Job Retention Scheme: August will be moment of truth
The government’s Job Retention Scheme has, thus far, lived up to its name. Unemployment is rising but mass redundancies have been avoided and businesses have dared to hope that, with the government’s help, they might find a way through this terrible recession. But the cost of the taxpayer support is high and rising towards £100bn. This scheme cannot continue and the chancellor has now set out the details of how it will be withdrawn. Businesses have applauded the decision to allow them to bring back staff part-time from July instead of August. They are also being asked to shoulder a lower share of cost of the scheme than had been expected (or leaked to journalists) but the chancellor is asking them to start paying for it and this creates a reckoning, a moment of truth. From August we will start to find out how many companies can afford to hold onto their staff.

Trump attempts to clarify looting tweet, leaves Rose Garden event without addressing Minneapolis
President Trump on Friday attempted to clean up his recent comments about the protests in Minneapolis that Twitter said violated its rules but surprisingly left a subsequent event without addressing the situation at all. Trump in a late-night tweet commented on the protests in Minneapolis over the death of George Floyd, saying he may have the National Guard "assume control" and writing, "when the looting starts, the shooting starts," a message that Twitter attached a warning label to saying it violated its rules against glorifying violence. On Friday afternoon, Trump claimed that he meant to say that "looting leads to shooting" but that "I don't want this to happen," confusingly adding that this was "spoken as a fact, not as a statement." Looting leads to shooting, and that’s why a man was shot and killed in Minneapolis on Wednesday night - or look at what just happened in Louisville with 7 people shot. I don’t want this to happen, and that’s what the expression put out last night means.... — Donald J. Trump…

Trump 'terminates' U.S. relationship with WHO, blames China for 'covering up' coronavirus spread
President Trump gave a Friday press conference that didn't even touch that day's biggest topic. On Friday, Trump announced that he was withdrawing U.S. support from the World Health Organization, reshuffling America's $450 million annual contribution to the WHO to other health groups. Trump went on to criticize China for allegedly covering up the beginnings of the coronavirus pandemic, and claimed the WHO had allowed that cover-up to happen. While Trump had previously praised China for its "transparency" during the COVID-19 crisis, on Friday he suggested a unfounded conspiracy in which the coronavirus "didn't go to Beijing." Trump then noted that China gives $40 million to the WHO compared to the U.S.'s $450 million, but claimed without proof that the organization is controlled by China. The move leaves the WHO without its largest financial backer, The Associated Press reports. Trump left the conference without taking any questions from the press, which would've presumably been about the ongoing protests in Minneapolis…

In The Number Ones, I'm reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart's beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. *** Joan Jett And The Blackhearts – I Love Rock 'N Roll" HIT #1: March 20, 1982 STAYED AT #1: 7 weeks A hard, deliberate snare roll. A sudden, thunderous power chord. A drum beat that sounds like a stadium full of football fans stomping in unison. And then a voice — strong, androgynous, raspy, distant.

She sounds both bored and annoyed about this particular 17-year-old, but she takes him home anyway. The level of swagger on "I Love Rock 'N Roll" is out of control. The song is so thuddingly simple, so elemental, that it could easily turn hokey and ridiculous. Instead, the opposite happens. The song already sounds totemic by the time

Saya Gray – “SHALLOW (PPL SWIM IN SHALLOW WATER)”
Saya Gray was born into a musical family: Her father is a composer and trumpet player who has worked with the likes of Ella Fitzgerald and Aretha Franklin, and her mother founded Toronto music school Discovery Through The Arts. She spent her childhood developing prodigious bass skills that earned her a gig in R&B upstart Daniel Caesar's band a few years back. Now she's moving into the spotlight with a debut single of her own. Gray's bassist bona fides shine through immediately on "SHALLOW (PPL SWIM IN SHALLOW WATER)," a minimal yet complex track that might give you glimpses of Fiona Apple and Frank Ocean. "I love my enemies 'cause nobody hates myself more than me," Gray sings before pushing her voice into a falsetto squeak. As the music rolls on, textures build and recede, creating a powerful sense of drama without even dropping a beat. Listen below. https://youtu.be/SonEUeXt0LI

Kamaiyah – “Extravagant”
Kamaiyah's going on a run! Earlier this year, after a long wait, the Oakland rapper put out the smooth, underrated album Got It Made. Since then, she hasn't been sitting around. Last week, she released the tough, confident single "Go Crazy." Now, just seven days later, she's got another one that goes just as hard. "Extravagant" — great title — has a beat from "Go Crazy" producer Link Up that leans into the slow-rolling basslines and hard claps that have defined Oakland rap for decades. Over that beat, Kamaiyah goes into singsong nursery-rhyme mode, sing-rapping catchy melodies with an effortless grace. "Extravagant" is the kind of song that, for the couple of minutes that it's playing, makes the world a more pleasant place. The low-budget Damien Sandoval-directed video is just Kamaiyah rapping amidst flashing lights, but it's fun to watch. Check it out below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PS8rDEREmg&feature=em-uploademail "Extravagant" is out now on the streaming platforms.

One of China's most senior generals says that an attack on Taiwan is still an option to stop Taiwanese independence. That was the warning from Li Zuocheng, on Friday (May 29). However, Li Zhanshu, the third-most-senior leader of China’s ruling Communist Party, told the same event that non-peaceful means were an option of last resort. A 2005 law gives China the legal right to take military action against Taiwan, which it considers a Chinese province. And China has never renounced the use of force to bring Taiwan under its control. But such an explicit statement from the military is incredibly rare. Taiwan's government denounced the comments. It said threats of war were a violation of international law, and that Taiwan has never been a part of the People's Republic of China. Taiwan is China's most sensitive territorial issue. Beijing says it's a Chinese province, and it's deeply suspicious of Taiwan president Tsai Ing-wen, who it accuses of being a separatist. The mood in Taiwan towards China has soured further…

GOR vs NEM Dream11 Prediction : Gorodeja Vs Neman Grodno Best Dream 11 Team for Belarus Premier League
GOR Vs NEM Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Our opponents this Friday stand precariously close to the relegation zone Next to each other in the Vysshaya Liga 2020, for 12th and 13th placed Gorodeja and Neman Grodno, today’s clash comes bearing with it colossal ramifications. Anything less than the three points could see the losers slip down into the relegation zone and with it lose colossal ground from their competitors as well.Having played a match less than Gorodeja, a win for Neman Grodno today would see them displace Neman Grodno from 12th spit and make massive strides in the points tally. And after pulling off a scintillating 3-1 win over third placed Torpedo the last time around, the side carry a solid edge for the day’s impending tie with the side inculcated with a hoard of momentum from that maverick showing. Where Neman finally managed to break free of their tedium the last time around, things remained appalling for Gorodeja once again. Held to a 1-1 draw by Mozyr, the side is now…

These airstrikes by the Russian Air Force marked the first time since March that they have launched any aerial attack over Syria.

Why I love sports: Reader responses for Friday, May 29
'Dad is gone' but games keep spirit alive My dad played baseball and basketball when he was in Tribbey High School, and his team won the district championship in 1937, his senior year. His passion for sports continued as he played softball in independent leagues until he was 45 years old. He would take my sister and I to any game that he heard had a good team. He put up a basketball goal on the garage so we could practice shots anytime. I officially started playing basketball in junior high, but I was short so I didn’t make the A team. However, the B team was in a tournament at Macomb at the same time as the A team, so our coach asked my dad to coach us. I made 23 free shots and we won the game.

Neil Finn – “Find Your Way Back Home” (Feat. Stevie Nicks & Christine McVie)
New Zealand rock great Neil Finn, former frontman of both Split Enz and Crowded House, has lately been spending his quarantine by playing charming acoustic covers: David Bowie's "Heroes," Prince's "When Doves Cry." But today, he's released a new song to benefit the Auckland City Mission, which serves the homeless population of Auckland. And in releasing the song, he's teamed up with a couple of his more recent bandmates. In 2018, Fleetwood Mac unceremoniously fired their longtime co-leader Lindsey Buckingham — the sort of acrimonious split that you don't often see in classic rock institutions these days. To replace Buckingham, Fleetwood Mac brought in two ringers: Neil Finn and the former Tom Petty And The Hearbreakers guitarist Mike Campbell. There was plenty of talk about how this new Fleetwood Mac wasn't really Fleetwood Mac, but the band did plenty to showcase both Finn and Campbell, presenting them as full members of the band. They even played Crowded House and Split Enz songs

Letter - Life in quarantine
As Covid-19 continues to spread around the globe, repatriated Namibians, such as myself, are wrestling with the uncomfortable side effect of widespread infectious disease: quarantine. A quarantine is designed to keep high-risk individuals who may have been exposed to the virus in isolation during the disease’s infectious period, to see if they became sick. Since Covid-19’s incubation period is believed to be 14 days or fewer, that is how long the quarantine period has lasted for the Namibians who have since returned home. For some, quarantine is merely inconvenient, or at worst, dull. For others, especially those quarantined without their luggage, like myself, the situation is more precarious.

Did the landlord reasonably accommodate the tenant, entertain any compromise or extension of the lease term, or offer some reduced payment schedule for a month or two or three, or rent abatement for such same time period? Are business owners excused from paying rent during this shutdown? That also depends.

Jewel's music, it turns out, sounds a whole lot different if there's an indie rock dude singing.

RMR – “I’m Not Over You” (Prod. Timbaland)
Back in February, a mysterious masked R&B singer who called himself RMR — apparently pronounced "Rumor" — made a strange and compelling debut with the beautiful, funereal goon-music song "Rascal." It's probably the most fascinating thing that anyone has ever done with a Rascal Flatts hit. Since then, RMR has come out with the follow-up single "Dealer," as well as a remix with Future and Lil Baby. And now he's announced his debut EP and teamed up with one of the all-time great R&B producers for another song. Timbaland produced RMR's new single "I'm Not Over You" — or, rather, he co-produced it with Eminem/Anderson .Paak collaborator Andre Brissett. On the song, RMR returns to the quasi-country heart-wounded lilt of "Rascal," begging and pleading beautifully to an ex. The beat marries explosions of digital bass to a lonely banjo. We few, we happy few who paid money for the deeply underrated Bubba Sparxxx album Deliverance already know that Timbaland has a real gift for mutating

Grimes is selling her soul as part of an online art exhibition called Selling Out.

Amy Klobuchar says she 'did not blow off' police shootings, but regrets how she handled their cases
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) has responded to criticism of her time as Minneapolis' top prosecutor. Before she was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2006, Klobuchar was the Hennepin County attorney in Minnesota, in charge of prosecution for the state's most populous county.

Record drop in U.S. consumer spending as Americans stay home
With U.S. stores shuttered and many Americans stuck at home, U.S. consumer spending plunged by a record 13.6% in April. That's the biggest drop since the government began tracking that data in 1959, and that decline was even deeper than economists had forecast. Consumer spending accounts for more than two-thirds of U.S. economic activity, and that plunge supports expectations that the economy could shrink in the second quarter at its steepest pace since the Great Depression. Spending on healthcare dropped as dental offices closed and hospitals put off elective surgeries. Americans spent less less at restaurants and on hotels. The drop comes despite a surge in personal income. Stimulus checks that the government issued lifted incomes 10.5% last month, rebounding from a drop of over 2% in March when people began to stay at home. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is set to speak in a public webcast Friday, and Wall Street is watching closely to see if he have the Fed restart large-scale purchases of bonds to boost…

Amnesty accuses Ethiopia of severe human rights violations
The security forces of Ethiopia have burned homes to the ground, enraged in extrajudicial executions, rape, arbitrary arrests and detentions, sometimes of entire families in Oromia and Amhara regions of the country, Amnesty said in its report today.

In a new report, Beyond law enforcement: human rights violations by Ethiopian security forces in Amhara and Oromia, Amnesty International documents how security forces committed grave violations between December 2018 and December 2019 despite reforms which led to the release of thousands of detainees, expansion of the civic and political space and repeal of draconian laws, such as the Anti-Terrorism Proclamation, which were previously used to repress human rights.

Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton slam Trump for 'calling for violence against American citizens'
Democratic standard bearers Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton didn't mince words on Friday, slamming the president over tweets that threatened violence against protesters in Minneapolis who are demanding justice after the police killing of George Floyd. President Trump had characterized the protesters as "thugs," writing late Thursday that he refused to "stand back and watch this happen to a great American City." Most controversially, Trump tweeted that "when the looting starts, the shooting starts," prompting Twitter to swiftly attach a label to the tweet that said it "violated" the site's rules "about glorifying violence." On Friday morning, Biden responded by expressing his anger that a black reporter for CNN was arrested by the Minneapolis police while "the white police officer who killed George Floyd remains free," adding "this, to me, says everything." Biden subsequently went after Trump for the threat against protesters: I will not lift the President’s tweet. I will not give him that amplification. But he…

Drakeo had made a huge impact on the LA underground with his weird, sidelong half-muttered flow and with his cutting sense of gallows humor. Right now, though, Drakeo is in jail, awaiting trial for murder — a crime for which he'd already been acquitted. (The critic and journalist has done great work tracking the Drakeo case, an on going and infuriating story.) In recent months, people like Earl Sweatshirt and Danny Brown have helped keep Drakeo's name front-and-center, rapping on remixes of his songs. But now Drakeo has found a new way to release music: Over the jail phone. Next week, Drakeo will release the new mixtape Thank You For Using GTL, 18 tracks of raps from prison. Drakeo used GTL, the telecommunications system for his jail, and worked with producer JoogSzn to record these tracks. Today, he's shared two tracks, "GTA VI" and "Backflip Or Sumn," that'll appear on the tape. On those two songs,

Minnesota police on Friday arrested CNN's Omar Jimenez and his camera crew while he was live on the air reporting on the Minneapolis protests against the death of George Floyd, drawing widespread criticism and an apology from the state's governor. They were soon released from custody. On Twitter, the Minnesota State Patrol weighed in on the incident, saying the reporters were released "once they were confirmed to be members of the media," implying that wasn't previously clear — even though the video shows Jimenez identified himself as a CNN reporter who was broadcasting live on the network and showed his CNN badge. In the course of clearing the streets and restoring order at Lake Street and Snelling Avenue, four people were arrested by State Patrol troopers, including three members of a CNN crew. The three were released once…

Trump's social media executive order could force social media to censor Trump
There are a lot of legal, ethical, political, and constitutional questions about the executive order President Trump signed Thursday purporting to "defend free speech" by regulating social media companies. But there's also a practical one: Is Trump shooting himself in the foot? Trump's executive order targets Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act, a foundational internet law that shields websites like social media companies from liability for most things users post to their sites. If Trump is successful, Twitter, Google, and Facebook "could face legal jeopardy if they allowed false and defamatory posts," Peter Baker and Daisuke Wakabayashi explain at The New York Times. "Without a liability shield, they presumably would have to be more aggressive about policing messages that press the boundaries — like the president's." "Ironically, Donald Trump is a big beneficiary of Section 230," said Kate Ruane at the American Civil Liberties Union. "If platforms were not immune under the law, then they would…

The new rules will also let hunters use artificial light to attract black bears and their cubs, shoot caribou from motorboats, and hunt wolves and coyotes during the denning season, the Anchorage Daily News reports.

This change is "amazingly cruel," Jesse Prentice-Dunn, policy director for the Center for Western Priorities, told The Guardian, and is "just the latest in a string of efforts to reduce protections for America's wildlife at the behest of oil companies and trophy hunters." Several Native American tribes criticized the original rule, opposing it due to rural Alaskans needing wild food sources. Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska) cheered the reversal, saying it was necessary "not only as a matter of principle, but as a…

Post-Lockdown South Africa: The Virus Took Lives, The Lockdown Took Jobs
The virus took lives, the lockdown took jobs When a virus spreads, it often brings hardship as a plus one. And many South Africans are starting to feel the heat. Despite the continued rise in COVID-19 cases which have now exceeded 27,000 in South Africa, the country’s lockdown measures have been eased gradually since May 1, with the aim of ending strife by getting people back to work. But for many South Africans, there’s no work to get back to — not anymore. Apparently, there has been a flurry of job losses since the lockdown measures kicked in. Many people who were gainfully employed when the country shut down found themselves unemployed after the phased restart. South Africa first went into a complete nationwide lockdown on March 26 and businesses began to feel the pressure almost immediately. Despite palliatives and fiscal stimulus from the government, many businesses have been unable to avoid the bloodbath that has seen many workers lose their jobs.

Chauvin was fired as a Minneapolis police officer after he held Floyd down as Floyd protested "I can't breathe." Protests have since broken out around the 3rd Minneapolis Police Precinct — which is just a block away from the El Nuevo Rodeo restaurant and dance club where Chauvin and Floyd once worked security.

Donald Trump 'terminating' relationship with WHO over coronavirus
President Donald Trump has said the US will be terminating its relationship with the World Health Organisation. The president said it had failed to adequately respond to coronavirus because China has "total control" over the global organisation. He said Chinese officials "ignored" their reporting obligations to the WHO and pressured the group to mislead the world when the virus was first discovered. He noted that the US contributes about 450 million US dollars (£360 million) to the world body while China provides about 40 million dollars (£32 million). The US is the largest source of financial support to the WHO and its exit is expected to significantly weaken the organisation. President Trump said the US would be "redirecting" the money to "other worldwide and deserving urgent global public health needs", without providing specifics. The news comes days after WHO announced their decision to temporarily halt trials of hydroxychloroquine as a potential coronavirus treatment, a drug Mr Trump had triumphed.

How GitHub untangled itself from the ‘Octopus’ malware that infected 26 software projects
For GitHub, not all reports about malicious software on its platform are of equal importance. The company behind the popular software repository, where developers often share code rather than building it from scratch, revealed this week that attackers were trying to exploit the open-source nature of the site to distribute malware. A hacking tool was designed to spread through software projects, then leave a “backdoor” that could offer hackers persistent access to the software. By infiltrating open-source software, hackers could have given themselves a foothold in code that was later included in corporate apps or websites. Open-source websites continue to represent valuable targets for hackers hoping that technology companies will adopt compromised tools to build their own software. (GitHub claims the site has tens of millions of users.) In this case, the malicious code — which spread to 26 different GitHub projects — is an example of the potentially insidious nature of open-source supply chain compromises. Dubbed…

RBZ cuts Zipit transaction limits
THE Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ)’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) has directed all banks to review downwards Zipit transaction limits to ZWL$20 000 a day from ZWL$100 000 following abuse of the facility by illicit foreign currency dealers. In a statement yesterday the Apex bank unit said it has directed Zimswitch, which operates the Zipit platform to immediately implement the new position. “The FIU has noted that the existing Zipit transaction limits, which have no monthly cap are being misused, primarily for illicit foreign currency transactions. “The current Zipit limits of ZWL$100 000 per day allow a customer (subject to any bank-specific limits) to move about ZWL$3 million per month, using a single account and much more if he or she is multi-banked and/or uses third party accounts,” said the FIU. It said the above limits have been reached on account that “very few” individuals in the country earn over ZWL$100 000 a day.

Shameful
Dear Editor, It was disturbing that a cop in Uttarakhand allegedly tried to rape a woman at a quarantine centre. The Surajmal Institute located in Pulbhatta has been turned into a quarantine centre, where people coming to the area, are being asked to stay. Among the inmates of the quarantine centre is a newly-wed couple. Allegedly, the policeman went to the newly-wed couple's room located on the second floor. After reaching there, the accused grabbed the woman's hand and started taking her to a room located on the first floor. As per the police complaint, the accused was inebriated when the incident took place. However, it is an obvious misbehaviour of policeman. It is extremely condemnable, specially when it was committed by a person, who is responsible for safety of people. His misbehaviour not only stigmatized his family, but also defamed the group of security forces. Culprit must be punished. --M N Musaeed Jogeshwari Mumbai

Born in Cork in 1945, Tony’s father, Tom, was a professional goalkeeper and represented the Republic of Ireland at international level. Tony’s life took a different path though, starting with a five-year stint on guard duty in the Royal Air Force. Advertisement He then embarked on an acting career and in 1984 landed the role that would come to define him as DS Ted Roach on the long-running UK police drama The Bill. Something of a fan favourite, he spent nine years on the show before departing the series in 1993, though he did make a series of guest appearances in 2000. He also appeared in the cult sci-fi film adaptation of Flash Gordon alongside Max von Sydow. Tony Scannell as Ted Roach on 'The Bill' The Facebook tribute to Mr Scannell read: “Damn, damn, damn!

Sony says after July 13th, new PS4 games must be PS5 compatible
According to a report from Eurogamer, Sony has begun telling PlayStation 4 developers to prepare for the launch of the PlayStation 5 in a big new way. Starting on July 13th, games submitted for certification on PlayStation 4 must be compatible with PlayStation 5. This news comes by way of developer documentation apparently posted on PlayStation's internal partner website, that Eurogamer got its hands on. Apparently developers are able to use their PS4 devkits to perform this check, thanks to an update released in April. The documentation also apparently states that "compatibility" means that the submission code runs without issues on the PlayStation 5, and provides the same features on PS5 as PS4. Developers who submit for certification before July 13th are apparently "strongly recommended" to prepare PS5 compatibility as well.

School districts struggle with student food insecurity
SACRAMENTO (INT) - Food insecurityeither concerns around having enough food or outright hungerhas increased sharply across California. Nationally, among children age 12 and under, the rate is up 14 pointsfrom about 3% in 2018 to 17% in April 2020. During the ongoing COVID-19 school closures, even large districts appear to be serving fewer free and low-cost meals than before the pandemic, while rural or small districts face their own challenges in reaching students. Typically about 3.7 million California students, or 60%, qualify for free or reduced-price meals, a number that likely shot up under shelter-in-place orders. When classes are in session, these students may receive most of their food at school. Since schools closed in March, districts have set up more than 4,700 grab-and-go sites to continue providing meals to students, the Public Policy Institute of California found. Many districts provide meals to everyone under the age of 18. San Diego Unified is distributing one extra breakfast and lunch to…

Longer lines for rides, and no parade: Theme parks to open, but will visitors return?
Mickey Mouse and Cinderella are back to rescue your summer, but there wont be any hugs, and no parade, either. Over the next two months, some of the nations biggest theme parks will be opening their gates to the public again. The coronavirus pandemic forced parks to close in March, leading to billions of dollars in lost revenue for major operators such as Disney and Universal. Now, theme parks are dipping a toe in the water, opening to limited capacity and executing a complicated plan to accommodate reservations, while trying to return furloughed employees and train them on a host of new procedures. Universal Orlando opens its doors to the public on June 5, SeaWorld on June 11, and by mid-July Disneys parks will welcome thousands of vacationers, though Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis still has to give final approval. Theme park operators have spent months racking their brains, consulting with health experts, and examining data models on how to reduce crowd size and mitigate health risks. All of that adds up to a…

COMMENT: New forex retention ratio for gold miners should spur them on
The gold mining industry got what it had been calling for when on Tuesday, the Government increased the foreign currency portion the miners retain after selling the metal to Fidelity Printers and Refiners (FPR). Gold is the country’s top foreign currency earner but for years the hard currency earnings had not been cascading in satisfactory amounts down to those who really generate it. They had been complaining that much of the equipment they need to produce optimally is imported, thus has to be paid for in foreign currency which they didn’t have. It indeed was ironic that having worked so hard to produce the country’s biggest foreign currency earner, the miners didn’t have the foreign currency themselves. They had to queue for long periods for the cash at the Reserve Bank like everyone else, including those that don’t generate any hard currency. Often, the gold miners failed to get it. Their businesses suffered as a result. But their sustained lobby bore fruit on Tuesday. FPR increased the retention threshold…

Religious Places should be reopened Karnatka CM said
Dear Editor,Karnataka is likely to allow religious places like Temple, Mosques, Churches, and other religious institutions which have been shut for the last two months because of the fourth phase of the Covid-19 lockdown, to reopen in the state after May 31, Karnatka CM BS Yediyurappa said on 26 May. It is well-move step that I gree with. Because praying is also necessary to fight against Covid-19. But now the ball in PM's court. As CM Yodiyurappa added that they will wail for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's dicision over its re-opening. However, if we get permission, places of worship can open by June 31. So my personal opinion is that temples systematically should be reopen only for the time of prayer, with full precaution and maintaining social distancing, wearing masks and hygiene in mind. And also religious fairs and functions totally should be banned. Nobody should be allowed to violate the guidelines set bt the state or centre government. --Belal Shafiq Qasmi

Dear Editor, Misleading of Centre has rattled the stranded people. The sudden countywide lockdown, which was imposed by Prime Minister Modi on March 24, without proper preparation, has brought about many difficulties, and pushed migrants into sever events, in which they are victims.

Job losses hit less-educated hardest
SAN FRANCISCO - (INT) - The COVID-19 recession has already led to much larger declines in employment than occurred throughout the Great Recession, and jobs have been lost much more quickly. As with past recessions, less-educated workers are bearing the brunt of these declines. Nationwide, almost 20 million workers lost jobs between February and April this year (among adults age 25 and over). Employment declined by about 7 million over a much longer period during the Great Recession.

After the Great Recession, employment growth among educated workers was robust, but employment among less-educated workers never fully recovered. Employment among college graduates is much higher today (by about 11 million) than at the economic peak prior to the Great Recession. In contrast, employment among less…

Cocooning Offaly farmer strikes up unlikely friendship with wild fox during lockdown
AN IRISH farmer has struck up a surprising new friendship with a wild fox during lockdown. Farmers and foxes have, historically speaking, never really seen eye to eye. That certainly used to be the case for retired dairy farmer Tony Bergin. But things changed just over two months ago when the 90-year-old was ordered to stay indoors at his home near Roscrea as part of the government’s strict measures for halting the spread of coronavirus. Lockdown has proven a trying time for everyone, especially those forced to cocoon at home away from their immediate family and friends. Advertisement Tony, however, soon found himself in good company, as RTE reports. At some point during those early, uncertain, weeks a wild fox began paying him regular visits. Over time, an understanding and, eventually, friendship developed between the pair. Now, most evenings after dinner, the 90-year-old heads out to his yard to catch up with his pal. After a few whistles, Tony is able to coax his furry companion out for a bite to eat. The…

Understanding court cases and their settlement
"It would be best if settlement is pursued and achieved without the needless filing of court cases." Substantive laws and the Rules of Court are passed with policies to allow aggrieved individuals, juridical entities, and entities authorized by the law to institute actions to vindicate rights violated or seek redress for breach of rights from the court. The aggrieved may file civil or criminal actions: civil actions are commenced for the protection of a right or prevention of a wrong (Section 3 (a), Rule 1 of the Rules of Civil Procedure) while criminal actions are initiated by the State to prosecute an offender for an act or omission punishable by law (Section 3 (b), Rule 1 of the Rules of Civil Procedure). There is another type of action which is loosely treated in practice as civil actions since it seeks no penal sanction but is a remedy sought by a litigant to establish a status, a right, or a particular fact – these are known as special proceedings (Section 3 (c), Rule 1 of the Rules of Court).

Covid-19’s Attempt To Snuff Out African Tobacco Is Going Up In Flames
At the end of March, South Africa had imposed the most severe and controversial lockdown in Africa.

Developing Africa has become an attractive market for the tobacco industry due to its increases in its income, growing population size, foreign direct investment (FDI), and improved life expectancy. A Ban That Backfired South Africa plans to ease its nationwide lockdown as from June 1, allowing limited alcohol sales and the reopening of bars. But, the government does not show signs of lifting the ban on tobacco products like vapes and snus.

The Limits of Extreme COVID Monetary Policy
By Paola Subacchi LONDON – With output having collapsed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, many are wondering how far monetary policy can be stretched to support the economy. For the US Federal Reserve, negative interest rates appear to represent an effective limit, not because such a policy is technically unfeasible, but because it would be politically unacceptable. Yet for the European Central Bank, the Bank of England, and the Bank of Japan, there appears to be no limit. The ECB has long since cut rates into negative territory, and BOE Governor Andrew Bailey is reportedly “looking very carefully” at that option for the United Kingdom. Likewise, BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda, while deeming the BOJ’s current policy mix appropriate for current conditions, has not ruled out further monetary easing or another increase in asset purchases. The question is whether it makes sense to go further down the road of extreme monetary policy. Former ECB President Mario Draghi’s famous promise to do “whatever it takes” to…

Obama issues powerful statement on the death of George Floyd: 'This shouldn't be 'normal''
Former President Barack Obama issued a statement on Friday reflecting on "conversations I've had with friends over the past couple days about the footage of George Floyd dying face down on the street under the knee of a police officer in Minnesota." In the statement, Obama explained that it's "natural to wish for life to 'just get back to normal'" during the pandemic but that "we have to remember that for millions of Americans, being treated differently on account of race is tragically, painfully, maddeningly 'normal' — whether it's while dealing with the health care system, or interacting with the criminal justice system, or jogging down the street, or just watching birds in the park." Obama's comment referenced other recent high-profile instances of brutality and racism this year, including the shooting of 25-year-old jogger Ahmaud Arbery by white residents of southern Georgia in February, and Christian Cooper, who this week recorded a viral video of a white woman in Central Park calling the police on him after…

St. Paul police once used Disney's Zootopia as part of annual anti-bias training
Disney's story of a rabbit and a fox recognizing and overcoming police bias was apparently used to educate human police officers.

She's placed on parking duty and doubted because of her species, but also discriminates against a fox con artist because of his, with nods to human race relations — the fox plays with a sheep's "hair," for instance — along the way. "When you see the story, it has bias and prejudice woven throughout," Hua said at the…

The report describes how Jenner publicists showed Forbes tax returns demonstrating the unbelievable growth of her company, Kylie Cosmetics, and showing $307 million in revenue in 2016. The documents were apparently a little too unbelievable, in fact; the outlet describes the numbers the Jenners provided as "hard to believe" and writes that filings later showed there's "virtually no way" they were accurate.

As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) continues to keep families at home, parents and children get to spend more time with each other. This creates both challenges and opportunities and many have to do with how to manage children’s screen time. TV host and author Daphne Oseña-Paez has been more hands-on with her three daughters since the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) was implemented.

Since the first case of Covid-19 was reported in the Great Lakes region in mid-March 2020, small scale traders have been unable to cross borders as they have traditionally done either to buy or sell goods. The regional supply of primary agricultural commodities, most of which are traded under the Simplified Trade Regime (STR), especially foodstuffs from surplus to deficit areas has also been disrupted by the long delays at borders as truck drivers wait to be tested for Covid-19 before crossing.

COMESA: 630 million people living without electricity
COMESA region currently has the lowest electricity generation with approximately 630 million people living without reliable access to electricity and 790 million people forced to rely on solid biomass to cook their food and heat their homes.

I used to work in a Motel about 300,000 years ago when I was a youngin, all kinds of weird stuff goes on in motels. If you all knew what went on in some of those places you might not ever stay in one. I have only stayed in a couple my entire life. Thank God for maids who change the sheets and pillowcases, you never know what you're laying your head on. Sometimes people would rent rooms and have huge parties in them, they would make all kinds of noise and after warning them several times to "Keep it quiet." In many cases they would have to be evicted. Most of them kept the noise up and didn't care. I could have evicted them on my own had I been drinking but regarding business, we had to act professional so in many cases, we had to call the police to stand by while we evicted them. Usually only then with the police standing by would they leave.

Last year, the Chicago sing-rapper Juice WRLD died of an accidental overdose at the tragically young age of 21.

The posthumous Juice WRLD single "Righteous" came out last month, and Juice's voice has appeared on collaborations with Eminem, Polo G, and G Herbo. Today, another Juice WRLD single is out in the world. "Tell Me U Luv Me" is both a love song and a plea for help.

The song pairs Juice with Ohio's Trippie Redd, another Midwestern sing-rapper who came up on the SoundCloud-rap wave. It's got a skittery, guitar-based beat from producers oktanner and Juice's regular collaborator Nick Mira. And while there's plenty of emo-style singing on the track, which Juice reportedly performed
