South Carolina factory becomes first in elevator industry to achieve milestone in TRUE program.
FLORENCE, S.C., Dec. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Otis Worldwide Corporation (NYSE: OTIS) achieved Gold-level TRUE (Total Resource and Use Efficiency) certification for zero waste efforts at its manufacturing facility in Florence, S.C. The Otis plant is the first in the elevator industry to be TRUE certified. It is also the first building-infrastructure facility to be certified in South Carolina.
As part of its previously announced ESG targets, Otis aims to have all its factories eligible for zero-waste-to-landfill certification by 2025. Administered by Green Business Certification Inc. (GBCI), the rigorous TRUE rating system requires facilities to divert at least 90% of non-hazardous solid waste from landfill, incineration (waste-to-energy), and the environment through the adoption of sustainable waste management and reduction practices.
"Achieving this milestone is a testament to the commitment and passion of our colleagues in Florence toward contributing to our overall Otis ESG targets and building a more sustainable future for all," said Rob Gokey, Executive Director, Otis North America Operations.
The Florence facility keeps nearly 98% of all site-generated waste out of landfills or incinerators. The plant recycled 6.62 million pounds of sheet metal from August 2021 to July 2022, and it reduced the overall amount of sheet metal used by 1.2 million pounds from its 2019 baseline.
Reducing and recycling sheet metal at that scale required a concerted effort and included multiple improvements in systems, processes, and products. Otis also worked with suppliers to develop waste-management improvements for the facility.
"Zero waste is a powerful part of any company's sustainability strategy," said Peter Templeton, President and CEO of U.S. Green Building Council and GBCI. "Through their TRUE certification, Otis enhances their operations in a way that demonstrates leadership in maximizing the lifecycle of every product to promote a fully circular economy."
Additional examples of the Otis factory's sustainable practices include generating approximately 25 percent of energy requirements from on-site solar panels, the use of LED lighting throughout the factory, and multiple projects to reduce packaging waste for finished goods.
More information about Otis' measurable goals and strategic actions across its four ESG focus areas of Health & Safety, Environment & Impact, People & Communities and Governance & Accountability can be found in the latest ESG Report.

NEW YORK (AP) — Henry Silva, a prolific character actor best known for playing villains and tough guys in “The Manchurian Candidate,” “Ocean's Eleven” and other films, has died at age 95.
Silva's son Scott Silva told Variety that his father died Wednesday of natural causes at the Motion Picture and Television Country House and Hospital in Woodland Hills, California.
Silva was a New York City native who dropped out of school as a teenager, in the 1940s. He was accepted the following decade into the Actors Studio, where fellow students included Shelley Winters and Ben Gazzara. He went on to have a long and busy career in film and television, with hundreds of credits before retiring from acting in 2001.
He had a breakthrough role on stage and screen in the 1950s as a drug dealer in "A Hatful of Rain” and supporting parts in two of Frank Sinatra's best known movies, both from the early 1960s: “Ocean's Eleven,” the Las Vegas heist film that was a showcase for Sinatra, Dean Martin and other “Rat Pack” members; and “The Manchurian Candidate,” the Cold War thriller about brainwashing and the assassination of the president that starred Sinatra, Laurence Harvey and Janet Leigh. (In his last film appearance, Silva was cast in the “Ocean's Eleven” remake from 2000 that starred George Clooney and Brad Pitt).
“Our hearts are broken at the loss of our dear friend Henry Silva, one of the nicest, kindest and most talented men I’ve had the pleasure of calling my friend," Dean Martin's daughter, Deana Martin, tweeted. “He was the last surviving star of the original Oceans 11 Movie.”
Silva was also seen on such television series as “Wagon Train” and “The F.B.I.,” and in such films as Warren Beatty's “Dick Tracy,” Jerry Lewis' “Cinderfella” and “Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai,” in which he played a mobster in the 1999 release directed by one of his admirers, Jim Jarmusch. | https://www.ksby.com/news/national-news/henry-silva-known-for-many-tough-guy-roles-dies-at-95 | 2022-09-18 00:22:27 | 1 | https://www.ksby.com/news/national-news/henry-silva-known-for-many-tough-guy-roles-dies-at-95 |

HELSINKI (AP) — Amid the biggest regional security crisis in decades, as Finland waits to join NATO, the defense minister has chosen to claim nearly two months of parental leave from his job.
And Finns aren’t batting an eyelid. Ditto their Nordic neighbors, who are used to family-oriented social policies and work-life balance.
Defense Minister Antti Kaikkonen, a 48-year-old father of two, makes a stirring argument for taking parental leaving starting Jan. 6 to dedicate mainly to his 6-month-old son.
“Children remain small only for a moment, and I want to remember it in ways other than just photos,” Kaikkonen tweeted, assuring that Finland's security "will be in good hands."
He later told Finnish news agency STT that “although ministerial duties are very important to me, you’ve got to be able to put family first at some point.”
The five Nordic countries — Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden — have made gender equality a top priority in their policies, and that includes encouraging dads to spend more time with their children.
In Sweden, both parents together receive 480 days of parental leave per child, with each parent able to use half — 240 — of those days, which are also transferable. In the case of multiple births, an extra 180 days are granted for each additional child.
In September, Finland launched a gender-neutral parental leave system allowing both parents to take 160 days of paid leave each and to transfer a certain amount of days between each other.
Top male politicians in the Nordic states have made use of their paternal leave rights to a certain extent but it’s still not common practice.
In Denmark, Finance Minister Nicolai Wammen began a two-month paternity leave in late 2020, saying that his son “has mostly seen his father on TV.” Others in Denmark to do so include the former ministers of immigration, Mattias Tesfaye, and culture, Joy Mogensen.
In Finland, former Prime Minister Paavo Lipponen, a trailblazer in combining politics and fatherhood, took paternal leave in the distant 1998, albeit for a much shorter period. Lipponen, now 81, received plenty of positive coverage in international media for his family arrangements.
Beyond the Ukraine war and rumblings from neighboring Russia, the Finnish defense minister’s move also comes at a politically sensitive time: Finland faces a general election in early April, and its NATO accession is in limbo mainly due to resistance from alliance member Turkey — which claims Finland and neighboring NATO candidate Sweden must first address its concerns over alleged activities of Kurdish militants in the two countries.
The parliaments of Turkey and Hungary have yet to ratify Finland and Sweden's applications. The 28 other NATO states have already done so.
Finland’s leading newspaper Helsingin Sanomat said in an editorial that the country is likely to join NATO only after the new government has taken office, and took a positive note on Kaikkonen’s leave, saying it contained “a message to society.”
“Observers outside Finland may not only be surprised but also sympathize with the fact that the defense minister can take paternity leave right now. At least it shows that there’s no panic in Finland,” Helsingin Sanomat said.
Emilia Kangas, a researcher on equality, work and family issues at Seinajoki University of Applied Sciences, said Finland has seen a substantial change in attitudes both in the corporate world and in politics over the past decade toward favoring parenthood that is equally divided between father and mother.
Kaikkonen’s paternity leave “tells much about our (Nordic) values and welfare society," Kangas said.
Paternity leave has become common in the Nordic corporate world.
“I do encourage everyone in efforts to take time off when kids are small,” said Antti Hakkarainen, a partner at financial consultancy KPMG Advisory Services in Helsinki. A father of three boys, he took eight months of leave in 2007.
“That time has been one of the highlights of my life so far,” he said.

GUANGZHOU, China, May 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2023 Greater Bay Area Science Forum (GSF) kicked off on May 21 in Nansha, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province. With the theme of "Bring Together Wisdom, Bring Together World", this forum sets 13 sub-forums and has attracted experts in various fields who held discussions online and offline on scientific frontier topics such as marine science, nanoscience, high energy physics, advanced manufacturing, and artificial intelligence, and how to continue to promote the construction of talent highlands in the GBA and form a high-end science and technology talent gathering effect.
Bai Chunli, president of the Alliance of International Science Organizations (ANSO), chairman of the GSF, and academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said in his speech that the GSF is based on the Bay Area and actively cooperates with Hong Kong and Macao to play the role of high-end platforms and communication hubs. He added, the GSF interacts with global scientists, international scientific organizations, and all sectors of society to explore global hot issues to promote the exchanges and sharing of scientific achievements, stimulate the collision of innovative ideas, speed up the connection of rules, mechanisms, and is committed to forming an open innovation ecosystem for the construction of the GBA through participating deeply in global scientific and technological cooperation.
During this forum, the National Science Library of Chinese Academy of Sciences released the "GBA Innovation and Development Patent Index Report (2023)", which is based on patent data and builds a patent index to reveal the characteristics and development trends of scientific and technological innovation in the GBA.
The report shows that from 2017 to 2022, the number of invention patent applications of enterprises in the GBA accounted for 73.44% of the patent application volume of the GBA, and the amount of invention patent granted of enterprises accounted for 78.33% of the number of invention patent granted of the GBA. The application volume of enterprises' PCT accounts for 94.43% of the volume of PCT application of the GBA.
The patent data quoted by the report shows that the GBA possesses technical advantages in multiple industries such as new generation of information technology, new energy vehicles and new materials.
In recent years, with the accelerated construction of the International Science and Technology Innovation Center of the GBA, the innovation driving force of the GBA has continued to increase. Wang Yueqin, director of the Department of Science and Technology of Guangdong Province, said that Guangdong actively cooperates with Hong Kong and Macao, continuously deepens the connection and mechanism connection of GBA's scientific and technological innovation rules, and accelerates the promotion of GBA's science and technology exchanges and cooperation in terms of factors, platforms, projects, and talents.
As the host place of the GSF, Nansha is eager to promoting scientific and technological innovation cooperation, sharing the innovation achievements, and building an open innovation ecology facing the world. Official data shows that in the field of artificial intelligence and life and health, more than 1,000 companies have gathered in Nansha.
In addition, the joint technology innovation of GBA continues to deepen in Nansha. After the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) started in Nansha, the Science and Technology Park of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and the Nangsha Incubation Base of Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks have accelerated.

Corbin Burnes and Josh Hader are headed to next week’s MLB All-Star Game in Los Angeles.
Devin Williams, however, was snubbed.
He could still be added as a replacement or roster addition.
Manager Craig Counsell thinks he should be.
“Devin’s been a top reliever in baseball for years,” Counsell told Wisconsin’s Morning News on 620 WTMJ on Tuesday. “Sometimes the All-Star Game gets stuck down to first half stats. It should be about great players. Devin Williams is a great player in this league. He’s been a great player in this league for three years now, and he’s having an all-star worthy season.”
Six more games for the Brewers before the all-star break, the first of which is Tuesday night against the Twins.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The long, expensive court fight over the will of soul singer Aretha Franklin provides a cautionary tale for people who want to make sure their wishes are carried out after their death — and for their families.
A Michigan jury determined on Tuesday that a handwritten document by Franklin that was found in her couch after her 2018 death was a valid will. It was a critical turn in a dispute that has turned her sons against each other. And it ended in victory for Kecalf and Edward Franklin, whose lawyers had argued that papers dated 2014 should override a 2010 will discovered in a locked cabinet at the Queen of Soul’s home in suburban Detroit.
Legal experts say the fight could have been avoided if Franklin had had a formal will drafted by an experienced attorney who could have ensured that it specified what should become of her money, property and other possessions — and that it would hold up in court. And they say that lesson applies to other families, too. Here’s a look at some of the issues involved:
DO I NEED A WILL?
Not necessarily, but estate lawyers strongly recommend them for most people to ensure that their wishes are carried out, and to avoid causing fights among their loved ones.
“Kids fighting after mom and dad pass is the oldest thing in the world,” said Patrick Simasko, who teaches elder law at Michigan State University’s law school and has been following the Franklin case. “That’s the last thing that mom and dad want. That’s the takeaway. Prepare your estate plan so the kids won’t fight after you pass away.”
Estate attorneys often recommend that their clients establish revocable trusts, which can keep the estate out of probate court. That can make the process much less expensive, but the laws vary from state to state.
CAN I DO IT MYSELF?
You can, but Franklin put her family through five years of expensive litigation that could have been avoided. Franklin was working with an attorney about a formal will from 2016-18, but nothing was finalized at the time of her death.
“There were a lot of open questions and we never resolved those open questions,” lawyer Henry Grix testified during the long-running litigation. ““She was quite ill and perhaps unable, really, to reach final intentions.”
Do-it-yourself software such as the popular Quicken WillMaker can cost as little as $99, but those programs can’t customize a will to a family’s unique circumstances and foresee all the potential pitfalls the way a good attorney could.
“People are sometimes pennywise and pound foolish, including people with decent amounts of money,” said Josh Rubenstein, a New York attorney who heads the private wealth department at the nationwide law firm Katten. “But if you have enough money to leave to somebody, you have enough money to hire a lawyer and not do it yourself.”
And although Michigan accepts handwritten wills like Franklin’s, many states don’t.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMEONE DIES WITHOUT A WILL?
Most states have laws covering how an estate should be divided when a person dies “intestate,” meaning without a will, as the vast majority of Americans do, Rubenstein said. But those laws just provide default formulas for who gets what, and they vary from state to state.
Those formulas may not ensure that money, property and possessions get divided the way you want among your surviving relatives, nor do they guarantee who will be named the executor.
A case is point is how rock superstar Prince died without a will in 2016. Under Minnesota law, his estate had to be divided equally among his six surviving siblings, who have had plenty of disagreements since then. The court had to appoint an executor. Lawyers and the trust firm appointed by the court to manage the estate collected millions of dollars that otherwise could have gone to the heirs.
More than seven years after Prince’s death, the case is only now finally winding down. It took until last year for all parties, including the IRS, to agree that Prince’s estate was worth $156.4 million. All of the assets have been distributed except for around $1.4 million in tax refunds that are still coming, court filings show.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Four of the five Supreme Court justices who overturned the constitutional right to abortion showed up at the conservative Federalist Society’s black-tie dinner marking its 40th anniversary.
Justice Samuel Alito got a long, loud ovation Thursday night from a crowd of 2,000 people, most in tuxedos and gowns, when another speaker praised his opinion in June that overturned Roe v. Wade, long a target of judicial conservatives.
At a moment when opinion surveys show that Americans think the court is becoming more political and give it dismal approval ratings, the justices turned out to celebrate the group that helped then-President Donald Trump and Senate Republicans move the American judiciary, including the Supreme Court, to the right.
The Federalist Society has no partisan affiliation and takes no position in election campaigns, but it is closely aligned with Republican priorities, including the drive to overturn Roe.
Justice Amy Coney Barrett and Alito offered brief remarks that steered well clear of the court’s work, though Alito praised the Federalist Society for its success in the Trump years and hoped it would continue. “Boy, is your work needed today,” he said.
Barrett’s only allusion to the abortion case came when she responded to the crowd’s roar of approval when she was introduced. “It’s really nice to have a lot of noise made not by protesters outside my house,” she said.
Amid heavy security, Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh also were in attendance in the main hall at Washington’s Union Station, where the silhouette of James Madison, the group’s logo, was projected on the walls. Justice Clarence Thomas, the other member of the abortion case majority, was not at the dinner.
Norm Eisen, an ethics expert who served in the Obama administration and later helped draft the articles of impeachment against Trump for his first impeachment in 2019, said the justices showed a brazen disregard for ethical appearances because the organization’s mission is to move the law in a conservative direction.
“While there is no legal obstacle to them showing up at the Federalist Society dinner, the appearances are awful,” Eisen wrote in an email.
But Stephen Gillers, an expert on judicial ethics at New York University’s law school, said neither the ethics nor the optics of the justices’ attendance troubled him.
“It’s not a political organization. It does not appear before the Court. It can legitimately assert a serious commitment to the intellectual development of the law. The fact that it is associated with particular points of view does not change that. I would say the same about the American Constitution Society,” Gillers wrote in an email, referring to a liberal legal group.
Conservative justices have a lengthy history of addressing the annual Washington meeting of the organization. Justice Antonin Scalia, who died in 2016, spoke on several occasions, as have Thomas and Alito.
Gorsuch showed up at the dinner when he was new to the court in 2017, embracing Leonard Leo, the society’s co-chairman who helped Trump vet judicial nominees. Kavanaugh delivered remarks in 2019.
Fifteen other appeals court judges chosen by Trump also are on the schedule for the three-day conference in the nation’s capital.
The conference began Thursday, with a speech by Chief Judge William Pryor of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit mocking the group’s liberal critics and lauding the group he said now has 65,000 members and chapters at 200 law schools.
“After 40 years, I decided it was time to look harder and investigate this mysterious and secretive network that critics charge have captured the federal judiciary, including the Supreme Court of the United States,” Pryor said.
Pryor was the author of the 11th Circuit opinion that sided with Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in ruling that felons must pay all fines, restitution and legal fees before they can regain their right to vote.
The decision reversed a ruling that gave felons the right to vote regardless of outstanding legal obligations. Joining Pryor to form a 6-4 majority were five Trump appointees.
Three of those judges, Lisa Branch, Britt Grant and Kevin Newsom, also are taking part in the conference in Washington.
The Federalist Society got its start at elite law schools when Ronald Reagan was in the White House. It was conceived as a way to counter what its members saw as liberal domination of the nation’s law school faculties.
Its influence was pronounced during the presidency of George W. Bush, when its leaders helped rally support for Senate confirmation of Alito and Chief Justice John Roberts, now seen by some critics as insufficiently conservative. The group was so successful that it spawned copycat liberal organizations.
During Barack Obama’s presidency, the group provided a forum for opponents of Obama’s court choices and policies. Some of its leaders backed then-Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s refusal to act on Obama’s Supreme Court nomination of Merrick Garland after Scalia died in February 2016. That political strategy paid unexpected and huge dividends for conservatives with Trump’s election, leading to Gorsuch’s confirmation. McConnell also was in attendance Thursday, Leo said.
Trump’s White House years brought the group to a new level. “Our movement has grown by leaps and bounds and so has our impact,” Leo said Thursday night.
In 2017, then-White House counsel Don McGahn responded to criticism of the Federalist Society’s influence in the Trump administration.
“Our opponents of judicial nominees frequently claim the president has outsourced his selection of judges. That is completely false. I’ve been a member of the Federalist Society since law school — still am. So, frankly, it seems like it’s been insourced,” McGahn said at the group’s convention.
In a more serious vein, he said, “The fact is we all share the same vision of the judicial role, and we welcome input from many sources.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Former President Bill Clinton is calling on governments, businesses, philanthropies and other prominent institutions to draw together and help a world that is “on fire” as he reconvenes the Clinton Global Initiative, the meeting of international leaders, for the first time since 2016.
“Somebody needs to show up and make something good happen,” he said during the conference’s opening public session Monday. “That’s what we’re trying to do.”
Interest in the two-day meeting has been so intense that the Clinton Foundation had to turn away more than 1,000 potential attendees. It is convening a spectrum of luminaries, including Jordan’s Queen Rania Al Abdullah, Barbados Prime Minister Mia Mottley, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai and actor and water access activist Matt Damon.
Clinton, president of the United States from 1993 to 2001, said he has been amazed by the massive response.
“The world’s on fire in a lot of different ways,” he told The Associated Press in an interview. “But there are a lot of things that businesses, non-governmental groups and governments working together can do to help with a lot of these problems.”
The Clinton Global Initiative, or CGI, has helped more than 435 million people in more than 180 countries since it was established in 2005. It previously required attendees to create a Commitment to Action, a measurable project that addresses a global issue, though for this first year, everyone will be expected to announce or develop a partnership. Those commitments often unite new partners and encourage cooperation between the public and private sectors.
“I think there is a longing for people to get together and meet with an end in mind,” Clinton said in an interview. “Not just talk about it, but knowing that when they walk away, they will have committed to doing something.”
Clinton Foundation Vice Chair Chelsea Clinton calls that “a bias toward action,” which she says is part of what makes CGI special and a catalyst for global change. She said the COVID-19 pandemic has energized interest in public health and addressing health disparities because people outside of the field could see the impact.
“Health is interconnected to anything and everything that anyone may care about,” Chelsea Clinton said. “There are a lot of people who now are mobilized to do something with what they have come to newly understand and which they now feel responsible for helping to solve.”
Dr. David Fajgenbaum received a standing ovation as he announced plans for his new nonprofit Every Cure, which seeks to find new uses for generic drugs to treat rare diseases. The idea came from his own research to find a treatment for his own Castleman’s Disease, a rare ailment where the immune system attacks vital organs.
He said his new nonprofit would work on using generic drugs to treat 106 rare disease initially, a process that would cost 500 times less than developing a new drug. “There would be no greater impact in terms of saving lives,” he said. “As long as I’m alive, we’re going to continue to chase them.”
In other commitments, Andrew Kuper, founder and CEO of impact investing firm LeapFrog Investments, announced the firm planned to support 25 million enterprises offering 100 million jobs in developing countries by 2030. Israeli global venture firm OurCrowd announced a partnership with the WHO Foundation to launch a $200 million Global Health Equity Fund that focuses on breakthrough technology solutions in health care.
Peter Sands, executive director of The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, said CGI has always introduced his group to new potential partners, something even more valuable after two challenging pandemic years that made access to new donors difficult. “There’s only so much you can do with PowerPoints and Zooms,” Sands said.
He is currently in the midst of a fundraising campaign of his own. President Joe Biden will host The Global Fund’s Seventh Replenishment Conference in New York on Wednesday, delayed two days so that Biden can attend the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II on Monday.
However, he now plans to attend CGI and said the gathering has been missed during its hiatus, even though the Clinton Foundation itself has remained active. The initiative convened annually until 2016 during former Sen. Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, when questions were raised about the appearance of potential conflicts of interests if donors then had business before her administration.
Bill Clinton said the initiative is counting on the special energy of its participants to tackle a growing number of issues.
“We’ve got the largest number of migrants since World War II,” he said. “And the most publicity they get in America is when one governor or two turns it into some political issue and tries to make problems for other people. Sensible countries work together and try to figure out the best way to deal with it.”
Clinton also hopes CGI can spotlight various solutions that need more support. He points to a study from Generation180, a nonprofit that promotes the use of clean energy. Its research shows some rural schools have installed solar panels to reduce their carbon emissions and their electric bills. The schools then used the savings to give raises to teachers.
“The energy is here. The jobs are here. The benefits are here. The kids win,” Clinton said. “That shouldn’t be a political issue.”
He says philanthropy can help bust through political and cultural gridlock by showing what can be done. For example, he said that when President Barack Obama proposed hiring 100,000 new STEM teachers and Congress turned him down, philanthropy stepped in to make it happen.
“We got the Carnegie Corporation and the American Federation of Teachers and more than 20 other partners together and they said, ‘We will raise the money,'” Clinton said. “Nobody ever thought of that as being a purpose of philanthropy. But it got the job done, and it demonstrated why Republicans and Democrats should cooperate on such things.”

The mayor of Ukraine's capital since 2014, the former heavyweight champion is a longtime outspoken critic of Vladimir Putin dating back to the conflict with Russia in 2013.
Since Russia invaded Ukraine in late February, Vitali, along with his younger brother and fellow Hall of Famer, Wladimir, has served as one of the faces of the resistance. The Klitschkos took up arms in a territorial defense battalion in Kyiv; star boxers Vasiliy Lomachenko and Oleksandr Usyk followed suit in other parts of Ukraine.
"It is a great honor for me to receive this award," said Klitschko, 50. "I am convinced that this is a recognition of the courage and inviolability of the Ukrainian people, who have been bravely resisting the Russian aggressor for more than 3 months. This is an award for everyone who defends the independence and freedom of Ukraine."
The Klitschkos, sons of a Soviet major general, developed their boxing skills in the Soviet amateur system. Both are considered all-time great heavyweights. Vitali, known for his granite chin and unwavering toughness, enjoyed two heavyweight title reigns.
But Vitali Klitschko is best-known for a fight he lost, an epic 2003 clash with Lennox Lewis for the heavyweight crown. Klitschko, an underdog and late replacement, was ahead on all three scorecards when the fight was stopped due to a gruesome cut over his left eye that required 60 stitches.
Negotiations for a rematch with Lewis stalled when the champion chose retirement. Klitschko won the title Lewis relinquished two fights later, in 2004, with an eight-round TKO of Corrie Sanders.

He first ran for mayor in 2006 after announcing his retirement from boxing one year earlier while still heavyweight champion. After 46 months away from the ring, he returned in December 2008 and regained the title in his comeback fight.
During his second title reign, Klitschko made nine defenses of the heavyweight championship. His final fight came in 2012 at age 41. Klitschko's only losses came when injured in fights he was winning. He retired with a record of 45 wins (41 knockouts) and two losses. His 87% knockout ratio is one of the best in heavyweight championship history.
Perhaps more impressively, he was never knocked down during his career and rarely lost a round. Before his pro boxing debut in 1996 at age 25, Klitschko was a decorated kickboxer who won four world titles. He also impressed as an amateur boxer with 195 wins and 15 losses. Klitschko was elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2018, his first year of eligibility.
Outside of boxing, Klitschko is the longest-serving mayor in Kyiv's history. Weeks ago, he spoke at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, imploring the audience that it would be a mistake to believe the impact of the war in Ukraine won't reach outside its borders.
"Vitali's poise and strength as his city and country faces unfathomable tests have far surpassed the incredible resolve he demonstrated as one of boxing's top heavyweight champions," said Rob King, senior vice president and executive editor-at-large, ESPN Content. "His commitment to the people of Ukraine has been a global inspiration, and his bravery is a prime example of the resilience of the human spirit. It is our privilege to bestow him with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award."
Other Ashe Award honorees include fellow former heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali and boxing broadcaster Howard Cosell. | https://abc11.com/vitali-klitschko-espys-2022-kyiv-mayor-boxing-brothers/11961763/ | 2022-06-15 16:17:00 | 0 | https://abc11.com/vitali-klitschko-espys-2022-kyiv-mayor-boxing-brothers/11961763/ |

TAIPEI, Dec. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Committed to aligning corporate operations with sustainability goals, Delta Electronics has been selected for the DJSI World for the twelfth consecutive year and the DJSI-Emerging Markets for the tenth consecutive year as a result of the evaluation of the 2022 Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI), an indicator of global corporate competitiveness. In this review, Delta achieved the highest overall score in the global electronic equipment industry for seven years and the fifth year in a row, and also scored 100 percentile for the environmental and social dimensions of the industry. The Company received perfect scores in the four indicators of innovation management, environmental reporting, social reporting, and human capital development, while scoring 100 percentile in the eight indicators of supply chain management, information security / cybersecurity and system availability, product stewardship, climate strategy, biodiversity, talent attraction and retention, human rights, and privacy protection in the global electronic equipment industry. The industry-leading scores reflect Delta's commitment to innovation and R&D, enhancement in resource utilization efficiency, and product sustainability, while attaching importance to supply chain management, striving to cultivate talents, safeguarding information security and privacy, and taking into account environmental, social, and economic development.
Jesse Chou, Chief Sustainability Officer of Delta, stated that Delta has long paid close attention to climate change issues and continues to join international sustainability initiatives with a commitment to energy conservation and carbon reduction. We have achieved our science-based targets (SBT) ahead of schedule, and the renewable electricity we use in our operating sites around the world accounts for 55% of our total electricity consumption. Building further on this achievement, we have joined the global RE100 renewable electricity initiative and are committed to achieving 100% renewable electricity and carbon neutrality at all of our operations around the world by 2030. Through all of our collective efforts, our teams in each region have proactively moved toward the RE100 goal by in-house solar power generation and the purchase of renewable electricity directly from power plants, green electricity products, and unbundled energy attribute certificates (EACs). Delta also has a net-zero target aligned with the 1.5°C pathway, and has adopted an internal carbon pricing (ICP) mechanism as a management tool to pay an internal carbon fee of US$300 per metric ton in advance to support our plants' energy resource management, RE100 projects, and purchases of renewable electricity. We are also motivating our divisions to invest in more advanced and innovative low-carbon technologies to explore more business opportunities.
To satisfy our operating sites' needs for renewable electricity, Delta has taken the lead in the industry in Taiwan to sign long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with wind, solar, and hydro power companies, all of which began to transmit and distribute power officially in October. As a result, the purchase rate of renewable electricity has reached as high as 80% of Delta' operating sites in Taiwan. Among these, Delta has signed a green power wheeling agreement with Bo Yao Power Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Taya Group, that recently began to transmit and distribute renewable power to Delta with 25MW solar power facilities. It is estimated that 36 million kWh of power will be generated, enabling Delta to achieve our RE100 goal by 2030.
Delta is committed to providing innovative, clean, and energy-saving solutions and has established R&D centers around the world. In 2021, the Company invested 8.6% of its total revenue in innovation and R&D. The total number of patents granted globally has also accumulated to nearly 12,000. Delta was listed in the Top 100 Global Innovators published by Clarivate for the first time in 2022. Its momentum in innovation not only facilitates the development of low-carbon business opportunities but also contributes to energy conservation and carbon reduction. Between 2010 and 2021, Delta's plants around the world implemented a total of 2,517 energy-saving projects, saving a total of 314 million kWh of electricity, which is equivalent to reducing carbon emissions by 245,000 tons. The products shipped have helped its clients save 35.9 billion kWh of electricity, which is equivalent to reducing roughly 19.01 million tons of carbon emissions. The energy-saving data of 11 products, including server power supplies, solar power converters, and DC chargers for electric vehicles, which Delta has shipped since 2015, have passed the ISAE 3000 Assurance Standard successively, attesting to Delta's achievements in helping its clients reduce carbon emissions.
Delta's board of directors recently adopted relevant policies to formally incorporate biodiversity into the company's ESG strategy to respond to the UN SDGs with practical actions and its core competency. The first phase of a coral restoration project launched in 2021, in which coral reefs were transplanted into the Bay Resource Conservation Area, was completed, and it is estimated to restore 1,000 corals ahead of schedule by the end of this year. To arouse public awareness of marine protection issues, Delta commissioned a Japanese professional team to travel to shoot 8K environmental documentaries, "Life in the Coral Reefs" and "Swimming with Humpback Whales", in the Pacific Islands; both films won the Gold Remi Awards at the 55th WorldFest - Houston International Film Festival in 2022. Delta goes all out to cultivate talents and participate in social initiatives. Its total global investment in social participation during 2021 amounted to nearly US$12 million, of which the costs of talent cultivation accounted for more than 70%. Moreover, it has engaged in a variety of industry-academia collaboration programs with about 130 schools around the world, with an annual investment of more than US$3.6 million. The DeltaMOOCx online learning platform launched by the Delta Electronics Foundation (DEF) in 2014 has accumulated more than 17 million views, from which countless students have benefited enormously.
Delta has worked to closely link sustainable development with business performance. It has included the RE100 achievement rate in the Chairman and regional top-level managers' performance indicators since 2021. The Chairman's performance indicators also include DJSI, CDP, and MSCI ESG, and the results are regularly reviewed. While Delta is working to achieve RE100 globally, it is committed to leading its supply chains to meet international standards, motivating them to conserve energy, and guiding them to conduct carbon inventories. In 2021, eight leading technology companies in Taiwan, including Delta, jointly launched the Taiwan Climate Partnership, and Delta's Chairman Yancey Hai was elected as its first chair at this year's representative assembly. By working with like-minded partners in the industry on this platform, Delta aims to engage with international initiatives and organizations on a broader scale and facilitate the low-carbon transformation of supply chains to enhance their competitiveness.

HENNIKER, N.H. (AP) — Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie delivered his opening arguments against Donald Trump on Thursday, sounding like the prosecutor he once was and the presidential candidate he might become again.
“Tonight is the beginning of the case against Donald Trump,” Christie said in New Hampshire, where he devoted his entire opening remarks at a town hall meeting to pounding on the former president he once supported.
“You’re not going to beat someone by closing your eyes, clicking your heels together three times and saying, ‘There’s no place like home.’ That’s not going to work,” he said. “In American politics you want to beat somebody? You have to go get them.”
Christie called out several Republican candidates and potential candidates — including former Vice President Mike Pence and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley — for barely uttering Trump’s name and argued that Trump’s policy and character failures would only grow if he returns to office.
“Donald Trump is a TV star, nothing more, nothing less,” he said. “Let me suggest to you that in putting him back in the White House, the reruns will be worse than the original show.”
As he nears a decision on his own campaign, Christie is spending two days in the state where he finished a dismal sixth place in the 2016 GOP primary. He endorsed Trump soon after dropping out of that year’s race and later worked on his presidential transition team. In 2020, he worked with Trump on his debate prep against Joe Biden but broke with Trump after he refused to accept his loss of the election and spurred the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.
Since then, Christie has emerged as one of the few prominent GOP Trump critics, largely via his position as an ABC political analyst.
He said Thursday he won’t stand by and let Trump win.
“If I decide to run, I’ll be able to try to do something directly about it. And if I don’t, then I’ll be still on ABC-TV every Sunday,” he said. | https://www.wjhl.com/news/politics/christie-trump-reruns-would-be-worse-than-original-show/ | 2023-04-21 14:06:50 | 0 | https://www.wjhl.com/news/politics/christie-trump-reruns-would-be-worse-than-original-show/ |
Most people might not know that North and South Lake Tahoe have different feels — Tahoe North has smaller towns and is quieter, but still has plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy year-round. The towns of Incline Village, Kings Beach, and Truckee all have great beaches and nearby restaurants, and in the winter, you have your pick between the big mountains at Palisades Tahoe (host of the 1960 Olympics and formerly known as Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows) and Northstar, as well as smaller resorts like Sugar Bowl and Homewood.
Ahead, find 7 VRBO rentals in North Lake Tahoe for your next family or friend group adventures.

This five-bedroom, six-bathroom cabin has views of the lake from the deck and is just a few steps away from the beach and a short drive to Northstar and Palisades. Inside the open concept living area has a fireplace and is surrounded by windows, there's a small office off the kitchen, and downstairs has a small bar, exercise bike, and air hockey table. The cabin not only has a large chef’s kitchen inside, but it also has an outdoor kitchen with a built-in gas grill and bar so there are plenty of opportunities for entertaining all year round.

DAVIS, Calif., Aug. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Arcadia Biosciences, Inc.® (Nasdaq: RKDA), a producer and marketer of innovative, plant-based health and wellness products, today announced the closing of its previously announced registered direct offering of 4,722,506 shares of its common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) at a purchase price of $1.05876 per share, priced at-the-market under Nasdaq rules. Additionally, in a concurrent private placement, Arcadia issued to the investors unregistered preferred investment options to purchase up to 4,722,506 shares of common stock. Each preferred investment option has an exercise price of $0.93376 per share, is exercisable immediately upon issuance and will expire five years from the issuance date.
The net proceeds of the offering are estimated to be approximately $4.57 million after deducting placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses. Arcadia intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to support Project Greenfield, its three-year plan to unlock the company's potential and create a path to profitability. Project Greenfield aligns company resources around several key goals, including expanding retail for the company's GoodWheatTM high-fiber pasta, driving growth in its other core brands and partnerships and maintaining an agile organization to cultivate next-generation wellness products.
H.C. Wainwright & Co. acted as the exclusive placement agent for the offering.
The shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants, excluding the preferred investment options and the shares of common stock underlying the preferred investment options, were offered by Arcadia pursuant to a "shelf" registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-264425) previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 21, 2022, and declared effective by the SEC on May 12, 2022.

HYLA™ blood sensor intends to reduce the need for actual blood samples to be taken from patients
RA'ANANA, Israel, July 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspira™ Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (NASDAQ: IINN) (NASDAQ: IINNW) (the "Company" or "Inspira Technologies"), a groundbreaking respiratory support technology company, revealed the development of the HYLA™ blood sensor. Without the need to take actual blood samples from patients, Inspira's non-invasive optical blood sensor is being designed to perform real-time and continuous blood monitoring to alert physicians of immediate signs of changes in a patient's clinical condition. The HYLA blood sensor is targeting the potential $2.5 billion Point of Care testing, ABG (Arterial Blood Gas) analyzer market.
Optical sensor based on machine-learning algorithms
The non-invasive HYLA blood sensor is being developed by a team of cyber-warfare specialists who formerly served in the Israeli Defense Forces' elite cyber-attack special forces. The HYLA blood sensor is being designed as a new platform based on key technologies being developed for Inspira's ART™ system, designed to reduce the need for invasive mechanical ventilation. Like the ART system, the HYLA blood sensor is designed to minimize the need for invasive medical procedures with the intention of reducing risks, complications and costs.
Expanding Market Growth Opportunities
The HYLA™ non-invasive blood sensor is attached to the outer walls of a tube that has blood flowing through it. The HYLA blood sensor may have broad application potential, benefiting patients undergoing procedures including intensive care unit (ICU) monitoring (approximately 40% of patients have a standard arterial line), Invasive Mechanical Ventilation, Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO), Dialysis and Cardiopulmonary bypass. Targeted patient populations can potentially include those suffering from acute respiratory failure, cardiac failure, pneumonia, acute kidney injury (AKI), as well as patients undergoing open-heart surgery.
Real-time patient monitoring can potentially save lives
Currently, in order to identify changes in a patient's medical condition, frequent invasive blood tests are needed. As a non-invasive real-time blood sensor, the HYLA is expected to reduce the need for frequent invasive blood tests.
The HYLA blood sensor is expected to continuously measure several key indicators such as the levels of partial oxygen and carbon dioxide pressures, known to be precise indicators of health disorders and patient deterioration.
Dagi Ben-Noon, Inspira™ Technologies' Chief Executive Officer, stated:
"Inspira Technologies has set out to change the way we monitor patient health. Today, hospital patients are reliant on physicians manually monitoring their health condition with invasive blood tests, as much as several times a day. We believe that the HYLA blood sensor has the potential to change patient experience and outcomes, through the non-invasive blood sensor, that is intended to perform real-time and continuous blood monitoring, with the intention of alerting physicians of changes in a patient's clinical condition that could potentially save lives."
This technology has not been tested or used in humans and is subject to regulatory approval.
Inspira Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd.
Inspira Technologies is an innovative medical technology company in the respiratory treatment arena. The Company has developed a breakthrough Augmented Respiration Technology (ART), designed to rebalance patient oxygen saturation levels. The Company's ART™ technology potentially allows patients to remain awake during treatment while minimizing the need for highly invasive, risky, and costly mechanical ventilation systems that require intubation and medically induced coma. The Company's product has not yet been tested or used in humans and has not been approved by any regulatory entity.

The complaint, filed in U.S. District Court in Boston, argues the Debt Limit Statute violates the principle of separation of powers, asks the Court to prevent the President and Secretary of the Treasury from canceling or suspending operations of the federal government.
BOSTON, May 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- This morning, attorneys representing the National Association of Government Employees (NAGE), which represents nearly 75,000 employees working in agencies across the federal government, filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court in Boston challenging the constitutionality of the Debt Limit Statute as it exists and seeking an injunction that would prevent the Executive Branch from suspending operations of the federal government due to the debt limit being reached. The attorneys representing NAGE in this case are Thomas H. Geoghegan, of Despres, Schwartz & Geoghegan, Ltd. in Chicago; Patrick V. Dahlstrom, of Pomerantz LLP, in Chicago; Sarah E. Suszczyk, NAGE General Counsel, in Quincy; and Shannon Liss-Riordan, of Lichten & Liss-Riordan, P.C., in Boston.
"This litigation is both an effort to protect our members from illegal furloughs and to correct an unconstitutional statute that frequently creates uncertainty and anxiety for millions of Americans," said NAGE National President David J. Holway. "The Debt Ceiling has become a political football for certain members of Congress. If Congress will not raise the Debt Limit as it has nearly 80 times before without condition, it leaves no constitutional choice for the President."
NAGE is seeking an order declaring the Debt Limit Statute unconstitutional and unenforceable because it confers upon the President the sole and unchecked discretion to cancel or curtail government spending already approved by Congress, an authority which is not available to the President under the Constitution.
As described in the complaint, pursuant to the Fourteenth Amendment, the President must ensure the federal government does not default on its debt. Should the debt limit be reached, the President still must find the funds to meet its obligations to holders of the public debt, either through borrowing or by cutting spending enough to meet debt payments. However, cutting programs that have been authorized and funded by Congress is not an authority available to the President.
The complaint alleges that the Debt Limit Statute is unconstitutional because it puts the President in a quandary, as it would require him to exercise discretion in deciding which programs Congress has authorized should continue being funded and which programs should not. The Constitution requires that funding appropriations be determined by Congress, not the President.
The lawsuit seeks suspension of the operation of the Debt Limit Statute until Congress determines the priorities and order of payments that the President should take, in order to meet the limit set on total indebtedness. The complaint does not specifically deny that Congress may set a limit on indebtedness. However, the lawsuit contends that the President may not take the major actions necessary to comply with the Debt Limit Statute without a clear road map or direction that the President must follow. Until Congress revises the Debt Limit Statute to give such guidance, there is no constitutional means by which the President can comply with it.
This is not the first time the courts have been called upon to address the constitutionality of a statute that would provide the President unfettered discretion to curtail Congressional appropriations. The Supreme Court addressed this issue in Clinton v. New York, 524 U.S. 417 (1995), where it struck down a Presidential line item veto over spending. In that case, Justice Kennedy wrote: "Failure of political will does not justify unconstitutional remedies."
"Congress's failure of will to act is not justification to violate the Constitution," continued President Holway. "But it is the reason this case had to be filed to protect the American public, federal employees, and our Constitution."

Next Gen Personal Finance offers the only bilingual personal finance dictionary with definitions and glossary for both Spanish and English
PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Gen Personal Finance (NGPF) launched a new Spanish & English Language Learner (ELL) Directory this fall to make it easier for Spanish-speaking and ELL students to access valuable personal finance education.
"Our mission is to guarantee that by 2030, all students will take a one semester personal finance course before graduating from high school," said Tim Ranzetta, NGPF co-founder. "To make that a reality, we must continue to make financial education as accessible and inclusive as possible."
NGPF, which provides free personal finance course curriculum for middle and high school students as well as free professional development for teachers, hired a full-time in-house translator in early 2022. This move has resulted in Spanish translations for all of the NGPF's high school semester course activities as well as the entire middle school personal finance course.
"As our Spanish offerings proliferated and more teachers began to use the resources, it became clear that NGPF needed a one-stop shop to make it easier for educators to find all NGPF Spanish language resources in one place," said Ranzetta. "The Spanish and ELL Directory does just that."
The new directory collates all of NGPF's Spanish translations and ELL resources into one webpage. A teacher favorite is the personal finance dictionary, released in July, with personal finance terms, definitions, and a glossary in both Spanish and English. Not only is it the most detailed bilingual personal finance dictionary of its kind, its open source format also allows for constant updates with the fast-changing world of personal finance.
Other resources include a six-part ELL Video Series to introduce context around the U.S. financial system as well as Spanish translations of the top five Financial Capability Friday videos. These current events videos are published on NGPF's YouTube channel so that students can adjust the speed as well as add subtitles in many languages.
Additionally, in partnership with McKinney, NGPF offers an interactive online arcade game called Payback that provides an interactive way for English and Spanish speakers alike to experience virtually what paying for college is like for many students.
More translated materials from NGPF are currently in progress.
"NGPF's unique approach to offering curriculum using Google Docs means that resources are always being updated," said Ranzetta. "When the English version gets updated, the Spanish does too."
To view NGPF's materials, visit www.ngpf.org, where you can create a teacher account. The Spanish & ELL Directory is located on the website at www.ngpf.org/spanish.
Next Gen Personal Finance is a nonprofit organization with a mission to guarantee that by 2030 ALL students will take a one semester personal finance course before graduating high school. To support that mission, NGPF provides middle and high school educators with everything they need to teach financial skills with confidence, at no cost. This consists of ready-to-use financial literacy curricula—including personal finance, math, and economics collections with Spanish translations—as well as free professional development.

2 young brothers, ages 3 and 4, drown in backyard pool at Arizona home
GLENDALE, Ariz. (KTVK/KPHO/Gray News) – Two young brothers are dead after they drowned in a backyard pool Friday evening at a home in Arizona.
According to Glendale police, the boys were just 3 and 4 years old.
Fire officials said one of the boys got into the pool to try to save his brother, who went underwater. Both boys ended up drowning.
When first responders arrived, the parents were performing CPR on the boys. The brothers were rushed to the hospital.
On Saturday, the day after the drownings, crews announced that one of the boys had died and the other was listed in critical condition. Two days later, on Monday, police confirmed that the second child had also died.
It’s unclear how long the boys were underwater in the pool. Firefighters said the pool didn’t have a fence around it. An investigation is still underway.

Joran van der Sloot: Fmr FBI profiler 'surprised it took so long' for Holloway suspect to face US prosecution
Peruvian officials announced the temporary extradition on Wednesday
Birmingham, Ala. – A former Federal Bureau of Investigation criminal profiler says that she's surprised it took so long for Joran van der Sloot, the primary suspect in Alabama student Natalee Holloway's disappearance in 2005, to be extradited to the United States from Peru to be prosecuted.
Officials in Peru said late Wednesday that van der Sloot would be temporarily extradited to the United States to face extortion and wire fraud charges. He is in Peruvian prison after being sentenced to 28 years for the killing of 21-year-old Stephany Flores.
The 36-year-old Dutch national was indicted in 2010 on extortion and wire fraud after van der Sloot allegedly tried to sell information on where Natalee Holloway's body was located.
He asked for a total of $250,000 with $25,000 upfront for the information, with the rest of the money to be paid out when Natalee Holloway's remains were positively identified in Aruba, where she went missing.
NATALEE HOLLOWAY, SUSPECT JORAN VAN DER SLOOT: TIMELINE OF ALABAMA TEEN'S DEATH
Prosecutors allege that he led John Q. Kelly, the family's lawyer, to a site where Holloway's remains were claimed to be located. Van der Sloot lied about the location of the remains, prosecutors said in the July 2018 indictment.
Former FBI profiler Mary Ellen O'Toole told Fox News that she was surprised to hear van der Sloot is finally being extradited to the United States over almost 18 years after Natalee Holloway went missing.
"I was really surprised because it's been such a long time, and I did not know that they were going to pursue these charges. I think it's good but yeah, I was surprised to hear, surprised it took so long too," O'Toole said.
O'Toole said that she was on-site in Aruba when authorities interviewed van der Sloot and brothers Satish and Deepak Kalpoe were interviewed, but said she couldn't participate in the process.
NATALEE HOLLOWAY SUSPECT JORAN VAN DER SLOOT TO BE EXTRADITED TO US, BETH HOLLOWAY SAYS
"I really wanted to get a sense of what that was like to see what the dynamics were within that location," she said.
She said that van der Sloot was a "very glib and charming young man" based on observations from the interview, but didn't "mean that necessarily as a compliment."
"It seemed he was very comfortable around law enforcement. Unlike a lot of people might be in a case like this. Outwardly, he did not seem particularly rattled," O'Toole said.
The former FBI profiler said that Aruban authorities showed her around the island to see "different parts of the water and what currents would bring a human body back to the water" as well as which currents wouldn't.
EXCLUSIVE: JORAN VAN DER SLOOT DISMISSES NEW WITNESS: ‘HE IS PLAYING WITH [FAMILY’S] PAIN
"It's all very technical, and you had to really know what the water currents were like if you were going to dispose of a body in the water," she said. "If you weren't that meant land disposal. And the people within Aruba following the case, really rallied to attempt to look for her. I think the predominant thought at the time was that the offender could have taken her out in a boat and then dispose the body in out in deeper waters and that might have made a difference in terms of us not being able to find her, but the water is a disposal site seem to make the most sense to people that really understand the Caribbean and the water and currents."
Van der Sloot pleaded guilty to murdering Flores in January 2012 and Natalee Holloway was legally declared dead in the same month.
Natalie Holloway's mother, Beth, said in a statement on Wednesday that justice is finally being served.
"I was blessed to have had Natalee in my life for 18 years, and as of this month, I have been without her for exactly 18 years. She would be 36 years old now. It has been a very long and painful journey, but the persistence of many is going to pay off. Together, we are finally getting justice for Natalee," Beth Holloway said.

Beth Holloway also said she's grateful for everyone involved in the extradition effort.
"While I will have much more to say later about what is happening, for now I want to express my sincere gratitude to President Dina Boluarte, the President of Peru, the warm people of Peru, the family of Stephany Flores, the FBI in Miami, Florida and in Birmingham, Alabama, the U.S. Attorney’s office in Birmingham, the U.S. Embassy in Peru and the Peruvian Embassy in the U.S., my longtime attorney John Q.

BUSHNELL, Fla. (WFLA) – New Bucs safety Keanu Neal grew up about an hour from Tampa in Webster, and went to high school in Bushnell at South Sumter. He also played college football at the University of Florida.
So coming back to the area was an exciting opportunity for not only Neal, but for his hometown community too.
“It’s home for me,” Neal said. “Everybody from my hometown was super excited. It’s really cool to be so close– close to where I grew up.”
“I couldn’t think of a better place for him to be,” said Ty Lawrence, who was Neal’s defensive coordinator when he was at South Sumter and is now the Raiders’ head football coach. “We get to see him a lot more often now not just on TV but we can actually go and watch him play.”
Coach Lawrence has known Neal since he was little, and spoke glowingly of his former player, who he’s still close with. Neal even invited him as his guest to the 2017 Pro Bowl when he made the all-star roster as a member of the Atlanta Falcons.
“He does everything the right way,” Lawrence said. “He’s a coach’s dream. He does everything the coaches ask him and above and beyond.”
Keanu who is known as Keke back home is still very much a part of his hometown communities in Webster and Bushnell.
“Keke’s never forgotten where he’s come from,” Lawrence said. “He always comes back.”
And he was even back as recently as last month.
“We were practicing seven on seven out on the field and here he comes driving up,” Lawrence said. “For our kids to be able to take his coaching—because he plays at the highest level—is very special for our kids here.”
Keanu and his other brother, Clint Hart, who also played in the NFL, have both donated their time and money to South Sumter over the years. Part of that generosity can be seen in their new weight room the school was able to build. | https://www.wfla.com/sports/buccaneers/former-high-school-coach-excited-for-keanu-neals-return-to-tampa-bay-area-with-bucs/ | 2022-04-14 00:57:15 | 1 | https://www.wfla.com/sports/buccaneers/former-high-school-coach-excited-for-keanu-neals-return-to-tampa-bay-area-with-bucs/ |

Just weeks into his NBA career, Kings rookie Keegan Murray already has a bit of hardware to show for it.
On Monday, Murray was named the Most Valuable Player of the 2K23 NBA Summer League.
Murray starred in all four games he played in Las Vegas, averaging 23.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.3 steals per contest while shooting 50 percent from the field and 40 percent from 3-point range. He scored at least 20 points in all four games and went off for 29 in the Kings' clash against No. 2 overall pick Chet Holmgren and the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Among players who suited up in at least three games in Vegas, Murray ranked second in points behind Cam Thomas of the Brooklyn Nets (27.4). He easily outscored the three players drafted in front of him in Paolo Banchero (20.0 PPG), Chet Holmgren (12.0) and Jabari Smith Jr. (14.4).
Murray is the second straight Kings player to win the honor, joining teammate Davion Mitchell, who was named co-MVP along with Thomas last summer.
Murray was also named to the All-Summer League First Team along with Thomas, Tari Eason, Quentin Grimes and Sandro Mamukelashvili.
The standout rookie will have the rest of the summer off as the Kings prepare for training camp this fall. | https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/sports/sacramento-kings-keegan-murray-named-summer-league-mvp-after-vegas-dominance/3779335/ | 2022-07-18 19:46:53 | 1 | https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/sports/sacramento-kings-keegan-murray-named-summer-league-mvp-after-vegas-dominance/3779335/ |

Silicon Valley escalates the battle over returning to the office
By Catherine Thorbecke, CNN
(CNN) — Three years after Silicon Valley companies led the charge for embracing remote work in the early days of the pandemic, the tech industry is now escalating the fight to bring employees back into the office -— and igniting tensions with staff in the process.
Google, which has long been a bellwether for workplace policies in the tech industry and beyond, frustrated some employees this week by announcing plans to begin more strictly enforcing its policy that requires workers in-office at least three days a week. The updated policy includes tracking office badge attendance and possibly factoring it into performance reviews, according to CNBC, citing internal memos.
“Overnight, workers’ professionalism has been disregarded in favor of ambiguous attendance tracking practices tied to our performance evaluations,” Chris Schmidt, a software engineer at Google and member of the grassroots Alphabet Workers Union, told CNN in a statement. “The practical application of this new policy will be needless confusion amongst workers and a disregard for our various life circumstances.”
In a statement, Ryan Lamont, a Google spokesperson, told CNN that its policy of working in the office three days a week is “going well, and we want to see Googlers connecting and collaborating in-person, so we’re limiting remote work to exception only.”
Lamont said that company leaders can see reports showing how their teams are adopting the hybrid work model, including “aggregated data” on badge swipes. He added that now that the company is more than a year into its hybrid model, “we’re formally integrating this approach into all of our workplace policies.”
Google isn’t alone in facing pushback from employees. Other tech companies are also grappling with how best to compel workers to come into the office after they’ve grown accustomed to greater flexibility. The tug-of-war is compounded by the fact that tech companies have laid off tens of thousands of employees over the past year, leveling a major blow to employee morale.
At Amazon, tensions boiled over last week as hundreds of office workers staged a walkout to call attention to their grievances, including the three-day return-to-office mandate that was implemented in May.
A current Amazon worker who spoke at the walkout said that she started an internal Slack channel called “remote advocacy” because she wanted a space where workers could discuss how the new return-to-office policy would impact their lives.
“Before I realized what was happening, that channel had 33,000 people in it,” the worker, who identified only as Pamela, said to the crowd at the event. Pamela called the Slack channel advocating for remote work “the largest concrete expression of employee dissatisfaction in our entire company history.”
But the employee criticism isn’t stopping tech companies, who have spent billions on sprawling campuses over the years and often preach the value of serendipitous workplace interactions, from moving forward with their return to office policies.
In response to the walkout, Amazon previously told CNN it may “take time” for some workers to adjust to being in the office more days. But the company also said it’s “happy with how the first month of having more people back in the office has been” and touted the extra “energy, collaboration, and connections happening” in the office.
Facebook-parent Meta similarly doubled down last week on its push to get workers in the office, warning that employees currently assigned to an office must return to in-person work three days a week starting this September. (A Meta spokesperson told CNN the updated policy was not set in stone, and employees designated as remote workers will be allowed to keep their remote status).
At least one tech company is taking a gentler approach.
Salesforce is trying to lure staff into offices by offering to donate $10 to a local charity for each day an employee comes in from June 12 to June 23, according to an internal Slack message reported on by Fortune.
A Salesforce spokesperson told CNN: “Giving back is deeply embedded in everything we do, and we’re proud to introduce Connect for Good to encourage employees to help us raise $1 Million+ for local nonprofits.”
But it might take more than temporary charitable contributions to convince some workers it’s worthwhile to return. Schmidt, the software engineer at Google, said that even if you go into the office, there’s no guarantee you’ll have people on your team to work with or even a desk to sit at.
“Many teams are distributed, and for some of us there may not be anyone to collaborate with in our physical office locations,” Schmidt said. “Currently, New York City workers do not even have enough desks and conference rooms for workers to use comfortably.”
“A one size fits all policy does not address these circumstances,” he added. “We deserve a voice in shaping the policies that impact our lives to establish clear, transparent and fair working conditions for all of us.”

Published: May. 30, 2023 at 3:21 PM CDT|Updated: 38 minutes ago
OWATONNA, Minn. (KTTC) – The Owatonna Police Department (OPD) is investigating a shooting incident that happened on Monday, May 22, 2023.
According to OPD, it was called at 11:50 p.m. to the 200 block of Linden Ave in Owatonna after a caller reported hearing several gunshots in the area.
Police arrived and located multiple fired casings. One single family residence was damaged by several rounds.
This appears to have been a targeted incident, not a random act.
The home was occupied at the time with no injuries reported.
The case is being investigated by the OPD. If you have any information about the incident, contact Detective Travis Ardolf at (507) 774-7216.

A Texas mother and her husband rescued a baby found abandoned in an outdoor shed after some suspicious activity spotted on a security camera followed by barks from their dog led them to find the child.
Katharine McClain, 52, and her husband John McClain, 54, said they woke up early over the weekend to the sound of a truck driving away from their home in the small town of Livingston.
Their security camera showed a man, without a shirt on, checking cars on the property.
McClain said, "My dog was barking around the shed and my husband went out there to see what was going on.... opened the door and the baby was laying on the floor."
Her husband said, “I turned around and told my wife, ‘Call 911. There’s a baby in there.’”
The couple called emergency services, who then took the baby to a Houston-area hospital for treatment.
The father is now facing charges related to child abandonment.
“I’m a mom,” Ms. McClain said. “I was pretty frantic and just shocked. It’s still kind of got me a little bit.”
The couple has offered to adopt the baby and wishes the best for the father.
“I just want her to be happy and live a good life, and if they give her to me, I’ll take her in a heartbeat and she’ll never have any worries again,” Ms McClain said.
The suspect was later identified through surveillance footage and other evidence as 43-year-old Clifford Jason Guynes.
Guynes was taken to jail with a bond set at $200,000.
Authorities say they're investigating why Guynes was released from jail following a recent arrest in Texas. He reportedly has a criminal record that includes charges of assault and drug violations. | https://www.kivitv.com/news/national/texas-couple-rescues-baby-found-abandoned-in-outdoor-shed | 2022-09-27 03:11:17 | 1 | https://www.kivitv.com/news/national/texas-couple-rescues-baby-found-abandoned-in-outdoor-shed |
Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck said “I do" again this weekend.
But instead of in a late night Las Vegas drive through chapel, this time it was in front of friends and family in Georgia, a person close to the couple who was not authorized to speak publicly said Sunday.
According to People Magazine, the wedding was held at Affleck’s home outside of Savannah, Georgia, with all of their kids present for the proceedings on Saturday.
The celebrity couple were officially married last month in Las Vegas, which Lopez shared with fans in her “On the J Lo” newsletter.
“Love is beautiful. Love is kind. And it turns out love is patient. Twenty years patient,” Lopez wrote last month, signing off as Jennifer Lynn Affleck.
Lopez, 53, and Affleck, 50, famously dated in the early 2000s. They starred together in 2003′s “Gigli” and 2004′s “Jersey Girl” and became engaged but didn’t wed at the time.
Paparazzi has feverishly trailed the couple since they rekindled their romance last year, from the earliest stages of the courtship, to their red carpet debut at last year’s Venice International Film Festival and their recent honeymoon in Paris.
Representatives for the couple did not immediately respond to request for comment Sunday. | https://www.sfchronicle.com/news/article/Lopez-and-Affleck-celebrate-marriage-with-17388069.php | 2022-08-21 18:22:49 | 0 | https://www.sfchronicle.com/news/article/Lopez-and-Affleck-celebrate-marriage-with-17388069.php |
DES MOINES – So far this year, 110 people have died in Iowa car crashes. This is the highest number in the past five years. With millions of drivers hitting the road this Memorial Day weekend, it is more important than ever that people drive safe.
Sergeant Alex Dinkla of the Iowa State Patrol said that this weekend the Iowa State Patrol will be on guard to enforce traffic laws.
“We’re going to be out there in full force. We’re going to be out there keeping Iowans safe, keeping motorists safe, but we also want to give the message we can’t do this alone,” Sgt. Dinkla said. “So we need other people to realize what are they doing, what are you doing to keep yourself safe because at the end of the day we want to make it home safe and we know that you want to make it home safe to your families as well.”
The Iowa State Patrol and Department of Transportation do their best to make the roads safe, but ultimately it’s those behind the wheel that have the most agency.
Steve Gent with the Iowa Department of Transportation said that drivers need to take responsibility to ensure the safety of themselves and others on the road.
“What it really comes down to having you and your family be safe, that’s really up to the driver at this point right? And that’s really what we need drivers to be thinking about and aware of because driving is most likely the most dangerous thing any of us do any day. And we don’t think about it because we drive all the time right and we don’t get in a crash so we don’t expect to,” Gent said.
Of the 110 traffic deaths this year, nearly half were not wearing a seatbelt. Around 30% of the fatal crashes had drivers that were impaired by drugs and alcohol.
Drinking responsibly, driving the speed limit, and wearing a seatbelt are all critical to reducing traffic deaths in the state of Iowa. | https://who13.com/news/iowa-news/iowa-traffic-deaths-trending-upward-into-memorial-day-weekend/ | 2022-05-27 13:40:20 | 1 | https://who13.com/news/iowa-news/iowa-traffic-deaths-trending-upward-into-memorial-day-weekend/ |

High Prices Boost 2Q 2022 Wireless LAN Revenue, Manufacturers' Backlogs Remain Enormous
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Sept. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a recently published report from Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, networks, and data center industries, the Wireless LAN market jumped to a new high in the second quarter, eclipsing $2 Billion, with HPE Aruba and Juniper Mist overcoming supply constraints to contribute over two thirds of the shipment growth outside China. Enterprises saw a 10 percent increase in average prices compared to last year, boosting manufacturers' revenues and helping to defray additional costs.
"HPE and Juniper really pulled rabbits out of their hats this quarter ̶ Aruba and Mist represent the majority of the growth in units shipped outside China," says Siân Morgan, Wireless LAN Research Director at Dell'Oro Group. "It's like a game of whack-a-mole for the manufacturers. They'll get their hands on one particular access point component and then another shortage will pop up. We're expecting shipments to be lumpy through the next few quarters. Cisco has promised shipments 'en masse' for enterprises, and all of the manufacturers are busy finding creative solutions: redesigning products, using brokerage firms, or bypassing component distributors.
"Wireless LAN solutions have also become more expensive for enterprises. It's very rare to see such a long stretch of quarters with year-over-year price increases. It's a combination of higher-end products being available, including the new Wi-Fi 6E technology, as well as a general move by the manufacturers to cover their escalating costs. Looking ahead we have to ask ourselves how long the market will bear these higher prices," added Morgan.
Additional highlights from the 2Q 2022 Wireless LAN Quarterly Report:
- The Wireless LAN market saw two distinct phenomena driving the growth: one in China, and another one in the markets outside China.
- In light of the China lockdowns, the Wireless LAN market in China showed surprising strength with both Huawei and H3C pulling in strong quarters.
- Wi-Fi 6E shipments accelerated this quarter, as another half dozen vendors started shipping products supporting the new 6 GHz band. However, now in its fourth quarter of product availability, Wi-Fi 6E is lagging the adoption rate of the prior two generations of Wi-Fi.
- Revenue from public cloud-managed APs has outpaced the market. The cloud-managed AP business is still dominated by Cisco – although this quarter, Juniper grabbed an outsized market share in cloud-managed Wireless LAN.
The Dell'Oro Group Wireless LAN Quarterly Report offers complete, in-depth coverage of the Enterprise Outdoor and Indoor markets, Wireless LAN Controllers with tables containing manufacturers' revenue, average selling prices, and unit shipments by the following wireless standards: 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6 and 6E [6 GHz]), 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) Wave 1 vs. Wave 2, and historic IEEE 802.11 standards. The Enterprise market is portrayed by Public Cloud vs. Premises and Private Cloud deployments, as well as by ten Vertical markets and by Customer Size.

It’s important to keep your dog’s nails short, as too-long nails are prone to cracking and splitting, which can be extremely painful. Dog nail grinders help you keep your canine companion’s nails at an appropriate length and offer some advantages over nail clippers.
If you’re still unsure about whether a nail grinder is right for you and your dog, you might want to learn more about them and how to use them. Once you’re ready to buy, it’s good to know which ones are worth your money.
In this article: Dremel PawControl Dog Nail Grinder and Trimmer, Wahl Professional Animal Pet Nail Grinder and Casfuy Six-Speed Dog Nail Grinder.
What is a dog nail grinder?
A nail grinder for dogs is an alternative to canine nail clippers. It has a rotating grinding head that you touch against your dog’s nails to shorten them. It’s a great choice for anyone who’s nervous about using a nail clipper on their dog or for dogs who don’t like having their nails clipped in the conventional way.
Why use a nail grinder on your dog instead of clippers?
These are some of the benefits of using a nail grinder and why you might want to use one instead of nail clippers.
- Reduced chance of injury: Dog nail grinders are less likely to cause pain or injury to your dog’s nails compared to traditional clippers.
- Avoids over-trimming: It’s easy to accidentally cut through the quick of a dog’s nail using nail clippers, especially if your dog has dark nails. Grinders allow for more precise control over the length of the nails, making it easier to avoid over-trimming.
- Good for nervous dogs: Some dogs are reluctant to have their nails trimmed, but grinders may be less intimidating for them.
- Easier to trim: Grinders are a good option for dogs with thick, dark nails that are difficult to cut with clippers.
- Adjustability: Most dog nail grinders come with different speed options, which allows you to adjust the speed to your dog’s comfort level.
- Less chance of nails splitting: Using a grinder to file the nails can prevent the nails from cracking or splitting, which is painful for dogs.
How to use a dog nail grinder
If you’re new to using a grinder on your dog’s nails, it’s important to learn the process before you get started. You should also check the instruction manual of the grinder you buy for any product-specific advice.
- Introduce the grinder slowly: Get your dog comfortable with the grinder by letting it sniff and investigate it before turning it on. If your dog is particularly nervous, don’t start trimming the nails on the first day you introduce the grinder. Instead, start by touching the grinder to the nails while it’s off, giving lots of treats and praise and gradually work up to turning it on and using it on your dog.
- Prepare to trim: Hold the grinder securely in one hand and place your other hand on your dog’s paw to hold it steady.
- Start with caution: Begin by gently grinding the tip of your dog’s nails, being careful not to grind too much or too quickly and keeping the grinder at a slight angle to avoid the quick.
- Keep checking: As the nail becomes shorter, regularly check to see if the end of the quick is coming into view on the underside of the nail to make sure you aren’t grinding too close.
- Repeat until done: Once you have finished grinding one nail, give your dog plenty of praise. Then, move on to the next one, repeating the process until all nails have been trimmed. While you’re getting your dog used to the grinder, you might want to give a small treat after you’ve finished each nail or each paw.

KOKOMO, Ind. — Kokomo police arrested a Muncie officer accused of operating a vehicle while intoxicated.
Kokomo officers responded to a crash around 5 a.m. Friday on US 31, near mile marker 163.5. Upon arrival, officers spoke with one of the drivers, identified as Corey Posey, who informed officers that he was traveling on US 31 and rear-ended another vehicle.
The driver of the other vehicle told officers he saw Posey’s vehicle approaching him quickly from behind before the collision.
A witness told police that Posey was driving beyond the posted speed and making erratic lane changes.
According to the department, police smelled alcohol on Posey’s breath. An officer asked Posey if he was willing to submit to a breathalyzer. At that time, Posey informed police that he was an active officer with Muncie Police Department and had been an officer since 2018.
Posey was transported to the Howard County Criminal Justice Center, where a breathalyzer showed he tested over the legal limit.
Posey is preliminarily charged with two counts of operating a vehicle while intoxicated.
Posey is one of four Muncie police officers indicted in connection with an excessive force and obstruction investigation. His trial last month ended in a mistrial. A new court date is set for September in that case. | https://fox59.com/news/indynews/muncie-police-officer-arrested-in-owi-case/ | 2023-07-10 15:07:00 | 1 | https://fox59.com/news/indynews/muncie-police-officer-arrested-in-owi-case/ |

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida Republicans on Monday advanced two key initiatives of Gov. Ron DeSantis as he prepares for an expected presidential run — banning gender affirming care for minors and eliminating diversity programs in colleges.
The proposals have cleared separate committees but must still win approval from the full House and Senate chambers.
DeSantis is pursing an aggressive conservative agenda on race, gender and education ahead of his expected candidacy, continuing a stance that has made him one of the most popular Republicans in the country.
The Republican supermajority in the statehouse is set to rubber stamp virtually all DeSantis’ priorities during this year’s legislative session, giving the governor a platform of policy wins that could prove popular during a GOP primary.
The governor has been a leading critic of diversity, equity and inclusion programs in colleges, known as DEI, as well as Critical Race Theory, which is a way of thinking about American history through the lens of racism.
Ahead of Monday’s committee vote, DeSantis held a roundtable discussion to criticize diversity programs as racially divisive and discriminatory. He has frequently targeted the programs in criticism of what he calls “woke” ideology in education.
“In Florida, we are not going to back down to the woke mob, and we will expose the scams they are trying to push onto students across the country,” DeSantis said. “Florida students will receive an education, not a political indoctrination.”
The proposal would bar colleges from using state or federal funding for diversity, equity and inclusion programs. It would prevent schools from having course curricula involving Critical Race Theory or so-called radical feminist theory, radical gender theory, queer theory, critical social justice or intersectionality.
In addition, universities would be able to conduct post-tenure reviews of faculty at any time for cause, in addition to a required review every five years.
Critics said the bill would disadvantage college students when they seek employment after graduation, could endanger accreditation of Florida courses and would stifle academic freedom on campuses.
“It’s not the responsibility of the state to define or dictate what we can or cannot learn. That is our choice, especially as adults within higher ed institutions,” said Rep. Anna Eskamani, a Democrat. “Why are we scared of these topics? Why do we not want adults like me in public universities who choose to learn about these theories to have an opportunity to learn about it, to question it, to debate it?”
Scholars developed Critical Race Theory during the 1970s and 1980s in response to what scholars viewed as a lack of racial progress following the civil rights legislation of the 1960s. The theory centers on the idea that racism is systemic in the nation’s institutions, which function to maintain the dominance of white people in society.
Last year the governor signed legislation dubbed the Stop WOKE Act that restricts certain race-based conversations and analysis in schools and businesses. The law bars instruction that says members of one race are inherently racist or should feel guilt for past actions committed by others of the same race, among other things.
Dozens of transgender people, parents with transgender children and their supporters gathered in a Senate committee room to speak against the bill banning gender-affirming care for minors.
Opponents said it would lead to higher suicide rates, depression and anxiety and would cause far more harm than good.
Democratic lawmakers said their Republican colleagues are backing government intervention in private conversations families have with their doctors and stripping those families of their rights to care for their children.
Democratic Sen. Tracie Davis addressed her remarks to the people who testified against the bill.
“What we’ve done today with this legislation is vilify who you are,” Davis said. “There are children out there who believe they are better off dead because of the lack of support, and all you said today is say, ‘Love me as I am.’”
Republican Sen. Clay Yarborough said his bill is about protecting children, and told opponents he respects them.
“Every person was created with extraordinary worth, incredible value and a unique purpose from the time they were created. You can’t change that,” Yarborough said. “We need to let kids be kids, and our laws need to set appropriate boundaries that respect the rights and responsibilities of parents while protecting children.” | https://www.myarklamiss.com/news/politics/ap-politics/desantis-bills-on-diversity-gender-pass-florida-committees/ | 2023-03-14 22:13:08 | 1 | https://www.myarklamiss.com/news/politics/ap-politics/desantis-bills-on-diversity-gender-pass-florida-committees/ |
Senators propose changes to electors law after Capitol riot
WASHINGTON (AP) — A bipartisan group of senators agreed Wednesday on proposed changes to the Electoral Count Act, the post-Civil War-era law for certifying presidential elections that came under intense scrutiny after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and Donald Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 election.
Long in the making, the package introduced by the group led by Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Joe Manchin of West Virginia is made up of two separate proposals. One would clarify the way states submit electors and the vice president tallies the votes in Congress. The other would bolster security for state and local election officials who have faced violence and harassment.
“From the beginning, our bipartisan group has shared a vision of drafting legislation to fix the flaws of the archaic and ambiguous Electoral Count Act of 1887,” Collins, Manchin and the other 14 senators said in a joint statement.
“We have developed legislation that establishes clear guidelines for our system of certifying and counting electoral votes,” the group wrote. “We urge our colleagues in both parties to support these simple, commonsense reforms.”
Both Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell have signaled support for the bipartisan group, but the final legislative package will undergo careful scrutiny.
Votes are not likely before fall. But with broad support from the group of 16 senators, eight Democrats and eight Republicans, who have worked behind closed doors for months with the help of outside experts, serious consideration is assured.
In a statement, Matthew Weil, executive director of the Democracy Program at the Bipartisan Policy Center, called the framework a “critical step” in shoring up ambiguities in the Electoral Count Act.
After Trump lost the 2020 election, the defeated president orchestrated an unprecedented attempt to challenge the electors sent from battleground states to the joint session of Congress on Jan. 6, when the vice president presides over certification.
Under the proposed changes, the law would be updated to ensure the governor from each state is initially responsible for submitting electors, as a way to safeguard against states sending alternative or fake elector slates.
Additionally, the law would spell out that the vice president presides over the joint session in a “solely ministerial” capacity, according to a summary page. It says the vice president “does not have any power to solely determine, accept, reject, or otherwise adjudicate disputes over electors.”
That provision is a direct reaction to Trump’s relentless efforts to pressure then Vice President Mike Pence to reject the electors being sent from certain battleground states as a way to halt the certification or tip it away from Joe Biden’s victory.
The bill also specifies the procedures around presidential transitions, including when the election outcome is disputed, to ensure the peaceful transfer of power from one administration to the next.
That’s another pushback to the way Trump blocked Biden’s team from accessing some information for his transition to the White House.
The second proposal, revolving around election security, would double the federal penalties to up to two years in prison for individuals who “threaten or intimidate election officials, poll watchers, voters or candidates,” according to the summary.
It also would seek to improve the way the U.S. Postal Service handles election mail and “provide guidance to states to improve their mail-in ballot processes.” Mail-in ballots and the role of the Postal Service came under great scrutiny during the 2020 election.
An Associated Press review of potential cases of voter fraud in six battleground states found no evidence of widespread fraud that could change the outcome of the election. A separate AP review of drop boxes used for mailed ballots also found no significant problems.

Which fake ivy leaves are best?
Keeping a houseplant alive is sometimes easier said than done, which is why artificial plants are a great stress-free alternative. These days, artificial flowers and leaves look more realistic than ever. If you want to add a little greenery to your decor, fake ivy leaves can bring some dimension and color as you decorate your walls. A top choice, the Leyaron Fake Ivy Vines Hanging Wall Plants feature beautiful, lifelike leaves without the hassle of live plant care.
What to know before you buy fake ivy leaves to decorate your walls
Fake ivy styles
There are three fake ivy variations to choose from when it comes to decorating.
- Strings: This is when the fake leaves hang on a long plastic or wire vine. It’s great for covering a lot of wall space without completely hiding the wall and provides a great draping effect.
- Bundles: Unlike string ivy, you can space individual bundles across a wall in a fun pattern. Bundles are thick, but you need more of them to cover a lot of space.
- Panels/screens: While fake ivy screens are mostly associated with outdoor privacy fences, some screens or panels wrapped in fake ivy are a thorough and efficient way to craft an eye-catching indoor accent wall.
Materials
When it comes to artificial shrubs and plant life, several fabrics and synthetic materials help give those leaves depth and realism. Metal or plastic are popular base components for fake ivy, with metal affording you the ability to bend strings at different angles. The leaves can be made of plastic or a plastic-based material, but fabric leaves are another popular choice. Silk is the most common of these fabrics.
Installation
Most fake ivy won’t come with installation equipment. If you’re not hanging fake ivy in a pot or from a mantle, you’ll need to attach it directly to the wall. This can be done with tape for temporary use or hooks for a more permanent setup. Consider a surface-safe adhesive hook like the Command Clear Hooks to prevent damage to the wall or paint.
What to look for in quality fake ivy leaves to decorate your walls
Twistability
A great benefit of wire ivy leaves is their bendability. For a truly customized design, the piece that connects the leaves to the vine should be made from wire, too. This lets you twist the leaves in different directions, helping to give the effect of a living plant. That flexibility is also a bonus fo steering the vine away from existing wall features like picture frames.
Lights
Some fake ivy vines come with LED string lights for added effect. These lights come with a battery box with an on-off switch. Some also have fun features like blinking lights, color-changing lights or a pre-set timer. LED string lights normally take AA or AAA batteries, but you’ll probably have to buy these separately as most fake ivy sets don’t come with batteries.
Realistic leaves
The best fake ivy leaves look realistic with natural-looking color tones, convincing texture and variations in leaf size. Even if the leaves aren’t an exact replica of live leaves, the important thing is that they don’t look obviously fake. Leaves that look disproportionate or rubbery can make a design look less intentional and sophisticated.
How much you can expect to spend on fake ivy leaves to decorate your walls
String and bundle ivy sets cost $8-$60, depending on the quantity. Screens or panels are more expensive, costing $30-$80 per pack.
Fake ivy leaves FAQ
Does fake ivy require maintenance?
A. Fake plants don’t require water or sunlight, but even fake plants are subject to the conditions of an environment. This means dusting the leaves the same way you would a picture frame or hanging clock.
How much fake ivy comes in one string set?
A. There’s somewhere between 80 to 200 feet of ivy per string set, depending on the size of the package. Those feet are separated out into as few as 12 or as many as 24 individual strands that can be spaced out however you like.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) laid out targets within the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice and FBI he wants included in any appropriations for the agencies this year, ranging from blocking funds for a new FBI building to defunding President Biden’s immigration policies.
“Since the start of the 118th Congress, the Committee on the Judiciary and its Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government have been conducting oversight to address the problems created by the Biden Administration and to protect fundamental civil liberties. This work has generated a number of potential reforms that the House of Representatives can advance through its ‘power of the purse,’” Jordan said in a letter to House Appropriations Committee Chairwoman Kay Granger (R-Texas) Tuesday.
The House is in the process of crafting its annual appropriations bills ahead of a Sept. 30 funding deadline — bills conservatives aim to use to push their priorities.
Jordan told reporters Tuesday that he has received “really positive feedback” from Granger’s staff about his proposals.
For Jordan, one top priority is blocking the FBI from moving its headquarters from Washington, D.C., to the Virginia or Maryland suburbs, as it has been planning for years.
“The centralization of FBI operations in the National Capitol Region has led to duplication of activity best left to the respective field offices, contributed to reduced autonomy in local field offices, and allowed improper political influence to taint law enforcement investigations and activity,” Jordan said.
Instead, Jordan suggests that the FBI move its headquarters out of the Washington area and explore using an existing FBI campus in Huntsville, Ala., as a new headquarters.
A number of other suggestions take aim at what Republicans argue is a politically biased law enforcement system, including establishing a policy that requires career Justice Department staff rather than political appointees to oversee “politically sensitive” investigations.
Jordan also aims to block funding to enforce a number of immigration, asylum and border enforcement policies crafted by the Biden administration.
“The Committee recommends prohibiting taxpayer dollars from being used to implement the Biden Administration’s radical immigration policies,” Jordan said.
A recently approved rule under the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to restrict the use of pistol brace attachments would also be reversed if Jordan gets his way. The House passed legislation to repeal the rule earlier this year, but it failed in the Senate.
Turning to foreign policy, Jordan aims to block any federal funds from being used to oppose Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s judicial reform efforts.
And Jordan wants to prohibit agencies from labeling any communications from U.S. individuals as misinformation or malinformation.
A number of Jordan’s proposed measures would be non-starters for Democrats, and even if approved in the appropriations bill related to his agencies, could be stripped from any final appropriations measure approved by the Senate.

A US House select committee will hold a televised hearing during prime time Thursday on its investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the US Capitol and the events that led up to it.
Here, compiled from Globe wire and major media reports, is what you need to know about the hearing:
How can I watch it?
All three major broadcast networks, ABC, CBS, and NBC will carry the hearings, beginning at 8 p.m. Thursday, live from Washington. Cable news channels CNN and MSNBC will also air the hearings. Fox said it would not break into Fox News programming but would air the hearings on its sister channel Fox Business Network. Fox’s much-smaller conservative competitor Newsmax has said it would air at least an hour of the hearings.

The committee is also expected to livestream the hearing on C-SPAN and on its YouTube page.
What will the hearings cover?
The Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capital said last week it would present “previously unseen material documenting January 6th,” as well as hear from witnesses, and preview future hearings.
It also said it would “provide the American people a summary of its findings about the coordinated, multi-step effort to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and prevent the transfer of power.”
What has the committee been investigating?
The probe has looked into multiple areas, including the actions of the rioters that day; security failures by Capitol Police and federal agencies; and the financing and organizing of rallies in Washington that took place before the attack.
It has also looked beyond that - to the efforts by outgoing Republican president Donald Trump and his allies to cast doubt on the election and halt the certification of Democratic President Joe Biden’s victory.
Will there be surprises?

The horrific events of Jan. 6, the day Congress was convening to certify the election, were broadcast live, and the news footage has been played over and over since. Some of the evidence uncovered by the committee, has already made headlines. But the committee has promised to unveil new material, and one member of the committee, Maryland Democrat Jamie Raskin, said in April, “The hearings will tell a story that will really blow the roof off the House.”
To keep people riveted, the committee has enlisted former ABC News president James Goldston. Axios reports that Goldston is helping the committee with a “captivating multimedia presentation” that will include pre-produced video.
“I think we’re going to use whatever resources we can to make the presentations as compelling as possible,” another committee member, California Democrat Adam Schiff, told NPR. “We need to get across the danger to our democracy, how close we came to losing it, how many multiple lines of effort there were to overturn the election, how close they came to succeeding.”
“It’s a pretty dramatic story and it has to be told in a dramatic way,” he said.
Who will testify?
British documentary filmmaker Nick Quested, who recorded members of the far-right Proud Boys as they stormed the building is expected to testify, as well as Caroline Edwards, a US Capitol Police officer who was seriously injured as the rioters, including members of the Proud Boys, shoved past police officers and forced their way into the Capitol.

The panel is expected to play some of Quested’s documentary footage. Raskin said Tuesday that in terms of video, much of what the committee will present is “things that you have not seen directly before.”
Who’s on the committee?
The committee has nine members. Seven are Democrats and two are Republicans. The chairman is Mississippi Democrat Bennie Thompson. The vice chairwoman is Wyoming Republican Liz Cheney. She has broken with other Republicans over Trump and the insurrection. She voted to impeach him and has criticized him as someone who “lit the flame.” That’s brought criticism from Trump and punishment from her party. House Democrats, however, have embraced her as courageous.
How much work has the committee done?
The committee has spent nearly a year investigating. It has interviewed more than a thousand people and pored over thousands of hours of video footage and more than 100,000 pages of documents.
Will there be more hearings?
The hearing is expected to be one of six that will be held this month. The next one is scheduled for Monday morning. After the hearings, the committee plans to release reports on its findings, including recommendations on legislative reforms, before the midterm elections.
What’s going on with the criminal cases?
While the Jan. 6 committee has been working on its broader investigation, criminal cases have been brought against the mob that invaded the Capitol. At least 861 people have been charged, with more than 300 entering guilty pleas, according to Insider. The US has won at all five jury trials held so far that included felony charges, Bloomberg News reported. About 70 people have sentenced to time behind bars, with the highest sentence, 5 years and 3 months, imposed on a Florida man who pleaded guilty to assaulting and resisting law enforcement officers using a dangerous weapon.

Tahiyra powers to win the Coronation Stakes

A school district in southwest Missouri decided to bring back spanking as a form of discipline for students — if their parents agree — despite warnings from many public health experts that the practice is detrimental to students.
Classes resumed Tuesday in the Cassville School District district for the first time since the school board in June approved bringing corporal punishment back to the 1,900-student district about 60 miles (100 kilometers) southwest of Springfield. The district had dropped the practice in 2001.
The policy states that corporal punishment will be used only when other forms of discipline, such as suspensions, have failed and then only with the superintendent’s permission.
Superintendent Merlyn Johnson told The Springfield News-Leader the decision came after an anonymous survey found that parents, students and school employees were concerned about student behavior and discipline.
“We’ve had people actually thank us for it,” he said. “Surprisingly, those on social media would probably be appalled to hear us say these things, but the majority of people that I’ve run into have been supportive.”
Parent Khristina Harkey told The Associated Press on Friday that she is on the fence about Cassville’s policy. She and her husband did not opt-in because her 6-year-old son, Anakin Modine, is autistic and would hit back if he were spanked. But she said corporal punishment worked for her when she was a “troublemaker” during her school years in California.
“There are all different types of kids,” Harkey said. “Some people need a good butt-whipping. I was one of them.”
Morgan Craven, national director of policy, advocacy and community engagement with the Intercultural Development Research Association, a national educational equity nonprofit, called corporal punishment a “wildly inappropriate, ineffective practice.”
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1977 that corporal punishment is constitutional and left it up to states to set their own policies. Craven said 19 states, many in the South, have laws allowing it in schools. The most current data from 2017-18 shows about 70,000 children in the U.S. were hit at least once in their schools.
Students who are hit at school do not fare as well academically as their peers and suffer physical and psychological trauma, Craven said. In some cases, children are hurt so badly that they need medical attention.
“If you have a situation where a kid goes to school and they could be slapped for, you know, some minor offense, it certainly creates a really hostile, unpredictable and violent environment,” Craven said. “And that’s not what we want for kids in schools.”
But Tess Walters, 54, the guardian of her 8-year-old granddaughter, had no qualms about signing the corporal punishment opt-in papers. She said the possibility of being spanked is a deterrent for her granddaughter, who has attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
“I’ve read some some people’s responses on Facebook recently, and they’re just going over the top like, ‘Oh, this is abuse, and, oh, you’re just going to threaten them with, you know, violence.’ And I’m like, ‘What? The child is getting spanked once; it’s not beatings.’ People are just going crazy. They’re just being ridiculous,” Walters said.
Mitch Prinstein, chief science officer with American Psychological Association, said decades of research shows corporal punishment will not reduce inappropriate behavior and is likely to increase aggression, rage, hostility and could lead to depression and self-esteem problems.
Prinstein said better methods for eliminating undesirable conduct including problem-solving training; rewarding positive behavior, such as with extra recess; and providing extra attention in the classroom.
“Parents are experts on what works for their own children,” Prinstein said. “But it’s important for parents to be educated on very substantial science literature demonstrating again that corporal punishment is not a consistently effective way of changing undesirable behavior.”
Sarah Font, an associate professor of sociology and public policy at Pennsylvania State University, coauthored a 2016 study on the subject. Her research found that districts using corporal punishment are generally in poor, Republican-leaning rural areas in Southern states. Font said Black children are disproportionately subjected to it, in part because the policies are more commonplace in districts with higher minority populations.
Craven also pointed to racial bias that leads people to view the behavior of Black students differently from other students.
“And the thing that I always have to say — that I hate that I have to say — is that Black children are not more likely to misbehave in school. They’re not more likely to break school rules,” she said.
Cassville School District spokeswoman Mindi Artherton was out of the office Friday and a woman who answered the phone in her office suggested reading the policy. She said staff had already done interviews. “At this time, we will focus on educating our students,” she added, before hanging up.
The policy says a witness from the district must be present and that the discipline will not be used in front of other students.
“When it becomes necessary to use corporal punishment, it shall be administered so that there can be no chance of bodily injury or harm,” the policy says. “Striking a student on the head or face is not permitted.”
In Missouri, periodic efforts to ban corporal punishment in schools have failed to gain traction in the Legislature. The state does not track which districts allow spanking because those decisions are made at the local level, a spokeswoman for Missouri’s K-12 education department said.
U.S. Sen. Christopher Murphy, a Connecticut Democrat, is pushing for a ban on the use of corporal punishment in schools that receive federal funding. He has called it a “barbaric practice” that allows teachers and administrators to physically abuse students. | https://www.fox16.com/news/national/ap-missouri-school-district-reinstates-corporal-punishment/ | 2022-08-26 21:46:56 | 0 | https://www.fox16.com/news/national/ap-missouri-school-district-reinstates-corporal-punishment/ |

As if the minty taste of Tic Tacs weren’t already refreshing enough, the brand has teamed up with Sprite to launch a Tic Tac that also captures the lemon-lime sizzle of the soft drink.
New Tic Tac Sprite mints have flavors inspired by the soft drink, of course — but The Ferrero Group, the maker of Tic Tacs, says the mints provide the “tingly, refreshing feeling” you would expect from a combination of the two brands.
The limited-edition flavor is in stores now, although Tic Tac does not say how long it will be around. You’ll find it in three sizes: 50-count (.84 ounce), 60-count (1 ounce) and 200-count (3.4 ounces).
Tic Tac Sprite follows the launch of Tic Tac Coca-Cola, which hit stores in 2020. Both flavors are the result of a partnership with The Coca-Cola Company.
While those were also a limited edition, the flavor is actually still in stores now. The Ferrero Group says in a news release that these Tic Tacs give consumers an “incomparable taste experience which combines the refreshment of Coca-Cola with the iconicity of Tic Tac.”
While soda-flavored Tic Tacs are certainly unique, the brand also has other non-mint varieties, offering single flavors like Orange and Freshmints and mixes like Strawberry & Cream and Fruit Adventure.
Soda flavors are actually having a bit of a moment right now, with Blue Bell recently launching a Dr Pepper ice cream.
Dr Pepper Float ice cream blends vanilla ice cream with Dr Pepper-flavored sherbet for a much-less-messy way to enjoy a Dr Pepper float. You can eat it in a bowl or atop a cone. Or, use it in a float anyway in place of vanilla ice cream for an even stronger Dr Pepper flavor.
The ice cream is a limited-time offering, but Blue Bell says it will be in stores through 2024 in both pints and half-gallons. It is available in the 23 states where you can buy other Blue Bell flavors. You can also order it online and have it shipped right to your door.

Vols fan celebrates too hard, tears ACL after Tennessee win over Alabama
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT/Gray News) – A Volunteers fan celebrated a little too hard after Tennessee’s winning field goal over Alabama and tore his ACL.
Saturday, the Vols managed a 52-49 victory over the Tide in a last-second field goal. After the game, fans rushed the field, tearing up the turf and even taking the goalposts to the Tennessee River.
Matt Wheeler wasn’t at the game, but his celebrations ended in some damage of his own.
“It’s kind of like a knife being shoved in the side of your leg. Maybe a really sharp and intense pain and then I don’t know if it was the adrenaline or me being so happy, but I didn’t really feel it until I went to bed that night,” Wheeler described of the moment he tore his ACL.
Wheeler jumped in the air while watching the immediate aftermath of the historic game.
He sent a video to WVLT News and said an MRI confirmed the injury.
“I guess I’ll be more calm going forward unless they beat Georgia and then it’ll break the other one,” Wheeler joked.

NEW YORK (AP) — Jalen Brunson, like a good point guard, was trying to set up his teammate.
Josh Hart wasn’t ready for the pass. Not when he was busy with a mouthful of pizza.
“You can finish chewing,” Brunson said.
That was following Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals Tuesday night, when the New York Knicks teammates sat side by side for their latest interview room act. Brunson attempted to let Hart take a question, but talking hoops at that moment would have meant talking with food in his mouth.
Brunson had scored 30 points and Hart just missed a triple-double in a 111-105 victory over the Miami Heat that tied the series. With another win behind them, it was time for the other fun part of the Knicks’ long-awaited postseason success.
Reunited this season, the former teammates at Villanova have turned the press conference into press comedy.
“Josh is a clown, so he contributes to that more than I do,” Brunson said.
Indeed, Brunson is the straight man, looking alternatively annoyed and amused as Hart sits next to him while feasting on his postgame snack.
Popcorn one game. Chicken wings another. And pizza after the most recent.
“It’s like an SNL skit. I don’t know why the two of them have to be in there together all the time, but it’s comical,” Jay Wright, their coach at Villanova, said with a laugh.
Now retired, Wright was their target Tuesday when Brunson was asked if the coach would have allowed Hart to be eating during his postgame interviews.
Brunson wouldn’t comment on that, but the two quickly turned the question into their opportunity to publicly call out Wright for not yet coming to a game.
“They torched me,” said Wright, who added his former players have arranged for him and his wife, Patty, to attend Game 5 at Madison Square Garden.
Brunson and Hart helped the Wildcats to the 2016 NCAA title and Brunson was still there for another championship in 2018. They became teammates again this season after the Knicks, who had signed Brunson away from Dallas over the summer, acquired Hart from Portland.
Brunson was sitting for his postgame interview after a victory in Cleveland in the opening game of the playoffs when Hart entered and sat next to him, wearing a T-shirt with a picture of Brunson’s face from his Slam Magazine cover on the front.
They have continued together after all the Knicks’ victories, though Hart spoke alongside RJ Barrett after the Game 1 loss to Miami.
Usually serious in that setting, Brunson hasn’t been able to keep from laughing a few times when Hart makes him the butt of jokes. Asked if he considered Brunson a star player, Hart responded that he was “undersized, overrated, overpaid.”
When Brunson was asked about one basket that a reporter called a dunk, Hart blurted out, “layup,” to make clear that his 6-foot-2 teammate didn’t exactly shake the rim like a Shaq slam.
Brunson doesn’t impress Hart with his ability as a golfer either, with a club or a console in his hand. When recently set to play a video game version, the reaction from Hart’s wife was a reminder that not everyone loves the duo spending so much time together.
“She was like, ‘Didn’t you guys just see each other?’” Hart said. “I’m like, ‘Yes, technically.’ But that’s just how we are.”
Wright enjoys watching them, proud his players have become such an important part of a Knicks team that is in the second round of the playoffs for the first time in 10 years.
Now he has no choice but to go see the team in person.
“I don’t like going to the games too much,” Wright said. “I love watching the games on TV, I really do. But they’re calling me out now. I’ve got to go.”

MOSCOW — Mikhail Gorbachev, who set out to revitalize the Soviet Union but ended up unleashing forces that led to the collapse of communism, the breakup of the state and the end of the Cold War, died Tuesday. The last Soviet leader was 91.
Gorbachev died after a long illness, according to a statement issued by the Central Clinical Hospital in Moscow. No other details were given.
Though in power less than seven years, Gorbachev unleashed a breathtaking series of changes. But they quickly overtook him and resulted in the collapse of the authoritarian Soviet state, the freeing of Eastern European nations from Russian domination and the end of decades of East-West nuclear confrontation.
U.S. President Joe Biden called Gorbachev a “man of remarkable vision” and a “rare leader” who had “the imagination to see that a different future was possible and the courage to risk his entire career to achieve it.
“The result was a safer world and greater freedom for millions of people,” Biden said in a statement.
“Hard to think of a single person who altered the course of history more in a positive direction” than Gorbachev, said Michael McFaul, a political analyst and former U.S. ambassador in Moscow, on Twitter. “Gorbachev was an idealist who believed in the power of ideas and individuals. We should learn from his legacy.”
Gorbachev’s decline was humiliating. His power hopelessly sapped by an attempted coup against him in August 1991, he spent his last months in office watching republic after republic declare independence until he resigned on Dec. 25, 1991. The Soviet Union wrote itself into oblivion a day later.
A quarter-century after the collapse, Gorbachev told The Associated Press that he had not considered using widespread force to try to keep the USSR together because he feared chaos in the nuclear country.
“The country was loaded to the brim with weapons. And it would have immediately pushed the country into a civil war,” he said.
Many of the changes, including the Soviet breakup, bore no resemblance to the transformation that Gorbachev had envisioned when he became Soviet leader in March 1985.
By the end of his rule, he was powerless to halt the whirlwind he had started. Yet Gorbachev may have had a greater impact on the second half of the 20th century than any other political figure.
“I see myself as a man who started the reforms that were necessary for the country and for Europe and the world,” Gorbachev told the AP in a 1992 interview shortly after he left office.
“I am often asked, would I have started it all again if I had to repeat it? Yes, indeed. And with more persistence and determination,” he said.
Gorbachev won the 1990 Nobel Peace Prize for his role in ending the Cold War and spent his later years collecting accolades and awards from all corners of the world. Yet he was widely despised at home.
RELATED: Gorbachev’s 1990 visit to Minnesota was a big deal. Highlights and memories.
Russians blamed him for the 1991 implosion of the Soviet Union — a once-fearsome superpower whose territory fractured into 15 separate nations. His former allies deserted him and made him a scapegoat for the country’s troubles.
His run for president in 1996 was a national joke, and he polled less than 1% of the vote.
In 1997, he resorted to making a TV ad for Pizza Hut to earn money for his charitable foundation.
“In the ad, he should take a pizza, divide it into 15 slices like he divided up our country, and then show how to put it back together again,” quipped Anatoly Lukyanov, a one-time Gorbachev supporter.
Gorbachev never set out to dismantle the Soviet system. What he wanted to do was improve it.
Soon after taking power, Gorbachev began a campaign to end his country’s economic and political stagnation, using “glasnost,” or openness, to help achieve his goal of “perestroika,” or restructuring.
In his memoirs, he said he had long been frustrated that in a country with immense natural resources, tens of millions were living in poverty.
“Our society was stifled in the grip of a bureaucratic command system,” Gorbachev wrote. “Doomed to serve ideology and bear the heavy burden of the arms race, it was strained to the utmost.”
Once he began, one move led to another: He freed political prisoners, allowed open debate and multi-candidate elections, gave his countrymen freedom to travel, halted religious oppression, reduced nuclear arsenals, established closer ties with the West and did not resist the fall of Communist regimes in Eastern European satellite states.
But the forces he unleashed quickly escaped his control.
Long-suppressed ethnic tensions flared, sparking wars and unrest in trouble spots such as the southern Caucasus region. Strikes and labor unrest followed price increases and shortages of consumer goods.
In one of the low points of his tenure, Gorbachev sanctioned a crackdown on the restive Baltic republics in early 1991.
The violence turned many intellectuals and reformers against him. Competitive elections also produced a new crop of populist politicians who challenged Gorbachev’s policies and authority.
Chief among them was his former protégé and eventual nemesis, Boris Yeltsin, who became Russia’s first president.
“The process of renovating this country and bringing about fundamental changes in the international community proved to be much more complex than originally anticipated,” Gorbachev told the nation as he stepped down.
“However, let us acknowledge what has been achieved so far. Society has acquired freedom; it has been freed politically and spiritually. And this is the most important achievement, which we have not fully come to grips with in part because we still have not learned how to use our freedom.”
There was little in Gorbachev’s childhood to hint at the pivotal role he would play on the world stage. On many levels, he had a typical Soviet upbringing in a typical Russian village. But it was a childhood blessed with unusual strokes of good fortune.
Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev was born March 2, 1931, in the village of Privolnoye in southern Russia. Both of his grandfathers were peasants, collective farm chairmen and members of the Communist Party, as was his father.
Despite stellar party credentials, Gorbachev’s family did not emerge unscathed from the terror unleashed by Soviet dictator Josef Stalin: Both grandfathers were arrested and imprisoned for allegedly anti-Soviet activities.
But, rare in that period, both were eventually freed. In 1941, when Gorbachev was 10, his father went off to war, along with most of the other men from Privolnoye.
Meanwhile, the Nazis pushed across the western steppes in their blitzkrieg against the Soviet Union; they occupied Privolnoye for five months.
When the war was over, young Gorbachev was one of the few village boys whose father returned. By age 15, Gorbachev was helping his father drive a combine harvester after school and during the region’s blistering, dusty summers.
His performance earned him the order of the Red Banner of Labor, an unusual distinction for a 17-year-old. That prize and the party background of his parents helped him land admission in 1950 to the country’s top university, Moscow State.
There, he met his wife, Raisa Maximovna Titorenko, and joined the Communist Party. The award and his family’s credentials also helped him overcome the disgrace of his grandfathers’ arrests, which were overlooked in light of his exemplary Communist conduct.
In his memoirs, Gorbachev described himself as something of a maverick as he advanced through the party ranks, sometimes bursting out with criticism of the Soviet system and its leaders.
His early career coincided with the “thaw” begun by Nikita Khrushchev. As a young communist propaganda official, he was tasked with explaining the 20th Party Congress that revealed Soviet dictator Josef Stalin’s repression of millions to local party activists. He said he was met first by “deathly silence,” then disbelief.
“They said: ‘We don’t believe it. It can’t be. You want to blame everything on Stalin now that he’s dead,’” he told the AP in a 2006 interview.
He was a true if unorthodox believer in socialism. He was elected to the powerful party Central Committee in 1971, took over Soviet agricultural policy in 1978 and became a full Politburo member in 1980.
Along the way, he was able to travel to the West, to Belgium, Germany, France, Italy and Canada. Those trips had a profound effect on his thinking, shaking his belief in the superiority of Soviet-style socialism.
“The question haunted me: Why was the standard of living in our country lower than in other developed countries?” he recalled in his memoirs. “It seemed that our aged leaders were not especially worried about our undeniably lower living standards, our unsatisfactory way of life, and our falling behind in the field of advanced technologies.”
But Gorbachev had to wait his turn. Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev died in 1982, and was succeeded by two other geriatric leaders: Yuri Andropov, Gorbachev’s mentor, and Konstantin Chernenko.
It wasn’t until March 1985, when Chernenko died, that the party finally chose a younger man to lead the country: Gorbachev. He was 54 years old.
His tenure was filled with rocky periods, including a poorly conceived anti-alcohol campaign, the Soviet military withdrawal from Afghanistan, and the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.
But starting in November 1985, Gorbachev began a series of attention-grabbing summit meetings with world leaders, especially U.S. Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush, which led to unprecedented, deep reductions in the American and Soviet nuclear arsenals.
After years of watching a parade of stodgy leaders in the Kremlin, Western leaders practically swooned over the charming, vigorous Gorbachev and his stylish, brainy wife.
But perceptions were very different at home. It was the first time since the death of Soviet founder Vladimir Lenin that the wife of a Soviet leader had played such a public role, and many Russians found Raisa Gorbachev showy and arrogant.
Although the rest of the world benefited from the changes Gorbachev wrought, the rickety Soviet economy collapsed in the process, bringing with it tremendous economic hardship for the country’s 290 million people.
In the final days of the Soviet Union, the economic decline accelerated into a steep skid. Hyper-inflation robbed most older people of their life’s savings. Factories shut down. Bread lines formed.
And popular hatred for Gorbachev and his wife, Raisa, grew. But the couple won sympathy in summer 1999 when it was revealed that Raisa Gorbachev was dying of leukemia.
During her final days, Gorbachev spoke daily with television reporters, and the lofty-sounding, wooden politician of old was suddenly seen as an emotional family man surrendering to deep grief.
Gorbachev worked on the Gorbachev Foundation, which he created to address global priorities in the post-Cold War period, and with the Green Cross foundation, which was formed in 1993 to help cultivate “a more harmonious relationship between humans and the environment.”
In 2000, Gorbachev took the helm of the small United Social Democratic Party in hopes it could fill the vacuum left by the Communist Party, which he said had failed to reform into a modern leftist party after the breakup of the Soviet Union. He resigned from the chairmanship in 2004.
He continued to comment on Russian politics as a senior statesman — even if many of his countrymen were no longer interested in what he had to say.
“The crisis in our country will continue for some time, possibly leading to even greater upheaval,” Gorbachev wrote in a memoir in 1996. “But Russia has irrevocably chosen the path of freedom, and no one can make it turn back to totalitarianism.”
Gorbachev veered between criticism and mild praise for current Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has been assailed for backtracking on the democratic achievements of the Gorbachev and Yeltsin eras.
While he said Putin did much to restore stability and prestige to Russia after the tumultuous decade following the Soviet collapse, Gorbachev protested growing limitations on media freedom, and in 2006 bought one of Russia’s last investigative newspapers, Novaya Gazeta.
Gorbachev also spoke out against Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. A day after the Feb. 24 attack, he issued a statement calling for “an early cessation of hostilities and immediate start of peace negotiations.”
“There is nothing more precious in the world than human lives. Negotiations and dialogue on the basis of mutual respect and recognition of interests are the only possible way to resolve the most acute contradictions and problems,” he said.
Gorbachev ventured into other new areas in his 70s, winning awards and kudos around the world. He won a Grammy in 2004 along with former U.S. President Bill Clinton and Italian actress Sophia Loren for their recording of Prokofiev’s “Peter and the Wolf,” and the United Nations named him a Champion of the Earth in 2006 for his environmental advocacy.
Gorbachev is survived by a daughter, Irina, and two granddaughters.
The official news agency Tass reported that he will be buried at Moscow’s Novodevichy cemetery next to his wife.

(AP) — “Hamilton” creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, pop star Ricky Martin and award-winning actress/singer Michaela Jae Rodriguez joined the Hispanic Federation this summer to launch an advocacy initiative to serve Latinx LGBTQ+ communities.
The Advance Change Together initiative will provide 20 Latinx nonprofits grants of $25,000 to $50,000 to support their efforts and infrastructure in those communities. The Hispanic Federation, the national nonprofit dedicated to Latino empowerment, will fund the initiative with a $1 million grant for the first two years. But it hopes to encourage other donors to support and expand the program, which will also convene a summit to set a national agenda for LGBTQ+ groups.
Frankie Miranda, president and CEO of the Hispanic Federation said the initiative, announced in Florida, is a necessary expansion of the group’s existing work with the LGBTQ+ community.
“We have been identifying all this anti-LGBTQ legislation popping up around the country,” he said. “It’s an indication that once certain groups that have been focusing on abortion get the result they want from the Supreme Court, we’re forecasting that the next frontier is to intensify anti-LGBTQ legislation across the country. We’re seeing it right now.”
Miranda points to the recently passed so-called “Don’t Say Gay” legislation in Florida, which bars instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through the third grade, as well as the Pulse shooting in 2016, when 49 were killed at the Orlando LGBTQ+ nightclub, as examples of why the community needs more support.
“It is estimated that less than 1% of foundation funds go to Latinx organizations,” Miranda said. “When we apply that to LGBTQ-oriented organizations, we see that it’s much, much less. So this is our call for action. We are not going to wait.”
Lin-Manuel Miranda (no relation) said the Pulse shooting feels as though it happened yesterday. It’s a tragedy that he will always be connected to, because he immortalized it in his Tony acceptance speech for “Hamilton” — a sonnet remembered for the line “And love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love, cannot be killed or swept aside.”
“One of the deadliest shootings in our nation’s history was an act of hate against this community in Florida,” the “Encanto” composer told The Associated Press, calling the “Don’t Say Gay” law a “dispiriting” development. His Miranda Family Fund, as well as Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, made additional contributions to the ACT initiative Tuesday.
“It’s such an important reminder that the hate that led to the Pulse shooting is not in the past,” he said. “And that laws like this do nothing but encourage and allow that hate to proliferate. So we just keep having to fight.”
Lin-Manuel Miranda credits his father — Luis Miranda Jr., co-founder of the MirRam Group, a political consulting firm that has worked on campaigns for Democratic Sens. Hillary Clinton, Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand — with encouraging him to speak out on social issues and show his support through actions.
“The way the world affects me is it makes me want to write and makes me want to make things,” he said, adding that the surprise No. 1 hit “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” was his response to the COVID-19 lockdowns. “When it’s something like this – this horribly discriminatory law – and the question is ‘How do we help? How do we put our shoulder into it in a way that’s meaningful?’ I’ve got a dad who has dedicated his life to organizing and protests and putting that feeling of wanting to do something into practice.”
Ricky Martin said he wanted to become involved to battle those in power who he said look to create hate and division in the United States and Puerto Rico.
“There’s never been a more important time for communities and organizations to come together to empower one another,” Martin said in a statement. “With the ACT initiative, we’re uniting to remind Latinx LGBTQ+ organizations that they have the support they need to serve and empower their communities.”
The Hispanic Federation’s Miranda said the initiative will help Latino nonprofits reach their communities in their own way. At the launch event Tuesday, Lin-Manuel Miranda and his friend “In the Heights” actress Stephanie Beatriz, joined “Pose” actress Rodriguez and performer Valentina to bring attention to the initiative. | https://www.wjhl.com/hispanic-heritage-month/miranda-helps-launch-latinx-lgbtq-support-program/ | 2022-09-09 13:26:35 | 0 | https://www.wjhl.com/hispanic-heritage-month/miranda-helps-launch-latinx-lgbtq-support-program/ |
CHARLOTTE COUNTY, Fla. – Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Saturday will hold a news conference at Burnt Store Marina, a yachting resort in Punta Gorda.

DeSantis on Friday spoke at the Cape Coral Police Department, officiating as six recent hires there accepted checks from the Florida Law Enforcement Recruitment Bonus Payment Program. He also discussed concerns over property insurance in the wake of Hurricane Ian, describing Citizens as “unfortunately undercapitalized” and suggesting that residents with storm-damaged property determine exactly which type of claims to make, be it for flooding, wind damage or otherwise.
The governor on Thursday held news conferences in Charlotte and Lee counties, awarding $2 million from the Florida Disaster Fund to first responder groups and updating restoration efforts at Lee County schools, respectively. At the latter event, DeSantis also expressed his disappointment at a jury’s decision to recommend a life sentence for Parkland school shooter Nikolas Cruz.

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Following a spike in syphilis cases reported in Marion County, health officials are urging residents to get tested.
According to Marion County Health & Human Services, local syphilis cases increased by 216% from 2018 to 2021. In contrast, the CDC reported a 59% uptick nationwide between 2017 and 2021.
The surge in cases has been reported in men, women and newborns.
“Especially troubling is the increase in congenital syphilis cases, which happens when syphilis is transmitted during pregnancy and can lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, and serious illness and death in newborns,” said MCHHS.
Health officials urge anyone age 45 or younger who is sexually active to get tested.
MCHHS offers syphilis testing and treatment at its clinic in Salem. Appointments can be made by calling 503.588.5342
“Everyone is welcome and no one is turned away for inability to pay or lack of insurance,” according to MCHHS. | https://www.koin.com/news/health/marion-county-sees-216-uptick-in-syphilis-cases-health-officials-say/ | 2023-02-21 21:05:37 | 1 | https://www.koin.com/news/health/marion-county-sees-216-uptick-in-syphilis-cases-health-officials-say/ |
Which Citizen watch for women is best?
Looking to update your accessory collection with a new timepiece? Citizen has been manufacturing watches for over a hundred years. It sells a wide selection of watches for men and women with a reputation for producing quality products at an array of prices. The Citizen Eco-Drive Corso Stainless Steel Watch is stylish and reliable, with a beautiful dark blue dial that will look great and keep up with an active lifestyle.
What to know before you buy a Citizen watch for women
In-house production
Citizen is a vertically integrated company. This means it does all of its own production, without using external contractors or suppliers. Over the last 40 years, this Japanese company has moved toward more sustainable practices. Citizen is working to reduce world battery waste by putting a greater emphasis on light-powered technology.
Eco-Drive
Citizen watches use quartz, mechanical and Eco-Drive movements. Quartz and mechanical are pretty standard in watches, but Eco-Drive is becoming increasingly popular at Citizen. Eco-Drive watches are powered by light so all you have to do to “charge” it is leave it out in sunlight or under a lamp. A fully charged Eco-Drive watch can run for months, even in the dark, without requiring a battery replacement.
Types of bands
Citizen watches come with three styles of bands, each with a different closure method.
- Strap: This is a leather, silicone, nylon or fabric woven band with an adjustable buckle closure. It’s the easiest band to size at home without making adjustments.
- Bracelet: This is metal band with links that afford flexibility. It has a folding clasp that’s easy to open and close without assistance. It’s comfortable on the wrist, but resizing it requires tools.
- Bangle: This is an inflexible metal band, often made from stainless steel. The size might adjust a little but the form of the watch is pretty fixed.
What to look for in a quality Citizen watch for women
Water-resistant
Some Citizen watches are not water-resistant at all, while some are water-resistant up to 328 feet (100 meters) underwater. This means that the watch can withstand submersion in that deep without damage, and is safe to wear in the shower or in the pool. A watch with water resistance under 200 meters can be worn snorkeling, but not scuba diving.
Mineral crystal vs. sapphire crystal
Citizen makes watches with mineral crystal and sapphire crystal faces. Both are hard and scratch-resistant, but sapphire crystal is the higher-end option. It’s more reflective and more scratch-resistant than mineral crystal, but that also makes it more expensive.
Dial features
While Citizen makes basic, straightforward watches for women, it also products watches with extra dial features. Some list the date, or the date along with the day of the week. Others display a perpetual calendar that tracks the date, day, month and moon phase. Glow-in-the-dark numbers or hands make checking the time easy, no matter where you are.
How much you can expect to spend on a Citizen watch for women
The average Citizen watch for women costs $130-$400. Newly released watches with special features can cost up to $1,000.
Citizen watch for women FAQ
Can the watchband be changed?
A. This depends on the watch. Strap and bracelet bands are more likely to be changeable, while watches with bangle bands are usually less customizable.
Do Eco-Drive watches ever need a battery change?
A. Eco-Drive technology is designed so the watch never needs a battery change. You should, however, get the gaskets replaced once in a while. Gaskets keep your watch watertight and are automatically replaced when you get a watch battery replaced. Since Eco-Drive watches don’t need battery replacements, you’ll have to remember to replace the gaskets.
What do luminous hands do?
A. This means that the hands are crafted with a substance that lets them glow in the dark. It makes the watch easier to read in the dark without a light-up function.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
WHY: New York, N.Y., November 27, 2022. Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Enviva Inc. (NYSE: EVA) between February 21, 2019 and October 11, 2022, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important January 3, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Enviva securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Enviva class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9162 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than January 3, 2023. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Enviva had misrepresented the environmental sustainability of its wood pellet production and procurement; (2) Enviva had similarly overstated the true measure of cash flow generated by the Company's platform; (3) accordingly, Enviva had misrepresented its business model and the Company's ability to achieve the level of growth that defendants had represented to investors; and (4) as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
To join the Enviva class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9162 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.
No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

FRISCO, TX (Silver Star Nation) – Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott’s play since returning from injury has been nothing short of miraculous…well almost.
Prescott has thrown more interceptions in the last five games than he normally does in an entire season; the costliest was the overtime pick six that cost the Cowboys a victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Cowboy fans cringed on Sunday when Prescott’s latest pick six interception came on the first series against the league leading Philadelphia Eagles at AT&T Stadium.
But, Cowboys insider Mickey Spagnola says it’s the way Prescott recovered from that mishap and went on to play a nearly perfect game that really matters.
The Cowboys could still win the NFC East with wins at Tennessee on Thursday and in their final regular season game against the Washington Commanders. The Eagles would need to lose their last two games for that scenario to take place. Both the Eagles and Cowboys are in the playoffs already regardless of what happens this week and next. | https://www.krqe.com/sports/silver-star-nation/mickey-on-daks-recent-interceptions/ | 2022-12-27 23:06:27 | 0 | https://www.krqe.com/sports/silver-star-nation/mickey-on-daks-recent-interceptions/ |

Oakland restaurant workers dressed as Power Rangers kick into action to stop alleged assault
OAKLAND, Calif. - "It's Morphin' time!"
Power Rangers was undoubtedly one of the best live-action superhero series in the 90s.
The squad was in true form Friday as they took down an alleged assailant at an Oakland Ramen shop.
At the newly-opened Noka Ramen shop located at 90 Franklin Street in Jack London Square, employees dress up in Power Ranger suits on Fridays to heighten the experience of ordering the Noka Ranger cocktail inspired by the series, as mentioned by SFGate.
Those Power Ranger suits apparently came with some real superhero powers as the employees kicked into action to help a woman who was being attacked. Restaurant patrons are also credited with helping.
The saga was detailed in a series of tweets by writer Ploi Pirapokin (@ppirapokin), who witnessed it firsthand as she was dining at the ramen house.
Pirapokin said a woman had come running into the restaurant saying that she was in danger. Pirapokin said that's when a man came running in behind the woman and put her into a choke hold.
"Once the woman had expressed she wasn’t safe, and she didn’t want to go home with this man who was choke holding her, the black power ranger (the manager with a kickass bob) and the yellow ranger, told the man to leave," Pirapokin wrote.
'A city of chaos': Cotopaxi closes only SF store after repeated break-ins
The alleged assailant was ready for a fight.
Pirapokin said the man swung at the employees.
The Power Rangers determined it would be best to hide the woman in the kitchen.
"The man starts calling everyone Asian slurs & if Bruce Lee was still alive he’d kick everyone’s asses & beelines for the kitchen," Pirapokin said.
The Yellow Ranger grabbed the attacker by the collar and dragged him, out the restaurant.
Pirapokin wrote that the assailant began yelling racial slurs at the employees before the Yellow Ranger took him by the collar and dragged him out of the restaurant.
Outside the man started grabbing chair and salt and pepper shakers to throw at the windows, Pirapokin said.
Seeing that he was outnumbered, the man went and got back up.
"Man comes back with a friend (or another person bugging on the street) to try & fight the power rangers," Pirapokin tweeted. She added "More swings are swung, more power rangers pile onto the men at the door to lock them out. Locking us in."
Pirapokin said the police were called and officers eventually arrived to the scene.
Noka Ramen confirmed the incident in a social media post.
"Our NōKA Rangers were real life heroes last night," the ramen shop said. "Like our heroic namesakes, it’s not just the powers and costumes that give us strength. It’s who and what we are inside that empowers us."
Noka Ramen said it is fully cooperating with the police investigation in identifying the alleged attacker. | https://www.fox29.com/news/oakland-restaurant-workers-dressed-as-power-rangers-kick-into-action-to-stop-alleged-assault | 2022-10-19 23:01:06 | 1 | https://www.fox29.com/news/oakland-restaurant-workers-dressed-as-power-rangers-kick-into-action-to-stop-alleged-assault |
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Duke Energy said it expects to be able to restore power by Wednesday night to a county where electric substations were attacked by gunfire.
Duke Energy spokesman Jeff Brooks said the company expects to have power back Wednesday just before midnight in Moore County. The company had previously estimated it would be restored Thursday morning.
About 35,000 Duke energy customers were still without power Tuesday, down from more than 45,000 at the height of the outage Saturday.
Authorities have said the outages began shortly after 7 p.m. Saturday night after one or more people drove up to two substations, breached the gates and opened fire on them.
Authorities have not released a motive or said what kind of weapon was used.
North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper called for a thorough assessment of the state’s critical infrastructure Tuesday morning at a Council of State meeting — a collective body of elected officials comprising the executive branch. He said this will likely include discussions with federal regulators, lawmakers and utility companies about how to bolster security and prevent future attacks.
In the short-term, the state has sent generators to Moore County and is helping feed residents. Law enforcement in surrounding counties has been more vigilant about monitoring nearby substations since the attack, he said.
“This seemed to be too easy,” Cooper said after the meeting. “People knew what they were doing to disable the substation, and for that much damage to be caused — causing so much problem, economic loss, safety challenges to so many people for so long — I think we have to look at what we might need to do to harden that infrastructure.”
Mike Causey, the North Carolina insurance commissioner and state fire marshal, called the attack “a wakeup call to provide better security at our power substations.”
Many businesses around the county that’s about 60 miles (95 kilometers) southwest of the state capital of Raleigh are closed at a normally busy time of year for tourism and holiday shopping. Schools are also closed and traffic lights are out around the area.

This year’s Super Bowl features a rare matchup of the NFL’s top two teams from the regular season.
The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs were the league’s only 14-game winners, marking just the sixth time since the 1970 merger that the squads with sole possession of the two best records in the regular season met for the championship.
The last time it happened came after the 2013 season when Seattle beat Denver 43-8 in a matchup of 13-win teams.
That blowout was relatively typical of these meetings, with the average margin of victory in the previous five powerhouse matchups being 21 points.
The closest game was Washington’s 37-24 win over Buffalo following the 1991 season. The three others featured San Francisco beating Miami 38-16 after the 1984 season, Dallas topping Denver 27-10 to cap the 1977 season and Oakland beating Minnesota 32-14 the previous year.
Since seeding began in 1975, this is the 15th time the top team in each conference made it to the Super Bowl. The previous time came after the 2017 season when the Eagles won their first Super Bowl championship by beating New England 41-33.
This is also the third time both Super Bowl teams won at least 14 games in the regular season, although both Kansas City and Philadelphia needed wins in the added 17th game to get there. Atlanta and Denver did it in 16-game seasons in 1998, and Miami and San Francisco in 1984.
The Chiefs and Eagles also have been in control all postseason, with neither team trailing in the playoffs. The only other times both Super Bowl teams did that came in the 2004 season (Patriots vs. Eagles), 1991 season (Bills vs. Washington) and 1966 season (Packers vs. Chiefs).
AIR IT OUT
Patrick Mahomes will try to do something that has never been done before in the NFL by following up a regular season when he led the league in yards passing with a Super Bowl title.
Mahomes threw for 5,250 yards during the regular season — 511 more than second-place Justin Herbert for the largest gap between first and second place since Kurt Warner beat out Peyton Manning by 699 yards in 2001.
The only player to reach the Super Bowl after throwing for more yards in the regular season than Mahomes was Manning, with a record 5,477 in 2013. His Broncos lost 43-8 to Seattle in the Super Bowl.
That was one of six times before Mahomes that the player who led the league in yards passing made it to the Super Bowl, with all of them losing. The others were Tom Brady (2017 season), Brady (2007), Rich Gannon (2002), Warner (2001) and Dan Marino (1984).
COACHING REUNION
Chiefs coach Andy Reid joins Dan Reeves as the only coaches to face a franchise in the Super Bowl that they previously took to the big game.
Reid coached the Eagles to their second Super Bowl following the 2004 season before getting fired after the 2012 season. He quickly built Kansas City into a power and now is ready for his fourth Super Bowl appearance as a head coach — the ninth coach to reach that mark.
Reid will hope for better luck in his rematch than Reeves had after the 1998 season against a Denver organization he had guided to the Super Bowl in the 1986, ‘87 and ’89 seasons before losing all three. The Broncos beat Reeves and the Atlanta Falcons 34-19 in the Super Bowl.
Two other coaches faced their former teams in the Super Bowl and ended up on the winning side: Jon Gruden led Tampa Bay past the Raiders after the 2002 season and Weeb Ewbank coached the Jets to a huge upset over the Colts following the 1968 season.
The Eagles will be the sixth franchise to reach the Super Bowl under four coaches, with Nick Sirianni joining Doug Pederson, Reid and Dick Vermeil.
The Raiders, 49ers, Colts and Rams all got there with four coaches, and the Broncos did it with a record five.
TERRIFIC TIGHT END
Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has put together a playoff career topped perhaps only by the greatest receiver ever in Jerry Rice.
Kelce has 127 catches in 17 career playoff games for 1,467 yards and 15 touchdowns. The only player to top any of those numbers was Rice, with 151 catches for 2,245 yards and 22 TDs in 29 playoff games.
The Mahomes-Kelce connection also is one of the best, with their 13 TD passes in the playoffs trailing only the 15 Tom Brady threw to Rob Gronkowski.

KINSHASA, Congo (AP) — Four people participating in demonstrations against the United Nations peacekeeping mission in eastern Congo were killed Wednesday after a high-voltage power line fell on them, officials said.
Andre Byadunia, a civil society coordinator in the city of Uvira, said the demonstrators were electrocuted when an electric cable gave way in the Kilomoni district.
Uvira Deputy Mayor Kyky Kifara confirmed the incident. He said he was at the demonstration site when the cable fell and he thinks the death toll could have been higher if police and security forces had not already dispersed the crowd.
“I was there, I’ve been there since morning. There was a bullet that cut a high-voltage wire. I almost died myself, Luckily, I barely escaped,” Kifara said.
At least 15 people, including three U.N. personnel, have died and more than 60 people have been injured during what is now three days of demonstrations in eastern Congo, Congolese government spokesman Patrick Muyaya said.
Protesters accuse the peacekeepers of failing to protect civilians amid rising violence and are calling for the U.N. forces that have been in Congo for years to leave. The mission has more than 16,000 uniformed personnel in Congo, according to the U.N.
U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has condemned the violence, calling on the government to enforce justice on the perpetrators. He also underscored that any attack directed at U.N. peacekeepers might constitute a war crime.
Guterres affirmed the U.N.’s commitment to working with Congolese authorities to investigate accusations that peacekeepers may have been responsible for some deaths.
Congo’s mineral-rich east is home to myriad rebel groups. Security has worsened there despite a year of emergency operations by a joint force of the armies of Congo and Uganda. Civilians in the east have faced violence from jihadi rebels linked to the Islamic State group.
In June 2021 and June 2022, the peacekeeping mission closed its office in Congo’s Kasai Central and Tanganyika regions.
U.N. deputy spokesman Farhan Haq said the U.N. made plans to draw down its peacekeeping force and even withdraw from Congo but the force remained because the situation on the ground was too dangerous to contemplate its departure.
Fighting has escalated between Congolese troops and the M23 rebels, forcing nearly 200,000 people to flee their homes. The M23 forces have demonstrated increased firepower and defense capabilities, according to a report by Human Rights Watch.
The protests are taking place after Senate President Modeste Bahati told his supporters that the U.N. mission should “pack its bags,” saying the peacekeepers have brought no solutions to deter the thousands of deaths at the hands of rebels in eastern Congo.
Augustin Kalume, a political analyst in Congo, said that while the demonstrations have a political element, there is also genuine anger as “every passing population continues to count deaths, and the looting of natural resources.”
“The population is fed up that despite the millions of dollars that the U.N. mission has cost, these peacekeepers are unable to restore peace and security in the eastern part of Congo,” Kalume said.
U.N. children’s agency UNICEF said Wednesday that many children were manipulated into joining the demonstrations, where they were exposed to violence.
“UNICEF condemns the instrumentalization of children for political purposes and calls on authorities, members of civil society and parents to keep children safe from protests in order to protect them,” Grant Leaity, the UNICEF representative in Congo, said. | https://www.fox16.com/news/world-news/ap-international/power-line-kills-4-at-anti-un-protest-in-eastern-congo/ | 2022-07-27 20:21:56 | 0 | https://www.fox16.com/news/world-news/ap-international/power-line-kills-4-at-anti-un-protest-in-eastern-congo/ |

Ukraine updates: US nears delivery of Patriot missiles

The United States is finalizing plans to send its sophisticated Patriot air defense system to Ukraine, US media reported on Tuesday.
The move could be announced as soon as Thursday and is a response to Russia's increased bombardment of Ukrainian civilian infrastructure, US officials told the Associated Press and other organizations on the condition of anonymity.
The Patriot system consists of up to eight missile batteries plus a radar, a control station and power generation equipment. The US describes it as its "most advanced air defense system."
The system typically requires 90 soldiers to operate and maintain, but can be fired with a team of just three if needed.
"These are going to be quite capable of dealing with a lot of different challenges the Ukrainians have, especially if the Russians bring in short-range ballistic missiles [from Iran]," Alexander Vindman, a retired Army lieutenant colonel and onetime leader of Ukraine policy at the White House, told the Reuters news agency.
In recent weeks, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has asked Western governments for high-tech defense equipment in order to protect energy infrastructure, including gas pipelines and nuclear power plants.
Prior to the Russian invasion in February, Ukraine's air defense arsenal largely consisted of Soviet-era missiles and planes.
They have since been joined by the NASAMS, donated by the US, and IRIS-T, donated by Germany, among others.
Patriot missiles for Ukraine?
Here are the other top stories related to the war in Ukraine on Wednesday, December 14:
Zelenskyy addresses New Zealand parliament
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Wednesday became the second-ever foreign leader to address the parliament of New Zealand, after former Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard did so in 2011.
Zelenskyy used the rare address to shore up international support for a 10-point peace plan that would guarantee nuclear safety and environmental protection.
He said it would take years to rebuild infrastructure and the economy.
"But you can't rebuild destroyed nature, just as you can't restore destroyed lives," the Ukrainian president added.
He pointed to poisoned groundwater, ravaged forests, flooded coal mines and swathes of land that remain contaminated with unexploded mines — which make up an area the size of Cambodia, Syria or Uruguay.
The New Zealand government used the occasion to announce an additional $2 million (€1.9 million) in humanitarian aid through the Red Cross.
"Our judgment was a simple one," Kiwi Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said. "We asked ourselves the question: 'What if it was us?'"
Australian pro-Putin activist arrested at Ukraine rally
Simeon Boikov, a far-right, pro-Putin activist who goes by the name "Aussie Cossack," has been arrested for allegedly assaulting a 76-year-old attendee at a Ukraine rally in Sydney.
"Self defense, anyone touches me, I'll defend myself," Boikov can be heard saying in a video clip of the incident he posted to his Telegram channel with more than 50,000 subscribers.
Boikov has gained a following for voicing opposition to COVID-19 vaccines and has been interviewed by high-profile American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.
Police said he is due to appear in court in late January.

650 union railroaders to benefit from new sick leave benefit
ATLANTA, March 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Norfolk Southern Corporation (NYSE: NSC) announced Friday that it has reached agreements with two of its labor unions to provide up to seven paid sick days per year to their members. These agreements will provide four new days of paid sick leave while also offering flexibility to use up to three additional days of existing paid time off as sick leave. The agreements were reached with the International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail, Transportation Workers, Mechanical Department (SMART-MD) and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW). These agreements will immediately benefit approximately 650 railroaders.
"When we completed national negotiations that provided historic wage increases and platinum benefits, we committed to immediately begin work at the local level to address the desire for paid sick leave and other quality of life benefits," said Norfolk Southern President and CEO Alan Shaw. "We did just that, and with today's announcement, six of our twelve unions now have locally negotiated paid sick leave benefits."
Last month, Norfolk Southern announced agreements with the National Conference of Firemen and Oilers to extend paid sick days to 200 Mechanical railroaders, along with the Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees to extend paid sick days to 3,000 Engineering craft railroaders. These announcements follow last year's agreement reached during national bargaining to provide historic wage increases and premium health care benefits to union railroaders.
Norfolk Southern is actively engaging with all of its union leaders on ways to enhance quality of life and work predictability for its craft employees. In the coming months, the company anticipates making additional progress with its unions on shared priorities.

The northern lights are expected to be visible across several U.S. states this week, according to the University of Alaska Fairbanks.
On Wednesday and Thursday, the Kp-index, or planetary index, will be at five and six, respectively. The scale goes all the way up to nine, and any occurrence above five is considered a geomagnetic storm.
The aurora borealis could be seen across parts of Washington, Idaho, Vermont, Wyoming, New Hampshire, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Massachusetts, Maryland, Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, Maine, according to the university.
On Wednesday, the storm will be highly visible "low on the horizon from Seattle, Des Moines [Iowa], Chicago, Cleveland, Boston, and Halifax [Nova Scotia]."
On Thursday, the storm will get stronger and can be seen overhead in Minneapolis, Milwaukee; Bay City, Mich., and on the horizon in Salem, Mass.; Boise, Idaho; Cheyenne, Wyo.; Lincoln, Neb.; Indianapolis, and Annapolis, Md.
What happens during a geomagnetic storm?
During the storm, a coronal hole (the spots that appear black on the sun) prompts high winds, which in turn, trigger coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. A CME projects plasma and pieces of the sun's magnetic field into the atmosphere.
"CMEs typically take several days to arrive at Earth, but have been observed, for some of the most intense storms, to arrive in as short as 18 hours," NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center says.
What is an aurora?
The sun's activity is volatile, and in some cases, the disturbances are so strong they can pull the Earth's magnetic field away from our planet.
But, like a taut rubber band when it's released, the magnetic field snaps back, and the force of that recoil creates powerful ripples known as Alfvén waves about 80,000 miles from the ground. As those waves get closer to Earth, they move faster thanks to the planet's magnetic pull.
Sometimes electrons hitch a ride on these superfast Alfvén waves, reaching speeds as high as 45 million mph as they hurtle downward.
"Think about surfing," Jim Schroeder, an assistant professor of physics at Wheaton College who has led research on the process. "In order to surf, you need to paddle up to the right speed for an ocean wave to pick you up and accelerate you, and we found that electrons were surfing. If they were moving with the right speed relative to the wave, they would get picked up and accelerated."
When the electrons reach Earth's thin upper atmosphere, they collide with nitrogen and oxygen molecules, sending them into an excited state. The excited electrons eventually calm down and release light, which is what we see as the aurora.
How to view the aurora
The Space Weather Prediction Center says the best time to view the aurora is usually between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time.
You don't need any special equipment to see auroras.

Autumn Doldrums
Our weather pattern will remain fairly persistent into the weekend with a ridge to our south compressing the marine layer (cooler, cloudier on the coast) but also keeping inland areas warm. The ridge will migrate west out of the weekend opening the door for weather systems to sneak in from the north. It’s possible increased onshore flow ahead of this system may bring some early week drizzle and late week offshore winds and potentially higher fire danger.

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library is paying tribute to the legacy of Queen Elizabeth II.
Queen Elizabeth visited President Reagan at his ranch in Santa Barbara County back in 1983.
“When we talk about the president’s relationship with Mikhail Gorbachev, or with Margaret Thatcher, we talk about the diplomacy but for President Reagan and the queen-- it was a relationship, it was a friendship,” said Melissa Giller, chief marketing officer at the Ronald Regan Foundation and Institute.
A close friendship between a queen and an American president is back in the spotlight as the Ronald Reagan presidential library pays tribute to Britain’s longest-serving monarch.
“We have put a condolence book up in our lobby, so visitors are welcome to come up and sign it. We will be sending it to the royal family at the end of the month,” said Giller.
Queen Elizabeth visited the central coast back in 1983. The trip to Santa Barbara was marked by excitement, torrential rain, and rough seas.
“They were gonna come out via yacht and visit the President and Mrs. Reagan at his ranch in the Santa Ynez mountains. In 1983 there was a torrential downpour, and she couldn’t actually come via water and so she came via plane and drove the seven miles up the very windy road to Ronald Reagan’s ranch,” explained Giller.
The weather even interrupted plans to go horseback riding, but that didn’t stop the Queen and the President from enjoying each other’s company.
“The queen-- when she finally did arrive at the ranch--she looked at the president and said ‘this is such a fun adventure.’ They had a really fun relationship,” added Giller.
Tributes, meanwhile, continue to pour in from around the world in remembrance of Queen Elizabeth II.
“She was a great lady, she’s been through everything you could think from the second world war to the present day,” said Bakersfield resident Victor Pierce. “It’s kind of different hearing king, that there’s a king now.”

PASCO COUNTY, Fla. — Sofia Rzymski and Ali Spears met when they were 10 years old. But just a short time later, Ali was diagnosed with leukemia.
“In 2019, she sadly passed away, but a few years ago, her parents started the Ali Spears Foundation. So through that foundation, we have been able to help other kids like Ali,” said Rzymski.
Through a golf tournament and other fundraisers, the foundation has raised tens of thousands of dollars. But Sofia wanted to do even more.
“Last year marked their 16th birthday, their sweet 16. So Sofia really wanted to do something meaningful to give back instead of having a big party for herself,” said Ali’s mother, Mara.
Instead of a party, Sofia created the Ride for Ali Bike-a-Thon. It's a 16-mile ride on the Pinellas Trail that raised more than $14,000 for pediatric cancer patients.
“It means a lot to me because it kind of brings honor to Ali and it allows the memory to keep living with her and to basically raise money for people liked Ali,” said Rzymski.
“It goes directly to research to eliminate the reoccurrence of exactly what Ali had AML after a bone marrow transplant, and so it’s very near and dear to our hearts, and there are six kids in a trial right now,” said Spears.
“We are hoping that every single year we do this that it keeps getting bigger and bigger,” said Rzymski.
The next “Ride for Ali” event is Feb. 25.

NOTTINGHAM, England — Antony was at his lethal best to inspire Manchester United to a 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Sunday and back up Erik ten Hag’s claim that he has the skills to "kill opponents.”
The $95 million signing also went some way to answering his critics with one of his most impressive performances since signing from Ajax last summer and prompting Ten Hag to draw comparisons with Dutch great Arjen Robben.
“He knows, I know as well, when you are a striker you need end product,” the United manager said. “But already he had quite a lot of end product. He scored in all competitions now, eight goals (in) first year United is not bad and still games to go.
“But he has to do it, I can’t say in every game, but many games if you want to be a top-class player and especially in all the competitions.”
Antony opened the scoring when turning the ball over the line after Anthony Martial’s shot was saved by Keylor Navas in the 32nd minute.
And after Forest’s on-loan Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper pulled off a string of saves to prevent United extending the lead, Antony turned provider to set up Diogo Dalot in the 76th.
The forward has been criticized since arriving at Old Trafford for his lack of goals, inconsistent performances and perceived over-reliance on his left foot.
But Ten Hag, who coached him at Ajax, has repeatedly defended him.
“I know he can also use his right, he has to do it more,” Ten Hag said. “I’ve seen, for instance, Arjen Robben a lot. They say he has only one trick but that one trick was so brilliant no one can stop it.”
In the absence of injured leading scorer Marcus Rashford, United needed someone to come up with the goals against Forest and it was Antony who stepped up with his first in the league since October.
He might have scored more if not for the performance of Navas, but the former Real Madrid ‘keeper could not deny Dalot after Antony’s weaving run set up the United defender to seal the win.
While United’s Champions League pursuit was boosted, Forest’s hopes of avoiding relegation took another blow after failing to move out of the bottom three.
While Forest manager Steve Cooper insisted he was not looking for excuses, he pointed to a potentially pivotal moment when Harry Maguire appeared to handle in the box in the 19th, but was no penalty was awarded.
“I am not going to say it is the absolute reason why we lost the game, but I think it is a definite penalty from Maguire and possibly a second yellow card and could be a game-changer,” Cooper said.
United had the chance to take advantage of top-four rivals Newcastle and Tottenham both losing on Saturday and knew a draw would be enough to move up to third.
Ten Hag suffered a blow before kickoff when Marcel Sabitzer was injured in the warmup and had to be replaced in the starting lineup by Christian Eriksen.
The Austrian joins a growing injury list that includes key players Rashford, Lisandro Martinez, Raphael Varane and Luke Shaw.
Sabitzer’s absence was a particular blow, given he scored twice in the 2-2 draw with Sevilla in the Europa League on Thursday.
But Antony and Bruno Fernandes provided ample goalmouth threat without him.
Fernandes was outstanding, forcing a series of saves from Navas and playing the key pass for Antony’s goal.
Forest had already had the penalty appeal and hit the post through Scott McKenna by the time United took the lead.
Martial won the ball high up the field and then raced onto Fernandes’ through ball. The forward’s shot on the angle was pushed away by Navas, but Antony was there to finish off.
Taiwo Awoniyi had the chance to equalize before the break when Dalot played the ball into his path just inside the box, but his shot flew high over the bar.
United took control in the second half with Navas pushing Fernandes’ shot onto the bar and going on to further deny the Portuguese and Antony as the pressure mounted.
When the second goal came, it was the result of Antony’s tricky footwork and vision to set up Dalot.
Picking up the ball on the right, he beat two players before slipping a pass to meet Dalot’s run. With only Navas to beat, the defender controlled the ball and swept a shot past the ‘keeper. ___

MADRID (AP)Nearly two-dozen people, including players, have been arrested as part of an investigation into match-fixing in lower-division soccer matches in Spain, Andorra and Gibraltar, authorities said Tuesday.
The European Union police agency Europol said those arrested are alleged members of a betting syndicate where ”several footballers are suspected of having used their position to steer the outcome of games in which they participated in.”
Authorities said 30 games are under investigation, with profits from the betting estimated at more than 500,000 euros ($542,000).
The arrests were made in a joint operation by Europol, Interpol and Spanish police.
Europol said the arrests were made in November in several Spanish provinces and followed 21 arrests of members of the same organization in 2021.
Authorities said the organization had two leaders with close connections with players and team staff.
”The intermediaries were responsible for the coordination of the match-fixing schemes, while the corrupted athletes would provide confidential information in order to influence matches,” Europol said. ”This organized crime group also relied on mules who would place sports bets at bookmakers and collect the prize money, and a network of procurers responsible for providing identities for online betting on rigged matches.”

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. (AP) — A sea otter launched into the national spotlight after images of her aggressively wresting surfboards away from surfers off the coast of Santa Cruz, California circulated on social media is building a fan club as she continues to evade capture.
A team of wildlife experts with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the nearby Monterey Bay Aquarium have been trying to capture the 5-year-old animal, known as otter 841, since last week because they say she poses a public safety risk.
They say they want to examine her and relocate her at a zoo or aquarium —as yet to no avail.
She now has a growing fan club, with people showing up every day to get a glimpse of her spending time sunbathing on the rocky shore, diving in the water and chomping down on crabs.
Jessica Fujii, Sea Otter Program Manager at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, said the team has faced some challenges in its pursuit, including bad weather.
“The main issue is more just her ability to evade. Because this has been an ongoing effort, she is wary of those nets,” Fujii said.
Federal and state wildlife officials did not return messages from The Associated Press seeking comment Thursday on their effort to catch otter 841.
The mischievous mammal was made famous by a professional photographer who posted photos and videos on social media that show her aggressively approaching surfers and getting on top of surfboards — on at least one occasion biting and tearing chunks off a board.
“They can’t throw a net over her in the water. They can’t tranquilize her because of fear of her drowning. So they really need to get hands on her,” said the Santa Cruz photographer, Mark Woodward.
The team trying to capture her has used a baited surfboard. She’s gotten on it multiple times in the past few days, according to Woodward. But as soon as a wildlife official towing the surfboard carrying her gets near the team’s boat, she dives off, he said.
The otter’s aggressive behavior is highly unusual, and the reason is unknown, federal wildlife officials said.
“Aggressive behavior in female southern sea otters may be associated with hormonal surges or due to being fed by humans,” the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said in a statement last week.
Otter 841 was born in captivity and released into the wild in June 2020. She is tagged with her number and has a radio transmitter that officials have been monitoring to keep tabs on her.
They said it is not the first time the otter has been aggressive toward humans. She was observed approaching people in late 2021. In May 2022, she was spotted with a pup in the Santa Cruz area, and four months later exhibited similar aggressive behavior.
Meanwhile, her fans want her to be left alone.
“Just leave ‘em alone. Just let ’em have fun. Hasn’t bitten anybody. Roughs up the board. It’s like a dog with a chew, you know?” said Jackie Rundell, a Santa Cruz resident who on Wednesday visited the bay.
Southern sea otters, whose population dwindled to about 50 in 1938, are managed by the Fish and Wildlife Service. They are listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act and are protected under the Marine Mammal Act and California state law.
Now with a population of about 3,000, sea otters play a fundamental role in maintaining healthy coastal ecosystems by preying on sea urchins that can multiply and eat their way through the kelp forests both marine creatures share, wildlife officials said. | https://www.kron4.com/news/california/ap-the-sea-otter-harassing-surfers-off-the-california-coast-eludes-capture-as-her-fan-club-grows/ | 2023-07-20 21:09:49 | 0 | https://www.kron4.com/news/california/ap-the-sea-otter-harassing-surfers-off-the-california-coast-eludes-capture-as-her-fan-club-grows/ |
WASHINGTON (AP) — A coalition of conservative-leaning states is making a last-ditch effort to keep in place a Trump-era public health rule that allows many asylum seekers to be turned away at the southern U.S. border.
Late Monday, the 15 states filed what's known as a motion to intervene — meaning they want to become part of the legal proceedings surrounding the public health rule referred to as Title 42.
The rule, first invoked by Trump in 2020, uses emergency public health authority to allow the United States to keep migrants from seeking asylum at the border, based on the need to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
It's set to end Dec. 21, potentially upending border enforcement as Republicans are about to take control of the House from the Democrats following midterm elections and are planning to make immigration a central part of their agenda.
The states argued that they will suffer “irreparable harm from the impending Termination of Title 42” and that they should be allowed to argue their position well before the Dec. 21 termination date.
Immigrant rights' groups have argued that the use of Title 42 unjustly harms people fleeing persecution and that the pandemic was a pretext used by the Trump administration to curb immigration. A judge on Nov. 15 ruled for the immigrants rights' groups, calling the ban “arbitrary and capricious."
U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan ruled in Washington that enforcement must end immediately for families and single adults. The administration has not used Title 42 with regard to children traveling alone. The judge later granted a request by President Joe Biden's administration to set a Dec. 21 deadline for his order to go into effect, giving the administration five weeks to prepare for the change.
The 15 states argued that states such as Arizona and Texas that border Mexico as well as other states away from the border will face more immigration if use of Title 42 ends. The legal filings lay out a timeline to argue the matter further.
If Sullivan’s ruling stands, it could have a dramatic impact on border enforcement. Migrants have been expelled from the United States more than 2.4 million times since the rule took effect in March 2020.
Sullivan's ruling appears to conflict with another in May by a federal judge in Louisiana that kept the asylum restrictions in place. Before the Louisiana judge's decision, U.S. officials said they were planning for as many as 18,000 migrants a day under the most challenging scenario, a staggering number. In comparison, in May migrants were stopped an average of 7,800 times a day, and that was the highest of Biden’s presidency.
The ban has been unevenly enforced by nationality, falling largely on migrants from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador — in addition to Mexicans — because Mexico allows them to be returned from the United States. Last month, Mexico began accepting Venezuelans who are expelled from the United States under Title 42, causing a sharp drop in Venezuelans seeking asylum at the U.S. border.
The Biden administration initially deferred to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on keeping Title 42 in place, despite sentiment from some in the president's own party as well as activist groups who were skeptical about the public health necessity of the rule. In April, the CDC said it would end the public health order and return to normal border processing of migrants, giving them a chance to request asylum in the U.S. The Louisiana court then stayed that ruling only to have the Washington court last week put an end to the use of Title 42.
The 15 states that filed the motion to intervene are Arizona, Alabama, Alaska, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

Which mosquito killers work the best?
Mosquitoes are most active from dusk to dawn, especially in the late spring, summer and fall or when it’s humid outside. If you enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking or camping during these warmer months, chances are you’ve dealt with mosquitoes before. Since these annoying pests often carry diseases, the best way to enjoy yourself outside without worrying about mosquito bites is with a mosquito killer.
What to consider before you buy a mosquito killer
Type
Here are the most common types of mosquito killers:
- Bug zappers: Often hung from a porch awning or tree, these use ultraviolet light to lure nearby biting insects to metal grids that electrocute them.
- Rackets: These work similarly to bug zappers, but many rackets are handheld for more precise use. They also have ultraviolet light and metal grids.
- Lures: Usually homemade, lures use scents or chemicals, such as carbon dioxide, to attract, trap and kill pests within range.
- Sprays: Similar to other insecticides, sprays are best for killing dozens of mosquitoes. They’re also a good preventative measure since they can kill any eggs. They come in a handheld bottle.
- Foggers: Meant for killing large swarms of biting insects, these machines spray out a liquid insecticide in the form of a fog.
- Dunks: When placed in water, such as a pond, these little round disks release a nontoxic chemical into the water that targets mosquito larvae. They’re similar to mosquito bits.
Range
Most mosquito killers have a range of feet, yards or even acres. Some are designed for close combat, while others work more effectively from a distance or have a more hands-off design.
In general, here are the ranges for each main type:
- Handheld rackets — within arm’s reach
- Hanging zappers — 300 to 1,500 square feet
- Sprays — depends on the nozzle power and how much liquid is in the bottle
- Foggers — around 5,000 to 10,000 square feet, depending on the machine’s size, power cord length and amount of pesticide
- Lures — several hundred feet
- Dunks and bits — up to 100 square feet
Effectiveness
When it comes to effectiveness, there are two things to consider:
- How long does it take to work?
- How long does it last?
Foggers, for example, can kill any mosquitoes within range on contact. Since the chemicals remain on any nearby surfaces, they can continue to kill insects for several hours or days after application.
Bug zappers and rackets start working immediately and continuously, provided they’re connected to a power source or have a working battery. But, while some insects are highly attracted to ultraviolet lights, mosquitoes are less so. This makes them somewhat less effective than other options.
If you’re using something that relies on floral or chemical scents, you need to replace it every few days or weeks for it to remain effective. Otherwise, it will lose its potency and stop attracting insects. Some of these killers also take several weeks to start working.
As for mosquito dunks, these are highly effective in small bodies of still water. They can start working nearly immediately and can last up to 30 days.
Natural vs. chemical
When choosing a mosquito killer, you have two options:
- Natural: These take longer to start working than chemical options, but they’re also usually safer for the environment, children and pets.
- Chemical: These can start working immediately and often last a long time. However, they’re not recommended if you have outdoor pets or kids. Chemical insecticides can also irritate the throat or nose when a person comes into direct contact with them.
Other targeted insects
Mosquito killers target more than mosquitoes. They can also kill other insects, including:
- Bees
- Moths
- Ants
- Flies
- Insect larvae or eggs
Those that use chemicals, such as DEET, can also be harmful to grass or certain plants.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd. (NYSE: ARGO) between February 13, 2018 and August 9, 2022, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important December 20, 2022 lead plaintiff deadline.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Argo Group securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Argo Group class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9346 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 20, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements regarding Argo Group's: (1) ability to set appropriate reserves; (2) changing of its underwriting policies; and (3) writing of policies outside of its "core" business. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
To join the Argo Group class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=9346 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.
No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Heart attack survivor reunites with good Samaritans who saved his life
A heart attack survivor got to thank the heroes who saved him as he was driving home with his wife on a highway in Omaha, Nebraska, returning from the airport.
Sister station KETV spoke to Thomas Watt about his incredible recovery. He could not hold back his emotions as he embraced for the first time the mother, nurse and young teenager who ultimately helped save his life.
Watt said there are simply no words that can describe how grateful he is for what they have done.
The 58-year-old had no pulse when Delanne Porter, Nieves Ferraz and Jonathan Furtado stopped their cars and ran over to help.
Watt had suffered a heart attack and essentially died on the steering wheel of his SUV. Now, he is praising his three guardian angels for their compassion and heroism.
"How do you say thank you to somebody that saved your life? I owe them my life, my family. My family's my world, my 5-year-old daughter's my universe," said Watt.
The emotions are still fresh and lifelong bonds were already forming, including with Furtado, a 17-year-old Eagle Scout, who had just been CPR-certified a week before the ordeal. Furtado's skills, maturity and faith steadied Watt's wife, Angela, who was in shock.
"I got to sit down on a cushion at least. I was trying to think, OK, how can I calm her down? How can I calm her down? She's quite frantic at the moment," said Furtado.
"I feel like the Lord places people in our lives as angels on earth, and that's what I take comfort in," said Angela.
While Watt said he has never asked for help his whole life, it is the help he could not ask for that, in the end, carried him on.
"You know, they don't know me. They're trying to go do their own life and they risk their lives to save mine. I mean, it's just amazing," said Watt.
Watt said he has three more weeks of rehab and that his heart has been cleared of any blockage. Doctors told him that there has been no brain damage because of that lack of oxygen when he had no pulse. | https://www.wgal.com/article/heart-attack-survivor-reunites-with-good-samaritans-who-saved-his-life/43424583 | 2023-03-29 12:24:57 | 0 | https://www.wgal.com/article/heart-attack-survivor-reunites-with-good-samaritans-who-saved-his-life/43424583 |
Growth Attributed to Adoption of Smart NICs and High-Speed Ports
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. , June 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- According to a recently published report by Dell'Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, networks, and data center IT industries, the Ethernet controller and adapter market surpassed $1 billion for the first time in 1Q 2022. Growth was attributed to the adoption of Smart NICs and high-speed ports.
"The Ethernet controller and adapter market was driven by strong Smart NIC and 100 Gbps port shipments," said Baron Fung, Research Director at Dell'Oro Group. "Furthermore, port average selling prices escalated during the quarter as vendors passed higher supply chain costs on to end-users, adding to topline growth. However, vendors continue to contend with supply chain challenges to meet strong and demand. We anticipate the upcoming server platform refresh and cloud expansion cycle to drive the strong demand for Ethernet adapters," added Fung.
Additional highlights from the 1Q 2022 Ethernet Adapter and Smart NIC report include:
- Total Ethernet controller and adapter port shipments grew 2 percent in 1Q 2022.
- 100 and 200 Gbps ports accounted for 38 percent of the revenue in 1Q 2022 from high-end workloads such as accelerated computing.
- Smart NICs open vendors such as Marvell, Napatech, and Nvidia accounted for 30 percent of the revenue in 1Q 2022 and gained share over internally developed solutions by the major cloud service providers such as Amazon and Microsoft.
The Dell'Oro Group Ethernet Adapter and Smart NIC Quarterly Report provide complete, in-depth coverage of the market with tables covering manufacturers' revenue; average selling prices; and unit and port shipments by speed (1 Gbps, 10 Gbps, 25 Gbps, 40 Gbps, 50 Gbps, 100 Gbps, and 200 Gbps) for Ethernet controllers and adapters. The report also covers Smart NIC controllers and adapters. To purchase this report, please contact us at dgsales@delloro.com.

The Powerball jackpot for Monday’s lottery drawing has jumped to an estimated $324 million, with a cash option of $167.3 million.
The drawing will be held at 10:59 p.m. and be televised on WABC-7 in New York City and Fox 29 in Philadelphia.
No one across the country won Saturday’s $310.1 million Powerball jackpot. There were also no second-prize, $1 million tickets sold.
In New Jersey, a third-prize ticket matching four numbers plus the Powerball was sold at J & M Grocery on 16th Avenue in Newark, lottery officials said. It’s worth $150,000 instead of the standard $50,000 because the winner spent an extra $1 on the Power Play option.
Saturday’s winning numbers were: 21, 32, 42, 46 and 50. The Powerball drawn was 4 with a Power Play of 3X.
In addition, no one won the secondary $10 million Double Play drawing on Saturday. There were also no second-prize, $500,000 winners. The winning numbers were: 30, 45, 55, 67 and 69. The Double Play number drawn was 23.
No one has won the top prize since someone who bought a ticket in Ohio hit the $252.6 million jackpot on April 19, officials said.
The odds of hitting the Powerball jackpot are 292,201,388 to 1. A player who buys a $2 ticket has about a 1 in 11,688,053 chance to match five numbers and win at least $1 million, while the odds are 913,129 to 1 to win a third prize of at least $50,000.
Powerball drawings are held each Monday, Wednesday and Saturday in 45 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Tuesday’s Mega Millions jackpot is worth an estimated $260 million, with a cash option of $134.3 million.

CHICAGO — University of Chicago and Frace’s flagship science organization Wednesday night signed an agreement to establish a new international research center in Hyde Park that will bring together the world’s leading scientists.
IRC Discovery is only the fourth French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) center in the world and second in the U.S.
Paul Alleviates, the president of the University of Chicago and the French president, Emmanuel Macron met at the French Embassy in Washington D.C. to sign the agreement to expand partnership programs and broaden the scope of IRC Discovery.
According to the University of Chicago, this initiative will build upon the longstanding global science being studied in the Chicagoland area and will further strengthen the researcher relations of the U.S. and France through a variety of subjects.
“This new partnership is a great example of peer institutions committing their resources to reduce barriers to effective collaboration and accelerate solutions to global issues,” said Paul Alivisatos, president of UChicago. | https://wgntv.com/news/chicago-news/hyde-park-to-hold-2nd-french-research-center-in-u-s-and-4th-in-the-world/ | 2022-12-01 14:53:17 | 0 | https://wgntv.com/news/chicago-news/hyde-park-to-hold-2nd-french-research-center-in-u-s-and-4th-in-the-world/ |

"Shavetopia" will allow Roblox users to purchase facial hairstyles for their online avatars this fall
STAMFORD, Conn., Oct. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Philips Norelco recently launched "Shavetopia" – an interactive hub on Roblox that gives users the ability to choose from a variety of avatar facial hairstyles. This venture on Roblox, a global platform connecting over 50 million people daily through shared immersive experiences, helps extend the men's grooming brand and important social causes it supports to the metaverse.
Through November 30th, 2022, everyone – regardless of gender identity or ability to grow a moustache – is encouraged to participate in Movember virtually by purchasing one of Movember's facial hairstyles in the Avatar Marketplace for their Roblox avatar. Users can view and try on facial hairstyles in Shavetopia before purchasing for their avatars.
"Shavetopia" provides a 3D online space for Roblox visitors to try virtual hairstyles, play mini-games and spend time with friends and family as they try out new looks to embrace a new sense of virtual identity. Each game will feature unique Philips Norelco power-ups, which provide the opportunity for Roblox community members to wear their selected facial hairstyles and gain unique bonuses. Shavetopia has portals to three fan favorite experiences on Roblox: Retail Tycoon 2, Emergency Response: Liberty County, and Tower Defense Simulator.
"With our purpose of improving people's lives at the forefront of everything we do, Philips is taking our philanthropic efforts into exciting new territory by applying that purpose to self-expression and confidence in both the real world and virtual worlds," said Rafael Viestel da Silva, Philips Grooming and Beauty Marketing Director. "We're excited to extend our partnership with Movember to Roblox, with shared goals of empowerment and working together for social good."
Individual expression and appearance are critical pieces of how we express ourselves, and Philips Norelco wants to empower people to express their true selves, both in the physical and digital worlds. Driven by this purpose, is an extension of the partnership with Movember, which began in 2021 to support important men's health causes.
Movember aims to support men's mental and physical health through research, community outreach and initiatives such as encouraging guys to grow their Mo each November to raise awareness. Any proceeds generated by purchases of facial hairstyles in Shavetopia will go directly to bolster Movember's work in supporting mental health and suicide prevention, as well as prostate and testicular cancer awareness. In addition to partnering with Movember, Philips Norelco is also partnering with Dr. Jake Taylor, Urologic Oncology Fellow, University of Southwestern Texas Medical Center, to serve as an expert voice in the men's health space.
"It's so important for men to take an active role in both their physical and mental health," said Dr. Jake Taylor. "Even just starting your day with a routine that boosts your confidence, like shaving, can make a big difference for your mental health. That's why I'm thrilled to partner with an organization like Philips Norelco, who is actively committed to supporting both the physical and mental health for men."
"We're thrilled to join forces with Philips Norelco for the second consecutive year. We believe that Shavetopia will help raise awareness for men's health issues among new audiences," said Mark Hedstrom, Movember US Country Director. "These virtual facial hairstyles enable more people, regardless of gender or ability to grow facial hair, to show their support for Movember in ways we never thought possible."
To participate, create an account on Roblox and check out Shavetopia in support of Movember's efforts to improve men's health this fall. You can also update your facial hairstyle with Philips Norelco OneBlade, the all-in-one tool that can trim, edge and shave any length of hair, available for purchase at Philips.com and major retailers.
In addition to creating Shavetopia, Philips Norelco is proud to donate $400,000 to the Movember Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization committed to changing the face of men's health. In addition, for every Philips Norelco & OneBlade handle sold in CVS and Walmart stores in the United States between October 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022, Philips will donate $0.50, up to $100,000, for a maximum total donation of $500,000.

HOOVER, Ala — Police in Alabama searched Friday for a 25-year-old woman who vanished after telling a family member that she was stopping to check on a child she saw walking on the side of an interstate highway.
Lt. Daniel Lowe said the family member on the phone with Russell lost contact with her even though the line remained open. He said a single witness reported possibly seeing a gray vehicle and a man standing outside of Carlee’s vehicle, but they have no additional information.
Police asked people to report any information they might have about her disappearance.
“No piece of information is too small in this investigation,” Lowe told reporters Friday.
Lowe said police are pursing all possibilities in the disappearance. ”We’re certainly leaving nothing off the table,” he said when asked if investigators believe she was abducted.
Family members organized a search in the area.
“We’re just gonna scour the earth,” Russell’s dad, Carlos Russell, told WVTM. “There’s no stopping us.”
Talitha Russell told al.com that her daughter was headed home after leaving work and stopping to get food. She was on the phone with her brother’s girlfriend when she said she saw a child on the roadside.
“My son’s girlfriend heard her asking the child, ‘Are you Ok?’ She never heard the child say anything but then she heard our daughter scream,’’ Talitha Russell said. “From there, all you hear on her phone is background noise from the interstate.”
Police said an anonymous donor offered a $20,000 reward for Russell’s safe return and another $5,000 reward is available through Crime Stoppers.

ISLAMABAD (AP) — The Pakistani Taliban said Thursday they have indefinitely extended a cease-fire with the government in Islamabad, following two days of talks with a delegation of Pakistani tribal elders that were hosted by the Afghan Taliban.
According to Mohammad Khurasani, a spokesman for the outlawed Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan group or TTP, the decision was made after “substantial progress” in the talks with the 50-member team of elders.
He did not elaborate and there was no immediate confirmation from the Pakistani government about the extension of the truce.
The Pakistani Taliban are a separate group but allied with the Afghan Taliban, who seized power in their country last August as the U.S. and NATO troops were in the final stages of their pullout from Afghanistan.
The TTP has waged an insurgency in Pakistan over the past 14 years, fighting for stricter enforcement of Islamic laws in the country, the release of their members who are in government custody and a reduction of Pakistani military presence in the country’s former tribal regions.
Khurasani, the TTP spokesman, said the talks in Kabul would continue in the coming days. There was no statement from the Afghan Taliban, who in the past have only said they offer neutral ground for the talks.
The Taliban in Afghanistan have also been encouraging the new government in Pakistan to reach a peace agreement with the Pakistani Taliban. The previous truce between the two sides expired on May 30. So far, none of the cease-fires have paved the way for more permanent peace.
The Pakistani Taliban have for years used Afghanistan’s rugged border regions for hideouts and for staging cross-border attacks into Pakistan and have now been emboldened by the return to power of the Afghan Taliban.
The group wants Pakistani government forces pull out of former tribal regions of the northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, release all the TTP fighters in government custody and revoke all the legal cases against them.
The government in Islamabad, on the other hand, wants the Pakistani Taliban disbanded and for the insurgents to accept Pakistan’s constitution and sever all their ties with the Islamic State group, another Sunni militant group with a regional affiliate that is active in both Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The Pakistani tribal elders were sent to Kabul as intermediaries because under Pakistan’s constitution, the government cannot negotiate — at least not directly — with those waging an insurgency against it. | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/pakistani-taliban-extend-truce-with-government-in-islamabad/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | 2022-06-02 20:29:33 | 0 | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/pakistani-taliban-extend-truce-with-government-in-islamabad/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all |
