US military hopes to learn from victim of chimp attack | BOSTON (AP) — Charla Nash never served in the military. She was horribly disfigured, not in combat, but in a 2009 attack by a rampaging chimpanzee. The Pentagon, though, is watching her recovery closely.
The U.S. military paid for Nash’s full face transplant in 2011, as well as face transplants for a small group of other civilians. The agency is also underwriting Nash’s follow-up treatment at a combined cost estimated in the hundreds of thousands of dollars in the hope that some of the things it learns can help young, seriously disfigured soldiers returning from war.
In the coming weeks, for example, Nash will take part in a military-funded experiment in which doctors at Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital will try to wean her off the anti-rejection drugs she has been taking since the transplant.
Nash jokes about sometimes feeling like a science project. But the 61-year-old daughter of an Air Force veteran said she gets real satisfaction out of letting the doctors use her for research, and she sees it as an opportunity to help wounded soldiers and “do something good out of all of this bad.”
“They asked me, could they? I said, ‘Yeah, I’d be thrilled to help out in any way I could,’” said Nash, a former Connecticut resident who now lives on her own in Boston with the help of part-time aides.
Nash lost her nose, lips, eyelids and hands when she was mauled by her employer’s 200-pound pet chimpanzee in Stamford, Connecticut. Doctors also had to remove her eyes because of a disease transmitted by the chimp.
She later received new facial features taken from a dead woman. She also underwent a double hand transplant, but it failed when her body rejected the tissue.
Now blind, Nash spends most of her days listening to AM radio and books on tape — lately, “War and Peace” — in her modest, second-story apartment. She also exercises a couple of days a week with a trainer at a gym to build her strength and stay healthy. A GoFundMe account is being set up to help raise money for prosthetic hands, which would not be covered by the Department of Defense.
Her life today is a stark contrast to her younger years, when she was a barrel racer on the rodeo circuit from the 1970s through the mid-1990s. Over the years, she also did some horse-jumping, worked on a farm and manned a computer help desk. She was working as a dispatcher for a towing company at the time of the attack.
About every six weeks, Nash undergoes lab tests for the military at Brigham and Women’s. She is also subjected to MRIs and CT scans to determine how well her brain is sending signals to her new face. In addition, doctors examine how well the arteries are delivering blood to the transplant.
The military is also interested in such things as any scarring around the mouth and how well her eyelids work.
“It makes sense for us to look at the civilian community and the experiences that are gained through the involvement of non-uniformed people to assess if this is a good solution for the military,” said Dr. Brian Pfister, a portfolio manager for the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command’s Clinical and Rehabilitative Medicine research program.
About 35 full or partial face transplants have been performed worldwide since the first one was done in France in 2005. The Defense Department estimates 560 soldiers have suffered severe facial wounds in Iraq and Afghanistan. Of those, about 50 or 60 might be candidates for a face transplant, Pfister said.
The Pentagon is providing grants to 14 medical facilities across the U.S. through its hand and face transplantation program. The face and the extremities are the two most frequently injured parts of the body in war.
The new experiment, involving the suspension of anti-rejection drugs, will eventually include other patients, and its findings could potentially affect hundreds of thousands of people, military and civilian alike, doctors said.
The immunosuppression drugs that transplant patients are typically given for the rest of their lives carry such risks as cancer, viral infections and kidney damage. Because of those dangers, many transplants of non-vital body parts, such as thumbs, are not considered worth doing.
But that could change if the drugs don’t have to be a lifelong commitment.
“Suddenly, it’s not as crazy to think about transplanting individual fingers or an ear,” said Dr. Bohdan Pomahac, who led Nash’s transplant surgery team.
Nash will be switched to a different substance, Interleukin-2, which is normally used to treat skin and kidney cancers. The hope is that it will promote growth of good cells that protect the transplant while attacking those that want to reject it.
Pomahac said Nash is doing “remarkably well” and has experienced very few rejection episodes, making her a good candidate for the experiment.
“I think there’s an overarching purpose in her life. She really wants to help in whatever way she can,” he said. “She’s very much a forward-looking woman.” | {

Family of Gilgo Beach serial killer suspect Rex Heuermann return home | The tearful family of suspected Gilgo serial killer Rex Heuermann has returned home to Long Island nearly two weeks after he was first arrested.
Asa Ellerup and her two children, Victoria, 26, and Christopher, 32, looked solemn as they arrived back at the torn-up property at 10.30am on Thursday, with their family dog.
The family was last seen crossing a Best Buy parking lot after Asa filed for divorce from the suspected murderer.
Suffolk County detectives accompanied them back into their home and were seen leaving less than an hour later.
Asa clutched a black handbag as she entered the home for the first time since Heuermann's arrest, with her daughter carrying a blue water bottle, bag and notebook.
Christopher became emotional as he sat on a bench outside the property in Massapequa Park with his mother, who looked overwhelmed.
He walked outside the home to take the pooch outside before re-entering the property in Massapequa Park. Multiple cats were removed from the property in their absence.
Heuermann, 59, had lived in the property with his wife, stepson, and daughter for more than a decade after buying the home from his mother in 1994.
His wife was at the property when authorities raided it on July 14, with her lawyer saying the family had been 'blindsided' by the murder charges.
Robert Macedonio said: 'Obviously this has been a shocking time for them and a pretty difficult time to comprehend.
'As with any family, it's extremely upsetting and they're totally shocked and caught off guard. The family doesn't want to make any further comment than that.'
He added that police seized the family's passports, computers, phones and iPads as part of the investigation.
Cops finally finished scouring the property for evidence, after digging up the backyard of the property and used ground-penetrating radar to search for any disturbances.
Authorities spent 12 days removing possible evidence from the property, after discovering a soundproof room under the home.
Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney said cops had found a 'tremendous amount of information' during the search, which included cadaver dogs.
They removed 297 guns from the vault, and warned that authorities have to a 'massive amount of material' to catalogue and analyze which would take some time.
Heuermann was arrested on July 13 outside of his property in Midtown Manhattan and charged with the deaths of sex workers Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman and Amber Lynn Costello.
Officials say that he is the main suspect in the murder of Maureen Brainard-Barnes, who was discovered on Gilgo beach in 2010, and anticipate charging him with her killing.
The architect pleaded not guilty to killing the three women, and is next due to appear in court on August 1.
He is also being investigated for the murders of six others whose bodies were found in Gilgo Beach in 2011.
Sources claim that some of the victims may have been killed in the architects home, but law enforcement say they are unable to confirm if this is the case.
Heuermann is accused of killing the women while his family was out of town, with investigators finding his hair and his wife's on the bodies of some of the alleged victims.
He is accused of killing them, before posing them in a specific way and wrapping them in burlap bags which were later found at Gilgo Beach.
Since his bombshell arrest in Manhattan, the once quiet block where the married father lived, has become the scene of a media circus and a popular destination for crime junkies.
Dozens of people from all parts of Long Island and further abroad have been seen stopping to catch a glimpse of the active crime scene, as forensic teams comb the Massapequa Park home for evidence.
But locals say the influx of visitors has made their lives hell, and they're fearful of how much worse it'll get when police conclude their investigation at the property this week.
Mayor Daniel Pearl confirmed that they are looking into purchasing the First avenue home, and would possibly demolish it to discourage ghouls from seeking souvenir photos, or stealing items to sell.
Officers are stationed around the property at all hours to ward off unwanted visitors and property is also under 24-hour video surveillance. Anyone found ogling the home will be issued a $150 summons.
Detectives are now looking into unsolved murders across the country to see if they are linked to Heuermann.
Cops are probing whether he operated in the Atlantic City area, and have been interviewing jailed sex workers who interacted with him.
The investigation now covers four states - Heuermann owns a time-share in Las Vegas and a property in South Carolina - and police are investigating if he could be connected to any unsolved killings there.
Officers executed search warrants at his home in Chester, South Carolina, and recovered a green Chevrolet Avalanche truck they believe is connected to the suspect and one of the murders and transported it back to New York.
Cops in Rock Hill, just 20 miles from where Heuermann bought the wild 18-acre plot of land, where his brother lives, confirmed they are looking anew at the case of Aaliyah Bell Hall who went missing in 2014.
Investigators revealed that they moved to arrest Heuermann over fears that the suspected murderer could strike again.
Cops had Heuermann under surveillance since last year, and had planned to continue to follow him as they built their case.
They decided to make the arrest in the interest of 'public safety,' Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney. | {

5 dead, 2 expats, in shooting at restaurant in Mali capital | BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — A masked gunman sprayed bullets in a restaurant popular with foreigners in Mali’s capital early Saturday, killing five people including a French person and a Belgian national, officials and witnesses said.
Al Mourabitoun, or The Sentinels, a northern Mali jihadist group allied with al-Qaida, claimed responsibility for the attack, according to the Mauritanian news website Al-Akhbar. It often receives messages from Malian extremists.
Nine people were wounded including two experts at the U.N. mission, said the U.N. stabilization mission in Mali in a statement. The two are Swiss soldiers and are being flown to Senegal for treatment, said the Swiss Defense Ministry.
Witness Ibrahim Coulibaly described the attack.
“I saw a masked person with a great weapon like a machine gun go up the stairs to the bar and at first I thought it was a joke, but a few second later, I heard a first shot. People started shouting and then came a burst of gunfire. It was then that I realized it was serious. I hid,” said Coulibaly.
“Then the hooded man came down the stairs, past the bar, and he saw the Belgian citizen who was getting into his car and he shot him,” said Coulibaly. “And then the attacker got in a car and left. He did not talk to anyone, he said nothing.”
Another witness, Hamadou Dolo, gave a different account, saying he saw two gunmen run out of the establishment and jump into a car driven by an accomplice.
Mali’s president and prime minister visited the scene and called it “a criminal and terrorist act.” A government statement said an investigation has been opened and pledged to bring the perpetrators to book.
France and Belgium condemned the attack at La Terrasse, the restaurant and bar in Bamako, and their foreign ministers confirmed the deaths of their nationals.
Belgian Foreign Minister Didier Reynders denounced a “cowardly act of terror.” French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said the Frenchman killed was 31 years old. Fabius said “everything must be done to find those responsible for this crime.”
The Belgian killed was a security officer for the European Union, said EU president Donald Tusk. “The European Union will not be intimidated by terrorism, at home or abroad,” said Tusk. “We will remain steadfast in support of Mali and its people.”
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, currently visiting France, called the attack an act of cowardice. “In the end, that only strengthens our resolve to fight terrorism in all of its forms wherever it exists.” Kerry said such acts don’t intimidate but have the “exact opposite effect.”
Two people who were at the scene were questioned to determine what happened, said a police officer who spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the press.
Mali police investigators and French and U.N. police officers visited the scene Saturday.
La Terrasse is in Bamako’s Hippodrome neighborhood where many expatriates live is a restaurant, bar and nightclub popular on a Friday night for salsa dancing.
French President Francois Hollande’s office said security had immediately been tightened around French facilities. A statement from his office said the French embassy has set up a crisis cell to help expatriates in Bamako.
Hollande spoke with Mali’s President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita to show his support on Saturday. Hollande and the Malian president “decided on common measures to strengthen security in Mali,” a statement from the French president’s office said without elaborating on measures. They also looked at ways to cooperate in the investigation.
France immediately opened a judicial inquiry, a standard procedure when a citizen is killed which allows French officials to carry out a parallel investigation, according to a judicial official in Paris who spoke on condition of anonymity because she is not authorized to speak on the matter.
The U.N. Security Council, in a press statement issued Saturday, “condemned in the strongest terms” the terrorist attack in Bamako and called on the government of Mali “to swiftly investigate this attack and bring the perpetrators to justice.”
French forces led a military operation in early 2013 that largely expelled al-Qaida-linked extremists from a vast area they had controlled in northeastern Mali. The military operation in that region continues, and sporadic combat and clashes take place there. Violence has been rare in Bamako despite the continued upheaval in the north. | {

Horrifying moment snake charmer is fatally bitten by his pet cobra | This is the horrifying moment a snake charmer was fatally bitten by his pet cobra while trying to kiss it during a village show in Indonesia.
Abdul Munir, 20, was taunting the killer reptile on the dusty ground near his home in Central Java, Indonesia, on Wednesday afternoon.
He was about to kiss the beast when the enraged reptile reared up and bit him on his nose - sinking a fiery burst of deadly venom into his bloodstream.
Abdul was rushed to the local clinic but the toxins had already paralysed his vital organs and he could not be revived before medics had the chance to send him to a hospital.
The young man was pronounced dead at the Kusuma Wardani Clinic in the village of Jatiharjo.
Adjunct Commissioner Siswanto, Chief of the Panunggalan Sector Police, said: 'The incident occurred at around 4:45 pm. Then it was reported at 7.20 pm.
'We received the report that the victim was bitten on the nose when he was about to kiss the snake's head.
'He became dizzy and fell before local residents evacuated him to a health service. The victim died while being treated at the clinic.'
His family had just arrived to see him before he succumbed to the snake bite around 20 minutes later. His body has now been taken away for religious rites and cremation.
Video footage shows the fatal moment Abdul moved closer to his snake so that the two were face-to-face.
But the snake suddenly lunged for his face in the middle of the show, clinging to his nose with its teeth as he tried to move away.
Police said that Abdul and several friends had made money by performing primitive snake charming shows at different villages in the Grobogan Regency of the archipelago.
The troupe of reptile enthusiasts would collect tips from locals and sell them their wares. However, the deadly hustle was cut short following the death in Pulokulon district.
Abdul's friends told police they would not carry on with their dangerous hobby.
Police chief Siswanto added: 'The victim was in the process of being transferred to a larger hospital better equipped to handle cobra bites when he died.
'We have advised everybody not to continue this kind of activity as it is very dangerous.'
Cobras are one of the world's deadliest snakes. A single bite attacks the nervous system causing paralysis, respiratory failure, and death.
However, cobras will also inflict 'dry bites' without releasing venom if they sense that only a warning is needed to remove a threat. | {

"But the snake suddenly lunged for his face in the middle of the show, clinging to his nose with its teeth as he tried to move away.",
"Police said that Abdul and several friends had made money by performing primitive snake charming shows at different villages in the Grobogan Regency of the archipelago.",
"The troupe of reptile enthusiasts would collect tips from locals and sell them their wares. However, the deadly hustle was cut short following the death in Pulokulon district.",
"Abdul's friends told police they would not carry on with their dangerous hobby.",
"Police chief Siswanto added: 'The victim was in the process of being transferred to a larger hospital better equipped to handle cobra bites when he died.",
"'We have advised everybody not to continue this kind of activity as it is very dangerous.'",
"Cobras are one of the world's deadliest snakes. A single bite attacks the nervous system causing paralysis, respiratory failure, and death.",
"However, cobras will also inflict 'dry bites' without releasing venom if they sense that only a warning is needed to remove a threat."

Mexico closes clinic where Australian woman died | MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s medical regulatory agency has closed the operating rooms of a Baja California hospital where a young Australian woman died following cosmetic procedure on her buttocks.
The agency said Monday that the doctor who performed the procedure is under investigation for possible medical negligence. It identified him as Victor Manuel Ramirez Hernandez.
The Del Valle Surgical Hospital In Mexicali Baja California was partly closed and will face fines after it was found to have expired medications, equipment that had not been maintained and other failings.
The commission said the Australian woman died March 20 after undergoing procedures on her buttocks and abdomen, but her name could not be immediately verified by consular offices.
Mexican authorities have suspended 80 plastic surgery and esthetic clinics or offices for violations since late 2012. | {

Struggling families to get £94 cost of living payments | Families who are struggling with the cost of living crisis are due to receive a payment of £94 directly into their bank accounts in the coming days.
The money comes out of a pot of £842 million from the Household Support Fund, administered by the Department for Work and Pensions.

Walsall Council will be making direct payments to households in receipt of council tax reduction and also have children included on the claim.
The payment will be £140 per child paid in three instalments during the year - the first payment was made in April and the other two will be made in August and December.
So, if you're eligible, you will be getting a £94 payment by next week.
They are also proposing additional help through Walsall’s Local Welfare Provision Scheme and households can make a direct application for support.

Man, 40, to go on trial for killing brother-in-law in shooting spree | A 40-year-old man is set to stand trial in Glasgow over claims he murdered his brother-in-law in a shooting spree on the Isle of Skye.
Finlay MacDonald is accused of killing father-of-six John MacKinnon, 47, with a shotgun at his home in the village of Teangue on the 10 August last year.
MacDonald is separately charged with the attempted murder of his wife Rowena MacDonald, 33, and two other people the same day.
He is accused of stabbing his wife and killing MacKinnon before travelling 30 miles to the village of Dornie and shooting John Donald MacKenzie, 63, and his wife Fay, 63.
MacDonald, who denies all charges against him, will now face a trial at the High Court in Glasgow on 14 May 2024, following a preliminary hearing today.
Prosecutors claim MacDonald killed Mr MacKinnon by repeatedly shooting him with a shotgun, after having previously shown 'malice and ill will' towards the father-of-six.
MacDonald is earlier alleged to have tried to kill his wife at her home in the village of Tarskavaig.
He is accused of struggling with her and repeatedly stabbing her with a knife, in an attack that caused severe injury, permanent disfigurement, permanent impairment and endangered her life.
Prosecutors allege the offence was aggravated 'by involving abuse of your partner or ex-partner'.
After killing Mr MacKinnon, MacDonald is alleged to have attempted to murder chiropractor John Donald MacKenzie and his wife Fay.
The alleged attacks on the couple - both 63 at the time - happened around 30 miles away at their home in Dornie, Wester Ross.
MacDonald is said to have fired a shotgun at Mrs MacKenzie hitting her on the head and body.
He is then accused of discharging the weapon at her husband striking the man on the body.
Similar to the charge involving his brother-in-law, MacDonald is also said to have directed previous ill-will towards Mr MacKenzie.
MacDonald finally faces an accusation of possessing a shotgun with intent to 'endanger life'.
The indictment states he did attend at and travel between the different properties while armed with the firearm and ammunition.
MacDonald's lawyer Shahid Latif said: 'He pleads not guilty to the charges on the indictment.'
Mr Latif said defence inquiries are on-going, but said he was content for a trial to be fixed.
Along with prosecutor Lisa Gillespie KC, he also asked for a further hearing to take place before then in December this year.
Lord Fairley went on to state: 'I will assign a trial of seven days duration for May 14 in Glasgow.'
Two crowdfunders at the time set-up to help the affected families reportedly raised more than £70,000.
Mr MacKinnon's funeral took place in Sleat on Skye with up to 800 people at the service.
Police Scotland chief constable Iain Livingstone said following the incidents: 'This was a very tragic and extremely concerning incident in a remote part of Scotland.
'It is a very difficult time for John MacKinnon's family.' | {

Netanyahu's Iran speech gains tacit support in Saudi Arabia | DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s fiery speech this week before the U.S. Congress, in which he argued against an emerging nuclear deal with Iran, has received tacit support from an unlikely quarter -- Saudi Arabia.
The oil-rich Sunni kingdom views Shiite Iran as a regional rival that is perhaps even more menacing than Israel.
That was clear in a string of columns this week published in Saudi state-linked media, which is widely seen as reflecting official views and mainstream thought in the kingdom, and which voiced skepticism of President Barack Obama’s efforts to broker a landmark nuclear agreement with Tehran.
“Who could believe that Netanyahu today has taken a better stand than Obama with regard to the Iranian nuclear file?” columnist Ahmed al-Faraj wrote, saying he was quoting a recent remark by Senator Richard Durbin (D-IL). The opinion piece in the Saudi-owned al-Jazira newspaper on Monday, a day before the speech, reflects sentiment shared among some in the Gulf.
On Thursday, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry was in the Saudi capital to ease Gulf concerns about the negotiations with Iran, which are aimed at reaching a framework agreement this month and a final deal later this year. Kerry is meeting with the foreign ministers of the Sunni-ruled Gulf states and the new Saudi monarch King Salman.
Like Israel, Saudi Arabia has long viewed Iran as an expansionist power that seeks to dominate the region through local proxies, including Lebanon’s Hezbollah, Palestinian armed groups in the Gaza Strip and Shiite militias in Iraq. Saudi Arabia and Iran are fighting a proxy war in Syria, with the kingdom arming the rebels seeking to topple Iranian-backed President Bashar Assad.
In a column published in Asharq al-Awsat, a daily owned by King Salman’s family, Abdulrahman al-Rashed wrote “Iran’s fingerprints are everywhere.”
“Iran is currently in an offensive state, the likes of which we have not seen in modern history,” he wrote.
Netanyahu said as much to Congress, telling lawmakers that Iran is “gobbling up” nations in its “march of conquest, subjugation and terror.”
Saudi Arabia is part of the U.S.-led coalition striking the Islamic State group, awkwardly putting it on the same side as Iran, which is battling the extremists through its allied Shiite militias in Iraq and by supporting Assad. The kingdom, like the U.S., has refused to coordinate its efforts with Tehran.
Netanyahu’s argument that “when it comes to Iran and ISIS, the enemy of your enemy is your enemy,” resonates in Riyadh, where the royal family is concerned about a possible U.S.-Iranian rapprochement.
Despite the alignment of interests, Saudis still view Israel as an illegitimate occupier of Arab and Muslim lands, and any kind of open alliance is out of the question.
An editorial in al-Medina newspaper ridiculed Netanyahu’s insistence that he had traveled to Washington out of concern for Israel’s security and not to boost his prospects ahead of elections later this month. The editorial said it was ironic that he spoke of Israel’s need for security despite “hundreds of (Israeli) massacres against Palestinians and Arabs over more than six decades.”
An editorial by the al-Sharq newspaper went so far as to suggest that Netanyahu wants to scuttle the deal in order to allow Iran to get nuclear weapons, “which will not be directed toward Israel, but toward the Arabs, so that Iran can see its project through and achieve what Israel could not.” But the editorial did note that his assessment that Tehran is expanding was “right.”
Saudi columnist Dawoud al-Shiryan wrote in al-Hayat that if Israel was so worried about Iran getting nuclear weapons, “why haven’t they stopped it by force as they always do?” | {

Trump vows to build Israel-style 'Great Iron Dome' over US if re-elected: 'Made in America' | Former President Trump promised to build a "great" Iron Dome for the U.S. during his birthday rally in Florida, saying that it would be "made in America."
"By next term we will build a great Iron Dome over our country," Trump said at his 78th birthday soirée at Club 47 in West Palm Beach on Friday evening. "We deserve a dome. We deserve it all, made state of the art.
"It's a missile defense shield, and it'll all be made in America," he said. "Jobs, jobs, jobs."
Trump said that Ronald Reagan once rooted for an Iron Dome in the U.S., "but at that time, we didn't have the technology."
"We now have the technology," Trump said.
Trump said his proposed Iron Dome will be made in America and that it will create "beautiful" opportunities for young people.
"It's all going to be made in states," he said. "We're going to have a big, beautiful Iron Dome."
"Great opportunity for young people," Trump said.
Israel's missile defense system, or Iron Dome, is largely funded by the United States.
The system is designed to intercept and destroy short-range rockets and artillery fired from no more than 43 miles away.
Since its creation in 2011, the Iron Dome has rebuffed and destroyed rockets from Hamas militants, Palestinian forces and Iranian drones and missiles. | {

Trump's lawyers meet with Special Counsel ahead of January 6 charges | Donald Trump's lawyers have arrived for crunch talks with Special Counsel Jack Smith's office as he braces for an indictment on his bid to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
Prosecutors on Smith's team met with Todd Blanche and John Laura - lawyers representing Trump - at the Department of Justice on Thursday, NBC News reported.
Smith is investigating whether Trump and his allies interfered with the transition of power after the 2020 election. He is also investigating Trump's alleged mishandling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida and indicted Trump on 37-counts last month.
Trump confirmed last week that he received a target letter from the Department of Justice confirming he is the focus of the criminal investigation and that he expected to be arrested 'imminently.'
It will be the third set of criminal charges against Trump since he launched his campaign to return to the White House in 2024.
The grand jury looking into January 6 is also still convening and hearing from key witnesses in the case.
Trump has repeatedly slammed the January 6 investigation as a 'witch hunt' and claims it is election interference because he is leading in the polls. | {

Crash victim's father calls for more focus on pilot welfare | SISTERON, France (AP) — The father of one of the victims of this week’s plane crash in the French Alps called Saturday for airlines to take greater care over pilots’ welfare.
Prosecutors say they believe German co-pilot Andreas Lubitz deliberately slammed the Germanwings aircraft into a mountain, and that he hid an illness from his employers — including a sick note for the day of the crash.
“I believe the airlines should be more transparent and our finest pilots looked after properly,” said Philip Bramley, from Hull in northern England. “We put our lives and our children’s lives in their hands.”
His 28-year-old son, Paul Bramley, was one of 150 people killed in Tuesday’s disaster.
Speaking near the site of the crash, Philip Bramley said Lubitz’s motive was irrelevant. “What is relevant, is that it should never happen again; my son and everyone on that plane should not be forgotten, ever,” he said.
Germanwings, the Lufthansa subsidiary that Lubitz joined in 2013, declined Saturday to comment when asked whether the company was aware of any health problems he might have had. But it said he had passed all required medical check-ups.
Aviation experts say those checks are stringent, but focus mainly on physical health. A pilot’s mental state is usually only assessed once, before companies decide whether to admit them to a training program — and even then a determined person could hide a latent problem.
“The test that will get you into a Lufthansa flight training program is a very hard test and this is why most people who get into those pilot classes will train for those tests,” said David Hasse, the editor-in-chief of German aviation website airliners.de.
“There are coaching facilities, companies that are specialized in training people on how to pass those tests, and they will also advise you on how to behave in the psychological tests.”
Lufthansa said pilots are required to pass an annual medical test overseen by the German Federal Aviation Office, but the company itself doesn’t perform checks on its staff and relies on them to report any problems.
German prosecutors, who have been trying to determine what caused Lubitz to take such a devastating decision, met with their French counterparts Saturday to discuss the preliminary findings of their investigation.
Duesseldorf prosecutors say Lubitz hid evidence of an illness from his employers — including a torn-up doctor’s note that would have kept him off work the day authorities say he crashed Flight 9525.
Searches conducted at Lubitz’s homes in Duesseldorf and in the town of Montabaur turned up documents pointing to “an existing illness and appropriate medical treatment,” but no suicide note was found, said Ralf Herrenbrueck, of the Duesseldorf prosecutors’ office.
Prosecutors didn’t specify what illness Lubitz may have been suffering from, or say whether it was mental or physical. German media have reported that the 27-year-old suffered from depression.
Duesseldorf University Hospital said Friday that Lubitz had been a patient there over the past two months and last went in for a “diagnostic evaluation” on March 10. It declined to provide details, but denied reports it had treated Lubitz for depression.
Colleagues and acquaintances described Lubitz as an affable man in good physical health who was focused on a career as a pilot.
Detlef Adolf, the manager of a local Burger King near Montabaur, said Lubitz worked their temporarily as a teenager and was “reliable and punctual.”
Frank Woiton, another Germanwings pilot, said Lubitz told him he wanted to become a long-distance pilot and fly Airbus A380 or Boeing 747 planes. Woiton, who like Lubitz comes from Montabaur, said he met Lubitz for the first time three weeks ago when they flew Duesseldorf to Vienna and back together.
Woiton told German public broadcaster WDR on Friday that Lubitz didn’t stand out and appeared like any other colleague. Lubitz “flew well and knew how to handle the plane,” he said.
Lubitz also frequented a gliding club near the crash site as a child with his parents, according to Francis Kefer, a member of the club in the town of Sisteron.
Kefer told i-Tele television that Lubitz’s family and other members of the gliding club in his hometown of Montabaur came to the region regularly between 1996 and 2003.
The crash site is about 50 kilometers (30 miles) away from the Aero-club de Sisteron glider airfield.
Jean Pierre Revolat, the club’s vice-president, said he didn’t recall Andreas Lubitz, but said the pilot’s family had been friends with a former president of the club.
“As such they were coming here often to fly until the year 2000, 2003. As far as I know, since then we haven’t seen that family,” he said.
The area, with its numerous peaks and valleys and stunning panoramas, is popular with glider pilots. In the final moments of the Germanwings flight, Lubitz overflew the major turning points for gliders in the region, flying from one peak to another, according to local glider pilots.
The plane shattered into thousands of pieces, and police are toiling to retrieve the remains of the victims and the aircraft from a hard-to-reach Alpine valley near the village of Le Vernet.
A special Mass was held Saturday in the nearby town of Digne-les-Bains to honor the victims and support their families. | {

"Germanwings, the Lufthansa subsidiary that Lubitz joined in 2013, declined Saturday to comment when asked whether the company was aware of any health problems he might have had. But it said he had passed all required medical check-ups.",
"Aviation experts say those checks are stringent, but focus mainly on physical health. A pilot’s mental state is usually only assessed once, before companies decide whether to admit them to a training program — and even then a determined person could hide a latent problem.",
"“The test that will get you into a Lufthansa flight training program is a very hard test and this is why most people who get into those pilot classes will train for those tests,” said David Hasse, the editor-in-chief of German aviation website airliners.de.",
"“There are coaching facilities, companies that are specialized in training people on how to pass those tests, and they will also advise you on how to behave in the psychological tests.”",
"Lufthansa said pilots are required to pass an annual medical test overseen by the German Federal Aviation Office, but the company itself doesn’t perform checks on its staff and relies on them to report any problems.",
"German prosecutors, who have been trying to determine what caused Lubitz to take such a devastating decision, met with their French counterparts Saturday to discuss the preliminary findings of their investigation.",
"Duesseldorf prosecutors say Lubitz hid evidence of an illness from his employers — including a torn-up doctor’s note that would have kept him off work the day authorities say he crashed Flight 9525.",
"Searches conducted at Lubitz’s homes in Duesseldorf and in the town of Montabaur turned up documents pointing to “an existing illness and appropriate medical treatment,” but no suicide note was found, said Ralf Herrenbrueck, of the Duesseldorf prosecutors’ office.",
"Prosecutors didn’t specify what illness Lubitz may have been suffering from, or say whether it was mental or physical. German media have reported that the 27-year-old suffered from depression.",
"Duesseldorf University Hospital said Friday that Lubitz had been a patient there over the past two months and last went in for a “diagnostic evaluation” on March 10. It declined to provide details, but denied reports it had treated Lubitz for depression.",
"Colleagues and acquaintances described Lubitz as an affable man in good physical health who was focused on a career as a pilot.",
"Detlef Adolf, the manager of a local Burger King near Montabaur, said Lubitz worked their temporarily as a teenager and was “reliable and punctual.”",
"Frank Woiton, another Germanwings pilot, said Lubitz told him he wanted to become a long-distance pilot and fly Airbus A380 or Boeing 747 planes. Woiton, who like Lubitz comes from Montabaur, said he met Lubitz for the first time three weeks ago when they flew Duesseldorf to Vienna and back together.",
"Woiton told German public broadcaster WDR on Friday that Lubitz didn’t stand out and appeared like any other colleague. Lubitz “flew well and knew how to handle the plane,” he said.",
"Lubitz also frequented a gliding club near the crash site as a child with his parents, according to Francis Kefer, a member of the club in the town of Sisteron.",
"Kefer told i-Tele television that Lubitz’s family and other members of the gliding club in his hometown of Montabaur came to the region regularly between 1996 and 2003.",
"The crash site is about 50 kilometers (30 miles) away from the Aero-club de Sisteron glider airfield.",
"Jean Pierre Revolat, the club’s vice-president, said he didn’t recall Andreas Lubitz, but said the pilot’s family had been friends with a former president of the club.",
"“As such they were coming here often to fly until the year 2000, 2003. As far as I know, since then we haven’t seen that family,” he said.",
"The area, with its numerous peaks and valleys and stunning panoramas, is popular with glider pilots. In the final moments of the Germanwings flight, Lubitz overflew the major turning points for gliders in the region, flying from one peak to another, according to local glider pilots.",
"The plane shattered into thousands of pieces, and police are toiling to retrieve the remains of the victims and the aircraft from a hard-to-reach Alpine valley near the village of Le Vernet.",
"A special Mass was held Saturday in the nearby town of Digne-les-Bains to honor the victims and support their families."

What was the 'Tic Tac' UFO incident? | UFOs have long captured the public's imagination, but never more so than during yesterday's US congress hearing into claims the American government is covering up its knowledge of alien craft.
On a day that sparked huge interest in the US and across the globe, the landmark panel heard from three key witnesses who shared their encounters with unexplained objects.
Among them was retired US Navy fighter pilot David Fravor, who once again reminded the world about his infamous encounter with a 'Tic Tac' shaped UFO 15 years ago.
'I'd like to say that the tic tac object we engaged in 2004 was far superior to anything that we had at the time, have today or looking to develop in the next 10 years,' he said.
So what exactly was the 'Tic Tac' UFO incident? And could the 'perfectly white, smooth' object with no windows that Fravor saw really have been an alien spaceship? MailOnline takes a look back at everything we know.
What actually happened?
Before we get to Fravor, it's important to mention another former US Navy pilot first.
Chad Underwood was the man who actually shot footage of the 'Tic Tac' UFO in November 2004.
He broke his silence in 2019, detailing for the first time his bizarre experiences while flying over the Pacific.
At the time, Underwood had been taking part in Navy carrier group exercises just off the coast of Mexico.
For around two weeks, their missile cruiser USS Princeton had been tracking a mysterious aircraft on an advanced electronic radar.
Contact with the craft was so inexplicable that the system was even shut down and checked for bugs - but operators continued to track it.
On November 14, then Navy commander Fravor claimed he made visual contact with this object, which seemed to dive below the water, resurface, and speed out of sight when he tried to approach it.
Underwood then also saw the strange object for himself just after Fravor urged him to keep a look out.
The former pilot told New York Magazine: 'So, we go out to where our designated training area is. We're not necessarily looking for something, but the Princeton had a specific object that they wanted us to hunt, for lack of a better word. And all of a sudden, I got this blip on my radar.
'The thing that stood out to me the most was how erratic it was behaving. And what I mean by "erratic" is that its changes in altitude, air speed, and aspect were just unlike things that I’ve ever encountered before flying against other air targets,' Underwood told the magazine.
'Because, aircraft, whether they’re manned or unmanned, still have to obey the laws of physics. They have to have some source of lift, some source of propulsion. The Tic Tac was not doing that. It was going from like 50,000 feet to, you know, a hundred feet in like seconds, which is not possible.'
Underwood is the one who first coined the description 'Tic Tac' for the white wingless oblong that was captured from his cockpit's in-flight video.
While he dismissed the idea that it was aircraft, a bird or even a weather balloon, he is still unsure whether the object was human or non-human.
The Tic Tac incident caused a sensation in 2017 when the Pentagon confirmed that the footage was actually authentic.
It then resurfaced once again on Wednesday when Fravor joined two other military whistleblowers to speak at a US Congress hearing.
He assured officials that he was not a 'UFO fanatic' and said that the Tic Tac was 'far superior to anything that we had at the time'.
'If we, in fact, have programs that possess this technology, it needs to have oversight from those people that the citizens of this country elected in office to represent what is best for the United States and best for the citizens,' he added.
Fravor described the Tic Tac object as being 'perfectly white, smooth and had no windows,' with 'two little objects that came out of the bottom'.
'I'm not like a UFO fanatic — that's not me. But I will tell you that what we saw with four sets of eyes over five minutes, still, there's nothing we have nothing close to it,' he said.
What else could it have been?
One theory is that it might well have been a radar reflector balloon used to gauge the abilities of enemy air defences.
Launched by a submarine, these specially-designed airborne devices actually date back to 1955, during the days of the Cold War.
It is unclear if such balloons are still used today, but given the covert nature of submarines it's not exactly something that defence chiefs would be shouting from the rooftops about.
The War Zone, an online magazine oriented towards national security and geopolitical coverage and analysis, first came up with the theory.
It said that being able to deploy balloons with radar reflectors while submerged would be a 'highly effective way' of getting a feel for an enemy's air defences.
'By sneaking in or near enemy territory, releasing these devices under the right weather conditions, and raising their low-observable electronic intelligence gathering masts, they could theoretically improve the quality of the intelligence gathered remarkably,' the magazine added.
It concluded that the Tic Tac UFO witnessed by the Nimitz Carrier Strike Group during its training exercise in 2004 could therefore have been 'a bunch of radar reflector and/or electronic warfare payload-carrying balloons'.
What could come of the congress hearing?
Fravor's testimony comes as the US Senate is considering a UFO Disclosure Bill which seeks to make make all information relating to 'unidentified anomalous phenomena' (UAPs) public.
If passed, records will be publicly disclosed no later than 25 years after they are created unless the president believes their release would threaten national security. | {

Judge OKs punitive damages in California gender bias case | SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A California trial judge ruled Saturday that a woman suing a Silicon Valley venture capital firm in a high-profile gender bias case may seek punitive damages that could add tens of millions of dollars to the $16 million in lost wages and bonuses she is pursuing.
San Francisco Superior Court Judge Harold Kahn denied a request by lawyers for Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers to have Ellen Pao’s demand for unspecified punitive damages thrown out. Pao, the interim CEO of the news and social networking site Reddit, claims she was passed over for a promotion at the firm because she is a woman and then fired in 2012 after she complained.
Kahn said there was enough evidence for the jury considering Pao’s lawsuit to conclude that Kleiner Perkins acted with malice, oppression or fraud, which in California is the legal threshold for awarding damages that are designed to punish and deter particularly bad behavior.
“Per this standard, there is sufficient evidence from which a reasonable juror could conclude that Kleiner Perkins engaged in intentional gender discrimination by failing to promote Ms. Pao and terminating her employment,” the judge said in the one-paragraph decision.
Kleiner Perkins has denied wrongdoing and says Pao didn’t get along with her colleagues and performed poorly after she became a junior partner around 2010.
Jurors are expected to hear closing arguments in the case on Tuesday. Kahn’s decision means he will instruct them before they start deliberating that they will need to decide, along with the validity of Pao’s underlying sex discrimination claim, is whether she is entitled to punitive damages and if so, how much. Punitive damages often run much higher than the awards designed to compensate plaintiffs for financial losses.
The four-week trial on Pao’s lawsuit has spotlighted gender imbalance at elite Silicon Valley investment companies that are stacked with some of the nation’s most accomplished graduates who compete aggressively to back the next Google or Amazon. | {

MMA star reveals he's received death threats after BITING his opponent | Brazilian MMA star Igor Severino has revealed he's received online death threats after being disqualified for biting his opponent during a fight last month.
Severino, 20, faced his fellow countryman Andre Lima in a flyweight bout at UFC Vegas 89, but the fight was brought to an abrupt halt in the second round when Severino bit into Lima's bicep while attempting a takedown.
He was swiftly disqualified, and was cut from the UFC by the organisation's president Dana White within hours.
He has received backlash in the days since the incident, and Severino claimed threats had been made to him and his family.
'My social media was flooded with hateful comments, mean messages, people angry at what happened, and also threats,' he told MMA Fighting.
'I started to digest all that and feel bad too. I’ve made a mistake and I apologise to everyone.
'I’m sad because the internet is so polluted. I’ve made a mistake and I’m willing to pay for this mistake, recognise this mistake, but I haven’t killed anyone, I haven’t caused any harm or committed any crime, you know?
'To see people threaten me, threaten my family, makes me really sad and apprehensive, afraid. It leaves me heartbroken.'
Reflecting on the bite itself, Severino was at a loss to explain why it happened.
'There’s no plausible explanation [for the bite], right?' he said
'I remember exchanging strikes with him, a close fight, but I was in autopilot mode after that elbow.
'I don’t remember anything after that, the things I’ve said.
'I only started getting back to myself at the hotel, after a long while, and my team showed me the video of what I’ve done, and there’s no explanation.'
Severino was unbeaten before being disqualified against Lima, having won his previous eight fights.
He opened up on the sacrifices he made to make it to the UFC, and still hopes he will get a shot at redemption in the future.
'I left my family as a teenager and spent two years without seeing my parents and my brother, working toward my dream, and managed to get to [Dana White's] Contender [Series] and the UFC,' he explained.
'That was a dream come true, and now it’s gone like this. That hurts me inside. I could have a long future in the organization, but I’ll own my mistakes and try to come back.
'I hope it’s not a long suspension. I want to come back [to the UFC], I still have a lot to show.' | {

Just Stop Oil activists can take part in ‘peaceful’ protests ahead of their trial | Judge says ‘we are talking about competing rights’ as he relaxes bail conditions of group charged after slow march across Waterloo Bridge
A group of Just Stop Oil activists who took part in a slow march across Waterloo Bridge were told they can continue to take part in “peaceful” protests ahead of their trial.
Stephen Simpson, 70, Barbara Lund, 70, David Mitchell, 62, Patrick Walker, 34, Andrew Bellis, 44 and Peter Lillie, 31, joined the demonstration on Waterloo Bridge on Nov 8.
They all denied an offence contrary to the Public Order Act 2023 at Southwark Crown Court on Monday.
According to the charge, the protesters “interfered with the use or operation of a key national infrastructure in England and Wales, namely Waterloo Bridge, intending that act to interfere with the use or operation of such infrastructure or being reckless as to whether it would do so”.
The six were told they will not stand trial until 2025.
Judge David Tomlinson said he was prepared to relax earlier bail conditions, preventing five of the six defendants from coming within the M25.
He said the latest condition “does not stop anyone from taking part in a peaceful protest”.
“What it stops them from doing is participating in a procession which prevents members of the public from going about their lawful business,” he said.
“We are talking about competing rights here and this condition does not stop them protesting; it does, however, stop them from preventing people from going about their lawful business.
“This condition of bail is entirely proportionate to anyone who was given instruction by police.
“It is proportionate to try and stop any of you being accused of any further offences between now and the trial date.”
Mr Simpson of Bradford, Ms Lund of Frome, Mr Mitchell of Bristol, Mr Walker of Newport, Mr Bellis of Cheshire and Mr Lillie of Bristol, all denied one count of interfering with the use of a key national infrastructure.
They will return to court for further hearings on Jan 19 and April 12, but their trial is unlikely to be heard until 2025.
The condition does not apply to Simpson because he has been allowed unconditional bail throughout. | {

Niğde OSB'de yatırım ve istihdam artıyor - Niğde Haberleri | Devletin sağladığı teşviklerle son dönemde yatırımcıların ilgi gösterdiği Niğde Organize Sanayi Bölgesi (OSB), 6 bin 100 kişilik çalışan gücüyle ülke ekonomisine katkı sağlıyor.
Devletin sağladığı teşviklerle son dönemde yatırımcıların ilgi gösterdiği Niğde Organize Sanayi Bölgesi (OSB), 6 bin 100 kişilik çalışan gücüyle ülke ekonomisine katkı sağlıyor.
Kurulduğu 1986 yılında 112 parsel, 261 hektarlık alanda faaliyet gösteren Niğde OSB'de, bugün 705 hektar alanda 137 parselde 105 firma üretim yapıyor.
Yaklaşık 6 bin 100 kişinin istihdam edildiği Niğde OSB'de 26 parselde de yeni tesisler kuruluyor.
Niğde OSB Yönetim Kurulu Başkanı Mustafa Altunbaş, yaptığı yazılı açıklamada, bölgesel ve sektörel teşvik programında yer alan Niğde OSB'de yatırımcıların KDV istisnası, gümrük vergisi muafiyeti, vergi indirimi, sigorta primi işveren hissesi desteği, yatırım yeri tahsisi, faiz desteği gibi avantajlardan yararlandığını belirtti.
OSB'nin, Niğde-Ankara Otoyolu'nun açılması, kentin limana olan yakınlığı, genç nüfusun fazlalığı, deprem riski az olan iller arasında yer alması nedeniyle yatırımcılar için cazibe merkezi haline geldiğini ifade eden Altunbaş, sanayicilere her alanda destek verdiklerini bildirdi.
Altunbaş, Niğde OSB'nin konum açısından ithalat ve ihracata elverişli, ihtisas gümrük bölgesi olmasıyla sanayicilere ciddi ekonomik kazanç sağladığını vurgulayarak, yoğun talep nedeniyle Niğde OSB'nin alanını genişletme çalışmalarının sürdüğünü ifade etti.
Güneş enerjisi sistemi (GES), atık su ve içme suyu arıtma tesisi, elektrik ve doğal gaz dağıtım hatlarıyla her türlü altyapı ve üst yapı çalışmalarıyla sanayicilere destek sağladıklarını belirten Altunbaş, şunları kaydetti:
"6 milyon dolarlık yatırımla 6 megavat kapasiteli güneş enerjisi sistemi OSB'ye yenilenebilir enerji sağlıyor. Ayrıca genişleme alanında çalışmaları devam eden 504 ve 41,7 hektarın yapılaşmaya uygun olmayan bölümlerinde oluşturulacak teknik altyapı alanlarında, Avrupa Birliği'nin Yeşil Mutabakat kapsamında Sınırda Karbon Vergisi Uygulaması'na hazırlanması ve ABD'nin de benzer uygulamalara gidecek olması, kullandığı elektriği yenilenebilir kaynaklardan sağlandığını kanıtlayan firmaların ihracat yapabilecek olması nedeniyle Niğde OSB'deki firmaların tükettikleri elektrik enerjisinin büyük çoğunluğunu karşılamak üzere yaklaşık 60 megavat kapasiteli GES tesisi kurularak yenilenebilir enerjiye ulaşılmasını planlıyoruz."

Jérôme Lejeune : ces archives qui attestent sa découverte de la trisomie 21 | Trente ans après sa mort, les biographes du célèbre généticien présentent de nouvelles pièces d’archive attestant le rôle majeur joué par le Pr Lejeune dans la découverte de la maladie, malgré des polémiques récentes.
Pour toute épitaphe on lui décerna ces quatre lettres, gravées d’or sur la modeste pierre tombale en granite : «NIKE» - pas la marque de sport bien sûr, mais la déesse grecque de la victoire. Le professeur Jérôme Lejeune est mort au petit matin de Pâques, voici tout juste 30 ans, le 3 avril 1994. Il s'apprêtait à recevoir la communion, en cette fête qui figure, pour le chrétien qu'il était, la victoire de la vie sur la mort. Mais une «victoire» plus personnelle l’a rendu célèbre dans le monde entier : la découverte en 1958 du chromosome surnuméraire responsable de la trisomie 21. On parlait encore de «mongolisme» ; c'est Jérôme Lejeune qui imposera plus tard le nom actuel de cette maladie congénitale. Avec la science, c'est aussi la dignité des personnes porteuses de la maladie qui a fait un bond en avant grâce à sa découverte.
Celle-ci s'inscrit dans une série d'avancées scientifiques qui ont marqué l'histoire de la génétique, et grâce auxquelles les travaux du Pr Lejeune ont pu aboutir. Les premiers chromosomes ont été observés au microscope à la fin du XIXème siècle ; les gènes n'étaient encore qu'un concept abstrait. On a longtemps compté 48 chromosomes sur le caryotype humain - c'est dire si leur observation restait une tâche ardue. Ce n’est qu’en 1956, qu’on établit qu’il n’y a que 46 chromosomes dans l’ADN humain.
À Paris, depuis 1937, le Pr Turpin postulait que le mongolisme est le résultat d'une anomalie chromosomique. Dans le laboratoire clinique de l'hôpital Trousseau où il dirigeait ses recherches, il espérait en avoir enfin le cœur net. À ses côtés depuis 1952, Jérôme Lejeune l'assistait en étudiant notamment les empreintes digitales des patients mongoliens. En 1956, l'arrivée au laboratoire de la jeune cardiologue Marthe Gautier, qui avait appris à Boston les techniques de culture cellulaire, permit de pousser plus loin les investigations génétiques. Le 22 mai 1958, Jérôme Lejeune écrivit dans son carnet d'analyse avoir compté «un chromosome surnuméraire» sur des tissus cellulaires d'enfants «mongolien». Le 26 janvier 1959, cette découverte fut communiquée pour la première fois au monde scientifique dans un article publié par l'Académie des sciences, et signé, dans l'ordre, par Jérôme Lejeune, Marie Gauthier (avec deux fautes d'orthographe qui disparaîtront lors des publications ultérieures) et Raymond Turpin.
Jérôme Lejeune acquit dès lors une renommée grandissante. Il a, depuis, consacré sa vie à poursuivre ses recherches sur la trisomie 21 ; aujourd'hui la Fondation qui porte son nom lève des fonds dans l'espoir de découvrir un jour un traitement à cette maladie. Outre sa carrière scientifique, le Pr Lejeune s'est également engagé contre le diagnostic prénatal (permettant de détecter en cours de grossesse une anomalie génétique sur l'embryon), au nom du respect de la dignité de la vie dès sa conception.
Polémique posthume
Devenu par conséquent controversé à mesure que la pratique de l'IVG s'est banalisée dans les mœurs, le souvenir du Pr Lejeune a pâti en outre d'une polémique posthume, déclenchée en 2009 par la publication d'une lettre de Marthe Gautier dans la revue Médecine / Sciences de l'Inserm, un demi-siècle après la découverte de la trisomie 21. Dans ce texte, la cosignataire de l'article ayant établi pour la première fois l'existence d'un 47ème chromosome sur le caryotype des porteurs de trisomie 21 expose son sentiment d’avoir été la «découvreuse oubliée».
La scientifique y raconte son parcours, revenant longuement sur le séjour aux États-Unis au cours duquel elle a acquis la technique de culture cellulaire sans laquelle toute observation chromosomique aurait été vaine. Elle décrit la façon dont elle a installé, avec les moyens du bord, un dispositif similaire dans le laboratoire du Pr Turpin (qu’elle appelle «le patron»), éveillant peu à peu l'attention d'un «nouveau venu au laboratoire», le Pr Lejeune, un «stagiaire au CNRS» qu’elle dit n'avoir pas connu auparavant. Selon son récit, une fois obtenues des cellules d'enfants «mongoliens», c'est donc grâce à elle que l'observation du 47ème chromosome fut permise : «J'ai gagné mon pari, celui de réussir seule avec mes laborantines une technique et surtout de mettre en évidence une anomalie».
Pour «attester la présence» du chromosome surnuméraire, qui est plus petit que les autres, et «établir le caryotype», Marthe Gautier «confie les lames à Jérôme Lejeune qui fait faire les photos». Selon elle, le chercheur conserve les clichés sans les lui montrer, puis part six mois en Amérique du Nord pour une série de conférences sur son autre sujet de recherche, les radiations ionisantes. Le Pr Lejeune mentionne alors la découverte de la trisomie 21 lors d'un séminaire en octobre 1958, «comme s'il en était l'auteur», puis publie en urgence un premier article à son retour en France, pour «devancer inélégamment» une équipe anglo-saxonne sur le point de faire la même découverte.
«Je suis consciente de ce qui se dessine sournoisement, mais je n'ai pas assez d'expérience ni d'autorité», interprète rétrospectivement Marthe Gautier, ajoutant : «trop jeune, je ne connais pas les règles du jeu». Elle reconnaît toutefois qu'elle n'aurait de toute façon peu l'intention d'exploiter la découverte : «ma vie professionnelle se construisait ailleurs, vers la clinique» où elle commençait alors, en parallèle, ses consultations en cardiologie.
Ce que Marthe Gautier n'ose encore écrire noir sur blanc, par pudeur, d'autres l'ont vite écrit en toutes lettres en reprenant à leur compte le récit de cette spoliation : dans un monde scientifique encore trop masculin, la place des femmes dans la recherche avait été une nouvelle fois étouffée. Son récit fut repris dans toute la presse, et de nombreux journalistes y ont vu une nouvelle preuve de «l'effet Matilda», du nom d'une militante féministe qui avait dénoncé en son temps l'accaparation par les hommes de la propriété intellectuelle des femmes.
Le récit de Marthe Gautier a inspiré à la romancière Corinne Royer une œuvre mêlant fiction et biographie, Ce qui nous revient (Actes Sud, 2019), rédigée au terme de deux années passées en compagnie de la scientifique, décédée trois ans plus tard en 2022. On s'étonne auprès de l'écrivaine du délai entre la découverte de la trisomie 21, et de la revendication de sa... maternité, par Marthe Gautier. «Il faut se remettre dans le contexte de l'époque : elle n'avait aucun soutien, aucun appui, et elle aurait été mise au ban du monde scientifique» assure Corinne Royer au Figaro. «Marthe Gautier avait le choix entre se taire et poursuivre sa carrière de son côté, ou bien tout sacrifier à son combat pour être reconnue comme la véritable découvreuse de la trisomie 21».
La romancière ajoute que la Fondation Jérôme Lejeune, «extrêmement puissante», exercerait en outre une pression sur la communauté des chercheurs pour ne pas que soit remis en cause le rôle décisif joué par le Pr Lejeune. Et de présenter au Figaro, pour preuve, le courrier adressé par une cardiologue après publication du roman : «mes collègues et moi-même étant au courant de sa découverte de la trisomie 21 étions plein d'admiration pour elle». Une admiration silencieuse, donc, en raison d'une forme d'omerta.
Une thèse démentie par les archives
Il n'est pas exagéré de supposer que la controverse sur la découverte de la trisomie 21 doit aussi beaucoup aux antagonismes éthiques ou idéologiques entre Marthe Gautier et Jérôme Lejeune. Ce dernier a échoué de peu à l'obtention du Prix Nobel - plusieurs membres du comité ont reconnu ensuite que ses positions sur l'IVG avaient joué contre lui. Or comme c'est chaque fois le cas lorsqu'une découverte majeure est nobélisée, le Pr Lejeune n'aurait probablement pas reçu le Nobel tout seul : Raymond Turpin et Marthe Gautier auraient été primés avec lui. Cette dernière conserve ainsi un grief important contre son ancien collègue.
Mais pour la biographe* du Pr Lejeune, Aude Dugast, membre de la Fondation Lejeune et postulatrice auprès du Vatican de la cause de canonisation du défunt professeur, cette animosité est apparue de nombreuses années plus tard. «Marthe Gautier a attendu la mort du Pr Lejeune et du Pr Turpin pour s'exprimer, alors qu'elle a entretenu au moins jusqu'en 1962, donc trois ans après la découverte, une relation amicale avec Jérôme Lejeune», affirme-t-elle. En effet alors que Marthe Gautier assurait ne pas connaître le Pr Lejeune avant 1958, les lettres qu'elle lui adressait un an plus tôt débutaient déjà en ces termes : «cher ami» ; plus tard en écrivant à sa femme, le Pr Lejeune la décrit encore comme «absolument charmante» avec lui.
Surtout, concernant la découverte elle-même, elle apparaît nettement dans le carnet d'analyse du Pr Lejeune dès mai 1958, réfutant l'idée selon laquelle la découverte aurait été d'abord faite par Marthe Gautier avant que Jérôme Lejeune y soit associé. Il avait lui-même appris à colorer les chromosomes pour les mettre en valeur sur les photographies prises au microscope. La correspondance du Pr Turpin au Pr Lejeune en octobre 1958 montre en outre que c'est bien à lui que le Pr Turpin attribue la découverte.
Tout le temps que dure le voyage du Pr Lejeune en Amérique, Marthe Gautier seule ne parvient pas à retrouver un 47ème chromosome, ce que fait à plusieurs reprises le Pr Lejeune à son retour, permettant ainsi de publier un premier article malgré les scrupules que lui inspire à l'époque sa peur de commettre une erreur en s'empressant de communiquer ses résultats. Enfin, six ans plus tard, lors d'une leçon inaugurale en 1965 pour sa nomination comme professeur de génétique fondamentale, Jérôme Lejeune loue sans détour «l'habileté» et la «ténacité» de Marthe Gautier, sans laquelle la découverte n'aurait pas été possible. Difficile dès lors de maintenir que Jérôme Lejeune aurait «invisibilisé» sa collègue.
L'hypothèse selon laquelle le Pr Lejeune aurait joué un rôle majeur dans cette découverte demeure de loin la plus plausible aux yeux de l'historien et archiviste Bruno Galland, directeur des archives du Rhône et professeur à la Sorbonne, qui a trié les archives de Jérôme Lejeune après sa mort . «Les carnets du Pr Lejeune, et la correspondance privée qu'il entretenait avec son épouse Birthe Lejeune, montrent clairement le rôle primordial qu'il a joué. Ces documents sont d'autant moins susceptibles d'avoir été falsifiés intentionnellement qu'ils n'avaient pas vocation à être rendus publics : ils dévoilent le for interne de Jérôme Lejeune à cette époque», note-t-il.
Davantage qu'une malice de la part de Jérôme Lejeune, la controverse avec Marthe Gautier renseigne d'abord sur la part que les grandes découvertes scientifiques doivent au travail d'équipe, alors que la facilité médiatique ou historique pousse souvent à ne les associer qu'à un seul nom. C'est ce que conclut l'avis du comité d'éthique de l'Inserm, saisi de cette question en 2014 : «De nos jours, les découvertes sont collectives et non plus individuelles». *Jérôme Lejeune.

What a 'twinkling' star sounds like: 'Eerily fascinating' noise | Twinkling away in deep space, it's hard to imagine that some stars may sound like a 'warped ray gun'.
But state of the art technology suggests that's the case, after scientists created simulations which reveal the 'eerily fascinating' noises for the first time.
Researchers at Northwestern University unveiled what 'twinkling' stars sound like after converting the rippling waves of gas inside stellar cores into sound waves.
You may be surprised to know that these luminous spheres often blast noises like weather sirens and even distant humming in a 'windswept terrain', according to the US team.
'Waves emerging from the core of a large star, for example, make sounds like a warped ray gun, blasting through an alien landscape,' lead author Dr Evan Anders of the study said.
'But the star alters these sounds as the waves reach the star's surface.'
As part of this study, researchers developed the first 3D simulations of what really goes on at the heart of the star.
At the star's core, intense pressure squeezes hydrogen atoms together to form helium atoms and excess energy.
This energy gives rise to heat, which causes clumps of goo-like plasma to rise as if it were inside a lava lamp.
These waves usually then ripple outward to the star's surface where they compress and decompress the star’s plasma, causing brightening and dimming of the star's light.
However, Dr Andres claims that other waves also become 'trapped' and continue to bounce around inside the star.
By understanding this, scientists were able to convert the rippling waves of gas into sound waves, enabling people to hear both what the insides of stars and the 'twinkling' should sound like.
Because the waves are outside the range of human hearing, researchers uniformly increased their frequencies to make them audible.
Depending on how large or bright a star is, Dr Anders says the convection produces waves corresponding to different sounds.
He continued: 'For a large star, the ray gun-like pulses shift into a low echo reverberating through an empty room.
'Waves at the surface of a medium-sized star, on the other hand, conjure images of a persistent hum through a windswept terrain.
'And surface waves on a small star sound like a plaintive alert from a weather siren.'
The team even passed songs through different stars to understand whether these masses have the ability to change their tune.
Audio clips from 'Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star' were used to test this, in addition to a recording from 'The Planets' by classical composer Gustav Holst.
He added: 'We were curious how a song would sound if heard as propagated through a star.
'The stars change the music and, correspondingly, change how the waves would look if we saw them as twinkling on the star's surface.'
In another first, the Northwestern team also discovered how much stars should innately shine.
To do this, Dr Anders and his team developed a filter to understand how waves should bounce around inside of a real star.
When the filter was applied, simulations showed how the waves would appear if viewed through a powerful telescope.
Dr Anders said: 'Stars get a little brighter or a little dimmer depending on various things happening dynamically inside the star.
'The twinkling that these waves cause is extremely subtle, and our eyes are not sensitive enough to see it. But powerful future telescopes may be able to detect it.' | {

"'Waves at the surface of a medium-sized star, on the other hand, conjure images of a persistent hum through a windswept terrain.",
"'And surface waves on a small star sound like a plaintive alert from a weather siren.'",
"The team even passed songs through different stars to understand whether these masses have the ability to change their tune.",
"Audio clips from 'Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star' were used to test this, in addition to a recording from 'The Planets' by classical composer Gustav Holst.",
"He added: 'We were curious how a song would sound if heard as propagated through a star.",
"'The stars change the music and, correspondingly, change how the waves would look if we saw them as twinkling on the star's surface.'",
"In another first, the Northwestern team also discovered how much stars should innately shine.",
"To do this, Dr Anders and his team developed a filter to understand how waves should bounce around inside of a real star.",
"When the filter was applied, simulations showed how the waves would appear if viewed through a powerful telescope.",
"Dr Anders said: 'Stars get a little brighter or a little dimmer depending on various things happening dynamically inside the star.",
"'The twinkling that these waves cause is extremely subtle, and our eyes are not sensitive enough to see it. But powerful future telescopes may be able to detect it.'"

Woman: Male colleague at venture firm 'relentless' in affair | SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The woman behind a high-profile gender bias lawsuit against a major Silicon Valley venture capital firm testified Monday that a male colleague was “relentless” in his pursuit of her and cut her out of email chains and meetings when she broke off their affair.
Plaintiff Ellen Pao appeared calm and composed as she took the witness stand for the first time in the case against Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers.
The lawsuit has spotlighted gender imbalance at elite Silicon Valley investment companies that are stacked with some of the nation’s most accomplished graduates— multiple-degree holders from schools such as Harvard and Stanford who are competing aggressively to back the next Google or Amazon.
But women are grossly underrepresented in the venture capital and technology sectors.
Pao is seeking $16 million in damages after claiming she was passed over for a promotion because she is a woman and then fired in 2012 after she complained.
Kleiner Perkins has denied wrongdoing and says Pao didn’t get along with her colleagues and performed poorly after she became a junior partner around 2010.
In her testimony, Pao said she was given a poetry book by a senior partner in 2007 that featured drawings of naked women and poems on topics such as the longings of an older man for younger women. The partner also invited her to dinner one weekend while noting his wife would be out of town, she said.
“I thought it was strange, and it made me uncomfortable,” she said.
Pao acknowledged having the affair with a male colleague, but said she broke it off when she learned he had lied that his wife had left him.
She said the colleague later retaliated by shutting her out of emails and meetings.
“He was relentless and eventually told me that his wife had left him,” Pao told jurors, explaining why she got into the relationship with him.
When she raised the retaliation issue with management, a senior partner explained how he had met his wife at another company while he was married, and perhaps Pao could have the same outcome with her colleague, she testified.
She said she repeatedly complained that the colleague was retaliating against her but “Kleiner Perkins continued to do nothing.”
Pao said it was humiliating not to be invited to an all-male dinner at Vice President Al Gore’s apartment and have to explain to executives she ran into that she wouldn’t be attending. Pao lived in the same building as Gore.
In another example of bias, she said she felt “very uncomfortable” about a conversation men were having about pornography aboard a private plane. The men were not Kleiner employees, but had been invited by a senior Kleiner manager, who Pao’s attorneys say was present but did nothing to stop the conversation.
Kleiner Perkins’ attorneys have tried to portray Pao as a chronic complainer who demanded credit for work done by a team, clashed with her colleagues, and twisted facts and circumstances.
Her attorneys were trying Monday to dispute that portrayal and establish their client’s credibility and likeability with the jury.
During her testimony, Pao said she had a disagreement with a female colleague, but they improved their communication after spending more time together outside the office, as Kleiner Perkins management had suggested.
Pao also joked at times, noting she was huge in her eighth month of pregnancy and had given birth to a girl who acts like a boy.
She said she was an early backer of Twitter at the firm and helped develop another company that went public.
Steve Hirschfeld, an investigator hired by the firm to look into Pao’s bias complaint, testified earlier in the day that she told him that her relationship with the male colleague was not consensual — a contention Hirschfeld did not find truthful.
Kleiner Perkins has said Pao did not complain about the book of poetry when she first received it. The firm also says the book was purchased by the wife of the senior partner who gave it to Pao, and that she has mischaracterized the dinner discussion.
Pao said she wrote a memo to the firm in 2012 saying that women were being treated differently after it seemed that three female junior partners were not going to be promoted.
She had also learned that a female employee claimed she had been sexually harassed, she said.
Hirschfeld said he concluded that Pao did not encounter any discrimination or retaliation at Kleiner Perkins.
Pao was expected to resume her testimony on Tuesday. | {

‘Aggressive’ pet turkey was too much for me - but don't cook her, says owner | Paul Griffiths, 53, took in the turkey, called Lurky, four months ago, before having to give her up after he became too 'aggressive'
A man who adopted a pet turkey only to discover it was an untrainable, aggressive thief had to appeal for a new owner to take the animal - and not onto their Christmas dinner table.
Paul Griffiths, 53, took in the turkey, called Lurky, four months ago, along with 17 ducks and three chickens, to live with him and his daughter Ophelia at their farmhouse in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire.
Mr Griffiths, a construction worker, decided to adopt the fowl for Ophelia’s mother, Louise, who died from a stroke in April aged 52 and was fondly known to the family as the “crazy chicken lady”.
Bird became ‘aggressive’
However, he has now had to give Lurky up after the bird became “aggressive”.
Turkey-Lurky would regularly jump onto the kitchen counter to steal food and chase Ms Griffiths around the garden.
“When we first got her she was very friendly, you would be able to literally pick her up,” said the 21-year-old.
“So I tried to pick her up once, and then instead of her letting me do that, she basically just pecked my face and I had a massive bruise on my upper lip, she was horrible.”
“She would run up to you with her wings out, obviously turkeys are quite big animals, with her wings spread, and try to attack you,” she added.
Adult turkeys can run up to 25 miles per hour
Adult turkeys can grow to larger than ten kilograms and can run up to 25 miles per hour.
Ms Griffiths, who owns a dog-walking business, added that Lurky tried to “pick fights” with the chickens, but that the birds would fly away.
“She would peck anyone, as soon as you step foot in that garden, she was on you,” she said.
Lurky became “very aggressive” and “quite dominant in an area that she was in”, Ms Griffiths explained. “If you went to her area she would get quite aggressive.”
Muscovy ducks also wreaked havoc
The flock of Muscovy ducks also wreaked havoc on the Griffiths’ home, having already destroyed their garden and formed a “barricade” outside the house.
Speaking of the family’s decision to take in the fowl, Ms Griffiths said: “It was more of a ‘Oh let’s get some ducks’ and then all of a sudden we had too many ducks and it was just too much.”
“They weren’t allowed in the house, they were destroying all the grass and stuff, and it was becoming really muddy,” she added.
“They are also very food-oriented animals, they would stand right outside the back door like 24/7 and you wouldn’t be able to get outside with all of these ducks.
“It was like a barricade of ducks, it was crazy.”
New owner struggle to retrain Lurky
Feeding all the animals costs between £40 and £50 a month on corn alone, she added.
Experts believe that a new owner would struggle to try to retrain Lurky, or any of the other animals.
Dr Viola Ross-Smith, from The British Trust for Ornithology, told the BBC “that ship has sailed”.
She added: “They have a pecking order and maybe Turkey-Lurky thinks he’s the top bird in the whole house.”
After issuing a Facebook appeal for someone with experience owning birds to rehome Lurky and the ducks, several people came forward.
Ms Griffiths said she would prefer the birds to go “to a different sort of home where they can be used for their eggs and stuff like that”.
Lurky, who is estimated to be between two and three years old, was sold along with 11 of the ducks as pets on Saturday.
The family did not wish for Lurky to be cooked and eaten, with Mr Griffiths telling the BBC: “Yes, I eat turkey at Christmas... but not out of the garden.” | {

Tabu-Bruch der stärkt: Kunst zum Thema Tod | "Leben mit dem Tod" heißt die neue Ausstellung im Rostocker Waldemarhof. Mitten in dem interkulturellen Zentrum, Tür an Tür mit einem Kindergarten, geht es um das Lebensende und alles, was dazu gehört.
Plastiken zum Thema Tod, eine Schautafel über die Wege eines Leichnams in unterschiedlichen Kulturen, Bilder. Die Sozialpädagogin Stefanie Müller vom Künstlerisch Kreativen Treff im Stadtteil sieht sich zufrieden im großen Saal des Waldemarhofs um. Vor einem Jahr hat sie im Berliner Humboldt Forum die Ausstellung "Unendlich" gesehen, die sich zum Ziel gesetzt hatte, das Sterben aus der Tabu-Zone zu holen. Nachdem diese sehr erfolgreich war, schmiedete die Rostockerin den Plan, selber etwas Ähnliches auf die Beine zu stellen: "Ich weiß, dass die ganz große Anfragen dazu hatten, sogar weltweit, bis nach Australien. Das war ganz interessant, da war ich auch wirklich begeistert, dass das so weite Kreise zieht und wir haben gedacht, wir fragen auch einen Teil für uns davon an - und das haben wir auch bekommen."
Kunstwerke, die Kraft geben
Zusätzlich zu den Stücken aus Berlin haben Künstler*innen aus dem Stadtteil Ausstellungsstücke geschaffen - einen Grabstein, auf dem als letzter Wille der Wunsch nach einem legalen Parkplatz eingemeißelt ist, ein Mobile der abgegebenen Löffel, und es gibt eine sogenannte Trauermauer, die Birgit Kobert vom ambulanten Hospiz- und Kinderhospizdienst mitgebracht hat. Sie besteht aus Pappkartons mit Texten, Bildern und Erinnerungsstücken, gestaltet von Trauernden und auch von den ehrenamtlichen Mitarbeiter*innen, die damit ihre Erlebnisse verarbeiten.
"Sie steht normalerweise bei uns im Büro", erzählt Birgit Kobert. "Es gibt auch Kartons, die ich angefertigt habe. Das ist das Schöne: Es gibt Tage, da habe ich das Bedürfnis, mich vor einen gewissen Karton zu stellen, einen Moment Ruhe zu haben, mich an diejenige oder denjenigen zu erinnern. Das gibt mir auch Kraft."
Was passiert mit der Asche?
Den Tod als einen Teil des Lebens begreifbar zu machen, das ist das zentrale Anliegen der Ausstellungsmacher*innen. Im Vorfeld haben sie auch mit den Vorschulkindern von nebenan gesprochen: "Glaubt ihr eigentlich, dass das normal ist, wenn man stirbt?" Ein Kind meldet sich: "Ja, das ist normal, wenn man alt wird, stirbt man auch irgendwann." Die Kinder kennen sich bestens aus, auch mit dem Thema Beerdigung sind viele schon vertraut: "Da wird man in den Sarg gesteckt und dann wird man unter der Erde einfach begraben." Ein anderes Kind weiß: "Dann ist man zu Asche geworden." Auch wo die Asche dann hinkommt, wissen die Kinder: "Dann macht man das in ein Glas oder einen Topf." Man könne sie auch ins Meer kippen, meldet sich ein weiteres Kind.
Nicht für alle ist die Ausstellung geeignet
Eine Unbefangenheit, die sich Stefanie Müller auch von Erwachsenen wünschen würde. Wobei schon das Gespräch im Hause gezeigt hat, dass das nicht so einfach ist: "Die Kollegen von Dien Hong meinten beispielsweise: Wir müssen mal sehen, ob wir in eure Ausstellung gehen können. Denn die haben natürlich auch Menschen da, die aus Flüchtlingsgebieten kommen, also damit durchaus sehr deutlich konfrontiert waren. Und es ist gar nicht so klar, ob die sich mit diesem Thema heute und morgen auseinandersetzen können und wollen, weil sie teilweise traumatisiert sind." Die Gesellschaft für Gesundheit und Pädagogik, zu der die Einrichtung gehört, plant für den September eine weitere Veranstaltung, dann zur Suizidprävention.
"Leben mit dem Tod", die Ausstellung ist noch bis zum 20. Juni täglich von 10 bis 17 Uhr im Waldemarhof zu sehen - begleitet von Lesungen, Filmvorführungen und Gesprächsrunden. | {

Rwanda isn’t the new Brexit. The Tories are imploding over a pointless gimmick | It was never going to stop the boats, but it’s served to distract the party from talking about anything else
Who would have thought that plunging back into a Brexit-style parliamentary nightmare would be like easing into a soothing, warm bath? And yet, perversely, such seems to be the case for the Tory party as it slides back into its permawar comfort zone. This time, however, the Conservatives are tearing each other to pieces not over the momentous event of Britain’s departure from the EU, but over a tokenistic bid to send a few illegal immigrants to Rwanda.
The parallels with the dramatic, painstaking, ridiculous days of Theresa May’s Withdrawal Agreement are striking: a PM being urged to pull their flagship bill for their own good, No 10 waiting with bated breath as backbench legal eagles pore over the legislative texts, the Wets and Spartans digging their trenches, the elaborately bonkers plots to oust the “May-/Rishibot”.
The attempt to make the Rwanda policy into “the new Brexit” is surely a sign that the Conservative Party is suffering from a severe case of pathological nostalgia. As it enters the final stages of its lifecycle, it is, like any human sufferer of the condition, deriving comfort from the act of reliving aspects of its past. With the party besieged by messy mega-crises from all sides – from a collapsing NHS to a stagnant economy, too many Tories seem to have started yearning for simpler days when politics boiled down to a single existential question.
But let’s be real: the notion that the Rwanda scheme is the issue that the fate of the Tories and the nation hinges on is downright absurd. Yes, border control is a fundamentally important matter. The popular revolt against a liberal orthodoxy committed to unfettered immigration is bringing into motion a political paradigm shift that will eventually transform not only Britain but the wider West. But ultimately, the Rwanda project was never going to be the answer to any of that.
Given that only a fraction of Channel migrants would be sent to mainland Africa’s fourth smallest country, it was hardly ever going to serve as a realistic deterrent. Even No 10 insiders admit that the aim is merely to get a few flights off the ground before election day, temporarily placating voters. But when you consider that the country is in the grips of a dangerous stagnation, the fact that the Tory party should go to war with itself over Rwanda is even more extraordinary.
The Tories could be pulling together to seize on a more straightforward opportunity: to significantly reduce legal immigration. While business lobby groups and the Treasury might grumble, this is something that No 10 can do without being struck down by the courts. Last week, the Government belatedly announced a quite radical plan to toughen visa rules, entailing a drastic increase in the minimum salary requirements for skilled workers, and clamping down on the shortage occupation list, which allows firms to pay foreign workers 20 per cent less than the going rate.
And yet as the party’s Rwandagate wars steal headlines, these breakthroughs have already become chip paper.
Some Tories will be convinced that the internal party blood spilling will be worth it. Conservative strategists might hope that with a few Rwanda flights off the ground, they can shrink Labour’s lead to 10 points, resulting in a hung Parliament on polling day. But they are in danger of forgetting that, while taking control on immigration is important to the public, it is just one of the issues voters care about. In fact, immigration consistently ranks as the third most important issue, behind the state of the NHS and prospects for the economy.
If anything, it will be the slow-motion collapse of the unaffordable NHS that decides the next election. And yet the Tories, having whipped themselves into a frenzy that Rwanda is the question that will decide their fates, do not seem to have any energy left to dwell on the fact that their entire strategy to shore up healthcare votes has imploded.
The party unapologetically abandoned any attempt at reform in favour of ploughing ever more cash into the system. This has spectacularly backfired. Despite lavishing the NHS with historic spending increases, it has failed on promises as basic as building new hospitals and recruiting more GPs. The fact that Labour, the movement that more than any other fashioned the NHS into an object of civic worship, is now assailing it as a wasteful, bureaucratic monster is as big a tell as any that no party can retain the public’s confidence by simply spraying money at it.
The Tories should be exposing the flimsiness of Labour’s reform plans, from its lazy attempt to revive New Labour’s doomed polyclinics, to its managerial obsession with new hospital league tables. They should be putting their heads together to come up with more serious solutions, whether refashioning the NHS as a hybrid state-private model, or directing money from cash-guzzling hospitals to diagnostic innovation and anti-obesity prevention.
Instead, as Sunak quietly downgrades his pledge to slash waiting lists, his party has nothing to say. Tory campaign planners seem to think that the party can distract Red Wall voters from crumbling local health services by flying a few dozen immigrants to Kigali.
Even harder to forgive is that so many Tories seem more animated by Rwanda than the broader conundrum of Britain’s economic decline. Middle income households in Britain are 20 per cent poorer than their equivalents in Germany: it is a travesty that a Conservative government should have no plan for growth beyond a few minor tax cuts.
It is an even bigger scandal that the party has given up on its post-Brexit “Global Britain” vision. There is still an opportunity to salvage the project, centred around solving Britain’s productivity puzzle.
The key to doing so is to create an environment that attracts long-term international investment in capital and skills. While persnickety and unglamorous domestic reforms, like overhauling planning, apprenticeships and business taxation are important, leveraging Brexit to reinvent Britain as a life sciences superpower and Europe’s AI hub could also play a heroic, complementary role.
Alas the Tories no longer have any interest in grappling with the great challenges that threaten both the nation and the future of conservatism. There is falling on one’s sword. Then there is being knocked out with a bottle in a drunken bar fight. | {

With the party besieged by messy mega-crises from all sides – from a collapsing NHS to a stagnant economy, too many Tories seem to have started yearning for simpler days when politics boiled down to a single existential question.",
"But let’s be real: the notion that the Rwanda scheme is the issue that the fate of the Tories and the nation hinges on is downright absurd. Yes, border control is a fundamentally important matter. The popular revolt against a liberal orthodoxy committed to unfettered immigration is bringing into motion a political paradigm shift that will eventually transform not only Britain but the wider West. But ultimately, the Rwanda project was never going to be the answer to any of that.",
"Given that only a fraction of Channel migrants would be sent to mainland Africa’s fourth smallest country, it was hardly ever going to serve as a realistic deterrent. Even No 10 insiders admit that the aim is merely to get a few flights off the ground before election day, temporarily placating voters. But when you consider that the country is in the grips of a dangerous stagnation, the fact that the Tory party should go to war with itself over Rwanda is even more extraordinary.",
"The Tories could be pulling together to seize on a more straightforward opportunity: to significantly reduce legal immigration. While business lobby groups and the Treasury might grumble, this is something that No 10 can do without being struck down by the courts. Last week, the Government belatedly announced a quite radical plan to toughen visa rules, entailing a drastic increase in the minimum salary requirements for skilled workers, and clamping down on the shortage occupation list, which allows firms to pay foreign workers 20 per cent less than the going rate.",
"And yet as the party’s Rwandagate wars steal headlines, these breakthroughs have already become chip paper.",
"Some Tories will be convinced that the internal party blood spilling will be worth it. Conservative strategists might hope that with a few Rwanda flights off the ground, they can shrink Labour’s lead to 10 points, resulting in a hung Parliament on polling day. But they are in danger of forgetting that, while taking control on immigration is important to the public, it is just one of the issues voters care about. In fact, immigration consistently ranks as the third most important issue, behind the state of the NHS and prospects for the economy.",
"If anything, it will be the slow-motion collapse of the unaffordable NHS that decides the next election. And yet the Tories, having whipped themselves into a frenzy that Rwanda is the question that will decide their fates, do not seem to have any energy left to dwell on the fact that their entire strategy to shore up healthcare votes has imploded.",
"The party unapologetically abandoned any attempt at reform in favour of ploughing ever more cash into the system. This has spectacularly backfired. Despite lavishing the NHS with historic spending increases, it has failed on promises as basic as building new hospitals and recruiting more GPs. The fact that Labour, the movement that more than any other fashioned the NHS into an object of civic worship, is now assailing it as a wasteful, bureaucratic monster is as big a tell as any that no party can retain the public’s confidence by simply spraying money at it.",
"The Tories should be exposing the flimsiness of Labour’s reform plans, from its lazy attempt to revive New Labour’s doomed polyclinics, to its managerial obsession with new hospital league tables. They should be putting their heads together to come up with more serious solutions, whether refashioning the NHS as a hybrid state-private model, or directing money from cash-guzzling hospitals to diagnostic innovation and anti-obesity prevention.",
"Instead, as Sunak quietly downgrades his pledge to slash waiting lists, his party has nothing to say. Tory campaign planners seem to think that the party can distract Red Wall voters from crumbling local health services by flying a few dozen immigrants to Kigali.",
"Even harder to forgive is that so many Tories seem more animated by Rwanda than the broader conundrum of Britain’s economic decline. Middle income households in Britain are 20 per cent poorer than their equivalents in Germany: it is a travesty that a Conservative government should have no plan for growth beyond a few minor tax cuts.",
"It is an even bigger scandal that the party has given up on its post-Brexit “Global Britain” vision. There is still an opportunity to salvage the project, centred around solving Britain’s productivity puzzle.",
"The key to doing so is to create an environment that attracts long-term international investment in capital and skills. While persnickety and unglamorous domestic reforms, like overhauling planning, apprenticeships and business taxation are important, leveraging Brexit to reinvent Britain as a life sciences superpower and Europe’s AI hub could also play a heroic, complementary role.",
"Alas the Tories no longer have any interest in grappling with the great challenges that threaten both the nation and the future of conservatism. There is falling on one’s sword. Then there is being knocked out with a bottle in a drunken bar fight."

Wolves' Ryan Giles closes in on a £5m move to Luton | Ryan Giles was due to have a medical at Luton on Thursday before completing a £5million move to the Premier League newcomers from Wolves.
The 23-year-old, who can play anywhere on the left flank, developed at Molineux but has made only one first-team appearance, instead having seven different loan spells.
But Luton boss Rob Edwards knows Giles well from his time coaching Wolves’ youngsters and is confident he can make the step up to the top flight.
Giles spent last season on loan at Middlesbrough and was a key part of the team who reached the play-offs, but Luton’s promotion made them the more attractive option.
They have already added Tahith Chong, Mads Andersen, Chiedozie Ogbene and Marvelous Nakamba, as well as Issa Kabore on loan from Manchester City.
Giles would be the latest player to depart Wolves this summer as the club look to recoup significant funds from sales to balance the books.
Ruben Neves’ departure to Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal for a club-record £47.5m was the headline departure but Wolves have also sold Nathan Collins to Brentford for £23m, Conor Coady to Wolves for £7.5m and Raul Jimenez to Fulham for £5.5m.
There are likely to be other departures too, with Daniel Podence left out of the travelling squad for the pre-season training camp in Portugal and Jonny Castro Otto and Rayan Ait-Nouri also among the players boss Julen Lopetegui is no longer counting on.
As Lopetegui revealed this week, Wolves chairman Jeff Shi – the representative of owners Fosun Sports Group in Wolverhampton – has put the brakes on summer spending. | {

Hackers attack US reporters for Ethiopian TV service | More than a year after researchers revealed an electronic eavesdropping campaign aimed at D.C.-area journalists, the hackers are at it again.
Internet watchdog group Citizen Lab said in a report published Monday that hackers who attacked a U.S. employee of Ethiopian Satellite Television in 2013 have recently launched a new round of attacks using upgraded espionage software.
Citizen Lab, which is based at the University of Toronto’s Munk School of Global Affairs, says the hackers used three booby-trapped emails sent out in November and December. The broadcaster’s executive director, Neamin Zeleke — one of those targeted by the malicious messages — says it didn’t take a genius to figure out the same actors were at work.
“They didn’t even bother to change the email address,” he said.
Zeleke believes Ethiopia’s authoritarian government — one of Africa’s top jailers of journalists — is behind the hackers. He said it was part of a broader campaign of “threats, intimidation and cyberattacks” designed to stifle independent reporting outside the country. According to Human Rights Watch, at least 38 journalists have been charged under terrorism laws or the criminal code since 2010 — and 60 have been forced into exile over the same period.
“They want to know who is sending us information,” Zeleke said. “They will cut off our oxygen, which is information from inside the country.”
Ethiopian officials have previously denied such claims, but Citizen Lab said it linked the spyware to the Ethiopian government, citing internet protocol addresses traced to Ethiopia Telecom, the country’s state-run carrier, among other forensic clues.
The electronic messages — which carried suspicious-sounding asides such as “please note I have temporarily changed my email to this one” — may have been clumsy but the espionage software they carried was not. Citizen Lab identified the program as a product of Hacking Team — an Italian company that specializes in spyware geared to law enforcement and intelligence agencies.
Hacking Team spokesman Eric Rabe did not immediately respond to a written request for comment on the report. The Ethiopian Embassy in Washington did not immediately return messages asking for comment.
FBI spokesman Andrew Ames said the agency was “aware of the reporting” but declined further comment.

Mehr Unfälle mit Senioren: So steuern Fahrschulen gegen | Die Zahl der Unfälle mit Autofahrern ab 65 Jahren ist gestiegen. Eine Fahrschule in Ahrensburg zeigt, wie sich Senioren wieder fit fürs Autofahren machen lassen können.
Hochkonzentriert steuert Frank Tetzlaff seinen schwarzen Volvo durch die Straßen von Ahrensburg. "Oh ja, das mit dem Schulterblick, das hätte ich jetzt tatsächlich besser machen können“, wundert er sich und blickt noch einmal in den Rückspiegel. Der 82-jährige Herr Tetzlaff absolviert heute den "Fahrfitnesscheck" für ältere Verkehrsteilnehmer. Neben ihm: seine Fahrlehrerin Tina Behrend. Sie hat alles, was Herr Tetzlaff heute im Auto macht, genau im Blick.
"Ich bietet dieses Training seit 10 Jahren an. Meine 'Schüler' fahren 45 Minuten mit mir und ihrem eigenen Auto durch die Gegend und ich habe ein Auge auf das, was sie tun." Während der Fahrt unterhalten sich beide. So kann Tina Behrend sehen, ob der Fahrer sich währenddessen vielleicht ablenken lässt oder sich gut konzentrieren kann. Eingreifen kann sie nicht. Denn Doppelpedale vor dem Beifahrersitz, wie bei einem Fahrschulauto, gibt es nicht. Während der Fahrt macht sie dann auch darauf aufmerksam, wenn sie etwas beobachtet, was in dem Moment nicht so gut geklappt hat. So wie der leicht verbesserbare Schulterblick von Herrn Tetzlaff.
Die Zahl der Unfälle ist gestiegen
Und dass es bei den Senioren nicht immer so gut klappt, das zeigt auch der Verkehrssicherheitsbericht der Polizei Schleswig-Holstein. So hat es in der Altersgruppe der ab 65-Jährigen einen Anstieg bei den Verkehrsunfallbeteiligungen gegeben: Die Zahl der Verkehrsunfälle dieser Autofahrer ist von 5.044 (im Jahr 2022) auf 5.439 (im Jahr 2023) gestiegen. Das sind fast 8 Prozent mehr.
Eine bislang gute Fahrthistorie
Frank Tetzlaff ist schon lange auf den Straßen unterwegs: 1960 hat er seinen Führerschein gemacht. "Direkt beim ersten Versuch bestanden", lacht der Mann, dem man sein Alter nicht anmerkt. Unfälle habe er auch schon gehabt. "Zwei Kleinere“, wie er schmunzelnd sagt. Zwei Unfälle in 64 Jahren: "Ein gute Bilanz“, finden Herr Tetzlaff und seine Fahrlehrerin.
Und damit die auch so bleibt, besucht Herr Tetzlaff bereits zum zweiten Mal den Kurs von Tina Behrend.
"Ich mache das freiwillig. Obwohl ich mich bisher beim Fahren nicht unsicher fühle. Aber so ein Auto muss ja auch alle zwei Jahre zum TÜV. Warum sollte man das als Fahrer nicht auch tun." Frank Tetzlaff, Fahrschüler
Außerdem, so erklärt er, fände er es wichtig, wenn auf seine eigene Einschätzung nochmal jemand "geschult-objektives" drüberschaut. So wie eben Tina Behrend.
"Manche Fahrer brauchen Alternativen"
Und die heißt diese Eigeninitiative mehr als gut. "Im Alter klappt es oft mit der Beweglichkeit nicht mehr so gut. Auch das Halten der Fahrspur funktioniert bei einigen nicht mehr zuverlässig. Das kann man trainieren.“ Wer etwa seinen Kopf für den Schulterblick nicht mehr so gut drehen könne, der könne etwa seinen ganzen Körper mitdrehen. "Man kann andere Bewegungsabläufe üben und in den Fahralltag einbauen“, erklärt sie.
Wenn es nicht mehr anders geht, sollte Schluss sein
Aber, betont sie, auch das habe natürlich seine Grenzen. Wer zum Beispiel starke Arthrose in den Fingern hat und das Lenkrad nicht mehr umfassen kann oder ein eingeschränktes Gesichtsfeld hat, für den sei das eigenständige Autofahren dann wohl vorbei. 40-45 Senioren machen pro Jahr den Fahrfitnesscheck bei ihr. Diese Zahl habe sich in den vergangenen 10 Jahren auch nicht wirklich verändert, sagt sie. Wohl aber das Alter der Teilnehmer. Tina Behrend hat auch schon 92-Jährige neben sich gehabt.
Eine Idee für den Umgang mit Älteren im Auto
Doch, wie sollte der Gesetzgeber mit Senioren am Steuer umgehen? Verpflichtende Gesundheitstests ab einem bestimmten Alter? Führerschein weg, ab einem bestimmten Alter? "Nein“, sagt das Bundesverkehrsministerium. Staatliche Vorgaben, etwa die Verpflichtung zu einer regelmäßigen Prüfung der Fahrtauglichkeit, gibt es nicht und es gebe "für solche Maßnahmen auch keinen Grund“. Auch Tina Behrend, die im Fahrlehrerverband Schleswig-Holstein tätig ist, hat eine klare Haltung.
"Was eine gute Möglichkeit wäre, wäre, dass sich Autofahrer alle fünf Jahre einem Gesundheitscheck unterziehen. So wie Fahrerlehrer, Busfahrer oder auch LKW-Fahrer. Die müssen das ab dem 50. Lebensjahr tun." Tina Behrend, Fahrlehrerverband Schleswig-Holstein
Überschaubare Kosten für die Sicherheit
Herr Tetzlaff hat nun noch die letzten Minuten und Meter vor sich, um sich selbst und seine Begleiterin wieder sicher abzusetzen. Doch da gibt es plötzliche Komplikationen: Die Straße ist gesperrt, eine Umleitung ausgeschildert; ein leicht unübersichtlicher Schilderwald öffnet sich vor Herr Tetzlaffs Augen. "Ach, das ist für mich gar nicht so das Problem. Viel mehr ist es irritierend, dass ein Reporterteam in meinem Auto sitzt“, lacht er. Das Training kostet für ADAC-Mitglieder 75 Euro. 95 Euro wenn man kein Mitglied ist.
Das Fazit: durchweg positiv
Gekonnt parkt Herr Tetzlaff nach der Fahrt sein Gefährt vor der Fahrschule ein und bekommt das Feedback von Tina Behrend. "Ich kann hier bei allen Punkten der Checkliste meinen Haken setzen. Sie haben "stets“ die Lichtzeichen und Stoppschilder beachtet. Haben "stets“ den Abstand zum Vordermann und zur Seite gehalten und beim Abbiegen keine Kurven geschnitten“, resümiert sie.
Frank Tetzlaff geht so aus seiner Auffrischungsfahrt raus, wie er reingegangen ist: Positiv gestimmt. "Ich fühl mich gut, das lief doch prima“, meint er. Und: er wird wiederkommen. Im Sommer will er bei einem Theorieseminar mitmachen; sicher ist sicher. | {

Circus Montelino: Potsdamer Zirkusprojekt ringt um Finanzierung | Der Potsdamer Kinder- und Jugendcircus Montelino ringt um die Finanzierung seiner Sommerprogramme. Dieser Tage informierte der Verein in seinem Newsletter unter dem Betreff „Wir müssen sprechen! – finanzielle Situation im Verein“ über Probleme. Aktuell sei nur einer von sechs Fördermittelanträgen für die sechs geplanten und je 10.000 Euro teuren Programme bewilligt. „Das stellt die Frage nach der Durchführbarkeit der Sommerprogramme 2024 und die Frage nach dem Blick in die Zukunft.“
Montelino-Geschäftsführer Bileam Tröger bestätigt auf PNN-Anfrage die Situation. Im Verein Montelino trainierten im Schnitt 500 Kinder jede Woche. Die Sommerprogramme, bei denen die Kinder und Jugendliche das Gelernte im Zirkuszelt vorführen, seien im Vereinsleben ein Höhepunkt. Angesichts der schwieriger gewordenen Fördermittelsituation müsse aber über alternative Einnahmequellen und Einsparmöglichkeiten geredet werden.
Anders als in früheren Jahren sei die Finanzierung der Sommerprogramme durch Fördermittel noch nicht sicher. Der Verein setze dabei auf eine Mischung aus Fördermitteln von Bund, Land und Stadt. Das Trainingsangebot und die Feriencamps finanzierten sich dagegen hauptsächlich über Teilnehmerbeiträge. Unberührt von der Projektförderung sind die beiden Kinder- und Jugendtreffs im Bornstedter Feld, für die die Montelino gGmbH als freier Träger Geld von der Stadt bekommt.
Es stünden insgesamt in der Fördermittellandschaft zwar nicht weniger Mittel zur Verfügung, teils sogar deutlich mehr – aber der Bedarf sei stark gestiegen, sagt Tröger und verweist auf den Austausch mit anderen Zirkussen: „Wir sind in der Situation, dass gute Projekte auch eine Ablehnung bekommen.“ Für Montelino gehe es in diesem Jahr um dieselbe Summe wie 2023.
Man wolle nun im Verein und mit den Eltern eine Diskussion führen. „Wie wollen wir uns aufstellen, wie wichtig sind uns diese Aufführungen?“ Man baue darauf, dass die Mitglieder Ideen und Kontakte einbringen. Denkbar sei etwa ein Sponsoring durch Unternehmen.
Die Programme in diesem Sommer werden in jedem Fall wie geplant stattfinden, sagt Tröger. Für das kommende Jahr könne es aber zu Einschnitten kommen, sollte sich die Lage nicht ändern: „Darüber wollen wir frühzeitig ins Gespräch gehen.“ | {

I was in a dead end job and had just $900 - now I am a millionaire | A young mum-to-be has revealed how she turned $900 into millions after becoming frustrated with her minimum-wage job and budget lifestyle.
Sydel Sierra, 35, from Perth, chooses between her limited-edition Aston Martin, a Porsche and a Maserati every time she needs to leave the house.
She paid $4.5million cash for her Gold Coast 'family home' and is happy to drop $30,000 on a nice weekend away.
She is also completely debt-free.
But Sydel didn't come from money - and just seven years ago she was 'scraping by' on minimum wage while she ran her parents' martial arts academy.
She was earning $750 a week 'swapping time for money' and budgeted for even the most basic 'luxuries'.
'I pay $3000 a night for a hotel room now when I travel - the old me wouldn't believe it - I would have had to stretch for a whole three week trip,' she told FEMAIL.
The self-made multi-millionaire has kept her down-to-earth personality despite making more money than she ever thought possible.
In 2016 everything changed when she decided to take a huge risk and invest her entire savings in crypto currency.
'I kept hearing about it, so I read up on it and decided to have a go,' she said.
'I saved up $2,000 and I was so scared to invest it,' she admitted.
But one of her investments took off. She had put $900 in and within three months it had turned into $110,000.
'It was unbelievable I had never seen six figures before,' she said.
'I was terrified to manage my own money. I didn't want to make one wrong click and have it all disappear,' she said.
Despite her fears the young woman went from strength-to-strength and admits the gains were sometimes overwhelming.
'I would take $100,000 out to pay for part of my holiday - refresh the page and the investment had gone up by $200,000,' she said.
The young woman went on to 'scrape the cream off the top' off her investments to fund a new 'high-roller' lifestyle - and says it is important to be able to 'hit the cash out' button.
'It's important not to get too emotionally attached to the numbers on the screen - you need to turn them into real money by cashing out,' she said.
'Because then crypto-winter comes and the funds pull back by 90 per cent.'
These 'winters' can feel long and are 'less fun' but Sydel has managed to get through them without sacrificing the finer things - or getting a 'job'.
'There's less shopping sprees and splurging. But once you have been doing it for long enough you get ready for winter - and take enough out to fund your lifestyle before it drops off,' she said.
'Timing is important - people buy at the top and then get cynical. You have to be patient because when the next gold season comes it is better to have some skin in the game than none,' she said.
The young woman has a $4.5million crypto portfolio - but has also used her success in the space to buy investment property including homes, and farmland to diversify her portfolio.
Sydel was so excited when she started making money that she taught her parents how to do it too.
'They walked into the bank and paid off all their debt with a single cheque,' she said.
She said her parents were like many 'middle-class' business owners with a few different debts and mortgages.
She said she could have done it for them but teaching them how to do it felt incredible.
'They are now retired and are doing a lot of travelling,' she said.
The mum-to-be mostly travels or 'lives a holiday lifestyle' on the Gold Coast. She says 'working' is more of a hobby.
'I have written books, run a crypto training program and love public speaking,' she said. 'I just do things that I enjoy when I feel like doing them.'
But she no longer has to 'trade hours for money'.
In fact she often only puts a few hours a month of active effort into her portfolio.
Sydel could have retired after her first year of crypto investing, however decided to do a 'slow fade out' at the academy as it was a family business.
She has helped other people learn to trade and claims the end of 2024 and start of 2025 will be lucrative for people in the industry.
'This comes about every three or four years - I got in before it happened in 2016 and benefited again in 2021,' she said.
She said in 2021 she helped one woman invest who saw great success.
'She put in $4000 and is now worth over $9million,' she said.
Sydel is gearing up for the next gold season and suggests newbies invest some money in a 'safe' option like Ethereum - which won't have the huge financial rewards but will grow over time.
She says to then to pick a more risky 'coin' because sometimes they can bring incredible dividends - like her $900-$110,000 turnaround. | {

Why turning down an invite might not be the social setback once thought | A study suggests that people often overestimate the consequences of saying no
Saying no to party invitations might not be as bad as you think, a study has suggested.
According to the findings, which may come as welcome news to those feeling overwhelmed by events and commitments at this time of year, rejecting an invitation might not have the consequences people expect.
Some may consider it rude, but experts suggest people often overestimate the social consequences of saying no.
Julian Givi, an assistant professor at West Virginia University and the study’s lead author said: “I was once invited to an event that I absolutely did not want to attend, but I attended anyway because I was nervous that the person who invited me would be upset if I did not, and that appears to be a common experience.
“Our research shows, however, that the negative ramifications of saying no are much less severe than we expect.”
More than three-quarters (77 per cent) of people in the study said they had accepted an invitation to an activity they did not want to attend because they were worried about the consequences of declining.
Researchers conducted five experiments, with more than 2,000 people, to investigate if these concerns were justified.
Anger and disappointment
In one experiment people were asked to read a scenario where they either invited, or were invited by, one of their friends to a dinner on a Saturday night at a local restaurant with a celebrity chef.
Those who were given the invitation were told to imagine they declined because they already had plans during the day and wanted to spend a night at home relaxing.
Those who had been told to imagine giving the invitation were told the reason for their friend declining.
The study found that people who imagined turning down their friend’s invitation often believed it would immediately have negative ramifications for their relationship.
They were more likely to say that their friend would feel angry, disappointed and unlikely to invite them to future events than people who imagined being rejected rated themselves.
Dr Givi said: “Across our experiments, we consistently found that invitees overestimate the negative ramifications that arise in the eyes of inviters following an invitation decline.
“People tend to exaggerate the degree to which the person who issued the invitation will focus on the act of the invitee declining the invitation as opposed to the thoughts that passed through their head before they declined.”
In another experiment 160 people were recruited to take part in what was called a “couples survey” with their significant other.
Of the couples who took part, 4 per cent had been together for less than six months, 1 per cent six to 12 months, 21 per cent one to five years and 74 per cent had been together for more than five years.
One member of the couple was asked to leave the room, while the other wrote an invitation for an activity they would like to do in the next few weeks.
After reading the invitation, the partner who left was asked to write a rejection that said something along the lines of “I just want to stay at home and relax”.
The study found that regardless of how long the couple had been together, the person who rejected the invitation tended to believe their partner would be angrier, or more likely to feel as if the rejection meant they did not care about their partner than they actually did.
Helps avoid burnout
According to the researchers, the findings show people consistently overestimate how upset someone will be when they decline an invitation, even if they have a longstanding, close relationship.
“While there have been times when I have felt a little upset with someone who declined an invitation, our research gives us quite a bit of good reason to predict people overestimate the negative ramifications for our relationships,” said Dr Givi.
He added that people could benefit from turning down invitations when it could help them avoid burnout, as doing so will not necessarily have the major consequences they expect it will.
Dr Givi said: “Burnout is a real thing, especially around the holidays when we are often invited to too many events.
“Don’t be afraid to turn down invitations here and there. But, keep in mind that spending time with others is how relationships develop, so don’t decline every invitation.”
The research is published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. | {

Hesson: New Zealand-South Africa to be "a heck of a show" | AUCKLAND, New Zealand (AP) — New Zealand coach Mike Hesson says his team’s Cricket World Cup semifinal against South Africa on Tuesday will be “a heck of a show.”
That ranks as an effusive statement from the quiet, studious Hesson who specializes in casual understatement and takes pains to keep emotions constantly in check. He even struggles to downplay the significance or the potential of Tuesday’s match at Eden Park, which shapes as a collision between the hardest hitters and most destructive bowlers in world cricket.
Batsmen have reshaped the way one-day cricket is played in recent times, laying waste to the game’s many and most-enduring records. South Africans and New Zealanders have been at the forefront of that revolution.
South Africa captain AB de Villiers, who has the world’s fastest one-day international century, New Zealand’s Brendon McCullum who has a strike rate at this World Cup of 185.51, and Martin Guptill, who on Saturday against the West Indies produced the second-highest score in 50-overs internationals, the highest in a World Cup and only the fifth double century ODIs. These players and many more will share the stage at Eden Park and even Hesson can’t help but be excited.
“It’s a one-off game, we’re all desperate to be at the big party,” he said. “I think we’ll both turn up, two sides that are playing good cricket and it’s going to be a heck of a show.”
Hesson said that after its thrilling pool rounds, after four one-sided but still compelling quarterfinals, the World Cup has come to this ... survival of the fittest.
“I think the best four teams are in the semifinals and I don’t think many people could disagree with that,” he said. “South Africa on their day are exceptional. (But) you put them under pressure and we’ll see what happens.
“They’re a good side, very similar to us. They’ve got a lot of match-winners so if one or two don’t play up then you expect the other guys to turn up and put in a match-winning performance.”
Hesson says New Zealand and South Africa have no baggage coming into Tuesday’s match but it seems unlikley either side can avoid its history. South Africa had never won a knockout match at a Cricket World Cup until it beat Sri Lanka in its quarterfinal and, though that win was emphatic, it hasn’t entirely removed the belief that the Proteas are a team that falters in knockout games.
New Zealand has been to the semifinals on six previous occasions but has never gone further, leaving question marks around its ability to progress again. Hesson dismisses those factors and says that in preparing for Tuesday’s match, New Zealand will continue to focus on the process rather than the prize.
“As per normal we’ll focus on our own job,” he said. “We’re in a World Cup semifinal and we think we deserve to be there the way we’ve played.
“It’s an opportunity to put in another good show and that’s what we’ll focus on.”
So Hesson faces the bottom line. Can New Zealand win?
“I’m not sure,” he said. “We’ll have to wait and see.
“We’re playing some pretty good cricket but so are South Africa so we’ll just prepare as best we can and if we can make it to the big show, so to speak, we give ourselves the best chance, don’t we?”
One thing Hesson is sure of, New Zealand is not the side it was when he became coach two years ago and when it languished at the bottom of the world’s test and one-day rankings.
“I think something pretty big has happened over the last year or so,” he said. “We’ve gone from nine in the world to four and you only get there because you’ve got some pretty good players and, as I’ve said before, we’re lucky that we’ve got a lot of them.” | {

La Cour des comptes invite à rationaliser l'emploi des CRS et gendarmes mobiles | Les Sages déplorent que ces unités soient souvent employées pour des missions éloignées du maintien de l'ordre.
La Cour des comptes passe au crible la doctrine et l'emploi des forces mobiles. En clair: les 11.164 CRS et 12.502 gendarmes mobiles à la main du ministre de l’Intérieur, Gérald Darmanin. Leur rôle a été essentiel pour le rétablissement de l'ordre durant les émeutes de l'été 2023.
Dans un rapport rendu public ce mercredi par leur premier président Pierre Moscovici, les «sages de la rue Cambon» saluent l'implication de ces agents, policiers et gendarmes, dans les missions de sécurisation du pays mais aussi de lutte contre l'immigration illégale. Mais ils pointent également quelques déséquilibres et incohérences, dans la lignée de leur précédent rapport de 2017 sur le sujet qui préconisait des réformes.
«Succession de crises»
«Les recommandations ont été mises à mal par une succession de crises», celle des «gilets jaunes» notamment à l'hiver 2019, a concédé Pierre Moscovici. Le premier président a déploré que ces unités soient souvent employées pour des missions éloignées du maintien de l'ordre. Une police «bouche trou»? Une chose est sûre: malgré les évolutions constatées, «les règles d'emploi n'ont pas changé depuis 2015».
Les coûts de déplacement, de l'hébergement en mission, «souvent à l’hôtel» sont élevés. La Cour constate un quasi-doublement du coût de l'hôtellerie privée depuis 2017 : de 21 millions d'euros à 38 millions en 2022 pour les CRS.
Parmi les lourdeurs administratives évoquées dans le rapport: le principe de «non-sécabilité» des unités qui empêche de les scinder en deux sections et interdit de missionner les effectifs en des points distants. Cela «restreint les possibilités d'emploi», déplore la Cour. De même, précisent ces magistrats, la «réversibilité missionnelle», c’est-à-dire le changement de mission au cours d'un même service, d'une mission de sécurisation vers une mission de maintien de l'ordre, reste «fortement contrainte».
Appel à la vigilance sur le respect des temps de formation
Si elle salue la création de la CRS 8, cette unité dédiée à la lutte contre la violence urbaine, qui a été calquée pour constituer quatre nouvelles unités du même type, plus souples et réactives que les unités traditionnelles, la Cour met en garde sur la «coexistence sur le long terme d'unités de niveaux opérationnels et de doctrines d'emploi différents au sein des CRS». Elle appelle à la vigilance sur le respect des temps de formation des unités, les besoins opérationnels les obligeant souvent à «renoncer ou écourter des temps annuels de formation, au détriment de leur bon maintien en condition».
Selon ces magistrats, «le nombre de compagnies en formation/entraînement par jour est ainsi passé de 3,1 en 2018 à 2,2 en 2022».

PSG midfielder 'Marco Verratti reaches agreement with Al-Hilal' | Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti has reached an agreement with Al-Hilal over a three-year deal.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Verratti is ready to make the move but PSG president Nasser Al Khelaifi has no intention to accept Al-Hilal's current offer of £25m (€30m).
Al-Hilal are set to improve their offer for Verratti soon.
The news regarding Verratti comes after his PSG team-mate Kylian Mbappe turned down a world record move to Al-Hilal.
Mbappe refused to talk to Al-Hilal's delegation regarding a £259million move.
Mbappe and his entourage have no intention of negotiating despite a salary package of over £600million also being promised.
PSG have put Mbappe up for sale after he refused to extend his contract, which has a year left to run.
Real Madrid are interested in signing Mbappe but PSG don't want to lose him for free next year.
Verratti, meanwhile, has three years left on his contract at PSG.
The midfielder has been at PSG since 2012 and has made 416 appearances for the club. | {

One Nation Tory MPs will vote for Sunak's Rwanda bill | The Chair of the One Nation Caucus said 'the most important thing at this stage is to support the Bill'
The One Nation group of Tory MPs have said they will vote for Rishi Sunak’s Rwanda legislation despite their “concerns”.
Damian Green, chair of the One Nation Caucus, said: “We have taken the decision that the most important thing at this stage is to support the Bill despite our real concerns.
“We strongly urge the Government to stand firm against any attempt to amend the Bill in a way that would make it unacceptable to those who believe that support for the rule of law is a basic Conservative principle.”
The group represents at least 106 Conservative MPs, with key figures including Alicia Kearns, the chair of the foreign affairs committee.
Boost ahead of vote on Tuesday
The news will be a boost to Mr Sunak, who has faced pressure from the right of his party ahead of a vote on Tuesday to pull the legislation.
Speaking to reporters outside a One Nation meeting, Mr Green warned that the Government must “stick to its guns” on its proposals.
He said: “We support the Bill unamended, but if anyone brings forward any amendments that breach our international obligations or breach the rule of law, we vote against those amendments at future stages.
“We will vote with the Government tomorrow, but we want the Government to stick to its guns and stick to the text of this Bill.”
‘Government would be best advised to pull the Bill’
Some had speculated that prominent factions such as the European Research Group, led by the former armed forces minister Mark Francois, could back tomorrow’s legislation and seek to amend it further down the line.
However, the group’s “star chamber” of legal experts said the Bill as it stands “does not go far enough”, and members of the group appear to have hardened their stance against it.
Mr Francois told broadcasters on Tuesday afternoon: “The feeling very much in the [ERG] meeting is that the Government would be best advised to pull the Bill and to come up with a revised version that works better than this one which has so many holes in it.”
He said the existing Bill would be “quite difficult to amend” and it would be “far better to withdraw the Bill and come up with something which is much better written right from the word go”.
David Jones, the deputy chairman of the ERG and a member of its “star chamber”, echoed the call and said No10 should “consider a completely new piece of legislation”.
Robert Jenrick: Bill is fundamentally flawed
The news came as Robert Jenrick, who resigned as immigration minister last week, said the bill was “fundamentally flawed” if individuals could appeal against being sent to Rwanda.
He wrote on Twitter: “If individual claims are permitted everyone will make one, the court backlog will balloon, our detention capacity will become overwhelmed within days, people will simply be bailed, and new arrivals will simply abscond.
“The proposed bill is both legally and operationally fundamentally flawed.” | {

Vier Fragen an den Experten: Sollte ich trotz Schmerzen einfach weiterlaufen? | Das Mitbringsel aus dem Skiurlaub? Ein Kreuzbandriss. Das Ziehen in der Ferse nach dem Lauftraining? Eine Plantarfasziitis. Der Schmerz in der Hüfte? Möglicherweise eine Zerrung oder Arthrose. Sportverletzungen und -schäden gibt es viele – nicht alle müssen das endgültige Aus für das eigene Bewegungstraining bedeuten. Aber wie reagiert man am besten bei einer akuten Verletzung oder bei kleinen Wehwehchen? Ein Experte gibt Antwort.
Herr Rutkowski, nehmen wir an, ich habe leichte Schmerzen im Fuß, denke aber, irgendwie geht das schon und laufe weiter. Was sagen Sie dazu? Schmerz hat eine Funktion. Der Körper signalisiert damit: Hey, pass auf, da stimmt etwas nicht. Natürlich ist nicht jeder Schmerz so bedürftig, dass man gleich zum Arzt gehen muss. Aber ich sage mal, wenn man seinen Körper ein bisschen kennt – und das ist bei den meisten Sportlern der Fall –, dann sollte man auch entsprechend vernünftig sein und die Signale ernst nehmen.
Gerade Sportler, die ihren Sport sehr ambitioniert betreiben, also sehr ehrgeizig sind, ignorieren Schmerzen häufig. Bei denen heißt es dann: Ich muss auf meine Kilometer kommen! Und dann wird der Schmerz eher ausgeschaltet oder eine Tablette eingeworfen. Für mich ist der kritische Punkt erreicht, wenn ich merke, dass es einfach nicht weggeht. Oder wenn ein neues Problem dazukommt und sich ebenso hartnäckig hält. Spätestens dann sollte ein Arzt aufgesucht werden. Nicht nur, um das Problem zu therapieren, sondern auch um weitere Folgeschäden zu vermeiden.
Nehmen wir zum Beispiel die angesprochene Plantarfasziitis: Wenn ich durch die Schmerzen unrund laufe, kann es sein, dass irgendwann auch eine Schleimbeutelentzündung oder ein Hüft- oder Rückenschmerz dazu kommt. Also bei kleinen Beschwerden kann man dann eher erstmal ein bisschen rumdoktern, so wie es die meisten ja auch machen. Aber wenn der Leidensdruck doch größer wird, empfehle ich, professionelle Hilfe aufzusuchen.
Mal angenommen, ich habe dann im Herbst das Ticket für den Marathon, bin ganz glücklich darüber, merke aber – sagen wir mal im März –, dass die Sehne irgendwie doch zwickt. Oder dass eine Verletzung nicht richtig heilt. Was raten Sie?Da gibt es mehrere Ansätze, natürlich auch wieder sehr individuell zu sehen. Wie groß ist der Leidensdruck? Was hat das Ganze für eine Vorgeschichte, wie lang geht das schon etc. Aber prinzipiell, wenn der Schuh jetzt nicht ganz so drücken sollte, im Sinne von: Ich habe einen Zeitdruck, weil ich einen Lauf habe, kann man durch Ausgleichssport viel erreichen.
Tut mir zum Beispiel das Laufen weh, kann ich Fahrradfahren oder ich kann ins Fitnessstudio gehen. So kann man seine konditionelle Fitness einigermaßen halten, ohne die Schmerzen auslösende Sportart durchzuführen. Also Ausgleichssport wäre eine Möglichkeit, Schwimmen oder die Nutzung eines Crosstrainers.
Bei akuten Sachen kann man mit Salben arbeiten. Das wäre jetzt eher eine seichte Form. Ich kann auch mit Tabletten arbeiten – gerade, wenn es jetzt zwei Wochen vor dem Wettkampf ist, wird der Sportler natürlich auch mal zum Schmerzmittel greifen. Es lässt sich sicher auch mit einer Spritze nachhelfen oder mit Stoßwellen – es gibt diverse Möglichkeiten, um das zu unterstützen.
Und wenn ich mich so richtig verletze? Gibt es eine Art Faustregel, was man tun sollte?Ja, wenn etwas passiert ist, sollte man der sogenannten PECH-Regel folgen. Die gilt bei nahezu allen akuten Verletzungen. Also wenn man sich zum Beispiel einen Muskelfaserriss zuzieht oder umknickt, dann wird man nicht mit Wärme arbeiten, sondern nach der PECH-Regel vorgehen. PECH bedeutet: P für Pause, E für Eis, C für Compression, also Kompression und H für Hochlagern. Die Idee ist, dass wenn es irgendwo einblutet, es nicht weiterbluten kann bzw. wenn es anschwillt, dass die Schwellung sich nicht weiter ausbreitet.
Und je schneller man reagiert, und das ist die zweite Regel, desto besser. Grob über den Daumen bedeutet nämlich jede Stunde der versäumten Ersten Hilfe einen Tag mehr Regenerationszeit. Das klingt ein bisschen nach einer Bauernregel, aber grundsätzlich ist es eine ganz interessante Richtlinie.
Viele fangen mit dem Laufen oder anderen Sportarten erst im höheren Lebensalter an und fordern sich trotzdem richtig heraus. Welche Gefahren bestehen? Es ist wie so oft alles eine Frage der Dosis. Wenn ich das Training langsam aufbaue, kann ich auch in höherem Alter lange Distanzen, also auch einen Marathon laufen. Wer allerdings schon einen vorgeschädigten Bewegungsapparat hat, also zum Beispiel Arthrose im Knie, verlangt seinem Körper einfach zu viel ab und wird die entsprechende Quittung bekommen.
Um beim Laufen zu bleiben; grundsätzlich gehen viele Marathonläufer nicht ausreichend trainiert in einen Lauf. Das sieht man dann ab Kilometer 30 oder 35. Natürlich nicht bei den Spitzenläufern, sondern bei denen, die vier Stunden/plus laufen. Denen knicken die Sprunggelenke und die Knie weg, weil sie nicht stabil genug sind. Wenn es ein einmaliges Geschehen ist, kriegt der Körper das meist noch hin, aber wenn so etwas dann regelmäßig passiert, werden sie sich natürlich auch Probleme züchten. Der Verschleiß etc. ist dann vorprogrammiert, beziehungsweise ein bestehendes Problem kann dann verschlechtert werden. So ein Marathonlauf ist halt eine sehr große Belastung. Da passieren nicht nur akute Unfälle, sondern es entstehen auch irreversibel Schäden. Ein Arthrose-Knie mag es nicht, axial gestaucht zu werden, also die Last direkt von oben zu bekommen.
Am Ende ist der Rat immer: Trainieren Sie vernünftig und hören Sie auf die Zeichen des Körpers. So vermeidet man am besten Verletzungen oder das Fortschreiten von Schäden. | {

Jeopardy! contestant teacher arrested amid investigation into sex pics | Class ended early for students at a private school in Brooklyn after their teacher was led away in handcuffs on allegations he shared sexualized images on social media.
Winston Nguyen, 37, who taught math at St. Ann's School, a private school in the upmarket Brooklyn Heights area of the borough, had previously participated in the quiz show Jeopardy!.
So far, Nguyen, who has been teaching at the fee-paying $60,000-a-year school since 2020, has not been charged with any offense, but he has found himself in legal jeopardy in the past.
In 2019, Nguyen was jailed on Rikers Island for four months after he stole $300,000 from a 96-year-old blind man and his 92-year-old wife.
Further investigations are taking place into Nguyen's alleged conduct, according to the Kings County District Attorney's Office.
The school confirmed that he is being investigated for 'the dissemination of intimate images via social media.'
'Upon his arrest on Thursday, he was immediately placed on leave by the school and he remains on leave,' a spokesperson explained.
The school's principal, Kenyatte Reid, wrote to parents informing them of the arrest while asking for families who might have any further information regarding Ngyuen's conduct to come forward.
'This incident is very disturbing to all of us. We pride ourselves on our amazing faculty and a learning environment rooted in trust,' Reid wrote.
Seven years ago, Nguyen had another brush with the law and was arrested after he stole $300,000 while working as a home aide for a couple in their 90s.
Nguyen pleaded guilty serving jail time and probation while also being ordered to pay the money back.
Just three years later, Nguyen was teaching at the private school despite administrators being fully aware of his criminal record.
'A nonviolent criminal record may not preclude employment,' the St. Ann's spokeswoman said.
'The school gives a careful and discerning assessment of a job candidate's potential fit with the school
'We are fully cooperating with law enforcement in their efforts, and right now we're focused on helping our students process this news.'
Parents of children at the exclusive school appeared disturbed by Nguyen's arrest and criminal background.
'What does the vetting process look like? What does the background process look like,' one parent wondered to The Daily Beast.
'The idea that this was a person that was close to my children...it's terrifying. I see him as a manipulator and a con man,' the parent added.
Famous Brooklynites who have attended St. Anns in years gone by include Girls creator Lena Dunham, actress Jennifer Connelly, artist Jean-Michel Basquiat and Maya Hawk, the daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman.
When Nguyen worked as a home health aide he stole almost $300,000 from the elderly couple, Bernard and Florence Stoll, who were both in their 90s.
He was hired in 2009 to assist the blind man and his wife with day-to-day tasks.
He used the cash to pay for expensive ballet tickets, Broadway shows, and trips to Florida with his friends - all on his unsuspecting employer's dime.
He worked for the pair for six years until he was finally arrested after the couple's daughter-in-law found he had stolen from them.
Nguyen would use the couple’s bank account and credit cards making $100,000 in purchases and cash withdrawals.
He wrote himself $200,000 in checks and then opened up lines of credit using their information to the tune of $35,000.
He was able to mask the theft by changing the address on the couple’s bank statements to his own home address. He then doctored the statements to remove any of the fraudulent purchases.
Any calls from the banks asking about the money were also blocked after Nguyen placed a bar on the couple's phone.
Following the discovery of the theft, Nguyen pleaded not guilty to 32 counts of grand larceny, possession of stolen property and identity theft. | {

Aussie Liam Paro confident of 'almost impossible' upset | Unsung Australian Liam Paro is confident he can shock the world and tame one of boxing's biggest beasts Subriel Matias in his home lair.
Queenslander Paro (24-0, 15KOs) will start as the underdog against IBF junior-welterweight champion Matias (20-1, 20KOs) in Manati, Puerto Rico, on Sunday.
Ranked No.5 by the IBF, Paro has the skills and boxing ability to spring a major upset and underlined his quality with eye-caching stoppage wins in his last two fights.
The slick 28-year-old southpaw blasted out highly touted Sydneysider Brock Jarvis inside one round in October 2022 and went on to stop well-regarded American Montana Love in the sixth in San Francisco in December.
An unrelenting pressure fighter, the 32-year-old Matias has shown he can survive early attacks from opponents before using his physicality and strong punching to break them down.
The Puerto Rican was described by promoter Eddie Hearn as the 'boogeyman' of the division, but Paro said he was a 'million per cent' sure he had the game plan and tools to dethrone the champion.
'I'm feeling good. This is it, this is what dreams are made of … I'm ready to get it on,' Paro told broadcaster DAZN after the weigh-in.
'I'm excited to get in there and share the ring with him. He's a tremendous champion, but I believe I've had the right prep to shock the world.
'We've prepped perfect, the right sparring, and I'm ready. This is my time.
'I know what I'm getting into, I'm coming into the lion's den. Full respect to him, but I know it's going to get down and dirty.
'This is the biggest test, so I'm ready for anything.'
Matias, who will be making the second defence of the title he won in February 2023, has notched five straight knockouts since his only professional loss, which he subsequently avenged.
He is fighting In his home country for the first time since November 2019, having had his last six bouts in the United States.
'It's always great to defend your title in front of your people. They know what I'm capable of,' Matias told DAZN.
'I've taken the 0s from lots of fighters,' he added, referring to the first professional loss he inflicted on five of his previous opponents.
Hearn praised Paro for taking the fight in the champion's home country, where he said it was 'almost mission impossible'.
'(Paro) has the skill-set to cause (Matias) problems, he's a crafty southpaw with good feet,' Hearn said.
'He has a good mentality I don't think he's going to be overawed by the occasion.' | {

Rwanda Bill: Five key things the Government and Tory rebels disagree on | A ‘star chamber’ of Conservative lawyers does not believe legislation goes far enough but Rishi Sunak has published his own legal advice
Rishi Sunak’s emergency Rwanda legislation will fail to get deportation flights regularly in the air without lengthy legal challenges, a “star chamber” of Conservative lawyers has concluded.
The panel, led by Sir Bill Cash, the senior Tory MP, said the Bill provided a “partial and incomplete solution” to the problem of legal challenges being used by illegal migrants to delay or defeat their deportation to Rwanda.
“The Prime Minister may well be right when he claims that this is the ‘toughest piece of migration legislation ever put forward by a UK Government’, but we do not believe that it goes far enough to deliver the policy as intended,” it said.
The legislation declares Rwanda is a safe country for asylum seekers, and is underpinned by a new treaty whereby the African state has given legally binding assurances to safeguard deported migrants, after the Supreme Court ruled it unsafe. It also aims to limit the scope for legal actions that could prevent deportations.
The panel of four lawyers said the Bill would require “very significant amendments” to comprehensively resolve the flaws they had identified. Their verdict, delivered to the European Research Group of Tory Brexiteer MPs on Monday, came ahead of the crunch first vote on the Bill on Tuesday.
Their judgment is in direct conflict with the Prime Minister’s position that the number of successful claims against removal by migrants will be “vanishingly” small.
To support his contention, the Government published its own legal advice which said the “cumulative” effect of its measures would “preclude almost all grounds for individual challenge that could be used to suspend or frustrate removal”.
Individual claims
What the star chamber says:
Section Four of the Bill allows individual claims by migrants against deportation if they can provide compelling evidence that Rwanda would be unsafe for them personally. “Systemic” claims that Rwanda in general is unsafe are barred.
The star chamber said that simply by allowing individual claims, appeals, and injunctions, “the statutory scheme is open to significant levels of legal challenge”.
“Experience to date in cases about attempted removal of illegal migrants to Rwanda demonstrates that individual challenges are likely to be numerous, and that they have had a high rate of success,” it added.
It said migrants’ lawyers had put “significant effort” and “ingenuity’’ into making such claims, developing templates and how-to guides. “It must be assumed that this would continue,” it said.
“The line between personal and ‘general’ factors is undefined and untested. In short, clause four and the possibility of challenges on grounds other than safety in Rwanda represent a significant risk to the delivery of the scheme, and that risk could be determinative,” it said.
What the Government says:
The legal advice said the route for individual migrants to challenge their removal would be “exceptionally narrow”.
It said excluding such claims would mean those unfit to fly such as women in the late stages of pregnancy, or sufferers of very rare medical conditions that Rwanda could not care for, could be removed with no right to judicial scrutiny.
“Completely blocking any court challenges would be a breach of international law and alien to the UK’s constitutional tradition of liberty and justice, where even in wartime the UK has maintained access to the courts in order that individuals can uphold their rights and freedoms,” it said.
It cited articles two, three and 13 of the European Convention on Human Rights which required migrants to be able to challenge in UK courts their removal on the grounds of individual circumstances, and the availability of a legal remedy.
Threshold for claims
What the star chamber says:
Successful claims against deportation will have to show they faced imminent risk of “serious and irreparable harm” if deported to Rwanda. The star chamber warned this was “much easier to surmount than the words might suggest”.
It said it could mean medical statements of mental conditions which were not easy to prove or disprove such as suicidal ideation, political views that could lead to persecution in Rwanda or claims about personal vulnerabilities regarding housing.
Even if only some of the claims succeeded, the number of claims could hit hundreds a day, clogging up the courts and delaying flights, they said. “There is a serious risk that there will be no, or very few, actual removals to Rwanda for months after the Bill comes into force,” said the panel.
What the Government says:
The Government legal advice said “almost all grounds” for individual challenge had been removed. These included asylum (accounting for 90 per cent of last year’s small boat arrivals) and modern slavery (representing 71 per cent of those detained for removal in 2021).
This left only “very limited scope” for claims where migrants would have to produce “credible evidence” of “real, imminent and foreseeable risk of serious irreversible harm” if removed to Rwanda.
“This is an extremely high bar. You would not be able to simply say you have a mental health condition: you would have to prove, with evidence, that it could not be treated in Rwanda and that not treating it would lead directly to immediate and irreparable deterioration in your health,” according to a Government briefing paper for MPs.
To exclude this avenue would remove the Government’s ability to defend the scheme in Strasbourg and jeopardise the Rwanda policy as it would “go against Rwanda’s own explicit wishes that our partnership with them remains compliant with international law, and likely collapse the scheme”.
“Taken as a whole, the limited availability of domestic remedies maintains the constitutional balance between Parliament being able to legislate as it sees necessary, and the powers of our courts to hold the Government to account,” it added.
Strasbourg injunctions
What the star chamber says:
The Bill gives ministers powers to ignore Rule 39 injunctions issued by Strasbourg judges under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and which were used to block the first Rwanda flight in June 2022.
The star chamber said the power to ignore injunctions was discretionary, and would be blocked by the Attorney General Victoria Prentis, who regarded them as “binding” on the Government. It would mean the power could “never be used and is effectively a dead letter,” the panel said.
It said instead the Bill should be rewritten to require ministers to ignore Strasbourg injunctions rather than leaving them as a discretionary power.
What the Government says:
The Government has refused to disclose the Attorney General’s legal advice but maintains the clause gives ministers – and they alone – the power to decide whether the UK will comply with an interim measure. The Bill also makes clear that a UK court must not have regard to any Rule 39 injunctions.
Rishi Sunak has said he “will not allow foreign courts to block the flights”. Ministers are also negotiating reforms of the Rule 39 process to limit their application to “exceptional circumstances”, give them a right to present their case and to challenge rulings.
Disapplying the Human Rights Act
What the star chamber says:
The Bill exempts asylum claims from nearly all parts of the Human Rights Act but fails to exclude two sections, under which the emergency legislation could be ruled incompatible with the ECHR, said the star chamber.
It warned that if UK courts declared the law incompatible, it would make it increasingly difficult for the Government to “maintain its posture” that the Bill was in line with the UK’s international obligations.
What the Government says:
The Government said retaining the two parts of the Act meant Parliament and ministers could choose how to respond to an adverse court judgment. Neither would have any effect on the ability to get flights off the ground.
“The principle that Parliament and the Government should be able to address any determination by the courts of incompatibility, rather than primary legislation being quashed by the courts, is part of the fundamental basis of our constitution,” the Government said. | {

«Aucun attentat n'a été déjoué» le week-end de Pâques, affirme l'entourage de Thevenot, corrigeant ses propos | La porte-parole du gouvernement Prisca Thévenot a déclaré ce mercredi au sortir du Conseil des ministres qu’une tentative d’attentat avait été déjouée pendant le week-end de Pâques.
Une affirmation suivie d’un rétropédalage accéléré. Juste après la déclaration de la porte-parole du gouvernement Prisca Thévenot, selon laquelle une «tentative de passage à l'acte» a été déjouée pendant le week-end de Pâques, son entourage a rectifié auprès de l’AFP, affirmant qu’«aucun attentat n'a été déjoué ce week-end».
Vantant la «mobilisation» des forces de l'ordre renforcée en France à la suite de l'attentat djihadiste de Moscou, Prisca Thévenot n’avait pas donné davantage d’informations. «Lors de son point presse, la porte-parole du gouvernement faisait référence aux propos du ministère de l'Interieur et des Outre-mer de ce week-end qui a annoncé l'arrestation d'un individu début mars qui voulait s'en prendre à des lieux de culte», a finalement précisé son entourage.
45 attentats déjoués depuis 2017
«Car oui, il y a des tentatives de passages à l'acte et grâce à la mobilisation de ces hommes et de ces femmes au quotidien, nous pouvons éviter des drames», avait salué la porte-parole. Le dispositif Vigipirate a été relevé le 24 mars à son niveau maximal, «urgence attentat», après l'attaque meurtrière contre une salle de concert près de la capitale russe revendiquée par le groupe État islamique et qui a fait au moins 144 morts.
«Le ministre de l'Intérieur (Gérald Darmanin) avait annoncé que les 4530 établissements de culte, lieux de culte, allaient avoir une vigilance particulière avec 13.500 forces de l'ordre déployées partout sur le territoire» pour protéger les offices religieux pendant les fêtes de Pâques, a déclaré Prisca Thévenot en rendant compte du Conseil des ministres.
Prisca Thévenot a rappelé que «45 attentats» avaient été «déjoués depuis 2017», selon le bilan du gouvernement. Le premier ministre Gabriel Attal avait déjà affirmé la semaine dernière, avant le week-end de Pâques, que deux projets d'attentat avaient été «déjoués» en France depuis le début de l'année. | {

İYİ Parti, Ordu'da 455 sandığa itiraz etti - Ordu Haberleri | İYİ Parti Ordu Büyükşehir Belediye Başkan Adayı Enver Yılmaz, 19 ilçede toplam 455 sandığa itiraz ettiklerini açıkladı.
İYİ Parti Ordu Büyükşehir Belediye Başkan Adayı Enver Yılmaz, 19 ilçede toplam 455 sandığa itiraz ettiklerini açıkladı. Oylarının çalındığını iddia eden Yılmaz, “İYİ Parti ve Enver Yılmaz yazan bütün oy pusulalarına çift dikiş mühür vurmak suretiyle oyları iptal ettiler” dedi.
İYİ Parti Ordu Büyükşehir Belediye Başkan Adayı Enver Yılmaz, Seçim Koordinasyon Merkezi’nde seçim sonuçlarına ilişkin açıklamalarda bulundu. 19 ilçede 455 sandığa itiraz ettiklerini belirten Yılmaz, “2 bin 240 sandıktan toplam 455 sandığa yönelik itirazlarımızı bugün saat 15.00 itibarıyla gerçekleştirdik. 1 sandıkta ortalama 250 seçmenimizin olduğunu hesap edersek toplam 114 bin seçmenin iradesini ortaya koyacak doğru sonucun alınması için 19 ilçede itirazlarımızı yapmış olduk. Elimizdeki delillerle birlikte yapmış olduğumuz itirazlarımızın Yüksek Seçim Kurulu tarafından özellikle ve öncelikle ciddiye alınacağına inanıyoruz” diye konuştu.
‘RESMEN SANDIKTA GASP OLUŞTURULDU’
Yılmaz, açıklamasında, “Tam bir hukuk garabetinin olduğunu, özellikle 5 ilçede sandıkların erken açılmak suretiyle ve sandık başkanı dışında hiçbir personelinin kalmaması suretiyle resmen bir gasp oluşturuldu. Bu gaspa karşılık biz delillerimizle hukuki sürecimizi mahkemelere ve YSK’ya bildirdik. Saat 14.15’te açılmış bir tutanak. Halbuki saat 16.00’dan önce açıklanamaz. 133 oy başka partiye, Enver Yılmaz ve İYİ Parti’ye sıfır oy. Halbuki çetelede bizim aldığımız 49 oy yazdığı halde tutanağa yansıtılmamış bilinçli bir şekilde. Biliyorsunuz 3 oy pusulası var. Büyükşehir tutanaklarında hiç oy çıkmadı denilmiş, halbuki ilçe belediye seçimlerinde 26 oy, meclis seçimlerinde 22 oy demek suretiyle Büyükşehir'i sırf tutanaklara yansıtmamak için ilçe belediyesi ve meclis üyeliklerindeki evrakı unutmuşlar. 201 geçerli oyun 51’i geçerli sayılmış. 201 oyun 39’u geçersiz sayılmış. 201 oyun 43’ü geçersiz sayılmış. 237 oyun 141’i geçersiz sayılmış ve bunun yanında da sadece tutanakta iki imza var. Halbuki yasa 4 imza altındaki tutanakların geçersiz olduğunu ve pusulanın işleme alınmayacağını söylüyor. Bunun yanında yine 231 geçerli oyun 47’si geçersiz. Elimizde yüzlerce var bundan” ifadelerini kullandı.
‘93 BİN 992 GEÇERSİZ OY VAR’
"Bizim oylarımızı geçersiz kılmak için diğer siyasi partilerin pusulalarının üzerine basım yapıldı" iddiasında bulunan Yılmaz, konuşmasını şöyle sürdürdü:
"Katılım 2019 seçimlerinden daha az olmasına rağmen 16 bin 820 geçersiz oy var. Türkiye ortalamasının üzerinde daha fazla bir geçersiz oy Ordu’da maalesef kullanılmış oldu. 93 bin 992 geçersiz oy var. Bu geçersiz oylar Akkuş’ta, Ünye’de, Çatalpınar’da ve Kumru’da yoğunlaşıyor. Korgan ile Kumru ilçesinin sosyolojisi, insan yapısı, siyasi dengeleri birebir olmasına rağmen ben birisinde 6 bin öndeyim, diğerinde 6 bin gerideyim. Bu olmaz. Kırsal yoğunluğu dikkate aldığımızda Kumru ilçesi az önce örnekleriyle bahsetmeye çalıştığım senaryoya uygun bir zemini hayata geçirdiler. Ne yaptılar? Sandıkları erken kapattılar. İkinci ne yaptılar? Tam iftar saatinde sandık başkanları, sandık kurulu üyelerini gönderdiler. Sonra ne olduysa ondan sonra oldu. Saat 19.00’dan gece 23.00’e kadar hiçbir TV kanalında, ajanslarda Ordu ile ilgili giriş yapılmadı. Saat 19.00’da yüzde 10 öndeyken, saat gece 23.00 olduğunda bir baktık ki başa baş ve daha sonra geriye düştük. Yüksek Seçim Kurulu’ndan süreci objektif olarak takip edemedik. Bunun yanında ajanslar sağlıklı bilgi geçişi yapamadı. Çünkü bilgi geçemediler. Bizim elimizde şu anda ıslak imzalı tutanakların yüzde 98’i hazır. 'Talebimiz nedir?' Seçim kurullarının sandıkta kazandığımız seçimi Orduluların iradesinin gerçeğe yansıtılması. Biz adalet istiyoruz. Bu adaleti gerçekleştirecek olan hakimlerimize de güvendiğimizi, güvenmek istediğimizi özellikle belirtiyoruz. Ordululardan ne bekliyoruz? Bugün itibarıyla itirazlarımızı yaptık.

Scottish Parliament refuses FoI request over Michael Matheson’s £11,000 data bill | The Telegraph told Health Secretary’s right to privacy trumps taxpayers’ interests
Holyrood’s “secretive” authorities have refused to publish details of their dealings with Michael Matheson over the £11,000 roaming charges bill he charged the taxpayer because it would breach his rights.
The Scottish Parliament rejected a series of Freedom of Information requests by The Telegraph about its communications with the SNP Health Secretary over the bill he racked up on holiday in Morocco last Christmas.
It admitted it held some of the information requested, including key discussions over its decision to allow Mr Matheson to use the public purse to fund the bill rather than finding the money from his own pocket.
Holyrood also confirmed that it held documents assessing whether the usage by Mr Matheson of his parliamentary iPad was consistent with his claim at the time that the roaming charges related solely to parliamentary business.
But the Scottish Parliament refused to hand over the information, saying the public interest in disclosure would be “overridden by the rights of Mr Matheson MSP whose personal data fall within scope of the request”.
The parliament also claimed that making the information public would “prejudice substantially” any investigation by its ruling corporate body, the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body (SPCB) into the scandal, which is due to report back in the new year.
There was a “real risk” that disclosing the information “could restrict the willingness of individuals to cooperate with an investigation of this nature”, it told The Telegraph.
The parliament also argued that it would be “damaging” for the information to be released “in circumstances where it is expected that the investigation process will be conducted confidentially”.
Holyrood allowed Mr Matheson to use his taxpayer-funded expenses to fund £3,000 of the bill and provided the £7,935.74 balance from its own budget.
The Health Secretary paid back the money from his own pocket on Nov 10, two days after The Telegraph disclosed the bill. His annual salary is £118,511.
In a statement to MSPs, he claimed he had only found out on Nov 9 that his sons had used the iPad as an internet hotspot to watch football matches.
False story to media
But it later emerged he had falsely told the media on Nov 13 that nobody else had used the device and there was no personal use.
Neither the Falkirk West MSP nor the parliament have explained how they thought he had run up the bill on constituency business.
The roaming charges were made on Jan 2, the day of the Old Firm match between Rangers and Celtic, but this was a public holiday.
Stephen Kerr, a Scottish Tory MSP, said: “The public will rightly conclude the Scottish Parliament is being secretive but the public has a right to know.
“Michael Matheson’s reputation for truth telling has already gone up in flames and with it the credibility of Humza Yousaf and the SNP Government.
“But it shouldn’t be forgotten that the Scottish Parliament agreed to pay his £11,000 iPad data bill and the longer this sorry story goes on the more the reputation of the Scottish Parliament itself is being besmirched.”
In its reply to The Telegraph, the Scottish Parliament said: “The SPCB is required to conduct its investigation independently against the backdrop of a high degree of political sensitivity.
“As a matter of due process, there is a need to ensure that there is, and is seen to be, a fair and impartial investigation into these matters that respects the rights of the member subject to the investigation.
“The SPCB’s investigations are being conducted confidentially to preserve the fairness and integrity of the process.” It said releasing some of the information about his roaming charges would breach data protection rules.
Series of exemptions
The Scottish Parliament also refused to release the documents by using a series of exemptions under the Freedom of Information Act.
They included one that dealt with “prejudice to a public authority function to ascertain whether a person is responsible for conduct which is improper”. It also argued that publishing the information would harm “the effective conduct of public affairs”.
Rejecting a request for details of its communications with EE, the mobile provider that billed the parliament for the charges, it argued this would damage its “commercial interests”.
Releasing further details of EE’s charges would mean commercial pricing information could be released into the public domain”, the parliament argued.
Although it admitted its contract with EE had expired, it said there remained “a few legacy voice and data connections” that meant the information was still commercially sensitive.
The SNP said it was a matter for the Scottish Parliament and for Mr Kerr to take up with Jackson Carlaw, the Tory member of the SPCB. | {

Marlon Wayans hits back at trolls after show of support for LGBTQ+ | Marlon Wayans is standing his ground after after he shared his support for the LGBTQ+ community during Pride Month.
And given that he's the father of a trans child, the In Living Color alum's support for the community comes from a place close to his heart and home.
So it makes perfect sense he would stand up and defend himself from online bashers following his initial post on Friday where he shared pictures from his recent Pride-themed photoshoot he did with photographer Parrish Lewis.
'Happy PRIDE to all my LGBTQ+ peoples. Did a photo shoot with the great photographer @parrish_lewis dope pic,' he captioned the first image showing him sitting with a rainbow flag draped over his shoulder. 'P.S. I'm STRAIGHT… well, according to my child CISGENDER male. I just love and support my peoples,' he clarified before promoting that his comedy special Good Grief is now out on Prime Video.
Sadly, his initial post elicited scores of people to post hateful and bigoted comments, but let it be known there appeared to be even more people who showed support for Wayans, his son, and the LGBTQ+ community as a whole.
There were a number of people who used religion as their reasoning for criticizing Wayans.
'Just bcuz society is for this doesn’t mean it's right,' another faith-based person argued. 'The Bible speaks of this in the end times. You can still love your child and not be for this movement.'
Another user shot back, 'You can love the child but not SUPPORT a child behavior ….just my belief Queen.'
As part of the conversation an apparent LGBTQ+ community supporter argued, 'It's not a behavior. It's who they are. So you know more than them?'
The hateful replies didn't deter Wayans. In fact, they only inspired him to share more photos from the shoot.
'Yeah and just for the HATE MONGERS … I'm posting ANOTHER,' he captioned a second image showing him draped with the flag while sitting amongst a bunch of colorful balls.
'As a father of a child in the LGBTQ+ community I show my support. Zero f**ks what people think. If i lost you… GOOD! Your hateful a** never loved me in the first place,' he explained. 'How can you love anyone when you're too busy judging. Some of y'all funny. I'm a troll. I'll post all day.'
Wayans was met with a swell of support in the comments, including from niece Chaunte Wayans, who wrote, 'This is dope! Thank you for always supporting & letting me wear your clothes!'
Janelle Monae chimed in, 'Thank you!! Happy Pride to us!' while Tiffany Haddish and Mehcad Brooks both reacted with rainbow and rainbow flag emojis.
To hammer home his point, Wayans posted a third photo in the conversation, only this time he flashed a scary face while holding up a rainbow mask that he held up to cover part of his face.
'You mad?! I can do this s**t ALL DAY… but instead I think I'll do it ALL MONTH,' he proclaimed. 'HAPPY PRIDE Love and Laughter will always drown hate.'
He ended with another shameless promotion, writing, GOOD GRIEF on @primevideo NOW.'
About two hours later the Requiem For A Dream star shared another image of himself with the rainbow mask, as he flashes another look with his head tilted.
'Do i look like I really give a f**k?! Happy PRIDD month. Especially to all the hateful dudes out there mad because I’m supporting family and friends,' he wrote, adding, 'For people to be that homophobic wreaks of repressed feelings/desires. Bruh, don’t live like that. Come on out. Be you. That's what PRIDE is all about… acceptance. I swear i got soooo many more pics.'
Wayans had a slew of people come to his defense and show support for the LGBTQ+ community.
'A lot of you men a really showing your insecurity and homophobia in these comments. He did a photo shoot, his child is apart of the community, he’s an ally, what’s the problem?' one person argued.
Another critic posted: 'I always wondered how him and his brother played a [gay person] in movies so we'll now I know.' which garnered a simple but to the point reaction: 'He supports his kid wtf is the problem???'
Another Wayans supporter declared: ''Y'all better quit hating. That middle finger is cocked and loaded for you all. (Pause).'
One specific Instagram user shared some words of wisdom after taking in much of the war of words, writing, 'People want love and support, but hate when others support OTHERS! Make that make sense.'
Several people professing to be a part of the LGBTQ+ community shared their thanks to Wayans for supporting them as human beings.
Just last year, Wayans opened up about embracing his trans child, Kai, during an interview with The Breakfast Club.
'I just want my kids to be free," Wayans said at the time. "I want them to be free in spirit, free in thought, free to be themselves. The more you know yourself, the more you can govern yourself, the more you live your truth, the happier your existence.'
Wayans shares his kids Kai and Shawn with his ex-partner Angela Zackery, with whom he was in a relationship from 1992 to 2013.
He also has a young one-year-old daughter Axl, who he co-parents with ex-girlfriend Brittany Moreland. | {

AC Milan set to unveil Tony Roberts as new goalkeeping coach this week | AC Milan are due to unveil Tony Roberts as their new goalkeeping coach by the end of the week with his appointment thought to be welcomed by France star Mike Maignan.
Wolves confirmed on July 22 that Roberts, the former Wales international, would leave the club for a role in Europe and his appointment by Milan is set to be confirmed in the next 24 hours.
Roberts has followed Milan’s current No 1 Maignan closely over a number of seasons, from Maignan’s days as in the Paris St Germain youth system, and it is believed Maignan was enthusiastic when he heard Roberts’ name was on Milan’s shortlist.
Roberts is hugely respected within the game and had spent the last two seasons at Wolves, initially as part of Bruno Lage’s backroom team before also assisting current boss Julen Lopetegui.
Speaking on July 22, sporting director Matt Hobbs said: ‘Tony will certainly be missed, but it’s an unbelievable opportunity that he has received so we’d never stand in his way.
'He’s been up front and honest about the contact has had, and it’s a great chance for him and he goes with our full support.
‘Tony’s built the best goalkeeping department we’ve ever had at the club, in terms of the coaching available to the boys. We’ve done a lot of recruitment in the academy through Harry [Hooman] and his team.
‘The best thing I can say about Tony is what he’s leaving behind and the work he’s put in should make this change relatively seamless. Of course, Julen is disappointed, but understands why Tony wants to take the opportunity.’ | {

Premiership clubs to face squad limits under new regulations to cut costs | Exclusive: Professional Game Partnership proposal would reduce senior squads to 35 players plus 12 more from the academy
Maximum squad sizes will be imposed upon Premiership clubs as part of the new Professional Game Partnership with the Rugby Football Union, Telegraph Sport can reveal.
While discussions are continuing, the leading proposal will limit clubs to a maximum senior squad of 35 players with a further 12 players in a ‘transition’ group from their academy.
Capping the number of senior and academy players a club can carry was understood to be a key recommendation of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport advisers, Ralph Rimmer and Chris Pilling, who were appointed last summer by the government to create a more sustainable league after the loss of three Premiership clubs to administration last season.
The reduction from 13 to 10 teams means that there is no longer an overlap with the regular international windows so there is less need for teams to carry bloated squads to compensate for club v country clashes. The purpose of imposing an upper limit is designed to not only control costs but to encourage teams to put more faith in their academy players rather than relying on journeymen to fill holes. Young English players’ lack of game time has been cited as a key concern by Bill Sweeney, the RFU chief executive, heading into the PGP negotiations with the Premiership which are unlikely to conclude this year.
While some clubs who have traditionally carried small squads such as Sale Sharks and Northampton Saints would be unaffected by such a change, teams such as Bath, who have a total of 73 senior and academy players, and Harlequins, who have 47 senior players, would need to make significant cuts in the coming seasons.
“You need to hit that sweet spot,” a source close to the negotiations said. “You don’t want your squad to be too small where players are playing too much but you don’t want your squad to be too big where players never play. There are squads of 70 and there will be 10-15 players in that who play less than five games a season. That just does not help anyone.”
The transition group would have its own salary cap while clubs would carry a further “rookie” class for Under-20 and Under-19 up to a maximum of 15 players.
The controversial development of Premiership 2 in the place of the Championship and streamlining numbers within academies together with the introduction of a draft system are also means to ensure younger players receive more game time. There is a recognition that certain clubs benefit disproportionately from the current academy catchment system which leads to them hoarding talented young players with only the narrowest path to regular first-team rugby which is the single most critical ingredient to their development.
“Clubs need to identify the prospects who are really likely to break through,” the source added. “Also if you restrict those numbers then it allows other clubs to pick up some of those other talents who would otherwise be stockpiled. We would not want a load of young fly-halves to be queued up behind Marcus Smith at Harlequins because he will be there for the foreseeable future and they simply will not be playing.” | {

Legen und legen lassen: Frühester Nachweis von Haushühnern als Eierlieferanten | Wann Rinder, Schafe oder Schweine domestiziert wurden, ist weitgehend geklärt. Bei Hühnern sorgt diese Frage unter Fachleuten seit Jahren für Streit. Ein Grund für die Unklarheit ist auch, dass sich deren Knochen nicht lange halten und weil das Haushuhn (Gallus gallus domesticus) für verschiedene Zwecke genutzt wurde: für Rituale, zur Unterhaltung, für Fleisch, Federn und auch zur Versorgung mit Eiern.
Zumindest die Haltung von Hühnern als zuverlässige Lieferanten von Eiern reicht mindestens 2400 Jahre zurück. Das schließt eine Forschungsgruppe um Carli Peters vom Max-Planck-Institut für Geoanthropologie in Jena aus der Analyse von zwölf archäologischen Fundstätten in Zentralasien.
Eier auf der Seidenstraße
Diese Nutzung habe sich damals rapide entlang der Seidenstraße zum östlichen Mittelmeerraum und dann nach Europa verbreitet, schreibt die Gruppe im Fachjournal „Nature Communications“.
Wann und wo das Haushuhn domestiziert wurde, ist heftig umstritten. Das liegt auch daran, dass Vogelknochen und Fragmente von Eierschalen oft irrtümlich Hühnern zugeschrieben wurden, obwohl sie von anderen Tieren stammten, wie die Gruppe schreibt. Auch viele Datierungen erwiesen sich demnach als unzuverlässig oder falsch.
Allgemeine Einigkeit besteht aber darin, dass das Haushuhn wohl vom in Südasien heimischen Bankivahuhn (Gallus gallus) abstammt – dessen Lebensraum sich von Thailand bis Indien erstreckte –, möglicherweise aber auch von einem anderen Vertreter der Kammhühner (Gallus).
Nicht nur zur natürlichen Brutsaison
Die Gruppe um Peters untersuchte nun ein Dutzend Fundstätten in Zentralasien entlang der Seidenstraße. Der älteste Nachweis für Hühner als Eierlieferanten stammt aus Bash Tepa nahe der Stadt Bukhara in Usbekistan und geht auf etwa 400 vor Christus zurück. Eindeutig als Haushuhn-Eier identifiziert wurden die Schalenfragmente anhand von Rückständen typischer Proteine. Und dass diese Hühner nicht nur saisonal Eier legten, schließt die Studie aus der schieren Anzahl der Schalenfragmente.
Zwar ist unklar, über welche Zeiträume im Jahr und insgesamt wie viele Eier diese frühen Haushühner lieferten. Aber: Auf die wilden Vorläufer, die nur einmal im Jahr bis zu sechs Eier legten, können diese Mengen nicht zurückgehen. „Dies ist der früheste Nachweis für den Verlust des saisonalen Eierlegens, der bisher in archäologischen Aufzeichnungen gefunden wurde“, wird Studienleiter Robert Spengler in einer Mitteilung des Instituts zitiert.
Ab dem 4. Jahrhundert vor Christus fand das Team Schalen-Bruchstücke von Hühnereiern in großer Menge an allen in der Studie untersuchten archäologischen Orten, nicht aber an älteren archäologischen Stätten. Daraus schließt die Gruppe, dass sich Hühner mit dem Vorzug, über längere Zeit Eier zu legen, entlang der Seidenstraße rapide verbreiteten.
Generell jedoch seien Ursprung und Verbreitung von Haushühnern eine der rätselhaftesten Fragen in Bezug auf domestizierte Tiere überhaupt, stellte die Gruppe fest. Rinder, Ziegen und Schafe wurden vor etwa 10.000 Jahren domestiziert. Einigen Studien zufolge erfolgte dieser Schritt bei Hühnern vor mehr als 9000 Jahren – wahlweise in Burma, Indien, Thailand oder China.
Andere Untersuchungen gehen davon aus, dass die Tiere erst vor grob 3500 Jahren in Thailand domestiziert wurden. Manchen Theorien zufolge seien Hühner zunächst für rituelle Zwecke oder für Wettkämpfe gehalten worden, heißt es. So gibt es auf griechischer Keramik aus der Zeit um 620 vor Christus detaillierte Bilder von Hähnen in Kampfszenen. | {

Upscale Los Angeles neighborhood removes 'homophobic' no U-turn signs | City council members gathered this week in a posh LA neighborhood to remove 'No U-turn' signs that they say were a part of the area's homophobic history.
In 1997, signs that conveyed messages like, 'No cruising. No U-turns. Midnight to 6 am,' were posted throughout the Silver Lake neighborhood in an effort to curtail hookups among gay men.
On Monday, city leaders were joined by local LGBTQ+ individuals when they removed the final few 'No U-Turn' and 'No Cruising' signs.
In a statement, LA Councilmember Nithya Raman, who spearheaded the effort, said, 'Los Angeles has a rich history of welcoming the LGBTQIA+ community, but there has also been real and present homophobia- which at times has been inscribed into the city's physical spaces, as with these no-U-turn signs.'
When the signs were posted in the late '90s, gay men depended on printed guidebooks that offered the names of public places where they could connect with other queer individuals, sometimes for love and sex.
Along with several other locations, Silver Lake and West Hollywood, where similar signs were posted and taken down, loomed large in the homosexual community.
After the signs were removed, Councilman Higo Soto-Martinez wrote on X.com:
'This type of homophobia persisted in Silver Lake 30 years after the Black Cat protests,' he said, referring to one of the earliest examples in the US of a public protest against police brutality toward LGBT people.
Councilman Soto-Martinez continued: 'The physical remnants of that bigotry remained on our streets until yesterday, when we joined @nithyavraman to finally take the signs down.'
The LA Times, however, reported that some people present at the signs' removal were bemused and surprised to hear about the neighborhood's homophobic past 'particularly because the neighborhood was simultaneously a stronghold of queer resistance and resilience.'
Pickle, West Hollywood's inaugural 'drag queen laureate,' who spoke at the removal ceremony, said that she was unfamiliar with the signs.
'I was unaware of those signs and never would have found [them].'
Pickle added that the signs were an 'insidious' strain of discrimination that he and other people 'didn't have context for.'
Maebe A. Girl, a Silver Lake councilmember who was the first drag queen elected to public office in the US, made similar remarks, speaking of her ignorance of the signs.
'I was also surprised that these U-turn signs were still up, and at first, they seem a little... "Oh, ok, it's just a no U-turn sign,"' Girl said.
She continued: 'But when you learn the history of [the signs], you realize that these were used to profile gay people.'
'It's so important that we have these removed,' Girl added.
After a successful vote by the Silver Lake Council, the first 'No Cruising' signs were taken down in 2011.
The remaining 'No U-turn' and other related signs were left standing and nearly forgotten.
Then Silver Lake resident Donovan Daughtry alerted the city council to the issue after listening to a podcast concerning the neighborhood's queer history.
Although satisfied with the outcome, Councilman Soto-Martinez believes that more needs to be done to safeguard these types of places.
'I would completely agree that we need to do more to protect these spaces,' he said, before adding: 'It's not just unique to Los Angeles...we're all sort of facing the same very serious challenges.'
Albert LeBarron, who operates a gay bar in the area, reflected on the old complaints against queer people in the neighborhood.
'People driving around all night with the radios playing Madonna was probably not conducive to a quiet neighborhood like Silver Lake and the rowdiness inside the bars sometimes spilled outside,' he told the LA Times.
'But in all honesty, a lot of us are people walking or driving or kind of hanging out because they had nowhere else to go.' | {

Forgive me for doubting, Madonna: you are still a sister in arms | I thought she had betrayed us, but the the real traitor was me – for believing the misogynistic propaganda that she's a silly old woman
I owe one Ms Madonna Louise Ciccone a big apology. I had dismissed her and declared her irrelevant. A traitor even. And I was wrong. So wrong.
After adoring her in my twenties and thirties – seeing her at Wembley in 1987 – I had no interest in shelling out bundles of cash this time around, to see the now 65-year-old “Queen of Pop” on her latest “Celebration Tour”.
I’d seen the video of her tripping on a stupid cloak and falling off a stage. I’d seen her muttoning it up in the kind of corsets she’d made iconic in her prime. I’d seen the wrinkled-old-hands covered with gloves, which she adopted at a much younger age than Karl Lagerfeld did.
Worst of all I’d seen the Wildenstein plastic surgery – and I took it personally.
Looking at those pictures of the polyester pillow lips and wipe-clean cheek implants, I felt betrayed.
Born just one year before me she was a trailblazer for showing how a woman can own and control her success. Which was particularly impressive in an industry where so many young women are egregiously exploited and manipulated – some by their own fathers, hello Britney, hello Amy.
In stark contrast even to Taylor Swift, she’s always kept a tight grip on her creative and management processes. Alongside being a constantly evolving, boundary-pushing artistic genius.
For all those reasons, I always thought Madonna was going to be the one to show my generation of women how to grow old with cool style. Instead, she seemed to be going down the Hollywood Boulevard route, but in public.
Apparently so desperate to retain the male gaze in later life she seemed to have mutilated herself in the deluded pursuit of youthful appearance. Far from looking young, she looked grotesque in those pictures.
I felt betrayed, because – born a year apart – we kind of grew up together and I’d thought we were sisters in arms in the more nuanced second-wave resistance to the patriarchy. So, it was bewildering when she seemed to have gone over to the other side, lip implants first.
Especially from a woman who collects artworks by Frida Kahlo, Cindy Sherman and Jenny Holzer.
But on Tuesday night I went – almost accidentally, a friend had a spare ticket, so I pulled myself off the sofa and strolled along – to Madonna’s show at the O2.
I left feeling I might have been to the greatest concert of my life. (And I saw Blondie at the Marquee in 1977.)
Now I’m wondering if those plastic surgery pictures that upset me so much had actually been photoshopped.
Seeing her in real life, while she does have a forehead and cheeks as smooth as a crash helmet, she doesn’t have one of those weird American plastic flange faces, as she appears to in the infamous shots. She still looks like Madonna. With a slightly Barbie-doll finish admittedly, but still our Mads.
And in the context of her show, her surgically and chemically adjusted features didn’t seem jarring at all. It’s showbiz. All part of the razzle dazzle.
Because far more than just a creator of timelessly brilliant pop songs – and wow, did they stand up to scrutiny on Tuesday night – Madonna has always been a performer.
Just as in her 40-year oeuvre of iconic music videos, on stage she’s a creator and a curator of visual astonishments.
The whole theatrical spectacle of the Celebration show, compered by a larger-than-life drag queen (RuPaul’s Drag Race winner Bob the Drag Queen) wearing an oversized version of her Marie-Antoinette costume, was about chimeric artifice.
Everything on her stage was fluid, from the expressions of her own sexuality to the gender of her dancers. At one point they were all nearly naked and some that you might have thought were men had breasts and some you might have thought were women, didn’t.
At one point Madonna snogs one of them with commitment. Gender mutable and completely irrelevant – and everything much more interesting for it.
Later in the show species also becomes fluid as she turns into an alien, in a skintight faceted metallic Versace-does-Barbarella catsuit, her image transposed onto a fantastical Avatar-esque distant planet landscape on the giant back screen.
She sang that entire song on a raised platform lying down, which I thought was pure genius for an artiste more than eligible for a London transport travel pass.
She does a lot of her amazing dancing in the show with a company young enough to be her grandchildren, so seamlessly factoring in a few rest periods for the older star was very smart.
For the same reason, she wears a knee support throughout the show, even with the skimpiest Gaultier corset costume. There’s no sad attempt to conceal it, instead she proudly owns it: I’m 65 years old, I’ve been dancing all my life, one of my knees gives me jip. Have you seen my upper arms…?
And it’s that combination of strength, fearlessness and sheer pragmatism, with sublime style and artistry that makes me admire her just as much now, as I did forty years ago.
Towards the end of the show phrases appear on the big screen, Jenny Holzer style. “NO FEAR” said one, which was more than apparent to everyone watching – and “TO AGE IS A SIN” was another.
Tears filled my wrinkled and presbyopic 64-year-old eyes as I read that (happy it was in large print). Those five short words summed it all up.
In our culture women now have equal rights in law, MeToo has done its bit and women occupy many significant senior roles. We’ve had two women prime ministers in this country (well, one and a half…). But still those words are true – for women, to age is still a sin.
Standing there watching my contemporary entrance 20,000 people – the vast majority of them much younger than me – once again it was Madonna kicking back at the rules and changing the status quo through sheer talent and bravura – and no fear.
Which made me think, as I got ecstatically into the groove with the young women on either side of me, the traitor wasn’t Madonna, for having plastic surgery – but me, for believing the propaganda that she was ridiculous and laughable and irrelevant for having done so; a silly old woman.
When, in fact, Madonna Louise Ciccone chose to have some facial adjustments for one reason and one reason alone – because she wanted to.
And for continuing to live by only her rules, the Queen of Pop remains not only relevant, but a trailblazer for all women who don’t want to be told what to do. She’s still my sister in arms. Except, her arms are so much better than mine. | {

Michael Sam: Gay NFL players have reached out to him | DALLAS (AP) — Michael Sam says there are “a lot” of gay players in the NFL and some have reached out to him.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported Sam gave a speech Thursday at the Dallas Holocaust Museum and took questions from the audience.
Sam said: “I’m just saying there is a lot of us.” He added he’d never out a player who confided in him, but “there’s some famous people.”
Sam came out before last year’s NFL draft. The defensive end from Missouri was selected in the seventh round by the St. Louis Rams and cut in training camp. The Dallas Cowboys signed him to their practice squad but released him in October.
He’s currently a free agent.
Sam revealed he’s not talked to his father since Michael Sam Sr. criticized his son’s sexuality shortly after he came out. | {

Plus des trois quarts des plaintes pour violences sexuelles classées sans suite par la justice, selon une étude | Entre 2012 et 2021, ces violences ont représenté environ un million d'affaires, soit 4% de l'ensemble des affaires pénales terminées sur la période, selon une étude de l'Institut des politiques publiques.
Essentiellement au préjudice de femmes, le nombre de violences sexuelles et conjugales dénoncées n'a jamais été aussi important mais l'écrasante majorité des signalements sont classés sans suite faute de preuves, note une étude publiée mercredi. Entre 2012 et 2021, ces violences ont représenté environ un million d'affaires, soit 4% de l'ensemble des affaires pénales terminées sur la période, selon cette étude de l'Institut des politiques publiques (IPP).
Les faits de harcèlement en particulier sont de plus en plus dénoncés, même s'ils ne représentent que 4% des affaires (un tiers concerne des violences sexuelles dont 62% sont des agressions sexuelles, surtout sur mineurs), selon des données tirées du système Cassiopée utilisé pour la saisie, l'enregistrement et le traitement des dossiers de justice pénale.
Cette hausse coïncide avec le contexte de la vague #MeToo en 2017, du Grenelle des violences conjugales deux ans plus tard et la diffusion de nombreuses circulaires à destination des magistrats, souligne l'auteur de l'étude, Maëlle Stricot.
86% des plaintes pour violences sexuelles classées sans suite
Mais comme pour la plupart des infractions pénales, le taux de classement sans suite des plaintes par le parquet est considérable entre 2012 et 2021 : 86% pour les violences sexuelles, 72% pour les violences conjugales. Le motif n'est cependant pas nécessairement lié au fait que l'auteur soit inconnu mais du manque de preuves et au fait que ces violences soient, selon les magistrats, «insuffisamment caractérisées». Cette décision de classement concerne notamment plus d'une affaire de viol sur deux reçues par les parquets, selon l'étude.
Alors que les pouvoirs publics encouragent les victimes à porter plainte, «le traitement judiciaire qui s'ensuit constitue un enjeu majeur des politiques publiques», souligne Maëlle Stricot. Seuls 14% de suspects impliqués dans des affaires de violences sexuelles sont jugés et parmi eux 13% sont reconnus coupables (27% pour les auteurs de violences conjugales).
L'étude souligne par ailleurs que si le taux de classement sans suite a baissé entre 2016 et 2020 pour les violences conjugales, il a au contraire grimpé pour les violences sexuelles. Cela pourrait s'expliquer par une hausse de signalements d'incidents qui sont anciens, et par conséquent plus compliqués à prouver donc à poursuivre, suggère l'étude. Ce constat pose également la question des moyens humains et financiers ainsi que des formations pour faire face à la hausse des plaintes.
L'étude illustre en outre une réponse pénale plus sévère pour les auteurs de violences conjugales, avec des peines passant de 5,4 mois en moyenne en 2012 à 8 mois en 2021. Cette aggravation des sanctions peut être attribuée, selon l'autrice, à des procédures rapides telles que les comparutions immédiates, «généralement associées à des peines plus lourdes». Pour les affaires de harcèlement sexuel, les peines prononcées sont en moyenne de 6,8 mois, de 19,6 mois pour les agressions sexuelles et de 29,6 mois pour les viols. | {

Cubs and White Sox fans brawl, while a man is taken to hospital | Chicago Cubs and White Sox fans took their crosstown rivalry to a whole new level during their two-game series this week as a group were seen brawling in a suite at Guaranteed Rate Field.
The Cubs rallied to beat their local rival, the White Sox, 10-7 in the second game of the two-game series Wednesday night but the action was far more dramatic in the stands than on the diamond.
A group of both men and women in a mix of Cubs and White Sox jerseys were filmed fighting in a suite at the ballpark.
They pushed and shoved one another with one female supporter collapsing onto the row of seats as two rivals fans piled on top of her and began hitting her.
Others began throwing punches, while one woman violently swung her foot into another's face three times.
Bystanders finally managed to pull them apart and restore peace to the affair but not before a couple of the fans could get one final hit in.
The video was shared to Twitter by user @fierrorene83 who claimed to be sitting in an adjacent suite, writing: 'They were next to mine. We had dinner and a show haha.'
Fights at sports games, particularly MLB games, are quite common but they rarely break out in private suites, where fans seated together generally already know each other.
Chicago Police was unable to confirm to DailyMail.com if any arrests had been made in relation to the video.
However, another incident reportedly occurred with one supporter, known as Mai Tai Guy on Twitter, claimed he had been ganged up on in the bathroom during the game and had to be taken to hospital.
He shared a photo to the social media platform showing blood on his shoes, legs and glove.
He later added: 'I'm going to make it. Couple guys ganged up on me in the bathroom in LF. Been in worse spots. Go Cubs.'
Meanwhile, Chicago Police confirmed to Dailymail.com that a 33-year-old male had a physical altercation with three unknown offenders after a verbal dispute at Guaranteed Rate Field's address during the previous game on Tuesday night.
The victim sustained lacerations to his face and was transported to Insight Hospital, where he is now in stable condition.
The police said that no one is in custody but detectives are investigating.
Meanwhile, on the field the Cubs swept their crosstown rivals winning both games 7-3 and 10-7. | {

Channel Churchill and reclaim UK’s role in leading support for Ukraine, Sunak urged | Allies want Britain to step up as Germany, France and the US struggle to maintain backing for Kyiv, say sources
European leaders are urging Rishi Sunak to channel Winston Churchill and reclaim Britain’s role in leading Western support for Ukraine.
Allies want Britain to step up as Germany, France and the US struggle to maintain their backing for Kyiv, senior diplomatic sources have told The Telegraph.
“It’s clear there is no Churchill figure in the Tory ranks right now, and without it the rest of Europe seems to have forgotten what’s at stake,” said one source.
There are fears Europe and America’s waning support could leave Ukraine facing military defeat, despite promises that it could join the European Union and Nato.
Allies hope Mr Sunak can be the leader to “inject new momentum” into the response, with Emmanuel Macron, the French president. and Olaf Scholz, Germany’s chancellor, increasingly constrained.
It comes with Volodymr Zelensky, Ukraine’s president, set to hold crunch talks in Washington on Tuesday in a last-ditch attempt to unlock billions of dollars in US aid.
In a speech to US officers at the National Defense University in Washington, Mr Zelensky warned that failure to help his country defeat Russia would be a “dream” for the Kremlin.
Kyiv risks a double blow this week, with EU nations locked in disputes over a €50 billion financial lifeline and how to start negotiations for it to join the bloc at a summit in Brussels later this week.
Meanwhile, Russia is on the front foot on the battlefield and has benefited from a growing supply of arms from Iran and North Korea.
Olga Stefanishyna, Ukraine’s deputy prime minister for European integration, said on Monday that international promises to stand with her country were “100 per cent” being tested for the first time.
Germany has warned that it cannot afford to give Brussels additional cash because of domestic budget constraints, putting further strain on the talks over financial aid. At the same time, France was accused of not pulling its weight in the international effort to arm Ukraine.
Hungary has vowed to thwart the EU membership talks and a €100 billion increase to the bloc’s budget, half of which is earmarked for Ukraine.
“If none of the major players chip in, where does this leave Kyiv? Being overrun in front of the gates of the EU and Nato,” a diplomatic source told The Telegraph.
“The fear is that if Berlin doesn’t get out of the sadomasochistic budget whipping exercise, and if Macron’s preference is for big speeches over big support, we accept Kyiv and Europe lose this war.
“Now Scholz and Macron are too preoccupied with their own travails, Sunak should take the lead and bring them together to inject new momentum. It can’t go on like this.”
Figures released last week by the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, a German think tank tracking aid to Ukraine, said commitments had reached a new low between August and October.
Global promises of just €2.11 billion of support were offered to Kyiv, a 90 per cent decrease compared to the same period last year.
On Monday, Britain pledged to send amphibious landing vehicles to the Ukrainian army a day after committing mine-hunting ships. The UK built a reputation as being Ukraine’s most supportive ally in Europe, with Boris Johnson credited for spearheading the initial response to the Russian invasion.
The diplomat source said: “It’s clear there is no Churchill figure in the Tory ranks right now, and without it the rest of Europe seems to have forgotten what’s at stake.”
In Kyiv, Lord Cameron, the Foreign Secretary, is seen as having the potential to publicly champion Europe’s long-term support for Ukraine, while Mr Sunak takes a more “strategic” backseat role.
“You have a pretty charismatic minister of foreign affairs,” Ms Stefanishyna told the Telegraph. “He has a lot of energy and could be the one speaking here and there, building the energy.
“But the Prime Minister is really expected to be strategic, to ensure the principles of ‘as long as it takes’ are enshrined into multi-year support.” | {

China says ‘enough is enough’ on UN envoy joint trip inside besieged Gaza | Move comes just days after Secretary General Antonio Guterres warns that 1,000s in Gaza were ‘simply starving’
China’s ambassador to the UN said “enough is enough” as he joined a Security Council visit to the besieged Gaza Strip.
It came after the United States vetoed a proposed Security Council demand for an immediate ceasefire as Israeli tanks and troops press an invasion that has displaced most of Gaza’s population and killed more than 18,000 people.
A dozen UN Security Council envoys attended the trip organised by the United Arab Emirates to visit Rafah, just days after Secretary General Antonio Guterres warned that thousands of people in the besieged Palestinian enclave were “simply starving”.
A majority of UN member states support an immediate and lasting ceasefire between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas, which controls Gaza, as dire conditions worsen for its 2.3 million residents.
After flying to the town of Al-Arish they were briefed by the UN Palestinian refugee agency (UNRWA) on conditions in Gaza before heading towards Rafah 30 miles away.
China’s representative to the United Nations, Zhang Jun, asked by reporters if he had a message to countries which opposed a ceasefire in Gaza, said simply: “Enough is enough.”
That view was backed up by Ecuador’s UN representative Jose De La Gasca who said after the UNRWA briefing: “The reality is even worse than what words can speak. We need to see...we will witness what is happening and what can we do in order to address the situation.”
Israel has bombarded Gaza from the air and from land, imposed a siege and mounted a ground offensive in retaliation for the October 7 attack by Hamas that Israel says killed 1,200 people and saw 240 people taken hostage. Gaza health authorities say about 18,000 people have been killed by Israeli attacks, with 49,500 injured.
The vast majority of the Palestinian enclave’s 2.3 million people have been driven from their homes.
UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini described an “implosion of civil order” where Gazans who have not eaten for days looted aid distribution centres and stopped trucks on roads as they tried to secure supplies for their families.
“There is not enough assistance,” Mr Lazzarini said. “Hunger is prevailing in Gaza...most of the people are just sleeping on the concrete.”
Limited humanitarian aid and fuel deliveries have crossed into Gaza via the Rafah crossing, but aid officials say it comes nowhere near to satisfying the most basic needs of Gazans.
The 15-member Security Council is negotiating a UAE-drafted resolution that demands warring parties “allow the use of all land, sea and air routes to and throughout” Gaza for aid.
It would also establish a UN-run aid monitoring mechanism in Gaza. It was not clear when the draft resolution could be put to a vote.
Mr Guterres last week formally warned the Security Council of the global threat to peace and security posed by the conflict. He told it that half of Gazans in the north of the territory and at least a third of those displaced in the south were “simply starving” and later criticised it for having “failed” to help bring about a humanitarian ceasefire.
The UN General Assembly will meet on Gaza on Tuesday at the request of Arab and Muslim states. The 193-member body is likely to vote on a draft resolution demanding an immediate humanitarian ceasefire, diplomats said.
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said that 100 trucks carrying humanitarian supplies entered Gaza from Egypt on Sunday, the same number as the previous day. It noted that was “well below” the daily average of 500 truckloads, including fuel, that entered every working day before October 7.
A UNICEF employee, speaking to reporters on the condition of anonymity, said the logistics centre near Al-Arish was storing items Israel had banned from being sent into Gaza, including solar panels and an ultrasound machine. The employee said they were banned because they were electrical and contained metal. | {

Motor mishap: Indians manager Francona's scooter wrecked | GOODYEAR, Ariz. (AP) — The Indians have their first major injury of the spring — manager Terry Francona’s red scooter is on the disabled list.
Francona said Thursday that the scooter he rides around during training camp and to and from Progressive Field in downtown Cleveland during the regular season was wrecked recently by a team employee during a promotional video shoot.
Francona was pleased to report that the unnamed rider is doing fine, but that his two-wheeled vehicle is going to require some maintenance.
“It’s in the shop,” he said, “as is the kid.”
Francona didn’t reveal the exact nature of the scooter’s problems, but indicated it could be some time before the motorized bike is back on the streets. It’s day to day with dings and dents.
Now in his third season with Cleveland, Francona, who won two World Series titles with the Boston Red Sox, joked that the accident has created some tension.
“It’s probably the first time in my experience with the Indians that there’s been a little bit of a rift,” Francona cracked.
The motorized mishap may have remained a secret before Francona mentioned to reporters that he needed a ride to one of the back fields at the Indians’ training complex to watch a “B’’ game.
The scooter has become almost as symbolic of Francona as the large wad of bubble gum he chomps in the dugout during games. The Indians are having a Francona scooter bobblehead giveaway later in the season. | {

Mesterliga-kvalifiseringen: Bodø/Glimt med sterk borteseier i Polen | Bodø/Glimt fortsetter å levere i Europa. Jens Petter Hauge (24) var eneste målscorer mot Jagiellonia Białystok og sikret et godt utgangspunkt før returkampen i Bodø.
Denne høsten håper Bodø/Glimt å kvalifisere seg for Mesterligaen for aller første gang. Den norske serielederen tok seg komfortabelt videre til tredje kvalikrunde etter 7–1 sammenlagt mot RFS
Onsdag kveld ventet imidlertid betydelig tøffere motstand i Jagiellonia Białystok, som vant polske Ekstraliga forrige sesong.
Jens Petter Hauge (24) sørget for å sende Glimt i ledelsen via en motspiller etter 57 minutter.
– Det var en god følelse å se ballen gå i mål. Det var en tøff kamp med en kul ramme rundt og det er utrolig deilig at vi vinner til slutt, sier matcvinner Hauge til Avisa Nordland etter kampen.
Glimt vant til slutt 1–0 i Polen og har dermed ett mål å gå på i returkampen neste tirsdag.
– Vi gjør en voksen og solid bortekamp. Det er en vanskelig bane her, som er vanskeligere enn man tror. Vi har vært noen ganger i Polen. Denne gangen var alle gode ting tre, sier Glimt-trener Kjetil Knutsen til Avisa Nordland.
Startet best
Til tross for trykket fra hjemmesupporterne var det gjestene som kom best i gang. Håkon Evjen løsnet et skudd fra 16 meters hold, men forsøket gikk utenfor via en motspiller.
Glimt fortsatte presset mot polakkene i starten av første omgang, uten å skape de helt store sjansene.
Utover i omgangen var det derimot vertene som tok kontroll over kampen. Glimt-keeper Nikita Haikin måtte i aksjonen flere ganger, men hjemmelaget fant aldri veien til mål.
Sendte Glimt i Ledelsen
Andre omgang startet som den første. Et halvt minutt inn etter hvilen fik Glimt-spiss Kasper Høgh stå helt alene og avslutte fra kort hold, men forsøket gikk utenfor fra den målkåte dansken.
Etter 57 minutter skulle det endelig lykkes for de norske mesterne.
Jens-Petter Hauge (24) satt fart fra venstrekanten, og på innlegget inn i boksen satt vertenes Adrian Dieguez ballen i eget mål. Dermed var Glimt i førersetet i Polen.
Drøye syv minutter senere kunne like mange bortesupportere juble igjen.
På et hjørnespark stanget Brede Moe ballen i mål, men målet ble annullert av VAR etter en dytt fra lagkamerat Sondre Brunstad Fet.
Moe ut med skade
Like før slutt kom Moe i sentrum igjen, med negativt fortegn. Stopperbautaen satte seg ned på gressmatta med tydeligere smerter og ble byttet ut med en skade.
Tar Glimt seg videre etter oppgjøret på Aspmyra neste uke, venter playoff mot den serbiske storklubben Røde Stjerne.
Men først skal returkampen spilles i Bodø neste tirsdag. Går Glimt tapende ut der blir det playoff i Europaligaen mot Ajax eller Panathinaikos. | {

Vanderpump Rules' Ariana Madix refuses to film with ex Tom Sandoval | Filming for the ongoing eleventh season of Vanderpump Rules has gotten even more difficult than user as its star Ariana Madix refuses to shoot any scenes along with her ex-boyfriend Tom Sandoval.
The 38-year-old reality star has so far shut down any opportunity to have a one-on-one scene with her philandering ex, TMZ reported on Thursday.
Sources connected to the show claimed that the two have only been as close as filming inside Lisa Vanderpump's SUR restaurant, a regular shooting location for the series.
The refusal potentially threatens to rob producers of chances to milk the Scandoval drama that has kept fans on the edge of their seat for months.
Adding to the challenges is the lack of screen time from Rachel Leviss — who reverted to her birth name from her stage name 'Raquel' after undergoing therapy — as she has so far not stepped in front of a camera since filming began.
Vanderpump has been back to filming its eleventh season since late May, according to the publication, but the production still has nothing to show for it when it comes to getting the trio at the heart of the Scandoval to confront each other.
Sources added that Ariana has no interest in confronting or speaking to Tom at all, leaving little hope that she'll change her mind and agree to a meet-up.
They added that, though she hasn't spoken 'directly' to Tom since the pyrotechnics of the season ten reunion, she has communicated with him via other cast members as intermediaries.
The insiders noted that production is slated to wrap up around the first week of September, so there is little time to convince Ariana and Tom to hash out their differences, though it's a priority for producers.
TMZ also noted the difficulties that Rachel Leviss is presenting for the production.
Although she is reportedly bound by a contract to film through season eleven, she has so far refused to appear on camera.
It was previously reported in June that she had been negotiating with the production, though it later became clear that she was just trying to change the terms of her existing contract.
However, Vanderpump Rules may not be able to compel her to show up for filming, as California Law would reportedly allow her to get out of the contract if a doctor agrees that it is harming her mental health, something presumably wouldn't be difficult to get.
It's unclear if she is holding out for more money, or if the show is even willing to meet any of her demands.
Even if Ariana is refusing to share the screen with her former partner, she has clearly been living her best life recently.
The reality star glowed this week when she appeared on the popular dating competition series Love Island USA in a shimmering turquoise halter dress.
It was seemingly a dream-come-true moment for her, as she is a huge fan of the series.
The appearance, which featured her hosting a competition for the contestants, also included some thinly veiled jabs at Tom.
Her cameo was significant to VR fans, as Tom had previously bickered with her over the series in an episode that aired in May.
After Ariana had expressed a desire for more quality time together, he shot back: 'I don’t have time to watch 50 goddamn episodes of Love Island. That is your definition of quality time, not the definition of quality time.' | {

Cop28 summit ‘on verge of failure’ after UAE abandons fossil fuel pledge | New weaker draft only states that production and consumption of polluting fuels ‘could’ be reduced, rather than stopped completely
The UN Cop28 summit is on the “verge of complete failure” after the UAE ditched a commitment to phase out fossil fuels.
Released on the eve of the final day of the climate change conference, the new weaker draft of an agreement only pledges that the production and consumption of the polluting fuels “could” be reduced, rather than stopped completely, to reach net zero by 2050.
An earlier version of the agreement said signatories would agree to phasing out fossil fuels entirely, but the UAE was under pressure from other oil-producing nations, led by Saudi Arabia.
The EU threatened to walk away from the talks unless the draft was changed, while the US warned the language over fossil fuels would have to be “substantially strengthened”.
Almost 200 countries are represented at the 13 days of international talks in Dubai and all must agree or a potentially historic deal will collapse.
There was fury from negotiators and campaigners at the summit where there had been hopes of striking a landmark climate deal to rival the vow struck in Paris in 2015 to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees.
Neighbouring Saudi Arabia had put pressure on Sultan Ahmed al-Jaber, Cop28 president and head of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, to water down the draft deal, they said.
The Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) had also urged its members, which include the UAE, to vote against a phase-out of fossil fuels.
‘An obsequious draft’
Al Gore, the former US vice-president turned environmental campaigner, said: “Cop28 is now on the verge of complete failure. The world desperately needs to phase out fossil fuels as quickly as possible, but this obsequious draft reads as if OPEC dictated it word for word.
“It is even worse than many had feared. It is ‘Of the Petrostates, by the Petrostates and for the Petrostates’.”
Mr Gore, who won a Nobel Peace Prize for his work on climate change, said the text must “include clear language on phasing out fossil fuels” or Cop28 would be “the most embarrassing and dismal failure in 28 years of international climate negotiations”.
Small island states threatened by rising ocean levels warned they would not sign their own “death warrant” in Dubai and lashed out at the “weak language” on fossil fuels.
“We will not go silently to our watery graves,” said John Silk, minister of natural resources and commerce for the Marshall Islands.
Speaking in Dubai, Annalena Baerbock, Germany’s foreign minister, said that the draft deal was disappointing. Replacing fossil fuels was completely absent from the draft deal, she said, meaning Germany could not support it.
The draft was “clearly insufficient”, added Wopke Hoekstra, the EU climate commissioner, in comments echoed by French officials.
Before the draft was released, António Guterres, the secretary-general of the UN, said the success of Cop28 would be measured by whether it could “reach a consensus on the need to phase out fossil fuels”.
The text was produced by the UN climate body but the UAE is chairing the intergovernmental negotiations and trying to broker a deal.
“We have made progress, but we still have a lot to do . . . including on fossil fuel language,” Mr al-Jaber said after the draft was released.
He added that all the nations had decided to keep the focus on “our north star” of limiting temperatures to 1.5C degrees above pre-industrial levels.
The Emirati oil executive faced criticism a month before the summit for suggesting there was “no science” showing that fossil fuels had to be phased out to limit global warming.
He later claimed his remarks had been misinterpreted. There was further controversy after the BBC reported the UAE planned to use the event to discuss oil and gas deals with a dozen countries.
Burning fossil fuels is the biggest contributor to global warming and governments have never collectively agreed to stop using them before.
If a deal can be reached, it could be the first time the climate change conference has called for a shift away from all fossil fuels rather than just coal.
Negotiations are now expected to stretch on into the final scheduled day of the summit. Mr al-Jaber has set a deadline of 11am local time on Tuesday for a compromise to be reached.
“We have a text and we have to agree on it. The time for discussions is coming to an end and now is not the time to hesitate. It is time to decide,” he told the UN session.
At the Cop26 summit in Glasgow, a deal was reached but only after the meeting overran by two days. | {

DeSantis aides battle Byron Donalds over Florida education policy: ‘Did Kamala write this?’ | Aides inside Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ 2024 campaign traded barbs this week with Rep. Byron Donalds, the state’s only Black Republican in Congress, over Florida’s new educational standards for African American history.
The battle began when Donalds criticized a part of the curriculum that teaches Florida students that some slaves "developed skills from which they could personally benefit."
"The new African-American standards in FL are good, robust, & accurate. That being said, the attempt to feature the personal benefits of slavery is wrong & needs to be adjusted. That obviously wasn't the goal & I have faith that FLDOE will correct this," Donalds said on Wednesday.
DeSantis rapid response director Christina Pushaw replied to Donalds that evening asking, "Did Kamala Harris write this tweet?," a reference to opposition to the language on slavery from the White House.
The governor’s campaign press secretary Jeremy Redfern added, "Laundering a lie for the White House isn’t a good look."
"Supposed conservatives in the federal government are pushing the same false narrative that originated from the [White House]. Florida isn’t going to hide the truth for political convenience," Redfern said in a wider statement. "Maybe the congressman shouldn’t swing for the liberal media fences like [Harris]."
Donalds, who endorsed former President Trump for 2024, then pointed out that he praised most of the curriculum and accused DeSantis’s team of acting "desperately."
"What's crazy to me is I expressed support for the vast majority of the new African American history standards and happened to oppose one sentence that seemed to dignify the skills gained by slaves as a result of their enslavement," Donalds said.
"Anyone who can't accurately interpret what I said is disingenuous and is desperately attempting to score political points. Just another reason why l'm proud to have endorsed President Donald J. Trump!"
Pushaw and Redfern replied to Donalds’s tweet with gifs of Harris in various smiling poses.
Trump’s campaign also released a statement backing Donalds, lauding him as a "conservative hero."
"Congressman Byron Donalds is a conservative hero. The Republican Party is lucky to have him as a leader, and President Trump is honored to have his endorsement," Trump adviser Jason Miller said. "For the OFFICIAL office of the Governor, and (what’s left of) Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign to attempt to smear Congressman Donalds like this is a disgrace – and it’s indicative of why DeSantis has plummeted faster than any presidential candidate in history."
DeSantis’s aides attacked Miller in response, as Pushaw replied to his statement with a gif of Harris applauding. Redfern quipped, "Are they clapping because he finally paid his child support?" | {

Video shows burned out Mercedes after dad slammed car into toll booth | Horrifying footage captured the aftermath of a fiery crash that left a beloved New Hampshire father and charity volunteer dead.
Scott Defreitas, 52, tragically lost his life on Thursday after plowing his Mercedes into a toll booth barrier, causing the vehicle to explode into a fireball.
New Hampshire State Police said Defreitas was pulled from the wreck by several witnesses, but life-saving measures could not save him, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
A manager at manufacturing firm Hypotherm Associates, Defreitas was previously praised for his extensive charity work, including hosting monthly dinners for a local homeless shelter.
The horror crash unfolded around 3:15 pm on Thursday in Bedford, New Hampshire, after Defreitas collided with a toll on the Everett Turnpike.
It is unclear what caused the crash, with footage appearing to show no other vehicles were involved in the incident.
In video filmed by a witness, Defreitas' Mercedes SL 500 was seen engulfed in flames, which officials later said took three hours to extinguish.
A heavy law enforcement presence was on the scene as officials worked to process the incident and clear the roadway of debris, with later footage showing the vehicle's burned-out shell on the highway.
Witness Robert Webster told WMUR that the tragic incident was 'a shocker.'
'It was really scary,' he said. 'The gentleman was still on the ground when we were passing by, and the firefighters were trying to put out the blaze.'
Police say the crash remains under investigation and they are appealing for information from witnesses.
According to online records, Defreitas worked as a procurer and category manager for manufacturing firm Hypotherm Associates, and was praised in the company's 'social responsibility' promotion for his charity work.
He hosted monthly dinners for homeless shelter Haven Hixon House, and he noted in the promotion that 'nothing has made more of an impact to make me well-grounded than helping people.'
Officials sounded the alarm after the crash over the dangers posed at tollbooths, and cited Thursday's wreckage as the sixth at tollbooths in the state in the last three months.
In the past month, a Massachusetts man died after crashing into the Hampton Toll Plaza over Memorial Day weekend, and just days before another man was injured at the same location, reports Hoodline.
New Hampshire Department of Transport official Richard Arcand said that the incidents are a concerning trend, particularly as none were believed to be a 'snow event' or caused by weather.
'The roads are clear and dry and this is speed or inattentive driving or sometimes distracted or impaired driving, and it's very concerning,' he said. | {

Nordmenn i Libanon: – Vi er veldig bekymra | Det er stor usikkerheit i Libanon og utanriksdepartementet (UD) har oppmoda nordmenn om å forlate landet.
– Vi understrekar no rådet om å forlate Libanon. Det er den tydelegaste oppmodinga UD kan gje, seier utanriksminister Espen Barth Eide.
Faren for krig er stor etter at Fuad Shukr, den militære leiaren av Hizbollah, vart drepen i eit israelsk åtak førre veke.
– Vårt svar kjem, med Guds vilje, enten åleine eller med aksen.
Hassan Nasrallah, Hizbollah-leiaren har lova hemn.
Om lag 100 nordmenn oppheld seg i Libanon, ifølgje UD.
Les også Eskalering mellom Israel og Hizbollah: Angrep i Libanon
Opplevde israelsk åtak på nært hald
Louai Mansour og familien, sit fast i landet.
Dei oppheldt seg eigentleg i Sør-Libanon, men har no flytta seg til nord.
Det same har fleire tusen israelarar i Nord-Israel og libanesarar i Sør-Libanon.
– Hadde det berre vore meg og kona kunne det gått fint, men vi har fem born med oss. Vi er veldig bekymra.
Familien var i Beirut under åtaket der Shukr vert drepen førre veke. Dei høyrde eksplosjonen og såg røyken stige opp på veg til nord.
– Vi hadde forklart borna at det kunne bli krig, så dei vart redde.
Både han og kona er palestinarar, men fødd i Libanon.
Eigentleg skulle dei kome heim tidleg i august, men flya har vorte flytta fleire gonger.
– Borna leikar, men vi vaksne prøver å fikse billettar for å kome oss ut.
No har dei billettar til 25. august, og dei vonar å få lov til å gå om bord på flyet då.
Vil ikkje reise frå mannen
Inger Løkke er ein av nordmennene som er i landet. Ho har budd i Nord-Libanon sidan ho gifta seg med ektemannen Fadi Jabbour i 2022.
– Det er roleg her vi bur.
Løkke er svært prega når NRK pratar med ho, dei er bekymra for kva som kjem fortel ho.
Dei tenker spesielt på svogeren og svigerinna som bur i Beirut. Dei har sagt at de må kome seg til nord om dei har moglegheit.
Mannen hennar får ikkje kome til Noreg. Ho vil ikkje forlate han åleine i Libanon.
Dei driv ein butikk som har fått namnet «vasspipe», der dei sel vasspipe, iskrem og tobakk.
– Viss det hadde vorte krig her no, så hadde alt det vorte øydelagt.
Situasjonen i landet er ustabil
Mohamed Hamadi bur i Sør-Libanon saman med kona si.
Hamadi er fødd i Libanon, men han har budd fleire år i Noreg.
Han synest utviklinga i landet dei siste åra er leit.
– Libanon gjekk frå å vere veldig trygt til å ikkje vere så trygt lenger.
Dei siste vekene er situasjonen i landet er ustabil, fortel han.
Han har planar om å reise heim, men fortel at det er kaos på flyplassen.
No ventar han for å sjå om det vert lettare å kome seg ut.
– Nord-Israel flyttar mange innbyggjarar til andre byar. Og det same gjer Sør-Libanon.
Dette bekymrar Hamadi, sjølv om han ikkje trur at nokon av partane er interesserte i ein storkrig.
I Noreg har han to born som ringer stadig for å høyre korleis det går. | {

Donald Tusk elected as Polish prime minister | The former president of the European Council will take up the role on Wednesday
Donald Tusk has been elected as Poland’s next prime minister after the government lost a vote of confidence, bringing an end to the conservative Law and Justice party’s eight years in power.
The government lost the vote by 266 to 190, and a few hours later parliament voted to nominate Mr Tusk as the next head of government.
Tusk’s liberal Civil Coalition will be joined by the conservative Third Way party and the New Left.
As supporters chanted his name in the lower house of parliament, a jubilant Mr Tusk said: “Thank you Poland. This really is a great day, not just for me but for all those who hoped things will get better.”
However, in an indication that Poland’s bitter political divisions will remain, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the Law and Justice leader, took the microphone immediately afterwards to call his rival a “German agent”.
Rebuilding EU relations
Mr Tusk, who previously served as prime minister from 2007 to 2014, has pledged to “restore the rule of law” in Poland after years of government intervention in the courts.
A keen supporter of the EU and a former president of the European Council from 2014-19, Mr Tusk said that rebuilding Poland’s relations with the EU was a priority.
He is expected to present his nascent government’s programme in a parliamentary speech on Tuesday after which another vote of confidence will be held.
Andrzej Duda, the Polish president, will then swear in the 66-year-old politician and his cabinet on Wednesday.
The demise of the Law and Justice government came as little surprise given that it was living on borrowed time since Mr Duda swore it in on Nov 27.
Mateusz Morawiecki, the Law and Justice prime minister, entered the Polish parliament on Monday morning knowing that he had little chance of winning a vote in a lower house dominated, since October’s general election, by a united opposition determined to unseat his government.
Even though Law and Justice remains the biggest party in parliament, it lost its majority in the election. With no other party willing to work with it, its minority government was doomed to fail.
The end of Law and Justice rule could bring a sea change in Polish politics. The party, which critics labelled as populist, faced accusations that it had undermined the rule of law by chipping away at the foundations of Polish democracy.
Law and Justice also had a truculent relationship with the EU, clashing with Brussels on several occasions, leading to fears that Poland may follow the UK and leave the union.
At the same time the party presided over a period of strong economic growth and remained popular with many voters as it rolled out popular social welfare programmes. | {

Ünye'de otizmli çocuklarla etkinlik düzenlendi - Ordu Haberleri | Ünye Şehit Eren Bülbül Özel Eğitim Anaokulu tarafından 2 Nisan Dünya Otizm Farkındalık Günü etkinliği düzenledi.
Ünye Şehit Eren Bülbül Özel Eğitim Anaokulu tarafından 2 Nisan Dünya Otizm Farkındalık Günü etkinliği düzenledi.
Okulun bahçesinde düzenlenen etkinlikte öğretmenler, öğrenciler ve velileri birlikte oyunlar oynadı.
Etkinliklerin ardından "Otizmi fark et dedik, fark ettiniz. Kabul et dedik, kabul ettiniz. Tüm bunlar için teşekkür ederiz. Artık empati kurmaya davetlisiniz." yazılı pankartın önünde meşaleler yakıldı.
Etkinlik, Ünye İlçe Jandarma Komutanlığı ekiplerine ait 4 araçla çocuklara şehir turu attırılmasının ardından sona erdi.
Anaokulu Müdürü Melek Ergöz, AA muhabirine, 3-6 yaş okul öncesi 35 engelli öğrenciye hizmet verdiklerini, bunlardan 20'ye yakınının otizmli olduğunu söyledi.
Dünya Otizm Günü dolayısıyla farkındalık oluşturmak adına bu etkinliği düzenlediklerini ifade eden Ergöz, şunları kaydetti:
"İsteğimiz halkımızın bilinçlenmesi, otizmlilerin farkına varılması, hoşgörülü olması, onlarla empati kurup hayatlarını olabildiğince kolaylaştırması. Otizmin farkına varmak hem eğitim camiasına hem de ailelere çok önemli mesaj veriyor. Unutulmamalıdır ki her insan bir engelli adayıdır. Aynı şekilde tohum toprağa, engelli bireyler de topluma emanettir. Hem engelli adayı olduğumuzu unutmayacağız hem de engelli bireylerin topluma emanet olduklarını bilerek emanetlerimize sahip çıkacağız."

Supreme Court reinstates major gas pipeline in blow to environmental groups | The Supreme Court struck down a lower court ruling from earlier this month that blocked construction of the 303-mile Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) from proceeding.
In a short, unsigned order issued Thursday morning, the Supreme Court vacated the July 10 stay orders from the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, in which the lower court sided with plaintiffs — environmental groups Wilderness Society and Appalachian Voices, which had sued to stop the pipeline construction. The 4th Circuit ruling was opposed by the Biden administration, bipartisan lawmakers and the fossil fuel industry.
"Whatever benefit respondents or the court of appeals might believe would be gained by having the agencies again reconsider the challenged actions, Congress has determined that further reconsideration is unwarranted and has prioritized MVP’s 'timely' completion over interests addressed by any other federal statutes," the Department of Justice wrote in an amicus brief to the Supreme Court last week.
"That judgment is for Congress alone," the brief continued.
The Department of Justice brief was one of numerous briefs filed in the case. Opponents of the 4th Circuit ruling pointed to the Fiscal Responsibility Act, the recent bipartisan debt limit bill President Biden signed in early June, which green-lit all permits for the MVP project.
The debt limit bill also shifted judicial review jurisdiction from the 4th Circuit, which has a lengthy track record of siding with environmental groups, to the U.S. District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals.
Days after the lower court ruling, on July 14, the pipeline's developer asked the Supreme Court to vacate the stay. The high court gave plaintiffs until Tuesday to file a response.
"The Fourth Circuit judges are not supreme rulers and lawful orders issued by the legislative and executive branches must be followed," GOP Chief Deputy Whip Guy Reschenthaler, R-Pa., told Fox News Digital on July 19. "Congress was well within its power to restart the Mountain Valley Pipeline construction and usher in a new era of energy independence for the region."
"Instead of halting the pipeline, I urge the Supreme Court to plug up the ludicrous activism seeping out of the lower court so American families can enjoy lower energy costs, substantial land royalties, and most importantly – law and order in America," he added.
Reschenthaler led a group of seven fellow representatives and Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va, in filing a brief in support of the MVP project's permits.
Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., who played a role in securing the pipeline in the Fiscal Responsibility Act, filed his own amicus brief in the case on July 18.
"The Supreme Court has spoken and this decision to let construction of the Mountain Valley Pipeline move forward again is the correct one. I am relieved that the highest court in the land has upheld the law Congress passed and the President signed," Manchin said in a statement Thursday.
The Laborers' International Union of North America, a large labor union; GOP West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice; American Gas Association; American Petroleum Institute; Chamber of Commerce; and counsel for the U.S. House of Representatives all filed briefs in support of the pipeline.
According to Equitrans Midstream, the pipeline's developer, MVP will transport about 2 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from West Virginia to consumers in the Mid-Atlantic and South Atlantic. The pipeline is projected to generate $40 million in new tax revenue for West Virginia, $10 million in new tax revenue for Virginia and up to $250 million in royalties for West Virginia landowners. | {

"The Supreme Court struck down a lower court ruling from earlier this month that blocked construction of the 303-mile Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) from proceeding.",
"In a short, unsigned order issued Thursday morning, the Supreme Court vacated the July 10 stay orders from the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, in which the lower court sided with plaintiffs — environmental groups Wilderness Society and Appalachian Voices, which had sued to stop the pipeline construction. The 4th Circuit ruling was opposed by the Biden administration, bipartisan lawmakers and the fossil fuel industry.",
"\"Whatever benefit respondents or the court of appeals might believe would be gained by having the agencies again reconsider the challenged actions, Congress has determined that further reconsideration is unwarranted and has prioritized MVP’s 'timely' completion over interests addressed by any other federal statutes,\" the Department of Justice wrote in an amicus brief to the Supreme Court last week.",
"\"That judgment is for Congress alone,\" the brief continued.",
"The Department of Justice brief was one of numerous briefs filed in the case. Opponents of the 4th Circuit ruling pointed to the Fiscal Responsibility Act, the recent bipartisan debt limit bill President Biden signed in early June, which green-lit all permits for the MVP project.",
"The debt limit bill also shifted judicial review jurisdiction from the 4th Circuit, which has a lengthy track record of siding with environmental groups, to the U.S. District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals.",
"Days after the lower court ruling, on July 14, the pipeline's developer asked the Supreme Court to vacate the stay. The high court gave plaintiffs until Tuesday to file a response.",
"\"The Fourth Circuit judges are not supreme rulers and lawful orders issued by the legislative and executive branches must be followed,\" GOP Chief Deputy Whip Guy Reschenthaler, R-Pa., told Fox News Digital on July 19. \"Congress was well within its power to restart the Mountain Valley Pipeline construction and usher in a new era of energy independence for the region.\"",

Trump adviser hits at DeSantis: 2024 'is dead for him' | An adviser to the presidential campaign of former President Donald Trump took shots at challenger Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday.
"Ron DeSantis needs to look in the mirror and recognize that at his current trajectory, it's not just 2024 that is dead for him, but 2028 as well," Jason Miller told the Washington Examiner in a statement on Thursday.
Miller said the fellow Republican's "continued misguided attacks are only helping Joe Biden and that if his goal is to help the current president, he "should just get out of the race."
His comments came during a tumultuous week for DeSantis, who cut more campaign staff this week as part of a push to "streamline operations."
"Following a top-to-bottom review of our organization, we have taken additional, aggressive steps to streamline operations and put Ron DeSantis in the strongest position to win this primary and defeat Joe Biden," DeSantis campaign manager Generra Peck said in a statement.
The news comes two days after the campaign told top financial contributors that a "reset" was underway.
The officials acknowledged Sunday during a meeting with leading campaign donors and bundlers that they spent too much money in the two months since DeSantis launched his White House bid, sources with knowledge of the gathering confirmed to Fox News.
The DeSantis campaign did not respond to Fox News' requests for comment.
Trump and DeSantis have traded blows in recent weeks, trying to undercut each other on key issues.
In June, Trump suggested that his attacks against DeSantis are personal, telling Fox News' Bret Baier that he finds it "very disloyal" that DeSantis joined the 2024 presidential race after he helped him get elected in Florida.
"I’m a big loyalist," he said. "Some people right here in this room tell me, ‘Sir, don’t worry about loyalty, it doesn’t mean anything in politics.’ I said, to me it does. I got the guy elected."
DeSantis said last weekend on Fox News Channel’s "Media Buzz" that he'd rather attack the candidate on the issues, listing what he said were broken 2016 campaign promises by Trump.
"I have no interest in attacking Donald Trump or any of these other candidates personally. I think we’ve got to rise above that and let's focus on the issues," he said. | {

Netanyahu fighting on two fronts – in Gaza and for his own survival | As the war against Hamas rages on into a third month, Israel’s prime minister faces the anger of citizens whose lives will never be the same
Benjamin Netanyahu has a residence on a leafy street of Jerusalem, near a sushi restaurant, wine bar and bomb shelter.
But as the war against Hamas rages on into a third month, Israel’s prime minister is rarely at home: instead, he splits his time between the Knesset and the Hakirya, or “Campus”, an area in Tel Aviv where the military is headquartered.
Bibi – a childhood nickname he has not shaken off – has won six elections. As the country’s longest-serving prime minister, he has held the post for a total of 16 years, with ambitions to continue for longer.
In all his time as Israel’s leader, Mr Netanyahu, 74, has never wielded more power. It is he, a former special forces soldier himself, who will decide how hard Israel pushes the next phase of its war into Gaza. It is he who will make the call to end the operation. And, if he survives long enough in the post, he will decide what “the day after” the war will look like.
“He’s in control,” says Richard Pater, director of the Britain Israel Communications and Research Centre. He knows “the worst thing you can do in politics is to take your hands off the wheel.”
So far, Israel claims it has killed a total of 5,000 Hamas fighters out of the group’s armed wing of 30,000-strong. But the senior leaders of the Oct 7 operation remain alive.
Meanwhile, global pressure is rising over the Palestinian death toll, now at a staggering 18,000, according to the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza.
How far, exactly, Mr Netanyahu will heed growing overtures from Britain and America, its closest ally, to spare civilian lives depends in part on the temperature of national politics.
Before the war broke out, Mr Netanyahu was already on the back foot, becoming prime minister again thanks to a deal with Israel’s hard-Right, making for a fractious coalition.
He was – and still is – embroiled in a years-long corruption trial.
Hundreds of thousands of people earlier this year took to the streets to protest against a judicial overhaul many felt gave the government too much power over the country’s supreme court.
‘It happened on his watch’
When Hamas terrorists stormed across the border on Oct 7, killing 1,200 people and capturing 240 hostages, many blamed dysfunction in Mr Netanyahu’s government for the security lapse.
“It’s both searing disappointment that he allowed this to happen, and that it happened on his watch,” said Dahlia Scheindlin, a political strategist and public opinion expert at the Century Foundation, a think tank in Tel Aviv. “He has the responsibility of being the leader when this happened.”
War-time leaders often benefit from the public rallying behind the flag. There remains much scepticism about Mr Netanyahu, but many citizens appear willing to put their feelings aside until the heaviest of the fighting is over.
“He needs to continue, to make Hamas disappear,” said Avram Levy, 73, a fruit vendor at a central market in Jerusalem.
“If there is one Hamas guy, without legs and without a right arm, but with his left hand makes a victory sign – we lost.”
Mr Netanyahu has “got the temper of a strong leader,” said Mr Levy, whose son, 42, is fighting in the war. “He doesn’t break.”
Above all, many Israelis feel another attack like Oct 7 must be prevented.
Eighty-seven per cent of Jewish Israelis said they supported resumed fighting after the recent ceasefire, according to a survey released last week by the Israel Democracy Institute.
On Nov 18, hostage families arrived at the gates of Mr Netanyahu’s office in Jerusalem after a march from Tel Aviv to demand he take more action to bring their loved ones home.
His relationship with these citizens, the most intensely vulnerable in the nation, has been rocky.
Their demands for prioritising the fate of their family members over flattening Gaza, are not as easy to discount as external calls for restraint.
‘I wanted him gone before; now I want him gone more’
Many of those taken and slaughtered that day in October came from Left-wing kibbutzim that were already profoundly opposed to Mr Netanyahu’s rule.
“I wanted him gone before; now I want him gone even more,” said Ayelet Hakim, 55, a resident of kibbutz Be’eri, where more than 100 people were slaughtered on Oct 7.
That day, she spent 17 hours with her husband and two children, 4 and 11, hiding in their safe room as attackers surrounded their house. She sent what she thought would be her last-ever text messages to her 29-year-old son, reminding him to take care of himself.
While the family survived, her sister, Raz Ben-Ami, 57, was taken by Hamas.
She was released in the recent hostage exchange after being held for 54 days. But her husband, Ohad Ben-Ami, is among the 137 hostages who remain in captivity.
Upon Raz’s release, she immediately began campaigning fiercely for the freedom of her husband.
But she has been so enraged by lack of government action that she walked out of a group meeting between hostage families and Mr Netanyahu last Wednesday, recounted Ms Hakim.
Mr Netanyahu should “should give the keys to somebody else, and let somebody else handle this,” Ms Hakim said from a hotel in Ein Bokek, a Dead Sea resort town where Be’eri residents have lived since the attack.
Once the hostages are freed, many of the victims of Hamas’s atrocities in the kibbutzim agree with Mr Netanyahu’s over-arching desire to rewrite the entire nature of the Gaza Strip.
Ms Hakim admits that there may be no other way forward, but to engage in war.
“I think that Palestinians and me, [we] are the same now; we are both not safe,” she said. “Our lives will be better if there will be no Hamas – that’s what I want.
“Hamas is a terrorist group that should be eliminated,” she said. “I want Hamas to be gone from this world, and then the Palestinians can live safely in Gaza the way I want to live safely in Be’eri.”
Miriam Gad-Messika, 45, also a Be’eri resident, said she’d feel safe once the Israeli military “will finish what it started – that we see the sea, the shore,” referring to the coastline along Gaza – a view from her home blocked by the Strip. “Maybe there will be no Gaza anymore.”
“The Palestinians have many countries that can embrace them,” she said. “Israel is so small, that if they don’t want to live with us, if they don’t want to be at peace with us – so, go! They don’t need to be here.”
In Gaza today, many Palestinians are finding they have nowhere to go. The war has displaced around 80 per cent of the population, according to the United Nations.
Deafening bombs now fall across major cities across Gaza, many targeting the south, after the first phase of the operation levelled much of the north.
Rubble, dirt and dust are all that’s left of what used to be bakeries and homes. Dried blood cakes the floors of abandoned hospitals, as described by residents to The Telegraph.
Food, fuel and water are scarce; disease is running rampant, humanitarian organisations have warned. Scores of people have been buried in mass graves.
‘I try to avoid looking in the eyes of my kids’
“I try to avoid looking in the eyes of my kids,” says Sami Abu Salem, 52, a father of four, in central Gaza, who has been forced to sleep outside on some nights without any shelter.
“They look at me with strong eyes. I feel that they are telling me, ‘please do something for us, we are feeling cold, we are hungry’.”
Like Mr Abu Salem, Umm Osama Haneya, a mother of three, has moved several times since the war broke out, ending up now in the southern city of Khan Younis, where Israel is now involved in heavy door-to-door fighting against Hamas.
“It’s not safe to move around,” Ms Haneya, 34, told The Telegraph. “My three-year-old daughter trembles when there are airstrikes.”
The Israeli military has issued evacuation orders instructing Ms Haneya and others to move further south to Rafah, a city that straddles the border between Gaza and Egypt.
But without relatives or friends there, she is hesitant.
The ideal option would be to journey home to northern Gaza – an impossibility as war blazes on.
“During the truce, I tried to find out if my house in the north was still standing,” she said. “But I simply couldn’t get any information.”
Her family also can’t afford the 1,000 Israeli shekels (£215) needed to buy a tent, though that would offer no protection against bombs, and little against winter temperatures falling to 10C at night.
“I am trapped,” says Ms Haneya.
If Mr Netanyahu is thinking about what to do the ‘day after’ the war, Israeli voters are also weighing up what to do with him.
Boaz Tzidkiyahu, the owner of a popular eponymous deli in Jerusalem, lost faith in Netanyahu after Oct 7. “I am not supporting him anymore, because of the colossal mess of the war,” the 62-year-old said surrounded by an array of olives and pickles. | {

6 astuces pour donner un médicament à son chat | Il arrive parfois que nos félins tombent malades. Dans ce cas, il est parfois nécessaire de leur donner des médicaments. Comment faire alors que l’animal se débat ou rechigne à avaler le traitement ? Nos astuces.
Le chat de la famille est malade mais rien ne peut le convaincre d’avaler docilement la pilule prescrite par le vétérinaire. Voici 6 astuces pour y parvenir.
Cacher le médicament dans la nourriture
Technique bien connue, mais pas toujours efficace, le maître peut cacher un médicament dans la nourriture. Le médicament est broyé à l'aide d'un mortier et mélangé à une petite quantité de sa pâtée préférée. Il faut veiller à ne pas mettre une trop grande quantité de nourriture et surveiller la bonne ingestion du médicament. Cependant, il n'est pas rare que nos amis à quatre pattes détectent une odeur ou un goût différent et boudent indéfiniment la pâtée.
Placer le médicament au fond de la gorge de votre chat
Selon le caractère de votre chat, il est parfois possible de mettre le médicament au fond de sa gorge. Ensuite, quelques gouttes d'eau suffisent pour qu'il avale le médicament. Quand le chat est docile, cette opération est simple. Il suffit de saisir le chat contre soi fermement et de lui ouvrir la gueule avec soin. Tenez sa tête par sa mâchoire supérieure puis baissez sa mâchoire inférieure avec l’autre main. Ensuite, visez le fond de la gorge. Puis trempez vos doigts dans de l'eau et laissez tomber quelques gouttes dans la gueule du chat. Il avalera par réflexe, le tour est joué.
Administrer le médicament avec une pipette
Dans le cas où votre chat refuse le comprimé, le médicament peut être donné à l'aide d'une pipette. Une fois que le médicament est broyé, mélangez-le à de l'eau en quantité suffisante pour le mélange soit liquide. Ensuite, insérez la pipette dans la gueule de votre animal.
Écraser le médicament dans l'eau
Cette méthode peut être utilisée, mais il est parfois difficile de savoir si votre animal a vraiment pris son médicament. En effet, l'eau peut être laissée à l'abandon et le médicament se dissoudre sans que votre animal ait ingéré l'intégralité du traitement.
Utiliser un lance pilule
Le lance-pilule est spécifiquement conçu pour envoyer le médicament au fond de la gorge du chat avec un peu d'eau. En premier lieu, il faut mettre de l'eau dans le lance pilule, qui ressemble à une grosse seringue. Puis placez le médicament devant la sortie du lance-pilule. Positionnez l’outil dans la gorge du chat et appuyez pour libérer le médicament et l'eau à la suite. Le résultat est généralement efficace.
Cacher le médicament
Les friandises peuvent également être un outil efficace pour permettre l'ingestion de médicament à votre chat. Pour ce faire, vous pouvez dissimuler le médicament dans des friandises. C'est notamment facile avec les bâtonnets à mâcher. Pour les friandises sous forme de chewing-gum, le processus est le même. Coupez la friandise en deux et glissez le médicament au milieu. Refermez, votre chat n'y verra que du feu. | {

Documental "Going Clear" une voces contra la Cienciología | NUEVA YORK (AP) — Mike Rinder había pasado prácticamente toda su vida en la Iglesia de la Cienciología. Desde los 6 años fue criado bajo esa fe, y a la larga ascendió hasta convertirse en su principal vocero. Todos los que conocía pertenecían a esa religión, incluidos su esposa, sus dos hijos y otros familiares.
Pero tras pasar más de un año en una instalación disciplinaria conocida como “el hoyo”, donde Rinder señala que fue confinado junto a otros ejecutivos de la Cienciología, desilusionado dejó la Iglesia en 2007. Fue durante su estancia en ese complejo de Los Ángeles que Rinder, ahora de 59 años, dijo que se dio cuenta de que su Iglesia era “un camino al infierno” y que tenía que salirse, incluso si lo hacía sin un centavo y sin su familia.
“Literalmente salí de ahí con un portafolios”, dice Rinder, que ahora vive lo que describe como “una vida completamente nueva” en Florida con una nueva esposa, un hijo y un hijastro. “Un portafolios sin nada en su interior, sólo el portafolios”.
La historia de Rinder es una de las ocho contadas por ex miembros de esa fe que conforman la trama emocional del documental “Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief” (“Las cosas en claro: la Cienciología y la cárcel de la fe”), que se estrena en cines el viernes y será transmitido por la cadena HBO el 29 de marzo.
Dirigido por Alex Gibney, director de documentales ganador del Oscar, y basado en el aclamado libro del periodista Lawrence Wright, ganador del Pulitzer, hasta ahora el filme es la mayor revelación sobre los mecanismos internos de la controversial religión fundada por el escritor de ciencia ficción L. Ron Hubbard.
Fundamentado sustancialmente en los testimonios de ex miembros de la congregación como Rinder, la cinta pinta un perturbador retrato de la Cienciología, al afirmar que en su interior los abusos físicos suceden en forma regular, que la Iglesia provoca conflictos familiares al etiquetar a padres o cónyuges no creyentes como “personas supresoras”, y que el Servicio de Rentas Internas la nombró religión libre de impuestos en 1993 únicamente debido a una avalancha de demandas. El documental también critica a varios de los rostros más famosos de la Cienciología —incluidos los actores Tom Cruise y John Travolta— por no utilizar su influencia para cambiar a la organización.
La Iglesia, que declinó solicitudes de entrevistas para el documental, ha montado una campaña de gran envergadura contra el filme, incluidos anuncios a página completa en los periódicos The New York Times y Los Angeles Times y una serie de videos en internet. En respuesta a una solicitud de entrevista para este despacho, la Iglesia refirió a los videos difundidos por la revista Freedom Magazine, publicada por la congregación.
En esas difusiones y algunas otras, las fuentes que utiliza el documental son catalogadas como “apóstatas amargados y vengativos”. La Iglesia alega que Gibney no les presentó los alegatos del documental para que ellos dieran una respuesta y llaman a la película “una diatriba falsa y parcial”. Representantes de la Iglesia se reunieron con Wright, pero describieron su libro como “algo tan ridículo que pertenece a un tabloide de supermercado”.
“Sus fuentes son la usual colección de ex miembros de la Iglesia obsesivos y disgustados que fueron expulsados incluso hace 30 años por mala conducta, que tienen una historia documentada de inventar mentiras sobre la Iglesia para obtener dinero”, comentaron por medio de un comunicado.
La Iglesia también ha rechazado vigorosamente las acusaciones de abuso físico o aislamiento. Ha dicho anteriormente que los administradores como Rinder nunca fueron retenidos contra su voluntad, pero fueron sujetos a “disciplina eclesiástica”.

OL i Paris 2024: Håndballherrene ute av OL | De norske håndballherrene hadde tidenes mulighet til å nå en OL-semifinale da de møtte Slovenia. Slik gikk det ikke.
Norge tapte nemlig 33-28, i en kamp der Norge havnet bakpå tidlig.
Og i kvartfinalen var det én forskjell som ble særlig tydelig: Keeperspillet i den første omgangen.
– Vi har jo ingen redninger! sa Max-ekspert Marit Malm Frafjord i pausen.
Da lå Norge allerede under med fire mål mot Slovenia – et lag det på forhånd var ventet at Norge skulle ha gode muligheter til å slå.
De norske målvaktene hadde bare reddet tre skudd i løpet av hele omgangen. Keeperspillet fremsto som den største forskjellen mellom de to lagene.
– Vi kom bakpå i førsteomgang. Det er bare nesten hele tiden, oppsummerer Norge-trener Jonas Wille til Max etter kampslutt.
Keeperne slet
For mens de norske keeperne slet i starten av kampen, sto slovenske Klemen Ferlin svært godt i den andre enden av banen.
Kampen startet helt jevnt der de to lagene fulgte hverandre tett. Men midtveis i omgangen fikk Slovenia et forsprang og tok ledelsen 9–6.
Norge slet med å stanse slovenerne, og for en gangs skyld var det få redninger fra de norske keeperne.
Både Torbjørn Bergerud og Kristian Sæveraas har reddet omkring 30 prosent av ballene så langt i OL-turneringen.
Mot Slovenia startet Norge med Bergerud mellom stengene, men Sæveraas ble byttet inn. Han reddet en stor sjanse like etterpå, men det ble også hans eneste redning i kampen.
Noen minutter senere ble Bergerud satt inn i målet igjen.
Trener Jonas Wille tok timeout, men Norge klarte ikke å ta tilbake initiativet. Noen minutter senere økte slovenerne ledelsen til fire mål slik at det sto 16–12 til pause.
Halet innpå
I andre omgang startet det jevnt, men så begynte Norge å krype innpå. Og det skjedde da keeper Torbjørn Bergeruds spill tok seg opp.
I den andre omgangen reddet han sju baller slik at redningsprosenten økte til 25.
Et av skuddene reddet han med ansiktet på en slovensk straffe. Det endte med at den slovenske spilleren fikk rødt kort.
På et tidspunkt så det ut til at Norge skulle ta igjen ledelsen til slovenerne, men det ble aldri skikkelig spennende.
Norge fortsatte å rote bort ballen, og fikk også en dommeravgjørelse mot seg da kampen vippet. Dermed beholdt Slovenia initiativet, og styrte kampen inn til seier med fem mål.
– Jeg synes Norge kommer med for lite fremover, vi har for lite å by på i angrepsspillet. Det blir stoppet dødelig effektivt, sier NRK-ekspert Håvard Tvedten.
– Det er trist sorti for de norske gutta.
I semifinalen venter Danmark for Slovenia, etter at danskene slo Sverige i en jevn kamp tidligere onsdag. | {

Maya Jama showcases her figure in fishnet dress at Rimmel London event | Maya Jama looked radiant as ever as she celebrated the launch of Rimmel London's new Lasting Finish 35 Hour Foundation at Boots in Covent Garden on Thursday.
The Love Island presenter, 28, who is the face of the cosmetics brand, cut a stylish figure as she posed with shoppers at the event.
The TV host donned a sheer fishnet long-sleeved dress for the occasion which she wore over a skintight black underdress.
Adding height to her frame with a pair of black leather boots, Maya styled her locks into voluminous curls.
The star accentuated her natural beauty with a light palette of makeup as she posed for the camera.
It was first reported in January that Maya had taken over as the new face of Rimmel London, following in the footsteps of Kate Moss.
The presenter was said to have signed a multi-million pound deal to replace the 49-year-old supermodel, who has been the role for almost 20 years.
Maya took over as Love Island presenter from Laura Whitmore, 38, earlier this year and has previously hosted BBC makeup series Glow Up, Walk the Line and Crouchy's Year-Late Euros: Live.
She has made a name for herself following a highly-publicised breakup from rapper Stormzy, 28, who Maya dated from 2014 until 2019.
Currently single, Maya ended her engagement to Australian basketball player Ben Simmons, who is an ex of Kendall Jenner's.
She spoke publicly about their split for the first time on Love Island spin-off show Aftersun.
Talking about engagements, she warned: 'I mean I've had a go… and just don't do it.'
At the start of the current Love Island series, Maya said she planned on wearing her sexiest outfits yet, and she has not left viewers disappointed.
With the help of stylist Rhea Francois, Maya wore a cutout dress previously used by Jennifer Lopez and has been seen in several eye-catching outfits.
Despite her fame reaching new heights, she continues to stay grounded, saying the online trolling surrounding Love Island often her brings her back down to reality.
Maya referenced one tweet from a viewer who commented on her 'natural teeth', saying they admired that she had not got them 'fixed.'
She told Vogue: 'I always thought my teeth were all right, never blinked an eye, and then I read a tweet saying, "I really love that Maya's kept her natural teeth and not fixed them".' | {

Narkokartellene truer verdens største regnskog | Kokainplantasjer spiser stadig mer av regnskogen i Amazonas. Det er kritisk for både natur og urfolk, mener Regnskogsfondet.
I et av verdens frodigste områder gror en stadig større og farligere produksjon frem, og truer noen av de mest sårbare områdene i Amazonas.
I en ny rapport fra International Crisis Group (ICG) fra tidligere i sommer, advares det om irreversible skader for natur og urfolk, som følge av kokainproduksjon.
– Informasjonen bekrefter varslene vi får fra våre partnere i området, sier Ines Luna Maira, områdeleder i Regnskogsfondet.
Tidligere har flere varslet om dette problemet, blant annet nettstedet InsightCrime, en ledende tenketank innen organisert kriminalitet i kontinentet.
Området blir kalt trippelgrensa, og er der Colombia, Peru og Brasil grenser til hverandre.
Det er hjem for flere urfolk som lever på tvers av landegrensene. Men det er også her et av verdens to største kokainprodusenter, Colombia og Peru, grenser til latinamerikas største marked for kokain, Brasil.
Fra lovlige blader, til ulovlig kokain
Når narkokartellene skal produsere kokain, trenger de kokablader, og for å dyrke kokablader trengs det plass og massiv hogst.
Kokainproduksjonen er krevende, og det krever blant annet stor arbeidskapasitet å håndplukke de alkalinrike kokabladene.
Alt dette finner de kriminelle på trippelgrensa, ifølge InsightCrime.
Det avsidesliggende området ligger langt unna myndighetenes kontroll, noe som utnyttes av kriminelle innen kokainproduksjon, ulovlig gruvedrift og tømmerhogst.
Spiser av den best bevarte naturen
– Kriminelle grupper sprer seg i noen av de best bevarte områdene i Amazonas, sier Ines Maira, i Regnskogsfondet.
Bare på peruansk side av grensa har avskogingen som følge av kokaplantasjer doblet seg mellom 2019-2023, fra 5.000 til 12.491 hektar, ifølge tall fra Den peruanske kommisjonen for bekjempelse av rusavhengighet (DEVIDA).
Det er ikke bare skog som raseres når narkobaronene får kontroll på området.
– Det bor utallige urfolksgrupper i trippelgrensa, og mange av disse velger å leve uten kontakt med omverdenen, sier Luna Maira.
Hun mener urfolk er de naturlige beskytterne av regnskogen.
Når de kriminelle tvinger dem ut av sitt levesett, hemmer det også arbeidet med bevaring av Amazonas-regnskogen.
– Taper i kampen mot «narkos»
I InsightCrime sin artikkel pekes det på manglende kontroll som hovedårsak til at kriminelle får herje i trippelgrensa.
Det bekrefter den tidligere sjefen for narkopolitiet i Peru til NRK.
– Vi har dessverre ikke ressurser til å være til stede der. Det blir korte raider og razziaer, sa Jose Ludeña da.
De kriminelle som har etablert seg i området er blant regionens største og mektigste, ifølge InsightCrime.
Blant annet de brasilianske mafiaene «Comando Vermelho» og «Primeiro Comando da Capita», som kjemper om kontrollen på forsyningene til Brasil. Herfra sendes narkotikaen videre til Europa, hvor fortjenesten er størst.
Produksjonen på peruansk og colombiansk side styres av Carolina Ramirez-Fronten, en tidligere fraksjon av FARC-geriljaen som beholder kontrollen på produksjonen i området.
Trippelgrensa blir dermed et viktig møtested for de kriminelle, noe som har gjort området til et av de voldeligste i Latin-Amerika.
NRK har tidligere skrevet om en urfolksekspert og en britisk journalist som ble drept i området.
Ludeña forteller at mange lokale velger å jobbe for narkokartellene siden de ikke har andre lovlige alternativer.
– Hva ville du gjort om noen tilbød deg mer penger for å dyrke kokablader enn kakao, spør Ludeña retorisk.
For å hanskes med sikkerhetsproblemet foreslår han mer samarbeid med de andre amazonas-landene, og mer støtte fra europeiske land.
– Europeiske land har også et ansvar, siden etterspørselen etter kokain øker mest der, sier Ludeña.
Bjelland Eriksen: – Stort voksende problem
Norge og amazonas-landene har signert avtaler om reduksjon av avskoging, gjennom det norske skogsinitiativet, NICFT.
Situasjonen i trippelgrensa er både kjent og bekymringsfull for Klima- og miljøministeren Andreas Bjelland Eriksen:
– Dette truer urfolk og lokalsamfunn, og hindrer våre samarbeidsland i å nå sine klima- og miljøambisjoner.
Han legger til at Norge allerede samarbeider med Interpol og FNs kontor for narkotika og kriminalitet, nettopp for å bekjempe miljøkriminalitet som vi ser på trippelgrensa.
– Miljøkriminalitet som ulovlig hogst, gruvedrift og fiske bidrar til avskoging i Amazonas og vil sannsynligvis være et viktig tema under COP 16 i Colombia senere i år, sier Bjelland Eriksen. | {

Motherhood hits home for Kelly Clarkson, in life and music | NEW YORK (AP) — Giving birth to her first child — and watching her husband tend to their daughter — made Kelly Clarkson realize how much her father wasn’t around when she was growing up.
“I think when you hold this little human you’ve created, now I think I understand the depth of the loss I had not having a father figure growing up,” she said in interview last week. “I didn’t really get that or grasp what that was until falling in love with my husband and seeing him be a father and what that actually is when it’s done well.”
Clarkson, 32, and music manager Brandon Blackstock, are the parents of 8-month-old River Rose.
The Grammy winner, known for hits like “Stronger” and “Since U Been Gone,” sings about her father on the heartfelt, revealing “Piece by Piece,” the title track of her new album.
“And no offense to my father, you know, he is a product of his upbringing, like, I don’t know what that was, but you know, I just think now that I have River, like holding her, I can’t imagine walking away,” she said.
“Piece by Piece” debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s 200 albums chart this week. While there are some serious tunes on the album, it also features upbeat jams, like the first single, “Heartbeat Song.”
In a recent interview, the original “American Idol” champion talked about giving birth to her daughter, watching her old “Idol” performances and recording music, including a country album.
AP: What’s your relationship like with your father now?
Clarkson: I don’t know him.
AP: Was it difficult recording the title track because of the subject matter?
Clarkson: It wasn’t hard recording ‘Piece by Piece.’ It’s proving to be harder singing live. ... It’s not even the sad parts of it because I’m not there. I’m not in that place anymore, like where I’m sad about it. I’m in a very forgiving place about it and everybody’s human. But I think I get really choked up because I just realize how lucky I am. ... And a lot of girls that grew up with their daddy issues and with not having that figure in their life, you know, take a very different road and I just feel lucky that I’m not that girl.
AP: Was it different to record music during your pregnancy?
Clarkson: They’re just hanging out on your diaphragm, jumping up and down. But also, just like emotionally, it’s different. I told my husband I want to be pregnant the next time I make an album because it makes much more, everything is enhanced ... I’ve just become more of an enhanced vessel for the lyric, you know? It becomes more emotional, more passionate and more vulnerable.
AP: Mariah Carey actually said her voice was more powerful after she gave birth. Do you feel that way?
Clarkson: I did feel more powerful while being pregnant. I guess it’s just because I’m like, ‘I can create life! What did you do today?!’
AP: Do you play music for your daughter?
Clarkson: I sing for her. I play guitar for her. She’s obsessed with watching the guitar. I haven’t done it well. ... She loves sound. She’s like any baby. She’s not some prodigy.
AP: You only co-wrote three songs for this album. What happened?
Clarkson: I wasn’t really feeling inspired. And all the songs I was writing like ‘Piece by Piece,’ ‘I Had a Dream’ or ‘Tightrope,’ they’re just very intense songs, and I was like, ‘This is developing into a very dramatic album.’
AP: You’ve lived in Nashville, Tennessee, for eight years. Have you thought about recording a country album?
Clarkson: I’ve done more than thought about doing a country album, I actually started making one. I love it. I love country music. And who knows? I love big band, too. I’d love to make a complete standards album.
AP: Any interest in doing a gospel album?
Clarkson: Well, my country album sounds very soulful. ... My country album isn’t too far from gospel on some parts of it.
AP: Do you watch your old music videos or performances?
Clarkson: A fan tweeted me some video, a ‘Throwback Thursday’ kind of thing, and I watched it. And then I went down the YouTube vortex of watching all my ‘Idol’ things. And I was like, ‘How did I win?’ It was so bad! I was like so bad! I mean, every single performance. The only one I ended up liking actually was the big band one.
AP: I’m sure they weren’t all bad, were they?
Clarkson: It was just fun because it’s been like 13 years. I was like, ‘I don’t feel like I’m any different.’ Then I was like, ‘Whoa! It’s like a big difference!’

Neuf journées de l'impressionnisme: 13 novembre 1872, Impression, soleil levant de Claude Monet | FIGARO HORS-SÉRIE (5/9) - Depuis sa chambre d'hôtel du Havre, Monet tente de fixer l'aurore au soleil rouge en une ébauche tremblante. L'impressionnisme est né.
Cet article est extrait du Figaro Hors-série Paris 1874, Impressionnisme-Soleil levant, un numéro spécial édité cent cinquante ans après la première exposition impressionniste commémorée par le musée d'Orsay qui a réuni, en un saisissant face-à-face, une large sélection des œuvres qui furent alors révélées au public. Pour être tenu au courant de l'actualité historique et culturelle, abonnez-vous gratuitement à la Lettre du Figaro Histoire.
Quand il a vu cela depuis sa fenêtre, du soleil dans la buée et devant quelques mâts, et qu'est montée en lui l'angoisse de le saisir, ça lui est revenu comme un paquet d'embruns. Ses tout premiers séjours sur les côtes normandes avec Boudin d'abord, puis Renoir, et Bazille, paix à son âme… et Sisley, et Jongkind. Déjà l'urgence de peindre, et sans un sou vaillant. Leur séjour à Trouville, l'été 1870. Monet venait d'épouser Camille. Les regards appuyés des gens derrière son dos tandis qu'on ramenait du front les premiers blessés : il avait l'âge d'être mobilisé. Son désir de peindre, plus fort encore que tout patriotisme. Jean, si petit, et sa mère : il n'avait plus d'argent pour subvenir à leurs besoins. Son départ à Londres, poussé par Camille, inquiète qu'il ne change d'avis. La mer et le ciel gris. Sa rencontre en exil avec Daubigny et Paul Durand-Ruel, qui devient l'ami et le marchand des impressionnistes. La National Gallery, où avec Pissarro ils étaient allés voir comment les Britanniques s'étaient tirés d'affaire pour traduire en peinture autant de brouillard et si peu de lumière. Et le flou de Whistler. Turner et ses vues de la Seine avaient dit à son cœur combien, au fond, la France lui manquait. Et puis il y avait eu les bruits de guerre civile tout de suite après l'armistice. Les lettres de Renoir qui contaient les combats, les fusillades, les pillages, les incendies, que les Parisiens avaient mangé les animaux du Jardin des Plantes et s'étaient réchauffés avec les arbres des squares et des boulevards. Le départ en Hollande, ses nuances innombrables, comment distinguer l'air de l'eau ? Chaque lever de soleil était une question : quand pourront-ils rentrer ? Promesse d'un jour nouveau. Urgence de peindre, vite, pour vivre, pour exister.
Dans la chambre de l'hôtel du Havre où il se trouve, il dresse son chevalet et fait danser ses pinceaux, en hâte, car à chaque instant le soleil change de place. Sa couleur et celle du ciel se transforment. Comment fixer ce qui échappe ? Il pense aux estampes japonaises que tout Paris s'arrache. Leurs auteurs ont souvent tenté comme lui d'arrêter le soleil, de prolonger sa course sur un bout de papier. Il y a le travail des hommes, le port qui s'organise, tous ces projets industriels dont on entend parler partout, les gares, les ports, les ponts. La vie grouillante et anonyme que le soleil levant nimbe d'éternité. Fumées mauves, brumes grises, bleues, mâts, grues et cheminées. D'un coup rapide, une barque et deux silhouettes. Les ombres sur l'eau et sous le ciel.
Ils avaient retrouvé Paris grouillant d'ouvriers, de chalands, d'échafaudages. Le squelette des Tuileries lui avait fait une drôle d'impression. Et Courbet qui était en prison ! Il avait retrouvé Renoir avec plaisir. Ses œuvres de Hollande, si pleines de soleil, se sont bien vendues. Manet les a trouvées belles. À la fin de 1871, ils se sont installés à Argenteuil, quinze minutes de voyage en train depuis la gare Saint-Lazare. Leur première vraie maison. Il a accroché aux murs ses estampes de Hokusai achetées une bouchée de pain en Hollande, et dont il est si fier. Maintenant que l'argent rentre, c'est lui qui paie ses coups, qui reçoit ses amis, Renoir, Sisley, Manet. Camille est plus heureuse et Jean a les joues rondes. Et lui court la campagne et la ville, à pied, en chemin de fer, et capte sur ses toiles les stigmates de la guerre, et toutes les formes que prend la reconstruction. Ce qui demeure aussi, les jeux d'un enfant, Camille dans le jardin.
Vite, une tache plus petite pour une deuxième barque, un peu plus loin à gauche, et une autre, perdue dans les reflets des mâts, pour une troisième barque encore un peu plus loin. Les reflets du soleil, roses et orangés, s'étagent et puis se perdent sur l'eau, et jusqu'au peintre. Il est 7 h 35, ce 13 novembre 1872. Monet calme d'un souffle l'anxiété qui le broie chaque fois qu'il tente d'arrêter le temps. Il pose ses pinceaux sans signer ni dater ce qui n'est qu'une ébauche, pochade d'un instant. Lorsque deux ans plus tard il s'agira de fournir la toute première manifestation de groupe impressionniste, il hésitera un peu avant de l'exposer, prudemment et telle quelle sous le titre Impression, soleil levant. Sans soupçonner un instant la portée que ce terme aurait pour l'avenir, ni la valeur d'emblème qu'endosse encore sa toile.

Love Island's Siannise Fudge finds love with footballer George Rigg | Love Island's Siânnise Fudge has found love with footballer George Rigg as they shared a series of romantic snaps from their holiday to Cyprus.
The TV personality, 27, who rose to fame on the first-ever winter series in 2020, split from her co-star ex Luke Trotman in November the following year.
Now, Siânnise has moved on as she confirmed her new relationship with the Frome Town FC player on Thursday.
Updating her Instagram followers, she looked loved-up as she posed for photo's with her new boyfriend from the sun-soaked location.
Siânnise looked sensational in a bright yellow bikini as she cosied up to George on the beach.
Another snap showed the couple getting ready for an evening out, with the former Love Island star wearing a pretty two-piece set.
Last year, MailOnline exclusively revealed that Luke had become engaged to his new girlfriend Chelsea Menna following a whirlwind three-month romance.
The former footballer, 26, who was a runner-up on the ITV2 show's winter series with his ex-girlfriend Siânnise, asked Chelsea to marry him in July 2022.
Luke and Chelsea now live together at the same property in Battersea, London, that the Islander once shared with Siânnise and their dog Nala – and the engaged couple have a pooch of their own called Tequila.
A source told MailOnline: 'It was love at first sight with Luke and Chelsea.
'Their romance blossomed overnight into a serious relationship and although it's not been long, they both know they're the one for each other.
'Luke has made London feel like home for Chelsea who's from Australia and they're very happy together.'
Luke and Chelsea, who's a former personal trainer and now works in TV, went public with their relationship on Instagram in May – six months after Luke's breakup from ex Love Island co-star Siânnise.
Siânnise and Luke were one of the golden couples from the 2020 winter series filmed in South Africa, but they lost out in the final to winners Paige Turley and Finn Tapp.
On a series of Instagram stories saved to Luke's profile, the reality star uses a diamond ring emoji to caption an album of memories with Chelsea.
The pair have enjoyed nights out together, tennis and basketball games, and sun-drenched walks with their dog.
Luke is running an Instagram profile for the couple's cocker spaniel Tequila and is named as the puppy's father on the account.
MailOnline has approached Luke's representatives and Chelsea for comment at the time. | {

Nachtzug zwischen Hamburg und Wien mit neuen Schlafwagen | Montagmittag ist erstmals ein "Nightjet" der Östereichischen Bundesbahn (ÖBB) mit Schlafwagen der neuesten Generation in Hamburg angekommen. Seit Dezember sind die Wagen mit dem Namen "Viaggio Next Level" im Einsatz.
Durch die stark gestiegene Nachfrage seit der Corona-Pandemie hatte die ÖBB kurzfristig ältere Wagen generalüberholt und modernisiert. Nun sind die ersten komplett neu produzierten Wagen auf dem europäischen Schienennetz unterwegs.
Wunsch nach mehr Privatsphäre
Neu sind vor allem die sogenannten Mini Cabins. Damit kommt die ÖBB dem Wunsch vieler alleine reisender Kundinnen und Kunden nach, mehr Privatsphäre zu haben und sich Kabinen, wie bisher üblich, nicht mehr teilen zu müssen. Bis 2026 rechnet die ÖBB mit bis zu drei Millionen Nightjet-Fahrgästen pro Jahr.
Platz für 254 Passagiere
Auf den Strecken Wien-Hamburg und Innsbruck-Hamburg verkehrt seit Sonntag erstmals ein Nachtzug mit mehr Komfort. Wie die ÖBB mitteilt, haben alle Abteile im Schlafwagen nun eigene Toiletten und eine Duschmöglichkeit. Die Schlafwagen hätten zwei, die Liegewagen vier Plätze. Der neue Zug mit zwei Sitz-, zwei Schlaf- und drei Liegewagen biete 254 Plätze. | {

Quelques jours pas plus, Black Flies, Agra, une famille indienne... Les films à voir ou à éviter cette semaine | Un critique de rock immature face au drame des migrants, une immersion choc dans le quotidien des secours new-yorkais, une image désespérée de l’Inde... La sélection cinéma du Figaro.
Quelques jours pas plus - À voir
Comédie de Julie Navarro, 1h43Arthur Berthier, critique rock, raccompagne une chanteuse dans sa chambre d'hôtel et ne peut l'empêcher de tout saccager. Le minibar passe par la fenêtre. La note est salée. Le rédacteur en chef d'Arthur ne compte pas payer une facture de 1 100 euros. Hippolyte Girardot a un faux air de Serge July. Le journal s'appelle L'Époque et ressemble à Libération. Arthur est relégué aux infos générales. En couvrant l'évacuation d'un camp de migrants, un CRS lui tape sur la tête à coups de matraque. Mathilde (Camille Cottin), responsable de l'association Solidarité Exilés, lui tape dans l'œil. Pour ses beaux yeux et son grand nez, Arthur accepte d'héberger Daoud, un jeune réfugié afghan. Benjamin Biolay, souvent utilisé au cinéma pour jouer les bourgeois pleutres ou salauds, se coule parfaitement dans le perfecto d'Arthur Berthier, quinqua indolent, immature et très drôle. Il picole sec, fume comme un pompier. Son appartement ressemble à la chambre d'un adolescent, vêtements éparpillés et sol jonché de boîtes de pizzas. Daoud souhaite partir en Angleterre retrouver son père. Il doit cohabiter avec ce spécimen de journaliste parisien irresponsable. Le film de migrant est devenu un genre en soi. Depuis Welcome, de Philippe Lioret, avec Vincent Lindon en maître-nageur à la piscine de Calais, les héros au grand cœur pullulent. Quelques jours pas plus, comédie sociale et romantique, est moins lénifiante. Elle est surtout beaucoup plus amusante. É.S.
Et plus si affinités - À voir
Comédie d'Olivier Ducray et Wilfried Meance, 1h17
Alors qu'une élève massacre avec application Carmen à la flûte à bec, Xavier (Bernard Campan), professeur de musique blasé l'écoute à peine, ne cherchant même pas à lutter contre la somnolence qui le gagne. Il aurait sûrement été moins pressé de voir le cours se terminer s'il avait su ce qui l'attendait chez lui. Sophie, sa femme (Isabelle Carré), a invité à dîner Adèle et Alban (Julia Faure et Pablo Pauly), leurs voisins du dessus dont l'intensité sonore des ébats nocturnes ne fait pas débat. À peine sont-ils arrivés que les premières piques fusent entre ces deux couples que tout oppose, l'un bourgeois et coincé, l'autre bien plus jeune et moins conventionnel. D'autant que la cuisson lente d'un gigot de sept heures va laisser du temps pour des préliminaires savoureux, avant que cette soirée explosive ne parte en vrille, de révélations en rebondissements. Adapté de Sentimental, un film espagnol lui-même tiré d'une pièce de théâtre, Et plus si affinités est une belle surprise. Anatomie de la vie conjugale à la mode partagée, ce vaudeville filmé à huis clos sur les désirs enfouis et l'usure amoureuse ne ménage pas ses effets, aussi drôles qu'efficaces. La mécanique est implacable, les répliques s'enchaînent et le rythme ne faiblit pas. En amuse-bouche devant les verrines, face à leurs hôtes bouche bée, Alban et Adèle confient pratiquer le « sexe en groupe », terme qu'ils préfèrent à « partouze ». Avec les entrées, une nouvelle révélation va faire grimper la folie. Personne ne sera épargné. Aucune raison de bouder son plaisir devant cette comédie théâtrale héritière de Cuisine et dépendances et du Prénom. V.B.
Black Flies - On peut voir
Drame de Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire, 2h
Avec Black Flies, Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire, ancien assistant de Cyril Collard et de Gaspar Noé, plonge dans les entrailles sombres de New York, sa ville d'adoption. Pour y accéder, il faut suivre les ambulances des infirmiers urgentistes, roulant toutes sirènes hurlantes et gyrophares allumés dans la nuit, à l'instar d'À tombeau ouvert de Martin Scorsese. À bord de l'une d'elles, Gene Rutkovsky (Sean Penn), un vieux briscard cabossé, hanté par ce qu'il a traversé le 11 Septembre, et Ollie Cross (Tye Sheridan révélé par Spielberg dans Ready Player One), une nouvelle recrue qui rêve d'être médecin, encore bercé par ses illusions. Elles ne feront pas long feu. Dès la première mission, son estomac ne résiste pas à la vue des corps étendus, gravement blessés par balle après un règlement de comptes sanglant. Ce n'est que le premier palier d'une descente aux enfers qu'il va vivre au quotidien avec son coéquipier aguerri, cure-dent à la commissure des lèvres tel un cow-boy. Mais New York n'est pas loin du Far West où la survie est un combat. Rien n'est épargné non plus aux spectateurs. Filmé en gros plans, ce long-métrage quasi documentaire adapté de 911, le roman de Shannon Burke, est une plongée complètement immersive dans cette humanité brute. Le voyage est éprouvant mais sa sincérité nous empêche de tirer sur l'ambulance. V.B.
Agra, une famille indienne - On peut voir
Drame de Kanu Behl, 1h48
Pour un touriste, Agra est célèbre pour le Taj Mahal. Pour un Indien, c'est aussi la ville où se trouve le plus grand asile psychiatrique du pays. Le spectateur a très vite des doutes sur la santé mentale de Guru. Le jeune homme s'imagine flirter avec Mala, une de ses collègues dont il est fou amoureux. Ses hallucinations prennent un tour plus cauchemardesque quand il fornique avec un écureuil géant sur la table de la cuisine. Le plus bestial des deux n'est pas celui qu'on pourrait croire. Plus tard, il tente de violer sa cousine, à même le sol. La frustration sexuelle va de pair avec l'absence d'intimité. Guru habite toujours chez ses parents. Il vit au rez-de-chaussée avec sa mère. Son père vit à l'étage avec sa maîtresse. Il envisage de vendre la maison à une troisième femme pour pouvoir l'agrandir. Insultes, cris et coups à tous les étages. La vie de famille n'est pas un long fleuve tranquille. Guru et ses parents se déchirent pour avoir leur part d'espace vital. La corruption immobilière est un fléau aussi redoutable que la corruption policière. Kanu Behl fait durer les transactions entre Guru et les promoteurs, jeu de dupe cruel et cynique. Il n'esquive pas non plus les scènes de sexe quand Guru rencontre enfin une jeune femme. Priti, veuve et propriétaire d'un cyber-café, marche en boitant. Les deux éclopés, physiquement et psychiquement abîmés, se consolent dans des corps à corps à la crudité sans fard. La lueur d'espoir du dénouement est faible. É.S.
Drive-Away Dolls - A éviter
Comédie d'Ethan Coen, 1h24
Que celui ayant eu l'idée de séparer les frères Coen se dénonce. Le cinéma ne lui dit pas merci. À deux, ils faisaient des étincelles. Sans Joël, Ethan lance des pétards mouillés. C'est cependant un bon mari : il a collaboré avec son épouse, Tricia Cooke. On ne dira jamais assez les méfaits du travail en couple. Les scénaristes ont une excuse : le script date d'une bonne vingtaine d'années. L'action se situe donc en 1999. Jamie, lesbienne de choc affichant un appétit d'ogre pour les parties de jambes en l'air, vient de rompre avec sa compagne. Elle la trompait. La dame, qui est flic, l'a mal pris. On la comprend. Un drame s'ajoute à la séparation : qui va garder le godemiché ? Il faudrait convoquer un juge aux affaires familiales pour dénouer cet épineux problème. Pour se changer les idées, notre délurée à bouclettes décide de quitter Philadelphie et de rejoindre Tallahassee avec une voiture de location et son amie, la timide, la réservée Marian. Cette dernière, qui aime aussi les femmes, a le tort d'être romantique. Le duo ignore que le coffre de leur véhicule renferme une cargaison dangereuse que convoitent de redoutables gangsters à leurs trousses. Le road-movie saute de motels en bars queer. Matt Damon apparaît brièvement en sénateur impliqué dans un scandale sexuel. Des intermèdes psychédéliques ponctuent ce voyage chaotique dont les roues patinent dans le vide. Cadrages de travers, messages laissés sur des répondeurs téléphoniques, humour forcé, le résultat, qui est plat comme une route déserte, provoque un triste sentiment de déjà-vu. É.N. | {

Wie ein Schweizer in Thailand ein Pflegedorf aufbaute | Martin Woodtli traf 2003 die Entscheidung: Er zog mit seiner an Alzheimer erkrankten Mutter von Münsingen (BE) nach Thailand.
Martin Woodtli ist heute 63 Jahre alt. Vor über 20 Jahren, nämlich 2003, gründete er das Pflegeheim «Baan Kamlanchay» in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Doch wie kam es zu dieser ungewöhnlichen Tat?
Woodtli selbst sagt: «Es war ein Experiment.» Als sein Vater sich das Leben nahm, zog er zurück in das Elternhaus in Münsingen (BE), um sich um seine Mutter zu kümmern.
Nach neun Monaten zu Hause wagte er es: Er reiste mit seiner Mutter Margrit Woodtli nach Thailand. Dort wollte Martin thailändische Betreuerinnen anstellen und wieder als Sozialarbeiter für eine Organisation tätig werden.
Auf die Frage, ob er sich bewusst gewesen sei, dass er eine an Alzheimer erkrankte Person aus ihrer gewohnten Umgebung herausnehme, antwortet Woodtli: «Ich war unsicher am Anfang und viele sagten mir, dass es gefährlich sei, eine Person, die sich an Erinnerungen klammert, zu entwurzeln. Ich dachte mir aber, dass es genau das Gegenteil bewirken könne: Eine heilsame Veränderung.»
Weshalb ging es nach Thailand?
Martin Woodtli kannte Thailand bereits: Er arbeitete vier Jahre lang als Sozialarbeiter für Médecins Sans Frontières in Chiang Mai. Er konnte deshalb abschätzen, was auf ihn zukommt. Zudem wusste Martin, dass er dort mit weniger Geld mehr Betreuung für seine Mutter erhält.
Martin bildete die drei Betreuenden seiner Mutter aus und mit der Zeit entstand eine Wohngemeinschaft, die zur Familie wurde für die Woodtlis.
20 Jahre später
Die Erfahrungen, die Martin mit seiner Mutter in Thailand gemacht hat, waren so eindrücklich, dass er das Angebot auch für andere Demenz- und Alzheimerkranke Menschen ausweiten wollte. Heute leben 14 solcher Gäste in verschiedenen Häusern im gleichen Dorf. Die meisten davon sind aus der Schweiz oder aus Deutschland.
Im kleinen Dorf von Faham gibt es Treffpunkte wie einen Gemeinschaftspool, einen kleinen Supermarkt und eine Terrasse, wo Frühstück, Mittag- und Abendessen serviert wird. «Immer in Begleitung von Betreuerinnen – sie haben alle drei, die im Schichtbetrieb auf sie aufpassen», erklärt Martin.
«Sie sprechen nicht dieselbe Sprache»
Dass die Gäste und ihre Betreuerinnen dieselbe Sprache sprechen, findet Martin Woodtli «nicht nötig». Auch bei seiner Mutter damals. Gewisse Unstimmigkeiten entstanden gar nicht erst, wenn sie einander nicht verstehen würden. 2003 sagte Martin, «ich bin permanent der Versuchung ausgesetzt (auf meine Mutter) zu reagieren und zu argumentieren». Zärtlichkeit und Blickkontakt seien wichtiger.
Ein Angehöriger eines Gastes erzählt, dass sein Vater in Chiang Mai sich sehr geöffnet habe. Er erzählt weiter, dass die Betreuung besser sei als in Deutschland für denselben Preis. Pro Monat kostet der Aufenthalt und die Betreuung in Woodtlis «Baan Kamlanchay» 3800 Franken.
Für Martin Woodtli sticht sein Nischenangebot preislich gar nicht gross raus. Mit den Betreuungskosten und den Reisekosten, die anfallen, müssen die Angehörigen viel auf sich nehmen, um ihre Angehörigen in Chiang Mai zu platzieren. Der Grund sei, dass die Demenz- und Alzheimer-Patienten hier nicht in einem Heim leben, sondern in eine familiäre und dörfliche Gemeinschaft eingebettet würden.
Seine Vision wäre es, auch in Europa mehr familiäre Betreuungsmodelle zu implementieren, weil man im Hinblick auf die Überalterung der Gesellschaft die Betreuung irgendwann auch nicht mehr finanzieren könne. | {

Larson fainted Saturday during an autograph appearance at Martinsville. He was transferred to a Charlotte hospital that evening for more tests.
The team has not revealed if a cause has been determined for the fainting.
The 22-year-old Larson was NASCAR’s top rookie last season. He missed Sunday’s race at Martinsville while undergoing tests. | {

Osmaniye'de cami kubbesine taşınan yuva yeniden leyleklerle buluştu - Osmaniye Haberleri | MUZAFFER ÇAĞLIYANER - Osmaniye'de deprem nedeniyle hasar gören cami minaresinden vinç yardımıyla kaldırılıp ibadethanenin kubbesine yerleştirilen yuva, kuluçka için dönen leylek çifti ağırlıyor.
MUZAFFER ÇAĞLIYANER - Osmaniye'de deprem nedeniyle hasar gören cami minaresinden vinç yardımıyla kaldırılıp ibadethanenin kubbesine yerleştirilen yuva, kuluçka için dönen leylek çifti ağırlıyor.
Üzerinde leylek yuvasının bulunduğu Sakarcalık Köyü Camisi'nin minaresi, Kahramanmaraş merkezli 6 Şubat 2023'teki depremlerde hasar gördü.
Yuva, afetten 1 ay sonra, Çevre, Şehircilik ve İklim Değişikliği İl Müdürlüğü, Doğa Koruma ve Milli Parklar ile AFAD ekiplerince vinç yardımıyla kaldırılıp kubbede hazırlanan yeni yerine taşındı.
Çalışmanın ardından hasarlı minare kontrollü şekilde yıkıldı.
Havaların ısınmasıyla köye gelen leylek çift, ibadethanedeki yuvada kuluçkaya yattı.
Sakarcalık köyündeki vatandaşlar da baharın simgesi misafirlerini sevinçle karşıladı.
- "Köyümüzün simgesi oldular"
Caminin imam hatibi Adem Koç, AA muhabirine, leyleklere ev sahipliği yaptıkları için "leylekli köy" olarak anıldıklarını söyledi.
Her yıl yuvadaki yumurtalardan çıkan yavruların gökyüzüyle buluşmasına şahitlik ettiklerini anlatan Koç, "Yeni yerine taşıdığımız yuvadan 1 yavru çıkmıştı. Bu yıl önce erkek, sonra dişi yuvaya döndü ve kuluçkaya yattı." diye konuştu.
Koç, leyleklerle anılmaktan mutluluk duyduklarını ifade ederek, "Köyümüzün simgesi oldular, buraya şenlik katıyorlar. Yeniden gelmeleri bizi mutlu etti." dedi.
Köy muhtarı Yusuf Caner Toktaş, bölgeye gelen leylek çiftin, yuvanın yeni yerine kısa zamanda alıştığını belirterek, şöyle konuştu:
"Leyleklerimize tekrar kavuştuğumuz için memnunuz. Minaremizi tekrar yaptığımızda yuvayı da eski yerine taşıyacağız. Köyümüz her zaman 'leylekli köy' olarak anıldı. İnşallah bundan sonra da böyle anılmaya devam edeceğiz."

Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey enjoy a romantic dinner date in LA | Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey were seen heading home after enjoying a romantic dinner date together at Funke in Beverly Hills, California on Tuesday night.
As the duo headed back to their car, the 30-year-old pop star could be seen carrying out a bag of leftovers, including a pizza, from the Italian restaurant, known for their handmade pastas, fried artichokes and stuffed squash blossoms.
For the occasion, he sported a backwards baseball cap, oversized striped t-shirt, jeans and pair of blue sneakers.
His spouse opted to show off her incredibly toned midriff in a white crop top, which she paired with a brown leather jacket, light-wash Bermuda shorts and loafers.
Her hair was perfectly slicked back in a sleek bun and she rocked a glamorous makeup look, consisting of blush and bronzer.
Before indulging in some desert with the supermodel, 26, inside the celebrity hotspot, the Baby hitmaker was spotted smoking in the back with some buddies.
Their outing comes less than a month after Bieber confirmed she has 'no issue' with Justin's ex Selena Gomez during an interview on Bloomberg's The Circuit.
While speaking about the 'silly made-up drama' about them on the latest episode of Bloomberg's The Circuit, Hailey admitted to host, Emily Chang, that the feud rumors really 'hurt her feelings' and that she feels 'misunderstood.'
Leaving little room for misinterpretation, she remarked on 'the vile, disgusting hatred that can come from completely made-up and twisted, and perpetuated narratives.'
Discussing the online promotion of her skincare line Rhode, Chang commented: 'You're going direct to your audience with this... the internet's not always a nice place, it's been kind of hard on you sometimes, hard on your marriage...'
Not shying away from the comment, Hailey replied: 'There's narratives that exist for me that really hurt my feelings and make me really upset.'
When Chang pressed on the 'ongoing drama' between Hailey and 'another celebrity,' the brunette model was keen to have her say.
'I don't think that this is about me, Hailey Bieber, and Selena Gomez,' she explained.
'This is not about this pitting between two women - it's about the vile, disgusting hatred that can come from completely made-up and twisted, and perpetuated narratives, that can be really dangerous.
'And I think that it's an opportunity to really stand for bringing people together and not being okay with the kind of division that it caused, because I'm not okay with [it].'
Hailey continued: 'I don't like this whole idea of team this person and team this person - I want to be able to bring people together and I think that it was a really important moment for people to see that you can do that and it doesn't have to be about this divisive nature,' she continued.
Chang described it as a 'frustrating old narrative' because it was two women 'being pitted against each other over a man.'
Clearly agreeing with her, Hailey shrieked back: 'Because of a guy! It's awful! I hate it! I've hated it since the beginning and it goes back to being misunderstood.
'Time and time again, I don't know why I keep having to say that there is no issue and no problem. It's so disappointing that people still behave this way over a man... it's the world we live in unfortunately.'
Hailey's comments come just a few months after she appeared to make reference to the rumored feud in a two-slide text post she shared to Instagram.
Stephen Baldwin's daughter admitted that 2023 had not been easy for her and that she'd been left emotionally 'fragile' after having to face difficulty after difficulty.
'I like to make jokes about how I feel because sometimes it's easier than admitting I'm having a hard time,' Hailey began.
Back in March, Hailey became the target of backlash after fans of Selena, 30, began accusing her of 'copying' the star's style choices, career moves and even her taste in men.
Weeks later, the former Disney Channel star broke her silence on the matter and urged her fans to stop with the 'hate and bullying.'
Selena addressed the speculation once and for all in a post shared to her Instagram Stories - and begged her followers to halt all the negative comments against Hailey since she said she's an 'advocate for kindness.'
'Hailey Bieber reached out to me and let me know that she has been receiving death threats and such hateful negativity,' she wrote.
'This isn't what I stand for. No one should have to experience hate or bullying. I've always advocated for kindness and really want this all to stop.'
For years, the internet has pit Justin's ex Selena and the model against one another.
But in October 2022, they proved there was no bad blood between them when they posed for some photos together at an event - and they were even seen hugging it out.
However, in February 2023, rumors that they were fighting started to spread once again after Hailey shared a TikTok video in which some believed she was making fun of Selena. | {

JO Paris 2024 : «Pas de dérive budgétaire» ni de «coût caché», affirme le gouvernement | La ministre des Sports a assuré aux députés que ces Jeux seraient «les moins coûteux depuis Sydney», en 2000, alors que la Cour des comptes a évoqué une facture qui pourrait atteindre les 5 milliards d’euros.
Les Jeux olympiques vont-ils coûter cher aux contribuables français ? La ministre des Sports et des JO, Amélie Oudéa-Castéra, a assuré aux députés ce mardi 2 avril, dans la soirée, qu'il n'y avait «pas de coût caché ni de dérive budgétaire» s'agissant de la facture des Jeux olympiques et paralympiques de Paris. «Ces JO sont les moins coûteux depuis Sydney (2000, NDLR)», a-t-elle assuré.
Pour le moment, la facture totale des Jeux est de 8,8 milliards d'euros, 4,4 milliards d'euros pour le comité d'organisation (composé des recettes de billetterie, de la contribution du CIO et des recettes de sponsors) et 4,4 milliards d'euros pour les infrastructures (dont 1,7 milliard d'euros publics).
Un «travail fin d’évaluation» en cours
Une semaine plus tôt, le président de la Cour des comptes, Pierre Moscovici, a indiqué que les Jeux olympiques de Paris «devraient coûter» entre trois et cinq milliards d'euros d'argent public, précisant que la facture ne serait connue qu'après l'évènement (26 juillet-11 août). En effet, certains coûts publics ne sont pas encore connus, comme celui de la sécurité assurée par l'État. La ministre a assuré qu'un «travail fin d'évaluation» était en cours, ministère par ministère, pour ce qui est des dépenses de l'État, lors de cette séance de questions dédiée aux JO à la demande du groupe LR.
Interrogée sur la situation délicate du groupe français Atos, partenaire du CIO et du Cojo, en pleine déconfiture, et qui doit assurer notamment des services de cybersécurité, Amélie Oudéa-Castéra a indiqué que la situation était regardée avec «vigilance», de concert avec l'Agence française de sécurité informatique (Anssi).
Questionnée sur la sécurité et le renfort extérieur en policiers et militaires, Amélie Oudéa-Castéra a précisé qu'en plus des brigades cynophiles, compte tenu du manque de chiens renifleurs, il y avait aussi des demandes de «motocyclistes», «brigades équestres», «experts de la fraude documentaire», ou encore «des spécialistes de la lutte anti-drone» notamment. «Fin mars, 35 États ont répondu favorablement pour des renforts notamment sur les risques cynotechniques», a-t-elle dit. Au total, «une quarantaine d'équipes cynotechniques militaires étrangères viendront renforcer le dispositif.» | {

Bützow: Stadtvertretung stimmt über Flüchtlingsheim-Standort ab | Soll die Stadt Bützow dem Landkreis Rostock eine Fläche für den Bau einer Flüchtlingsunterkunft überlassen? Der Bürgerentscheid dazu war vor vier Wochen gescheitert. Am Abend stimmen nun die Stadtvertreter darüber ab.
Weil es beim Bürgerentscheid zu wenig Ja- oder Nein-Stimmen gab, muss nun die Stadtvertretung Bützow entscheiden, ob die Stadt dem Landkreis eine städtische Fläche überlassen soll. Für "Ja" stimmten aber nur knapp 1.200, dagegen weniger als 1.400 Menschen.
Landrat will so oder so in Bützow bauen
Die Nein-Stimmen entsprachen nicht einem Viertel der Wahlberechtigten. Das allerdings wäre notwendig gewesen, um die Entscheidung zu fällen. Landrat Sebastian Constien (SPD) hatte in der vergangenen Woche noch einmal bekräftigt, dass der Kreis bei einem Nein der Stadtvertreter, eine Unterkunft für Geflüchtete auf der kreiseigenen Fläche neben dem Schulcampus baut.
Bürgermeister wirbt für städtische Fläche
Bützows Bürgermeister Christian Grüschow (parteilos) hatte ursprünglich dafür geworben, dem Kreis eine städtische Fläche in geeigneterer Lage zu überlassen. Doch Grüschow übt auch Kritik am Vorgehen des Landrates. Es sei unklar, ob der Kreis tatsächlich auf den Bau einer Unterkunft am Schulstandort verzichtet, wenn er auch auf einer städtischen Fläche bauen darf. | {

Humza Yousaf hit with more complaints than JK Rowling under new hate crime laws | The SNP leader reportedly receives more complaints under the controversial legislation than the Harry Potter author.
Humza Yousaf has reportedly been hit with more complaints than JK Rowling under the SNP's new hate crime laws.
More than 3,000 complaints have been made to police since the controversial legislation came into force on Monday.
A police source said the Scottish First Minister received more about a speech he made to Holyrood in 2020 than the Harry Potter author had over her trans comments.
They told The Sun: “A lot of those complaints were about Humza Yousaf, on the same complaint about his parliamentary rant.
"JK Rowling has had some, but not as many as Humza Yousaf."
Complaints about the Scottish First Minister relate to a speech he made in Holyrood in June 2020 following the death of George Floyd in the US which sparked Black Lives Matter protests.
In a clip of the speech, which prompted Elon Musk to label Mr Yousaf a "blatant racist", he said that "in 99% of their meetings I go to, I am the only non-white person in the room”.
Mr Yousaf, who was Scottish justice secretary at the time, added: “Why are we so surprised when the most senior positions in Scotland are filled almost exclusively by people who are white?
“Take my portfolio, for example. The Lord President is white, the Lord Justice Clerk is white, every High Court judge is white, the Lord Advocate is white, the Solicitor General is white, the chief constable is white, every deputy chief constable is white, every assistant chief constable is white, the head of the Law Society is white, the head of the Faculty of Advocates is white and every prison governor is white.”
Police Scotland confirmed it had received “a number of complaints” about the speech under the new Hate Crime Act.
It added: “Earlier complaints regarding this matter were assessed at the time and it was established no crime was committed and no further action was required.”
The force has also confirmed that comments made by Rowling on social media on Monday were "not assessed to be criminal" and "no further action will be taken" against the writer.
The Harry Potter author branded a series of trans women as men and challenged police to arrest her if they believed she had committed a crime.
It comes amid controversy over the new legislation which creates a new crime of "stirring up hatred" relating to age, disability, religion, sexual orientation and transgender identity.
Critics including Rowling have voiced concerns about its impact on freedom of speech, while others have raised the prospect of vexatious or malicious complaints being made under the legislation.
David Campbell Bannerman, chairman of the Conservative Democratic Organisation, told Express.co.uk this week that the First Minister "must be relieved" to have delivered the speech before his new law came into effect.
He added: "Being anti-white is just as racist as other forms of racism and is just as unacceptable.
"These SNP Nationalist Socialists are a danger to all our freedoms and are spreading anti-white and anti-English hatred through their extremism and idiocy." | {

People are only just realising why Guinness was given after blood donations | Guinness is best enjoyed while watching rugby, but it was once loved by medical professionals and even patients. Here, we dig a little into the the history of the creamy Irish stout
As a pint of Guinness or two is enjoyed at the Six Nations, it turns out the stout was once popular with not just rugby fans.
Although a pint of the black stuff is synonymous with contact sport, Guinness actually had its centre stage moment in the healthcare sector.
While we all know that booze, especially excessively, can be damaging for both physical and mental health, Guinness was given as a remedy after a particular appointment.
No, not a reward after undergoing painstaking surgery nor a celebratory offer after popping a tot out. Guinness was once thought to have a whole plethora of health benefits, and until recently, was given to blood donators in Ireland.
That's because the creamy Irish dry stout - which was invented in 1759 - contains high iron levels along with calcium and vitamin B.
After each blood donation, you lose around 220-250 mg of iron. According to the NHS Blood Donation, "if too much iron is taken out of storage and not replaced through dietary sources, iron stores may become depleted and haemoglobin levels fall."
So to avoid the likes of plummeting your iron levels, you should consume iron-rich foods like red meat, fish and spinach. And until 2010, Guinness provided a free pint to blood donators in Ireland due to the very fact its full of iron.
Even on Lorraine back in 2022, Dr Hilary admitted he used to 'prescribe' it on wards. At the time, he said: "I used to prescribe it, you know, on the wards.
"Plenty of iron in there for oxygen supply to the body through red blood cells. And it’s also got some vitamin B in it, which is very good for brain function, which is why the Irish are so intelligent, of course."
And, in 2003 researchers at the University of Wisconsin found a pint of Guinness-a-day may be as effective as a low dose aspirin to prevent the likes of heart clots that increase the risk of heart attacks.
But, that doesn't mean you should be glugging Guinness and swapping other iron-full products for it. But, hey, a good excuse for a cheeky pint, right? Remember, moderation is your best mate.
And with the Six Nations in full swing, Guinness and ITV, along with help from Creative Equals, are making sporting history by introducing live descriptive audio commentary for the first time.
The service was available during ITV’s coverage of England vs Wales on February 10 and can be accessed during the upcoming England vs Ireland match on March 9.
They've launched the live descriptive commentary to enable blind and partially-sighted fans to follow every part of the game - from the players to numbers on their shirts and the specific details on passes, tackles and tries.
Emma Murphy, community director, Creative Equals, said: "We're thrilled our first Disabled Creatives programme - sponsored by Diageo and with creative collaboration from Guinness - was the catalyst for this game-changing, UK-first in live sport.
"People with disabilities have long been excluded from experiencing sporting events, but with collaborative action that embraces disability, we can remove the barriers that stand in the way. Let's be clear - there is no inclusivity without disability inclusivity." | {

Ex-Olympic swim champ Muffat dies in Argentina crash | PARIS (AP) — Camille Muffat, the French swimmer who won three medals at the 2012 London Olympics and then retired suddenly two years later, died in a helicopter crash in Argentina. She was 25.
Muffat, who won gold in the 400-meter freestyle in London, was killed when two helicopters filming a reality show crashed Monday in a remote area about 730 miles (1.170 kms) northwest of Buenos Aires.
After years spent in the daunting shadow of Laure Manaudou, Muffat made her breakthrough in London, becoming the fourth French swimmer to win a gold medal at the Olympics after Jean Boiteux, Manaudou and Alain Bernard.
Muffat also won silver in the 200-meter freestyle and bronze in the 4x200 freestyle relay to become only the third Frenchwoman to win three medals at the same Olympics.
Muffat first attracted media attention when she defeated Manaudou in the 200-meter medley at the 2005 French championships, when she was just 15.
“Beyond our sporting rivalries, I had a deep respect for Camille and a true bond that related to our crossed career paths and common shyness,” Manaudou said Tuesday. “This morning I’m sobbing over the death of a great champion and a friend.”
American swimmer Allison Schmitt, who won the silver medal behind Muffat in the 400 freestyle in London by a mere 0.32 seconds, was among the many athletes who joined in tributes to the French champion.
“Deeply saddened by the sudden death of Camille Muffat. A great racer and champion. My thoughts and prayers are with you all,” Schmitt wrote on Twitter.
Britain’s Rebecca Adlington, who finished third in the race, also took to Twitter to express her feelings.
“So sad and shocked to wake up to hear the tragic death of Camille Muffat,” Adlington wrote. “She was an amazing sportswoman, competitor and lovely person. ... RIP Olympic Champion Camille Muffat. You will be dearly missed.”
Muffat, who was also a four-time world championship bronze medalist, retired from swimming last year after ruling out her chances of success at the 2016 Rio Olympics following a dispute with her coach, Fabrice Pellerin.
“Camille, we often called her Mrs. 100 percent,” said Muffat’s boyfriend, William Forgues. “She succeeded in many things. Let’s say nearly everything, But in any case, she was very happy when she left.”
On March 6, Muffat posted a final message on her Facebook page from Argentina, writing under a selfie showing her in a dark parka: “All good with me, leaving Ushuaia this morning, see you soon.”
Muffat was treated to a rapturous welcome after the London Games. She was paraded in the streets of her home city of Nice and was also made knight of the Legion d’honneur, France’s highest decoration.
Olympic gold medalist Amaury Leveaux remembered Muffat as a discrete athlete “who was always there when it was time for a bit of a laugh.”
Richard Papazian, the president of the Nice swimming club in southern France where Muffat used to swim, was overcome by emotion.
“I could not believe it and then the news was confirmed. What a terrible tragedy,” said Papazia, his voice cracking. “I had a lot of affection for Camille. I can’t find the words. It’s a terrible destiny.”
World swimming’s governing body mourned the loss of “one of the most well-known and admired sports persons in her country.”
“Muffat was a talented swimmer and a human being of great value. She was and will remain a role model for the youth in France and a true inspiration for all those aiming at becoming successful swimmers,” FINA president Julio C. Maglione said in a statement. | {

Bryan Adams shares explicit meaning of hit song 'Summer of '69' | If you thought the classic rock hit "Summer of ‘69" was just about memories from the summer of 1969, think again. Singer Bryan Adams, who released the record in 1984, said in a new interview that the song actually has a much more suggestive message.
"I was going to call the song Best Days of My Life but mentioning ‘69’ felt a bit more provocative," he told The Sunday Times. "Isn’t this talk a bit sexy for breakfast time?"
The Canadian musician has previously discussed how his song was referencing the sexual position, revealing on television in 2008, "A lot of people think it's about the year… It's more about making love in the summertime. It's used the ‘69’ as a sexual reference."
Adams' co-writer on the song, Jim Vallance, has suggested a different narrative. Vallance says the song was actually a representation of the men's summers as teenage boys. "We each had our version of our favorite summer from our teen years and incorporated those memories and those thoughts into the lyric," he said on the web series "Music Night At The Majestic."
Nowadays, Adams, 64, says his best times are the ones he's creating now. "The best days are now, always now," he told The Sunday Times. "When I wrote that song I was trying hard to imagine or fantasize what life would hold, but I’m there now and, you know, it’s great."
This past July, Adams' summer of 2023 got a little crazy. While performing "Summer of '69" at his Salt Lake City concert, an unruly concertgoer hopped on stage and took the concert by storm. Adams quickly moved away from the microphone.
"Bought it at the five and dime," a man sang commandingly into the microphone, much to Adams' bemusement. The crasher got to sing a few more lyrics before security in red shirts rushed on stage and grabbed him on both sides. The man was escorted off-stage, and without missing a beat, Adams was able to hit his cue for the iconic line, "Was the summer of '69."
Adams posted the ordeal to his Instagram – making fun of the bizarre nature of the act. "Sometimes you just gotta laugh…#stagecrasher #summerof69," he wrote in his caption.
He is currently touring internationally. | {

2:9! Historische Pleite für Josis Nashville | Die Nashville Predators müssen in der NHL gegen die Dallas Stars eine Niederlage historischen Ausmasses hinnehmen.
2:9! Derart deutlich mussten sich die Predators vor eigenem Anhang noch nie geschlagen geben. Neun Gegentore gab es in der Geschichte der vor 25 Jahren als 27. Franchise in die NHL aufgenommenen Mannschaft bisher überhaupt erst einmal. Im November 2019 wurden die Predators von den Colorado Avalanche in Denver 4:9 bezwungen. Ein noch klareres Verdikt zu ihren Ungunsten gab es im Januar 1999. Damals ging das Team aus Tennessee bei den Philadelphia Flyers 0:8 unter.
Gegen Dallas zeichnete sich das Unheil früh ab. Die Gäste führten nach 35 Sekunden 1:0, nach dem ersten Drittel 4:0. Mit ihrer Sternstunde bestätigten die Stars ein weiteres Mal ihre derzeit gute Verfassung. Aus den letzten acht Partien resultierten sieben Siege.
Persönliches Erfolgserlebnis für Kurashev
Die zuletzt etwas aus dem Tritt geratenen Los Angeles Kings mit Kevin Fiala bezwangen die New Jersey Devils mit Nico Hischier und Timo Meier auswärts 2:1. Der Kanadier Quinton Byfield entschied die Partie gut fünf Minuten vor Schluss im Powerplay zugunsten der Mannschaft aus Kalifornien, die von den vorangegangenen sieben Spielen fünf verloren hatte.
Zu den Gewinnern des Abends gehörte auch Pius Suter. Die Vancouver Canucks mit dem Zürcher gaben sich beim 4:1-Heimerfolg gegen die Detroit Red Wings keine Blösse. Für die aktuelle Nummer 1 der NHL war es der dritte Sieg in Folge.
Die Chicago Blackhawks mussten sich trotz eines Tors von Philipp Kurashev ein weiteres Mal geschlagen geben. Das 1:4 in der heimischen Arena gegen die Pittsburgh Penguins war für das Schlusslicht der Liga die achte Niederlage am Stück. Kurashev sorgte im zweiten Drittel für den Anschlusstreffer zum 1:2. Mehr als ein kurzzeitiger Hoffnungsschimmer war das neunte Tor des Schweizers mit russischen Wurzeln in der laufenden Saison aber nicht. | {

Kendall Jenner reveals Kris Jenner REALLY wants her to get married | Kendall Jenner admitted that her mother, Kris Jenner, is 'manifesting an engagement' for her through a special gift that was given to her.
The TV personality, 27, who turned up the heat by posing topless for Calvin Klein, opened up about a dollhouse that she received from the momager over the Christmas holiday in the finale episode of Hulu's The Kardashians on Thursday.
Along with the 818 Tequila founder, her other sisters were also gifted their own custom-made dollhouse that was filled with items geared to their own passions and interests.
The model, who has had a love for horses since she was a child, found pieces such as riding clothes and a helmet to cater towards her passion.
However, one specific object made it clear to the beauty what her mother's hopes were for the near future and revealed that an engagement ring was also inside.
'She put an engagement ring in mine because she thought it was manifesting an engagement for me,' the reality star expressed during a confessional in the latest episode.
Kendall, who has become a new L'Oréal ambassador, then humorously added, 'So if that tells you anything about where my mom wants me to be in life.'
The ring wasn't the first time that Kris had brought up her daughter's future. During an episode from the second season of the hit Hulu show that aired last year in 2022, Kris mentioned the prospect of the model having children.
At one point, the socialite told Kendall, 'I was just thinking, maybe it's time to, you know, have a baby,' which immediately prompted the beauty to have a rather shocked reaction over the topic, per People.
The star then told her mother, 'You keep telling me, "You're not getting any younger," but guess what? It's my life. I don't know if I'm ready yet,' with Kris cutting in to ask, 'Are you sure it's your life?'
During a confessional, Kendall explained, 'I still have a lot to figure out before I can welcome a child into my life. I'm still enjoying life on my own. And I'm okay with that right now.'
Last month in June, she gave an update on her plans to start a family, and admitted to the Wall Street Journal, 'I'm excited for that time in my life. I just know it's not right now.'
However, she also revealed that when the time came, she didn't intend to raise her children in Los Angeles, adding, 'Oh yeah. You heard it here first.'
Kendall is the only sibling to not have children in her large family. Her younger sister, Kylie Jenner, shares daughter Stormi, five, and son Aire, one, with ex and rapper, Travis Scott.
Kim is mother to North, 10, Saint, seven, Chicago, five, and Psalm, four, with ex-husband, Kanye West, while Khloe shares True, five, and son Tatum, almost one, with her cheating ex, Tristan Thompson.
Kourtney, who is expecting her fourth child and first with Travis Barker, already shares sons Mason, 13, and Reign, eight, as well as daughter Penelope, 11, with ex, Scott Disick. Rob Kardashian also shares daughter, Dream, six, with ex, Blac Chyna.
Kendall has notably been romantically linked to Puerto Rican rapper, Bad Bunny, since February of this year.
After exiting a Los Angeles restaurant at the time, the pair have been spotted on numerous occasions since then, such as enjoying dinners together and going on a horseback riding excursion in April.
Later that same month, the reality star and rapper were seen cozying up at the Coachella Music Festival, and Jenner was also spotted cheering on the music artist during his set at the annual event.
Just days before the 2023 MET Gala in NYC, the pair stepped out for dinner at the celebrity hotspot, Carbone.
Also in May, the two stars were seen sitting next to each other in courtside seats to watch the Lakers vs. Golden State Warriors NBA playoff game. They were last seen together grabbing dinner in Santa Monica a few weeks later.
The pair also seemingly spent time on a tropical getaway with pals, and appeared in a since-deleted TikTok shared by photographer, Renell Medrano.
In June, the stars were spotted on a few separate outings, such as stopping by The Beverly Hills Hotel. However, both Kendall and the rapper have yet to publicly comment on the relationship rumors.
Earlier this month, the rumored couple enjoyed a relaxing summer getaway to Idaho at the Gozzer Ranch Golf & Lake Club, according to People.
A source told the outlet that the two looked 'really cute' and 'so happy together' while on the trip.
'They definitely seem in love, and super serious. They're really friendly. Kendall is so low key that plenty of guests don't even know who she was,' the insider added. | {

La proposition de loi sur l'attractivité financière de la France arrive à l'Assemblée nationale ce mercredi | Le projet de loi vise à faciliter les introductions en Bourse ou encore à favoriser la tenue à distance des assemblées générales d'actionnaires.
Une proposition de loi visant à accroître l'attractivité financière de la France doit être examinée en commission des finances à l'Assemblée nationale mercredi. Elle vise notamment à faciliter les introductions en Bourse ou encore favoriser la tenue à distance des assemblées générales d'actionnaires. Présentée par le député Renaissance Alexandre Holroyd (Français établis hors de France), la proposition de loi doit passer dans l'Hémicycle le 9 avril, puis au Sénat le 14 mai.
Le texte, qui vise à «accroître les capacités de financement depuis la France et à faciliter le financement par le marché», comprend quatorze articles et passe par des retouches du droit Français. L'une des mesures qui sera présentée vise par exemple à faciliter les introductions en Bourse en favorisant le développement des actions à droits de vote multiples. Ce mécanisme, courant aux États-Unis, permet aux fondateurs d'une entreprise de lever du capital tout en gardant un plus grand contrôle qu'avec des actions ordinaires. Une deuxième mesure permettrait aux fonds de capital-investissement d'investir dans des sociétés cotées dont la capitalisation atteint jusqu'à 500 millions d'euros, contre 150 millions à l'heure actuelle.
Mobilisation des capitaux
Ce dispositif permettrait de «faire rentrer (...) un peu moins d'une centaine d'entreprises européennes dans ce vivier» d'investissement, qui s'ajouteraient aux 417 sociétés à la capitalisation inférieure à 150 millions, détaille Alexandre Holroyd.

"Le texte, qui vise à «accroître les capacités de financement depuis la France et à faciliter le financement par le marché», comprend quatorze articles et passe par des retouches du droit Français. L'une des mesures qui sera présentée vise par exemple à faciliter les introductions en Bourse en favorisant le développement des actions à droits de vote multiples. Ce mécanisme, courant aux États-Unis, permet aux fondateurs d'une entreprise de lever du capital tout en gardant un plus grand contrôle qu'avec des actions ordinaires. Une deuxième mesure permettrait aux fonds de capital-investissement d'investir dans des sociétés cotées dont la capitalisation atteint jusqu'à 500 millions d'euros, contre 150 millions à l'heure actuelle."

Bayern Munich willing to pay £86m for Harry Kane ahead of new talks | Bayern Munich are reportedly willing to pay Tottenham a £86m fee to sign Harry Kane this summer ahead of new talks over a possible transfer.
Spurs have rejected two bids from the German champions thus far and were hoping to land £100m to part ways with their all-time record goalscorer.
But Kane has less than a year left on his current deal and the England captain is believed to be keen on a move to the Bundesliga side ahead of the new season.
His wife has been spotted looking for a new home as well as schools for the pair’s children in Munich, according to recent reports in Germany, while Tottenham have already made Randal Kolo Muani their top target to replace Kane.
Two of Bayern’s top executives are now on their way to London for fresh discussions with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy over a move for Kane, according to the Telegraph.
Bayern are confident of landing a deal and are not worried about rival interest from Paris Saint-Germain – as it is believed that the 29-year-old does not want to join the French club – despite Levy almost reaching an agreement with them.
Despite PSG being willing to outbid Bayern, it is thought that it would take a major U-turn for Kane to consider a switch to the Ligue 1 side this summer.
Kane’s reluctance to join PSG and Levy’s unwillingness to sell to a Premier League rival is a major boost for Bayern, who feel they can reach a pre-contract agreement with the striker in January if a deal with Spurs does not get over the line this summer.
Bayern want to bring Kane to the Allianz Arena as soon as possible, though, and would even be willing to agree to a buy-back clause if it tempted Spurs into a sale.
Tottenham insist that they do not want to sell Kane but Bayern feel it is significant that they have ‘an open channel of communication’ with the north Londoners. | {

So viel kostet der Tarifabschluss das Land Niedersachsen | Die kürzlich beschlossene Tarifanhebung für die Beschäftigten im öffentlichen Dienst der Länder kostet Niedersachsen gut 2,3 Milliarden Euro. Das teilte das Finanzministerium dem NDR Niedersachsen mit.
"Eine überschlägige Berechnung der Auswirkungen auf den Landeshaushalt hat für das Jahr 2023 eine Belastung von rund 460 Millionen Euro, für 2024 von rund 420 Millionen Euro und für 2025 von rund 1,457 Milliarden Euro ergeben", teilte ein Sprecher des Finanzministeriums mit. Die Zahlen umfassen demnach auch die Übertragung der Tarifanhebung auf die Beamtinnen und Beamten, Richterinnen und Richter sowie auf die Versorgungsempfängerinnen und -empfänger. Auch die Landesbetriebe und Stiftungen seien berücksichtigt. "Die aktuelle Vorsorge des Landes ist dafür ausreichend", erklärte der Sprecher.
Beschäftigte bekommen 5,5 Prozent mehr Lohn und Sonderzahlungen
Nach tagelangen Verhandlungen wurde am Wochenende ein Durchbruch im Tarifkonflikt erzielt: Die Beschäftigten des öffentlichen Dienstes der Länder erhalten Inflationsausgleichszahlungen von insgesamt 3.000 Euro. Ab November 2024 steigen die Einkommen um einen Sockelbetrag von 200 Euro und ab Februar 2025 um 5,5 Prozent. Das hatten die Gewerkschaften und die Tarifgemeinschaft deutscher Länder (TdL) am Samstag in Potsdam mitgeteilt.
Bremen rechnet mit Kosten von 298 Millionen Euro
Bremen wird der Tarifabschluss nach ersten Schätzungen des Landes 298 Millionen Euro kosten. Für die Beamtinnen und Beamten muss der Abschluss noch per Gesetz übertragen werden, wie das Finanzressort am Montag mitteilte. Der Senator für Finanzen erarbeite einen entsprechenden Gesetzesentwurf. Bremens Finanzsenator Björn Fecker bezeichnete den Tarifabschluss als vernünftigen Kompromiss. "Die Haushaltslage ist extrem angespannt. Mit Blick darauf ist das ein herausforderndes, aber gerade noch tragfähiges Ergebnis", teilte der Grünen-Politiker mit. Schließlich seien die Lebenshaltungskosten gestiegen und das Land müsse als Arbeitgeber attraktiv bleiben. | {

Kevin Costner and Jewel owe new romance to Richard Branson: report | Kevin Costner and singer Jewel ignited romance rumors last week when they appeared together at a charity event in the Caribbean, and it appears they can thank Richard Branson for playing matchmaker.
The pair were photographed on Richard Branson’s Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands for a tennis fundraiser for the Inspiring Children Foundation, an organization started by Jewel.
According to sources in The Daily Mail, "Richard is 100 percent responsible for Kevin and Jewel hooking up. She has been a friend of Branson's for years and he has been a close friend of Kevin's since the 1990's."
"Richard invited Jewel to hold her charity fundraiser on Necker and, honestly, the hookup happened organically," the source continued. "They hit it off well and Jewel seems to be happy about it."
They added, "She is not really one for words, but her friends can see a light in her that hasn’t been there in quite some time."
A representative for Branson told Fox News Digital that they have no comment at this time. Representatives for Costner and Jewel did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
Photographs from TMZ showed Jewel speaking into a microphone and appearing to sit on Costner’s lap, with his arms around her waist.
Jewel shared a group photo featuring her and Costner in a social media recap of the event, and mentioned Costner in the caption.
"@kevincostnermodernwest was kind enough to mentor our kids this year, and Sir Richard was his usual inspiring self- who also plays a mean game of doubles!"
According to The Daily Mail’s sources, "Jewel likes herself a man’s man and she is all about Kevin’s country western vibe."
Despite the cozy pics, the source noted, "They are not serious right now, but they are having fun."
The outlet’s source said Branson invited Costner to his luxury Necker island to help distract him from his contentious divorce from his ex-wife Christine Baumgartner, while at the same time inviting Jewel to the island for her fundraiser.
Costner finalized his divorce from Baumgartner in September, after 18 years of marriage and three children, settling just before they were due back in court to establish who would be responsible for paying Baumgartner’s nearly $1 million in attorneys’ fees.
Costner has previously been married, first to Cindy Silva from 1978 to 1994, and they had three children together. The "Dances with Wolves" star is also a father to a son with Bridget Rooney.
Jewel was previously married to pro rodeo cowboy Ty Murray, and the couple share one son. | {

Orakpo agrees to terms with Tennessee Titans | NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Outside linebacker Brian Orakpo is now a Tennessee Titan, one of several moves the team made.
The Titans announced Friday they had agreed to terms with Orakpo, outside linebacker Derrick Morgan, kicker Ryan Succop, tight end Anthony Fasano and defensive tackle Karl Klug.
“Outside linebacker was a position that we needed to address heading into the offseason,” Titans general manager Ruston Webster said in a release announcing the moves. “Derrick is a true pro, and you could see his growth in a new system. Brian has a proven record and adds a dimension to our group.”
Orakpo, a three-time Pro Bowl selection, had spent his entire six-year career with the Washington Redskins. Fasano spent last season with the Kansas City Chiefs. Morgan, Succop and Klug were all with the Titans last year.
The Titans didn’t announce terms or lengths of the deals. But Orakpo’s agent, Ben Dogra, said his client has agreed on a four-year deal worth up to $35 million.
Also, people familiar with the moves said that Morgan has agreed on a four-year deal with the Titans and that Succop had reached a three-year deal to remain with the team. The people spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity before the deals had been announced.
ESPN first reported Orakpo had agreed to terms. The Tennessean first reported the deals for Morgan, Succop, Fasano and Klug.
The Titans staggered to a 2-14 record last season, and defense was an issue. Signing Orakpo and hanging on to Morgan — both former first-round draft picks — could boost the unit that gave up 373 yards per game last season to rank 27th in the NFL.
Orakpo has 40 career sacks in six seasons, though he has played only 24 games over the last three years. Orakpo played seven games for Washington last season before tearing his right pectoral muscle in a 19-17 victory over the Titans. The 28-year-old Orakpo also has torn the pectoral muscle near his left shoulder twice.
When healthy, Orakpo is a pass-rushing threat. He had 11 sacks his rookie year of 2009, 8½ in 2010, nine in 2011 and 10 in 2013.
Morgan, 26, has spent his entire five-year career with the Titans. He has 23 career sacks, including a team-leading 6½ last season. He also had 82 overall tackles and 13 tackles for loss to set career highs in both categories.
Succop was 19 of 22 on field-goal attempts in his first season with the Titans after spending his first five pro years with Kansas City. The 28-year-old Succop has made 81.7 percent of his career field-goal attempts.
Fasano has 253 career catches for 2,799 yards and 31 touchdowns in a nine-year career with Dallas, Miami and Kansas City. The 30-year-old Fasano caught 25 passes for 226 yards and four touchdowns last season. His arrival gives Tennessee more experience and depth at the position to go along with Delanie Walker, who had 63 catches for 890 yards to lead the team in both categories last season.
Klug, 26, has 14½ sacks in a four-year career spent entirely in Tennessee. He had 31 tackles and two sacks last season.
“Fasano is a quality veteran player who has all-around tight end ability,” Webster said. “I thought Succop had a good first season with us, and Klug is just a good football player who can help us in a number of areas.” | {

Hodgson muss hospitalisiert werden – Klinsmann entlassen | Premier League: Hodgson im Spital
Der ehemalige Schweizer Nationaltrainer Roy Hodgson wurde am Donnerstag ins Spital eingeliefert. Der 76-Jährige fühlte sich während einer Trainingseinheit mit dem Premier-League-Klub Crystal Palace unwohl. Details zu den gesundheitlichen Problemen des Engländers gab der Londoner Klub nicht bekannt.
Südkorea: Klinsmann weg
Nach rund einem Jahr im Amt ist Jürgen Klinsmann als Nationaltrainer von Südkorea entlassen worden. Kritische Voten waren zuletzt nach der Niederlage Südkoreas gegen Jordanien im Halbfinal des Asien-Cups laut geworden. Im Laufe des Turniers litt die Popularität Klinsmanns, das scheinbare Weglächeln von Problemen wurde nicht überall goutiert.
Championship: Breitenreiter übernimmt Huddersfield
André Breitenreiter, der Meistertrainer des FC Zürich von 2022, hat einen neuen Klub gefunden. Der Deutsche übernimmt den englischen Zweitligisten Huddersfield Town. Mit seinem neuen Team wird Breitenreiter gegen den Abstieg kämpfen, aktuell trennen Huddersfield 5 Punkte von den Abstiegsrängen. Der 50-Jährige war nach einem erfolglosen Intermezzo bei Hoffenheim seit einem Jahr vereinslos. | {

À moins que les élus ne changent d’avis... ce mercredi.
Le passe rail reste coincé au dépôt. Faute d’un accord sur son financement avec l’ensemble des régions, cet abonnement illimité sur les TER pour les jeunes à 49 euros, promis par Emmanuel Macron, ne devrait pas voir le jour cet été comme prévu. «À moins d’un changement de pied des présidents de région aujourd’hui même, nous ne pouvons pas être opérationnels cet été», a lâché le ministre des Transports Patrice Vergriete sur Franceinfo ce mercredi 3 avril.
L’ambition du passe rail, à l’origine destiné à tous, avait déjà été revue à la baisse en début d’année, après le remaniement, quand il a été décidé de le restreindre aux jeunes. Une décision qui satisfaisait les présidents de régions. Mais ces dernières semaines, les discussions coinçaient autour du financement de cet abonnement.
Une deuxième chance pour 2025
«On a accepté que l’État prenne en charge 80% du coût», estimé à 15 millions d’euros, comme les régions le demandaient, a assuré Patrice Vergriete. Il restait donc «un peu plus de 3 millions à se partager entre régions», soit «pas grand-chose», estime le ministre. Mais Hervé Morin (Normandie), Laurent Wauquiez (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes) et Xavier Bertrand (Hauts-de-France) n’ont pas donné leur accord, a-t-il regretté. «On ne peut pas faire une France en peau de léopard», où le passe rail serait valable dans certaines régions et pas d’autres. D’autant que certains TER sont gérés par plusieurs régions à la fois.
La mise en place technique de ce passe rail nécessite un délai qui rend désormais intenable un déploiement pour l’été 2024, à moins d’un rétropédalage des élus récalcitrants ce mercredi. Mais Patrice Vergriete n’exclut pas de remettre le projet sur de bons rails. «On n’a pas envie de lâcher le morceau», a-t-il martelé, assurant que «la promesse du président de la République tient toujours». «Je le dis aux présidents de régions : travaillons pour 2025.» | {
