Church gifts 25m property to Malta Trust Foundation to create empowerment hub for disabled youngsters. The imposing Dar Saura in Rabat will be converted into an empowerment hub for children and young people with disabilities after the Archdiocese of Malta handed over the multimillioneuro property to The Malta Trust Foundation for 65 years. The Archdiocese s decision to hand over the property, worth 25 million and covering an expanse of 5,500 square metres, was sealed today during a signing ceremony held in the presence of Archbishop Charles J. Scicluna and The Malta Trust Foundation chair MarieLouise Coleiro Preca. The best use of Church property is when it is destined for a social purpose, especially helping those who need the most support. I hope that through the leadership of The Malta Trust Foundation, Dar Saura will become a stateoftheart hub empowering children and youth with disabilities to engage with their skills and discover and nurture their full potential through music and the arts, the Archbishop said. The property, which will cost about 10 million to convert, can be renovated to accommodate a variety of activities without adversely affecting its Class A status. Coleiro Preca described the agreement as a historic moment that would position Malta as a hub in the Mediterranean for young people, who as a consequence of their disadvantaged background or disability struggled to develop their potential. This is a landmark agreement and we are deeply moved by the Church s gracious gesture. My dream is to see this hub become a onestopshop for families to see their children with disabilities thrive; a place where they can grow, develop their abilities and be empowered to go out into the world. This will demonstrate that every one of God's creations has a purpose, Coleiro Preca said. When the Ta Saura Empowerment Hub opens in two years, it will be able to provide a safe space for up to 500 children and young people who under expert guidance can explore the therapeutic power of music, dance and the arts. The property s extensive land will also allow the Foundation to create an occupational therapeutic centre, a social enterprise, multipurpose halls for training, a petting farm, and a multisensory room. Eventually, the plan is to provide studio apartments to house foreign music therapists and professionals working at the hub, as well as space for workshops. A cafeteria and restaurant, which will be financially accessible for families, will be opened and specifically run by young people with disabilities or challenging behaviour. This is the second time in five years that the Archdiocese of Malta is gifting properties to help NGOs who are making a tangible difference to people s lives. In 2019, the Archbishop handed over the Church premises, known as Adelaide Cini Institute in Santa Venera to Hospice Malta. The property is being used to create the St Michael Hospice, the first stateoftheart complex providing comprehensive palliative care, which is nearing completion.

Ahead of the upcoming Union budget, the metals and mining sector will be watching out for two critical aspects: increased infrastructure spending to propel growth in the domestic metals industry, and announcements related to enhancing logistics infrastructure in mineralrich areas, apart from duty reductions for cost savings. "Access to infrastructure is an issue in India. To produce 300 million tonnes of finished steel by 2025 26, the total transportation need of the steel sector is expected to be about 1,200 million tonnes. As most new steel plants are likely to be situated in resourcerich states such as Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Karnataka, these areas will become steel hubs needing access to infrastructure," the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce Industry said in its budget recommendations report. In the interim budget, the sector was disappointed by the lack of specific announcements or allocations. The industry had been seeking a removal of import duties on critical minerals. There has also been a call for increasing export duties on finished steel products to ensure the availability of steel for domestic consumption and to curb excessive exports that could lead to shortages within the country. Here are some of the top items on the metals and mining sector's wish list. Respite from Chinese steel imports. The domestic metal industry in India has been facing challenges due to the influx of Chinese steel imports. The industry has been seeking protection against these imports, and the Directorate General of Trade Remedies DGTR is yet to impose any duties on Chinese steel.Reportedly, India's steel and trade ministries are in talks over rising imports, particularly cheap Chinese goods. Rationalisation of taxes on key inputs. The industry is seeking other support measures from the government such as infrastructure development and rationalisation of taxes on key inputs like natural gas, coking coal, electricity and iron ore."Power costs are a critical concern for our industry, especially with the mandate to switch to renewable energy by 2030. Any incentives in theUnion Budgetto expedite this transition and encourage investment in renewable energy would be welcome," said Prem Khandelwal, chief financial officer, Indian Metals and Ferro Alloys Ltd. Earlier in the year, Jindal Stainless had proposed longterm exemption of basic customs duty on ferro nickel and ferro molybdenum. Financial incentives for critical minerals mining. As India transitions to renewable energy, the demand for critical minerals for batteries, solar panels and wind turbines is set to increase. Thus, scaling up exploration is crucial to secure a steady supply of these materials to support the country's cleanenergy goals. However, exploration companies are apprehensive of taking up critical mineral blocks over economic feasibility of projects and the possible financial implications. Exploration firms expect a viability gap funding mechanism or a similar provision for the mining sector. Top TrendsBudget 2024WiproStock RadarIxigo IPO allotmentIPO NewsPrajwal Revanna.

Jump to content. . As of Thursday, July 4, 2024. By LYNAIRE MUNNINGS. Tribune Staff Reporter. lmunningstribunemedia.net. A TAXI driver wants compensation after he was allegedly suspended without proper authority or investigation. He wants a judicial review of the practice where taxi drivers are suspended without proper authority. Philip Miller sued the Ministry of Transport and the Port Authority after allegedly becoming unemployed from February 19, 2018, to March 18, 2018, due to an incident with a road traffic officer at Festival Place. After an encounter with the officer, Mr Miller was allegedly denied entry to Festival Place until a disciplinary board meeting on March 15, where he was suspended for four days. Mr Miller, who was represented by Romona Farquharson Seymour and her cocounsel Samuel Taylor, alleged that Terez Kemp, a road traffic officer at the port, passed Mr Miller s taxi fare to another driver. He said he approached Ms Kemp, questioning why she had given his fare to another driver even though his taxi was next in line. She allegedly said he had taken longer than usual. This led to an argument between the two. Ms Kemp ordered a Royal Bahamas Defense Force officer to remove Mr Miller from the property, and the man s badge, which permitted him access to the property, was taken away. Ms Kemp later submitted a formal report against Mr Miller. Ms Kemp, a resident of Sir Lynden Pindling Estates, took the stand. Sophia Williams represented the Crown. Ms Kemp accused Mr Miller of using profanity during the exchange. I didn t put it in the report. I didn t want to because of the foul language, she said. She said she and Mr Miller had minimal interaction before the incident. She said passing the taxi fare to another driver was not unwarranted. She said Mr Miller took long to respond to the call and noted that his badge was returned the same day as the incident. Doral Fowler, a taxi cab driver of 36 years, who was present during the incident, took the stand as a witness, saying Mr Miller took between a minute or two to present himself to the call desk. He said that after Mr Miller questioned Ms Kemp about skipping his fare, Ms Kemp became loud and aggressive, asking: Who do you think you are talking to? You do not tell me what to do. . He said Ms Kemp questioned whether Mr Miller wants to work around here . Mr Fowler supported Mr Miller s claim that he did not curse at Ms Kemp, describing him as a Christian and frequent churchgoer. He added that Ms Kemp had developed a reputation for being rude to taxi drivers. Senior Commander Berne Wright and Janet Thompson also took the stand. The matter appeared before Chief Justice Ian Winder and was adjourned to September 3. Dwama! They accused the officer of bad behavior. That possible! We do have that here. It's possible he cussed her out too. So, this isn't an easy one to sort out. What is interesting here is it took about one month to hear a case which resulted in a 4 day suspension. So, the tone it took to hear the matter was far longer than the actual suspension. If she didn't put in the report the alleged profanity, then what was the suspension for? Also, if he got his badge back the same day, how did they enforce denying him access to the port?. This lil banana republic just keeps on going. . Post reply. I'm confused, this taxi driver says he was unable to work for a month because he was denied entry to Festival Place for a month in 2018, would he have us believe this is the only place for a driver to pick up fares in Nassau? Also his entry badge was returned to him the same day as the incident. Why are the courts wasting their time on such ludicrous business?. . Post reply. Username. PasswordForgot?. Sign in. Password.

Adeboye spoke during the Ministers and Workers Conference of RCCG Americas 1. According to Adeboye: Somebody says, at your age, why are you still running? I run faster than before because the closer you get to the finishing point, the more careful you must be. Some of you can say, Daddy, what are you saying, are you still running? I run fast. With all your anointing? Does anointing turn your body to stone? Samson was anointed. Singlehandedly, he killed a thousand soldiers. A woman finished him. I hope the boys are listening. You can say, Is anybody still interested in an 82yearold man? She is not interested in you but interested in putting an end to all the great works God has done through you. You see that woman smiling at you everywhere you go, she is there smiling, and she is not your wife, run. . EFCC corrupt, useless govt agency Mompha.

. By midJune, a buyer prepared to purchase the property for 399,999 had been found. The relationship was not problematic, City Manager Jos Madrigal said in an interview last week. But the decision by former Housing Innovation Manager Eva Henson, who was aware of the relationship, not to disclose the relationship to city officials was problematic, he said. When questioned by city officials about why the relationship was not disclosed,Henson resigned, he said. He or she had acceptable credit, acceptable debttoincome ratios and had a down payment of their own. With all the required approved conditions met, we issued the qualified buyer letter, she said.

Because that decision is based on what councilors think is best for the community and best for the finances of the city. .

Who better to be the arbiters of charm than the network responsible for giving us "House Hunters", "Love It or List It", or the "Property Brothers"?. Charming may not be the first descriptor to come to mind for places in Montana. Usually, Montana is described as rustic or scenic. But if you take "charming" at face value, something "pleasant, or attractive," Montana's stock in "charm" has been on the rise lately. While there are several Montana towns I'd nominate for this honorBigfork, Anaconda, Lewistown to name a few, HGTV's pick for Montana makes a lot of sense. It offers so much of what we love about Montana. HGTV has named Whitefish as the "most charming small town" in the state. It's a worthy pickintheir nomination, HGTV reminds everyone that, "National Geographiconce named Whitefish, Montana, one of the 'Top 25 Ski Towns in the World'" but personally, I'd say the town earns its charm simply for its train station. HGTValso namedWallace, Idaho, as one of America's most charming small towns, a choice that I fully endorse. I've still never had a bacon and cheddar omelet better than the ones I used to eat in Wallace when we were passing through on road trips. Also, the bike trails are fantastic. If "charming" is not your thing, keep scrolling for photos of Montana's dive bars. Gallery Credit:mwolfe. Gallery Credit: Credit: Mateo, 103.5 KISS FM

In a striking decision taken on June 3, 2024 Rikors no. 5120222 AD, the Constitutional Court presided by Chief Justice Dr M Chetcuti dealt another blow to the FIAU, the central antimoneylaundering agency in Malta, adding further misery to its seemingly endless judicial misadventures. Recent court cases have struck down their penalties or seriously reduced them. attach id"1418861" size"medium" align"right" type"image"David Fabriattach. The FIAU appealed the recent Phoenix Payments Ltd now apparently renamed Lazarus Long Ltd judgment already reported upon in this column. On 16 October 2023, the FIAU applied to the Court of Appeal for permission to make a reference to the Court of Justice of the EU. In very brief terms, the reference, consisting of four questions, sought comfort that the FIAU had acted correctly in its penalty awards. The agency claimed that its procedures are in line with EU law on money laundering as transposed into local law. It was now seeking to obtain an interpretation from the European Court in its favour. In its very short decision five pages, the Constitutional Court made short shrift of these submissions and rejected them outright. The Court of Appeal stated that it did not need any reference to help it interpret the relevant laws and treaties mentioned in the FIAU s application before it. Furthermore, EU law allowed, indeed, directed Member States to implement the relevant Directives in terms of their national law and according to their respective national administrative structures and procedures. It explained that national law determined the finemaking powers as well as the setting up of the implementing agency, the FIAU, which implemented a specific requirement of the Directives. For these reasons, the FIAU s attempt to seek some refuge from the European Court failed. On June 3, 2024, the thirdlargest tour operator in Europe, FTI Touristik Gmbh, filed for insolvency in the Munich regional court. The failure was due to a decline in bookings and millions of debts owed to suppliers which it could not repay. Founded in 1983, the Group had its headquarters in Munich and employed over 11,000 people across 90 subsidiaries worldwide. Thousands of its employees risk ending up without a job. The company has opened a dedicated hotline and support website in English to keep customers and suppliers informed. The failure of a big German tour operator such as FTI and related companies meant that the travel plans of thousands of consumers suffered a severe setback. Worst hit are the consumers who would have prepaid in full for their holidays with FTI. It is not excluded that other insolvency filings by Group subsidiaries and related firms will follow. Trips starting on June 4, 2024 were immediately cancelled. Up to 65,000 holidaymakers were travelling at the date of filing. At the date of the insolvency filing, about 7,500 visitors who booked their holiday through FTI were in Greece, 4,000 of whom were in Crete. Customers who had taken out a travel insurance policy should find themselves in a better position. Many consumers will now have recourse to the German Travel Security Fund DRSF if they have booked a package tour. A similar position would apply under Maltese law which transposed the same mandatory EU Directive. Maltese law on package travel follows closely the EU Directives on the subject and accordingly sets up an insolvency fund. This fund provides security to consumers in the event of the insolvency of a travel package organiser for a refund of any money paid in advance for services booked and for their repatriation. The package travel regulations are in Malta administered by the Malta Tourism Authority. The Times of Malta reported that the FTI Group carry out operations in Malta including the running of the Labranda Hotel and subsidiary offices which employ some 100 staff at their SmartCity offices. It is not yet known how these operations shall be affected. Times of Malta, June 5, 2024, Major Europe tour operator FTI goes bust, threatening Malta subsidiaries. The FTI collapse recalls a similar situation when Thomas Cook Group, the large and venerable UK tour operating company, failed in 2019, an event covered in my recent book on Company law. This new development should be of great interest to students of insolvency law, as well as of consumer and tourism law. David Fabri LL.D., Ph.D. has lectured and written on company and consumer law since 1994. He has recently authored two books on the regulation of financial services and companies Midsea Publications.

Constitutional Court in Malta dealt another blow to FIAU's anti-money laundering efforts, rejecting its appeal regarding penalty awards. FTI Touristik Gmbh, third-largest EU tour operator, filed for insolvency in Munich court, affecting thousands of customers and employees, including operations in Malta. Customers may seek refunds through travel security funds. Uncertainty surrounds FTI's operations in Malta. The event echoes Thomas Cook's 2019 collapse, significant for insolvency, consumer, and tourism law studies.

Today we mark the 520th anniversary of the passing into eternity of ruler Stefan cel Mare who reigned for 47 years, from 1457 to 1504, the longest reign of the medieval era in the Romanian lands. He fought over 40 wars or battles, most of them victorious, and built 44 monasteries and churches in Moldova, Transylvania and Mount Athos. For these merits, he was canonized by the Romanian Orthodox Church as Stefan cel Mare si Sfant in June 1992. He died on July 2, 1504 and was buried at Putna Monastery. . . 20002024 "I.P.

When it comes to the redhot antibodydrug conjugate ADC space, Big Pharmas have tended to head to China to build up their pipelines. But U.K.based Myricx Bio has caught the eye of a crop of major investors courtesy of its unique science. It was enough to bring in 114 million via a series A financing that the Londonbased biotech will use to get two candidates into the clinic over the coming years as well as expand the company s workforce. . Asia may see alot of ADC actionat the moment, but the U.K. has its own proud history of developing the modality, according to Myricx s CEO Robin Carr, Ph.D. He points to Spirogen, one of the earliest novel payload companies, which waspicked up by AstraZenecain 2013. Before that acquisition, Spirogen spun out some of its tech into ADC Therapeutics, which has gone on to bring the CD19directed ADC Zynlonta to market. So actually, the U.K. and Europe have got a track record of success, Carr told Fierce Biotech in an interview. And the founder of both those companies is our chairman Chris Martin. . . Despite this backstory, Carr is keen to stress that he doesn t see Myricx s primary attribute being its national location. I guess I feel international, I don't feel English, he explains. We use thought leaders out of Boston, out of Seattle, out of Geneva. So we access expertise all around the world. . Myricx was founded by chemist Andrew Bell, Ph.D., academic Ed Tate, Ph.D., and serial entrepreneur Roberto Solari, Ph.D., with the biotech s key science originating in Tate s lab at Imperial College London. Carr formally came on board in 2019 after the biotech secured seed funding. At the heart of Myricx s work is the inhibition of an enzyme called NMyristoyltransferase NMT, which adds a specific lipid modification to certain protein targets that are key to the survival of cancer cells. There are about five NMT pathways we think are probably explaining most of the activity, Carr explains. All five pathways that cancer cells have an addiction to are all blocked in parallel. So it's sort of selfamplifying. . We spent two years trying to see if NMT on its own would be good as an IV or an oral drug, Carr remembers. After assessing the preclinical data and sourcing feedback from very highprofile VCs, they decided that they could both reduce the drug s toxicity and focus the drug on specific cancers by attaching their payload onto an ADC. We were very fortunate that the first ADC we made looked remarkably good, both in terms of efficacy and tolerability, he says. That result really galvanized us. So we pivoted completely. . That s not to say it s been an easy ride. The team assumed they d bring in a series A funding round after 18 months, but it s been closer to five years. . It looks like the wait was worth it. Myricx has accrued a toptier selection of backers for its series A led by life sciences investors Abingworth and Novo Holdings, the controlling shareholder of Novo Nordisk. New investors include Eli Lilly and the U.K. government s economic development bank, with founding investors Brandon Capital and Sofinnova Partners also back for the ride. We spoke to Novo and Abingworth probably back in 2020, says Carr. We went a certain distance with them on the small molecule, and they liked us, they just wanted to see where we could take it to. . Meanwhile, the relationship with Lilly started when the biotech went public with its very early ADC data a year ago. They said, We really like it, let's start talking, Carr says. The money will be used to get one program into a phase 1 cancer trial in early 2026, explains Carr, who adds that some cash will also be used to mature and broaden the platform. The ultimate plan is to produce proofofconcept data for two programs in 2027 and 2028, respectively. It s not just Myricx s clinical ambitions that are growing. The company currently consists of four fulltime employees supported by around a dozen consultants, but the aim is expand the fulltime workforce to 15 staff while keeping the consultants onboard. Carr already has his eye on where he hopes to place this expanding team the company has been sizing up a combined laboffice facility in London, with the aim of moving in around September. The series A funds are expected to last into 2028, but what comes next? Is Myricx already thinking about another financing? Or will it follow in the footsteps of many of its ADC peers and look for a Big Pharma partnership or buyout?. Right now, our view would be we need to be able to secure a really substantial future fund, Carr says. Series B, IPO whether that's what we do, or whether we do an MA, actually, the best time to make those decisions is when you've got all of them worked up, and you have those optionalities. . So I think with this level of investment, there is a responsibility and a requirement that the board will expect us to build rich options, he adds.

Myricx Bio, a U.K.-based biotech company, has raised 114 million in a funding round to advance its unique science focused on antibody-drug conjugates for cancer. The company is looking to bring two candidates into clinical trials and expand its workforce. Myricx's technology targets an enzyme called NMyristoyltransferase NMT, crucial for cancer cell survival. The company aims to produce promising data for two programs by 2027 and 2028. With a strong investor lineup, including Abingworth, Novo Holdings, Eli Lilly, and the U.K. government, Myricx plans to grow its team and facilities in London. The company's future may involve seeking additional funding through a Series B round, an IPO, or potential partnerships with Big Pharma.

Disappearing banking services and boosting financial security in the Pacific region are the focal point for policymakers, finance institutions and international organisations at an Australian forum. Loginor signup to continue reading. Turning the tide on the closure of banks in the Pacific is high on the agenda in Brisbane during the twoday forum which started on Monday. The Pacific Banking Forum was an important outcome of the meeting between US President Joe Biden and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese last year, Pacific Minister Pat Conroy said. "This is a really good opportunity banking is one of the key pressure points in the Pacific," he told AAP. "We're really grateful for banks like Westpac and ANZ having a strong presence in the region.". Cohosted by Canberra and Washington, 300 people including Pacific leaders as well as representatives from commercial banks and international organisations, such as the International Monetary Fund will take part in the event. Mr Conroy is set to meet with leaders on Tuesday at the worldfirst event. The talks will dig into the causes of withdrawing correspondent banking relationships, which are where financial institutions provide services on behalf of another bank, usually in a foreign country. Security concerns have also been linked to the decline in bank services with China's moves in the region everpresent in the background. Last April, Nauru, which uses Australian dollars as its currency, signed a memorandum of understanding with stateowned Bank of China, after Bendigo Adelaide Bank announced it was pulling out by December this year. Preventing banking services from leaving the region was "vital to the safety, security and economic development", Treasurer Jim Chalmers said. Australia's Assistant Treasurer and Financial Services Minister Stephen Jones delivered the opening address on Monday. "Australia is committed to our Pacific partners and a sustainable financial system is integral to the strength of our region," he said. The US also had a presence with Brian Nelson, the US Treasury's under secretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, telling the meeting of its concern about the decline in regional banking. "We share the concerns that Pacific Island countries are experiencing among the most serious declines in correspondent banking relationships in the world," Mr Nelson told the meeting. "The vast and dispersed geography of the region makes correspondent banking even more critical for clearing foreign exchange payments, promoting trade and development and facilitating remittance flows.". "This geography can also, however, make it difficult and expensive for banks to offer services to each island.". Australian Associated Press. Advertisement.

Chae Sugeun, who was killed during a search mission in a stream for victims of record downpours last year, submitted a petition to the police calling for the punishment of his commanders. According to the bereaved family of the deceased marine, the mother holds the commanders responsible for her son's death while on duty. She reportedly requested police to investigate why Chae had not been wearing a life vest or other safety gear during the mission, and had been told to wear boots, which made it difficult for him to walk in the sandy stream swollen with floodwater. The content of the petition will be discussed by the investigation committee of the Gyeongbuk Provincial Police Agency, which has been handling the probe related to the case. The police is expected to reveal the results of its investigation sometime next week. Chae, who was a 20yearold conscripted soldier of the Marine Corps' 1st Division, was part of the marine unit that was deployed to Yecheon, North Gyeongsang Province during heavy downpours that hit the country last summer. A total of 119 other soldiers were sent to the stream the morning of July 19 to search for those who gone missing in the flood, when Chae and two others were swept away by the flood waters. He was found dead that night, and Republic of Korea Marine Corps wrapped up an investigation in just one week without punishment to any of his commanders. But the case sparked a major political scandal when suspicions rose of President Yoon Suk Yeol ordering the military to scale down the investigation related to Chae's death. The main opposition Democratic Party has been seeking to pass a bill mandating a special counsel investigation into the military response to the incident, but Yoon and the ruling People Power Party have been adamantly against it. . .

NEW DELHI:In a landmark verdict, the Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled that a divorced Muslim woman is entitled to seek maintenance from her husband under Section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code. The apex court added that the Muslim Women Protection of Rights on Divorce Act, 1986, will not stand over the secular law. A bench comprising Justices BV Nagarathna and Justice Augustine George Masih delivered this crucial judgement upholding a Muslim woman's right while hearing a Muslim man's petition in the apex court challenging the Telangana high court's order to pay a compensation of Rs. 10,000 as interim maintenance to his exwife. Furthermore, the supreme court ruled that if, during the pendency of any application under Section 125 CrPC, a Muslim woman gets divorced, then she can resort to the Muslim Women Protection of Rights on Marriage Act, 2019. "We are hereby dismissing the criminal appeal with the major conclusion that Section 125 CrPC would be applicable to all women and not just married women," Justice Nagarathna said while pronouncing the verdict, as quoted by Bar and Bench. The bench made it clear that the law for seeking maintenance applies to all married women, irrespective of their religion. The case pertains to a petition by a man, who had challenged the Telangana High Court's directive to pay Rs 10,000 interim maintenance to his former wife. This verdict was challenged before the Telangana High Court on grounds that the couple divorced as per Muslim personal law in 2017. The High Court modified the maintenance to Rs 10,000 per month and directed the family court to dispose of the case within six months. The respondent, the man's former wife, raised grievances before the Supreme Court over the filing of claims under Section 125 of the CrPC. The lawyer, representing the Muslim man in the case, argued that as per the Muslim Women Act 1986, a divorced woman is not entitled to claim benefit under Section 125 CrPC. Justices Nagarathna and Masih in separate but concurrent judgments dismissed the man's case and upheld the Muslim woman's right to claim maintenance from her former husband.

Supreme Court rules that divorced Muslim women can seek maintenance under Section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code, regardless of the Muslim Women Protection of Rights on Divorce Act, 1986. The court emphasizes that all women, irrespective of religion, are eligible for maintenance if married.

People from across the property industry seem largely optimistic after Labour secured a landslide victory at the General Election. While landlord groups are worried about the proposed abolition of Section 21 evictions, many are keen to see how and whether Labour s housebuilding plans come to fruition. Kris Collett, managing director of Windsorbased property developers Castlemere Developments, said: The housebuilding industry has struggled under 14 years of Conservative government and we are optimistic about the change a new government will provide. With a large parliamentary majority, Labour is in a position to bring forward much needed planning reforms required to get the housing sector and get the country moving. I believe the whole industry is now a little more optimistic about the future. . Phil Andrew, chief executive for Orbit Group, said: We would like to congratulate Sir Keir and the Labour Party. With a clear majority in place, we have a unique opportunity to put the measures in place needed to tackle the housing crisis once and for all, so now is the time for pledges to be turned into action. . Other commenters were keen that Labour focuses on not just boosting housing supply, but focusing on quality. A spokeswoman from The Property Institute, a professional body for property managers, said: Labour s commitment to get Britain building again is commendable and necessary. Moreover, in the aftermath of Grenfell, it is imperative that the new government prioritises our country s numerous outstanding building safety concerns without delay. Improving the lives of residents in multioccupancy buildings must be high on the agenda of this government. . Nick Sanderson, chief executive at Audley group, said: Change needs to focus on housebuilding, but to make that happen help is needed to reform the planning system and to expedite specialist housing, including housing that is tailored to our growing older population. It takes bravery to move away from promises of building more and more, to a more laser focus on what needs to be built to make the most difference. Let s hope the new government is ready to take that leap. . Labour has pledged to abolish Section 21 immediately, though Angela Rayner s comments suggest the party is also mindful of improving the court system, which should help to mitigate the problems of using a Section 8. Karl Wilkinson, chief executive of adviser firm Access Financial Services, said: With the Labour win, some landlords will be reconsidering their options. Labour said they will immediately ban Section 21 nofault evictions, which could push portfolio landlords out of the buytolet market, resulting in rental accommodation becoming even more scarce and expensive. That said, labour s ambitious housebuilding plans are good news for landlords, especially if it increases the supply of affordable social housing so that lowincome households don t have to rely on the private rental sector. . Dan Wilson Craw, deputy chief executive of campaign group Generation Rent, said: In its manifesto the Labour party promised to abolish Section 21 evictions immediately. Today Mr Starmer promised urgency. After an entire Parliament with nothing to show for renters, this must now mean a new Renters Reform Bill announced in the Kings Speech, with security of tenure, affordability and higher standards at its heart. .

Labour's landslide victory in the recent General Election has left the property industry feeling optimistic. However, concerns exist over the proposed abolition of Section 21 evictions. Industry professionals are eager to see Labour's housebuilding plans come to fruition and hope for a focus on both quantity and quality in housing developments. The party's commitment to improving building safety and reforming the planning system has been well received, but there are worries about potential impacts on landlords, particularly regarding rental accommodation availability and pricing.

Texas' Best Rock. A certain type of scam is emerging once again across the nation, and it may soon make its way to Texas. Here's what is known at the time of writing. Per CBS News,here's the how the scam works. A business looks for a person address online, and when they find it, they send products to said address. In addition, after the item is transported, the company writes a false good review with the person's name. This untrue review leads to the company gaining better overall status, which in turn, leads to boost in profits. But gaining recognition this way isn't looked at positively by sites. CBS News received a statement from Temu, which is one of the companies that deals with this issue:. "In the case of brushing, Temu strictly prohibits this practice and will take action against violators.". Amazon is also a company that has brushing scams occur with their products. CBS News suggested the following if one were to encounter the scam. CBS stated that first the individual should contact Amazon, Temu, or whichever company they received the unknown object from. Texans should also make an attempt to talk to the sender, and request and fake reviews be removed from websites. One should also look at credit reports and switch passwords on their online accounts. As this is a developing story, we will have more information when it becomes available. Gallery Credit: Tommy Paradise, Townsquare Media, Bell County, Bell County Crime Stoppers, Canva.

Scam known as brushing involves sending unsolicited products, writing fake reviews to boost company status and profit. Texas could be the next target for this scheme. Companies like Amazon and Temu are taking action against violators. If encountering this scam, contact the company, request removal of fake reviews, monitor credit reports, and change online account passwords.

Kimilili MP Didmus Barasa has for the first time recounted how he escaped Parliament after a group of protesters raided the buildings. The group left a trail of destruction with a section of Parliament Buildings going up in flames. Speaking during a burial of one of the protesters in Bungoma on Saturday, MP Barasa said he cheated death by a whisker. "Wale vijana walifika, ile mbio nilikimbia nikama ile ya Omanyala. Kama mbio yangu haingeniokoa, leo tungekua tunazika Willy alafu pia mungekuja kunizika," he said. Loosely translates to: "When the protesters arrived, I ran like Omanyala for my safety. Were it not for my speed, today we would bury Willy then later you have come for my burial". Barasa spoke during the burial of Willy Sitati, 22, who was killed in Nairobi during the antigovernment protests. He was a student at a college in Kibera, Nairobi. Barasa said after the group raided Parliment, he saw a group of youths point at him in an apparent move that he was the target. "Niliona wakifika mbunge wakisema ndio ule mjumbe wa kofia. Nilikua nyuma lakini nilikimbia nikafika Bunge Towers wa kwanza I saw them arriving in Parliament and they pointed at me. I was behind but I run so fast that i became first to arrive at Bunge Towers," he said. "Niliona kifo kwa kioo inapita tuu. Na walizunguka wakanitafuta I saw death passing in the mirror.". On June 25, protesters overpowered antiriot police, forcefully stormed Parliament and tried to set it ablaze on a day of chaos and bloodletting as antitax law demos swept the country. The surging crowd, mostly youths, surrounded Parliament from nearly all corners and brought down parliamentary gates near the Jomo Kenyatta mausoleum under heavy clouds of tear gas. Police fired live bullets, killing an unknown number of people as MPs fled the rowdy mobs. Protesters could be seen lying on Parliament Road, some in a pool of blood, but it was unclear whether they were alive or dead. The Star was able to count at least three bodies lying on Parliament Road. The scared MPs hid in the underground tunnel of the newly constructed Bunge Towers as the protesters rampaged through Parliament, breaking windows and insulting the lawmakers as betrayers. Once inside Parliament, they uprootedthe national flag, broke into the Senate and turned everything upside down, taking with them valuables. They then set a section of Parliament on fire but which was quickly contained. Once things calmed down, scenes of destruction were all visible, especially in the Senate.

Western finished far further ahead of the Workers Party candidate in his race, who only managed fourth place. In her victory speech, Ms Mahmood hit out at those who had challenged her Muslim faith because of Labour s position on Gaza. It is never acceptable to deny anyone their faith, to brand them an infidel, she said.

Menu. WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. Nearly 200 Florida laws are set to take effect Monday, and some of them could have big impacts on you. Gov. Ron DeSantis signed bills impacting parents, property owners, employment, and health care. Here's a look at a few of them:. HB 775: Surrendered Infants. HB 621: Property Rights. HB 201: Emergency Refills of Insulin. HB 433: Employment Regulation. Focusing on HB 775, the Florida Infant Surrender Law changes Monday from the previous sevenday surrender period to now 30 days.A Safe Haven for Newbornsis a state nonprofit organization that helps save newborns from abandonment with alternative support options. "This is going to give the mom more time to make an important decision that will effect her for the rest of her life, and we are supportive of it," said Nick Silverio, the founder of Safe Haven for Newborns. Silverio connected WPTV with a family who adopted a baby girl that was dropped off at the Deerfield Beach Fire Department in 2003. Lori Lewis adopted baby Gloria Hope on Father's Day 21 years ago. "We received a call from our agency,Kids in Distress, and they said we have a baby for you, and she's yours to keep," said Lewis. "The firefighters named her Hope, so we kept it.". Gloria is now 21 years old, living in Kentucky as a college student with big dreams of helping others. "It's such a part of my life that I don't really think about it as being different or being strange," Gloria said. Back in 2003, the surrender law was only three days. Lewis talked about the new law going into effect and how this will impact future families. "It's not a decision made lightly. I support it," said Lewis. "If it wasn't for Gloria's biological mother, I wouldn't have her. So I am grateful."

Nearly 200 Florida laws are set to take effect, impacting various areas such as parents, property rights, employment, and health care. One significant change is the Florida Infant Surrender Law extending the surrender period to 30 days. Safe Haven for Newborns supports this change, having helped families like Lori Lewis' who adopted and raised a baby dropped off at a fire department in 2003, now a thriving college student. Lewis expresses gratitude for the new law, recognizing the profound impact on families' lives.

NEW YORK AP Patrick Bertoletti gobbled up 58 hot dogs to win his first men s title Thursday at the annual Nathan s Famous Fourth of Julyhot dog eating contest, taking advantage of the absence of the event s biggest star. In the women s competition, defending champion Miki Sudo won her 10th title and set a new world record by downing 51 links. Joey Jaws Chestnut, the reigning men s champion and winner of 16 out of 17 previous competitions, didn t attend this year over asponsorship tiff. Instead he competed later in the day against four soldiers at a U.S. Army base in El Paso, Texas, where he wolfed down 57 hot dogs in five minutes. Bertoletti, 39, of Chicago, won in a tight, 10minute race where the leader bounced back and forth, defeating 13 competitors from around the world. He said he lost weight and practiced for three months with an urgency to prepare for the event, thinking he had a good chance of winning. With Joey not here, I knew I had a shot, Bertoletti said. I was able to unlock something that I don t know where it came from. . Bertoletti bested his prior record of 55 hot dogs at the event, which is held every Independence Day on New York s Coney Island, a beachfront destination with amusement parks and a carnivalesque summer culture. Earlier, in the women s competition, Sudo, a 38yearold dental hygiene student from Florida, once again carried the day and set the new record a year after forcing down 39 12 hot dogs in 2023. I m just happy to call this mine for another year, Sudo said after winning the pink belt. Sudo defeated 13 competitors, including 28yearold rival Mayoi Ebihara of Japan, who came in second after eating 37 hot dogs. She was also the runnerup in 2023. Sudo also outdid her partner, former Florida bodybuilder Nicholas Wehry, who ate 46 hot dogs in the men s competition. Bertoletti s victory marks the first time the famed mustard belt has gone to someone besides Chestnut since 2015. Thousands of fans, some wearing foam hot dog hats, flock each year to the event held outside the original Nathan s location in Coney Island. Rich Shea, CEO of event organizer Major League Eating, noted how people still came out in droves even though Chestnut was not there. Just a great competitor, a great guy, a grown man, and a man who s made a choice not to be here today, he said of the popular eating champ on ESPN. But fortunately for us, tens of thousands of people are crowding around Nathan s Famous. It s a pilgrimage every year. This is not a paid Hollywood crowd. . Competitors came from over a dozen states and five continents, with prospects from Brazil, Japan, the United Kingdom, South Korea, Australia and the Czech Republic vying for the coveted title and 10,000 prize money. Last yearChestnut, of Indiana, chewed his way to the title by downing 62 dogs and buns in 10 minutes. The record, which he set in 2021, is 76. Chestnut was initiallydisinvitedfrom the event over a sponsorship deal with Impossible Foods, which specializes in plantbased meat substitutes and which advertised on ESPN throughout the event Thursday. Major League Eating has since said it walked back the ban, but Chestnut decided to spend the holiday with the troops anyway. Chestnut said he wouldn t return to the Coney Island contest without an apology. The event in El Paso was held on an Army base that s not easily accessed by the public. Still, a few hundred fans showed up to support Chestnut, some wearing hot dog costumes and another wearing a Tshirt that read, Let Joey eat. Chestnut s tally of 57 bested the four Fort Bliss soldiers, who ate a combined 49. Ahead of the event, Chestnut expressed fear that he might not perform well without the support of the large and raucous Coney Island crowd. But afterward he said he had hit a recordsetting pace. . I love you guys, Chestnut told the fans at Fort Bliss after acknowledging the military service of his father, grandfather, and brother. You guys pushed me so hard, thank you so much. . The event was sponsored by Impossible Foods, though its vegan products were not used in the competition. He presented the organization with a 106,000 donation check; 1,000 for each hot dog eaten. Chestnut will next compete with pro rival Takeru Kobayashi on Sept. 2 in aheadtohead Netflix special. . Haigh reported from Norwich, Connecticut. Copyright 2024 The Associated Press.

He visited Japan last year and in 2011 and 2012. He also is a student of martial arts. A long, long time ago, probably before the last Ice Age, we have a Hopi legend that talks about how there used to be brothers here and one of them went east with special knowledge and the younger brother stayed here in the west with special knowledge, Honyumptewa said. The brother who went east focused on the body and energy, and the brother who stayed west had knowledge on the Hopi ceremonial calendar which keeps the world in balance and creates growth, he said. The Amit bha Buddha piece is a blend of east and west, with a Hopi man with long hair and a pipe as seen in Hopi ceremonies. He is sitting in the lotus blossom pose, which Honyumptewa said the Hopi people used to sit in long ago. Western Pureland Amitabh Buddha from the west is the meaning of the Chinese characters. In order to do any ceremony, Hopi or not, one should learn .. how to build energy from self, by exercising and spreading positive energy, compassion, and kindness, Honyumptewa said. Being truthful to oneself and others can help increase the energies of your chakras. . Honyumptewa donated the prints to say thank you to the kindness of the staff and other patients at the rehab hospital. I ve never had help like that before, he said.

This accolade comes as Spacey faces a civil trial next year over sexual assault allegations, despite being found not guilty in previous related cases in the U.S. and U.K. Control, directed by Gene Fallaize, also received the Best Thriller award. The award ceremony is scheduled to take place on July 20 in Folkestone, Kent. While it's uncertain if Spacey will attend, his recognition marks another step in his efforts to reclaim his career. In addition to the Folkestone award, Spacey is set to receive a Lifetime Achievement award in Taormina, Sicily, at an event on July 21. The organisers, Michel Curatolo and Marco Fallanca, praised Spacey, stating, "Kevin Spacey is a timeless monument in film and theatre history, who unquestionably deserves the chance to get his career back.".

During the pandemic, ultrawealthy individuals flocked to Singapore, attracted by its less strict controls and favorable tax policies. The number of singlefamily offices based in the citystate more than tripled in three years, rising from 400 in 2020 to 1,400by the endof 2023 according to government data. But the industry is coming under scrutiny after Singapore uncovered its largestever moneylaundering case, leading to the arrest of 10 foreigners and over 3 billion Singapore dollars 2.2 billion in confiscated assets. Six singlefamily office funds, granted tax incentives for operating in Singapore, are linked to individuals related to the moneylaundering scandal,according toDeputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong. The government withdrew the tax benefits in the financial year when the owners or their spouses were charged or convicted, Gan explained ina statement publishedTuesday. Singapore s deputy prime minister also noted the total value of forfeited assets far exceeded the value of the tax benefits. Family offices manage the wealth of ultrawealthy families, either individually or as part of a group. Such offices tend to work discreetly to shield the wealth of these families from the public eye. To entice family offices to set up in the city, Singaporeoffers tax perksif these family offices meet certain requirements such as local investment or philanthropic activities. But other factors are also helping attract family offices to Singapore. The country s predictable legal and political system offers investors the stability they crave, says Brendan Foo, cofounder of Forward Risk, a corporate intelligence firm. Vistra, a corporate business service provider, highlighted Singapore s welldeveloped financial and professional services sectors, international connectivity, and strong health care and education system as reasons for the city s appeal to family offices, in an Augustreport. Singapore also benefited from missteps from other financial hubs in the region. Erstwhile rivals such as Hong Kong have lost their luster in dramatic fashion, Foo says. In March 2019, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, the citystate s central bank and integrated financial regulator, and the Economic Development Board, a government agency that works to enhance Singapore s attractiveness to global business,jointlyestablished afamily office development team. After the moneylaundering case broke in August, MASin December saidthat a thriving family office sector could provide job opportunities and capital for businesses. Offices would need to comply with local employment and spending requirements to qualify for tax incentives. Last August, Singapore arrested 10 foreigners, primarily of Chinese origin but holding multiple nationalities, in simultaneous raids across the country. The government seized assets, including luxury properties, cars, and gold bars, worth billions of dollars. The 10 arrested individuals were charged and convicted with crimes including forgery, laundering profits from organized crime, and being part of illegal online gambling operations targeting those in China. The scandalalso ensnaredproperty agents and multiple banks. Further investigations are currently underway against 17 additional suspects not currently in Singapore. Since the scandal broke, authorities are ramping upscrutinyof the financial sector, such as broadening the scope of due diligence checks. On Tuesday, the governmentproposed legislationthat will allow authorities to prosecute offenders for money laundering without showing a direct link between the illicit gains and the original crime. The proposed bill will also allow officials to investigate money laundering linked to environmental crimes in other jurisdictions. The additional scrutiny is putting off some onceeager investors hoping to set up in Singapore. Thanks to bureaucratic delays, some Chinese familiesare reportedlyturning their attention back to Hong Kong. 2024 Fortune Media IP Limited. All Rights Reserved.

Ultra-wealthy individuals moved to Singapore during the pandemic due to lenient controls and favorable tax policies. The number of single-family offices tripled to 1,400 by 2023 but came under scrutiny after a major money laundering case. Tax benefits were withdrawn from offices linked to the scandal. Singapore's appeal also lies in its stable legal system and financial services. The country faces competition from Hong Kong but benefits from its weaknesses. Authorities are enforcing stricter regulations in the wake of the scandal, deterring some investors.

. I have written about this before, but with recent events in political party circles, it may be clearer. The backbone of the Progressive Labour Party is the delegates. It is almost fair to say the delegates are the PLP. The system of representative delegates can be found in many places and is favourable to an autocratic style of rule. The continuance of David Burt s reign despite several disapprovals of his style is protected by the delegates about 80 out of approximately 122. If seven MPs decide not to contest their seats in the next General Election, he will replace them with seven who are loyal to him. A leadership challenge through a special delegates conference will almost certainly fail because the delegates for the most part are entrenched, with many tied to government jobs and committee positions. Joseph Stalin was a very unpopular leader, who ruled brutally through fear and victimisation which took the lives of 26 million people and transformed the nation of Russia into an empire. That Geoffrey Bing, a British MP, lawyer and established communist, wrote the PLP constitution is not coincidental when we understand the times and how he became connected to Bermuda and our labour party. The history is secondary and only worth knowing. The important consideration is that owing to its design, which is not an open democracy, it went from six MPs in 1963 down to one in 1965, and in 1985 when the PLP was poised to be the next government, it expelled five sitting MPs, causing the party to crawl for another 13 years. The only effective descent is that members step away carrying their interest and dissent to the middle of the floor. The PLP party machinery by its nature will bury dissent and replace it with loyalty. In reality, all the dissenters are sitting as lame ducks , waiting for their parliamentary terms to end. As it stands, the PLP could lose seven seats at the next election but still retain the government. That would be because some will be foolish enough to believe they can change the PLP from within. The only effective dissent is to rise on the floor and declare another direction. The PLP is run more like a junta; it is not an open political machinery with progressiveness at its base. Its delegates appear blind to progressive reform, but are fully equipped and formidable as an election team. The winds are indeed blowing, but no one knows where the winds are favouring.

The Progressive Labour Party's power lies in delegates who support its leader, David Burt, despite criticism. The party's structure favors autocratic rule, reminiscent of Stalin's regime. With delegates entwined in government roles, dissent is stifled. The party's history shows dissent is swiftly dealt with, ensuring loyalty. The article questions the party's ability to embrace progressive change amid potential seat losses in the next election.

Jillian Kay is a Southern California native and a proud graduate of Emerson College in Boston, where she earned a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism with a minor in comedy writing and performance. WAAY 31's Jillian Kay covers the opening of a new recovery house for women in Somerville. The nonprofit's mission is to provide sober living for women in North Alabama. Their program usually lasts nine months, but leaders say sometimes that just isn't enough. Crystal Steelman is the Director and Founder of TLC Recovery House. She says "The Graduate House" will help women stay sober. Steelman struggled with addiction herself. She lost her family, friends, and felt all alone. However, that all changed eight years ago when she decided to get clean. "I've got my children back, I've got relationships back," Steelman said. Those are all resources Steelman wishes she had from the start, but she's glad her experience now helps others. "I get it. I've been there. It hits different," Steelman explained. "You know that I can tell them it's going to be okay. It is, and you can do it. If I can do it, you can do it.". Steelman's journey and kindness inspires women like Beverly Tanner who has been sober for more than a year, thanks to TLC Recovery House. "I found people that really love me and understand me," Tanner said. She says she's never made it this far into recovery before. She's completed TLC's nine month program, and now she'll be one of several women moving into their newest facility. Tanner can't wait to live with her sisters in recovery. "It's something that you're always gonna have in recovery," Tanner explained. "It's your sisters in recovery.". Tanner and several other ladies will move into the "Graduate House" on Aug. 1. They will attend three meetings per week, be regularly drug tested, and most important, be surrounded by a shared sisterhood. Steelman says her work does not stop here. She plans to raise money and open a "Graduate House" for men next. Steelman hopes to name it "Josiah's House" after her son who died battling his addiction.

The upsidedown triangle is used by Hamas to mark targets and has been adopted by their supporters to urge violence toward Jews and Israelis. Berlin, once the capital of Hitler sThird Reich, has banned an inverted red triangle that is historically associated with Nazi concentration camps and is now used by Hamas and antiIsraeli protesters to call for violence against Israel. Berlin s ordinance, which bans the symbol at protests and in the context of the IsraelHamas war, was approved by the state senate. The Telegraphreportsthat the German lawmakers concluded that the triangle is a threat to Jewish people and supporters of Israel. The symbol has been used at Berlin to target politicians including the city s mayor, Kai Wegner, who cracked down on antiIsrael protesters who were occupying a university, the outlet notes. Activists also scrawled Anne Pasternak Brooklyn Museum White Supremacist Zionist outside her door. The red triangle was first used by the AlQassam Brigades, Hamas s military wing, to indicate and Israel Defense Soldier they hoped to target. Jews living at Berlin have been subjected to harassment and a number of attacks, the AntiDefamation Leaguereports. The inverted red triangle is used as an antiIsrael symbol and can be used as a call for violence, the AntiDefamation Leaguenotes. It appears in Hamas propaganda videos to mark targets and is also used online or on social media in an emoji form. The triangle, the organization explains, is used to represent Hamas itself and glorify its use of violence in many popular antiZionist memes. .

Tesco Ireland has taken delivery of 50 biomethane fuelled trucks which will operate across its distribution network. Biomethane, a renewable energy source produced from organic waste, offers a cleaner alternative to traditional fossil fuels. The new trucks are part of the retailer's strategy to reduce its carbon footprint and enhance the environmental sustainability of its operations. The trucks will replace 50 diesel units, cutting down tailpipe carbon emissions by up to 90. The biomethane fleet will be operated by Tesco's transport partner DHL and the trucks will be used to transport produce to stores from its distribution centres in Dublin. "Our network is one of the most sophisticated distribution networks in the country," said Tesco Ireland Retail Distribution Director, Ger Counihan. "More than 1,800 journeys are made from our distribution centres every week to our 177 stores. We have worked hard with DHL to prepare for the switch from diesel to biomethane trucks, and this move to cleaner energy will reduce the carbon emissions created by this fleet considerably," he said. The renewable fuel for the trucks will come from Irish and European anaerobic digestion plants, and the trucks will refuel at the newly opened BioCNG refuelling station operated by Flogas at nearby St Margaret s in north Dublin. Each truck has a range capacity of 700 kms on a full tank of Biomethane Gas which allows the Tesco business to reach any of its 177 stores and return without refuelling. Each truck will complete an average of 15 to 20 truckloads of store deliveries across the country each week from Letterkenny to Kerry to Dublin. DHL Supply Chain s David O Neill said it was an important project to demonstrate the role biomethane can play in Irish commercial transport. "This project is a great example of our Green Transport Policy, guiding the transition of 30 of our own fleet to a green alternative by the end of 2026, an important enabler in achieving our sustainability goals," he said.

This move aligns with Tesco's goal to reduce its carbon footprint and promote cleaner energy use in commercial transport.

Williams, who is AfricanAmerican, was identified by the software mistakenly, leading to his wrongful arrest for a shoplifting incident. The city of Detroit has reached a significant settlement with Robert Williams, a man who was wrongly accused of shoplifting due to flawed facial recognition technology. The settlement includes a 300,000 payment to Williams and mandates substantial changes to how Detroit police use facial recognition in their investigations. This case highlights the ongoing debate about the reliability and fairness of facial recognition technology, especially its potential biases against people of colour. Williams, who is AfricanAmerican, was mistakenly identified by the software, leading to his wrongful arrest for a shoplifting incident at a Shinola watch store in 2018. His driver s license photo was incorrectly flagged as a likely match to a man seen on the store s security video. The agreement, announced by the American Civil Liberties Union ACLU and the Civil Rights Litigation Initiative at the University of Michigan Law School, is seen as a victory for civil rights advocates who argue that facial recognition technology is inherently flawed and racially biased. The settlement not only compensates Williams but also imposes new restrictions on the use of the technology by the Detroit police. Under the new guidelines, Detroit police officers will no longer be permitted to arrest individuals based solely on facial recognition results. Furthermore, they will not be able to make arrests based on photo lineups generated from facial recognition searches. Instead, any leads provided by the technology must be corroborated with traditional investigative techniques. Phil Mayor, an attorney with the ACLU, explained that this means police must gather additional evidence to substantiate any suspicions raised by facial recognition matches. The settlement also includes a retrospective review of cases from 2017 to 2023 where facial recognition technology was used. Detroit police are required to examine these cases to determine if any arrests were made without independent evidence. If such instances are found, a prosecutor will be notified to address the potential wrongful convictions. This agreement follows policy changes announced by Detroit Police Chief James White last August, prompted by another wrongful arrest case involving a woman who was eight months pregnant. She had been wrongly charged with carjacking due to facial recognition errors. In response, Chief White implemented policies requiring that facial recognition technology be supplemented with additional evidence, ensuring that suspects have the means, ability, and opportunity to commit the crime before making an arrest. Robert Williams expressed hope that these changes will lead to better safeguards and ultimately reduce the use of facial recognition technology. Williams expressed excitement about the introduction of more safeguards for the technology, hoping these measures will contribute to a better world. Having said that he indicated that he would rather the technology not be used at all. The settlement and policy changes in Detroit could have broader implications for the use of facial recognition technology in law enforcement across the United States. Critics argue that the technology s inaccuracies and biases can lead to wrongful arrests and undermine public trust in the police. By implementing stricter guidelines and reviewing past cases, Detroit is taking steps to address these concerns and improve the fairness and accuracy of its policing methods. is on YouTube.

You can grant your consents to use your data for specific purposes below or by clicking Agree to all . Their project Pistes Vertes aimed to unearth the local solutions adopted by communities most affected by climate change worldwide. The idea was to be able to develop solutionsfocused stories, combined with international reports with compelling narratives Grand Reportage which is one of Liberation s trademarks. We had previously established that solutionsoriented stories were received favourably by our audience so we wanted to explore that more. The solutions angle on international stories was very new to us, both for the journalists and the readers. It allowed us to look into very local ways of life of communities around the world and to immerse ourselves in a tangible manner in their problems and solutions. For example, when we talked abouttraditional agriculture methodsin Costa Rica,permacultureTunisia orirrigation systemsPeru we needed to know about the materials used, the building techniques, and thus the natural resources available in the surroundings and the local economy. The solutions angle let us be very concrete in the way we were telling the stories, really focusing on the protagonists perspective. The pillars of solutions journalism, in particular the one about the necessity to report on the limitations of solutions, kept us in check to interrogate NGOs perspectives and replace them in a wider context. Too often, solutions stories turn out to be public relations pieces in favour of NGO s work. We paid particular attention not to do that. The grant provided a substantial budget without which some of these stories would not be possible. We went to Greenland, for instance, to talk aboutclimate adaptation. Or in very remote places inIndiaandColombia. Without the grant, Lib ration, like most of the news outlets in FranceEurope, could not afford to send a team to these places. So it was a unique occasion for the communities of these places to be heard and to showcase their unique solutionsoriented creativity. There was a particularly interesting debate around the use of pictures, which is also one of Lib ration s trademarks. We realised that the dramatisation, and sensationalising that often occurs in the news world is sometimes driven by the choices of pictures. In trying to pick positive , engaging pictures to go with our stories, we started a thinking process that goes beyond the project in what we want to convey in our pictures. The stories were shared on social media by a relatively younger audience than Liberation s average. Some of them permaculture in Tunisia, and communityadministered forests in India were translated into English and sparked debate. It was sometimes difficult to make the writers understand that they also had to offer a counter perspective on the solution. In the beginning, some stories were too positive but we gradually corrected that. The stories received positive feedback from the audience, but their performance was still way under investigation stories or dramatic war stories. A closer relationship with metric and data teams is needed when choosing angles. We already started to implement an almost systematic solutions approach in our environmental coverage. Do not rely only on NGOs or UN agencies to prepare your story. Engage with local journalists, they know the ground. Always look at the costs financial, human, environmental of a solution and always ask yourself the question: who is benefitting from this solution, rather than another? Pay attention to the scale too: some solutions have great outcomes in a very limited area but can not be replicated or are having anecdotal results compared to the scale of the problem. In that case, not all solutions are worth reporting. Download our latest free Solutions Journalism guides below:. The Solutions Journalism Accelerator is a programme by the European Journalism Centre EJC in partnership with the Solutions Journalism Network delivering grant funding to support solutionsfocused development journalism in European news organisations. The programme is supported by the Bill Melinda Gates Foundation. For the purpose of this programme, we define solutions journalism as a practice that investigates and explains, in a critical and cleareyed way, how people try to solve widely shared problems. While journalists usually define news as what s gone wrong , solutions journalism tries to expand this notion by emphasising that what works is also newsworthy. By adding rigorous, evidencebased coverage of solutions, journalists can tell the whole story. Images from:Au Caire, des chiffonniers chercheurs d ordures.

Photo provided by AKDOTPF. PALMER State officials say crews are trying to complete repairs on the Glenn Highway by Wednesday after the Matanuska River undercut the roadway near Sutton, prompting emergency action. The river, running high with snowmelt, is threatening the highway in the area of Mile 63 as well as another section about 13 miles away near King Mountain. Crews worked through Saturday night and Sunday placing material to shore up the eroding section at Mile 63.4 north of Sutton, according to the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities. The road was reopened to two lanes late Sunday but was down to one lane with a flagger on Monday, officials said. The traffic pattern was necessary to give trucks room to work as they widen the embankment, according to Justin Shelby, the transportation department s regional administrative operations manager. The plan is for crews to install riprap, large rocks that safeguard the bank, on Tuesday, Shelby said. Pruhs Corp. is the contractor doing the emergency repairs at both sections, he said. The goal is to get both of those done ahead of the Fourth. . Through the day Sunday, crews placed material off the north end of the damaged area to create a new embankment as they worked south to reestablish the shoulder, officials said. Caution tape blocks what was once a driveway as the Matanuska River erodes the bank next to the Glenn Highway on Friday, June 28, 2024 at mile 63 in Sutton. Loren Holmes ADN. Local residents had raised concerns about the rapid rate of erosion in the area but state officials last week said that section wasn t as high a priority as the one by Kings Mountain,slated for emergency repairsthis week. Officials said the erosion increased significantly Saturday, prompting the emergency work. The river eroded 50 feet of embankment in less than 48 hours, the final 10 feet in just three hours, they said. The highway connects Anchorage and MatSu with Glennallen before ending at the Richardson Highway, which connects drivers to the Alaska Highway and Canada. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 2024Anchorage Daily News.

Veteran actress Jin Yinji recently shared a story that takes the cake for the most dramatic first date ever. The 76yearold actress, who relocated to Singapore from South Korea in 1972, recounted in a recent episode of Just Swipe Lah the terrifying first date with Anthony Lee, her late husband. Lee, who died last October at the age of 85, had taken Jin to a scenic spot known as "99 Bends" along South Buona Vista Road. The area is notorious for its dangerous curves and isolated location. Little did Jin know that the scenic drive would take a turn for the worse. Upon arrival, Lee warned her, "We have to wait until there are no cars around, otherwise we might get robbed." New to Singapore, Jin scoffed at the idea, thinking it an exaggeration for a supposedly romantic spot. But her disbelief was shortlived. As she turned back, a car screeched to a halt, and three armed robbers emerged, brandishing drills. The situation escalated quickly. Before Lee could even explain the threat, the robbers surrounded them, demanding they move to the back seat. The ordeal was not just about their valuables. Jin said she was wearing hot pants at the time and the robbers harassed her. Panicking, she thought of ditching Lee and legging it. "We weren't even that close!" she argued. However, before things got out of hand, Lee, a former policeman, stepped in. Using his negotiation skills and fluency in Teochew which Jin did not understand at the time, he managed to talk them down. Lee convinced the robbers to take whatever they wanted as long as they left them unharmed. Host Xixi Lim, intrigued, asked if the harrowing experience sparked Jin's romantic feelings for Lee. The answer? "No". Her main concern was simply surviving the ordeal. Thankfully, the robbers eventually relented, leaving them stranded with a promise to retrieve their car keys later. "Only after returning safely to the hostel did I finally break down," Jin shared. Although the first date was undeniably terrifying, it led to a love story that lasted over 50 years.

A political activist, Dr Arthur Kennedy, has asked supporters of the Energy Minister, Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh, the running mate to the New Patriotic Party's presidential candidate in the 2024 elections to acknowledge his shortcomings and faults. According to him, attempting to downplay the public's concerns is not the prudent route. Since NPP s Presidential Candidate, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia selected Dr Prempeh as his running mate, a section of Ghanaians have raised concerns about his attitude with many accusing him of being arrogant. A popular remark referenced is when he challenged individuals advocating for the issuance of a loadshedding timetable topublish their own proposed schedulesamid the power crisis earlier this year. Another was his statement in 2021 in which hethreatened to lead a demonstrationin the Ashanti Region should the Keta Sea Defence Project be captured in the 2022 Budget. Nonetheless, some supporters of NPP have downplayed the accusation of arrogance and touted Dr Prempeh as a blunt individual. Contributing to the topic, Napo for 2024 Veep Job: Why the Arrogance Tag? onJoy FM s Newsfile,Dr Kennedy believed that the Energy Minister's remarks were out of place and shouldn't be whitewashed. He noted that Dr Prempeh s tag of arrogance, echoes sentiments from past incidents. Napo shouldn t have made the remark that he made both in relation to the dumsor timetable and the Keta Sea Defence Project. I am very sure that knowing Napo, in his quiet moments he would wish he had those words back, he said on Saturday. On the back of this, Dr Kennedy emphasised the importance of recognising these criticisms and urged the Energy Minister s supporters to acknowledge the validity of the concerns. Those who want to support him must not try and pretend that those who are making these charges that he is arrogant are ignorant. We are all complex people and we all have faults. Those are some of Napo's faults, but he has his strengths, he told host Samson Lardy Anyenini. Dr Kennedy also advised that the NPP balance their approach in promoting the newlynamed running mate. I think that those who promote him must not only tell us of his strengths but acknowledge that some of these things that he has said and done were not done the best way possible and that they would counsel him to do better, he noted.

By Parisa Hafezi. DUBAI Reuters The lowprofile moderate Masoud Pezeshkian, who has pledged to open Iran to the world and deliver freedoms its people have yearned for, has won the country's runoff presidential vote, the interior ministry said on Saturday. "By gaining majority of the votes cast on Friday, Pezeshkian has become Iran's next president," it said. The participation was around 50 in a tight race between Pezeshkian, the sole moderate in the original field of four candidates, and hardline former nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili, a staunch advocate of deepening ties with Russia and China. The runoff on Friday followed a June 28 ballot with historically low turnout, when over 60 of Iranian voters abstained from the snap election for a successor to Ebrahim Raisi, following his death in a helicopter crash. Videos on social media showed supporters of Pezeshkian dancing in streets in many cities and towns across the country and motorists honking car horns to cheer his victory. While the election is expected to have little impact on the Islamic Republic's policies, the president will be closely involved in selecting the successor to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's 85yearold Supreme Leader, who calls all the shots on top matters of state. Voter turnout has plunged over the past four years, which critics say underlines that support for clerical rule has eroded at a time of growing public discontent over economic hardship and curbs on political and social freedoms. Only 48 of voters participated in the 2021 election that brought Raisi to power, and turnout was 41 in a parliamentary election in March. The election coincides with escalating Middle East tensions due to the war between Israel and Iranian allies Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, as well as increased Western pressure on Iran over its fastadvancing uranium enrichment programme. The next president is not expected to produce any major policy shift on the nuclear programme or change in support for militia groups across the Middle East, but he runs the government daytoday and can influence the tone of Iran's foreign and domestic policy. FAITHFUL RIVALS. A triumph by Pezeshkian might promote a pragmatic foreign policy, ease tensions over nowstalled negotiations with major powers to revive a 2015 nuclear deal, and improve prospects for social liberalisation and political pluralism, analysts said. However, many voters are sceptical about Pezeshkian's ability to fulfil his campaign promises as the former health minister has publicly stated that he had no intention of confronting Iran's power elite of clerics and security hawks. "I did not vote last week but today I voted for Pezeshkian. I know Pezeshkian will be a lame duck president but still he is better than a hardliner," said Afarin, 37, owner of a beauty salon in the central city of Isfahan. Many Iranians have painful memories of the handling of nationwide unrest sparked by the death in custody of young IranianKurdish woman Mahsa Amini in 2022, which was quelled by a violent state crackdown involving mass detentions and even executions. "I will not vote. This is a big NO to the Islamic Republic because of Mahsa Amini. I want a free country, I want a free life," said university student Sepideh, 19, in Tehran. . Both candidates have vowed to revive the flagging economy, which has been beset by mismanagement, state corruption and sanctions reimposed since 2018 after the United States under thenPresident Donald Trump ditched the nuclear deal. "I will vote for Jalili. He believes in Islamic values. He has promised to end our economic hardships," retired employee Mahmoud Hamidzadegan, 64, said in the northern city of Sari.

Masoud Pezeshkian wins Iran's presidential runoff, defeating hardliner Saeed Jalili. Low turnout underscores public discontent over economic and social issues. Pezeshkian's victory may lead to a more pragmatic foreign policy and potential easing of tensions. Criticism exists over his ability to challenge the ruling elite. Both candidates promise economic revival in a country facing challenges including corruption and sanctions.

Even one reported case is a cause of concern to me, said Mr Hakim. The mayor emphasised that the vector borne disease could be fought and curbed by increasing awareness among citizens. Unless the people are more aware and they do not dispose of the waste like coconut shells and bhand earthen cups properly, dengue cannot be controlled, he added. The minister of the state UDMA Department attributed the rising number of cases in other municipal corporations and municipalities particularly in suburban areas, to the increasing urbaniz ation and concretisation of buildings. .

This was a wonderful cabaret debut show for Bornstein!. POPULAR. This reviewer's first thoughts when receiving an invitation to review this show was, "What is a Pizza Bagel?" I am wellversed in Aussie slang but was humored to learn this American slang term when Bornstein explained that it is someone of Italian and Jewish descent, and in this case, was her dad. Directed by perhaps the busiest cabaret director around,Lennie Watts, musically directed by the entertaining Aidan Davis and accompanied byLindsay Burstedton guitar andMatt Scharfglasson bass, this show is a delightful and strong cabaret debut by Bornstein. Entering the house on Saturday night with a rousing mashup ofMichael John LaChiusa s Welcome to my Party and I Love Being Here with You byPeggy Leeand Bill Schluger, Bornstein set the tone for the evening with both a hilarious and touching homage to her father, who sadly passed away during the pandemic. In between gorgeous renditions of songs likeJanet Jackson s Together Again and Winter byTori Amos, Bornstein shared memories of her father and the grief she felt at not being able to give him a proper sendoff. As we all remember, the pandemic left many families unable to say goodbye as hospitals had to keep visitors away and gatherings were limited. The art of cabaret lends itself to taking the audience on an emotional journey from sadness to joy and everything in between and Bornstein was able to do just that. . Other highlights included a sumptuous mashup ofAnnie Lennox s Sweet Dreams and I Put A Spell On You by Jay Hawkins, which included gorgeous threepart harmony with Davis and Burstedt providing additional vocals and showcasing Bornstein s big, brassy belt; and an incredibly fun Moulin Rouge inspired Jukebox Medley. . Overall, this was a touching homage to a wellloved father, who this reviewer is sure is beaming proudly from above. Photos byNatasha Castillo.

At first glance, the elections in the UK and France might not seem all that similar. The British General Election wasnot much of a contest, while in France the campaign hadall the features of a political drama. In the UK, the situation under a Labour government will be very much business as usual, while in France it is unlikely that there will be a return to the statusquo ante. But there is one major phenomenon the two nations have in common. Both Britain and France are afflicted with the scourge of negative voting . In the UK, citizens were constantly incited to vote against the Conservative Party. In France, the public was instructed to vote for anyone but Marine Le Pen s National Rally RN. Negative voting was hugely impactful in France. All parties of the left and centre ganged up against the RN, withcandidates stepping downafter the first round of elections last month to consolidate the antiRN vote. After the second round of elections over the weekend, the RNreceived the largest share of the vote 37.1 per cent, but only gained 142 seats in the French National Assembly. In contrast, the leftist coalition, the New Popular Front NFP, received 26.3 per cent of the vote, but managed to secure 188 seats. Even President Macron s centrist alliance,Ensemble, managed to win more seats than the RN. It received 161 seats, despite only winning 24.7 per cent of the vote. To put matters in perspective, the British Labour Party managed to win 412 parliamentary seats with a lower share of the vote than the RN, with 34 per cent to Le Pen s 37 per cent.

Negative voting played a significant role in recent elections in the UK and France. In both countries, there was a strong push against specific parties, leading to unexpected outcomes. In France, despite the National Rally receiving the largest share of the vote, it only gained 142 seats in contrast to other parties like the New Popular Front and President Macron's centrist alliance securing more seats with a lower percentage of the vote.

AMH is an independent media house free from political ties or outside influence. We have four newspapers: The Zimbabwe Independent, a business weekly published every Friday, The Standard, a weekly published every Sunday, and Southern and NewsDay, our daily newspapers. Each has an online edition. A Bulawayobased author Perfect Moyo has penned a 94page Afrocentric poetry anthology titled "Into the Dark". The book delves into the darker aspects of Africans' daily lives, topics rarely discussed openly. . Moyo observed a gap: vanishing aspects of African life that are not being spoken of. He felt compelled to explore these themes through his poetry. In an interview with Standard Style, Moyo shed light on societal ills fading away, eroding African pride. "There are some issues that lie in the dark and are less spoken of," Moyo explained. "I tried to venture into them, hence the title of the book. These issues include inferiority complex, war, poverty, climate change, political injustice, crime, marginalisation, and more.". . He said the poem inspiring the book's title speaks of a woman vanishing into the dark, representing all the things disappearing in Africa: peace, love, values, cultural standards, good climate conditions, and African pride. Moyo emphasised that his book is a call to action, a beacon of light in the darkness, and a testament to the resilience and strength of the African spirit. In his anthology, Moyo challenges Africans to reclaim their originality and reject the pressure to mimic Western approaches. "Nowadays, people would actually laugh at you for failing to speak English," Moyo observed. . "However, no one judges you for not speaking Shona. Many people try so hard to appear Western that they go to the extreme of changing their complexion with creams, injections, and pills. "Almost everything negative is labelled with 'black': black magic, black market, black book, black sheep, blackmail. This seems to be the norm.". This is Moyo's second published work. His 2020 publication, "Tribute to a Storm," offered hope to readers after heartbreak, reminding them that they can pick themselves up, live, and love again. .

ScreenshotFox News. Former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr reality checked critics of the Supreme Court s ruling granting former President Donald Trump absolute immunity for official acts taken while in office. Critics of Trump argued therulingplaces a president above the law by granting them the absolute power to execute any unlawful decision they desire. Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote in her dissenting decision that the majority s ruling reshapes the institution of the Presidency, claiming the President is now a king above the law. . Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends, Sotomayor wrote. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority s message today. . Barr argued the president only has absolute immunity when he is carrying out an official act protected by the U.S. Constitution. There s absolute immunity when he s acting directly under the constitution, carrying out a function under the constitution. There s presumptive immunity when he performs an official act, and the government has the burden of showing that it can prosecute him for that without impairing the executive function. And finally, there s no immunity for unofficial or private acts. And I think the and the practical effect of this is that the district court is gonna do what it really should have done at the beginning, which is the government really should have had it do, which is do the analysis so that the facts are going up to the Supreme Court, Barr said during a Monday segment. Bill Barr Reality Checks Trump Critics Following SCOTUS Rulingpic.twitter.comBM7KOGMMFl. Daily Caller DailyCallerJuly 1, 2024. . He accused Sotomayor of unfairly portraying the majority opinion, arguing that a president is still restricted from particular actions forbidden by the U.S. Constitution.RELATED: Literally The Definition Of Democracy Working : ExUS Attorney Roasts Dems For Attacking SCOTUS After Immunity Ruling. He has the right to go and tell the Department of Justice to investigate something, but an example used by Justice Sotomayor was, oh, then he can fabricate evidence, give the evidence to the department and use that evidence to indict them. He doesn t have authority to fabricate evidence, Barr continued. That s not carrying out an executive function. And the worst example, I think the one that makes no sense whatsoever is that he can use SEAL Teams 6 to kill a political opponent. The president has the authority to defend the country against foreign enemies armed conflict and so forth. He doesn t have the authority to go and assassinate people. . So whether he uses the SEAL Team or a private hitman, it doesn t matter. It s not a carrying out of his authority. So all these horror stories really are false, he added. Liberal pundits openlyfantasizedabout President Joe Biden assassinating or taking military action against political opponents. One pundit argued the decision meant Biden could direct SEAL Team 6 to assassinate Trump and Supreme Court justices as an official act of the executive branch. Many falsely argued Biden can direct the military to drone strike the residences of the justices and the former president, with one even appearing to urge the president to do so. Trump appealed Department of Justice DOJ Special Counsel Jack Smith s fourcount indictment relating to his alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 election on January 6, 2021. The high courtagreedto take up thecasein late February after the D.C. Circuit Court of AppealsruledTrump is not immune from prosecution in this particular case.

President Recep Tayyip Erdo an on Sunday said that he would soon congratulate Iran s newlyelected president, Masoud Pezeshkian, and said they hoped ties between the two countries would be better during his tenure. Iran is an important neighbor, and T rkiye is the only country in the region with the best relations with Iran, he told reporters. Pezeshkian won a runoff election on Friday against the ultraconservative Saeed Jalili to replace President Ebrahim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash in May. . The 69yearold reformist secured more than 16 million votes, around 54, with Jalili winning more than 13 million, roughly 44, out of about 30 million votes cast. The new president found wide coverage in Turkish media for his partTurkic roots. His father is an Iranian Azerbaijani, while his mother hails from Iran s Kurdish community. . Erdo an stated that Iran has been an important neighbor of T rkiye with its historic and cultural ties and they anticipated TurkishIranian ties will prevail with an increasing tempo and on a positive trend. . T rkiye and Iran put away their hostilities in the 17th century and, since then, pursued close ties, regardless of regime changes, replacing an empire with a republic, etc. But culturally close ties occasionally strained over other conflicts in the region. More recently, Ankara and Tehran found themselves on opposing sides in the Syria civil war, with Tehran backing the Assad regime and T rkiye siding with the opposition. Yet, the situation never actually translated into an allout conflict between the two neighbors while trade relations between T rkiye and Iran remained unaffected.

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan plans to congratulate newly-elected Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, expressing hope for improved relations between Turkey and Iran. Pezeshkian, of Turkic and Kurdish descent, won over 16 million votes. Although Turkey and Iran have historically strained ties due to regional conflicts like the Syrian war, trade relations remained intact.

One local vendor was Susy Poteet who runs the company Fun Flashers. She said she has been coming to the Killeen area's July Fourth celebrations for approximately 20 years.

The Vietnam Fruit and Vegetable Association VINAFRUIT said durian, dragon fruit, banana, and longan were major contributors to exports growth. Shipments to key markets also increased 10 50 from the same period last year. China, Thailand, and the Republic of Korea RoK remain large importers, with their purchases from Vietnam up 30 60 year on year by the end of May. China alone imported about 1.7 billion USD worth of Vietnamese fruits and vegetables in five months, soaring 33. Predicting the continuation of smooth fruit and vegetable exports, VINAFRUIT explained that domestic supply is abundant while demand in both traditional and potential markets is on the upward trend. In particular, such produce as durian, dragon fruit, pineapple, watermelon, mango, and longan are entering the main harvest season, which will contribute even more to sales to China, the largest market at present. The association noted that the peak durian harvest season in the Central Highlands, boasting the biggest area of this fruit in Vietnam, is in September and October. Meanwhile, the country posted record durian exports in the same period last year because the fruit from Thailand ran out of stock. The impact of El Nino has led to a nosedive in the global dragon fruit output this year. Supply from Mexico and South America for Europe and North America has shrunk but prices increased sharply due to a lean harvest. This is a chance for Vietnam to dominate those markets. To improve dragon fruit quality, the southcentral province of Binh Thuan approved a program on dragon fruit production following the Vietnamese Good Agricultural Practices VietGAP, planning to expand the area adopting the standards to 10,500ha by the end of 2024. The Mekong Delta province of Tien Giang is also boosting intensive dragon fruit farming for export, which now covers almost 8,600ha in such districts as Cho Gao, Go Cong Tay, and Go Cong Dong. This year, northern Bac Giang province, the largest lychee cultivation area in Vietnam, has seen the output plummeting by over 50 from 2023, but revenue is still higher than last year s thanks to good prices. VINAFRUIT attributed this result to the highestever fruit quality thanks to farmers better application of scientific and technical advances and experience, along with authorities active preparations such as stepping up trade promotion activities with domestic and foreign partners, and enhancing ties with the administrations of border localities to facilitate shipments. It exports about 24,785 tons of this fruit in 2024, equivalent to nearly 29 of total output, mainly to China and some others like the E.U., Japan, Australia, the U.S., and Canada. MARD said the formation and granting of production and packaging unit codes have also helped improve the reputation of Vietnamese farm produce. So far, as many as 7,558 production unit codes and 1,558 packaging unit codes have been granted. Source: VNA. Type the code from the image

Vietnam's fruit and vegetable exports have increased, with durian, dragon fruit, banana, and longan being major contributors. Key markets like China, Thailand, and South Korea have seen a significant rise in imports from Vietnam. The country is set to dominate markets due to decreased global dragon fruit output. Efforts to improve fruit quality and expand production areas are underway to further boost exports.

The product, to be released Friday and sold through a group company, reduces the number of operational steps involved in intracytoplasmic sperm injection, an in vitro fertilization method, by about 75. Nikon developed the product as demand for fertility treatment is growing amid women's advances in society. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection is a fertilization treatment method in which a sperm is injected into an egg. While conventional microscopes require the light amount and lens to be adjusted at each of the six major phases of the entire process, the new product allows users to register complicated settings for the phases in advance and switch between registered settings with a button. To prevent operational errors, the microscope gives a warning on its display if a setting is used that is different from the one already registered. The share of children born with assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization tends to increase year by year. In 2021, the figure stood at 8.6, up 1.4 percentage points from a year before. The number and share of such children are expected to rise further after the treatment became eligible for public health insurance coverage in 2022. Nikon and Tokyobased Evident dominate the Japanese market for microscopes for intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Nikon has been selling microscopes for assisted reproduction for more than 40 years. This is the first time in eight years for the company to release a new model in the category.

. While rumours swirl aboutPrince Harry's potential return to the UK to reconcile withthe Royal Family, scepticism remains high among experts due to his track record of missed opportunities. The Duke has faced a barrage of perceived snubs, from being left off the Trooping the Colour invitation list in June, to missing out on a meeting withKing Charlesin May and not being included in the guest list for the wedding of his good friend, the Duke of Westminster, casting doubt over his reconciliation efforts. Jennie Bond, a seasoned Royal commentator and exBBCRoyal correspondent, expressed her doubts: "If Harry had really wanted to confront his family and patch things up, he would surely have allotted more time to his recent visits so that his father at least could make arrangements to see him.". She further speculated on the likelihood ofPrince Williamextending an olive branch: "I don't think there's any chance of William wanting to do so, particularly with all he has on his plate right now. So, I'll believe this when I see it, but it will be lovely if he could indeed spend some time, perhaps at Balmoral, during the summer and make peace with his father.". . A mole told Closer magazine: "He can't believe it's come to this, and he's now saying he's going to fly over and force them to face him. He's still a prince, after all; they're still his family, and whether they like it or not, he's refusing to just be cast aside. He continues to be heartbroken and confused by the way he's being treated by the royals. It's as though he doesn't exist anymore.". . An insider has revealed that Harry is finding it extraordinarily difficult to "bond" with Kate Middleton, his once "beloved" sisterinlaw. The insider added: "He's not getting updates on his father or Kate's health, and even basic communications are pretty well nonexistent.". At his most recent event, Harry got candid about his mother's demise, advising a gathering of bereaved children against "suppressing" their emotions, reflecting on his personal regret. Speaking to a group of children dealing with loss, Prince. Harry recounted holding onto grief for too long could "eat away" at an individual, sharing insights from his personal experience. "You convince yourself that the person you've lost wants you, or you need to be sad for as long as possible to prove to them that they are missed. But then there's this realisation of, no, they must want me to be happy," he confessed. We use your signup to provide content in ways you've consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

Indian actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu has been accused of spreading medical misinformation after she shared a post on her Instagram advocating alternative treatment for viral infections. Prabhu, who has been appearing in Tamil and Telugu language films for over a decade and has 35 million followers on Instagram shared a photo of herself using hydrogen peroxide nebulisation. Before taking medication for a common viral, consider trying an alternative approach, the actor wrote in her nowdeleted post. One option is to nebulise with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and distilled water, she said. Works like magic. Avoid unnecessary use of tablets. . Her post invited criticism from doctors who said inhaling hydrogen peroxide could cause damage to the lungs. Dr Cyriac Abby Philips, who runs an account called The Liver Doc where he posts about medical misinformation online, called Prabhu health illiterate , prompting a verbal spat between the two. Providing studies that show the risk of nebulising with hydrogen peroxide, Dr Philips said the actor should be charged for endangering public health and fined or put behind bars .

Monday, 01 Jul 2024. KUALA LUMPUR: The local bourse is expected to build on last Friday's gains as investor sentiment rose on signs of returning foreign funds into emerging markets.

ByMichael KatzMonday, 08 July 2024 09:34 PM EDT. If Democrats want to replace Joe Biden as their presidential nominee for November's election, it won't be through the 25th Amendment, Victoria Toensing, a former deputy assistant attorney general, toldNewsmaxon Monday. The25th Amendment, ratified in 1967 in the wake of John F. Kennedy's assassination, deals with presidential disability and succession. It states the vice president, in this case Kamala Harris, would replace the president if they die in office or resign, or if members of the president's cabinet declare the president unable to fulfill the duties of their office. It has been raised often since Biden's disastrous debate performance against former President Donald Trump on June 27, which amplified fears of his longsuspected cognitive decline. Biden, 81, the oldestserving president in U.S. history, displayed halting speech, confused rambling, a loss of concentration, a stiff gait, and a lack of facial animation during the debate. Biden has refused to withdraw from the race, even though Republicans have capitalized politically on his debate performance. Toensing told"American Agenda"if Biden does step aside, it won't be because of the 25th Amendment. "It's not going to be. It's just not going to be," Toensing said. "But I commend the Republicans for using it as a political ploy. I think it's very good. They don't usually do that. But Harris is going to have to get the majority of the Cabinet to say that Biden is not competent. You think Harris is going to do that? She doesn't want to undo herself. And the majority of the Cabinet, are you kidding? Democrats don't do that. "Then they have to tell the Congress that Biden is incompetent. Then Biden gets to come back and say, oh, yes, I'm really competent, and then the Cabinet has to vote again with the majority saying he's not competent. And then, and here's the kicker, it goes to both Houses of Congress for a twothirds vote. Do you think that's going to happen? No.". About NEWSMAX TV:.

Replacing Joe Biden as the Democratic presidential nominee won't happen through the 25th Amendment. This amendment addresses presidential disability and succession, with Kamala Harris potentially replacing Biden. Despite concerns about Biden's cognitive decline, it's unlikely he will step aside using this method. The process involves multiple steps, including Cabinet and Congress approvals. The 25th Amendment is being used politically by Republicans, but the likelihood of Biden being replaced remains low.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission. Former President Barack Obamahas confided in his allies that President Biden s weak debate performance last week will make it more difficult for the commander in chief to win in November, according to a report. Obama, 62, already believed his former vice president s path to reelection was going to be a tough road, and he now feels Biden s Election Day prospects are even more precarious,the Washington Post reportedTuesday, citing several people familiar with his remarks to Democrats that have reached out to him. The 44th president reached out to Biden, 81, after last week s debate and offered to serve as a sounding board and provide counsel as the 2024 race heats up, according to the outlet. Obama s office did not respond to The Post s request for comment. A Biden campaign spokesperson told the Washington Post that the president is grateful to have his former boss s unwavering support. . Obama has publicly acknowledged that Biden s first of two scheduled 2024 showdowns with former President Donald Trump went poorly, but he hasn t, at least in public, commented on the impact the disastrous performance may have had on the race. Bad debate nights happen. Trust me, I know, he wrote on X last Friday, while still urging voters to back his former VP over the 78yearold presumptive Republican nominee. This election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself, Obama insisted. Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit. Last night didn t change that, and it s why so much is at stake in November. . The Washington Post noted that Obama has long worried about Biden s chances against Trump, reporting that the former president has warned Biden on several occasions in recent months about how difficult winning a second term will be. He also expressed to allies just before the debate that he had concerns about the state of the race. Obama has not yet reached the conclusion that Biden should drop out of the race, the report noted. The former president has appeared alongside Biden at two campaign fundraisers in recent months one inLos Angelesand another inNew York City both of which raised more than 55 million in campaign contributions.

Feedback. Foldable devices have emerged as a new frontier in the world of smartphones, promising innovative form factors and enhanced functionality. Tech Today has learnt that Realme has been exploring the possibility of launching a foldable phone. We conducted extensive testing and development on foldable technology, Francis Wong, Head of Product Marketing at Realme revealed in a conversation with Tech Today at an event in Bangkok, Thailand. However, after careful consideration, the company decided to shelve the project for the time being. The decision to halt the foldable phone s development was driven by several factors according to Wong. Our primary focus is on delivering products that meet the highest standards of quality and user experience, Wong explains. During the testing phase, Realme identified challenges related to durability, user experience, and costeffectiveness. We want to ensure that any new product we introduce aligns with our commitment to excellence, he emphasises. Foldable phones, while innovative, come with a unique set of challenges, particularly in terms of durability and longterm reliability. Ensuring the foldable mechanism can withstand daily use and wear was a significant concern, Wong notes. Additionally, the production costs associated with foldable displays and hinges are currently high, making it difficult to offer such a device at an affordable price point. Realme s decision to shelve the foldable phone project also reflects the company s strategic priorities. We are focusing our resources on areas where we see the most potential for growth and innovation, says Wong. By prioritising other projects, Realme aims to deliver products that offer the best value and experience to its customers. The company is channelling its efforts into enhancing its existing product lines and introducing new innovations in other areas. Our goal is to stay ahead of the curve and offer products that meet the evolving needs of our users, says Wong. By focusing on quality, performance, and affordability, Realme aims to maintain its position as a leading player in the smartphone market. Meanwhile, the company is set to expand its ecosystem with the anticipated launch of a new smartwatch later this year. We have had some successful smartwatch models in the past. Now this year, we're going to bring a smartwatch to India, Wong told Tech Today. Wong further commented that the watch won't be released in many of the other global markets. "We believe that Indian consumers are more adaptive to our IoT products.". The upcoming smartwatch's specs and name is being kept under wraps for now but it is expected to build on the success of Realme s previous wearable devices, offering enhanced features and improved performance.

A 43yearold Singaporean man suspected of being involved in drug trafficking has been arrested in Vietnam, said the Central Narcotics Bureau CNB. His involvement was uncovered during an investigation in February 2021, said CNB in a June 30 statement. The man, who operated from overseas, allegedly supplied drugs to associates in Singapore for subsequent trafficking and sale. Immigration records showed he had left Singapore on Sept 27, 2019. CNB subsequently reached out to its foreign counterparts for information on his whereabouts. Following close cooperation with the CounterNarcotics Police Department of Vietnam s Ministry of Public Security, the man was deported and handed over to CNB on June 28. CNB deputy director of operations Leon Chan attributed the arrest to the cooperation and trust between the bureau and its Vietnamese counterpart. He added that the man, who believed he could carry on supplying drugs to associates in Singapore with impunity simply by setting up a base in Vietnam.. was badly mistaken . The man, whose name CNB declined to reveal, was charged with drug trafficking in relation to the February 2021 investigation upon his return to Singapore. Following the same investigation, a 39yearold man was arrested with about 472g of heroin. He has been convicted and sentenced.

Former President John Mahama is chastising the governing New Patriotic Party NPP over what he describes as an unprecedented level of corruption. According to him, the manner in which the AkufoAddoled administration runs the country leaves much to be desired. "What we have now, obviously never and should never be a yardstick for governance. My goal is to launch a renewed fight against corruption," he said on Sunday. Addressing journalists at a press conference in Accra, the NDC flagbearer indicated that an NDC administration will form a formidable team to look into corrupt activities that took place under the current administration. "..and Ghanaians can be assured that drastic steps will be taken to punish the corrupt officials and the accomplices in this present administration. No actor in this NPP corruption enterprise will be spared and we will also take action to repossess what has been unlawfully stolen from the Ghanaian people.". He added that if elected, his administration will keep his appointees in check. This event is part of his engagement with media and stakeholders ahead of the 2024 election. The Multimedia Group.

The Missing Persons Unit MPU at the headquarters of the Criminal Investigation Department CID has resorted to scientific investigation to unravel the mysterious disappearance of the Tema West Women s Organiser of the opposition National Democratic Congress NDC. As the search to locate her intensifies, the newly created MPU, The Chronicle can say, is pursuing vital leads that may take Investigators not too long to bring the disturbing situation to finality. The paper s investigation reveals that the constituency women s organiser got married to Apostle Elijah Arthur about four years ago. On her part, she was blessed with an 18year old daughter from a previous relationship, whereas the Apostle also had a son with another woman. About twoandhalf months ago, she unfortunately suffered a miscarriage, which would have been the only child between the couple. A family source who spoke to the paper, on condition of anonymity, states that just like in any marital situation the marriage cannot be insulated and that the immediate family members can attest to this circumstance. A year into their marriage, the then Constituency Deputy Women s Organiser was bombarded with a number of threatening text messages from unknown sources. She was notified that, either she quits her position as the Deputy Women s Organiser or her house in Sakumono would be burnt down. The threat was reported to the police for action, but no arrest was made. The house was eventually burnt down and till date there is no trace of the arsonist. It is, therefore, not clear if her sudden disappearance has link to the earlier threats, which was carried out, or due to marital problems, according to the worried family source. When The Chronicle contacted Apostle Elijah Arthur on phone the disturbed man of God appealed to all and sundry to volunteer any information in connection with his wife s whereabouts to the police, who are working assiduously to unravel the mystery. He stated that the wife travels to Lome and Lagos to purchase items to Ghana and even though he made contact with her partners in the francophone West African capital, there was no information on her movement. Apostle Elijah Arthur added that, his effort at locating the wife was yet to be extended to Lagos, in Nigeria, for any lead to assist the police. The source continued that the partnership with the telecommunications service providers is yielding fruits. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. . . .

Russia has launched a barrage of missiles on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities in a rare daytime attack, killing more than 20 people and hitting a key children's hospital, officials say. Loginor signup to continue reading. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said the Russian forces fired more than 40 missiles targeting different cities and damaging infrastructure and commercial and residential buildings in different Ukrainian cities. Kyiv city authorities said nine people were killed and at least 33 were wounded in the strike on the capital. Another three people died in Pokrovsk in eastern Ukraine when missiles hit an industrial facility, the Donestk regional governor said. "All services are involved to save as many people as possible," Zelenskiy said on the Telegram messaging app. "And the whole world should use all its determination to finally put an end to the Russian strikes.". Russia has repeatedly denied targeting civilians. The major attack on Ukraine came as Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban met Chinese President Xi Jinping to discuss a potential Ukraine peace deal, paying an unexpected visit to Beijing. It is also the eve of a threeday NATO summit in Washington, which will look at how to reassure Ukraine of the alliance's unwavering support and offer Ukrainians hope that their country can come through Europe's biggest conflict since World War II. Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said the attack on the capital was one of the heaviest since the start of Russia's invasion in February 2022. He said the city's main children's hospital was damaged in the strike. Windows were smashed and panels ripped off. Parents holding babies walked out into the street, dazed and sobbing. "We heard an explosion, then we were showered with debris," Svitlaka Kravchenko, 33, told Reuters after she and her husband Viktor, went out from the shelter. Their twomonth old baby had been unharmed, but Svitlana had suffered cuts, and their car was buried under the rubble of the destroyed building across the courtyard from the main ward. "It was scary. I couldn't breathe, I was trying to cover my baby. I was trying to cover him with this cloth so that he could breathe," she said. Local and regional authorities said industrial facilities, infrastructure and residential and commercial buildings were damaged in Kyi, Kryviy Rih, Dnipro, Pokrovsk, Kramatarosk and others. With AP.

ForgotUsernameorPassword. . Date. MENAFN The United States has decided to suspend this year s Noble Partner military exercise with Georgia as part of a comprehensive review of bilateral relations. This decision, announced by the United States Department of Defense, marks a significant pause in the annual maneuvers that have been conducted since 2015 and have traditionally involvedtroopsfrom multipleNATOmember states.The move comes in the wake of recent legislative developments in Georgia, particularly the enactment of the Transparency of Foreign Influence Act. This legislation, passed despite opposition protests, requires NGOs,mediaoutlets, and individuals receiving substantial foreign funding to register as entities promoting foreign interests. Critics argue that this law undermines democratic freedoms, while Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze defends it as a measure to enhance transparency, citing similarities with laws in Western nations.However, the new law has drawn international criticism, with the United States and European Union condemning its implications. Washington has gone further by announcing visa restrictions on Georgian politicians who supported the legislation. The strained relations were exacerbated by Prime Minister Kobakhidze's allegations against the United States and other Western entities, accusing them of interference in Georgian domestic affairs, specifically referring to alleged support for recent internal unrest.In response to what it termed as "false accusations" by the Georgian government, the US Department of Defense indefinitely postponed the 2024 iteration of Exercise Noble Partner, originally scheduled for July 25 August 6. The decision underscores growing tensions and the evolving nature of United StatesGeorgia relations amid geopolitical shifts and internal policy changes in Georgia.The suspension of the military exercise is seen as a symbolic gesture reflecting broader concerns over democratic principles and foreign policy alignments in the region. As both sides navigate these challenges, the future trajectory of United StatesGeorgia relations remains uncertain, influenced by ongoing geopolitical dynamics and domestic political developments in both countries.MENAFN08072024000045015687ID1108417132.

The United States suspends the Noble Partner military exercise with Georgia due to recent legislative developments. This decision follows the enactment of the Transparency of Foreign Influence Act in Georgia, drawing criticism and visa restrictions from the US and EU.
