We need to find some way to make this right,” Bowes said. “I’m not fighting this because I want to get out the military, I’m not fighting this because I want to stick it to anybody, I simply just want to continue to do my job and live my dream.” Lawmakers have until the end of the year to find a solution before current military funding runs out. Republicans argue the mandate is interfering with military recruitment. On Tuesday, the defense secretary said there is no hard data to support that.	https://cw33.com/news/washington-dc-bureau/gop-pushes-to-ditch-military-covid-19-vaccine-requirement/	2022-12-07 00:07:46	1	https://cw33.com/news/washington-dc-bureau/gop-pushes-to-ditch-military-covid-19-vaccine-requirement/
VESTAVIA HILLS, Ala. — A lone suspect fired on a small group meeting at a suburban church near one of Alabama's major cities Thursday evening, fatally wounding two people and injuring a third before being taken into custody, authorities said. The attack occurred at Saint Stephen's Episcopal Church in the Birmingham suburb of Vestavia Hills, Police Capt. Shane Ware said. He said officers rushed to the chuch after dispatchers received a call reporting an active shooter at the church at 6:22 p.m. “From what we've gathered from the circumstances of this evening, a lone suspect entered a small church group meeting and began shooting. Three people were shot. Two people are deceased. One person is being treated for an unknown injury at a local hospital," Ware said at a late Thursday news briefing. He added that a suspect was in custody and that there was “no threat to the community at this time." At an earlier briefing, he had initially said one person had died and two wounded by the shooting had been hospitalized. Meanwhile, he has declined to identify the suspect or the victims or provide further details of the attack, saying his next briefing would be Friday. The FBI, U.S. Marshals Service and the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco and Explosives dispatched agents to the scene. Investigators remained hours past nightfall, with yellow police tape cordoning off the church complex and emergency police and fire vehicles with flashing lights blocked the route to the church. Nearby, people huddled and prayed. The Rev. Kelley Hudlow, an Episcopal priest in the Diocese of Alabama, told broadcast outlet WBRC that the church and the community were stunned by the shooting. “It is shocking. Saint Stephen’s is a communty built on love and prayers and grace and they are going to come together," she said in a live interview with the station. “People of all faiths are coming together to pray to hope for healing." She added that the church was receiving supportive messages from all over the U.S. and the world. "We need everybody out there. Pray, think, meditate and send love to this community because we are going to need all of it," she said. The church’s website had listed a “Boomers Potluck” for Thursday night. “There will be no program, simply eat and have time for fellowship,” the flyer read. News outlet al.com said two wounded people had been rushed to UAB Hospital in Birmingham — before police reported one of them had died. It was the latest in a string of deadly shootings that has rattled the nation. On Saturday thousands of people rallied in the U.S. and at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., to renew calls for stricter gun control measures after recent deadly mass shootings from Buffalo, New York, to Uvalde, Texas. Survivors of mass shootings and other incidents of gun violence also have lobbied legislators and testified on Capitol Hill this month. Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey issued a statement lamenting what she called the shocking and tragic loss of life at the church. Though she said she was glad to hear the suspect was in custody, she added, “This should never happen — in a church, in a store, in the city or anywhere." Vestavia Hills is a residential community just southeast of Birmingham, one of Alabama's two most populous cities.	https://www.kgw.com/article/news/nation-world/2-dead-in-alabama-church-shooting/507-9dc1c3a6-b9b4-4986-b86a-d67498259c26	2022-06-17 03:58:26	1	https://www.kgw.com/article/news/nation-world/2-dead-in-alabama-church-shooting/507-9dc1c3a6-b9b4-4986-b86a-d67498259c26
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., April 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Adge Pharmaceuticals ("Adge") has entered into a license agreement with Korea-based Cyan Bio, Inc. ("Cyan"). Cyan will receive exclusive rights for commercialization of elocalcitol in key territories in Asia for the treatment of the Rett Syndrome and Osteogenesis imperfecta. The territories include Korea, Greater China, Japan, India and Southeast Asian countries. In parallel with the licensing agreement, Cyan will make an equity investment in Adge. As announced earlier (https://adgepharm.com/news/mar-22-2022/), Adge has secured a global license to RO269228, a clinical stage oral small molecule originally developed by Roche for osteoporosis. RO269228, also known as elocalcitol, is a vitamin D analog which has demonstrated efficacy and safety in multiple Phase 2 clinical trials. Furthermore, its mechanism of actions are highly relevant to addressing pathogenesis of multiple rare diseases including Rett Syndrome and Osteogenesis imperfecta that Adge is targeting as priority indications. Dr. Kalev Kask, CEO and founder of Adge, commented, "Partnership with Cyan is an important step towards broadening the international reach of Adge as it continues to develop elocalcitol, its key asset, for the treatment of the Rett Syndrome and Osteogenesis imperfecta, two rare pediatric diseases for which Asian countries are a market of growing significance. We are extremely pleased to have been able to partner with Cyan as a specialist of those markets". Michelle Kim, CEO of Cyan, added, "We are delighted to partner with Adge in developing elocalcitol to address a significant unmet need to benefit patients in Asia." Rett syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is caused by a mutation in the MECP2 gene and almost exclusively affects girls. It is characterized by normal early growth and development followed by a slowdown in development, slowed brain and head growth, loss of purposeful use of the hands, distinctive hand movements, problems with walking, seizures, autistic behavior and intellectual disability. Rett syndrome is the second most prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder in girls after Down syndrome affecting an estimated 1 in 9,000 to 10,000 females. Osteogenesis imperfecta, also known as brittle bone disease, is a group of genetic diseases that primarily affect the bones. People with this condition have bones that fracture easily, often from mild trauma or with no apparent cause. Multiple fractures are common, and in severe cases, can occur even before birth. Osteogenesis imperfecta affects approximately 1 in 10,000 to 20,000 people worldwide.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Authorities aired the results Monday of the investigation of an Election Day 2020 police shooting that killed a man in a vehicle after the man killed two women, wounded a teenage girl and abducted a 12-year-old boy who died when he was shot as police approached. The hearing about the Henderson police shooting of Jason Neo Bourne, a 38-year-old who changed his name because he admired a movie character, suggested that Bourne shot the boy several times, including in the head, after police opened fire into the boy’s family’s Cadillac Escalade. Bourne, sitting in the driver’s seat, fired seven shots with a .40 caliber handgun, according to evidence presented by Henderson police Detective Richard Christopher, the only investigator questioned during the hearing dubbed a public fact-finding review. The proceeding, overseen by an attorney former state Assembly member and presented by a county prosecutor, did not conclusively answer whether one or more of the 27 shots fired by police struck the boy sitting in the passenger seat next to Bourne — who continued talking with a 911 dispatcher until gunfire erupted and was heard exclaiming “Yeah,” as officers began a second volley of fire. However, “We believe Jason Bourne was responsible for the boy’s wounds,” Christopher said after summarizing results of autopsies of the four people who died that day. Killed were Dianne Hawatmeh, 38, the boy’s mother; family housekeeper Veronica Muniz, 33, of Las Vegas; and the boy, Joseph Hawatmeh. The boy’s 16-year-old sister was shot several times and remains a paraplegic, family attorney Roger Croteau said Monday. “We’re not making a statement one way or another who shot Joseph,” Croteau said following the emotional four-hour proceeding at the Clark County Commission auditorium. Croteau is handling a federal lawsuit that the boy’s father, Iehab Hawatmeh filed in October in Las Vegas against Henderson police, departmental supervisors and the seven officers who fired shots that day. “We do know that (police) took the first shot,” the attorney said. “One second later, the car was lit up with … contagion firing. They rushed the vehicle and didn’t wait for SWAT or a negotiator to arrive.” Bourne was armed with a .40-caliber handgun, and police used 9mm handguns and .223-caliber tactical rifles. Medical examiners did not retrieve identifiable bullets from the boy’s body, according to the investigation. The non-judicial public review is provided by Clark County law instead of a coroner’s inquest following a police-involved death if the district attorney makes a preliminary finding that involved officers will not face criminal prosecution. The officers themselves do not take part. Police body-worn camera video and 911 audio aired Monday offered a heart-wrenching and dramatic account of 30 minutes of confusion that officials said may have stemmed from Bourne’s anger about a noise complaint that his downstairs neighbors made days before the shooting. It also highlighted apparent delusions and ramblings of a man who called police 911 from the Escalade, changed the pitch of his voice several times, identified himself variously as a character from the future, “not from this planet” and the super villain Bane from the movie, “Batman,” and demanded that police provide him with a helicopter within minutes. Joseph Hawatmeh could be heard in the background as Bourne abruptly interrupted apparent train-of-thought comments to the 911 dispatcher several times, uttering the phrase, “XM Satellite Radio 1.1 Gigawatts.” Bourne had no criminal history and legally purchased his gun before he legally changed his name in 2014 from Christopher Curry, said Christopher, the police detective. Bourne served nearly 15 years in the U.S. Air Force in various countries before being honorably discharged in 2017, Christopher said. He was a disabled veteran whose roommate, a retired Air Force member, told police was writing a book, regularly used marijuana and sometimes covered apartment windows fearing that others could see in. The police detective said Bourne’s computer files showed he “strongly believed in QAnon theories,” including “that celebrities wear lifelike masks but are actually politicians that were part of a secret pedophile society that controlled the world.” Among Bourne’s handwritten notes, Christopher found references to Bourne calling himself a superhero saving the world. Iehab Hawatmeh dabbed his eyes several times as he sat through the four-hour proceeding with Croteau with three other family members. Croteau later said they were not surprised by the material presented to the public. He said he believed the family has a strong wrongful death, negligence and civil rights case against police in federal court. Attorneys representing Henderson have filed documents seeking the dismissal of the lawsuit, which seeks unspecified unspecified monetary damages. Court hearings have not been scheduled. “As difficult as the situation was, my client believes the death of his boy wasn’t necessary,” Croteau said. “His family has suffered badly.”	https://www.koin.com/news/national/ap-officials-air-findings-in-nevada-shooting-that-left-4-dead/	2023-01-24 03:58:40	1	https://www.koin.com/news/national/ap-officials-air-findings-in-nevada-shooting-that-left-4-dead/

"Think Brita filter, but a thousand times better." That’s what engineering professor Dr. Madjid Mohseni of the University of British Columbia said about a new water treatment that reduces forever chemicals from drinking water. PFAS (per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are a group of chemicals that are present in a wide array of common consumer products, from toilet paper to clothing. PFAS are known as "forever chemicals" because they don't break down in the environment or in our bodies. Studies have linked exposure to PFAS to adverse health effects. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says investigations into how exposure to PFAS can be harmful are still being conducted. The CDC notes that PFAS are in food and the environment, making it unlikely to eliminate exposure entirely. To rid water of forever chemicals, Mohseni’s team created an adsorbing material capable of trapping and holding all the PFAS present in the water supply, the University of British Columbia said. The PFAS are later destroyed using special electrochemical and photochemical techniques, the university said. "Our adsorbing media captures up to 99% of PFAS particles and can also be regenerated and potentially reused," he said. "This means that when we scrub off the PFAS from these materials, we do not end up with more highly toxic solid waste that will be another major environmental challenge." SEE MORE: EPA to limit toxic 'forever chemicals' in drinking water According to the Environmental Protection Agency,PFAS can be found in drinking water. But the EPA said it's unknown how to effectively rid drinking water of forever chemicals. The University of British Columbia study isn’t the only attempt to use filters to eliminate PFAS from water. Last year, the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences spotlighted CycloPure, Inc’s filters,which can rid up to 65 gallons (700 single-use water bottles) of PFAS with one filter.

Students sue for review, changes after Oxford High shooting WEST BLOOMFIELD, Mich. (AP) — About 20 students at a Michigan high school where four students were killed in a mass shooting say their constitutional rights to safety and education have been violated and that they want changes to ensure security at school, a law firm representing them said Friday. The federal lawsuit being filed Friday names the Oxford Community School District, its former superintendent and other officials. It seeks an independent review and policy changes, including increased transparency and communication from the district. The Associated Press sent an email seeking comment from the district. Ethan Crumbley, 16, has been charged with murder and terrorism in the Nov. 30 shootings at Oxford High School, about 30 miles (50 kilometers) north of Detroit, that also left six other students and a teacher wounded. He faces trial in November. His parents are accused of providing him with access to the gun he used and are awaiting trial for involuntary manslaughter. The students’ lawsuit demands the school district implement a “fully transparent and independent third-party investigation of the actions and events leading up to the shooting” and what it calls an end to the “practice of concealing and minimizing threats of violence.” The lawsuit doesn’t seek financial damages. Other lawsuits following the shooting have sought millions of dollars, saying that the violence could have been prevented. The latest lawsuit also asks the district to stop returning students to class when they pose a risk of harm to themselves or others. On the morning of the shooting, Ethan Crumbley’s parents were summoned to the school and confronted with his drawings of a handgun and the words: “The thoughts won’t stop. Help me.” Authorities said the parents refused to take him home after the 13-minute meeting. Rumors of threats and threatening behavior in the weeks leading up to the shooting were ignored and minimized by school officials, said Alicia Feltz, whose daughter will be a freshman at the high school this fall. “They desensitized and diminished the threats that walked alongside our children in the hallways.” “None of us want to be here right now,” Feltz added. “We have kindly and firmly asked for change and now we’re demanding it.” The parents supporting their children in the lawsuit are known as #change4oxford. Several told reporters that the Oxford School Board has repeatedly declined a review by Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s office. The district announced last month that it was hiring a law firm and an independent investigations firm to conduct its own review. “My fear, now, is they will use attorney-client privilege to withhold pertinent information for the review,” said April Ventline, whose son attends Oxford High. “I don’t have faith or trust we will get a clear and honest review.” ___ For more of the AP’s coverage of the Michigan school shooting: https://apnews.com/hub/oxford-high-school-shooting Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.

NEW YORK (AP) — A federal judge showed growing impatience Thursday with FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s use of the internet while on bail, suggesting that incarceration might eventually be the most effective way to prevent him from communicating on electronic devices in ways that can’t be traced. Judge Lewis A. Kaplan did not immediately change a $250 million bail package that lets Bankman-Fried live with his parents in Palo Alto, California, while preparing for trial on charges that he cheated investors and looted customer deposits at FTX, his cryptocurrency trading platform. But he raised the possibility for the first time that jail might be the only way to ensure Bankman-Fried won’t outfox the government with ways to use electronic devices in ways that can’t be tracked. “There is a solution, but it’s not one anybody’s proposed yet,” Kaplan said as Bankman-Fried sat passively at the defense table. He then noted that there may be many devices in Bankman-Fried’s family home that the government will not be tracking, even with any new rules imposed on his bail conditions. “Why am I being asked to set him loose in this garden of electronic devices?” he asked prosecutors. Assistant U.S. Attorney Nicolas Roos said a more “drastic alternative” would be to ban Bankman-Fried’s use of all electronic devices, but he added that it would be difficult for him to prepare for a trial tentatively set for October if that were to occur. The judge noted that Bankman-Fried, according to prosecutors, “has done things that suggests to me that maybe he has committed or attempted to commit a federal felony while on release.” Kaplan was alluding to a claim by prosecutors that Bankman-Fried sent an encrypted message over the Signal texting app on Jan. 15 to the general counsel of FTX US. According to prosecutors, the message said: “I would really love to reconnect and see if there’s a way for us to have a constructive relationship, use each other as resources when possible, or at least vet things with each other. I’d love to get on a phone call sometime soon and chat.” Federal prosecutors have told Kaplan that Bankman-Fried’s communications indicate he may be trying to influence a witness with incriminating evidence against him. On Thursday, prosecutors asked Kaplan to more severely limit Bankman-Fried’s use of electronic devices and the internet, including banning him from messaging applications and requiring the installation of a device monitoring program on his cellphone and computer. A day earlier, they wrote in court papers that his “behavior shows that the existing conditions leave too much room for circumvention of restrictions aimed at preventing inappropriate conduct, including contacting witnesses and accessing cryptocurrency assets.” They described him as “a technologically sophisticated person with both the ability and the inclination to seek workarounds of more narrowly drawn bail conditions.” Mark Cohen, Bankman-Fried lawyer, called the proposals by prosecutors “draconian” requests that would make it hard for lawyers and the defendant to prepare for trial. But he soon found himself on the defensive as Kaplan noted his client’s apparent bail violations, including accessing an encrypted internet site to watch the Super Bowl. The judge mocked Bankman-Fried’s use of an encrypted method to watch the game, noting that it was on any television. Cohen responded that there wasn’t a TV in the house. “I think we understand your comments today, your honor, that there is no margin for error,” Cohen said. “That if there are any violations, we will be at a very different proceeding.” Of the eventual bail restrictions, the judge said: “I want this to be tight, not just tight in characterization, but tight in fact.” Bankman-Fried has been confined with electronic monitoring to his parents’ home since his December arrest on charges that he cheated investors and that diverted their deposits, in part to finance political donations and make risky trades at Alameda Research. He has pleaded not guilty.	https://www.wivb.com/news/business/ap-judge-suggests-jail-to-limit-ftx-founders-communications/	2023-02-17 05:03:36	1	https://www.wivb.com/news/business/ap-judge-suggests-jail-to-limit-ftx-founders-communications/
KAHRAMANMARAS, Turkey (AP) — Rescuers have pulled more survivors from the debris of the Feb. 6 earthquake that devastated parts of Turkey and Syria even as the window for finding people alive is closing fast. Here’s a look at the key developments Friday from the aftermath of the earthquake. DEATH TOLL RISES The Turkish disaster management agency has updated the death toll from the powerful earthquake in Turkey to 38,044, raising the overall number of fatalities in both Turkey and Syria to 41,732. The death toll is certain to increase further as search teams retrieve more bodies amid the devastation. The powerful 7.8 earthquake has become Turkey’s deadliest disaster in modern history. MORE SURVIVORS RESCUED More than 10 days after the powerful earthquake struck, rescuers overnight pulled out a child, a woman and two men alive from wreckage. The latest rescues came as crews began clearing up debris in cities devastated by the earthquake. Neslihan Kilic, a 29-year-old mother of two, was removed from the rubble of a building in Kahramanmaras, after being trapped for 258 hours, the private DHA news agency reported late Thursday. In the city of Antakya, police rescue crews found 12-year-old Osman alive after retrieving 17 bodies from a collapsed building. “Just when our hopes were over, we reached our brother Osman at the 260th hour,” police rescue team leader Okan Tosun told DHA. An hour later, crews reached two men inside the debris of a collapsed hospital in Antakya. One of them, Mustafa Avci, used the mobile phone of a rescuer to call his brother and ask about family members. “Have they all survived? he asked. “Let me hear their voices.” UN AID CROSSES INTO SYRIA A total of 143 trucks carrying aid from Turkey into northwest Syria have crossed the border since Feb. 9, a United Nations official said. Jens Laerke, spokesman for the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, said the trucks are carrying a “multitude” of items from six U.N. agencies — including tents, mattresses, blankets, winter clothes, cholera testing kits, essential medicines, and food from the World Food Program. They crossed through the border gates of Bab al-Hawa and Bab al-Salameh, he said. Meanwhile, The U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, FAO, said it was working closely with Turkey to determine the steps needed to rehabilitate infrastructure in the agricultural sector damaged by the quake, including irrigation systems, roads, markets and storage capacity. “In Syria, rapid assessments by FAO of areas affected by the earthquakes suggest major disruption to crop and livestock production capacity, threatening immediate and longer-term food security,” the Rome-based agency said in a statement. SYRIANS’ RETURN At least 1,522 bodies of Syrians have been brought back to Syria from Turkey for burial across the Bab al-Hawa border crossing, an official at the crossing said. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a U.K.-based war monitor, reported that when the numbers from other, smaller crossings are tallied, the total number of bodies brought back to Syria for burial is 1,745. Syrian survivors have also begun crossing back from Turkey. Some 1,795 Syrians crossed from Turkey into Syria on Wednesday, the first day after Turkey issued a decision allowing Syrian refugees impacted by the earthquake to return to their country temporarily without losing their protected status in Turkey, an official at the Bab al-Hawa border crossing said. The decision allows holders of Turkish temporary protection cards residing in earthquake-damaged areas to cross into Syria without having to obtain a travel permit from Turkish authorities. Normally if a Syrian holding protected status in were to cross into Syria without a permit, they would be considered by Turkish authorities to have relinquished their status as asylum-seekers and would be required to surrender their protection cards and banned from re-entry for five years. SPAIN TO TAKE IN 100 SYRIANS MADRID — Spain says it will take in some 100 Syrian refugees in Turkey that have suffered in the earthquake. Migrations Minister José Luis Escrivá said the refugees would be those considered most vulnerable and badly affected by the quake. Making the announcement late Thursday, Escrivá said “the earthquake reminds us of Syria’s drama in a tremendous way and we are going to try to help within our possibilities.” ___ Associated Press writers Jamey Keaten in Geneva, Frances D’Emilio in Rome, Ciaran Giles in Madrid and Abby Sewell in Beirut contributed.	https://www.localsyr.com/news/international/ap-key-developments-in-the-aftermath-of-the-turkey-syria-quake/	2023-02-17 13:37:46	1	https://www.localsyr.com/news/international/ap-key-developments-in-the-aftermath-of-the-turkey-syria-quake/
UN experts warn of impact of abortion bans on US minorities GENEVA (AP) — Independent U.N. human rights experts expressed concerns Tuesday about the adverse impact on the rights of racial and ethnic minorities from the U.S. Supreme Court decision that stripped away constitutional protections for abortion in the United States, and called on the Biden administration and state governments to do more to buttress those rights. The Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, a group of independent experts who work with the U.N. human rights office, said it was concerned about higher rates of maternal mortality and morbidity, among a host of concerns about the rights of Blacks, Latinos, Indigenous peoples, foreign-born migrants and others in the United States. The calls came as part of a regular review of U.N. member states by the committee. The U.S. was among seven countries to be considered this summer. A large delegation of U.S. officials, including Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, traveled to Geneva earlier this month for hearings that fed into the committee’s thinking about the rights of ethnic and racial minorities in the U.S. In its report, the committee ran the gamut of concerns and assessments — including praise for recent legislation and executive orders to improve the rights of minorities, and calls for a “national action plan” to combat systemic racism and racial discrimination and an effort to limit the impact of gun violence on such minorities. It urged consideration of new laws or a review of existing ones to help fight excessive use of force by law enforcement, and called on the U.S. to adopt “all necessary measures” — including at the federal level — to ensure that all people can vote. It expressed concerns about an increase in new legislation with a “disproportionate impact” on minorities. While noting some steps by the White House to address high maternal mortality rates, it said: “the committee is concerned that systemic racism along with intersecting factors such as gender, race, ethnicity and migration status have a profound impact on the ability of women and girls to access the full range of sexual and reproductive health services in (the U.S.) without discrimination.” The concerns came in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision in June to strip away women’s constitutional protections for abortion that had been enshrined for nearly a half-century under Roe v. Wade, which paved the way for abortion bans in some states. The committee, referring to the recent court decision, called on the United States to adopt “all necessary measures” at both state and federal level “to address the profound disparate impact of (the decision) on women of racial and ethnic minorities, Indigenous women and those with low incomes,” and provide safe, legal access to abortion under existing U.S. commitments to human rights. It called on the U.S. to ensure that women seeking an abortion — or the health care providers who assist them — “are not subjected to criminal penalties.” Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — It’s a different season, but the situation is similar. The last time TCU’s men’s basketball team visited the WVU Coliseum, West Virginia was in the midst of a seven-game losing streak. Behind 25 points from Taz Sherman, and 10 points off the bench by Malik Curry, the Mountaineers ended the skid, and ended the regular season with a win. Fast forward to this year, and TCU once again comes to town to face a West Virginia (10-7, 0-5 Big12) team that’s in the middle of a losing streak. That’s where the similarities stop, though. Unlike last season, the Horned Frogs (14-3, 3-2 Big 12) enter Wednesday’s contest ranked 14th in the nation. Not only do they possess one of the Big 12 Conference’s top scorers, but across the board, they’re an improved team from a season ago. “I think it’s the most-talented team Jamie (Dixon)’s had since he’s been at TCU,” Bob Huggins said Monday. “They’re like the Lakers used to be. They’re like the Showtime Lakers. They do a great job running lanes. There’s various clips of them rebounding a ball, outletting it, and scoring a layup at the other end before the ball ever touched the floor.” The most notable example of TCU’s abilities this year lies in junior guard Mike Miles Jr. The Big 12 Preseason Player of the Year is having a season worthy of the award. He’s averaging 19 points per game, and shooting better than 50 percent from the floor. “Terrific in transition,” Huggins said of Miles. “I think he’s a guy, who certainly will play in the [NBA], because that style of play is sought after. And, he’s very, very good at it. He’s as good in the open court as anybody we have in the [Big 12] now, probably.” Huggins knows a future NBA player when he sees one. He recently added a former NBA player to his coaching staff, as DerMarr Johnson has been hired to be an assistant coach. It’s unclear at this time if Johnson will be eligible to coach in the contest, as he continues to transition from his role as director of player development at Cincinnati. West Virginia has suffered five straight losses to begin Big 12 play, three of which have come by six points or less. The Mountaineers are coming off a one-point loss at Oklahoma on Saturday. WVU was able to clean up the turnover issues that have persisted for much of this season, but sub-par free throw shooting was once again a defining characteristic in the outcome. Quick Hits: Huggins on opportunities and return flight home While Huggins admitted the team hasn’t taken advantage of opportunities and crucial situations often enough, players continue to step up to give their input on how the losing streak can come to an end. “Obviously, guys like Keddy have voiced their opinions, as have a lot of other guys,” said Huggins. “I think what’s important is that the guys that voice their opinion are the guys that are giving it everything they have, and really kind of as much as anybody can, carry the load.” TCU, meanwhile, cooled off one of the hottest teams in the country last time out, as Miles and company took down then-No. 11 Kansas State by 14 points. Miles tallied the first double-double of his career with 13 points and 11 assists to help the Horned Frogs snap a two-game losing skid. “Jamie’s done a really, really good job of making it an up-tempo style,” Huggins said of TCU’s offense. Despite Miles’ scoring ability, Dixon’s team ranks ninth in the Big 12 in shooting percentage and tenth in the league in three-point shooting percentage. However, the Horned Frogs are the best rebounding team in the league, and average a conference-best 12.6 offensive rebounds per game. Dixon’s group also hangs onto the basketball better than any other team in the conference, as they average the fewest turnovers per game in the Big 12. WVU’s Tre Mitchell, averaging a team-best 15.4 points per game in conference play, leads all Big 12 players in rebounds per contest since league play began, averaging nine boards a night. West Virginia and TCU enter this week averaging an identical 78.1 points per game on offense. However, the Horned Frogs own the second-best scoring margin (+13.4) in the league, while WVU ranks in the bottom third of the conference with a +8.7 scoring margin. After winning each of the first 11 meetings with TCU, WVU is 6-4 against Texas Christian since the start of the 2017-18 season. The Mountaineers have never lost to TCU in Morgantown. Wednesday’s contest will tip at 7 p.m. ET, and will be streamed on Big 12 Now on ESPN+.	https://www.wowktv.com/goldandbluenation/west-virginia-aims-to-end-skid-versus-no-14-tcu/	2023-01-18 02:49:04	1	https://www.wowktv.com/goldandbluenation/west-virginia-aims-to-end-skid-versus-no-14-tcu/
Phil Mickelson gave his first public comments since accepting a spot on the controversial Saudi-funded LIV Golf Invitational series. Mickelson said on Wednesday that he does not condone alleged human rights violations by the Saudi Arabian government. Mickelson was among a number of former major champions to leave the PGA Tour behind for the LIV Golf Invitational, which is offering mammoth purses. “I don't condone human rights violations,” he said. “I don't know how I can be any more clear. I understand your question, but... again, I love this game of golf. I've seen the good that it's done, and I see the opportunity for LIV Golf to do a lot of good for the game throughout the world, and I'm excited to be a part of this opportunity.” As Mickelson prepared for the first LIV Golf event to begin on Thursday, several other former major champions appear to be joining the league. The Daily Telegraph is reporting that Bryson DeChambeau and Patrick Reed will announce they too are joining the circuit. The outlet reported they will play at LIV Golf’s first American event later this month. The PGA Tour has not permitted players to join the competing league. Anyone participating in this week’s LIV Golf Invitational risks losing PGA Tour membership. Besides Mickelson, the LIV Golf Invitational also includes some other former major champions, including Dustin Johnson Sergio Garcia, Graeme McDowell, Martin Kaymer and Louis Oosthuizen. While golfers joining the LIV Golf Invitational might not be permitted back on the PGA Tour, they can still — for now — participate in major championships.	https://www.wtvr.com/news/national/phil-mickelson-speaks-publicly-as-more-golfers-join-saudi-backed-league	2022-06-08 18:08:09	0	https://www.wtvr.com/news/national/phil-mickelson-speaks-publicly-as-more-golfers-join-saudi-backed-league
The Two New Dormitories were Named After Kwanza Jones, Princeton '93, Artist And CEO of SUPERCHARGED, and José E. Feliciano, Princeton '94, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Clearlake Capital. LOS ANGELES, May 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Ivy League institution Princeton University names two dormitories after Kwanza Jones (Princeton '93), and José E. Feliciano (Princeton '94). These are the first buildings to be named after a Black and Latino donor in Princeton's 275-year history. Princeton celebrated the dedication and ribbon cutting of the new dormitories on May 5th, 2023 in New Jersey. Friends and families from across the country gathered together to join in the dedication of the Kwanza Jones Hall and José E. Feliciano Hall. These dormitories were built after Jones and Feliciano's historic gift of $20 million to Princeton which was donated back in 2019. The donation was made to attract and support high-achieving students from all backgrounds and highlights the promise of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging for the larger community. "We see this gift as the color of commitment. It also demonstrates that people of color belong and we are at the table to help the university to continue to do the work of anti-racism, diversity, and inclusion," said Jones. It is worth noting that Jones and Feliciano's time at Princeton was challenging. Before the $20 million donation, Jones had written an "Open Love Letter" about Woodrow Wilson's legacy to Princeton's President, Christopher Eisgruber, and Vice President for Advancement, Kevin Heaney. It addressed the racism faced by Blacks and people of color within Princeton. In the letter, Jones requested the removal of Woodrow Wilson's name from the Residential College and the School of Public and International Affairs. Jones stated: "One of the reasons José and I committed more than $20 million to Princeton was to demonstrate that underrepresented people of color, whether Black, Brown, or otherwise, that these people, our people… belong. Not that we belong solely as beneficiaries of a Princeton education and experience. But, instead, we belong, as patrons and co-creators of Princeton, and places like Princeton. And, that Princeton, our communities, our nation, and the world is made better because of us." During the dedication of the Kwanza Jones Hall and José E. Feliciano Hall, Eisgruber said, "Today we celebrate the power of possibilities. We celebrate the generosity and love of two very special members of the Princeton community. And we celebrate what it means to belong." The two dormitories are built in the same spot where Jones and Feliciano had their first date during their time at Princeton. "There is a bridge that connects the Kwanza Jones Hall to the José E. Feliciano Hall," said Jones. "So, when we are talking about buildings and connections, it's not just metaphorical, it's literal." "This is the most iconic representation of the genius of American intellectual traditions contributing toward the expansion of a better world," said Dr. Michael Eric Dyson (Princeton '93). "Kwanza and José have done more than talk the talk. They have erected a building that is a lasting monument to the beautiful creativity of equity." At the event, Eisgruber presented to Jones and Feliciano a replica of the plaque that hangs inside the Kwanza Jones Hall and José E. Feliciano Hall as a gift. "We hope this will remind you always of our deep gratitude for your commitment to Princeton." The dedication of the Kwanza Jones Hall ended with Jones' latest track playing as the audience moved towards the José E. Feliciano Hall. The song titled, "We Buildin' (Reggaeton Mix)" celebrates the power of collective action and positive change, and pays tribute to the essence of building on your future, brick by brick. "Thank you for showing what Princeton love can be, so that we can show up inside Princeton," said Rahsaan Harris (Princeton '95). About Kwanza Jones and José E. Feliciano Kwanza Jones and José E. Feliciano are life and business partners. In 2014, they founded the Kwanza Jones & José E. Feliciano Initiative (Jones+Feliciano), a philanthropic grant-making and investment organization that strategically partners with nonprofits and for-profits to ensure maximum impact. Jones+Feliciano focuses on four pillars - education, entrepreneurship, equity, and empowerment - as providing access to capital in these areas leads to greater and more equitable advances and societal progress. Jones+Feliciano has committed more than $150 million to these efforts. Kwanza Jones (Princeton '93), is an artist, catalyst, speaker, and philanthropic leader. She is a leader as a board member and an advisor to numerous companies and nonprofits, including Apollo Theater, Susan G. Komen, UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center, and Bennett College. José E. Feliciano (Princeton '94), is the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Clearlake Capital. He is also a trustee of Stanford University and the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Latino.

LEOMINSTER, Mass. (AP) — The music was blaring on a February afternoon when Francisco Torres stopped by a Massachusetts barbershop, proclaiming he was half-angel, half-devil. He wanted a dozen people to come outside the shop and shoot him with an automatic weapon stored in his car trunk. Before anyone could make sense of the request, Torres fled the shop and drove off. They never saw a weapon and he didn’t return. “I didn’t get what he was saying but then I realized he was talking about a gun. I told him there are kids in here, why are you saying this,” said Saul Perez, who was visiting friends at the shop and noted that an employee called 911, ushered children into the back and shut down the shop. “I was spooked.” The incident took place about a week before Torres would be arrested for attacking a flight attendant and attempting to open the plane’s emergency door on a cross-country United flight from Los Angeles to Boston earlier this month. Confrontations on flights have skyrocketed since the pandemic started, with some altercations captured and replayed endlessly on social media. In a video taken by a fellow passenger, Torres loudly threatens to kill people and promises a bloodbath before charging the front of the plane, where a group of passengers tackled him down to the ground to restrain him. He remains behind bars pending a mental health evaluation, with a judge ruling he “may presently be suffering from a mental disease or defect rendering him mentally incompetent.” Torres objected to the evaluation through his federal public defender, Joshua Hanye, who didn’t return a call Thursday seeking additional comment. A relative for Torres would not comment on the case. The flight attack was part of a decadeslong pattern of Torres demonstrating signs of a mental illness. He spent time in mental health facilities, according to lawsuits since closed that he filed in 2021 and 2022 against two hospitals in Massachusetts. Torres says he argued in one of the lawsuits that he was misdiagnosed for a mental illness and, in the other, that he was discriminated against for being vegan. In December 2022, police confronted him at his house in Worcester County, where he was outside in his underwear saying he was protesting climate change, according to a police report. On another occasion in 2021, police responded to a call from his mother reporting that he was yelling “homicidal threats” out a window. He told police that he was in World War III and he had a special device giving him “super sonic hearing,” which he used to listen to his neighbors talking about him. His case history demonstrates the challenges facing airlines and federal regulators when handling passengers like Torres. Especially since experts say data shows those with mental illnesses are more often the victims of crimes than those responsible for committing violent acts. Despite repeated run-ins with police, authorities said that he rarely acted violent. He once was accused of grabbing his mother’s arm, but those charges were dismissed. He didn’t legally own a weapon, even though he often talked about guns. And there were no signs of trouble when he boarded that cross-county flight last month, a passenger said, or during the first five hours in the air. “He is really a nonviolent offender,” said Leominster Police Chief Aaron Kennedy, who is familiar with Torres from previous run-ins. “This guy was pretty mild.” And even if past incidents raised red flags, experts said there isn’t a whole lot that airline companies can or should be doing. Airlines say they don’t share banned passenger lists with each other, though there have been a few cases so notorious that the passenger’s name became widely known. The FBI maintains a no-fly list for people suspected of terrorism, to which special agents and other approved government employees can submit names for consideration. People with mental illnesses are not prohibited from getting on a plane, according to Jeffrey Price, an aviation-security expert at Metropolitan State University of Denver. Federal law gives U.S. citizens “a public right of transit through the navigable airspace,” he said. Legislation backed by airlines and their labor unions was introduced in Congress last year to create a new no-fly list including people who were charged or fined for interfering with airline crews. The bills died without hearings in the Senate or House, but backers plan to re-introduce them later this month. Several Republican senators opposed the proposal, saying it could be used to punish critics of the federal rule requiring passengers to wear masks — even to “equate them to terrorists.” From January 2021 to April 2022, while the federal mask mandate was still in effect, the vast majority of unruly-passenger cases reported by airlines involved disputes over masks, according to Federal Aviation Administration figures. Some liberal groups also opposed the legislation, arguing that the current no-fly list of people suspected of terrorism is opaque and unfair. The American Civil Liberties Union has sued the government several times over the last decade on behalf of people who didn’t know why they were on the list or how to be removed from it. The ACLU also has accused the FBI of putting some people on the list to pressure them to become informants in counter-terrorist investigations against Muslim communities in the U.S. The captain of an airline flight can decide not to fly with a particular passenger on board, although flight attendants say this usually happens when a passenger appears to be drunk. The government runs what it calls “trusted traveler” programs such as TSA PreCheck, which lets people who are fingerprinted and pass a background check speed through security without removing shoes, belts, jackets and laptops from their bags. People can be denied PreCheck for certain crimes, which extends to those who are found not guilty by reason of insanity. But of course people who are denied PreCheck can still fly. Adding travelers like Torres to any no-fly list or barring them from a flight raises a host of logistical and constitutional questions. And determining who would get on a list would be controversial in a country that prides itself on protecting individual rights and keeping health information private by following strict HIPAA rules. Plus, having a “mental health challenge” is “not a prediction, necessarily, that someone’s going to have outbursts, have unpredictable behavior,” said Lynn Bufka, a psychologist and the American Psychological Association’s associate chief of practice transformation. “That’s not going to be a good marker for determining whether or not someone should safely board.” Before Torres became agitated and threatened those around him, fellow passenger Jason Loomis said he didn’t exhibit any strange behavior during boarding and was quiet for the beginning of the flight. Hours later though, Loomis witnessed his outburst. Initially, he spoke with Torres to try to calm him down, but when Torres’ anger escalated, Loomis joined other passengers in restraining him. Still, Loomis said he couldn’t envision keeping Torres off the flight in the first place. Instead, he said it was a reminder that society needs to take better care of mentally ill people. “I know there has been a lot of talk about airplane security and safety these days, but this was a very rare occurrence,” Loomis said. “It wasn’t like he was shouting in the airport. He wasn’t threatening anything. He was perfectly fine and then something just snapped.”	https://phl17.com/health/ap-health/flight-attack-raises-questions-about-security-mental-health/	2023-03-17 15:42:52	0	https://phl17.com/health/ap-health/flight-attack-raises-questions-about-security-mental-health/

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan’s prime minister said Saturday that authorities would go after those involved in violent protests following the detention of his predecessor, Imran Khan, including prosecution in anti-terrorism courts. Shahbaz Sharif’s warnings were a sign of further escalation in the long-running showdown between the government and Khan, who has the backing of large numbers of supporters. Khan returned to his home in the eastern city of Lahore early Saturday, after a court agreed to shield him from renewed arrest for two weeks. The 70-year-old former cricket star, who was toppled by parliament a year ago, delivered a speech from his home later Saturday. The recent chain of events began Tuesday when Khan was dragged out of a courtroom and arrested in the capital of Islamabad. His detention was met by violent protests by his supporters, who torched cars and buildings, including military installations. Hundreds were arrested in the aftermath. Khan was released on Friday, but a long list of around 100 court cases, on charges ranging from fomenting violence to corruption, still stands against him. Khan said Friday that authorities only allowed him to travel when he threatened to tell the public he was being held there against his will. Sharif on Saturday vowed to go after those involved in setting on fire the residence of the military’s corps commander in Lahore. “The culprits including the planners, abettors and attackers” face trial in anti-terrorism courts, he told officials in Lahore. Sharif ordered the Law Ministry to increase the number of anti-terrorism courts to speed up the trials. Khan has been in a standoff with the government that replaced him and has alleged the charges against him are politically motivated. Sharif maintains there is a “genuine corruption case” against Khan, “but the judiciary has become a stone wall protecting him.” On the day of Khan’s arrest, protests were held at several places across the country that also witnessed violence. In Rawalpindi’s garrison city, baton-wielding protesters broke into the main gate of the military’s general headquarters. Also, in the northwestern city of Peshawar, protesters set on fire the building of national broadcaster Radio Pakistan, which also housed the offices of state-run news wire Associated Press of Pakistan. Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah on Saturday alleged that armed assailants were involved in the attacks on military installations and government buildings, rejecting a portrayal of the events as spontaneous protests. Khan has a broad base of support around Pakistan. He presents himself as an outsider victimized by the military and the political dynasties that have long run the country. Opponents, meanwhile, call him a corrupt demagogue stirring his followers into violence. In his speech Saturday, Khan denied that his party was responsible for the violent incidents that happened after his arrest. He demanded the chief justice of Pakistan’s Supreme Court investigate, alleging that “unknown persons” joined the protesters and carried out vandalism. He provided no proof to support the claim. “I never allowed my party workers to indulge in mafia-like tactic and always encouraged them to adopt the constitutional course while demanding a new election,” he said. Mainstream television channels blacked out Khan’s address despite a court order suspending a recent ban by Pakistan’s media watchdog on his speeches. Saturday’s speech was aired on the YouTube channel of Khan’s party, Tehreek-e-Insaf. Khan asked his supporters to hold gatherings in their neighborhoods on Sunday from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. and announced the resumption of public rallies starting Wednesday in Lahore.	https://www.yourbasin.com/news/international/pakistan-prime-minister-says-those-involved-in-violence-of-khan-detention-will-face-terrorism-trials/	2023-05-14 15:12:19	0	https://www.yourbasin.com/news/international/pakistan-prime-minister-says-those-involved-in-violence-of-khan-detention-will-face-terrorism-trials/
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Enbridge Energy, the owner and operator of the Line 3 pipeline project in northern Minnesota, will pay more than $11 million after investigations identified water quality violations and three aquifer breaches related to the pipeline’s construction, state regulators said Monday. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and Department of Natural Resources announced the results from investigations of water quality violations and aquifer breaches related to the construction project. Combined with the previous DNR actions, and in partnership with Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, the investigations have resulted in more than $11 million in payments, environmental projects, and financial assurances from Enbridge, according to the state agencies. The Minnesota agency investigation found that Enbridge violated regulations when it discharged construction storm water into wetlands and inadvertently releasing drilling mud into surface water at 12 locations in June and August of 2021. The DNR also finalized agreements with Enbridge to address three aquifer breaches related to Line 3 construction. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison also said Monday he has filed a misdemeanor criminal charge against Enbridge in Clearwater County District Court for taking water without a permit at the Clearbrook aquifer. A statement from Enbridge said that the charge will be dismissed following one year of compliance with state water rules. “Enbridge, with the support of union and tribal contractors, implemented strong environmental safeguards and protections to meet these regulatory requirements and protect natural resources. This included construction oversight by agency and tribal monitors with the authority to stop construction at any time,” the statement said. Enbridge said $7.5 million of the $11 million will be used to provide financial assurances and fund multiple environmental and resource enhancement projects. “At the start of this project, the MPCA issued our most stringent water quality certification to date and permits that were strong, enforceable, and protective — and this enforcement action holds Enbridge accountable for the violations that occurred during construction,” said MPCA Commissioner Katrina Kessler. Environmentalist Winona LaDuke, applauded the action taken by the state and attorney general, but added the agencies failed Minnesota’s natural resources and tribal treaty rights by allowing the project to continue. “Remember that the aquifer is still hemorrhaging water and the level of contamination is increasing,” the executive director of Honor the Earth said.	https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation/enbridge-will-pay-11-million-to-settle-pipeline-violations/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all	2022-10-17 21:50:52	1	https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation/enbridge-will-pay-11-million-to-settle-pipeline-violations/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all
(BCN) — The Oakland Zoo may have to change its name to Oakland Mountain Lion Rescue Center. Coming from the same general vicinity as Holly, the cub found abandoned last month in Santa Cruz and brought to the zoo’s veterinary hospital, another cub was brought to the zoo Sunday. Named Hazel, the 4-to-5-month-old cub was found severely emaciated in Soquel, near Santa Cruz. Hazel, who only weighs 12 pounds, was found by a local resident, who called Native Animal Rescue animal shelter. They contacted the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), who determined Hazel’s mother was nowhere to be found. CDFW brought Hazel to Oakland Sunday night. According to Isabella Linares, the marketing manager of zoo manager Conservation Society of California, Hazel is suffering from severe anemia and hypoglycemia. “We gave her much-needed fluids and set her up with a warm and cozy overnight bed,” Linares said, in a statement. “By this morning, vitals had slightly improved, and we are doing everything we can to help her heal.” Linares said mountain lions can have kittens year-round, and according to CDFW, it’s unfortunately common to find cubs needing help during winter months. Holly, who was named for the holidays, was about the same age when brought to the zoo Dec. 19. KRON On is streaming live news now She was considered critically ill when brought in, prompting hospital staff to treat her with fluids, vitamins, anti-nausea medication, and anti-parasitic medication. Zoo officials say she’s made remarkable progress since. Zoo officials have said Holly won’t be released back into the wild and they will find her a permanent home in the coming weeks at an Association of Zoos and Aquariums-accredited zoo or sanctuary. She’s just too young to survive on her own in the wild, which could also be the case with Hazel.

A handful of centenarian survivors of the attack on Pearl Harbor gathered at the scene of the Japanese bombing on Wednesday to commemorate those who perished 81 years ago. That's fewer than in recent years, when a dozen or more traveled to Hawaii from across the country to pay their respects at the annual remembrance ceremony. Part of the decline reflects the dwindling number of survivors as they age. The youngest active-duty military personnel on Dec. 7, 1941, would have been about 17, making them 98 today. Many of those still alive are at least 100. Ira Schab, 102, was on the USS Dobbin as a tuba player in the ship’s band. He recalls seeing Japanese planes flying overhead and wondering what to do.

He fed ammunition to machine gunners on the vessel, which wasn’t hit. He’s now attended the remembrance ceremony four times. U.S. & World “I wouldn’t miss it because I got an awful lot of friends that are still here that are buried here. I come back out of respect for them,” he said. Schab stayed in the Navy during the war. After the war, he studied aerospace engineering and worked on the Apollo program. Today he lives in Portland, Oregon. He wants people to remember those who served that day. “Remember what they’re here for. Remember and honor those that are left. They did a hell of a job. Those who are still here, dead or alive,” he said. About 2,400 servicemen were killed in the bombing, which launched the U.S. into World War II. The USS Arizona alone lost 1,177 sailors and Marines, nearly half the death toll. Robert John Lee recalls being a 20-year-old civilian living at his parent's home on the naval base where his father ran the water pumping station. The home was just about 1 mile (1.6 kilometers) across the harbor from where the USS Arizona was moored on battleship row. The first explosions before 8 a.m. woke him up, making him think a door was slamming in the wind. He got up to yell for someone to shut the door only to look out the window at Japanese planes dropping torpedo bombs from the sky. He saw the hull of the USS Arizona turn a deep orange-red after an aerial bomb hit it. “Within a few seconds, that explosion then came out with huge tongues of flame right straight up over the ship itself — but hundreds of feet up,” Lee said in an interview Monday after a boat tour of the harbor. He still remembers the hissing sound of the fire. Sailors jumped into the water to escape their burning ships and swam to the landing near Lee's house. Many were covered in the thick, heavy oil that coated the harbor. Lee and his mother used Fels-Naptha soap to help wash them. Sailors who were able to boarded small boats that shuttled them back to their vessels. “Very heroic, I thought,” Lee said of them. Lee joined the Hawaii Territorial Guard the next day, and later the U.S. Navy. He worked for Pan American World Airways for 30 years after the war. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs doesn’t have statistics for how many Pearl Harbor survivors are still living. But department data show that of the 16 million who served in World War II, only about 240,000 were alive as of August and some 230 die each day. There were about 87,000 military personnel on Oahu at the time of the attack, according to a rough estimate compiled by military historian J. Michael Wenger. The ceremony sponsored by the Navy and the National Park Service featured a moment of silence at 7:55 a.m., the minute the attack began, and a missing-man-formation flyover. Navy and park service officials are due to deliver remarks.	https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/national-international/hawaii-remembrance-day-ceremony-draws-handful-of-pearl-harbor-survivors/3143100/	2022-12-07 20:26:19	1	https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/national-international/hawaii-remembrance-day-ceremony-draws-handful-of-pearl-harbor-survivors/3143100/
NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Philharmonic is restoring salaries of musicians to pre-pandemic levels as it prepares to return to Lincoln Center’s Geffen Hall for the 2022-23 season. A four-year contract agreed to in December 2020 during a season canceled due to the coronavirus had called for players to earn 75% of minimum scale through Aug. 31, 2023, which comes to $2,214 weekly. The figure was to rise to 80% of scale through the first six months of the following fiscal year and 90% for the following six months. The orchestra said Monday that salaries will be restored to a $2,952 weekly minimum starting Sept. 21. After missing the 2020-21 season due to the pandemic, the orchestra split this season largely between Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall (46 concerts) and Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Rose Theater (28 concerts). The Philharmonic held 89 concerts in all and drew 90% capacity with attendance of 74,787, not including its free Memorial Day performance at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. The Philharmonic returns to Geffen Hall on Oct. 7 after a $550 million renovation that reduced capacity to under 2,200 from 2,738 and cut rows in the orchestra from 43 to 33. The stage was moved forward 25 feet, allowing seven rows of wraparound seating behind the orchestra. About two-thirds of the third tier was eliminated. Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — A federal judge is dropping the criminal case against a Buffalo woman, accused of running over police officers during a protest in the summer of 2020 and illegal possession of a weapon. It was a chaotic scene on June 1, 2020, with officers injured, bullets flying and a car speeding away. “I was very happy that the case was dismissed, I still apologize to the officer, I never meant for anything to happen,” said Deyanna Davis, in regards to the charge of illegal possession of a weapon. Davis is no longer on home incarceration or electronic monitoring, relating to the federal case. Davis was behind the wheel with two other men, Semaj Pigram, 25, and Walter Stewart, 28, when they slammed through a police blockade on Bailey Avenue, during a period of social unrest after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Davis was initially charged in federal court with a single count of illegal possession of a firearm. On Tuesday, federal court Judge Richard Arcara dismissed her case, at the request of federal prosecutors. “Its always been our contention that she was carjacked and that this weapon was the instrument used to take over the vehicle take over control of the vehicle,” said Sam Davis, Deyanna Davis’ attorney. There is no family relationship between the two. “There was never any indication that she actually touched or came in contact with this weapon,” Sam Davis added. Davis says she was on her way to the store and came across the protest, then sped off after seeing tear gas. She says she still deals with injuries from begin shot in the back and the stomach. “I do still have troubles getting around sometimes, it does hurt a lot I never going to be the same,” Davis said. State Police Trooper Ron Ensminger will likely never be the same either. He suffered a broken leg and a shattered pelvis after being run over. State Police say Ensminger retired in January due to his injuries. Davis still faces state charges from the Erie County District Attorney’s Office — two counts of assault — for the injuries to the officers. This case is scheduled for July, according to the DA’s Office. Sam Davis says their defense is building momentum, in getting those charges dropped, with the federal case now being dismissed. “I believe this was purely an accident, she was shot subsequent to that this wasn’t malice, forethought, she didn’t intend to hurt him,” Davis said. If convicted on the assault charges, Davis could get a max of 25 years in prison. Because of the federal case, Davis was on home incarceration with electronic monitoring, but that is no longer happening. Federal charges are still pending against her two co-defendants and according to court documents, plea negotiations are ongoing. Davis’ defense attorney says Deyanna Davis is not a cooperating witness for the prosecution. Jeff Preval is an award-winning anchor and reporter who joined the News 4 team in December 2021.
