The Cranberries' hit 'Zombie' named among list of Spotify's 'Top 50 Lockdown Songs'
THE CRANBERRIES’ iconic hit Zombie has been named on a list of the Top 50 most popular songs to listen to during lockdown. A total of 500 public Spotify lockdown playlists have been analysed as part of research commissioned by Delight Counselling, with some 31,562 songs sorted through as part of the study. Interestingly, the findings showed that 70% of the top 50 artists were male, 24% were female and just 6% were bands with both male and females. The Cranberries were among the latter, with the band’s 1994 hit Zombie coming in at a credible 17th on the countdown. The top 50 songs have ranked by the number of times they appeared in the public playlists. Advertisement In some instances, some songs appeared the same number of times, this resulted in a tie. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Bee Gees topped the list with their disco hit Stayin’ Alive, which featured on no fewer than 44 different lockdown playlists. Aside from The Cranberries, however, there was little in the way of an Irish presence on the list with the…
Gardai come to the rescue of Dublin fox found trapped in fencing during routine patrol
GARDAI CAME to the rescue of a stricken fox in Dublin over the weekend. While Garda officers are no strangers to people getting themselves into all kinds of bother on a night out, animals are an altogether different story. As a rule, foxes tend to keep well clear of humans – there’s a fair bit of history between the two sides. However, that wasn’t an option for one stricken Reynard over in Ballyfermot, Dublin. It was during a routine patrol of the area that officers were alerted to the animal’s plight. Advertisement Upon closer inspection, they found a fox completely stuck in a bit of metal fencing close to the roadside. The animal appeared to be in some distress too and, try as he might, was unable to get himself free. Thankfully, Gardai were on hand to deal with the situation. Recent weeks have seen the officers tasked with any number of duties aimed at helping people in the wider community and lifting spirits as a whole. This particular incident may have differed slightly, but the officers involved nevertheless…
Tributes paid as Liverpool’s Bishop Malone succumbs to Covid-19
BISHOP Vincent Malone, the auxiliary bishop of Liverpool Archdiocese, has died after contracting coronavirus. He was admitted to the Royal Liverpool Hospital earlier this month but died on Monday, May 18. Tributes have been paid to the bishop, who was born in Liverpool. Cardinal Vincent Nichols, the leading Catholic prelate in England and Wales, lived alongside the bishop in the city "as a fairly young priest". He described Bishop Malone as having "endless patience" in his parish and ecclesiastical work, and always showing "unfailing courtesy with every person he met". The Archbishop of Liverpool Malcolm McMahon spoke of Bishop Malone’s “massive contribution to the life of the local church”. Advertisement A statement from the Archdiocese of Liverpool added: "It is with great sadness that the death is announced of the Right Reverend Vincent Malone, Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus of Liverpool and Titular Bishop of Abora. May he rest in peace." The bishop, ordained a priest in 1955, held many high posts, both academic…
Restarting public Masses early would ‘suffering and loss of life'
ANY REINSTATEMENT of public Masses ahead of schedule would be “grossly irresponsible”, a group representing Catholic Priests in Ireland has warned. Under the current government guidelines, public Masses are due to be reinstated on July 20, provided COVID-19 cases numbers in Ireland continue to decline. However, there have been calls among certain religious groups for Masses to be exempt from these rules and reopened earlier than planned. The Association of Catholic Priests (ACP), which represents more than 1,000 priests across Ireland, has condemned calls for public masses to be reinstated ahead of, warning that any early restart would “lead to loss of life”. In a statement issued over the weekend, the ACP hit out at those pushing for any early reopenings as "promoting their own self-serving and self-interested agendas". “In these circumstances, leaders in Irish society – not least the leaders of the Christian churches – will be expected to give a robust and responsible example,” the ACP said.

Irish nurse turned MP calls for joined-up healthcare approach to pandemic
AN IRISH MP who returned to nursing to support the battle against Covid-19 believes health and social care must become “one united front” to overcome the virus. Maria Caulfield, the Conservative MP for Lewes, returned to the NHS in March as a cancer nurse treating patients with Covid-19 at the Royal Marsden Hospital in Brompton. She had answered the appeal by Health Secretary Matt Hancock for former doctors and nurses to help support medical efforts during the coronavirus outbreak. Ms Caulfield, who was born in Wandsworth, London in 1973, to parents who came to Britain in the 1950s from counties Longford and Cork, has seen first-hand the need for a ‘joined-up’ social welfare system that would see both care homes and hospitals working in tandem. She told The Irish Post: “When the coronavirus crisis first hit, it was clear the NHS was going to come under huge pressure. Advertisement “I wanted to do my bit to help out. I still had my nursing registration and so I returned to my old hospital working on the wards.…
'Our clubs may not survive' Calls for support fund to protect Irish sports organisations during pandemic
CONCERNS for the future of sporting organisations across Ireland have led to the call for a support fund to be established to see them through the coronavirus pandemic. The Federation of Irish Sport has called on the Government to create a Resilience Fund and set up a task force to ensure “the survival and reignition of sport organisations nationwide”. The Federation, whose members include the 81 National Governing Bodies and 29 Local Sports Partnerships that organise sport and physical activity in Ireland, issued a statement on behalf of those members this week - claiming the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic have been devastating for them. “There has been no organised sport in Ireland for 10 weeks,” they said. “The stark reality is that the knock-on effects of Covid-19 financially for all sports organisations in the country are devastating.” Advertisement They explained: “Within the last week, we have seen a number of our major team sports talk publicly of losses up to 70 per cent of their turnover. “Unfortunately…
Footage of Leo Varadkar meeting friends and enjoying sun in Phoenix Park during lockdown sparks fury online
LEO VARADKAR has denied any breach of Ireland’s COVID-19 restrictions after pictures surfaced on social media of the Taoiseach meeting up with friends in Phoenix Park. Mr. Varadkar was photographed enjoying the sunshine with his partner Matthew Barrett and two other friends in the popular Dublin Park. Gardai can be seen walking near Mr. Varadkar’s group but do not appear to have been deployed to assist or support the Taoiseach in any way. The images, which were captured this past Sunday afternoon, have sparked debate online over whether the Taoiseach is in breach of the social distancing rules in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Under the government rules, groups of four are permitted to meet outside. Advertisement However, they are restricted from travelling further than 5km from their homes and groups must remain two metres apart from anyone they are not currently residing with. Phoenix Park is roughly eight kilometres from Mr. Varadkar’s apartment on Carpenterstown Road in the Dublin West constituency.…

COVID-19 patients treated with convalescent plasma
LOMA LINDA (INT) - Loma Linda University Health is currently treating eligible patients battling severe novel coronavirus (COVID-19) with convalescent plasma in hopes of boosting their ability to fight the virus. The patients are treated while in the hospital through a transfusion of serum containing virus-neutralizing antibodies, which were removed from a recovered individuals donated blood. Tait Stevens, MD, president of medical staff at Loma Linda University Medical Center, said some evidence shows that patients currently suffering from COVID-19 recover better if they receive plasma from those who have previously recovered. Stevens cited a study published in April that showed encouraging results from 10 severe adult cases who received the convalescent plasma, maintained or increased the antibodies and went on to recover.

Memorial Day: Stay-home orders present challenges for veterans
SAN DIEGO - Stay-at-home orders enacted nationwide in March were seen as necessary, if unprecedented, as the spread of the novel coronavirus threatened to overwhelm hospitals. However, the wide societal shutdown also disrupted the support systems and coping routines of many veterans living with physical and mental health challenges, according to experts and veterans organizations. Stress and isolation are major issues - for some, those conditions can lead to thoughts of suicide. Dr. Neal Doran, who manages the suicide prevention team for the San Diego Veterans Affairs Healthcare System, said stress within the home and the loss of a work routine can be challenging for people living with mental health issues, including post-traumatic stress disorder. "One big piece of it is not being able to get away from any disagreement (in the home)," he said. "There's no opportunity to step away and go do something else. Everybody's routine is disrupted."

California faith-based organizations given go-ahead to open places of worship

That could limit attendance at so-called mega-churches, but allow for reopening others with smaller congregations. Other guidelines issued by the state include: Conduct individual forehead temperature checks Strongly consider discontinuing singing or group recitations Implement social distancing measures Consider outside services Discourage sharing of items, handholding, touching or kissing of relics Disinfect common areas Consider disposable seat covers Install hand sanitizer dispensers Church leaders are urged to continue online services and activities, especially for the protection of those who are most at risk from COVID-19, including older…
Pain wrenched Cheri Armstrong from her slumber. "I just shot up out of bed"
SEATTLE - Pain wrenched Cheri Armstrong from her slumber. "I just shot up out of bed," said Armstrong, 69. "It wouldn't go away." She thought the squeeze radiating between her shoulders was a muscle cramp. She twisted, walked and paced for about five minutes before it subsided. Her husband, Richard Armstrong, urged her that April Saturday to go to the emergency room. "The last place I'm going is a COVID-19 hospital," Cheri Armstrong remembers telling him. The pain receded, only to spike sporadically over the next days - twinges of tightness. By Monday evening, though, it had worsened and migrated to her jaw. "We're going to the emergency room," Richard said. Doctors soon whisked her through tests and delivered the news Cheri suspected: She had suffered a heart attack. "Her artery was about 99% blocked," said Dr. Daniel Guerra, a cardiologist at MultiCare Pulse Heart Institute in Tacoma. "She was lucky she didn't have a big heart attack." Armstrong's story illustrates a growing concern. Beginning in March, public…
Waning days of May generate summer-like heat
SOUTHLAND - (INT) - A strong ridge of high pressure is building over California giving the Southland some pre-summer temperatures this week. The highest numbers will bring an Excessive Heat Warning to the deserts through Friday where highs in the Coachella Valley could approach 110. Triple digits are likely across the inland valleys. There is a sharp thermal transition between the deserts and the coast where a strong inversion may lead to some May Gray. A sea breeze and a shallow marine layer will cover the beaches. By Friday, look for a cut-off low to approach the coast helping to flatten the intense high pressure ridge. That should help spread cooling inland.

‘Report border jumpers to fight Covid-19’
BULAWAYO residents should report to authorities anyone who entered the country illegally from neighbouring countries so that they are taken to isolation centres to prevent the spread of Covid-19. This stance will help curb the spread of Covid-19 as the city is working on flattening the curve. Speaking during a donation to the city yesterday, Dr Edwin Sibanda the director of Health Services said compliance to lockdown regulations was low in Bulawayo which was a cause for concern. “The issue of border jumping has come to our attention and it is the duty of every resident to report such. We urge residents to notify us whenever they receive border jumping relatives as anyone who comes into the country must undergo isolation according to law,” said Dr Sibanda. “We are not aware of their whereabouts hence we cannot follow them up hence we rely on residents to help us fight the spread of Covid-19. They should go to our holding centres for 21 centres and be tested so that we map a way forward.”
Regional lockdowns frustrate Zimplow exports
AGRO-industrial concern, Zimplow Holdings Limited, says its export business suffered a 64 percent decline in the first quarter of the year as governments across the region implemented measures to combat the spread of Covid-19.

As part of a host of measures to stop the spread of the pandemic as prescribed by the World Health Organisation, governments the world over have embarked on national lockdowns. In its trading update for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, Zimplow said its export business has not been spared from the negative “The export business experienced a 64 percent drop compared to prior year as a result of measures taken by regional governments to manage the spread of the novel coronavirus (Covid-19).
Entembeni fails to provide food, medicines
ENTEMBENI Old People’s Home has hit hard times resulting in the institution failing to provide food and critical medical supplies for elderly inmates suffering from the chronic hypertension and diabetes. The home, situated in Luveve suburb in Bulawayo, is also in dire need of blankets for the 48 inmates who are struggling to adhere to lockdown conditions due to a shortage of masks and sanitisers. Their administrator Ms Naome Mhlanga said all inmates, 38 males and 10 females have hypertension and 10 of them have diabetes. A survey conducted by the Chronicle recently showed that chronic patients are defaulting on essential medication as most pharmacies are demanding payment in foreign currency while those paying in local currency are made to pay more than even the prevailing black-market rate. People with chronic illnesses are supposed to regularly take certain medication for a life time to reduce their risk of succumbing to the diseases and the situation is worse for the elderly at Entumbane who live off donations.
COMMENT: Africa should look at building lasting peace, wealth for its people
Today marks the 57th anniversary of Africa Day. Africa Day is celebrated across the continent, but more so in Ghana, The Gambia, Guinea, Namibia, Zambia, Mali, Mauritania, Lesotho and Zimbabwe, where it is observed as an official national holiday. This important day was born in 1963 when 32 independent African states signed a founding charter in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, under the auspices of the newly formed Organisation of African Unity (OAU). The initial process, however, began in 1958 when 17 African nations established African Liberation Day, to commemorate their independence from European colonialism. In 2001, the OAU became the African Union (AU). Due to the impact of the global Covid-19 pandemic, the AU has said this year’s celebrations be held virtually and online under the theme: “Silencing The Guns: Creating Conducive Conditions for Africa’s Development and Intensifying the Fight against the Covid-19 Pandemic.”
‘Barbourfields Stadium must be demolished’
BULAWAYO City Council has to completely demolish Barbourfields Stadium and reconstruct it for the facility to meet international standards as per Caf recommendations, a senior council official has said. The official said some of the recommendations by the two-man Caf inspection team made up of South African football legend Mark Fish and Orlando Pirates general manager Derek Blackensee needed huge structural alterations. “The council has done most of the recommendations that include installation of televisions, fridges, medical equipment, media centre and conference rooms. All that has been spruced up and we also did work on the dressing rooms, but the Caf fellows said they were too small so for the city to meet those expected standards, it literally means demolishing Barbourfields Stadium, especially the VIP end. “You must remember that the stadium was built in the 1930s, but started taking shape around 1956, so for us to compare such a facility with South African stadiums that were built or worked on in preparation…

Bosso fans challenged as NetOne cuts short ties
HIGHLANDERS face financial morass following the announcement by principal sponsors NetOne of its intent to cut short their relationship that was meant to end next year. The mobile telecoms company was paying salaries of Highlanders’ players and technical staff, as well as accommodation and transport costs for their away matches, with the club only taking care of winning bonuses and home games camping needs. But even with the NetOne assistance, Highlanders found themselves struggling to break even with the junior structures in a state of neglect. Bosso lost their junior coaches, who quit for greener pastures. The mere fact that NetOne is now pulling the plug is a worrying development to the Highlanders’ members and fans, not to mention the executive led by Kenneth Mhlophe, who are now expected to show their leadership ingenuity by keeping the club afloat, if no corporate partner comes on board.
Closed gallery undergoes revamp
RENOVATIONS at the National Gallery of Zimbabwe in Bulawayo have commenced so that when lockdown restrictions are lifted the institution will be ready to receive visitors. The renovations financed by grants from the Embassies of Australia, Switzerland and Sweden were put on hold on March 30 when the gallery was closed in order to curb the spread of Covid-19. The gallery’s director, Butholezwe Kgosi Nyathi, said when the measures were relaxed, they started work again two weeks ago. “We have lost a total of seven weeks and these need to be recouped. As the gallery isn’t open, we are working on quality control so that when it is opened everything is ready. We are adhering to strict in-house protocols of social distancing, wearing of masks and regular sanitisation of people,” Nyathi said. What was being worked on Nyathi said included the installation of a disability ramp at the entrance and fixing of the ceiling and roof.
Smugglers expose communities to Covid-19
SMUGGLING syndicates have turned illegal crossing points dotted along the Limpopo River into permanent camping sites where huge consignments of goods worth millions of dollars are illegally brought in and out of the country daily, exposing communities living along the Zimbabwe-South Africa border to Covid-19. The smugglers use hired inflatable boats to ferry the smuggled goods across the river to either side of the border for varying fees ranging from R150 to R500 depending on the weight of the load. Several people, mostly regular cross border traders who make a living out of buying and selling goods sourced from South Africa, are the main culprits. They are defying lockdown regulations by illegally crossing the border, raising concerns of the spread of the coronavirus in areas lying along the border. The smugglers do not even take extra precautions to curb the spread of Covid-19 such as wearing face masks and sanitising. South Africa has the highest number of Covid-19 cases in Africa.

15 glorious old photographs of Birmingham seen in colour
If you’re a history buff, one of the things you may have noticed while in lockdown is all the people who are experimenting with the various apps you can find for computer or smartphone which will colourise old photos. Far be it from us to see a bandwagon rumbling past without clambering on, so we’ve taken a few old pictures of Birmingham and put them through a number of these programs. The results are sometimes impressive, sometimes less so. Most end up looking like those hand-coloured postcards that people used to buy in the early 20th century. But either way, they do give us a small insight into life from the past, at least now in colour.

What information is coded in bird alarm calls -- a new study from Korea
Recordings of the Oriental tit's alarm responses showed that alarm calls to snakes have special acoustic properties different from calls to chipmunks, even though both predators can enter bird's nests and destroy broods. Nestlings escaped from nests (and from the snake) when they heard a recording of the ''snake call'' but not ''chipmunk call'' by parents. This suggests that the calls do not carry information about predator's ability to enter the nest cavity, and that snakes are ''special'' predators.
Title: Two-dimensional MXene as a novel electrode material for next-generation display

Nature & You: A fruitful protein dinner for hummingbirds
I always get a chuckle out of Anthony Oettinger's famous jingle: "Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana."

I am here today to give you instructions on how to convert a "minus" into a "plus." The trick is simple enough: Take those old, over-ripe bananas outside. Put them on top of an old plate, dish or pan. You'll want to suspend the contraption with stout string or cord such that night-prowling raccoons and opossums cannot gain entry to these tasty treats. You'll need to use a small scrap of small-mesh hardware cloth (i.e., "hail screen") to act as a shield to keep honeybees and paper wasps
Eddie Sutton's legacy at Oklahoma State: Excellence was possible for Cowboys
In the final OSU basketball season before the Eddie Sutton era, the Cowboys’ home opener was against Memphis. A crowd of 6,381 showed up. If that number sounds familiar, it should. That was the capacity of Gallagher-Iba Arena before its 2000 makeover. Leonard Hamilton’s final OSU team played to a bunch of packed houses, even when the talented roster struggled, finishing with a 17-14 record. Soon enough, of course, Sutton was the coach, the Cowboys were winning big and Gallagher-Iba was the “rowdiest arena in the nation,” in the words of public-address announcer Larry Reece. Sutton died Saturday at the age of 84; no Cowboy ever stood taller with the OSU throngs.

"Fraud is certainly a crime, but I feel it is just as criminal an act to not perform the civic responsibilities of the services entrusted to us," Moore wrote in the email Thursday to the director of another state agency, the Office of Management and Enterprise Services. "I do not know how to move forward and help Oklahomans without business process and leadership change.

Skocic better coach than Wilmots: Azmoun
Tehran Times – TEHRAN, Iran national football team forward Sardar Azmoun believes that Dragan Skocic can help Iran qualify for the 2022 World Cup since he is a better coach than Marc Wilmots. The Croatian coach replaced Wilmots in early February after the Belgian left Iran for his unpaid salary. Iran have a tough task ahead at the 2022 World Cup qualification after suffering two defeats against Bahrain and Iraq under coaching of Wilmots. After back-to-back appearances in 2014 and 2018, the aim now is to secure a third consecutive participation for the first time. Iran have reached the World Cup on five occasions. The Persians sit third, five points behind Iraq in in Group C. “I think we can book our place at the 2022 World Cup because Skocic is a better coach than Wilmots,” Azmoun said in an interview with Iran’s state-run TV. “We talked to each other before the Coronavirus outbreak and I understood he has a winning spirit. It’s a pity that Iran sit behind Iraq and Bahrain in the table. I hope we return to top…

Taylor Swift Makes Fake Band To Re-Record “Look What You Made Me Do” For Killing Eve
Last night's episode of Killing Eve featured of a cover of Taylor Swift's Reputation track "Look What You Made Me Do" playing over the opening credits. Swift quickly tweeted out a clip from the show after it aired, noting that the cover was done by a band called Jack Leopards & The Dolphin Club. Jack Leopards & The Dolphin Club is not a real band (shocking!), but instead appears to be an alias for Swift and her new camp. As some Swifties have dug up, the credits on the new cover — which is available on streaming services — include a production credit by none other than Nils Sjöberg, the pseudonym that Swift used when she co-wrote her ex Calvin Harris' hit "This Is What You Came For." A few months ago, the tabloid The Daily Mail published an article that planted the seed: Swift apparently "begged" Killing Eve executive producer Phoebe Waller-Bridge to have her brother Austin sing a song for the show's soundtrack. It appears that the cover art for the "Look What You Made Me Do" single

Strategic M-4 Highway reopened in Syria for first time in years: video
BEIRUT, LEBANON (2:25 P.M.) – On Monday, the M-4 Highway (Aleppo-Hasakah) was officially reopened between the cities of Al-Hasakah and Aleppo, the Russian reconciliation center reported. This road, which has approximately 80 km of it under the control of the Syrian factions loyal to Turkey, is opened for commercial use and has the safety guarantee of the Russian and Turkish armed forces. A senior Russian military official at the Qamishli International Airport told RT Arabic earlier that there will be Russian patrols every day except Friday, to track the movements along the road and prevent any military provocations there. According to the official, there will be joint coordination with the civil administration in the town of Tal Tamr, and any military manifestations of the various forces will be prevented on the road. This is a major event for the people of Syria, as northeastern Syria was mostly cutoff due to years of war and the presence of groups against the government.

Jimmy Cobb, Who Drummed On Kind Of Blue, Dead At 91
The legendary jazz drummer Jimmy Cobb has died at 91. As NPR reports, the cause of death was lung cancer. Cobb was part of Miles Davis' First Great Sextet. He was the last surviving member of the band that played on Davis' landmark Kind Of Blue. He was born Wilbur James Cobb in 1929 and grew up in Washington, DC. At age 13, he bought his first drum set with money that he earned as a busboy. He was primarily self-taught, and he moved to New York City when he was 21 and started playing with vocalist Dinah Washington. From there, he'd link up with Cannonball and Nat Adderley, and it was through them that he met Davis. In addition to playing on Kind Of Blue, he would record a few other albums with Davis, including Sketches Of Spain and Someday My Prince Will Come, before leaving the band in the 1960s and leading a trio with fellow former Davis associates Wynton Kelly and Paul Chambers. He became a bandleader only later in his career, starting in the 1980s with an album called So Nobody

In a handful of counties along the rural Oregon border, where late-season rains have done little to sate the parched forests and dusty plains, hundreds of farmers are at risk of having their irrigation water shut off - and watching their crops wither in the field.

The local water agencies served by the project say they may not have water to send to farms beyond next month. The last time irrigation supplies were this scarce in the upper Klamath Basin, 350 miles north of San Francisco, federal marshals were called in to maintain order after angry residents broke through a project head gate in protest. Nineteen years later, the prospect of running out of water arrives as the farm-dependent region…

Trump blocks travel from Brazil after coronavirus cases surge
President Trump on Sunday said the United States would suspend travel from Brazil, after a surge in coronavirus cases made the South American nation one of the world's hotspots. Brazil now has more than 22,000 deaths and 347,000 confirmed cases, the second most after the U.S., which has recorded nearly 100,000 COVID-19 deaths. Trump had already banned some travelers from China, Europe, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Iran, but not from Russia, which has the third highest number of coronavirus cases. White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany called the Brazil restrictions another "decisive action to protect our country." Filipe Martins, who advises Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro on international affairs, said the travel ban wasn't "anything specifically against Brazil. Ignore the hysteria of the press." The ban will go into effect Thursday, and will not apply to legal permanent residents or their spouses, parents, or children. The ban does not apply to trade. Read more at The Associated Press.

'Dominic Cummings Was Lurking Here': Barnard Castle joke blue plaque pokes fun at alleged visit
A fake blue plaque has appeared in Barnard Castle poking fun at Dominic Cummings' alleged visit to the town during the lockdown period. The prime minister's chief advisor travelled to County Durham in March to self-isolate with his family while official guidelines warned against long-distance journeys, apparently because he feared that he and his wife would be left unable to care for their son. Mr Cummings is accused of travelling to Barnard Castle - something he has neither confirmed nor denied - while staying at a property adjacent to his parents' home in Durham. Barnard Castle is around 30 miles from where Mr Cummings was staying, meaning if he had travelled to the town on April 12, it would have been against the lockdown restrictions. The sign on the wall in the town reads: "DOMINIC CUMMINGS WAS LURKING IN THESE PARTS, 12.04.2020."

Why I love sports: Reader responses for Monday, May 25
'It not all about winning or losing' As a coach, it’s easy to point at our competitive nature when trying to explain why sports are so special. It’s true. Coaches love to win. We hate to lose. But the purpose we get into coaching is so much deeper than that. The beauty of athletics is that we get to push kids to their limit and teach them that it’s OK to struggle. We don’t do it in a negative way. We hope to instill a mindset that life, like athletics, is full of struggles, and that pushing through them will only make you stronger on the other side. There is NOTHING better than seeing your former players come back later in life and tell you that the lessons they were taught while competing have made them better

Handbuilt Rolls-Royce Cullinan 1:8 scale model shown
Rolls-Royce recently showcased a 1:8 scale replica of the Cullinan SUV. But in typical Roll-Royce opulence, this model has been entirely hand-built, using many of the same processes that go into the making of an actual Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

Official: U.S. might sanction China over Hong Kong security law
The U.S. is likely to impose sanctions against China if it enacts a new national security law that would erode Hong Kong's autonomy, White House National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien said Sunday. The legislation, announced last week during China's National People's Congress, will allow Beijing to take over in Hong Kong, O'Brien said. That would make it unlikely that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo could certify that the city, a former British colony, had a "high degree" of autonomy, which would result in sanctions against China under the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019, O'Brien said. The comments came as thousands of people gathered in Hong Kong streets to protest the proposed security law, and Hong Kong police fired tear gas to disperse the crowds. Read more at CNBC.

Tafi Mhaka: Europe should pay reparations for colonising Africa
By Tafi Mhaka Rhodes infamously said, "I contend that we are the first race in the world, and that the more of the world we inhabit the better it is for the human race." That perceived superiority inspired heinous colonial crimes and led to the establishment of “Rhodesia”. To Rhodes, conquering Africa appealed to his white supremacist leanings and he found meaning in illogical tropes that justified founding a perverse brand of extractive capitalism. It facilitated the long and reckless extraction of petroleum, copper, chromium, platinum and gold for export to Europe, and enabled colonisers to monopolise land ownership. This while Britain, France and Germany built the political systems that aided economic plunder. Hence, the case for reparations is strong and just: compensating Africa for decades of multifaceted colonial exploitation is both a moral and financial imperative.

Still Here: A story of incarceration and gentrification in the US
Women are the fastest-growing imprisoned population in the United States. Since 1980, the number has increased by 750 percent. In 2017, there were more than 225,060 women in US prisons and jails. Eighty percent of those were mothers and two-thirds were women of colour. But what awaits the roughly two million American women and girls released from prisons and jails each year? According to the Prison Policy Initiative, a US think-tank that researches the effect of mass criminalisation, most policies and programmes for formerly jailed people are still focused on men. This, despite the fact that formerly imprisoned women - particularly women of colour - are more likely to experience homelessness and unemployment and are less likely to have a high school education than men who have been released from jail or prison.

Trump threatens to move RNC out of North Carolina over coronavirus restrictions
President Trump in a series of tweets Monday morning threatened to pull the 2020 Republican National Convention out of North Carolina. Trump tweeted that North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper (D) is "still in shutdown mood" and said he would be forced to move the convention if not "immediately" given an answer as to whether coronavirus restrictions will be lifted, allowing "full attendance" in the Spectrum Center arena in Charlotte. Trump's tweets "blindsided" those involved in planning the convention, set to be held in late August, CNN reports. The Spectrum Center arena has a capacity of more than 17,500 people. Vice President Mike Pence reiterated Trump's comments Monday, telling Fox News he looks forward to a swift response from Cooper, and "if need be, moving the national convention to a state that is farther along on reopening and can say with confidence that we can gather there."

Judge finds Florida 'pay-to-vote' system for felons unconstitutional
A federal judge has ruled that a Florida law requiring felons to pay all court fines and fees before they can register to vote was unconstitutional. Judge Robert Hinkle of the United States District Court in Tallahassee wrote that the restrictions amounted to a poll tax that would prevent voting by people who can't afford to pay, The Washington Post reports. "The Twenty-Fourth Amendment precludes Florida from conditioning voting in federal elections on payment of these fees and costs," Judge Hinkle wrote, calling the state law a "pay-to-vote system." Per Hinkle's order, the state must tell felons what they owe and whether they are eligible to vote — if felons don't receive this information within 21 days, they are allowed to register, the Post reports. Republican lawmakers and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) pushed through the law after voters overwhelmingly approved a 2018 constitutional amendment restoring voting rights for felons who have completed their sentences, including probation and parole. A DeSantis spokesperson…
Trump administration promises 100 million coronavirus testing swabs by the end of 2020
The Trump administration sent Congress a national coronavirus testing strategy in time to meet a Sunday deadline, The Washington Post reports, citing a copy of the 80-page "COVID-19 Strategic Testing Plan" it obtained. The report delivered to Congress promises that the federal government will buy 100 million swabs by the end of 2020 and distribute them to states to help them expand testing. The document did not outline federal testing goals for each state; instead it listed testing targets states reported to federal officials for May. Public health officials say broader testing to determine who has been infected with the novel coronavirus and who might have immunity are key to curbing the spread of the outbreak and allowing the economy to fully reopen. The administration plan calls for every state to try to test at least 2 percent of its population in May and June. Read more at The Washington Post. Harold Maass

Joe Biden wears mask in 1st public appearance since March
Biden is back. Former Vice President Joe Biden on Monday made his first public appearance since mid-March as he visited a veterans memorial in Delaware, notably clad in a mask. The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee laid a wreath in honor of Memorial Day, alongside his wife, Jill Biden, who also wore a mask. Biden's choice to follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendation to wear a mask during the coronavirus pandemic is in stark contrast to President Donald Trump, who often refuses to wear masks in public, fearful that he'd look ridiculous. Biden's first outing in two months may serve as a trial run for public events, reports The Associated Press, suggesting he won't spend the remaining five months until the election campaigning from home. While advisers hope to resume campaign activities eventually, they intend to do so "when safety allows, and we will not do that a day sooner," said Biden campaign manager Jen O'Malley Dillon.

WHO temporarily pauses hydroxychloroquine study, citing safety concerns
The World Health Organization is temporarily halting a study on hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine as potential COVID-19 treatments due to safety concerns. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus announced the decision on Monday, after a study published in The Lancet medical journal suggested COVID-19 patients treated with hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine were more likely to die, CNN reports. The drugs were being reviewed as part of the WHO's Solidarity Trial — a coronavirus research effort involving more than 400 hospitals in 35 countries. President Donald Trump last week revealed he takes hydroxychloroquine as a preventative measure against COVID-19, despite there being no evidence of its effectiveness and the FDA cautioning against the drug due to serious side effects including abnormal heart rhythms. Meanwhile Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is touting the other drug halted in the study, chloroquine.

UK coronavirus death toll rises by 121 up to 36,914 - the second-smallest increase since March
A further 121 people in the UK have died with coronavirus, bringing the total to 36,914. The deaths - which were recorded in the 24-hours to 5pm on Sunday - took place in hospitals, care homes and the wider community. The increase in deaths announced on Monday is the second-lowest 24-hour increase since March, and while Covid-19 deaths and cases are declining, there is often a lag in the figures reported at the weekends and on bank holidays, meaning they do not always offer a full picture of deaths in the period they are from. In the 24-hour period up to 9am on Monday, 73,726 tests were carried out or dispatched, with 1,625 positive results. The Department of Health said "technical difficulties" meant it was unable to provide a figure for the number of people tested in the 24 hours to 9am on Monday. On its website, some 17,473 people were said to have been tested under pillar one of the testing strategy - swab tests at Public Health England labs and NHS hospitals - but the figure for essential worker swab tests…

Libyan Army faces new threat as old foe returns

The terrorist organization said through its official media wing that the attack, which occurred two days ago, was carried out by an explosive device planted at the entrance of the Battalion 628 infantry base, resulting in the destruction of a military vehicle. In the meantime, Reuters news agency quoted the local military commander as saying that the explosives were hidden in a vehicle belonging to the Libyan National Army forces, stressing that the explosion did not result in casualties. This attack is the second of its kind that has targeted the Libyan National Army in the last few days, with a previous attack targeting three locations in the southern part of the country.

Mysterious aircraft approaches Russia’s largest base in Syria: media
BEIRUT, LEBANON (10:40 P.M.) – A mysterious aircraft was discovered a few hours ago near the Russia’s Hmeimim Airbase in western Syria. According to Avia.Pro, the aircraft was likely a Sikorsky MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter, given the data that was presented. “Judging by the data provided by IntelSky, we are talking about the Sikorsky MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter, however, the flight speed of the aircraft, which reaches more than 700 km/hr, is noteworthy, which indicates that the data transmitted in the air were tampered with, since helicopters cannot reach such a high speed, and taking into account flights near the Russian military airbase, experts believe that in this way the United States or the allies of this country are trying to get some information about the situation at the Russian military facility,” the Russian publication said. They would point out that this military chopper belongs to the U.S. Coast Guard; however, they question why would a USCG helicopter fly so close to the Syrian border, especially being…

WBN Vs MOB Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Must win match for both the sides for completely different reasons Although both the sides are on completely opposing ends of the points tally, for both of our competitors today, the three points come bearing equal value. Where a win would serve as colossal impetuous for Werder Bremen in their relegation scrape, for Borussia Monchengladbach, a win would help keep them adrift with a spot in the top 4.Being shunted out of the Champions League spots the last time around with a 3-1 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Monchengladbach saw their four match unbeaten spree be curbed. While the defeat was a disappointing end to the tie for them, a bigger peril was the manner the result came about in.Despite small sparks of brilliance, the side was largely despondent and dreary across the 90 minutes.
