The state branch of the Strata Community Association says the government should consider making pet bonds a provision in changes to the Residential Tenancy Act to allow tenants to keep pets in their rentals. Loginor signup to continue reading. Legislation allowing tenants to keep pets at rental properties without the owner's consent was tabled in state parliament last month. Property owners will be allowed to object to pet ownership, but they must do so through the Tasmanian Civil and Administrative Tribunal. Tenants would be liable to pay for any damage to the property that is not general wear and tear, and they would not have to stump up extra money for a pet bond. Strata Community Association state president Joshua Jones said the organisation believed a clause to impose pet bonds on tenants should be inserted into the bill and that a body corporate of a multiunit property should be able to determine the suitability of pets for particular rentals. He said a body corporate should be able to request the removal of pets, and demand that they were kept within a secure yard or on a lead when on common property. Land Titles Office recorder of titles Robert Manning said the bill, as written, presented a conflict with the Strata Titles Act model bylaw, which stipulated that a property owner must not keep a pet on a lot without the body corporate's written approval. "In general, a lot owner is not obliged to obtain body corporate approval to enter into a lease," he said. "Under the proposal, however, a tenant's right to have a pet would entail the lot owner's breach of model bylaw 7.". Additionally, Mr Manning said the body corporate or others living on the lot would not be aware that pets may be moving into a certain property until it happens. Shelter Tas chief executive Pattie Chugg said consultation with its members showed support for body corporates retaining bylaws regarding pets and for tenants complying with these bylaws.

The state branch of the Strata Community Association suggests including pet bonds in the changes to the Residential Tenancy Act to allow tenants to have pets in rentals. Property owners can object through the Tasmanian Civil and Administrative Tribunal, and tenants are responsible for any property damage. The bill has raised concerns for conflicts with existing laws regarding keeping pets in rental properties.

The president, in a bid to listen to Kenyans, said he would be open to an X space where he would answer all questions regarding his leadership and the wave of protests that had spiralled out of control. Shortly after a State of the Nation address at State House, Ruto swiftly moved to X where he was supposed to host the conversation from 2pm on Friday. As expected, many Kenyans wanted to be part of this historic moment but technical issues locked thousands who reported the Could not fetch Space error. X bigwig Osama Otero hosted the Space and the president joined as the conversation kicked off some minutes to 3pm.

The conversation revolved around police brutality, taxes, false promises, debt burden, abductions and lavish living by some leaders and Ruto explained himself to the nation. At the end of the discussion, he took time to pray for the country and empathised with those who had lost their lives during the protests. Here is Ruto s prayer for the nation:.

The Hamas terrorist organization said on Wednesday night that it has sent new "ideas" to Qatari mediators aimed at ending the war in Gaza. The group said that its leader, Ismail Haniyeh, held talks with the Qatari and Egyptian mediators on the issue. The group further said that Haniyeh also communicated with Turkish officials about the latest developments and that Hamas is viewing the ongoing talks in a "positive spirit.". "We exchanged some ideas with the mediator brothers with the aim of stopping the aggression against our Palestinian people," said the Hamas statement quoted byAFP. Earlier on Wednesday, the Prime Minister's Office, on behalf of the Mossad,announced that the mediatorshave conveyed to the negotiating team Hamas' remarks on the outline of the hostage deal. "Israel is evaluating the remarks and will convey its reply to the mediators," the statement said. A senior defense official said that "Hamas continues to insist on a clause in the deal that would prevent Israel from returning to fight after the first stage of the deal, which is not acceptable to Israel.". The official added that "there are additional differences which were not yet bridged," and emphasized that "Israel will continue negotiations while continuing the military and diplomatic pressure to bring to the release of all 120 hostages, living and dead as one.". US President Joe Biden two months agooutlined a threephase processfor a ceasefire and hostage release deal. The first phase of Biden s threephase process, which he outlined in a speech last month, would last for six weeks and would include a full and complete ceasefire, withdrawal of Israeli forces from all populated areas of Gaza, and the release of a number of hostages, including women, the elderly, and the wounded, in exchange for the release of hundreds of Palestinian Arab prisoners. Phase two would see the release of all remaining living hostages, while phase three would encompass "a major reconstruction plan for Gaza," as well as the repatriation of the remains of deceased hostages to their families. . Hamas latergave its official responseto Biden s proposal, with a senior Israeli official saying the terrorist organization rejected Biden s proposal. The terrorist organizationlater claimedthat it was Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who was opposed to Biden s proposal, citing comments made by Netanyahu in an interview withChannel 14, in which he said that he is prepared to advance such a deal, but not at the cost of stopping the war. .

Hamas sent new ideas to Qatari mediators to end the war in Gaza. They are in talks with Egypt and Turkey, viewing negotiations positively. Israel is evaluating Hamas' remarks on a hostage deal, but there are disagreements. US President Joe Biden proposed a three-phase plan for a ceasefire and hostage release deal, but Hamas rejected it while accusing Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu of opposition.

News. Authors:. Experts urge enhanced monitoring as avian influenza spreads beyond birds; emergency abortion access still in legal limbo; leaders call for federal probe into potential misuse of health insurance subsidies. Leading disease experts are raising alarms over inadequate surveillance of a new H5N1 avian flu subtype, which has now spread to dairy herds and various mammals in the US, potentially edging closer to human transmission,according to Reuters. Recent studies indicate that the virus likely spreads through contaminated milking equipment rather than respiratory droplets, suggesting targeted containment strategies could be effective,reportsThe New York Times.The rapid spread among cows and findings of virus viability on milking equipment highlight the urgency for enhanced monitoring and coordination between animal and human health agencies to prevent another pandemic. . The Supreme Court s dismissal of Idaho s challenge to a federal emergency care law provides temporary relief for physicians and patients, allowing emergency abortions despite state restrictions while the case continues in the US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit,according toThe Hill.The case involves the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act EMTALA, which mandates emergency care regardless of payment ability, with the Biden administration arguing it preempts state abortion bans in emergencies. However, the decision leaves unresolved questions about whether EMTALA specifically permits emergency abortions, leading to ongoing uncertainty for doctors and patients in states with restrictive abortion laws, as differing legal interpretations continue to create confusion and potential legal risks for health care providers. . House Republican leaders have requested federal investigations into potential fraudulent enrollments in the Affordable Care Act ACA health plans, citing reports that millions of Americans may be improperly benefiting from federal insurance subsidies,according toThe Washington Post.The call for a probe comes amid concerns that insurance brokers are engaging in unscrupulous practices to enroll customers into ACA plans without their knowledge or consent. Democrats and Republicans alike have voiced concerns over the issue, although opinions differ on the extent of the problem and its implications for the ACA's future.

Seoul: North Korea has switched the transmission of state TV broadcasts to a Russian satellite from a Chinese one, South Korea's unification ministry said on Monday, making the monitoring of such broadcasts a challenge for the South's government agencies and media. Signals from North Korea's Korean Central Television were carried by a Russian satellite, Express 103, from June 29 instead of the ChinaSat 12 satellite, a South Korean satellite dish service provider told Reuters. It declined to be named due to the sensitivity of the issue. The satellite change follows Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to North Korea in June, during which he met North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and signed a treaty to deepen cooperation in all areas including a mutual defence pledge. While it remains possible to watch North Korean TV online, the quality may be delayed or of low quality. South Korean government agencies and media monitor North Korean state media as a limited source of information from inside the reclusive state, despite its highly politicised and choreographed content. "North Korea stopped using an existing Chinese satellite and began transmitting broadcasts through a Russian satellite, and reception of satellite broadcasts is being restricted in some areas on our side," a unification ministry official said, adding the ministry was looking to resolve the technical issue. Authorised entities in the South need access to satellite service to watch North Korean broadcasts, and the general public is banned from accessing the North's media. Reuters has been unable to receive North Korean TV signals since Monday morning. While Russia and North Korea have made dramatic overtures showcasing deepening ties and vowed to resist the USled West, China has avoided any trilateral arrangement that might complicate its relations with other countries.

North Korea shifts state TV broadcasts to a Russian satellite from a Chinese one, causing monitoring challenges for South Korea. The change came after Putin's visit and mutual defense pact signing with Kim Jong Un. South Korean agencies monitor North Korean media for limited insights. Access to satellite service is crucial for authorized entities in the South to watch broadcasts. China has avoided complicating relationships with other countries amidst Russia and North Korea's growing ties.

"Where will we go?" said Tamer, a 55yearold businessman, who has been displaced six times since Oct. 7. The Israeli military said its forces had struck areas in Khan Younis from where around 20 rockets had been fired on Monday. Targets included weapon storage facilities and operational centres, it added. It said measures were taken before the strikes to ensure civilians were unharmed by enabling them to evacuate from the area, referring to the evacuation orders. The military accused Hamas of using civilian infrastructure and the wider population as human shields. The Islamist group denies that. Islamic Jihad, an allied group of Hamas, took credit for firing the rockets, which it said came in response to "the crimes of the Zionist enemy against our Palestinian people". The war in Gaza began when Hamasled fighters burst into southern Israel on Oct. 7, killed 1,200 people and took around 250 hostages, including civilians and soldiers, back into Gaza, according to Israeli tallies. The offensive launched by Israel in retaliation has killed nearly 38,000 people, according to the Gaza health ministry, and has left the heavily builtup coastal enclave in ruins. The Gaza health ministry does not distinguish between combatants and noncombatants, but officials say most of the dead are civilians. Israel says 317 of its soldiers have been killed in Gaza and that at least a third of the Palestinian dead are fighters. ENDGAME IN RAFAH. Within the areas subject to evacuation orders was the European Gaza Hospital, which serves both Khan Younis and Rafah, and medical officials had to evacuate patients and families who had taken shelter in the facility, witnesses and medics said. Some residents headed west towards the Mawasi area by the beach, which is designated as a humanitarian area but is overcrowded by displaced families. Some slept in the street as they could not find shelter. Israel has signalled that its operation in Rafah, in southern Gaza near the border with Egypt, that was meant to stamp out Hamas in its final redoubt would soon be concluded. After the intense phase of the war is over, its forces will focus on smallerscale operations meant to stop Hamas from regrouping, officials say. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel was nearing its goal of destroying the military capabilities of Hamas, which has governed Gaza since 2007. Less intense operations would continue, he said. "We are advancing to the end of the phase of eliminating the terrorist army of Hamas, and there will be a continuation to strike its remnants," Netanyahu said. Hamas and Islamic Jihad continue to stage attacks against Israeli forces operating inside Gaza and fire rockets from time to time into Israel in a show of defiance. Hamas says Netanyahu has failed to achieve the goals of the war and the group is ready to fight for years. Arab mediators' efforts to secure a ceasefire, backed by the United States, have stalled. Hamas says any deal must end the war and bring a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. Israel says it will accept only temporary pauses in the fighting until Hamas is eradicated.

On this episode of Talking Biotech, University of Florida researchers Kevin Folta and Brady Holmer tackle two pressing questions in science: communication and sleep. Public understanding of science is essential to a properly functioning society. But with so much misinformation proliferating through social media, what can academics do to help consumers develop a better grasp of complex scientific topics? Folta and Holmer summarize their approaches to promoting science literacy among the public, and explain why other researchers should join them. Sleep and DNA damage. Everyone knows that miserable feeling of waking up after a night of poor sleep. Along with side effects like worsening heart function andslowing metabolism, that feeling of lethargy signals how important a good night s rest is to our survival. Now science is revealing just how deep the connection between human health and sleep goes, showing that sleep deprivation can actually damage our DNA. With the help of Zebra fish,Professor Lior Appelbaumand his team at BarIlan University in Israel have shown that sleep is an essential state in which neuronal activity is put on hold and cells repair their genetic material. Applebaum joins Folta and Holmer to discuss how his research helps fill some of the gaps in our knowledge of sleep. KevinM.

The Head of the Political Science Department at the University of Ghana, Prof Alidu Seidu says the New Patriotic Party NPP will struggle to project its running mate Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh to voters who are not part of their party. There's a perception that the former Education Minister is arrogant, and this has been compounded by a recent utterance he made about the country's power challenges when some citizens were requesting a loadshedding timetable. Speaking on JoyNews' Upfront with Raymond Acquah, the Political Scientist wondered if the party could effectively execute the task of projecting him differently within the limited time frame. Read Also:NAPO is competent, someone even said he can manage a desert Nana B. We have just six months to elections. Yes, you can convince the NPP supporters that this is not how Napo is. Few people have worked with Napo and they know that these are perceptions and that Napo is not like that. . But we the people outside NPP or even people within the party who haven t fraternised with him, how long will it take them to change their perception? he quizzed. He continued And a lot of people have been referring to the recent 'dumsor' which a lot of Ghanaians were angered. Because 'dumsor' has affected their work, businesses, and personal life. . But the National Organiser of the NPP and a confidante of the NPP running mate, Henry Nana Boakye, says in the coming days the party will roll out its strategy to counter all the negative issues raised about Dr Prempeh. I have worked closely with him, so for me, I see a lot of confidence in him. I see somebody who is committed and dedicated to his work, I see that he has the energy to always turn things around. As a political party, the ticket must be sold to Ghanaians and that is what we are going to do, he stated. The Multimedia Group. Advertise With Us. Contact Us. Terms of Use. Privacy Policy.

The Delhi government s FactFinding Committee constituted to probe illegal felling of trees by the Delhi Development Authority issued a notice to senior officers of the DDA, Forest Department and the Delhi Police Sunday. The panel formed on Saturday comprises Delhi Ministers Atishi, Saurabh Bharadwaj and Imran Hussain Saturday. The Supreme Court, which is hearing the case, had issued notice to the GNCTD to file an affidavit before July 11. The next hearing is on July 12. Stating that a coverup was on despite its notice on a plea seeking contempt proceedings against DDA, the SC had said Wednesday that DDA VC must come clean on whether LG VK Saxena had issued directions to cut trees in the Ridge area of the Capital for widening an approach road to an upcoming hospital for Central paramilitary forces. The committee has directed the Principal Secretary of the Environment and Forest Department; DDA Vice Chairman; Principal Commissioner, Land Development and Land Management, DDA; Commissioner Housing DDA; DCP South Delhi; SHO of the area concerned; and other senior officials to be present on Monday for a meeting. As per the members, the panel was formed to probe on whose directions the DDA had illegally cut 1,100 trees in the protected Ridge and to ascertain the purpose of the LG s visit there on February 3.

Professional treatments have longerlasting effects, but natural remedies can be used for upkeep. Consult a dentist before starting any new whitening routine to protect tooth enamel.

Menu. LEXINGTON, Ky. LEX 18 In 45 years of rescuing animals, Anita Spreitzer described the past few months as the worst she's ever seen. We've moved, in the last month and a half, close to 175 dogs into safe havens. It's unheard of. I've never seen something like this in my lifetime," Spreitzer said. Spreitzer is the rescue coordinator with Paws 4 the Cause animal shelter. Just in the last couple weeks, she's experienced many examples of gross negligence toward our furry friends. We got a phone call yesterday from some of the rescue coordinators in Pulaski County. Two dogs were found wandering around as strays," Spreitzer said. "Their coats are so matted it s all the way down to the skin. What happens is those mats start to pull and get tight and when they get wet like out in the rain, they just get tighter. . That barely scratches the surface. They were living in an apartment with black mold, dirt and filth, in their own urine. They have urine scorched stains on them," Spreitzer said. "The building has been condemned because there was over three feet of sewage inside the apartment building and the basement. . All of the dogs are being cared for now, but it comes at a cost. Spreitzer said it'll cost thousands of dollars to rehab all the pups, much of which comes from donations. These examples run right in line with the newly released Crime in Kentucky report. According to state data, there was a 35 increase in animal cruelty cases in 2023. Spreitzer lives through that trend every day and is now adamantly calling for action from Kentucky lawmakers to better protect our pets. Why can t the laws be changed in Kentucky like the rest of the states for the crimes to actually stick and not only get a slap on the hand?". "People need to realize and stand up for the voiceless and fight for them. Something has to give and something has to change. . Report a typo

Anita Spreitzer, from Paws 4 the Cause animal shelter, describes a surge in rescued dogs due to extreme neglect. Cases include severely matted coats, living in filth and urine, and even exposure to black mold. The shelter is facing significant costs to rehabilitate these dogs. Kentucky saw a 35% increase in animal cruelty cases in 2023, prompting calls for stronger laws to protect pets.

On February 17, the restriction was put into effect based on information provided by intelligence services. The hostile elements operating on X have nefarious intentions to create an environment of chaos and instability, with the ultimate goal of destabilizing the country and plunging it into some form of anarchy, the ministry stated in its reply, which was submitted to the Sindh High Court SHC. It further stated that there is a serious threat to the peace and security of the nation from certain segments of society who are using platform X to spread misinformation and incite violence as part of a defamatory campaign against state institutions. . The interior ministry supports the ban on X in a statement before the SHC, claiming that hostile elements are exploiting social media platforms to incite violence, create chaos. . According to the government, the prohibition on X is therefore an essential step in stifling these forces operations and stopping them from realizing their harmful goals. According to the government, the goal of the measure was to guarantee social media platforms are used responsibly and in compliance with local regulations. Pakistani citizens are motivated to voice their opinions within legal boundaries and with consideration for social customs, without utilizing hate speech, inciting acts of violence, or spreading misleading information, the ministry stated. It noted that the platform had disregarded the federal government s concerns and lawful directives. It said that platform X had not signed any memorandums of understanding MoUs or agreements to follow local laws, nor was it registered in the nation. Being a foreign entity, it must abide by all national regulations, including following official government orders. However, the ministry noted that the platform had not established any legal presence or engaged in substantive cooperation with the authorities. The Ministry of Interior reaffirms its dedication to protecting the rights of Pakistani citizens and maintaining the country s security and stability. The ministry declared that the prohibition on X is an essential step in this approach and that it is being implemented with respect for the rule of law and democratic governance norms. The interior ministry announced that it had banned TikTok due to objectionable content, alluding to the previous restrictions on the app. Following the platform s signature of an agreement and pledge to abide by national laws, the ban was lifted. The ministry also questioned the petition s maintainability in the filing, claiming that since no fundamental rights have been violated, the petitioners lack standing to file the petitions. Moreover, the ministry said that the petitioners had not used up all of their remedies before coming to the SHC. For the sake of national interest and to prevent irreparable loss to national interest, it begged the court to reject the petition. Email address:. .

No one knew when the wire fell on the floor. According to Anjali Gedam, a class 7 student, who first spotted Yashasvi, said, As soon as I entered the washroom, I saw her on the floor with froth oozing out of her mouth. I and other students took her out and informed the lady who cooks food. Sometime later Bhave Sir also arrived. . Meanwhile Nilesh Ramteke, Sarpanch of Puyar GP, blamed Headmaster and the School committee for the death and demanded action against them.

By Pat BrysonToday my friends in Canada celebrate Canada Day. We in the U.S. are gearing up for our July 4th celebration. I hope it s a big one this year! I plan to gather with friends around a pool to eat, drink, and thank God for life, liberty, and happiness. My flags are decorating my front lawn. Old Glory will be seen waving in the breeze across our nation. Or at least I hope so. No matter the warts our country may have, I believe it to be a beacon of light for the world. If our young people would have the chance to experience parts of the world where socialism or communism has prevailed, they would understand how blessed they are to live here. And I believe we in broadcast play an integral part in the life of our country. If you will forgive my crawling onto my soapbox for a few minutes, I would like to share my deeply held belief about what we as advertising salespeople do. Why our job is SO important. I once lost a very good young salesperson because his fatherinlaw wanted him to get a real job. Well, what we do IS a real job. It s a vital job. The Soviet Bloc had only recently disintegrated, and these broadcasters had private licenses for the first time. They were relatively free to broadcast what they wanted although if it contained anything critical to the government thugs were likely to show up and smash equipment. Now they had to earn revenue to support their stations. That s where I came in. I was supposed to teach them how to sell advertising. The problem was their economic system was still evolving after 70 years of Soviet rule. Do you know there was no Russian word for marketing ? Why did they need one? In a Communist system, everything is decided by the government. And, having experienced the results of this, the government didn t make wise decisions. I came back to the US and literally kissed the ground. And I realized what a vital role we play. In a capitalistic system, someone has an idea for a product or service, builds it, advertises it, sells it, builds more product, advertises it, sells it, etc. The wheels of commerce turn: jobs are created. And the grease on the wheels of commerce is advertising! It s what we do! It s delivering a message from a business to a group of consumers through our vehicles: Radio, TV, billboards, digital. Businesses inviting customers into their stores partially determine how our economy flourishes. Our clients need our help, guidance, and expertise. This 4th of July, as you celebrate with family and friends, say a prayer of thanks that you work in an industry that plays a vital part in the wellbeing and future of our great country and the world. That s worth setting off a few fireworks!.

A delegation led by Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar on Tuesday submitted a proposal to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to rename Ramanagara district as Bengaluru South district. Ramanagara district has five taluks Ramanagara, Channapatna, Magadi, Kanakapura and Harohalli. Renaming Ramanagara as Bengaluru South district will help the talukas benefit from the international reputation enjoyed by Bengaluru, Shivakumar said in the memorandum. Signatories of the petition included Ramalinga Reddy, Transport and Ramanagar districtincharge minister, Iqbal Hussain, Ramanagar MLA, D K Suresh, former MP, MLCs Puttanna, S Ravi and Sudham Das, among others. Ramanagar is among the relatively new districts of the state and was formed in 2007. The people of Doddaballapur, Devanahalli, Hoskote, Kanakapura, Ramanagara, Channapatna, Magadi are all originally Bangaloreans. Ramanagara and Bengaluru rural districts were carved out from Bengaluru urban for administrative ease, he said. Ramanagara needs to be renamed keeping Ramanagara as the district headquarters, he added. Renaming would help bring industries to the district and the land valuation would go up as well. Bengaluru has scope to grow only towards Ramanagara and Tumkur as it hasTamil NaduandAndhra Pradeshon the other sides, Shivakumar told reporters after submitting the memorandum. The JDS, meanwhile, has criticised the proposal alleging that it was an appeasement tactic apart from turning the district into a haven for realestate barons. The proposal has only exposed the secret behind changing Ramanagara s name to woo some people, JDS youth wing president Nikhil Kumaraswamy said. The dark side of this proposal is to turn the district into a haven for realestate dealers. Another facet of this is appeasement, he added. The attempt to rename it is to destroy the heritage of Ramanagara district, he alleged. Director Mehul Kumar shared how actors Raaj Kumar and Nana Patekar were cautious about working together due to their famous tempers. Despite this, Mehul managed to convince Nana to star in the film Tirangaa, after being turned down by Rajinikanth and Naseeruddin Shah.

Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar proposed renaming Ramanagara district as Bengaluru South to leverage Bengaluru's reputation. This move aims to attract industries, increase land valuation, and facilitate growth towards Ramanagara and Tumkur. However, JDS criticized the proposal, claiming it is an appeasement tactic and could benefit real estate developers.

RANDOLPH COUNTY, Ark. KAIT We are all keeping an eye on Hurricane Beryl as it is currently ripping through the Caribbean and on its way to the Gulf of Mexico. Jamaica is next in its path. Ronnie and Bridget Palmer left Region 8 for Jamaica on June 26 to go celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary, and it was their first trip to the country. It s been great, we came here we exchanged new wedding rings, and did a little ceremony on the beach, just the two of us. It was very romantic, very quiet, just us, and it was great. We ve enjoyed ourselves a lot, Bridget Palmer said. Palmer said that until this point the weather was great and everything was beautiful, then the hurricane warnings came in. The calm before the storm, when they left seven days ago, they never thought that they would be in the circumstances that they are in now. It has been amazing, the weather s been beautiful, it s only rained once, the weather s been great until two days ago when they started talking about a hurricane coming, B. Palmer said, There s been no flights out. We ve tried, starting yesterday to change our plans and get a flight out and there s been no flights out, we are stuck here. . They are taking precautions and getting ready for the storm. Since their resort is right on the beach, they are moving to a room that is more inland and can better protect themselves. I m kind of trying not to panic, trying to stay calm, my husband is a lot calmer than I am. So he s good. Hurricane Beryl is expected to make landfall in Jamaica later tonight as a Category 4 storm, and Palmer said that they are not the only ones from the Region 8 area stuck in its path. Our thoughts go to them and everyone impacted by Hurricane Beryl. Copyright 2024 KAIT. All rights reserved.

News Flash. LONDON, July 5, 2024 BSSAFP Britain's main opposition Labour party looks set for a landslide election win, exit polls indicated on Thursday, with Keir Starmer replacing Rishi Sunak as prime minister, ending 14 years of Conservative rule.The survey for UK broadcasters suggested centreleft Labour would win 410 seats in the 650seat House of Commons, putting it back in power for the first time since 2010, with a 170seat majority.Sunak's Tories would only get 131 a record low with the rightwing vote apparently spliced by Nigel Farage's antiimmigration Reform UK party, which could bag 13 seats.In another boost for the centrists, the smaller opposition Liberal Democrats would get 61 seats, ousting the Scottish National Party on 10 as the third biggest party.The projected overall result bucks a rightward trend among Britain's closest Western allies, with the farright in France eyeing power and Donald Trump looking set for a return in the United States.British newspapers all focused on Labour's impending return to power for the first time since the days of Gordon Brown in 2010. "Keir We Go," headlined the Laboursupporting Daily Mirror. "Britain sees red," said The Sun, the influential Rupert Murdoch tabloid which swung behind Labour for the first time since 2005.Both Starmer and Sunak thanked activists for their work and support during the election campaign but senior Labour figures refrained from any premature celebrations. 'Brighter future' Counting of ballots from some 40,000 polling stations across the country stretches into the night, with official results expected into Friday morning.The first to declare, just over an hour after polls closed at 2100 GMT, was Houghton and Sunderland South, in northeast England, where Labour's Bridget Phillipson was returned as MP.Phillipson, certain to become education secretary, said Britons seemed to have chosen a "brighter future". "After 14 years the British people have voted change.. Labour will honour the trust that you have placed in us," she told supporters to applause.Under Britain's firstpastthepost electoral system, a party needs 326 seats to win an overall majority in parliament.The leader of the winning party is expected to meet head of state King Charles III on Friday morning, who will ask the leader of the largest party to form a government.Ministerial appointments will follow soon after an acceptance speech in Downing Street.The Tories worst previous election result is 156 seats in 1906, and former leader William Hague told Times Radio the projections would be "a catastrophic result in historic terms".But Tim Bale, politics professor at Queen Mary, University of London, said it was "not as catastrophic as some were predicting" and the Tories would now need to decide how best to fight back.Farage, aiming to become an MP at the eighth time of asking, has made no secret of his aim to take over the Tories and claimed Reform's results were proof that "the revolt against the establishment is underway". Todo list Labour's resurgence is a stunning turnaround from five years ago, when hardleft former leader Jeremy Corbyn took the party to its worst defeat since 1935 in an election dominated by Brexit.Starmer, 61, took over in early 2020, and set about moving the party back to the centre, making it a more electable proposition and purging infighting and antiSemitism that lost it support.Opinion polls have put Labour consistently 20 points ahead of the Tories for almost the past two years, giving an air of inevitability about a Labour win the first since Tony Blair in 2005.Starmer the workingclass son of a toolmaker and a nurse has promised "a decade of national renewal" after postfinancial crash austerity measures, Brexit upheaval and a costofliving crisis.But his todo list is daunting, with economic growth anaemic, public services overstretched and underfunded due to nearly a decadeandahalf of swingeing cuts, and households squeezed financially.The Labour leader has also promised a return of political integrity, after a chaotic period of five Tory prime ministers, including three in four months, scandal and sleaze. "I know that the road ahead will not be easy. There are no quick fixes, and hard choices lie ahead," Labour's likely finance minister, Rachel Reeves, said after being reelected. "We are under no illusions about the scale of the challenge that we face, or about the severity of the challenges that we will inherit from the Conservatives.". Copyright 2024 BSS.

Manage alerts on breaking news and favorite drivers. Lando Norrishas backtracked on his demand forMax Verstappento admit fault for their crash in Austria and now does not think that the Red Bull driver needs to apologise. The pair collided last weekend in Spielberg as they fought for the lead, costing them both the chance of victory, with the stewards penalising Verstappen for causing the incident. Norris labelled Verstappen reckless, stupid and desperate in the hours that followed and demanded that he admit fault. As the F1 circus rolled into Silverstone four days later for this weekend s British Grand Prix, Norris confirmed that the pair had spoken since Sunday s incident and that he had changed his view. Therefore, the Briton no longer felt an apology necessary. "A lot of adrenaline, a lot of emotions, and I probably said some things I didn't believe in, especially later on in the week. "It was a pretty pathetic incident in terms of what ended both our races, it wasn't like an obvious bit of contact. It was probably one of the smallest bits of contact you could have, but with a pretty terrible consequence for both of us, especially for myself. Max Verstappen, Red Bull Racing RB20, battles with Lando Norris, McLaren MCL38. Photo by: Andy Hone Motorsport Images. "As a review, a good race, at times very close to the edge, but we've spoken about it, and we're both happy to go racing again. Norris added that the drivers, who are friends away from the track, did not need to change too much in their future approaches, although he noted that there were probably actions that both of them could have taken to avoid the incident. He did, however, point out that the FIA should be on top of reenforcing regulations over moving under braking, as Norris noted that it could create an even larger incident. "It's a tricky one. Max isn't going to want to crash, he's not going to want to ruin his own race and his own chances," Norris added. "So I think there are different things I need to do slightly differently, but at the end of it I don't think he's going to change too much. I don't think I need to change too much. Lando Norris, McLaren MCL38, retires in the pit lane after contact with Max Verstappen, Red Bull Racing RB20, whilst battling for the lead. Photo by: Zak Mauger Motorsport Images. "We could have avoided the crash definitely, because there's something I could have done and basically used more kerb, but there's things from both sides that I'm sure we wanted to do better, in a slightly different way. "But on the whole, I think, avoiding an incident for moving under braking is probably the biggest part of it. That can very easily be an incident that comes from such a thing, and I think that's something we have to be very careful of. "That's just something for the future and something that the stewards need to be aware of, that something could easily go wrong. So I think to a certain point you're defending, you're being aggressive, and that's okay.

. URUMQI, China, July 7 Xinhua After wrapping up the Mt. Nestled on the eastern edge of the Pamir Plateau, part of the Kunlun Mountains, the 7,546meterhigh Muztagh Ata is a popular peak in China due to its high altitude and relatively accessible climbing difficulty. "I had heard about it many times before and wanted to come here five years ago, but it didn't happen then," Dawa said. "Usually, we head to Pakistan in June and July, but this year we finally got the chance to come here, and we are very excited.". The Sherpa people, renowned worldwide for their innate climbing skills, demonstrate exceptional talent in harsh highaltitude environments. Dawa is no exception. Along with his companions Lakpa Tamang and Jangbu Sherpa, each has summited Mt. Qomolangma multiple times. "On Mt. Qomolangma, for example, the Khumbu Icefall changes every month and is dangerous, so we have to scout and fix the route," Dawa explained. "Here, the difficulty and danger are not as high. It's more about equipment checks, oxygen, and ensuring safety.". Dawa can speak some Chinese, as many of his clients on Mt. Qomolangma are from China. In the recent climbing season, 20 out of his 27member group were Chinese. "To communicate better with everyone, I had to learn," he said. "If I understand Chinese, it means I have more skills and can earn more.". After the Mt. Qomolangma season, Sherpas often migrate worldwide, assisting climbers on various peaks. Dawa and an increasing number of his colleagues now see China as a significant part of their careers. "The accessibility here is excellent. In Nepal, if you go to Mt. Qomolangma, you have to walk for a long time with pack animals carrying your gear. But in Muztagh Ata, you can reach the base by car," he said. "It's beautiful here, the sunshine is great, and everyone I meet is very friendly.". Dawa, who enjoys experiencing different cultures in various cities beyond mountaineering, took advantage of his rare winter holiday last year to explore the nation with his family. "China has always intrigued me," Dawa said. "Last year, we traveled to Shanghai and Chengdu. We experienced the highspeed trains and finally saw the pandas we had longed to see.". In recent years, many young Chinese have left cities to challenge themselves in the mountains, eagerly sharing their achievements and joy on short video platforms like TikTok, fueling the popularity of mountaineering. "Today's young people are always on computers and phones, which makes them anxious. Going out will feel refreshing and give them more energy when they return to work," he said. "After overcoming the difficulties of climbing, they will better understand how to enjoy life.". The climbing season is not over yet, but Dawa is already looking forward to returning to China next year. "I want to teach Chinese people climbing skills, help them improve themselves, and realize their dreams," said the Nepalese. Enditem.

Nepalese climber Dawa is fascinated by China's mountains, especially Muztagh Ata, offering accessibility and beauty. He notes China's allure and learning Chinese for better communication, highlighting the country's popularity among climbers. Dawa aims to teach Chinese climbers, emphasizing the joy and growth found in mountaineering.

To enjoy additional benefits. Published July 07, 2024 12:40 am IST HYDERABAD. BJP MP E. Rajender and BJP corporators coming out after the GHMC Council meeting in Hyderabad on Saturday. Photo Credit: G RAMAKRISHNA. Pandemonium prevailed during the 9th general body meeting of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation GHMC, leading to its conclusion without any discussion on the agenda items on Saturday. The meeting started on a raucous note as the BRS corporators began to protest demanding the resignation of Mayor Gadwal Vijayalakshmi who defected to the Congress party, leading to the first of the four adjournments of the day. After the Council met again, the Mayor could convince the parties to let the House pay tributes to the deceased members. However, she was stalled from delivering her customary speech which got disrupted by members from BJP who demanded that condolences be taken up first. Following this, the deaths of BRS MLA G. Lasya Nanditha, Congress leader D. Srinivas and MIM corporator Shaheen Begum were condoled by the House. BRS members continued their protest later, not allowing the question hour to progress. The Mayor initiated the introduction of the GHMC Commissioner Amrapali Kata and other officials who had recently assumed their respective charges. Midway through the introductions, BJP members rose again in protest demanding the appearance of the Managing Director of the Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply Sewerage Board, instead of the directors, who were present. Holding placards, they stormed to the podium, when the meeting was adjourned again. During the adjournment, members from BJP and MIM came to blows, when the latter objected to their party chief Asaduddin Owaisi s caricature on the former s placards along with those of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and BRS chief K. Chandrashekhar Rao. MIM members led by Syed Sohail Quadri snatched the placards and tore them down, and gave slogans against BJP. In retort, BJP members shouted Jai Shriram , and both sides tore the agenda copies. This, together with BRS members resuming their protest, led to adjournment yet again. The newly elected BJP MP from Malkajgiri Eatala Rajender arrived at this juncture, and left soon after. Thereafter, it was a virtual free for all, with BRS Congress corporators, and BJP MIM corporators running two separate floors of ruckus, indulging in sloganeering and counter sloganeering. It was a full half an hour before Ms.Vijayalakshmi resumed the chair and reprimanded both BRS and BJP members for their behaviour. However, her repeated appeals could not bring the house to order. She called the meeting to a closure before lunch hour, but not before announcing that all agenda items are deemed to have been approved. During her address, commissioner Amrapali dwelt on GHMC s preparations for the festival season, work on sanitation improvement, campaign against Dengue, and monsoon related works. GHMC is trying to find ways for additional revenue generation, and for payment to contractors, she said. Ms.Vijayalakshmi, speaking to media after the meeting, said efforts are being made to convince the government for granting local area funds to the tune of 50 lakh each to the corporators.

President Biden and other Dem candidates face a rude awakening on Election Day from amassive wave of Hispanics set to vote Republican because of lax US border policies, a top New York Latino said Sunday. Biden s disastrous immigration stance has caused an unrelenting surge of migrants to flood New York City and other urban areas across the country, leading more and more Hispanic voters who typically lean Democratic to defect from the party and instead back Donald Trump, said the Rev.Ruben Diaz Sr., a former Bronx councilman and state senator and current Trump surrogate. Hispanics, as with other voters, object to people coming over the border without papers and diverting resources from citizens, said Diaz, a native of Puerto Rico,on 770 WABC s The Cats Roundtable. . Some of them are committing crimes, he said of the migrants. This is going to be a rude awakening for the Democratic Party, Diaz predicted. That is the worst thing that the Democratic Party and President Biden have done, he said of the border crisis. Maybe they thought that by opening the border, we, the Hispanic community, would be happy. But it has been the Achilles heel for them because now even the immigrants that are here are against them. Hispanics no longer support the Democratic Party as strongly as they used to, Diaz claimed. A New York TimesSiena Collegenational poll released last weekbacks Diaz s assertion, with former President Trump leading Biden among Hispanic registered voters by 9 percentage points 5041. Even the gap between Hispanic likely voters has narrowed, with 47 for Biden and 46 for Trump as the pair race for the White House. Sign up for our Metro Daily newsletter!.

By comparison, Bidenwon nearly 60 percentof the Hispanic vote when the candidates ran against each other in 2020. Diaz, president of the 150member Bronxbased Hispanic Clergy Association, is a pentecostal minister and conservative Democrat who often backs Republicans. He is despised by many in his party for fightingagainst gay marriageand opposing abortion. But he argues that the Democratic Party has shifted too far to the left on immigration and crime. We have 150 Hispanic ministers. They all have congregations with people. Some people try to talk for us, people who don t know the community how we feel, Diaz, 81, told host John Catsimatidis. But I know the community. I know what I m talking about. I know how my Hispanic community feels. We are angry. . Diazendorsed Trumpat a Bronx rallyin Crotona Park in May. Advertisement

Hispanic voters are turning towards the Republican party due to dissatisfaction with Biden's immigration policies, with Trump gaining support among this demographic. Rev. Ruben Diaz Sr. predicts a "rude awakening" for Democrats as more Hispanics defect to the GOP. Diaz claims the party has shifted too far left on immigration and crime, causing Hispanic voters to no longer strongly support the Democrats as they did before.

Jewish community representatives have condemned the treatment of Bury South's Conservatives candidate, who is a rabbi, berated outside a mosque he had been invited to speak at. Rabbi Arnold Saunders, a councillor in Salford, who uses a walking stick, was left shaking as he was harangued and called a snake . He had gone to Masjid Bilal mosque in Prestwich to speak after prayers last Friday, as he is standing for the Conservative Party in the Bury South constituency in the General Election. He had been invited there by Muslim elders, but a video online shows the elderly candidate being abused before he enters and finally leaves without speaking. Mr Saunders said: I visited the mosque a week last Friday at the invitation of the president and the consent of the imam. "The event was intended to meet and greet worshippers before and after Friday prayers. "There were around 500 people there, with the vast majority very courteous. "However there were a number of individuals who took exception to my presence and became abusive and were quite intimidating. "I thank the mosque for inviting me. On the whole the visit went well. It just saddens me that some individuals tried to spoil it. . The Board of Deputies of British Jews said in a statement: We are disgusted by the abusive treatment of Rabbi Arnold Saunders, a candidate in Bury South. Rabbi Saunders had been invited by the elders of a local mosque; the video shows that some of the attendees took issue with this and the footage clearly shows the Rabbi was being targeted in this fashion due to his religion. We urge all who care about the health of our democracy to call out this bigotry. . During the fourminute incident, a man shouting at Rabbi Saunders tells him not to come to thehouseof Allah and orders him to leave, claiming: You justified children to be murdered when you are with your own people these are the things you say, then you come here and smile like a snake. . Christian Wakeford, who, until the election was called the Labour MP for Bury South and the party s candidate on Thursday, July 4, said in a statement on X: Both Bilal Mosque and Rabbi Saunders have undertaken many years of progressive interfaith work which is in stark contrast to this individual s behaviour which is totally unacceptable. We get nowhere in the world without dialogue and this is not representative of Bury South. Despite political disagreements myself and Rabbi Saunders have always had an excellent relationship and I hope he is ok following this incident. . The Jewish Representative Council of Greater Manchester, said in a statement: Rabbi Saunders is a much respected communal figure and we unequivocally condemn his treatment in this video. It is unquestionably antisemitic and we expect action to be taken. The incident occurred following an invitation by the mosque to meet their congregants. As an organisation we were delighted to invite and welcome members from the mosque to our hustings. The fact he has been attacked emphasises how individuals are importing the tragic conflict taking place in Israel and Gaza onto the streets of the UK. This is manifesting itself in politicians campaigning in a General Election being targeted, abused and unable to freely move around the constituencies they are seeking to represent. When politicians are unable to speak about their views in public, have meetings disrupted and their offices attacked, it constitutes a real risk to our democracy. We hope that there are no further scenes of this nature as we approach polling day. . Masjid Bilal has been contacted for comment.

Walkers have introduced a new range of Monster Munch and Wotsits with a major recipe change. To tackle high salt content and calories in its products, the British snack manufacturer has introduced a new range made from chickpeas allowing them to claim that they're no longer high in saturated fat, salt, and sugar nonHFSS. Each new packet of crisps is less than 100 calories and provides a source of fibre, 'offering consumers smarter snacking options without compromising on taste,' parent company Pepsico said in a press release. The range, 'Yummy with', includes three new flavours: Wotsits Cheese Toastie 57 calories per pack, Wotsits Crispy Bacon 57 calories per pack and Monster Munch BBQ Sauce 76 calories per pack. Pepsico claimed that the innovative recipe resulted from a 58 million investment in its Leicester factory, which allowed the company to develop a new manufacturing line and upgraded facilities. Walkers have introduced brand new flavours of Monster Munch and Wotsits with a major recipe change pictured: stock image of Monster Munch. Karen Scott, Head of Portfolio Transformation at Pepsico Europe, said: 'Thanks to innovations like the new chickpea range, we are firmly on track to achieve our goal to have 50 per cent of snack sales coming from products that are nonHFSS or sold in portions of 100 calories or less by 2025. 'This commitment to inspiring consumers to make positive choices forms part of PepsiCo Positive, our company's health and sustainability plan. 'It also contributes to PepsiCo's global ambition to expand the use of diverse ingredients like chickpea across our portfolio.'. The new crisps look to be available atSainsbury'sandTesco, ranging from 1.65 to 1.96 per sixpacket multipack. It comes after fans ofWalkers crisps have been left outraged after a very popular flavour appeared to have vanishedfrom supermarket shelves. Earlier this year, Xusers rushed to social media to express their concerns when they couldn't find any packets of Monster Munch Flamin' Hot. The clawshaped snack is very popular in the UK and the Flamin' Hot version is one of Walkers' most beloved flavours according to dismayed fans. However, Walkers revealed the brand had just been renamed and given a new look, which is why buyers hadn't been able to recognise it on the shelves. With 57 calories per pack, Wotsits Cheese Toastie flavour pictured have hit the shelves in Tesco and Sainsbury's. Walkers fan can also get their hands on a brand new Monster Munch flavour BBQ sauce pictured. The new flavours, including Wotsits Crispy Bacon, claim to be a source of fibre and have less salt. They said: 'We have given them a facelift! They are now called Sweet and Spicy Flamin' Hot. We'll be sure to pass your comments over to the wider team.'. When Monster Munch was first acquired by Walkers in 1995 it offered Roast Beef, Pickled Onion and Saucy flavours. A spicier alternative known as Flamin' Hot was then added to the range and it became a fan favourite. Meanwhile,UK crisp lovers were left disappointed to learn that another popular flavour has disappearedfrom shelves last year. Walkers confirmed to a snack fan on social media that it is no longer making Salt Vinegar Quavers. There was further disappointment expressed that the news was only revealed as a result of the crisp giant responding to a fan. Published by Associated Newspapers Ltd.

The Prince and Princess of Wales have reportedly spent hours arguing over their children's schooling, but do YOU think Kate is right for not wanting to send George to the world famous Eton College?. Kate Middleton isreportedly "heartbroken"that Prince William wants to sendPrince Georgeto Eton College, as it goes against the Firm s efforts to "modernise the monarchy" and we want to hear YOUR thoughts. ThePrince and Princess of Waleshave allegedly spent hours "arguing" over the decision to send their oldest child to the prestigious secondary school when he turns 13. According to sources, Kate is keen to break away from tradition as she was "horribly bullied" at her first boarding school and "can t bear the thought" of George suffering the same treatment. The senior royal attended girls boarding school Downe House in Berkshire, which she reportedly hated and left midterm. Kate then moved to coed boarding school Marlborough College, located in Wiltshire, where she stayed for the rest of her schooling. That's where she wants George to attend. Meanwhile, William andPrince Harryboth attended Eton College, which differed from the older generation's tradition of attending the Scottish boarding school Gordonstoun. While William enjoyed his time at Eton, Harry confessed that he does not remember his early days at theworldfamous college with any particular fondness. In an interview promoting his tellall memoir Spare, Harry spoke about how hurt he was when William told him to "pretend we don t know each other" in school. Speaking to Touch Weekly, a royal insider said: "Kate thinks sending George to such a stuffy, uppercrust institution goes against all of their efforts to modernise the monarchy.

Despite William's preference for tradition, Kate has reportedly conceded to his wish for George to attend Eton, where tuition costs 53,398.

Few pundits and polls opine about it, but Donald Trump is not President Joe Biden s only threat if he decides to soldier on with his wounded reelection quest. The greater risk is reluctant Biden voters frightened by his debate fiasco and moving to thirdparty candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. They include doublehaters, minorities and younger voters Gen Z and millennials who see Kennedy as the best alternative despite his oddball conspiracy theories about vaccines, cancer causes and other matters. It is about affiliating with a younger candidate who started his campaign as a lifelong Democrat, then switched to independent status when the Dems snubbed his frequent request to debate Biden. Kennedy is 70, Trump is 78 and Biden is 81. Kennedy s appeal rests on his reputation as a crusading environmental lawyer who understands the effects of climate change, supports women s reproductive rights and prescribes remedies for the vexing student loan and immigration issues. His raspy voice, which often strains to a whisper, hasn t deterred him. He admits to the rare medical condition known as spasmodic dysphonia, which causes his vocal chords to swell when he speaks. He has the celebrated Kennedy s smile and vigor if nothing else seems familial to the other offspring of President John F. Kennedy his uncle and Sen. Robert F. Kennedy his father both assassinated in the turbulent 1960s. National surveys before the BidenTrump debate had RFK Jr. attracting as much as 16 of likely voters. Support bumped to 20 among Democrats only. Doubtless, those figures have ticked up since the postdebate portrait of a bumbling Biden. Kennedy s role is that of a spoiler. He has no real chance of winning the 2024 presidential election. With four months left to Election Day, he is far short of qualifying for all 50 state ballots. He expects to be on nearly all of them before this fall. An obstacle could be lack of money to achieve the goal. Ballot rules differ by state and gathering sufficient signatures is costly. Yet those impediments occurred before Biden s nightmare debate performance and the gathering public concern over his age and fitness to serve another fouryear term. If Biden remains the Democrats choice, donations to Kennedy will likely improve, allowing him to possibly siphon enough votes from Biden and Trump to win a couple of states, maybe even a battleground state or two. That, in turn, could deny Biden and Trump the minimum 270 Electoral College votes needed in a close election. If it happens, the Constitution s 12th Amendment assigns the final choice to the newly elected U.S. House. Each state gets one vote, with caucuses of the separate delegations deciding the recipients. The party controlling the most state delegations holds the winning hand. It has happened only twice in American history in 1800 with the first election of Thomas Jefferson, and in 1824 with the only election of John Quincy Adams. In both instances, the nation was still in its formative stage. Biden s aging condition reflects a rising concern among newly undecided voters. Trump s latest problem links to the disconcerting Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity from criminal prosecution. The court decision has raised the specter of a Trump election victory providing him a legal pathway to use the official power of the president to exact revenge on his enemies and remove barriers to his heavyhanded agenda. An overly adversarial relationship with the rival party assures the American public of continued standstill in Washington and widening division across the nation. Bipartisanship and the public good will remain lost thoughts. But the expectation is not lost on voters drifting toward RFK Jr., examining the fallout and casting a vote against both Biden and Trump. It is the gist of an imperfect end game. Bill Ketter is CNHI senior vice president of news. Bill Ketter is CNHI senior vice president of news.

Donald Trump is not the only threat to Biden's reelection; Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is gaining appeal among reluctant Biden voters, especially double-haters, minorities, and younger voters. Despite oddball conspiracy theories, Kennedy's environmental advocacy and other positions attract support. With limited chances of winning, Kennedy could act as a spoiler, potentially influencing the Electoral College outcome. Trump's legal troubles and Biden's age and debate struggles contribute to the uncertain political landscape. Voters disillusioned with both major parties may turn to Kennedy as an alternative.

Palo Alto Online. The East Palo Alto Police Department deployed 27 officers to respond to fireworks on July 4. By the time their shift was over, officers had recovered at least two guns, made three arrests and seized a large quantity of fireworks, officials said Monday. From 6 p.m. to 2 a.m., officers responded to 135 incidents. While the department didn t give an exact count of the fireworks seized, boxes of them could be seen piled high across an office table in an image released by the city. I am incredibly proud of the work of our brave men and women who served our city that night, East Palo Alto Mayor Antonio Lopez said. Instead of taking welldeserved time off with their families, they decided to spend their holidays making our streets safer. . Fireworks weren t the only incidents that prompted a police response. During the July 4 night shift, officers responded to a reported carjacking and a reported robbery, as well as apprehending a suspect on suspicion of sexual assault. That arrest led to police seizing two pistols and highcapacity magazines, as well as heroin and amphetamines totaling roughly 250,000 in value, the city said. Despite the successes of our officers last Thursday, we know more can be done, Lopez said. The East Palo Alto seizures come as many Bay Area cities try to crack down on illegal fireworks, which are often responsible for house and brush fires. Heightened temperatures on July 4 made the region particularly susceptible to such fires, according to officials. The dry grass vegetation across the state coupled with tripledigit temperatures and the wind is the perfect recipe for a disaster, California State Fire Marshal Daniel Berlant said at a July 2 briefing. Now when you add fireworks, whether they re improperly used safe and sane or whether they re illegal fireworks, they can potentially create a catastrophic fire. .

East Palo Alto Police Department responded to fireworks on July 4, leading to the recovery of two guns and three arrests, including a suspect for sexual assault. The officers also seized a large quantity of fireworks and drugs. The crackdown comes as Bay Area cities aim to prevent fires caused by illegal fireworks amidst dry conditions.

Recently a social media influencer who loves to post in Dholuo made a post about Luo police officers. He warned Luos against friendships with Luo police officers because they will never help you when you are in need. They might even go ahead and make sure you pay a lot of money for any favours that they will make you believe they organised for you. That is typical of stereotypes. I know you have heard many stereotypes, and even confirmed some for yourself through a painful experience. However, does that make stereotypes true? Especially the ethnic based ones like; Kikuyus are thieves, Luos are violent and Kamba are promiscuous?. By now I know you have heard about GenZ this GenX that. These identity pastes are not entirely true and the person who helped us process this is the everfresh Igbo lady and author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. In her now famous speechThe Danger of a Single Story, Adichie tells us how stereotypes are not entirely untrue, but they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story. Stereotypes are single stories that emphasize our differences rather than our similarities. If stereotypes tell half the story, then I believe proverbs tell the other half that we gloss over to justify our biases. Proverbs are short sentence of wisdom with literal meaning used to give advice and enlighten the listener. Idioms on the other hand do not have literal meanings and are often used in poetry to express and idea or thought. Every community has common proverbs that are known to almost every adult and usually there is no need to expound or explain. The general acceptability of a proverb means that it resonates with the social context of the people using it. The context will keep presenting itself in the daily lives of the people which will keep the proverb fresh and relevant over time. What is important to a community will be summarized in a capsule like proverb and passed down generations. I believe that to understand people well and circumvent the danger of a single story, look at their proverbs. Most African languages are oral and did not have written codes so proverbs helped to make it easy to remember stories and events. Ever asked why Swahilis say: utaona cha mtema kuni? To mean you will get into trouble. Apparently there is a Swahili folklore of a man who went to fetch firewood in the forest but fell asleep due to exhaustion. You do not want to know what happened to him. Proverbs summarise the stories of a community. Talking of firewood. The Agikuyu have a common proverb that translates to the day for fetching firewood is the day for firewood. Back in the day people went to fetch firewood in the forest. To mitigate the potential dangers, they went in a large group. If the villagers agreed that they will go to fetch firewood on a certain day, you dropped everything so as to join the group going to fetch firewood. Hence, the day for firewood is the day for firewood and nothing else. People will say Kikuyus are thieves but this proverbs reveals their focus and purposefulness in life. People were encouraged to concentrate on what was to be done at that moment. That is also how you will hear of Karume wa Makara and Mwangi wa Iria . There is pride in being known for doing one thing well. Trying to do everything on a single day will leave you tired without achieving much. The Luo are said to be arrogant, loud and may be violent. However, they will always quote the river of blood relations must be stepped into gently. There is an ohangla artist who used the proverb in a song but the song got a different lurid title despite the positive message he tried to convey. The proverb urges Luos to tread carefully whenever a matter involves a relative. There is a high chance of being misquoted, misunderstood and things getting blown out of proportion. The Luhya who have been christened cooks and watchmen are definitely more than that. They have a common proverb that translates to; a stench requires its owners. It is related to the Luo proverb above. It reminds people that when things get difficult, it is only your close family who will bear with it. Relatives especially family will sometimes get a bad rap but will always be the last point of call. Luos and Luhyas are thus family oriented people despite the negative stereotypes around them. Nothing is as bad as a one sided half story that has been believed by people. Before you believe the half story of a stereotype, take time to learn what is really important to the person concerned. The best place to begin with if it is a community is in their proverbs. Chinua Achebe told us that proverbs are the ''palm oil with which words are eaten".

One of the most iconic actors of his generation,Kevin Baconhas been a standout in filmsof every genre for decades now. This includes his first three notable roles, all of which are now considered cinematic classics. He was there for the "I'm a zit. Get it?" line inNational Lampoon's Animal House, he was there for a moving comingofage story inDiner, and, perhaps most notably,he was there for the most iconic death scene in the entirety of theFriday the 13thfranchise. And, while Sean S. Cunningham's iconic slasher was the actor's only horror film of the '80s,he's back not just in the genre, but in the decade as well, with Ti West'sMaXXXine. Sitting down withCBRalongside costar Elizabeth Debicki,Bacon opened up about how the present seems to have gone back to the past. Though, the role's quite a bit different.

I mean, literally, I was a waiter, and I wanted to do this movie that was just because I had to.". Kevin Bacon may be four decades down the road, but he can probably still cut loose. However seeing his Footloose audition tape was a 'trippy' moment. Bacon went on to explain whyFriday the 13thwas not his only foray into the world of gore and frights. In fact,it's far from his only horror film, and he's never shied away from acknowledging his part in a slasher film and how it helped launch his early career. In Bacon's words:. "I have come back to it again and again, 'cause I like it! I like the genre I'm a consumer of it and also, I like the fact that it's life and death! I like the stakes. High stakes are something that's great for an actor.". Working onMaXXXinewas ablast from the past for Bacon. In fact, the movie takes place only five years afterFriday the 13thhit theaters and began its decadeslong reign as a classic of the genre. Bacon elaborated on his nostalgic return, saying:. "The fact that this takes place in 1985 is super interesting to me, because I was there! You know, I was there, in Hollywood, in that car that Maxine drives! That's what I used to rent when I came out here. I was an East Coast person , so there is something really kind of, like,trippy about this whole experience certainly about watching the movie.". Bacon joins Mia Goth inthe finale to theXtrilogy. Starring alongside Goth, Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Sumney, Michelle Monaghan, Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, Lily Collins, and Giancarlo Esposito,MaXXXinefinds Maxine Minx in 1980s Hollywood where she is searching for fame and success.

In a new statement, Independent Maine Senator Angus King s office said he s concerned byPresident Biden s muchcriticized debate performance, but stopped short of calling for him to end his reelection bid. A spokesman for King said the president should take every opportunity in the coming days to establish his capacity to continue the campaign and the job of the presidency through unscripted interviews and direct interactions with voters. . It is only through such a public process that he can demonstrate that Thursday was simply an off night and that his past ability to define the issues and seek common sense solutions remains undiminished, spokesman Matthew Felling said in the statement Saturday. King is an Independent who caucuses with the Democrats. Biden continues to face pressure to bow out of the race after what many, including some within his own party, saw as a listless and lifeless performance. The 81yearold Democrat s showing at the debate left supporters, prognosticators, and some Democratic members of Congresswondering whether he s ableto forcefully campaign against his Republican opponent, former President Donald Trump, and, if elected, carry out the duties of the office for another four years. Advertisement. Representative Jared Golden, a Maine Democrat, last weekdrew criticismfor saying that he believed Trump will win the election. Donald Trump is going to win. And I m okay with that, Golden wrote in anopedpublished in the Bangor Daily News. Golden, a marine veteran, said he will not vote for Trump. He also stopped short of saying Biden should drop out of the race. US Representative Seth Moulton, a Democrat from Salem who briefly ran for president in 2020, said explicitly that Biden should step aside to let new leaders rise up and run against Donald Trump. . Others, similar to King s statement, walked a fine line: Governor Maura Healey, who s been a leading surrogate for Biden,said Biden should listen to the American people and carefully evaluate whether he remains our best hope to defeat Donald Trump. She added that Biden saved our democracy in 2020 and has done an outstanding job over the last four years. . Advertisement. Jackie Kucinich of the Globe staff contributed.

Senator Angus King expressed concerns over President Biden's debate performance but did not call for Biden to drop out of the reelection race. King's office emphasized the need for Biden to showcase his ability through unscripted interactions with voters. Meanwhile, other Democrats like Representative Jared Golden and US Representative Seth Moulton suggested Biden should consider stepping aside, while Governor Maura Healey encouraged Biden to evaluate his capability to defeat Donald Trump.

Joe Biden has been spending a fair amount of time both trying to reach out to black voters as well ascampaigning in Pennsylvania.He combined both efforts during a visit to a black church in Philadelphia on Sunday in the middle of the massive controversy over whether he should continue his candidacy despite his obvious cognitive issues. Biden went to the Mount Airy Church of God in Christ in Philadelphia. But he not only seemed incredibly awkward there, he looked horrible and about a billion years old. He had that thousandyard emptyeyed stare at various points throughout the visit. His eyes are really frightening to me here. DAZED AND CONFUSED: The Joe Biden Storypic.twitter.comFVoQLcjl8i. Then, while he's supposed to be listening to the pastor and paying attention, he pulls out his binder of notes, and you can see him studying them and how comprehensive they are with what looks like the pictures of the people he's probably supposed to meet in there. Crooked Joe has prewritten scripts in his binder AND his jacket pocket impressive!pic.twitter.comOvNEwZBdwd. He also pulled out notes from his jacket pocket to look at those. Then Bishop J. Louis Felton spoke a little about Biden, and I don't think it helped. From the pulpit of the church Biden is attending: "I don't know why it is that you want to make an issue of the president and his condition with stammering and not being able, at certain times, to bring forth words.."Because it isn't "stammering" it's cognitive declinepic.twitter.comj67ZkWBD8z. "I don't know why it is that you want to make an issue of the president and his condition with stammering and not being able, at certain times, to bring forth words when another person lies fluently and you never challenge his lies," Felton said. When you're having to justify why the alleged leader of the free world can't "bring forth words," it's not exactly a good look. Being able to "bring forth words" is sort of a prerequisite of the job. It'snot stammering, it's coherence and competence, critically important things for the job. Plus, let's be real here, Biden lies his head off constantly, so why do his supporters pretend like he doesn't or act like it's somehow justifiable?. But Felton wasn't done there. He spoke about a bumper sticker on a senior citizen's car that said, "I may be slow, but I'm in front of you." Then he said, "Use his handicaps..". OMG this is really sad.Biden heads over to the Black church and the pastor prays that God will use Biden's handicaps. pic.twitter.comf31h9dCBKU. My gosh, did he really say that? I mean, we all can use prayer, and likely Joe needs a lot for all the things he's done, but talk about being brutally honest there. It didn't start well. When Joe speaks to a black audience, you know there will be certain stories he'll pull out. He used a couple of them here, resurrecting how he used to go to the black church after he went to his Catholic Church and how he was working for civil rights, which even he has debunked in the past. Biden once again falsely claims he'd go to a black church in Delaware during the civil rights movement to make "plans for what we're gonna do to change the situation"pic.twitter.comdoBWcfOcjE. He claimed he worked as a "public defender in the civil rights movement." Huh? He said he'd then go out to the local AME church to make "plans for what we're gonna do to change the situation.". Then his looks at the end of the service were again scary and empty. It looked like he didn't know he was supposed to stand when it was announced, "Let us stand.". PASTOR: "Let us stand together! "BIDEN: nervously glances at handlerspic.twitter.comtwC5FsmpxK. Naturally, he had the obligatory confusion trying to leave the stage again. Biden, wrapping up his pandering visit to a Philadelphia church, predictably gets lost as he shuffles out the doorpic.twitter.comclNq6PzfXy. If his team believes this is helping him, I think they're sadly mistaken. It's just going to drive up former President Donald Trump's numbers even more and heighten the calls for Joe to step aside.

Image courtesy of Yonhap. SEOUL, Jul. 5 Korea Bizwire North Korea on Friday stressed the need for swift and accurate weather forecasts, as heavy rain likely to fall during the summer monsoon season could seriously affect the country s agriculture. The Rodong Sinmun, the North s main newspaper, reported that having accurate weather forecasts is a matter of survival for the agricultural sector, which is gravely affected by weather conditions. North Korea held a science conference on weather and ocean earlier this week in a bid to explore ways to minimize damage from typhoons, heavy rain, droughts and heat waves, according to the Korean Central News Agency. North Korea is vulnerable to flash flooding and heavy rain due to poor irrigation and deforestation. The country has been suffering from chronic food shortages that were aggravated amid global sanctions on its nuclear and missile programs and unfavorable weather. At the latest plenary party meeting, North Korean leader Kim Jongun said that the farming situation throughout the country up to now is fairly good, calling for further efforts to ramp up crop output. The North s crop production is estimated to have reached 4.82 million tons last year, but it was still below 5.76 million tons, the annual amount that the North needs to feed its people, according to a projection by the Food and Agriculture Organization for North Korea.

DHAKA: Thousands of Bangladeshi university students threw roadblocks across key highways on Sunday, demanding the end of discriminatory quotas for coveted government jobs, including reserving posts for children of liberation heroes. Students in almost all major universities took part, demanding a meritbased system for wellpaid and massively oversubscribed civil service jobs. It s a doordie situation for us, protest coordinator Nahidul Islam said, during marches at Dhaka University. Quotas are a discriminatory system, the 26yearold added. The system has to be reformed . The current system reserves more than half of posts, totalling hundreds of thousands of government jobs. That includes 30 per cent reserved for children of those who fought to win Bangladeshi independence in 1971, 10 percent for women, and 10 percent set aside for specific districts. Students oppose 30pc posts for children of liberation heroes , 10pc for women and 10pc for specific districts. Students said only those quotas supporting ethnic minorities and disabled people six percent of jobs should remain. Critics say the system benefits children of progovernment groups, who back Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Her father, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, was Bangladesh s founding leader. Hasina, 76, won her fourth consecutive general election in January, in a vote without genuine opposition parties, with a widespread boycott and a major crackdown against her political opponents. Critics accuse Bangladeshi courts of rubberstamping decisions made by her government. The system was initially abolished after weeks of student protests in 2018. But in June, Dhaka s High Court rolled that back, saying the cancellation had been invalid. Wasting their time . Hasina has condemned the protests, saying the matter had been settled by the court. Students are wasting their time, Hasina told female activists from her party on Sunday, Bangladeshi newspapers reported. After the court s verdict, there is no justification for the antiquota movement. Protests began earlier in July and have grown in size. We will bury the quota system , students chanted on Sunday in Bangladesh s second city Chittagong, where hundreds of protesters marched. Published in Dawn, July 8th, 2024.

Bangladeshi university students protest on highways demanding an end to discriminatory job quotas for government positions, pushing for a merit-based system instead. They oppose reserved posts for specific groups, including children of liberation heroes. Students want quotas only for ethnic minorities and disabled individuals. Prime Minister Hasina has condemned the protests, stating that the court has settled the matter. Despite initial attempts to abolish the quota system in 2018, the issue remains unresolved and protests are growing.

The Pakistan government on Monday decided to deploy the Army across the country to maintain law and order during Muharram, amidst fears of attacks by militant groups on Shiite rallies. Muharram, the first month of the Islamic calendar, began on Monday. Shiite Muslims take out rallies during the first ten days of the month to commemorate the martyrdom of Hussein Ibne Ali, the grandson of the Prophet of Islam. The Ministry of Interior decided to deploy regular army troops following requests by the provinces. According to a notification issued by the ministry, the details of troop deployment, which will be enforced indefinitely, will be finalised with the authorities of the provinces concerned, including Gilgit Baltistan, Pakistanoccupied Kashmir and Islamabad. "The date of derequisitioning of said deployment will be decided subsequently after mutual consultation among all stakeholders," the notification stated. According to Islamic traditions, Hussein was killed along with at least 72 family members on the 10th of Muharram in the Karbala area of modernday Iraq in 680 A.D. by the forces of Muslim ruler Yazid Ibne Muawia, who considered him a threat to his rule. The Muslims generally observe his martyrdom as a symbol of resistance to tyranny, and the Shiite Muslims take out rallies culminating in huge processions on the 9th and 10th day of the month. The Sunni Muslims have a historic theological rivalry with the Shiite, and extremist Sunni groups brand them as heretics and target them through bombings, with Pakistan witnessing numerous such attacks in the past. The government often deploys regular army troops to help civil law enforcement agencies keep peace during Muharram. To disrupt communication among the militants, governments in Pakistan undertook other security measures during Muharram, including suspension of internet, cell phone and social media services. Earlier, the provincial governments, including Punjab, had requested that the federal government suspend social media platforms for one week to curb the spread of hate on the internet. However, the Ministry of Interior referred the matter to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif who is expected to decide on the request. Disclaimer: With inputs from agencies.

Following accusations thatiPhonemanufacturer Foxconn discriminates against hiring married women, the Indian government has questioned executives and is studying documentary evidence. In lateJune 2024, iPhone assembler Foxconn was accused of refusing to hire married women for its plant in India. Since the accusation, Prime Minister Narendra Modi asked for the local government of Tamil Nadu state to investigate.According toReuters, afivemember teamfrom the federal government's regional labor department visited the Foxconn plant in Chennai on July 1, 2024. As well as questioning executive officers, the team interviewed 40 married women, none of whom raised concerns about discrimination. "We are collecting information, and have asked the company to submit documents like company policies, recruitment policies," regional labor commissioner A. Narasaiah toldReuters. "They told us they are not discriminating. "Narasaiah further said that Foxconn reported currently having 51,281 workers, of whom 33,360 were women. Foxconn further claimed that 8 of the women, around 2,750, were married.Significantly, the company has not as yet broken down those figures into specific areas. So it has not, for instance, said how many married women work in iPhone assembly, where the accusation says there is discrimination.Also importantly, the Indian government's team says it has no plans to question Foxconn's thirdparty recruitment staff. The discrimination accusation claims that four such recruiters had told candidates that only unmarried women were eligible.The alleged practice of denying married women jobs is politically important in India. Prime Minister Modi is trying to encourage women into work, and for those women, employers such as Foxconn represent a way out of poverty.Neither Foxconn nor Apple's hiring practices officially discriminate. However, sources within Foxconn said that unofficially, married women were seen to have family duties, and a greater likelihood of getting pregnant.Apple has not commented on this latest investigation, but did say after the initial accusation that it has worked to stop the practice. "When concerns about hiring practices were first raised in 2022," said Apple in a statement, "we immediately took action and worked with our supplier to conduct monthly audits to identify issues and ensure that our high standards are upheld. ""All of our suppliers in India hire married women, including Foxconn," continued Apple.Separately, figures from April 2024, show that Apple's expansion in India, and away from China, is having an impact.Some 14of all iPhones now come from India, for instance.Read on AppleInsider. .

The Center Square A national election watchdog group has joined a pair of New York Republican Congresswomen challenging the state's mail voting law in court. The Public Interest Legal Foundation filed an amicus curiaebriefwith the state Supreme Court supporting Rep. Elise Stefanik, Rep. Claudia Tenney, and other New York elected officials in their lawsuit challenging a state law allowing universal mail voting. The Democraticcontrolled New York legislature approved a law in 2021 allowing New York voters to cast ballots through the mail. Gov. Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, signed the measure into law. The move followed the rejection of a constitutional amendment to authorize "no excuse" balloting by mail, which failed, with more than 55 of voters rejecting the referendum. Shortly after Hochul signed the bill, Stefanik filed a lawsuit in the state Superior Court with the New York State Republican Party, Conservative Party, and other members of the New York Republican House delegation, seeking to block the new law. The GOP lawmakers argue that the law directly violates the New York Constitution, which only allows voting by mail if the person is out of the state or country on Election Day, sick, taking care of someone who is sick, incarcerated or because of illness or physical disability. "Expansion of mail voting was rejected by New York voters," J. Christian Adams, the foundation's president, said in a statement. "Now, the New York Legislature has unconstitutionally passed a law to allow every registered voter to cast a ballot in the mail. The plain text of the New York Constitution prohibits the expansion of mail voting.". "Granting all voters absentee status would render this text of the New York Constitution superfluous, redundant and without purpose," lawyers for the group wrote in the19page legal brief. In May, a state appellate court affirmed a lower court s ruling dismissing the GOPbacked lawsuit, but the plaintiff filed an appeal to the state Supreme Court, which agreed to consider the legal challenge. The foundation filed a lawsuit against Delaware in 2022 to block a similar law authorizing universal mailin voting, arguing that the Delaware Constitution included similar provisions. In February, the Delaware Supreme Courtruledthat expanding voting by mail violated the state constitution. A group of Delaware Democrats filed a bill to authorize early and mail voting shortly after the court's ruling, but the state House of Representatives rejected it. "This court should follow the reasoning of the Delaware Supreme Court and refrain from allowing the Legislature to sidestep the constitutional amendment process and rewrite the State s Constitution by contrary and conflicting statutes," the foundation's lawyers wrote in the brief.

UK pub operator JD Wetherspoon continues to seek buyers for 10 trading pubs in the group some nine months after it put its regional Irish portfolio of pubs on the market with a guide price of 10 million. On Wednesday the pub giant reported a 5.5 per cent increase in sales over the 10week period to the end of last Friday compared with the same period last year. Wetherspoon said it had surrendered the lease or sold some 26 premises over the period with a further 10 trading pubs still on the market or under offer. Last October, Wetherspoon confirmed it was seeking a buyer for its regional portfolio in the Republic comprising premises in Cork, Waterford, Galway and Carlow. The premises were being offered for sale in one or separate individual lots, guiding at 10 million for the entire portfolio. Three of the properties in the portfolio were trading at the time of the announcement: An Geata Arundel on Arundel Square in Waterford; The Linen Weaver on Paul Street in Cork, and The Tullow Gate on Tullow Street in Carlow. On Wednesday, the group, which currently has an estate of 801 pubs, said it has largely disposed of venues which are smaller and older , or where it has another site in close proximity. At its peak the pub firm had around 950 venues in 2015 but has never reached its stated target of 30 pubs in the Republic. Earlier this year the company said it still hoped to meet longterm ambitions of growing to 1,000 venues despite shrinking the size of its estate. The company has disposed of some venues amid efforts to reduce its debt burden. On Wednesday Wetherspoon said it expects its net debt to stand at around 670 million at the end of the financial year. In a statement Wetherspoon chairman Tim Martin said trading conditions remain challenging despite a sharp recovery in pub sales since the pandemic. Sales per pub are approximately 21 per cent higher than prepandemic levels, which has helped to compensate for the very substantial increase in costs. For example, compared to the 2019 financial year, labour in this financial year has increased by approximately 164 million, energy by 28 million, repairs also affected by labour costs by 38 million and interest excluding IFRS 16 interest by 16 million. . However, Mr Martin said Wetherspoon s total sales are at record levels despite having fewer venues than it did a year ago, and the group expects profits to be in line with expectations this year.

A British woman says she has been a fulltime van dweller for years, adding that her unique way of life gives her immunity from speeding fines and parking penalties. The booming vanlife trend has attracted hundreds of individuals across the UK, with some being forced into the lifestyle by the costofliving crisis, while others just enjoying the liberty of life on the open road. However, according to fulltime van dweller Kate, who shares her unconventional lifestyle on the Van Lifer UK YouTube channel, she's "the only real Van Lifer in this country.".

ATLANTAThe family of church deacon Johnny Hollman, who died during a traffic stop in Atlanta, met with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis on Tuesday. The family is demanding arrests and criminal charges in Hollman's death, not only against the former officer who used a Taser on him, but also a tow truck driver who helped to restrain him. PREVIOUS STORY:Johnny Hollman death: Family of deacon killed during traffic stop seek charges against officer. On Aug. 10, 2023, Hollman got into an accident near Cunningham and Joseph E. Lowery boulevards. An Atlanta police officer determined Hollman was at fault and wrote a citation. The officer claims Hollman became frustrated, agitated, and uncooperative. A bodyworn camera on the officer captured the encounter. It was released three months after the incident. "You're not going to scream at me. You understand what I'm telling you? Now you're either going to sign the ticket or you're going to go to jail," Officer Kiran Kimbrough tells Hollman in the video. The 62yearold was stunned multiple times using a Taserafter refusing to sign that traffic ticket, leading to an abnormal heart rhythm and his death. Kimbroughwould later be firedfrom the Atlanta Police Department. Atlanta Police Department has released the raw body cam footage of the tasing and arrest of 62yearold Atlanta deacon Johnny Hollman. The deacon's family also takes issue with SW Tow truck driver Eric Robinson. They claim Robinson inserted himself into the encounter by sitting on the deacon's head and neck. The family says DA Willis told them her Public Integrity Unit needs more time to investigate his involvement. "I'm optimistic and I'm hopeful. I have prayed about it. I have talked to God about it. I know charges are gonna be brought. I know we are gonna see justice," Arnitra Hollman exclaimed. RELATED:Deacon Johnny Hollman community cookout. . The family is critical of state lawmakers who they claims have made the prosecution of police officers more difficult. "You got to do better with making these laws. You gotta do better with helping families like us get the prosecution we need to see. You can't tie the prosecutors' hands and expect them to do the job to help these families. We are heartbroken," Arnitra Hollman said with passion. Hollman's death was ruled a homicide, and while Atlanta City Council approved a3.8 million settlement, no charges have been filed. Following Hollman's death, the Atlanta Police Department revised its ticketing procedures to avoid arresting individuals who refuse to sign traffic citations. Officers will now write "refusal to sign" on the signature line and issue a copy of the charges instead of physically arresting the driver. The Fulton County District Attorney's Office has not offered a timeline on when a decision on charges would be made. The DA declined comment when questioned by FOX 5. Breaking news delivered fast.

Scottish holidaymakers are facing a summer of strike chaos as airport security staff vow to walkout within days unless pay demands are met. Hundreds of workers at Aberdeen andGlasgowairports have warned strike action was inevitable just as the summer rush reaches its peak. Airports are expecting their busiest period since before the pandemic as Scots escape the country s sofar underwhelming summer for sunnier climes. But those wanting to escape to hotter destinations like the Canary Islands,GreeceandSpainhave been told to brace for widespread disruption unless a better pay deal is offered. Yesterday Unite confirmed that the ICTS Central Search employees, who deal with passengers directly in the security search areas and process them for flights, could start action in midJuly unless ICTS significantly moves on pay in the coming days. Holidaymakers face delays and disruption at two of Scotland's busiest airports this month after security staff backed strike action over pay. . They had been offered a four per cent pay rise, back dated to January, and a 500 oneoff payment but workers have dismissed it as not enough. Pat McIlvogue, the union s lead industrial officer for aviation in Scotland, warned: Strike action is now inevitable because 300 ICTS workers at Aberdeen and Glasgow airports have been left with no choice but to fight for what they deserve. We are calling on AGS, the owner of the airports to intervene in a final attempt to get ICTS to step back from the brink of a major dispute which will cause widespread disruption. Without these workers, the airports simply can t operate. . Despite the threat ICTS insisted there would be no disruptions . At Glasgow Airport around 600,000 passengers expected to pass through the terminal in the three weeks leading up to July 18. In what airport bosses are expecting will be their busiest period since 2019, until midJuly an average of 30,000 passengers will pass through its doors every single day on more than 240 flights. Meanwhile, at Aberdeen Airport, around three million passengers pass through its doors a year and sees holiday makers jet off to some of Europe s most popular destinations including Alicante and Amsterdam. It is also a vital lifeline for those travelling around the country, with domestic flights including those to London Heathrow and Sumburgh, in Shetland. Unite yesterday said scheduled talks with ICTS Central Search management were cancelled at the last minute by the firm in June and there has been no break through in negotiations despite months of talks. Strike action was backed by 98.5 per cent at Glasgow airport, with the ballot involving around 200 ICTS workers. At Aberdeen, 89.7 per cent of the roughly 100 workers backed the strike. An ICTS spokesman said: Constructive pay talks with our staff at Glasgow and Aberdeen airports are ongoing. We would like to reassure the travelling public that their security is our priority and there will be no disruptions. . And spokesman for AGS, which owns and operates Aberdeen and Glasgow airports, said: AGS does not involve itself in discussion between third parties, however, we are ensuring that ongoing dialog between ICTS and Unite can continue with a view to reaching a positive outcome. .

New Delhi, Jul 7: The Supreme Court will hear on Monday a batch of pleas related to the controversyridden medical entrance exam NEETUG 2024, including those alleging irregularities and malpractices in the May 5 test and seeking a direction to conduct it afresh. The Centre and the National Testing Agency NTA, which conducts NEETUG, recently told the apex court that scrapping the exam would be counterproductive and seriously jeopardise lakhs of honest candidates in the absence of any proof of largescale breach of confidentiality.According to the cause list for July 8 uploaded on the court s website, a bench comprising Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra is scheduled to hear a total of 38 petitions related to the exam.The National EligibilitycumEntrance TestUndergraduate NEETUG is conducted by the NTA for admissions to MBBS, BDS, AYUSH and other related courses in government and private institutions across the country.The NTA and the Union education ministry have been at the centre of media debates and protests by students and political parties over alleged largescale malpractices ranging from question paper leaks to impersonation in the test held on May 5.The Union education ministry and the NTA have filed separate affidavits in the apex court, opposing the pleas which have sought scrapping of the exam, a retest and a courtmonitored probe into the entire gamut of issues involved.In their responses, they have said the CBI, the country s premier investigating agency, has taken over the cases registered in different states. It is also submitted that at the same time, in the absence of any proof of any largescale breach of confidentiality in a panIndia examination, it would not be rational to scrap the entire examination and the results already declared, the Centre said in its preliminary affidavit filed by a director in the ministry of education. Scrapping the exam in entirety would seriously jeopardise the lakhs of honest candidates who attempted the question paper in 2024, the ministry said.The NTA, in its separate affidavit, reiterated the Centre s stand and said, The cancellation of the entire examination on the basis of the aforesaid factor, would be hugely counterproductive and significantly harmful to the larger public interest, especially to the career prospects of the qualified candidates. The agency said the entirety of the NEETUG 2024 exam was carried out fairly and with due confidentiality without any illegal practices, and the claim of mass malpractice during the exam is completely unfounded, misleading, and lacks any basis . It is submitted that if the entire examination process is cancelled without there being any tangible factors warranting such actions it would be highly detrimental to the larger public interest involving the academic career of lakhs of students who have attempted the examination fairly without any wrongdoing or even an allegation of wrongdoing, the NTA said.The ministry and the NTA have said there was no proof of any largescale breach of confidentiality in the examination which was taken by over 23 lakh candidates at 4,750 centres in 571 cities.The government said it has constituted a highlevel committee of experts to suggest effective measures for conducting transparent, smooth and fair examinations by the NTA.The affidavit said the panel shall make recommendations on reforms in the mechanism of the examination process, improvement in data security protocols and structure, and functioning of the National Testing Agency.Initially expected on June 14, the results were announced on June 4 due to early completion of the answer sheet evaluation.Allegations of irregularities, including paper leaks, have led to protests in several cities and sparring between rival political parties.The Centre and the NTA on June 13 told the court that they had cancelled the grace marks awarded to 1,563 candidates.They were given the option to either take a retest or forgo the compensatory marks awarded for loss of time.The NTA announced the revised rank list on July 1 after issuing the results of the retest held on June 23.A total of 67 students had scored a perfect 720, unprecedented in the NTA s history, with six from a Haryana centre figuring in the list, raising suspicions about irregularities in the examination. It has been alleged that grace marks contributed to the 67 students sharing the top rank.The number of candidates sharing the top rank in the NEETUG reduced to 61 from 67 as the NTA announced the revised results on July 1.

'Any injury caused would have been caused by Mr Lloyd taking action in selfdefence.'. It's had the same effect on my wife. I'm glad it's all over. It was very stressful. It's taken over our lives for the last six months.'. 'On the day, the police officer asked 'are you prepared to come to the station? It's a voluntary interview. If you don't come, I will arrest you' it wasn't much of a choice. 'I thought I was purely giving my side of the event. It turned out they were treating me as a suspect. They didn't make that clear.'. Mr Lloyd, who has medical problems with both hands and was charged in March, added: 'The amount of support I have had from clients is unbelievable.'.

Iran Expands Missile Production Facilities, Satellite Images Reveal. Desertification Crisis in Iran: A Looming Environmental Catastrophe. As widespread public participation was lacking in the second round of the government vote to determine the successor to Ebrahim Raisi on Friday, July 5th, reports indicated severe internet disruptions or outages in several cities, including Tehran, Ahvaz, and Rasht. According to reports, the internet was cut off in several cities, including Ahvaz and Rasht, or its speed was significantly reduced in cities like Tehran.Some social media users attributed this action to preventing the spread of news and images related to empty polling stations. According to statistics announced by the Iranian regime, the participation rate in this vote was about 40, and the majority of Iranian voters boycotted the first round. However, there are serious doubts about the accuracy of these statistics. Many accuse the government of manipulating the results and inflating the number of votes cast, claiming that the actual participation rate was much lower than reported. The People s Mojahedin Organization of Iran PMOI, the main opposition to the Iranian regime, stated that the participation rate in the first round was 12. According to these governmental statistics, the participation rate in the first round of voting for government candidates to determine Ebrahim Raisi s successor, held on Friday, June 28th, was 40. On the other hand, political prisoners, journalists, civil and political activists, and grieving families continued to refrain from voting. According to civil and human rights activists, political prisoners in Evin and Ghezel Hesar prisons refused to vote.After the ballot boxes were taken to Evin prison, over a hundred political prisoners refused to participate in this electoral circus. While images and videos from dozens of cities in Iran indicated widespread public nonparticipation in the voting, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Interior s Election Headquarters, Mohsen Eslami, announced a twohour extension of the voting time until 8 PM. This time was later extended to midnight. Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Iranian regime, finally acknowledged on July 3rd, after four days of silence, that public participation in the first round of voting among the regime s preferred candidates to succeed Raisi was less than expected. . While the majority of Iranian citizens boycotted the government voting and likened it to a circus and a show, Ali Khamenei claimed on Wednesday, July 3rd: The idea that those who did not vote in the first round are against the regime is completely wrong. This comes after he had emphasized the importance of participation in the voting before the recent vote to replace Raisi, saying that high participation would bring pride to the Islamic Republic. . Additionally, the regime s Ministry of Interior sent text messages urging people to participate in the elections. The lack of public participation in these elections is unprecedented in the history of the Iranian regime. Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the Presidentelect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran NCRI, referred to the election boycott by the people in a message on her X account and said: Congratulations to the Iranian people for their determination to overthrow the religious dictatorship. This marks another crushing sledgehammer of a boycott to the principle of the velayate faqih absolute clerical rule and Khamenei s farcical electoral masquerade. The disgraced and futile attempts to manipulate turnout figures in this second round of election sham have crumbled. This represents a universal no to religious despotism, a decisive vote by the Iranian people to overthrow regime and to establish a democratic republic. In a democratic Iran, there will be no room for despotism, remnants of clerics or the Shah, executions, or torture. .

Beastly Beryl. How do I hate thee? Let me count the ways. I ll start by what you did in June. You were the easternmost hurricane to form in the Atlantic in the month of June, beating the old record set by the 1933 Trinidad hurricane by an astounding 660 miles of open ocean. 247 South Florida news stream: Watch NBC6 free wherever you are. You also jumped to the top of the history charts by becoming the strongest recorded June hurricane as measured by windspeed, beating 1957 s Hurricane Audrey. Then, still in June, you became theearliest Category 4 hurricane ever recorded in the Atlantic basin. All these infamous June accomplishments were facilitated by rapid intensification, the process by which a storm like you can gain strength rapidly fed by the warm waters underneath it. And are they ever warm! Recordhot, as a matter of fact. In your case, Beryl, you became the first June system on record to undergo rapid intensification in the open Atlantic east of the Caribbean, the area known as the Main Development Region. In July and I realize the month is just four days old you outdid yourself. . First, you hit Carriacou, one of the Grenadine Islands located between Grenada and St. Vincent in the Windwards, as a Category 4. You became the strongest hurricane to hit this far south in the Windward Islands, regardless of month! People died because of you. Then you peaked as a Category 5, 165mileperhour monster mercifully over the open Caribbean Sea away from land. But that s a record too, for the earliestforming Cat 5. You undoubtedly fed off of the remarkably hot water that s brought chronic heatwaves to the Antilles since last year. Then yesterday, you were finally hit by upper level wind shear. You lost some strength and your eye clouded over. And yet, your remarkable resilience kept you at Cat 4 intensity as you skirted along the south coast of Jamaica with 140 mph sustained winds and potential gusts to near 200 mph on hillsides and mountaintops. Now you re on your way to Mexico s Yucatan Peninsula. I ll feel lucky if you drop below major hurricane status, as forecast by the National Hurricane Center NHC. This part of Mexico is used to strong hurricanes, but it s never easy for those living on very basic means to weather storms like you. And since you re so darn sassy, you re probably not done after the Yucatan. The Gulf of Mexico awaits, and, wait for it, a possible turn towards the United States?! NHC already has their cone over parts of Texas thanks to you. I can only hope that you ll be showing your age by then. Your death will be celebrated. As will the death of your name, which will undoubtedly be retired after having appeared every 6 years on the list of Atlantic tropical storm names since the 1980s. Beryl, I can only hope that all the records you ve set will last forever. But given how we ve already changed our climate, I have low expectations.

Beryl set multiple records in June and July as the easternmost, strongest, and earliest forming hurricane in the Atlantic. It underwent rapid intensification fueled by record-hot waters, causing devastation in the Windward Islands and potentially heading towards the Gulf of Mexico and the United States. Despite weakening, Beryl's impact is feared, and hopes are for a safer future without such destructive storms.

A peer facilitator displays materials from the Rupantaran tool kit provided by UNICEF to a class of adolescent girls in Nepal s Maharajganj Municipality. The 15module package, developed by UNICEF and the United Nations Population Fund UNFPA in collaboration with the Government of Nepal, is designed to equip participants with crucial social and financial knowledge and skills. Marriage before age 18 robs girls of their childhood and threatens their wellbeing. Since 2018, Zonta International has provided critical support for theGlobal Programme to End Child MarriageGPEM, a joint initiative between UNICEF and the United Nations Population Fund UNFPA that promotes the rights of adolescent girls toprevent child marriage and pregnancy, and enables them to achieve their aspirations through education and pathways to selfsufficiency. The GPEM empowers girls to direct their own futures and strengthens the services that allow them to do so, providing critical resources related to sexual and reproductive health and social protection. It also addresses the underlying conditions that sustain child marriage, advocating for datainformed laws and policies that protect girls' rights. Nearly half of the world's child brides live inSouth Asia45 percent, with the next largest share in subSaharan Africa 20 percent, followed by East Asia and the Pacific 15 percent and Latin America and the Caribbean 9 percent. The GPEM focuses efforts on 12 of the most highprevalence countries: Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, India, Mozambique, Nepal, Niger, Sierra Leone, Uganda, Yemen and Zambia. Nepal's child marriage rate isone of the highest in the world. Child marriage has affected 5 million child brides there, including 1.3 million who are married before the age of 15. Recognizing the pressing need to address this issue, the Government of Nepal raised the legal age of marriage for women and men to 20 in 2017, and has pledged to end child marriage by 2030. Despite progress, teen marriage and pregnancy remain a pressing problem, especially in marginalized communities. The GPEM has helped establish communityfocused, culturally sensitive programming to provide women and girls in Nepal with comprehensive life skills training needed to address and prevent marriage at an early age. On a recent visit to Nepal, Zonta leadership and members experienced the impact of this programming on girls and women firsthand. Taught at schools and through women's cooperatives, theRupantaran programaims to provide adolescents between 10 and 19 with the information and skills they need to navigate society and plan for their future. "To see the faces of the girls the bright, shining eyes and the hope they expressed I think that was heartwarming and touching, and these are pictures I will never forget," said Zonta International President Ute Scholtz.Watch the video. Developed by UNICEF and UNFPA in collaboration with the Government of Nepal, and implemented with support from partners includingZonta, Rupantaran's comprehensive curriculum teaches girls to build social and financial skills, examine gender stereotypes and achieve selfsufficiency. "In Rupantaran,we learned a lot about child marriage," said 17yearold Anjani. "We learned that when marriage happens before the age of 20, that is child marriage. Child marriage causes us a lot of harm. Becoming pregnant and birth at a young age can cause a lot of physical issues. Taking care of small children when you're young is difficult too.". Child marriage causes us a lot of harm. . Rupantaran graduate Rachana Lamsal, 18, was selected by her school to take the 10day facilitators' training. "I loved it from the very first day," she said. "Of all the things I learned during the training, the component of selfawareness is the one that resonates the most with me.It s so important to be selfaware to achieve anything in life; it s what drives your commitment to a cause. "I feel it s not enough for me to have learned something, it needs to be shared with others around me, people in my society," she continued. "Child marriage must be uprooted because it damages the lives of girls. I want to use my training to uplift the lives of other young girls like me, as well as continue building my own skills. I want to do the best I can to solve these problems at a global level. That s my dream. .

UNICEF provides a toolkit to adolescent girls in Nepal to prevent child marriage and pregnancy. Zonta International supports the Global Programme to End Child Marriage, aiming to empower girls in high-prevalence countries such as Nepal. The Rupantaran program equips girls with social and financial skills to combat child marriage and achieve self-sufficiency. The Government of Nepal has increased the legal age of marriage to 20 to address the issue. Nepal's child marriage rate is among the highest globally, with efforts ongoing to eradicate this harmful practice.

Jul 4, 2024. NORTH HARMONY The town of North Harmony has recently partnered with the Chautauqua Lake and Watershed Management Alliance to complete an engineering design report for a problematic section of Ball Creek. The study is being done to help with the health of Chautauqua Lake, which is noted to be an invaluable asset to the county and municipalities that border it, but has also been designated an impaired water body and its health and usability are threatened. The study of Ball Creek will help for future restoration efforts for the lake. The town was recently awarded a Round Three Nonpoint Source Planning Grant from the Department of Environmental Conservation for the Town of North Harmony Ball Creek Stabilization Engineering Study Phase One. The town has since been looking for and has found a qualified engineer to help with the study, JM Davidson Engineering DPC. I just had another meeting with them today, Town Supervisor Robert Yates said. The study is being done from 394 to the bridge and is an evaluation plan to take on some of the core issues that we have been working on over the last few years. . The town is inviting as many people as they can to help work on this project and continue the usage of shared services in the town. Yates said it is helping them to learn to work together and forming a strong partnership between the town, the Alliance, and everyone else that is helping them with the study. The bigger plan, Yates said, is to work on the stream banks so they are not sending tons of sediment and nutrients into the lake. This is a piece of the puzzle in working towards a healthier lake, and we are working on it diligently, Yates said. Today's breaking news and more in your inbox.

MANILA, Philippines A partnership on green economy, environmental protection and disaster risk reduction has been discussed by the Philippines and the European Union. Environment Secretary Maria Antonia YuloLoyzaga met with EU Ambassador Luc Veron to discuss a close partnership amid efforts to minimize the impact of climate change. Grateful to DENR Department of Environment and Natural Resources for their sustained efforts in safeguarding the Philippines environment and its natural resources, Veron posted on X, formerly Twitter, after his farewell courtesy call yesterday. Efforts to minimize climate change s impact are gaining headway with the implementation of the National Adaptation Plan NAP and Nationally Determined Contribution Implementation Plan NDCIP, Loyzaga said. Loyzaga is the official representative of President Marcos to the Climate Change Commission. The NAP and its companion measure NDCIP are in full swing, she noted, as local government units are urged to adapt and become resilient. This will ensure that adaptation and mitigation can be embedded across sectors, scales and geographies, she added. Loyzaga has mobilized support for the NAP and NDCIP, particularly in coordinating assistance and investments of development partners and financial institutions to achieve mitigation and adaptation goals. The Philippines is one of 56 countries that have submitted their NAP to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. Support being established with development partners would be aligned with climate action priorities, which include the protection and regeneration of blue and green ecosystems, building climateresilient communities, transition to clean energy, water and food security, responsible and sustainable mineral resource development, investing in gray and green infrastructure, valuegenerating digitalization and creation of more green and blue jobs, Loyzaga said. Citing the President s instruction, she reiterated that the value of the NAP and NDCIP must be translated to the benefit of communities and disseminated among local governments.

Players in the island s construction industry are not expecting the local skilled labour shortage to impact rebuilding efforts as the country recovers from the impact of Hurricane Beryl. While acknowledging that there has been limited assessment of the damage caused by the hurricane, president of the Incorporated Masterbuilders Association of Jamaica, Richard Mullings, is optimistic that the destruction is within the capacity of the local industry to repair. From our checks, we ve not heard of any issue with material supply . We ve had discussions with major suppliers. They say they do have adequate stock for what they expect to be the major issues for rebuilding roofing repairs and so on, he said. Mullings also contends that the country s skilled labour shortage, which Prime Minister Andrew Holness described as a national emergency last year, should not affect rebuilding in the short term. Rather, he said that this issue is of concern in the context of longterm upgrades of Jamaica s infrastructure. He toldThe Gleanerthat natural disasters should serve as a reminder to the Government about the importance of the local industry. He argued that the Government should refrain from rushing to replace or ignore local industry in favour of foreign firms and then being unable to respond when we have a natural disaster . Mullings stated that proper organisation is key to addressing issues that may arise in the redistribution of labour from existing projects to focus on the high demand for skilled labour for recovery efforts. What you find is that companies and skilled labourers may be redistributed from existing projects to deal with sudden shortterm demand, so the capacity is there. We think it s more just a matter of timing and organisation, he said. The option to redistribute labour from major projects is worthwhile and worth thinking through , said Dayton Wood, president of the Jamaica Developers Association. However, he stressed that there could be significant drawbacks to this approach. Suspending major projects comes with a major cost as well because those projects have financing and you are going to increase the cost to get them completed, and then you delay the completion and then there is a snowball effect to that, he toldThe Gleaner. I could imagine that there are instances where that could work for projects that are not timesensitive, so to speak, but clearly for others, that wouldn t work, he added. Further delay, he said, could arise from a shortage in the materials needed for the repairs. I don t think the merchants would have had additional stock, the volume of stuff that they re going to need now. There could be some delay in getting those in. Clearly, there s probably some price implications as well, said Wood. But noting that climate change has made severe weather events more frequent and dangerous, Mullings said a scientific assessment of how construction is done in Jamaica is needed to lessen future damage to infrastructure. However, he acknowledged that adjustments to current building construction processes would incur additional costs. So we can make the roof stormproof, but will the average Jamaican be able to afford a roof? These things also come with some balancing act, he said. In the meantime, Dr Taneisha Ingleton, managing director of HEARTNSTA Trust, said the country s technical and vocational skills training institute is ready to assist with rehabilitation efforts.

. On June 28, 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision inLoper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, overturning the Court s 1984 decision inChevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, which required courts to defer to a federal agency s reasonable interpretation of an ambiguous law. Under the Chevrondoctrine, if Congress had not directly addressed an issue giving rise to a dispute, and a court was asked to review a federal agency s interpretation of a statute, courts were required to uphold the agency s interpretation of the statute as long as that interpretation was reasonable. But inLoper Bright, Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the Court s majority, explained that deference provided under theChevrondoctrine is inconsistent with the Administrative Procedure Act APA , which directs courts to decide legal questions by applying their own judgment and therefore makes clear that agency interpretations of statutes like agency interpretations of the Constitution are not entitled to deference. Justice Roberts concluded that under the APA, it thus remains the responsibility of the court to decide whether the law means what the agency says. . In dissent, Justice Elena Kagan predicted that the Court s ruling will cause a massive shock to the legal system. How does this prediction apply to employers? Although the facts ofLoper Brightwere not workplacerelated, the new decision could have major implications for rules and regulations issued by entities governing workplace regulations, including the U.S. Department of Labor DOL , the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and the National Labor Relations Board NLRB . As Justice Kagan noted, Congress simply cannot write perfectly complete and unambiguous statutes. As a result, there will inevitably be gaps and questions that some other actor either a court or the responsible agency must fill. Federal agencies have relied upon theChevrondoctrine, including very recently, to take action in the labor and employment arena to fill those gaps and expand rules impacting employers. A few examples of such action follow:. These and other rules will be challenged under theLoper Brightdecision. AfterLoper Bright, if a court decides an agency issued a rule that is overbroad or unenforceable, the court has much greater power to strike the rule. Employers can expect to see new cases attacking administrative rulings and courts relying on their expanded power, likely coming to different conclusions in different jurisdictions. Most relevant currently, a Texas federal district court hasalreadyrelied uponLoper Brightin blocking the DOL s 2024 rule raising the minimum salary threshold at which executive, administrative, and professional employees, as well as highly compensated employees, are exempt from overtime pay under the FLSA, holding that the new rule exceeds the DOL s authority under the FLSA.1Notably, that decision only granted a preliminary injunction as to the state of Texas as an employer, but undoubtedly other courts will also rely onLoper Brightin taking similar positions. Employers: understand how and to what extent your workplace practices and policies rely on administrative rules or guidance, and realize there may be lawsuits filed attacking administrative agencies workplace rules. However, the fact courts now have more discretion does not necessarily mean that they will reject administrative agencies current rules and interpretations. Stay tuned and in the meantime, and continue to follow agency regulations and guidance as they are currently in place. 1State of Texas v. United States Dept. of Labor, Civ. No. 4:24CV499SDJ, at 12 13 E.D. Tex. June 28, 2024. See more .

The U.S. Supreme Court overturned the Chevron doctrine in the Loper Bright case, granting courts more power in reviewing federal agency interpretations of statutes. This change could impact workplace regulations by allowing courts to challenge and strike down overbroad or unenforceable rules. Employers should be prepared for potential lawsuits targeting administrative rules affecting their practices.

Police said Bhole Baba was not there in his ashram at Mainpuri. The death toll in Tuesday's stampede in Uttar Pradesh's Hathras touched 121, of which 108 were women. Seven children were also killed in the deadly incident that happened when thousands congregated at a 'satsang' event held by religious preacher Bhole Baba near Phulrai village in the Sikandrarau area. Aligarh Zone Inspector General of Police IG Shalabh Mathur told reporters that 116 people have died in the stampede incident in Hathras. While most of them are from the Hatras district, many victims were from the nearby Etah too. The Uttar Pradesh government said the majority of the bodies of those who died in the stampede have been identified. The bodies have been kept at the government hospital in Hatras. What caused the tragedy?. Authorities said the tragedy was caused due to overcrowding. Uttar Pradesh Chief Secretary Manoj Kumar Singh, who visited the site with state DGP Prashant Kumar, said devotees were running after the vehicle of Baba Narayan Hari, aka Bhole Baba, as he left the venue after the 'satsang'. "Some bent down to collect soil from the venue and fell," Singh said. "There was a race among people running after his Bhole Baba's vehicle. People collect soil from there the path where the baba walked and worship it. As a result, people started bending down and fell," Singh told PTI. Authorities added that though the organisers had sought permission for 80,000 people to attend the 'satsang', but the actual number was much higher. "There has been a lapse on the part of the event organisers," he said. DGP Kumar said it was the subdivisional magistrate who gave permission for the 'satsang' and it is being probed whether the organisers complied with all conditions. "An FIR is being registered and action will be taken against all culprits. As far as the possibility of any administrative lapses is concerned, it will be thoroughly investigated by the ADG Agra Zone and divisional commissioner of Aligarh. The government will take action based on their report that will come in 24 hours," he said. The police are also searching for Bhole Baba. On whether he would be charged and arrested, the DGP said the ambit of the investigation is open. "Right now, everything is a matter of investigation. We do not want to influence the investigation by drawing any immediate conclusion. The ambit of the investigation is open. Action will be taken based on the facts that come to light during the investigation," he said. However, police said they are yet to locate Bhole Baba as he was not inside the campus of Ram Kutir Charitable Trust at Mainpuri. "We did not find Baba inside the campus. He is not here," Deputy SP Sunil Kumar told reporters. CM to visit Hathras today. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is likely to visit Hathras on Wednesday.

Adityanath met with senior officials at his residence on Tuesday and sent ministers Laxmi Narayan Chaudhary, Asim Arun and Sandeep Singh to the spot. The CM also vowed to punish the people responsible and the probe will focus on whether it was an accident or a conspiracy. "This incident took place in Sikandrarao of Hathras district between 3 pm and 3.30 pm. The event of Bhole Baba was organised in the village and the local devotees were participating in it. When the preacher of the satsang was coming down from the stage after the programme was over, a crowd of devotees went towards him.

After 24 years,Ridley Scottis back with a followup toGladiator, and the sequel s new trailer promises bread, circuses, and buckets of blood. Set decades after the events of the first film,Gladiator IIwill tell a new legend about how a nowgrown Lucius Verus Paul Mescal becomes an enslaved gladiator, despite his being the Roman empire s former heir. Though Lucius can vividly recall some moments from his childhood, his memories of his mother Lucilla Connie Nielsen seem to have faded by the time he s crossed paths with power broker Macrinus Denzel Washington. As a man who deals in weapons and warriors, Macrinus can see great potential in Lucius as he watches him take on a rhino in the Coliseum. But as skilled as Lucius is at killing animals, what he truly wants is to take down Rome itself or at least its new leaders, Emperor Geta Joseph Quinn, Emperor Caracalla Fred Hechinger, and General Marcus Acacius Pedro Pascal.

The Congress observed the birth anniversary of its former chief minister YS Rajasekhar Reddy and Revanth Reddy who is also the PCC chief reminded party leaders and workers that Gandhi could have assumed the post of Prime Minister during UPA rule, between 20042014 but was never keen on posts or positions.
