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 This scheme cannot continue and the chancellor has now set out the details of how it will be withdrawn.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.
