“Don’t Worry Darling” has been in the spotlight since the beginning. And this was long before Harry Styles got involved. It was a film everyone wanted to make — some 18 studios and streaming services were courting Wilde for the chance to partner with her on her sophomore feature as a director: A mid-century psychological thriller about a housewife, Alice (Florence Pugh), who starts to question her picture-perfect life and the mysterious company that her husband Jack (Styles) works for. But it hasn’t stopped making headlines in two years, from Shia LaBeouf’s abrupt departure (he was replaced by Styles) to the paparazzi-stoked intrigue around Wilde and Styles’ off-camera relationship. Then there was the bizarre moment earlier this year when Wilde was served custody papers, from ex Jason Sudeikis with whom she shares two children, in the middle of a presentation to thousands of exhibitors in Las Vegas. Even this past week, LaBeouf, who is heading to court next year on abuse allegations from hi ex, FKA twigs, decided to contest the two-year-old narrative that he’d been fired. He gave the entertainment trade Variety emails and texts to prove his case that he quit. It’s resulted in buzz you can’t buy, but also incessant tabloid and TikTok gossip — all for a film that isn’t even out yet. But soon the conversation will go back to the film itself: “Don’t Worry Darling” will have a glamorous debut at the Venice International Film Festival on Sept. 5 before opening in theaters nationwide on Sept. 23. Besides, Wilde doesn’t care what gets people into the theater — as long as they go. Wilde spoke to The Associated Press recently about her vision, her disagreement with the ratings board and why Alice is the heroine we need right now. Remarks have been edited for clarity and brevity. AP: What were some of the big ideas you wanted to explore? WILDE: I wanted to make what (screenwriter) Katie (Silberman) and I always describe as a Trojan Horse movie: Something that on the outside is beautiful and entertaining but once you crawl inside, it is actually much more complex and potentially really interesting and challenging. I also just really understood that this would be an opportunity for an actress to really flex. It was a heroine I wanted to see on screen. I wanted to create a character with an actress that would represent the kind of woman that I feel like our society needs. AP: You had originally intended to play the part of Alice. Were you glad about that decision to step back and take a supporting role? WILDE: Oh yeah. There’s no part of me that would want it any other way. I think what Florence did with this role is singularly brilliant. This character is a heroine for the ages. And she, as an actress, is this rare combination of dramatically skillful, comedically brilliant and an action hero who can run like Tom Cruise. Like what actress can do stunts and pull off these incredible emotional acrobatics and do it so effortlessly in an accent that’s not even theirs? Like, come on. It’s like juggling upside down on the wing of an airplane. AP: You’ve spoken about some of your stylistic influences, from the photography of Slim Aarons to the erotic thrillers of Adrian Lyne. What were some other touchstones? WILDE: I am a big fan of the iconography of the 1950s and a lot of the art, architecture, cars, music. This was an opportunity to just really play in that world. The architectural influence of (Richard) Neutra is all over the film.(Cinematographer) Matty Libatique and I were really inspired by Alex Prager and her photography and the idea of creating anxiety through framing and this artificial world that would be incredibly alluring until you look very closely. And I always make endless playlists and watch lists and reading lists. It was a really funny assortment of material. People were like, what is this movie? You want me to watch “Requiem for a Dream” and “The Truman Show” and “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes,” and you want me to read “The Feminine Mystique,” but also Jordan Peterson? AP: “Booksmart” dealt with female sexuality in a very frank way and “Don’t Worry Darling” is already provoking conversations around some of the sex acts shown in the trailer. Was that a fight to even include that? WILDE: Oh, yeah. There’s a lot that had to be taken out of the trailer. The MPA came down hard on me and the trailer at the last second and I had to cut some shots, which I was upset about because I thought they it took it up another notch. But of course we still live in a really puritanical society. I do think the lack of eroticism in American film is kind of new. Then when it comes to female pleasure, it’s something that we just don’t see very often unless you’re talking about queer cinema. You know, it’s interesting because in a lot of queer films, the female characters are allowed to have more pleasure. Audiences aren’t as puritanical as corporations think they are. And yet people get upset. I mean, people are upset with me already over this. I think it’s a testament to the film. We want to be provocative. The idea is not to make you feel safe. AP: This is also a film that has had a spotlight on it from the beginning, resulting in both buzz and gossip. What has that been like for you as a filmmaker? WILDE: Every filmmaker longs for people to see their film. That’s all you want is for people to see it. If people are excited about a film, for whatever reason, what you hope is that it gets them in the door. Whether you are a 1950s car fanatic and that’s what’s going to get you into this movie, or if you are simply going because you’re a fan of our incredible cast, all I care about is that you have the chance to see it, and I hope that people then have the instinct to share it. What I really hope is that people see it again. I think that it’s a real second watch film. There’s a lot of Easter eggs in there. —- Follow AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr on Twitter: www.twitter.com/ldbahr	https://www.wfla.com/entertainment-news/ap-entertainment/ap-olivia-wilde-in-the-spotlight-with-dont-worry-darling/	2022-08-31 14:49:55	0	https://www.wfla.com/entertainment-news/ap-entertainment/ap-olivia-wilde-in-the-spotlight-with-dont-worry-darling/
Nearly half of U.S. consumers think lithium-ion EV batteries are NOT recyclable WESTBOROUGH, Mass., Dec. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Electric vehicle battery recycling is a booming industry – and the key to lowering the carbon footprint of EVs – but nearly half of Americans mistakenly believe lithium-ion EV batteries are destined for landfills. A new study commissioned by engineered battery materials company Ascend Elements found that 47% of Americans think EV batteries cannot be recycled. More than one third (37%) of Americans don't understand that recycled lithium-ion battery materials can be used to make new EV batteries. Only 39% of Americans understand that the critical materials in lithium-ion EV batteries can be recycled over and over without performance loss. The study was conducted by an independent research firm to survey a random sample of 1,004 US consumers about their beliefs and attitudes regarding battery technology and electric vehicles. The margin of error for is +/-3% at the 95% confidence level. "We've encountered many myths and misconceptions about electric vehicles and, in particular, EV battery recycling," said Roger Lin, VP of Marketing & Government Relations at Ascend Elements. "The industry has made terrific advances in the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of lithium-ion battery recycling, but these false narratives about EV batteries continue. We are changing that by creating an infrastructure that would make it unthinkable to let a lithium-ion battery go to landfill. They are just too valuable." According to the study, more than half (53%) of Americans say their attitude toward EVs is more positive than it was just three years ago. - 46% say electric vehicles will outsell gasoline-powered cars in their lifetime. - 59% say electric vehicles (EVs) are better for the environment than gas-powered cars. - 59% say electric vehicles will save them money over the lifetime of the vehicle. But many myths and misconceptions remain, including potentially dangerous misunderstandings: - 33% of Americans mistakenly believe lithium-ion batteries can be recycled in the household recycling bin. - More than one quarter of Americans (27%) think it is OK to put used lithium-ion batteries in the household trash. "For the record, lithium-ion batteries should never be put in the trash or the household recycling bin, but these survey responses help explain why we sometimes see fires and explosions in waste management facilities and recycling centers. Used batteries should be dropped off at authorized collection points, many of which can be found at the big box hardware stores," Lin said. He suggests checking the call2recycle.org website to find the nearest drop-off location. Other notable survey findings include: - 40% of US consumers say lithium-ion electric vehicle batteries aren't really "greener" than internal combustion engines. - 50% of US consumers say owning an EV means they'll need to wait in long lines for charging stations. - 53% of US consumers think EVs are more expensive to repair. - 47% of US consumers think too many EVs will overwhelm the power grid. - 41% of US consumers think electric vehicles are too small and slow compared to gas powered cars. - 51% of US consumers say lithium-ion electric vehicle batteries don't offer as much range as internal combustion engines. - 54% of US consumers are concerned about what we will do with all these lithium-ion EV batteries after they reach end of life. - 48% of US consumers think that EVs will cause toxic landfills full of old lithium-ion batteries. - 40% of US consumers say the batteries in electric vehicles are more dangerous than the gasoline in internal combustion engine vehicles. - 38% of US consumers think that lithium-ion electric vehicle batteries are sourced using destructive mining techniques. - 45% of US consumers think the US isn't competitive when it comes to manufacturing lithium-ion electric vehicle batteries. Lin said the survey points to an industry-wide need for improved consumer education and outreach about lithium-ion batteries and battery recycling best practices. An executive summary of the survey results is available for download. Based in Westborough, Mass., Ascend Elements is the leading provider of sustainable, closed-loop battery material solutions. From EV battery recycling to commercial-scale production of lithium-ion battery precursor (pCAM) and cathode active materials (CAM), Ascend Elements is revolutionizing the production of sustainable lithium-ion battery materials.

Aspiring rapper Half Ounce shot and killed while walking in Los Angeles By KCAL/KCBS Staff Click here for updates on this story LOS ANGELES (KCAL, KCBS) — A man was shot and killed late Monday night as he was walking in Koreatown. The shooting happened at about 11:30 p.m. Monday in the 700 block of South New Hampshire Avenue. Officers responding to a report of shots fired at first could not find anyone who had been shot — then the man was found in a planter in front of an apartment complex. The man had suffered gunshot wounds and was unresponsive. He was pronounced dead at the scene, and police have not been released his name. His wife, who came to the scene, identified him as Lataurissha O’Brien, a UPS driver, aspiring rapper, and father of three with one on the way. She said he was known as Half Ounce. Police say the man had been walking on the sidewalk when two people drove up in a vehicle. The passenger got out and fired several times at the man, then jumped back in the vehicle. The suspects were described only as wearing dark clothes and may have driven away south in a dark SUV. One witness said they heard 12 shots. A nearby school was closed for the day due to the investigation. A possible motive for the shooting is not known, and police say have not ruled out whether it was gang related. Anyone with information on the shooting can contact West Bureau homicide investigators at (213) 382-9470. Please note: This content carries a strict local market embargo.

Dolphins earn win over Steelers in Tua Tagovailoa's return Dolphins offense stalled in second half, but they got timely turnovers Tua Tagovailoa's return under center was a success. The Miami Dolphins snapped a three-game losing streak in their 16-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night. On the first drive of the night, and Tagovailoa’s first since suffering a concussion that hospitalized him, the Dolphins went nine plays for 71 drives that ended in a nine-yard pass to Raheem Mostert for the score. The Steelers went three-and-out, and Miami marched again. They got inside the 10, but had to settle for a field goal, and led 10-0 less than 10 minutes into the contest. In the Steelers’ ensuing drive, Kenny Pickett threw an interception – the Dolphins answered with another field goal. In the second quarter, though, the Steelers did manage to make it a three-point game, thanks to a field goal and then a seven-yard touchdown catch by rookie George Pickens, the first of his career. Miami answered back with their third field goal of the night to bring a 16-10 lead into the locker room. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM LIONS' JAMAAL WILLIAMS HITS REFEREE MAKING PENALTY CALL IN HEAD WITH BALL The second half was quite ugly, however – the teams exchanged punts on every drive except three when the Dolphins turned the ball over on downs at the Steelers’ 14-yard line, and two Steelers interceptions (which we'll get to). In their first five drives of the second half, the Steelers punted each time, running just 18 plays for a total of 45 yards. But on their sixth, they were moving. They were able to get to the Dolphins’ 20-yard line, but a holding penalty pushed them back 10 yards, and on 3rd and 16, Pickett threw another interception that was returned past midfield. The Steelers forced a Miami punt, and they had to go 87 yards to keep the game alive. They again managed to move down the field rather quickly, but at the Dolphins 25-yard line, Pickett threw his third interception of the night, sealing the victory for Miami. Tagovailoa completed 21 of his 35 passes for 261 yards and a touchdown. Jaylen Waddle led all receivers with 88 yards on four catches, while Tyreek Hill had seven catches for 72 yards. Pickett's three picks came in a 32-for-44 effort for 257 yards and a touchdown. Pat Freiermuth caught eight balls for 75 yards.

Sharethrough is the first SSP to offer completely net-zero emissions media to brands. MONTREAL, June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sharethrough, one of the top global independent omnichannel ad exchanges, today announced the launch of its first Green Media Product, Green PMPs (Private Marketplaces). Green Media Products measure the emissions from an entire programmatic advertising campaign using Scope3 data and contribute the social cost of carbon to high quality carbon removal projects. In a survey of 1,000 adults across the U.S., Canada and the U.K., 80% stated that they favor brands that are working to reduce their carbon emissions. Sharethrough's Green PMPs provide brands an easy path forward to set and achieve net-zero carbon commitments. Green PMPs connect to the same premium publisher inventory - accounting for carbon while not sacrificing performance. Sharethrough's Green Media Products are measured using Scope3's robust industry data that looks at all of the emissions in an advertiser's supply chain, or Scope 3, emissions. While Scope 3 emissions are more difficult to calculate, it is estimated that they account for 65-95% of a company's total footprint. Sharethrough is the first SSP to use Scope 3 data measurements of the entire supply chain to measure their Green Media Products. The cost of emissions for a Green PMP are calculated and contributed to a portfolio of projects that remove carbon from the atmosphere. Sharethrough partners can now search for Green PMPs directly in their Demand Side Platforms and activate them with the click of a button. They can also work with Sharethrough to create custom Green PMPs across display, video, and native advertisements. Green PMPs can be identified with a green icon which also links users to more information regarding the initiative. "OMD UK are in full support of industry initiatives such as Ad Net Zero, #ChangeTheBrief Alliance and the IPA Media Charter. A significant part of our focus and contribution to these initiatives is through identifying ways to make our business and our clients more environmentally friendly; we are always looking for opportunities that will help us move the needle on our sustainability goals.

"OMD UK is proud to be an anchor partner for this initiative, bringing more awareness and real solutions to the entire digital media ecosystem. We're excited to see the results so we can continue to learn and advance our work in this area as we look to support our own and our clients sustainability ambitions". To put things into perspective, 1 million ad impressions produce the same amount of emissions as one individual round trip flight from Boston to London or the manufacturing of 2.3 million plastic straws. Sharethrough is committed to decarbonizing the $136.74 billion programmatic advertising industry and is proud to announce a solution that allows others to drive change in their own supply chains as well. Cossette Media, a leading Canadian media agency, will be one of the first agencies to transact net-zero emission media on Sharethrough's Green PMPs. "The Green PMP initiative from Sharethrough fits perfectly with Cossette Media's purpose of Making Media Matter and particularly the importance of building a cleaner and more sustainable media ecosystem, " said Axel Dumont, president, Cossette Media.

(NEXSTAR) — Comedian Bill Cosby says he’s planning a comeback comedy tour in 2023, over a year after his sexual assault conviction was overturned — and weeks after five women filed a new sexual assault lawsuit against the fallen star. In a Dec. 28 interview on “WGH Talk,” the 85-year-old Cosby told host Scott Spears he’d be returning to the stage “because there’s so much fun to be had in this storytelling that I do.” Andrew Wyatt, Cosby’s representative, confirmed to Variety that Cosby is “looking at spring/summer” for the potential tour. The former “The Cosby Show” star has been out of prison since June 2021, when the Pennsylvania Supreme Court overturned his 2018 conviction in the drugging and sexual assault of Temple University employee Andrea Constand. The guilty verdict was overturned due to a technicality wherein Cosby had been promised by a then-district attorney he could testify honestly without self-incrimination. According to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, a later district attorney did not uphold this agreement, and Cosby’s testimony was used against him. While Cosby has kept a low profile in the year since the emergence of the new lawsuit earlier this month refocused attention on the actor. As reported by Associated Press, the lawsuit alleges Cosby abused the five plaintiffs between the 1960s and 1990s. Over the summer, a Los Angeles County jury ruled that Cosby sexually abused Judy Huth at the Playboy Mansion when she was 16 years old in 1975. While Cosby denies the allegation, and Wyatt said at that time that they would appeal the verdict, Cosby was ordered to pay Huth $500,000. Cosby told Spears on Dec. 28 he feels he’ll be able to “be the Bill Cosby that my audience knows me to be” going into the tour. The Associated Press contributed to this report.	https://www.ksn.com/entertainment/bill-cosby-says-hes-planning-2023-comedy-tour/	2022-12-29 02:42:51	0	https://www.ksn.com/entertainment/bill-cosby-says-hes-planning-2023-comedy-tour/
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The game scheduled for Friday night between the Tampa Bay Rays and Kansas City Royals was postponed because of rain.

A few years ago, Kimberly Teehee had her family genealogy done, wanting to learn about her Native American roots “pre-removal.” Now, more than 185 years later, Teehee is knocking on doors across Capitol Hill asking to reclaim a part of the 1835 treaty that the Cherokee Nation signed: a seat in Congress. “It’s a very personal story when you consider that my family were forcibly removed,” Teehee, a former Obama administration adviser on tribal issues, said during a recent interview outside a coffee shop three blocks from the Capitol. She would not be a fully vested member of the House of Representatives, but a nonvoting delegate similar to what other U.S. territories and the District of Columbia receive. If approved by the House, the delegate could sit on legislative committees, request meetings with Cabinet officials, push policy positions and even collect narrowly crafted funding projects called earmarks. The 1835 treaty included unequivocal language that a delegate “shall” be included in the House for the Cherokee, a provision that was essentially forgotten as they and other tribes tried to survive and rebuild after forced removal. In recent years, the Cherokee have decided to collect what was promised to them. And all it would take is a resolution passed by the House. The Senate approved the treaty ― by the narrowest of margins, just a single vote — and President Andrew Jackson signed it into law in early 1836. No matter how long ago that was, many in Indian Country and their supporters in Congress believe a treaty is a binding document that must be respected. “A very basic proposition,” said Chuck Hoskin Jr., elected as the Cherokee’s principal chief in 2019. “Should the United States keep its word?” Hoskin prioritized getting the delegate seated soon after his 2019 election as chief, choosing Teehee because of her two decades of work in Congress and the executive branch. The delegate is then ratified by the tribal legislature. While other tribes have somewhat similar language in their treaties, Cherokee leaders believe theirs is the most ironclad, and Teehee wants to be a voice for the millions of Natives scattered across all 50 states. “The honor isn’t about me, it’s about the United States finally upholding an agreement, an agreement that led to so much death and despair in our history, and to give some measure of justice to the past,” she said. This comes as tribes have unprecedented representation in Washington’s power circuit. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland made history as the first Native American Cabinet secretary, and there are six members of tribal nations in the House, including three Republicans. The House Rules Committee, under leadership of Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) and Tom Cole (R-Okla.), a member of the Chickasaw Nation, plans to hold a hearing on the Cherokee delegate debate during the lame duck session after November’s election. With the House majority potentially set to flip, which could require a new round of lobbying to new House leaders, the Cherokee tribe wants a vote before the end of this year. “All that’s left to do is for the House of Representatives to do what the treaty says,” Hoskin said in a recent telephone interview. But, according to Cole, it isn’t that simple. He believes, like Hoskin, that treaties must be upheld. “As an Oklahoman and Native American I certainly don’t have any objection to the Cherokees getting a delegate. That’d be a good thing in a lot of ways,” Cole said. But the implementation opens up several questions that Cole, long considered an institutionalist of the House, isn’t sure will be well-received by other lawmakers. For instance, the House has always been allowed to determine its own representation without interference from the president or Senate. “The House determines its own members. So that’s an interesting question,” Cole said, before noting that Hoskin has appointed Teehee, rather than a direct election of voters like every other member of the House. “The tradition here is everybody’s elected. All the delegates are elected.” Rep. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.), a member of the Cherokee Nation poised to receive a political promotion to the Senate, pointed out that there were three splits within the Cherokee during the 19th century. Many members of the tribe opposed the treaty and stayed to fight, particularly in North Carolina. Mullin wants to consult with those tribes to determine whether they have any claim to the delegate seat in the House. “I really need to know what the angle is, and who’s talking to who, what it is. I’m Cherokee, so yeah, once again, we want to try to be supportive,” Mullin said. Cole also suggested there would be a dual representation issue that might come up, because Cherokee citizens already vote for a representative in whichever congressional district they live in. The other House delegates, such as Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D. C.) and Stacey Plaskett (D-Virgin Islands), represent regions in which no other representative serves in Congress promoting interests of those constituents. “We’re going to try to have a productive hearing where we get different people with different points of view that come in,” Cole said. “And I don’t know where we will come down as a body.” Finishing this up before there’s a change in power would be key, according to supporters of tribal interests. Republicans might view Teehee, who worked for House Democrats in the early 2000s before joining the Obama administration, as a lifelong Democrat whose voice they do not want to amplify. Just one of the six nonvoting delegates, Aumua Amata Radewagen of American Samoa, is a Republican. Hoskin rejected the idea that there’s a partisan tilt to the tribe’s assertion of its delegate rights, noting their long-standing ties to Republicans like Cole, Mullin and Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), who is the ranking minority-party member of the Senate Indian Affairs Committee. “Indian Country issues are unique,” he said. Still, he understands the history: “We have to take the long view. The United States has never handed something over to us easily.” For Hoskin and Teehee, a new Cherokee delegate would serve as a rare moment of pride from the Treaty of New Echota, which gave the Cherokee nation $5 million and land in present-day Oklahoma. Eventually thousands of U.S. soldiers forced the Cherokee west on a dangerous journey in which an estimated 10 percent to 25 percent died. “It’s inescapable that’s where our minds go,” Hoskin said. Teehee views this effort in the most personal of terms, claiming a long forgotten seat of power that came from an act of Congress that led to such horrors. “I just think about the blood, sweat, and tears of my ancestors,” she said. “It would be almost like a full circle moment to, after all those years, to have a connection to that history, to be the delegate that our ancestors died for.”	https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/10/06/cherokee-delegate-seat-congress/	2022-10-06 23:42:19	0	https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/10/06/cherokee-delegate-seat-congress/

Which Christmas tree storage boxes are best? For many, Christmas trees are holiday necessities. However, finding a reliable storage option for your beloved artificial Christmas tree can be difficult once the holiday season has passed. With so many different sizes of trees on the market, it’s important to find a storage box with the space you need without being overly heavy, expensive or hard to store. Finding a storage box that can protect your tree from pests, dust and moisture is even more important. If you are looking for a Christmas tree storage container that is protective, lightweight and easy to store, our top choice is the Rubbermaid Roughneck 50-gallon Storage Box. What to know before you buy a Christmas tree storage box Size With so many artificial Christmas trees on the market, there are a variety of height, width and weight dimensions you need to consider before choosing a Christmas tree storage box. While figuring out the dimensions of your tree, know whether you can take apart your tree. If so, a Christmas storage box with a larger depth capacity may be ideal. If your tree can’t be taken apart, opt for a Christmas tree container that can accommodate the tree’s height. The vast majority of artificial trees can be separated into sections, so boxes only need to accommodate the length of the longest section, as long as they’re deep enough. Construction While most Christmas tree containers utilize a hard plastic construction, some options have a sturdy metal frame under a durable canvas fabric. It’s up to you to decide which is the best option for you. - Plastic: While hard plastic Christmas tree storage boxes are the best option for protecting your tree, they can be harder to move. They’re more durable than canvas and easier to stack in your garage or attic until the next festive season. - Canvas: Canvas tree bags are lighter and more affordable than hard plastic boxes. They tend to have rollable frames, which makes them easier to move. However, they offer significantly less protection for your artificial tree. Durability Whether you are planning on storing your box in an attic, basement or closet, you need to feel confident your box can last under potential exposure to pests, dust or moisture. Typically, hard-plastic storage boxes with lockable lids are the most durable. While checking the durability, check the weight capacity of the box. While your box needs to be durable enough to handle outside elements, you also need to ensure your box can handle a large amount of weight without breaking. Most Christmas tree containers can hold 25-40 pounds of weight. What to look for in a quality Christmas tree storage box Sealable lid With a variety of options on the market, there are Christmas tree storage boxes that come with perfect-fit lock-in lids, latches or lockable lids. Choosing a box with a sturdy, sealable lid is the best way to ensure your tree is protected year-round. Wheels While finding a sturdy Christmas tree container is important, consider how easy your box is to move before purchasing. Since Christmas tree storage boxes are made to carry a lot of weight, they can get pretty heavy. When it comes to ease of transport, the best models are ones that have built-in wheels or handles. How much you can expect to spend on a Christmas tree storage box Expect to spend $50-$200 dollars on a Christmas tree container. Wheeled, high-durability options are more expensive. Christmas tree storage box FAQ How can you store an artificial Christmas tree without taking it apart? A. If you are looking to store your Christmas tree without taking it apart, the best route is to wrap your tree in trash bags, tie the bags securely, then place the tree in a sealable Christmas tree storage box. Using this trick is the best way to keep your tree safe from pests, dust or moisture. However, if you have an average or large Christmas tree, it may be hard to find a box that will accommodate it without taking it apart. In this case, you might have more luck with a tree bag than a storage box. Are Christmas storage boxes or bags better for artificial trees? A. While the choice comes down to your personal preference and storage space, storage boxes have a variety of benefits over tree bags as Christmas tree containers. Christmas tree storage boxes are more rigid than tree bags, making them easier to pack and transport. With sealed tops, Christmas tree storage boxes offer more protection from pests, dust and moisture, making them the worthwhile choice for people looking to keep one tree for multiple years. That said, some people prefer the lightweight design of tree bags and prefer them for their affordability. Using a tree bag for Christmas tree storage is fine as long as you know they’re not as durable. How long should you keep a fake Christmas tree? A. From an environmental perspective, if you want your artificial Christmas tree to have less of an impact on emissions than buying a real tree each year, aim to keep it for at least 10 years. Of course, it’s up to you how long you keep your fake tree, but a quality one is a considerable expense, so it makes sense to keep it for as long as possible. If you take care of your artificial tree and store it carefully between uses, it can easily last 10-20 years in good condition. This is where it pays to buy a quality Christmas tree container.

TRAVERSE CITY — Long Lake Township resident John Merlo said he doesn’t receive mail every day. He and Peninsula Township resident Pat Weber aid they’ve heard the same complaints from neighbors and people in their communities — no one is getting their mail consistently. “I can go one day or two days without getting mail delivered,” Merlo said. “And sometimes the mail doesn’t get delivered until after 6 o’clock at night.” Weber said sometimes she doesn’t get her mail until after 7 p.m. The USPS brand hosted a job fair at its downtown and Barlow Street locations to try and make up for staffing shortages, officials said. The goal is to inspire people to apply for carrier positions in the area, U.S. Post Office Operations Manager Carole Singer said. Singer has worked for the postal service for the past 32 years. “We are desperately seeking people,” she said. “We want to make sure that we have a full staff for the holidays, which we call a peak season.” During the holidays, data from the U.S. Postal Service shows that the amount of packages it processes nearly doubles. “We can get 30 pallets of packages regularly here,” Singer said, gesturing to the front of the post office. “However, during peak season we can easily get 60 to 70 pallets of packages, and that’s just from one company — that’s not including the rest.” Since the start of the pandemic, Traverse City has been down from seven to 15 carriers between the two locations in town, but Singer said that is not unique. “It’s not just us, it’s everybody in the area,” she remarked. “It’s everyone in the 496 area, which is the Up North ZIP code, ‘cause everybody needs help, it’s not just Traverse.” “Traverse is just a little bit worse off,” she said. “That’s why we need more help here.” Both Fife Lake and Kingsley are holding similar job fairs in the coming weeks to address the same staffing challenges, Singer said. With between three to four retirements over the past year and cases of COVID-19, Singer said they have struggled to keep a full staff, a dilemma that is affecting other businesses in the Traverse City area — and elsewhere. As election season begins, both Weber and Merlo said that they plan on dropping their absentee ballots off at their respective township halls to make sure they get in on time. Grand Traverse County Clerk Bonnie Scheele said that they have already received absentee ballots in the mail from voters, and that the postal service knows to prioritize them. “As far as I know, there’s no issue with absentee [ballots] going out right now,” Scheele said. She estimates that approximately 50 percent of voters in the area will utilize mail-in ballots during this year’s midterm election. At the end of July, Traverse City hired a new postmaster from Montana, who Singer said has prioritized trying to onboard more carriers and raise retention rates. Some of the positions Singer said they are looking to fill include a rural carrier associate, city carrier associate, a clerk position and a part-time associate carrier position just for delivering packages on Sundays.	https://www.record-eagle.com/news/local_news/delivery-dilemma-u-s-postal-office-struggles-to-hire/article_d4c14a32-4414-11ed-96d1-d3014adcd9d3.html	2022-10-17 12:27:57	0	https://www.record-eagle.com/news/local_news/delivery-dilemma-u-s-postal-office-struggles-to-hire/article_d4c14a32-4414-11ed-96d1-d3014adcd9d3.html
DOHA, Qatar — The U.S. men's team tied England in a scoreless game at the World Cup on Friday. Considering the British team is among the favorites to win the entire tournament, it's an impressive performance from Team USA, which debuted one of its youngest World Cup teams ever in its return this year after failing to qualify for the tournament in 2018. Despite England's vastly superior World Cup record, the U.S. men's team has never lost to England in the tournament. England, though, missed a chance for redemption this game, after the team's famous upset loss against the Americans in 1950. As the final whistle blew — after four minutes of added time — boos echoed throughout Qatar's Al Bayt Stadium from fans likely disappointed without a definitive result. The United States, now with two points after two tied games, stands in third place in Group B behind England with four points and Iran, with three points. Wales has 1 point. England's 6-2 win over the Iranians in the teams' first group match should give the Americans confidence heading into its turn with Iran next week. "We're proud but our work's not done," U.S. coach Gregg Berhalter said in postgame interview on Fox. "We have to win on Tuesday. We know five points gets us in. We've got to focus on the five points." To stay in the tournament and reach the knockout stage, the U.S. will have to beat Iran, which pulled off a surprising 2-0 victory earlier in the day. England faces off with Wales next. Both games will be at 2 p.m. ET on Tuesday. Tom Goldman reported from Doha, Qatar, and Emma Bowman reported from Los Angeles. Copyright 2022 NPR.

ABUJA, Nigeria (AP) — No one in Godgift Inemesit’s family of eight is sure when they will eat each day — except for her three kids, two of whom have malaria. She can't pay for the drugs they need or feed the rest of her family regularly. Like most Nigerians, the family's savings are trapped in the bank. A changeover to redesigned currency has plunged Africa's largest economy into crisis just ahead of a presidential election: There aren't enough new banknotes in a country reliant on cash. For Inemesit, 28, the shortage of cash means even basics like food and medicine are getting trimmed for her husband, mother, kids ages 4 to 8 and two other relatives. One recent afternoon, only the children had gotten bread and hot drinks. “We usually eat three square meals, but now we eat once sometimes because there is no money to use,” Inemesit said in her house in Banana village, an overcrowded shanty town tucked in the southern corner of the Nigerian capital of Abuja. “We were told to drop the old currency (notes) in the bank and that new one is coming," she said. “But we don’t have the new currency and no old currency. Everything is just tough.” Customers are waiting all day at banks and ATMs to withdraw only enough money — called naira — to last a day. Fights have broken out in bank halls, angry customers have attacked workers and protesters have set financial institutions on fire. Businesses unable carry out transactions have been forced to close, and people are illegally selling new currency notes at higher rates. As people become more desperate for cash, the impact is likely to spill into the Feb. 25 presidential election. Nigerians hope to elect someone to fix challenges ranging from a security crisis that has killed thousands in the past year to an ailing economy. The shortage of currency "has already created significant hardship, which could make a greater number of voters vulnerable to vote-buying and ratchet up election tensions even further," said the International Crisis Group, which works to prevent conflict. Facing increasing pressure to find a solution, President Muhammadu Buhari, who has reached his term limits and leaves office in May, said he directed the Central Bank of Nigeria to "deploy all legitimate resources and legal means" to ensure people "enjoy easy access to cash withdrawal." “I am deeply pained and sincerely sympathize with you all over these unintended outcomes,” he said, while still defending the changes. Experts blame policymakers for a "rushed" introduction of the new naira notes. Central bank leader Godwin Emefiele argued that some government officials are "buying the new notes and storing them for whatever purposes." The central bank has said the revamped currency would help curb money laundering before the election, transform the West African nation into a cashless economy and fight inflation of over 21%, a 17-year high. Inemesit said she — like many others — have started losing interest in the election, dampening hopes of increased voter participation after years of steady decline in turnout. She voted in 2019 when only 34% of registered voters cast their ballot for president. But as this year’s election draws closer, her vote and hopes for a better country have been dashed. “With what we are facing now, I don’t have the aim of voting again. When you don’t have the strength to walk to where they are voting, how will you be able to vote?” she said. The cash shortages have made life even more difficult in Nigeria, where 63% of the population is poor, 33% is unemployed and as of 2021, only 45% of adults had a bank account, according to the World Bank. The crisis has added to the woes of surging inflation and a weakened currency. The three top contenders in the presidential race have made pledges to deliver democratic change to Nigerians. The ruling party's Bola Tinubu has said he is seeking to "renew hope," while the main opposition party's Atiku Abubakar wants to "rescue" Nigeria. The Labour Party's Peter Obi — who leads the crowded field in recent polls — has p romised to "rebuild" the country. Lack of access to cash has affected consumption patterns and trade for small and medium businesses in the informal sector, a major employer that includes farming, street and market trade, and public transport, said Joachim MacEbong, a senior governance analyst at Stears, a Nigerian intelligence company. The central bank’s yearslong push to make the economy cashless led digital transactions to increase 150% last year. However, unreliable digital payment platforms have forced many businesses to use paper naira. “The cost of denying people access to cash far outweighs any benefit,” MacEbong said. At ATMs, people are making choices they never would have imagined: Sunny Eze, a father of two, was hungry but was saving the little money on him for transportation if he couldn't get cash. Esther Ugonna waited for about 10 hours to withdraw 10,000 naira ($22). Nasir Yusuf closed his shop for the day, devoting his time to trying to withdraw cash he needed. Inemesit, meanwhile, waited in line until 8 p.m. one day last week and returned home empty-handed. Like dozens of others, she was told the bank branch had run out of new banknotes. “If someone were to tell me that I can have the money but I cannot make use of the money, I would not believe it,” she said, frustrated and downcast. With her 1.7 million naira ($3,680) in the bank, “you have the money, but you cannot see it.” The family’s income from selling bags such as luggage and backpacks has fallen drastically as Nigerians with little cash on hand are prioritizing food over other needs. “People will not leave feeding their family to come and buy bags,” she said. The crisis has left Inemesit too tired and frustrated to think of the upcoming presidential vote. “The government failed us very well. They disappointed us,” she said, grabbing her 4-year-old who was coughing incessantly. “Things are difficult and everything has been increasing prices.” Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP Credit: AP	https://www.springfieldnewssun.com/nation-world/nigerian-cash-crisis-brings-pain-everything-is-just-tough/DDHCKAAXB5B7JA2TNGFOVYJYWA/	2023-02-18 09:38:51	0	https://www.springfieldnewssun.com/nation-world/nigerian-cash-crisis-brings-pain-everything-is-just-tough/DDHCKAAXB5B7JA2TNGFOVYJYWA/

Virgin Galactic plans its next commercial flight to the edge of space for August ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Virgin Galactic is aiming for early August for its next flight to the edge of space, a trip that is expected to include the first of many ticket holders who have been waiting years for their chance at weightlessness aboard the company’s rocket-powered plane. The company announced Thursday that the window for the commercial flight from Spaceport America in southern New Mexico will open Aug. 10. The short up-and-down flight will be streamed live on Virgin Galactic’s website. Virgin Galactic confirmed that three private passengers will be on the flight. The plane has room for six — two Virgin Galactic pilots and four passengers. Hundreds of people have purchased tickets over the years, including celebrities, scientists and entrepreneurs. The company is expected to release more details about the crew and three passengers next week. The flight will mark Virgin Galactic’s third this year. The most recent was in June — a research flight during which two Italian Air Force officers and an engineer with the National Research Council of Italy conducted a series of microgravity experiments during their moments of weightlessness. Virgin Galactic has been working for more than a decade to send paying passengers on short space hops and in 2021 finally won the federal government’s approval. Founder Richard Branson joined Virgin Galactic employees for the first flight that summer. It usually takes about an hour for the mother ship to carry the plane to an altitude where it is released and fires its rocket motor to make the final push to the edge of space. Once they reach their highest point, passengers can unstrap from their seats, float around the cabin for a few minutes and take in views of the Earth. Then they strap in for the glide back down to the runway. Virgin Galactic plans to fly monthly from its outpost in the New Mexico desert. Copyright 2023 The Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Chemical fertilizers derived from fossil fuels ("fossil fertilizers") are an underrecognized driver of climate change, biodiversity loss, and toxic pollution, yet the fertilizer industry increasingly portrays itself as part of the solution to these converging planetary crises. Together with oil and gas companies, agrochemical producers are promoting carbon capture and storage (CCS) and fossil fuel-derived hydrogen and ammonia to secure additional revenue streams for business-as-usual production. A new report from the Center for International Environmental Law (CIEL) reveals how these trends risk deepening reliance on fossil fuels and industrial agriculture precisely when they need to be phased out. This new business model extends the fossil economy in the midst of a climate emergency pushing the world further past planetary boundaries to the detriment of ecosystems and human rights. The report finds: - Fossil fertilizers have significant climate impacts along their life entire cycle. - Rather than reduce reliance on these chemicals and transition away from the fossil economy, fertilizer companies are promoting the use of CCS to make fossil gas-based hydrogen and ammonia as inputs for industrial agriculture and combustible fuels. - These risky technologies prolong reliance on fossil fuels on the myth that they can be made "low carbon," entrenching dependence on oil and gas and propping up polluting industries, increasing harm to people and the planet. - Efforts to remake fertilizer businesses as "clean energy companies" greenwash polluting operations, cash in on generous government subsidies, and expand market access. - Companies are operating or actively exploring dozens of production facilities in at least nine countries, including eight US states already affected by polluting industries. - Connections and ties between the two industries, including shared board members, overlapping corporate ownership structures, or agrochemical companies' direct engagement in fossil fuel production dangerously tethers food systems to the fossil economy. Steven Feit, report co-author, said "Fossil fertilizers are both a key target for oil production and the leading edge of the fossil fuel-enabling schemes. The combination of CCS, blue hydrogen, and blue ammonia at the heart of expansion plans threaten to impede climate action while entrenching polluting industries and undermining food sovereignty. Governments and the public should see through the greenwashing and take action to close these escape hatches. Anything else will prolong the inevitable and necessary transition from the fossil economy." Lili Fuhr, report co-author said, "Fossil fertilizers enable a corporate-controlled model for industrial agriculture that pushes monocultures and high-yields while sending humanity hurtling toward dangerously risky territory. Like carbon in the atmosphere and microplastics in our soils and waters: fossil fertilizers and pesticides are fossil fuel pollution. Untethering food production from them is essential for advancing climate justice and food sovereignty. We need to close the oil and gas tab for the agrochemical industry if we truly want to scale up resilient, regenerative models of food production so ecosystems and communities can thrive."

Another Montclair University, NJ student faces child porn charge For the second time in two days, law enforcement have announced child pornography-related charges against a Montclair State University student. A 21-year-old Union County man was arrested and charged with distributing images of child sexual abuse, according to U.S. Attorney Philip Sellinger on Tuesday. Sean Lynch, of Summit, appeared in Newark federal court and was released on $100,000 unsecured bond. He was subject to home detention and electronic monitoring. Lynch was charged with distribution of child pornography, stemming from the use of an instant messaging mobile application to share 72 videos depicting the sexual abuse of children, Sellinger said. If convicted, he would face between five and 20 years in prison and a fine of $250,000. Sellinger credited special agents of the U.S. Secret Service with the investigation leading to the charges, with assistance from Montclair State University Police and State Police. Keyon Luff accused of 'catfishing' minors and getting them to send sexually explicit videos On Monday, criminal charges were announced against a different 21-year-old student at Montclair State University — which spans parts of Essex and Passaic Counties. Keyon Luff, of Edgewater Park, was arrested on May 3 after state and campus authorities searched his dorm room at the school. Luff has been accused of engaging in sexually explicit conversations with children online and getting them to send recorded videos of sex acts. He was charged with endangering the welfare of a child stemming from manufacturing and possession of child sexual abuse materials — as well as second-degree sexual assault and third-degree impersonation.

VIN'S PEOPLE: Manatee School District inviting volunteers for book-vetting process When young Jayden took his seat recently in the kindergarten classroom at Oneco Elementary he knew something wasn’t right. The nearby book case was empty. “What did you do with my books?” his teacher recalled him asking. I read with Jayden weekly in the Books for Kids program and his reaction probably mirrored that of many schoolchildren around the Manatee School District after teachers removed books or covered up materials in their classroom libraries that have not been vetted in accordance with state law. Well, how would you like to help get books vetted and back on those shelves? The school district is seeking volunteers for this process. Folks can visit manateeschools.net/volunteer to complete an application. Once notified the application is approved – or if you are already registered with the district as a volunteer – you can email jordand2@manateeschools.net and request the link to the Sign-Up Genius website, which lists schools needing assistance. Volunteers will not be asked to review books, per se, but will receive directions at the school for helping catalog books for a list. Let’s do this and get those books back for kids like Jayden. · Coach Steve Olsen is 81 years young. · That’s four years of wedded bliss for ABC7 news anchor Rebecca Vargas and Braden River High head football coach Curt Bradley.

MANTENO, Ill. (AP) — A COVID-19 outbreak at a state-run veterans home in northeastern Illinois has spread to 22 residents and staff members, a state agency said. The Illinois Department of Veterans’ Affairs said Wednesday that 16 residents and six staff members have tested positive for COVID-19 at the Illinois Veterans’ Home at Manteno, about 50 miles (80.5 kilometers) south of Chicago, and the majority of the residents have shown no symptoms. However, a “small number” of residents are showing mild symptoms, the department said. One resident who had already been under hospice care “and completely asymptomatic” died Wednesday morning, hours after testing positive for the virus and getting a booster shot, officials said. “All the residents who have tested positive have received at least two doses of the vaccine and 15 are up to date with their boosters," the department said in a statement. The residents who tested positive are now in isolation at the home and are being closely monitored by staff, it said. Communal dining and activities have also been curtailed until the outbreak ends. The facility's COVID-19 outbreak comes about a month after Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s administration was criticized by the state auditor general for its handling of a November 2020 coronavirus outbreak that killed 36 military veterans at the LaSalle Veterans’ Home. A state audit blamed sluggishness, poor compliance with existing rules and other factors in the administration's response to that outbreak.	https://www.ourmidland.com/news/article/Illinois-reports-COVID-19-outbreak-at-Manteno-17246794.php	2022-06-16 20:51:19	1	https://www.ourmidland.com/news/article/Illinois-reports-COVID-19-outbreak-at-Manteno-17246794.php

SPX FLOW's HWS50 and HWS100 oil-water separators remove all lubricants from condensate CHARLOTTE, N.C., Oct. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- SPX FLOW, Inc., a leading provider of process solutions for the industrial, and nutrition & health markets, now offers the latest oil-water separators from trusted compressed air brands Hankison and Deltech, part of the company's portfolio of solutions, that extract lubricants from condensate more efficiently and effectively than ever before. The 75 to 3000 ACFM (actual cubic feet per minute) series and smaller 50 to 100 ACFM series offer unmatched performance to the broad range of end-users that rely on compressed air every day, including those in the manufacturing, automotive, food and beverage, and healthcare industries. Other oil-water separators typically remove only oil from the condensate discharge of compressed air machines. Yet, Hankison's newest model removes all compressor-based lubricants, including silicone, polyalkylene glycol (PAGs), and food grades, making the discharge water cleaner. In turn, discharge meets or exceeds environmental regulations for disposal. "The Hankison brand — and SPX FLOW as a whole — is committed to ongoing solutions and innovations to help businesses and their equipment perform at their peak," said SPX FLOW's Global Product Manager for Dehydration, Chris Spainhower. "The newest HWS series helps provide a cleaner byproduct, which not only helps our customers but results in a better, more eco-friendly result all around. It's a win-win." The Hankison and Deltech brands offer trust and quality with its products. All HWS products are pre-plumbed and leak-tested. When properly sized, installed and registered, the HWS systems are guaranteed to reduce contaminants in compressor condensate to 10 ppm or less for the unit's life. Hankison's HWS series is also flexible for various uses and conditions. A single oil-water separator supports up to six simultaneously connected compressors or downstream components. Additionally, units are maintenance-free — with no bag change-outs needed — giving customers peace of mind. "Flexibility lets businesses use their equipment when, where and how they need it," Spainhower said. "It's about finding the best way the HWS unit can fit each and every customer's specific needs." Premium features include: - Condensate inlet hub, which allows users to replace caps with supplied push-to-connect fittings and insert compressor lines - Specialized vent to enable pressure to decompress, preventing airlocks - Outlet ensuring only 10 ppm or less of filtered condensate exits to sanitary or floor drain To learn more about Hankison's 75 to 3000 ACFM series and 50 to 100 ACFM series, visit: https://www.spxflow.com/hankison/products/hws-hws-micro-series-oil-water-separators/ About SPX FLOW, Inc.

(NASDAQ: VRTS) today reported financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Earnings Summary The company presents U.S. GAAP and non-GAAP earnings information in this release. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented reflect the company's operating results from providing investment management and related services to individuals and institutions and uses these measures to evaluate financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures have material limitations and should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures can be found beginning on page 10 of this earnings release. Total assets under management of $155.4 billion at June 30, 2022 compared with $183.3 billion at March 31, 2022. The decline reflected market performance and net outflows in open-end funds and retail separate accounts, partially offset by positive net flows in institutional. In addition, other fee earning assets of $3.0 billion compared with $3.5 billion at March 31, 2022. Total sales of $7.9 billion compared with $9.4 billion in the prior quarter as lower retail demand, impacted by market sentiment, was partially offset by strong growth in institutional sales to their highest quarterly level. Open-end fund sales of $3.1 billion compared with $5.0 billion, with lower sales across most strategies. Retail separate account sales of $1.3 billion compared with $2.0 billion. Institutional sales of $3.5 billion increased 41% from $2.4 billion and included meaningful new mandates and additional flows in existing mandates at multiple affiliates and across investment strategies. Net flows were ($4.8) billion as positive net flows in institutional were more than offset by open-end fund and retail separate account net outflows. Institutional net flows of $0.4 billion included global real estate, global equity, and domestic equity mandates. Open-end fund net flows of ($4.5) billion compared with ($3.4) billion in the prior quarter, with higher net outflows particularly in bank loan strategies. Retail separate account net outflows of ($0.7) billion compared with positive net flows of $0.6 billion in the prior quarter and were due to net outflows in domestic small cap strategies in the intermediary sold channel. Operating income of $56.7 million declined from $65.6 million in the prior quarter due to an 11% decrease in total revenues partially offset by a 10% decrease in total operating expenses. Revenues declined primarily due to lower average assets under management as a result of market performance and net outflows. The decrease in operating expenses included lower employment expenses, which declined due to prior-quarter seasonal items and lower variable incentive compensation, as well as lower distribution and other asset-based expenses. Net income attributable to Virtus Investment Partners, Inc. of $2.29 per diluted common share included ($4.11) of realized and unrealized losses on investments and ($0.28) of fair value adjustments to contingent consideration, partially offset by $0.51 of fair value adjustments to affiliate noncontrolling interests. Net income per diluted share in the prior quarter of $4.22 included ($1.97) of realized and unrealized losses on investments, ($0.61) of acquisition and integration costs, and ($0.57) of fair value adjustments to affiliate noncontrolling interests. The fair value adjustments to affiliate noncontrolling interests and contingent consideration reflected changes in the value of the affiliate and transaction earn-out payments, respectively. The effective tax rate during the quarter of 54% compared with 30% in the prior quarter, primarily reflecting changes in the valuation allowances related to marketable securities. Revenues, as adjusted, of $199.0 million declined from $221.9 million in the prior quarter as market performance and net outflows resulted in lower average assets under management. Employment expenses, as adjusted, of $89.1 million decreased from $101.6 million due to prior-quarter seasonal items and lower variable incentive compensation. Other operating expenses, as adjusted, of $31.0 million increased sequentially from $29.3 million due to higher travel and related expenses and the annual equity grants to the Board of Directors of $0.8 million. Operating income, as adjusted, of $78.0 million and the related margin of 39.2% compared with $90.1 million and 40.6%, respectively, primarily due to lower investment management fees, partially offset by the impact of seasonal employment items in the prior quarter. Net income attributable to Virtus Investment Partners, Inc., as adjusted, per diluted common share was $6.86, a decrease of $1.01, or 13%, from $7.87 in the prior quarter. The decline primarily reflected lower investment management fees due to the lower average assets under management. The effective tax rate, as adjusted, of 27% was unchanged from the prior quarter. Working capital of $185.4 million at June 30, 2022 decreased from $196.1 million at March 31, 2022 primarily due to return of capital to shareholders and debt repayment, largely offset by earnings. During the quarter, the company returned $40.0 million to shareholders through the repurchase of 221,903 shares of common stock, reducing basic shares outstanding by 2.6%. The company reduced gross debt in the quarter by $10.7 million to $262.9 million and ended the quarter in a net debt position of $12.4 million.

Additional information about our firm, investment partners, and strategies is available at virtus.com. Non-GAAP Information and Reconciliations (in thousands except per share data) The non-GAAP financial measures included in this release differ from financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP as a result of the reclassification of certain income statement items, as well as the exclusion of certain expenses and other items that are not reflective of the earnings generated from providing investment management and related services. Non-GAAP financial measures have material limitations and should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures. The following are reconciliations and related notes of the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure to each non-GAAP measure: Reclassifications: 1. Consolidated investment products - Revenues and expenses generated by operating activities of mutual funds and CLOs that are consolidated in the financial statements. Management believes that excluding these operating activities to reflect net revenues and expenses of the company prior to the consolidation of these products is consistent with the approach of reflecting its operating results from managing third-party client assets. Other Adjustments: Revenue Related 2. Investment management/Distribution and service fees - Each of these revenue line items is reduced to exclude fees passed through to third-party client intermediaries who own the retail client relationship and are responsible for distributing the product and servicing the client. The amount of fees fluctuates each period, based on a predetermined percentage of the value of assets under management, and varies based on the type of investment product. The specific adjustments are as follows: Investment management fees - Based on specific agreements, the portion of investment management fees passed-through to third-party intermediaries for services to investors in sponsored investment products. Distribution and service fees - Based on distinct arrangements, fees collected by the company then passed-through to third-party client intermediaries for services to investors in sponsored investment products. The adjustment represents all of the company's distribution and service fees that are recorded as a separate line item on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Management believes that making these adjustments aids in comparing the company's operating results with other asset management firms that do not utilize third-party client intermediaries. Expense Related 3. Distribution and other asset-based expenses - Primarily payments to third-party client intermediaries for providing services to investors in sponsored investment products. Management believes that making this adjustment aids in comparing the company's operating results with other asset management firms that do not utilize third-party client intermediaries. 4. Amortization of intangible assets - Non-cash amortization expense or impairment expense, if any, attributable to acquisition-related intangible assets, including any portion that is allocated to noncontrolling interests. Management believes that making this adjustment aids in comparing the company's operating results with other asset management firms that have not engaged in acquisitions. 5. Acquisition and integration expenses - Expenses that are directly related to acquisition and integration activities. Acquisition expenses include transaction closing costs, change in fair value of contingent consideration, certain professional fees, and financing fees. Integration expenses include costs incurred that are directly attributable to combining businesses, including compensation, restructuring and severance charges, professional fees, consulting fees, and other expenses. Management believes that making these adjustments aids in comparing the company's operating results with other asset management firms that have not engaged in acquisitions. Components of Acquisition and Integration Expenses for the respective periods are shown below: 6. Other - Certain expenses that are not reflective of the ongoing earnings generation of the business. Employment expenses and noncontrolling interests are adjusted for fair value measurements of affiliate minority interests. Other operating expenses are adjusted for non-capitalized debt issuance costs. Interest expense is adjusted to remove gains on early extinguishment of debt and the write-off of previously capitalized costs associated with the modification of debt. Income tax expense (benefit) items are adjusted for uncertain tax positions, changes in tax law, valuation allowances, and other unusual or infrequent items not related to current operating results to reflect a normalized effective rate. Management believes that making these adjustments aids in comparing the company's operating results with prior periods. Components of Other for the respective periods are shown below: Seed Capital and CLO Related 7. Seed capital and CLO investments (gains) losses - Gains and losses (realized and unrealized) of seed capital and CLO investments. Gains and losses (realized and unrealized) generated by investments in seed capital and CLO investments can vary significantly from period to period and do not reflect the company's operating results from providing investment management and related services. Management believes that making this adjustment aids in comparing the company's operating results with prior periods and with other asset management firms that do not have meaningful seed capital and CLO investments. Definitions: Revenues, as adjusted, comprise the fee revenues paid by clients for investment management and related services. Revenues, as adjusted, for purposes of calculating net income attributable to Virtus Investment Partners, Inc., as adjusted, differ from U.S. GAAP, namely in excluding the impact of operating activities of consolidated investment products and reduced to exclude fees passed through to third-party client intermediaries who own the retail client relationship and are responsible for distributing the product and servicing the client. Operating expenses, as adjusted, is calculated to reflect expenses from ongoing continuing operations. Operating expenses, as adjusted, for purposes of calculating net income attributable to Virtus Investment Partners, Inc., as adjusted, differ from U.S. GAAP expenses in that they exclude amortization or impairment, if any, of intangible assets, restructuring and severance, the effect of consolidated investment products, acquisition and integration-related expenses and certain other expenses that do not reflect the ongoing earnings generation of the business. Operating margin, as adjusted, is a metric used to evaluate efficiency represented by operating income, as adjusted, divided by revenues, as adjusted. Earnings (loss) per share, as adjusted, represent net income (loss) attributable to Virtus Investment Partners, Inc., as adjusted, divided by weighted average shares outstanding, as adjusted, on either a basic or diluted basis.

Jeremiah Green, Modest Mouse drummer, dead at 45 NEW YORK (AP) — Jeremiah Green, the founding drummer for the rock band Modest Mouse, has died just days after the band announced he had been diagnosed with cancer. He was 45. “Today we lost our dear friend Jeremiah. He laid down to rest and simply faded out,” according to a statement posted Saturday on the band’s social media accounts. “Please appreciate all the love you give, get, have given, and will get. Above all, Jeremiah was about love.” Green was barely in his teens when he joined the newly formed Modest Mouse, which featured singer-guitarist Isaac Brock and bassist Eric Judy among others. Modest Mouse was originally based in the Seattle suburb Issaquah and later relocated to Portland. Its name originates from a passage by Virginia Woolf, who once described everyday individuals as “modest mouse-coloured people.” Influenced by Talking Heads and XTC among others, Modest Mouse debuted in 1996 with the album “This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About” and built a substantial critical following before having mainstream success with their fourth release, “Good News for People Who Love Bad News,” and the singles “Float On” and “Ocean Breathes Salty.” Green had a breakdown around the time of “Good News for People Who Love Bad News,” released in 2004, and briefly left the band. He was back for more recent albums, including “Strangers to Ourselves” and “The Golden Casket,” which came out in 2021. Copyright 2023 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Rapper Young Dolph was shot and killed on Nov. 17 at a South Memphis cookie shop, shocking not only the Memphis community, but fans all over the country. Young Dolph, whose real name is Adolph Thornton Jr., was originally born in Chicago in 1985. He moved to Memphis at the age of two and grew up in the Castalia Heights neighborhood in South Memphis. He was a graduate of Hamilton High School in Memphis. He became one of the school’s most notable alumni when he rose to stardom after he released his mixtape Welcome to Dolph World in 2011. He is known for owning the music label Paper Route Empire, commonly known as PRE, which includes artists Key Glock and Big Moochie. In 2016, he released his debut album King of Memphis, which some would say was a jab at Memphis rapper Yo Gotti who had previously claimed that title. The two rappers had been at odds years prior and were very vocal about it, stating that it stemmed before Dolph’s fame. In 2017, Young Dolph was shot at on two separate occasions related to the beef. In one of those incidents, Dolph’s SUV was shot over 100 times. Following the incidents, Dolph released his second studio album Bulletproof with the single “100 Shots” as a response. Dolph’s highest charting project, Rich Slave, was released in 2020, which debuted at #4 on Billboard 200. The proud South Memphian had fans all over the country, but it was his hometown fans whom he loved the most. He gave back to his community often. He and his label hosted a turkey giveaway in Memphis on Nov. 15, just two days before his passing. This wasn’t the first time he held an event like this. He held a similar event in 2018, returning to the neighborhood he grew up in to hand out turkeys before Thanksgiving. While he was there, he talked to dozens of children with the Memphis Athletics Ministry and touched on the importance of academics, preparing for life after high school and entrepreneurship. While he was on tour last year, he stopped by his alma mater and donated $25,000 to the school for new sports equipment and supplies. The 36-year-old will leave behind two children.	https://phl17.com/national-news/who-is-young-dolph-rapper-killed-in-memphis-shooting-2/	2022-07-05 17:28:46	0	https://phl17.com/national-news/who-is-young-dolph-rapper-killed-in-memphis-shooting-2/
